Chapter 15 False One Pays Ten
This shop is the largest Chinese medicine store in the city, just the decoration has used more than 300,000 yuan, the Chinese medicine inside is even more dazzling, the closet is hung with beautifully packaged wild ginseng, the most expensive wild ginseng, the unit price will be sold for more than 200,000 yuan.
The wooden barrel outside the store also contains a variety of common Chinese medicines, such as tangerine peel, longan, and oysters, etc., ordinary people rarely come into contact with traditional Chinese medicine, like this to visit the Chinese medicine store, everyone is the first time, looking at those sun-dried reptile skins, Gu Yuxin felt a little scared, but Gu Yuze thought it was fun, and wanted to buy two sun-dried toad skins to play, but Gu Yuxin glared at him before putting down his hand.
Xu Mo handed over the formula he had written in advance to the clerk, and after the clerk read it, he went to grab the medicine, leaving Xu Mo and a few people to look around over there.
To be honest, in fact, Xiao Min felt that Chinese medicine was quite unreliable, and the wild ginseng on the closet was sold for 200,000 yuan, which was too expensive, Xiao Min couldn't help but ask, these are all true and fake.
Gu Yuze felt funny when he heard this, and said: "How can it be fake, isn't it written outside, it's genuine, and one fake pays ten." ”
"Yes, Xu Mo!" Gu Yuze patted Xu Mo on the shoulder and asked Xu Mo to reflect himself.
At this time, Xu Mo took out a large piece of stone honey from the wooden barrel of the Chinese medicine store and looked at it over there.
At this time, the clerk packed all the Chinese medicines that Xu Mo needed into a box, which cost a total of one hundred and twenty yuan, including Xiao Min's one, and the one that Director Wen's mother needed.
When the clerk quoted the price, several children were stunned.
After all, it was 2005, and high school students didn't have much money in their hands, so Xu Mo directly took out 120 yuan to buy medicine, which was a big expense.
What's more, this Chinese medicine was bought for Xiao Min.
Why is it Xu Mo who pays?
Gu Yuxin couldn't help but have such a question in her heart.
In fact, Xu Mo didn't have much money in his hands in high school, and the financial power of Xu Mo's family was in the hands of Xu Mo's mother, his father had two hundred yuan of pocket money every month, and if there were major expenses, he could apply with his mother, and Xu Mo usually didn't have a penny, only when he needed it, his mother would give some change.
This one hundred and two, or today's mother is happy because of the job transfer, Xu Mo took the opportunity to offer to help buy Chinese medicine, and his mother gave two hundred yuan casually.
When giving money, Chen Lirong didn't forget to tell Xu Mo, don't buy expensive, remember to bargain with the boss.
Xu Mo's father was a little more generous, and said: "Now Chinese medicine stores are clearly marked with prices, how can it be possible to bargain?" ”
"You don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt are." Chen Lirong glanced at Xu Zhiyuan.
Xu Mo paid the money and asked casually: "How did you sell this stone honey?" ”
The clerk knew that Xu Mo had the ability to buy, but he didn't underestimate him, and said directly: "This is wild mountain honey picked from the primeval forest of Yunnan, next to the whole mountain, a thick layer, if someone in your family coughs, you can take a little back, just pinch a little and drink it with water, and it will stop coughing immediately." ”
The so-called stone honey is the honey that wild bees pick and dry among the rocks, the piece that Xu Mo is holding in his hand is still a honeycomb dug out directly, and it is stacked layer by layer, which feels very dirty, but it does solidify the amber crystals on it, and it is pure natural at a glance.
The old man has a lot of phlegm, if you drink a little stone honey soaked in water, it is a cough and phlegm.
Xu Mo asked the clerk how much this stone honey cost.
The clerk replied, "Fifty dollars a pound." ”
This price scared a few people who were traveling with Xu Mo, and Xu Mo also felt that it was too expensive, so he put it down casually.
The clerk saw that Xu Mo didn't want it anymore, so he said again: "Seeing that you have bought so many things, if you really want it, it can be cheaper." ”
"How much cheaper?"
"Thirty, what do you think?"
Xu Mo hesitated: "How about twenty?" ”
The clerk glanced at Xu Mo: "Twenty is twenty!" ”
Gu Yuze saw that the fifty yuan thing was sold at twenty, and he consciously picked up a bargain, and said directly: "Give me a pound for twenty!" ”
Gu Yuxin slapped her younger brother and said, "What are you doing with it?" ”
Gu Yuze laughed: "Fifty things are sold for twenty, how can there be such a good thing, let's buy a little and go home and give it to our parents to drink, didn't Xu Mo say it, good things!" ”
Gu Yuxin rolled her eyes, she didn't like her brother's conspicuous appearance.
The clerk sold the goods, and his face was naturally happy, and he wrapped all the stone honey they had picked.
So everyone left the pharmacy with a full load.
Gu Yuze couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, pinched out a small piece from the stone honey and put it in his mouth and smashed it, and couldn't help but say that it was really sweet.
"Sister, taste it, it's sweeter than Alpine sugar!"
Gu Yuxin said: "Didn't you say that you bought it for your parents to make tea?" ”
"Hey, I'll help my parents taste if it's poisonous first, Xu Mo, do you have any other good things, recommend it." Gu Yuze asked Xu Mo.
Xu Mo said: "This stone honey is fake. ”
"Huh?" Gu Yuze was smacking Shi Mi Mei Zizi in his mouth, and he was startled when he heard this, and quickly spit out Shi Mi: "Fake? What does it mean to be fake? ”
Gu Yuxin was also taken aback and asked Xu Mo why he said that.
Xu Mo told Gu Yuze that there was nothing wrong with eating.
"This is made by feeding the bees with brown sugar, if you don't believe it, go back and soak in water and taste it, you will know, it is ordinary sugar soaked water." Xu Mo said very firmly.
Gu Yuze frowned when he heard this, turned around and looked at the Chinese medicine store in Nuoda, and said, "Such a big store sells fakes!" ”
With that, Gu Yuze planned to go back.
Xu Mo stopped him and asked him what he was doing.
"I'm going to look for him, he didn't say that he would pay ten for a lie." Gu Yuze said angrily.
"You only bought 20 yuan of stone honey, and you will lose 200 yuan, and people may not pay you attention to you when they see you as a child." Xu Mo said.
"I," Gu Yuze was speechless for a while, and muttered, is this just the way I suffer a dumb loss.
"What do you have to suffer dumb losses, and this is not what you pay." Gu Yuxin said that when they gave money together just now, Xu Mo gave it together, although Gu Yuxin said no, Xu Mo said it was okay.
At this time, Gu Yuze was even more angry and said, "Then you can't let your brother-in-law suffer!" ”
was reminded by Xu Mo like this, Gu Yuze's title was changed.
Gu Yuxin's face turned red, and she stretched out her hand to hit Gu Yuze again: "What are you talking about!" ”
Xu Mo said, although Shi Mi is fake, but there is no big problem with taking it back to make tea and drinking, if you don't want it, give it to me, I have a lot of use here.
It doesn't sound like authentic stone honey, plus Xu Mo said that he was useful.
Gu Yuze didn't even think about it, so he gave it to Xu Mo.
The four of them stopped by for a while, and when they arrived at the intersection, they separated because their families were not together.
When they separated, Gu Yuxin looked at Xu Mo and wanted to say something goodbye, but she didn't know how to speak.
And Xu Mo also looked at Gu Yuxin at the same time.
The two looked at each other, both wanting to say something, but at the same time they tacitly agreed that they didn't say anything.
