Isn't this just like the entrance exam: "So how much is the tuition fee here, big brother?"

"Twenty taels of silver a year." When Shen Han said this, he lowered his head, and the light in his eyes dimmed.

Twenty taels of silver were indeed not cheap, one tael of silver was two hundred wen, and these twenty taels were enough for the families in their village to live on for three years.

If there was more land and the grain could be produced more, four years would be enough if they lived frugally. However, the annual tuition fee of Hongru Academy would cover their living expenses for three or four years.

"Brother, are there any other academies in our county?"

Shen Han returned to his normal expression: "Yes, there are a few more."

"So how much is their salary?"

"It should be around ten taels."

It really deserves to be the best academy, twice as expensive as the average academy. But Shen Li looked at the gate, which was just a little taller and wider, not gorgeous: "Brother, have you ever been inside this academy?"

"No, but my father has been there and he said it's very elegant. This is also the college he wants to come to."

"Since this is the best college in the county, naturally many students want to study here."

"Yeah, let's go quickly, we've been delayed for so long." Shen Han calmed himself down, turned his back, looked at the pedestrians on the street, then went down the stairs and blended in with them.

Shen Li looked at his ambitious look and thought that he must work hard to help him get into Hongru Academy. With his talent and knowledge, he should have no problem passing the teaching examination.

The only problem is money, but anything that can be solved with money is not a problem.

The two people returned to the main road from the front and soon arrived at Baohe Hall at the corner.

"Little girl, you're here." Doctor Liu greeted her warmly.

Shen Li looked at his smiling face with wrinkles all over it. What was there to not understand? The prescription must have worked and the man came back to get medicine.

"Doctor Liu, I see your pharmacy is still here in good condition. Did my prescription work?"

"Yes, that man came early this morning and said that he slept well these past two days. Although he still can't sleep like a normal person, it's much better than before. He has been waiting for you here just now and wanted to thank you in person. Since you didn't come, he left first because he had something to do."

"I'm in a hurry so I'll waste some time. He's still taking the medicine for too short a time. It will take at least seven days to see obvious effects. Doctor Liu, you can continue to prescribe the medicine for him according to my prescription until he is completely cured. You can stop using it. In fact, this medicine is for external use and can be used for health preservation. It doesn't have to be used only when there is a problem. It can be used when a person is in a bad mood, irritable, or under too much pressure. So do you think my prescription is a treasure?"

"Little girl, your recipe is a good one. I know it even if you don't tell me. Tell me how much you want?"

Shen Li didn't know how much this recipe was worth, so she considered it for a moment and said, "Five taels."

Seeing that Doctor Liu did not agree directly, but started to think about it, Shen Li was a little confused. Is this too much or too little?

Shen Han was confused as he listened, but the five taels of silver still shocked him a little.

"Little girl, this price is not low, but as a doctor, I cannot let go of a good prescription. If you have any good prescriptions in the future, you can come to me."

In fact, there is no exclusive patent here. It’s just that every doctor has his own medication habits and his own drug combinations, that is, prescriptions.

If Doctor Liu secretly used Shen Li's prescription, there would be nothing she could do.

But as a doctor, I have my own pride, and coupled with the constraints of my character and morality, I generally won't secretly use other people's prescriptions, unless those medical skills are not very good, or those people are opportunistic and have no moral bottom line.

Shen Li heard him agree and realized that he was a qualified and good doctor: "Doctor Liu, I won't let you lose money." After saying that, she took out the Ganoderma lucidum from the basket: "Take a look, how much do you want for this Ganoderma lucidum?"

When he saw the Ganoderma lucidum, Doctor Liu's eyes widened. He quickly walked to Shen Li, took the Ganoderma lucidum from her hand, and looked at it left and right.

Then he exclaimed, "Not bad, this Ganoderma lucidum must be a hundred years old. Where did you pick it up? I haven't heard of a hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum appearing anywhere in recent years. It's a rare medicinal herb."

"I was lucky. I found it in the mountains."

Doctor Liu held the Ganoderma lucidum with great care. Which doctor could refuse good medicinal herbs?

At this time, he looked at Shen Li again: "This Ganoderma is not that rare in our county near the mountains. For ordinary Ganoderma to have better medicinal properties, it must be more than 30 years old. Yours is rare in terms of age. Ganoderma that is several decades old usually costs about 20 taels, and yours that is 100 years old costs about 50 taels. Of course, I'm talking about the price I paid for it. If I sell it, it will definitely be higher than this."

Shen Li didn't know whether the price he mentioned was a lie to her or not, but it sounded very sincere: "I'll discuss it with my eldest brother."

Doctor Liu smiled and said, "The little girl is quite cunning. I didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can go to other pharmacies to ask."

"Doctor Liu, I'm so young, isn't it normal that I can't make decisions? Of course I have to discuss it with the adults at home, but I didn't say you lied to me."

Doctor Liu kept smiling and gestured for invitation.

Shen Li pulled Shen Han aside and whispered, "Brother, do you think this price is okay? Is he deceiving me?"

Shen Han was a little embarrassed. His job was to keep an eye on her and worry that she would be cheated, but now this Ganoderma lucidum could be sold for so much money.

He had never seen so much money, so he didn't know whether the price was right or not.

In the past, people in their village had picked up Ganoderma lucidum, but I only heard that it was sold for a few taels of silver. I have never heard of anyone selling it for so much money. It seems that the Ganoderma lucidum they have should be of very low age. "I'm ashamed. Big brother doesn't understand the market either. How about we go to other houses to ask?"

"This is not good. If I collect herbs in the future, I plan to sell them here. If I go to other places to ask now, will we still be able to cooperate in the future?" Shen Li said worriedly.

"Yes, I think this doctor is quite sincere. He doesn't seem to be lying."

Shen Li thought about him buying his prescription, which showed that Doctor Liu was a good person, so he turned around and said with a smile: "Doctor Liu, I think you are a good person, so you won't cheat me. I will sell this Ganoderma lucidum for fifty taels."

"How can I fool you? If you go to other places and ask, you will be exposed. But I do have a problem. As you can see, I am a small pharmacy. I don't have that much cash. Do you think I can..."
