Chapter 14 Lin Su'e
The city of Yuezhou in front of you, the urn city on the east and west sides has already become a decoration, ten miles by the city, the river network is intertwined, and a large number of farmland villages are distributed.
The dirt road is difficult to walk, Kou Li hurried last night, it was still late, Ben was still having a headache where to rest, I didn't think that there were a large number of houses outside the city for the accommodation of the foot merchants, but it saved a lot of effort.
Early the next morning, as soon as the city gate opened, the traffic was busy, and the transaction was so prosperous that he, a modern person, was a little surprised.
Kou Li also understood why so many courtyard villages outside the city must have been squeezed out of the city by the emerging business industry.
'Housing prices in the city must be expensive,' was Kouli's reflexive thought.
However, he also found that the architectural style here is completely different from the Jiangning Mansion where he was born, the houses are tall, and most of the gables on both sides are more than five feet higher than the beams.
Kou Li turned his head around and understood that there were many thieves and storms in the coastal sea, if it was like the brick bungalow in Jiangning Mansion, I am afraid it would have been destroyed long ago.
In the west of the city, the scene has changed again, and a large number of shops and shops have been connected into a group, classified and divided into alleys, and a commercial area has been formed.
Kou Li turned around and walked into a Tongxintang pharmacy that seemed to be the largest, the guy was dozing off in front of the counter, his eyes swept away, and he suddenly said impatiently: "Roll on, this is a pharmacy not a grain store, begging to go elsewhere, don't delay our business." β
Kou Li frowned, and said lightly: "Why, I can't come to do business?"
"It's up to you, a victim of a flooded home, don't think about buying cheap medicine, we are all high-quality here......"
The guy farted in his mouth and looked at the other man, skinny, with bulging cheekbones, wearing a white robe with a shampoo and white hair, and there seemed to be a fishy smell on his body, well, there was no doubt that he must be a refugee.
When the scolding came to the place where it started, the guy was just about to say something more, his eyes bulged, and where was the person in front of him, it was obviously a big white-fronted insect with hanging eyes, swaying his body, and biting down with a big mouth.
"Ah!!" The man's face turned blue and pale, his heart was beating directly, his body stiffened with fear, his legs were weak, and he fell to the ground, unable to recover for a long time.
It wasn't until the sound of knocking on the table woke him up that he found that the poor ghost was looking at him condescendingly, and said calmly: "This is the medicinal herb I want, you can calculate the price for me first." β
After half a pillar of incense, Kou Licai Shi Ran left, but he did not buy medicinal materials in this Tongxin Hall, because he found that the price of medicines here was half higher than the market price, and no matter how rich he was, he would not be wronged.
As for the guy's snobbish face, he didn't take it to heart, and he just used 'tiger pounce' to scare the other party.
"Dead ghost, I really thought I could afford it!" the guy scolded indignantly, feeling very embarrassed, why did he kneel just now.
"Ah He, what's the situation?" a fat middle-aged man walked down, with an onion nose, mouse eyes, and a six-sided brocade hat, and he didn't look good.
"It's okay, the shopkeeper, it's just a beggar here," Ah He swallowed and foamed.
"Then go out with me, after the flood, the cost price of medicinal materials has risen by two percent, I see that little girl's skin is quite uncomfortable, how good it would be if this bit of hard energy was used in bed," Zhang Feizai's eyes flashed with *** eyes.
Ah He couldn't help but feel sad for the little lady, even if the other party was a well-known female Bodhisattva and little Mazu in Yuezhou City, but in these years, reputation can't be eaten.
The fat boy and Ah He walked along the medicine shop street to the end, and then turned a corner, in an inconspicuous corner, only to see an extremely small pharmacy, the faΓ§ade is only the width of a person, but there are some poor ghosts coming and going, full of gratitude.
"Su'e is a good girl, without her medicine, my old ghost would have died a long time ago. β
"And my good boy, who was swollen by the seawater, and also lost Lin Su'e, the golden needle was so poked, and he was deflated, and his skills were amazing!"
"Auntie, go back and fry this medicine for half an hour, and you can definitely cure the disease. β
Hearing the jasmine-like voice, Zhang Feizai couldn't help but laugh strangely, "Sister Su'e, don't come out to meet the old brother yet." β
The door curtain opened, and a beautiful face with slight eyebrows poked out from it, clear soup and plain noodles, which could not hide its quality.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, what are you doing here," the voice was mixed with unconcealed disgust.
"Hey, what Sister Su'e said, can't I come to see you with my relationship?"
"If it's okay, please go back, my shop is small and the temple is small, and I can't accommodate your big Buddha," Lin Su'e gestured and wanted to close the door.
"Something, of course there's something," Zhang Feizai said with a smile: "Come and talk to your sister, the trivial matter of raising the rent." β
"It's going up again," Lin Su'e turned pale and said strongly: "Shopkeeper Zhang, the rent has been increased three times in the past six months, there is no such reason in the world." β
"Yes, why not, this land belongs to my Zhang Fat Boy, Lao Tzu is the rule, Lao Tzu is the truth!" Zhang's shopkeeper's voice turned again, and he smiled: "Of course, if Sister Su'e is willing to be a fat man, everything is easy to discuss." β
After speaking, her eyes swept up and down lightly, her waist was light, her chest was bulging, and her thorn hairpin skirt was worn on her, and she couldn't hold back her beautiful figure.
