Chapter 21: Gathering (1)

After the old doctor left, Jiang Jiujiu also got up and said goodbye, "Brother Ze, Feng Gongzi, Uncle Liu, we will also leave first." ”

"September, please stay!" Nangong Ze suddenly called.

"Anything else?" September asked?

"I just want to thank you, and talk about future cooperation."

"That's no need, I've already talked to Uncle Liu about cooperation, and it's been so long since we've been out, so we'll leave first. You'd better have a few days of rest! After Jiang Jiujiu refused, he turned around and left with his younger brothers and sisters carrying the basket on his back.

Street......

The four sisters and brothers first went to the street to shop, bought a few sugar gourds, and then went to Rongji Pharmacy.

"Anyone?" Entering the pharmacy, Jiang Jiujiu found that today's pharmacy was very deserted.

"Yes, yes, yes." A hairy head emerged from behind the counter.

"You're not Dr. Liu's medicine boy Xiaomi! Why are you free again today? Jiang Jiujiu looked at Xiaomi and asked suspiciously.

"Who are you?" Xiaomi touched her head and looked at the brothers and sisters in front of her suspiciously.

"We used to sell medicinal herbs, is Dr. Liu here?" Jiang Jiujiu explained.

"Doctor Liu is in the back hall, I'll call, you wait a minute." After speaking, the medicine boy walked into the passage on the side, opened the door curtain, and went to the back.

After a while, Dr. Liu came......

"Long waiting!" Doctor Liu came out from behind and said with a smile, nodding to Jiang Jiujiu as a salute.

"It's okay, it's good for Dr. Liu to come in." Jiang Jiu hugged his fists and replied with a salute and asked.

"It's been idle lately! This is not conscripted to fight wars, minor illnesses do not seek medical treatment, and they keep the money in case of any misfortune. This medicinal herb was also bought by the army, "most of it." Dr. Liu said about the recent situation.

"In this way, it just so happens that I brought some anti-inflammatory and hemostatic herbs this time, and they have all been concocted." Jiang Jiujiu said.

"Oh! Just show it to me. Doctor Liu looked at Jiang Jiujiu and said.

"Okay!" Jiang Jiujiu turned around and took out the medicinal herbs in the back basket. "I brought the medicine this time to have white grass root, large thistle, small thistle, arborvitae leaves, locust flower, black lotus, iron amaranth, elm, madder, crane grass, mugwort leaves, ground brocade grass, curly cypress, pig ling, honeysuckle."

Jiang Jiujiu showed the concocted medicinal materials to Dr. Liu one by one.

"Well, good, good, good!" Doctor Liu said three in a row, and then asked the medicine boy to weigh them separately, and each medicinal material was purchased for forty wen and one tael, because the medicinal materials were concocted, so he gave an extra 10 wen and one tael.

……

After leaving the Rongji Pharmacy Jiang Jiu, a few people then went to the rice grain shop and bought 20 catties of japonica rice and 20 catties of white noodles. When the younger siblings are growing up, they can't always eat coarse grains, they have to add some fine grains.

Sell more white noodles or want to wait a few days for the twins to make cakes for their birthdays, steamed buns, dumplings, pastries......

I went out of the rice grain store and went to the grocery store.

Jiang Jiu took his younger siblings into the grocery store, looked at the spices placed there and asked, "Shopkeeper, how do you sell your sugar?" ”

"Exquisite white sugar, 20 wen per catty; coarse sugar, 15 wen per catty; red cane sugar, 15 wen per catty; Maltose, 10 yuan a catty, I don't know which one you want? A middle-aged man with a big belly came over and explained.

"Oh, then you can bring me two catties of delicate white sugar, a catty of red cane sugar and half a catty of maltose." Jiang Jiujiu thought about it and said.

"Huh! Good. Girl, do you need anything else? Our shop is also an old store, and the quality is absolutely good, although we dare not guarantee everything, but most of the things can still be bought. After the grocery store owner filled Jiang Jiujiu with sugar, he asked Jiang Jiujiu if there was anything else he needed.

"Let's see!" Jiang September returned.

"Huh! Okay, you'll see," the boss said.

"Sister, why do we buy so much sugar?" Jiang Haoyu looked at Jiang Jiujiu and asked suspiciously.

"Of course it's eaten, and the sugar at home will be gone." Jiang Jiujiu explained.

"Can't you finish eating so much?" Jiang Haoyu was still puzzled.

At this time, Jiang Haochen said on the side: "The eldest sister should be used to make candied fruit and jam!" ”

"Jam, jam is delicious!" Jiang Xue said on the side, her face full of aftertaste.

"Oooh!" Jiang Haoyu understood in seconds.

After Jiang Jiujiu looked around, he called the boss.

"Boss, how do you sell this salt?" Jiang Jiujiu asked.

"Salt costs 30 wen a catty." The boss returned.

"Then how do you sell this peppercorn?" Jiang Jiujiu asked again.

"Sichuan pepper 5 Wen one tael." The boss replied.

"So, how do you sell these peppers?" Jiang Jiujiu pointed to the chili pepper and asked.

"These chili peppers are also 5 yuan a tael." The boss patiently replied.

"Boss, give me another pound of salt, three taels of peppercorns, and three taels of peppers." Jiang Jiujiu said.

"Huh! Okay, is there anything else I need? "The boss asked again after loading the salt, peppercorns, and chili peppers.

"Well, then let's have a small jar of soybean oil, vinegar, and cabbage." Jiang Jiujiu said.

"Okay! Wait! After the boss finished speaking, he ran to the back of the counter and fetched a small jar of soybean oil, vinegar and rapeseed oil, "Girl, this is what you want." ”

"Hmm." Jiang Jiujiu took the soybean oil, vinegar and rapeseed oil handed by the boss and put them in the back basket.

"How much does the boss cost?" Jiang Jiujiu asked.

"Two catties of delicate white sugar, 40 yuan; a pound of red cane sugar, 15 yuan; Half a pound of maltose, 5 cents. a pound of salt, 30 yuan; three taels of peppercorns, 15 yuan; Three taels of chili peppers, 15 cents. soybean oil, a small jar of 12 cents; Vinegar, a small jar is also 12 yuan, rapeseed oil, a small jar is 30 yuan. A total of 174 cents. The grocery store owner stood aside and crackled with an abacus, and finally gave a total price of 174 yuan.

Jiang Jiujiu took out the money from his arms and counted 174 yuan to the owner of the grocery store. "Boss, can you count them?"

After counting the money, the grocery owner smiled and said, "Yes, yes!" ”

After Jiang Jiujiu paid the money, he took his younger siblings out of the grocery store with a basket on his back. The boss said with a smile on his face: "Girl, go slowly, welcome to come again next time!" ”

Out of the grocery store......

Next, I went to the butcher shop and bought a piece of meat. You don't need to buy more of this, Jiang Jiujiu is also good at hunting, but he doesn't lack meat to eat, just buy less and keep the dumplings. Jiang Jiujiu's back basket was already full, so he put the meat in Jiang Haochen's back basket.

"Eldest sister, give me some of the things in your basket, it's so heavy, you're too tired to carry it." Jiang Haochen stretched out his hand and put the sugar in his back basket, so that Jiang Jiujiu's burden could also be reduced.

Jiang Haochen still wanted to put the white noodles in his basket, but Jiang Jiujiu didn't do it, "Forget it, we still have a lot of things to buy." I'll have you on my back for a while. ”

In this way, the four sisters and brothers walked and began to shop......