Especially the dignified face comparable to Guanyin in the temple, if it is pressed under the body, it will definitely have some fun.
Thinking of this, Zhang Feizai only saw a stream of heat gushing out from below, and the big blue pants almost didn't cover the straight kidney.
Lin Su'e bit her teeth and said in a trembling voice: "It's a big deal, I won't rent this store." β
"Don't rent, it's okay, the rent for three months, shouldn't it be cleared, sister, you entertain so many patients a day, what is this little money to you, this medical hall has been open for three months!"
Even Ah He couldn't help but sigh, where do the poor have the money to see a doctor, it is good if they can not lose money, especially if the shopkeeper has done such things, let alone three months, he can't afford to pay for a month.
It's a pity, Lin Su'e is such a beautiful girl, and she is about to be eaten by Zhang Feizi's pig, God is really blind!
Ah He was secretly indignant, it would be nice if it was replaced by himself.
Just when Lin Su'e was embarrassed, a clear voice suddenly sounded.
"Are you guys selling medicine?"
In ancient times, pharmacies and medical clinics were actually the same thing, and their businesses were largely combined, except that the former mainly sold medicines, while the latter focused on curing diseases.
It is not unheard of when I came to the hospital to grab medicine.
Lin Su'e barely squeezed out a smile, the one in front of her, it seems that she hasn't eaten for several days, and she should also be a poor person who has been washed away by the waves.
Ah He's pupils shrank, he knew this guy, the dead ghost who could turn into a big worm, and his legs were a little weak when he thought of the bloody mouth that bit him.
"Is there any illness in your family, it's better to come here to see in person, rest assured, it doesn't cost much to see here. β
"Yes, no," Zhang Fatboy sneered, it's all at this time, this stupid woman still cares about others, she was really stunned by the signboard of 'Little Mazu', and when she entered the door, she must be well organized.
This world is the way of money, not the way of people.
"I wrote a list, you can take a look, how many eligible medicinal materials you have here. β
Lin Su'e was stunned, took the note, this 'poor man' can still write, and if you look closely, although this person is dressed simply, he has an indescribable temperament.
"List. The other party reminded.
Lin Su'e's face turned red, she was a girl who had not yet come out of the cabinet, how could she stare at a man directly, she swept it subconsciously, and immediately covered her mouth, her five fingers were green, and she seemed to be able to see through the skin.
"What's wrong, what's wrong, is someone prescribing a prescription, or buying a banned drug, that's not okay," subconsciously, Zhang Feizai already regarded Lin Su'e as his concubine.
The concubine's medical hall is my Lao Zhang's medical hall, and the concubine's business is my Lao Zhang's business, so I can't let her be so stupid again.
The fat head rubbed over and took a look, Rao is level is not good, and he can also see that this character is excellent, at least even if he practices for another thirty years, he can't practice this word.
But his focus has long been not on this word, but on the dense collection of precious medicinal materials.
A hundred years of magnolia, three or two dollars
More than 30 years of hanging soup old ginseng, four roots
Heterogeneous dragon sunflower, twenty-five
The black bear is blind and has two pairs of guts
Ten tiger bones
......
Even so, Zhang Feizai only looked at a small part, and there was a large list under the list, but he didn't have time to take a closer look, and he was blocked by his palm.
"Can it be matched?" Kou Li asked, these medicinal materials were one of the three tonic prescriptions, one of which was called the Ten Tonic Jade Cream, of course, the number had increased or decreased, although the possibility was very small, but it was not certain that someone would be able to see anything, he was more willing to take precautions.
"It's possible to make it up, but it takes time, and this money-" Lin Su'e said embarrassedly, even if she sold her store, it is estimated that she will not be able to make up the cost price.
"I can pay the deposit upfront. β
The fist-sized silver ingots were lined up ten at once, and the eyes of those present were straight, and the first thing Kou Li did when he came to the city was to find the silver number and turn the thousand taels of silver tickets open.
This is really thanks to that Zhou Caobao, although it is said that he is timid, weak-willed, greedy for life and afraid of death, but it is not without merits.
Rich, capricious.
If you say give a thousand, it is a thousand, and a penny is a lot.
Kou Li likes to deal with this kind of local tyrant, according to today's price level, this thousand taels of silver is almost the purchasing power of millions in the previous life, and he will spill it out without blinking, and it is estimated that his family is also rich at the level of 'half city' and 'half river'.
"This, this master, this big list, if you let the villain come, we are a century-old brand in Tongxintang, and the quality of the medicinal materials is top-notch," Zhang Feizai swallowed several mouthfuls of spit one after another, if this list is eaten, it is sure that his mouth is full of oil, and no matter how ruthless he is, maybe even half of it can be caught.
What's more, if you let this Lin Su'e eat this list, don't say three months, a year's rent is nothing.
"Yes, but this guy of yours said I can't afford your family's high-quality medicine," Kou Li said, with a glance.
"You-" Zhang Fat's angry skin was about to explode, and he turned around and glared angrily at Ah He, who was already half-paralyzed, he had the heart to kill, and he just wanted to make amends, but was stopped by the other party.
"Give you a day, I'll come over tomorrow to get the medicine," Kou Li glanced at the white and tender little lady who was already sluggish, and suddenly said: "Doing good deeds is actually the same as doing bad things, both of them are about means." β
