Dressed as a little farmer's lucky treasure, God sends blessings and asks for forgiveness
Chapter 65 There is something in the corner
To be honest, they didn't know whether they could sell this thing or not, but since the young man was able to carry it here and said that his grandfather was sick, he must be in urgent need of money. If they just carried it to the town like this, what would they do if the pharmacy in the town refused to accept it?
Wang Ronghua was just being kind and just wanted to help the child. Every family has difficulties sometimes.
"Really? That's great." The young man looked at Wang Ronghua happily.
Ten cents per catty means there are 120 catties, which means there is one tael and two cents of silver.
Zhao Guocheng was a little worried, but he felt relieved after thinking about it. It was no big deal if he lost money, and it could be considered as helping the young man.
I can still afford to lose more than one or two taels of silver.
So Zhao Guocheng took out money from his pocket and gave it to the young man without saying a word.
"Thank you. My name is Ah Man. I live in the neighboring Shiling Village. Thank you very much."
Ah Man took the silver gratefully and placed it solemnly on his chest.
He was also considerate enough to pour out the dirt from the backpack and cloth bag before leaving.
Zhao Guocheng and others left and looked at Wang Ronghua.
"Wife, can this thing be sold for money? I feel like I'll lose money," said Zhao Guocheng.
"Let's just take the loss, just consider it as a good deed. His grandfather needs medicine, and the child looks no more than 20 years old, which is a rare age. He looks like a bag of bones, and his family must not have enough food to eat. It doesn't matter if we lose money, just consider it as the money we spent on buying things." Wang Ronghua said.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Once or twice is no problem." Zhao Guocheng nodded.
The two men were studying the lump of earth, and they had no idea how much they could get from selling it, so they were prepared to lose money.
They just piled it up under the eaves and nothing happened.
When Zhao Shiying woke up, the first thing she did was to ask whether the horseshoe rhubarb had been received.
Only after Wang Ronghua gave an affirmative answer did Zhao Shiying feel satisfied.
The next day.
After breakfast, they prepared to go to the market.
Today's ox cart is full again. The main goods are mushroom meat sauce, hand-peeled bamboo shoots, fresh mushrooms, fungus, some seasonal wild fruits, a lot of walnuts and almonds, and a pile of earthen lumps, water chestnuts and rhubarb received yesterday.
After arriving at the market, I went to Yuelai Restaurant to deliver the goods first.
Hand-peeled bamboo shoots, mushroom meat sauce, some fresh black fungus, mushrooms, walnuts and almonds, and most importantly, a dozen matsutake mushrooms. These are good things, and how could Shopkeeper Peng miss them? By the time the delivery was completed, half of the ox cart was gone.
Then I went to Chen's house to deliver mushroom meat sauce, fresh black fungus and mushrooms, and also asked for some wild fruits and walnuts.
As a result, only a small amount of wild fruits, walnuts, almonds, and five or six cans of mushroom meat sauce were left. The fresh fungus was gone, but there were still more than ten pounds of mushrooms. The most left was the pile of earth.
"Let's sell these mountain products first and then go to the pharmacy?" said Wang Ronghua.
"Okay, let's go. I don't think this pile of dirt is worth much anyway." Zhao Guocheng said and continued to drive the ox cart to the market ahead.
When I arrived at the stalls, I found that there were quite a few people selling mountain products today.
Especially mushrooms and fungus. Although the varieties are not as many as those here, they are all picked up from the mountains by farmers and they all look very clean.
Zhao Guocheng's heart skipped a beat. He wondered if he would take today's mountain products home with him.
But just as I put my things in place, someone came over and asked.
"Are you the one selling bamboo shoots before? Why don't you have bamboo shoot slices for sale?" This person had bought bamboo shoot slices from Zhao Guocheng before, and he said with a bit of regret that he didn't see them this time.
"All the bamboo shoots are sold out, but we still have other things. The fresh mushrooms and black fungus are of the best quality. And these fruits, if you want them, I'll give them to you at a discount." Zhao Guocheng said.
"Okay, give me some of everything." This man was also generous. He ordered two kilograms of various foods at once, and also asked for two small cans of mushroom meat sauce.
Zhao Shiying was now being held by Zhao Shimin and sitting under a tree. There was an ox cart next to them. The trees provided shade, so it wasn't so hot.
Similarly, the things in the ox cart had to be guarded, so naturally they were all handed over to Zhao Shimin.
Half an hour later, all the things I brought were finally sold out, although they were sold at a lower price today than before.
The main reason is that there are too many goods today, and they will definitely not be sold out if they are not sold at a lower price.
It seems that this is not a long-term solution.
After packing up their things, they planned to go to the pharmacy.
I chose a time-honored pharmacy that is honest and trustworthy.
"Are you here to see a doctor or get medicine?" a pharmacist came forward and asked.
"We don't want to see a doctor or buy medicine. I want to ask if you, the shopkeeper, buy medicinal materials. I have a batch of medicinal materials to sell." Zhao Guocheng said, looking around.
"What medicinal herbs are those? Let me see." The medicine boy said and looked into the backpack.
"This looks a bit like...a horse hoof..." The medicine boy thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out.
"This is called Horse-hoof Rhubarb. Ask your boss to come out and take a look and he will know the answer." Zhao Guocheng said.
"Hey, wait a moment." The medicine boy said and went to the backyard to find the shopkeeper.
Wait for the shopkeeper to come out and look at Zhao Guocheng.
"You want to sell me some medicinal herbs, horse-hoof rhubarb?" The shopkeeper was very surprised.
"Yes, this medicinal material is very rare. I was lucky to come across it. Please take a look." Zhao Guocheng didn't need to draft his lies now.
"Bring it in and let me see it." The shopkeeper nodded.
Zhao Guocheng carried a backpack and walked into the backyard with Wang Ronghua, carrying a cloth bag together, followed by the children.
Zhao Shiying was hugged by Zhao Shimin.
She was very interested in this pharmacy. So this was the pharmacy.
But she had no specific idea about the pharmacy.
The shopkeeper picked up a lump of earth and began to look at it. He then cut a piece with a knife, pinched a little to taste and smell it.
In Zhao Guocheng's opinion, the shopkeeper was using a seemingly professional method to identify whether this was horseshoe rhubarb.
"It is indeed horseshoe rhubarb. For this quality, I will give you fifty cents per pound. Since this is a raw herb and has not been processed, the price will naturally be lower." said the shopkeeper.
"Fifty cents?" Zhao Guocheng was surprised. He thought he would lose money.
Wang Ronghua heaved a sigh of relief at this moment. Finally, she didn't have to lose money. She had been worried for a whole day and now she finally felt relieved.
The other children were also shocked. It was so valuable, more valuable than mountain products.
[Mother, it costs sixty cents per pound.] Zhao Shiying suddenly spoke up.
Zhao Guocheng, Wang Ronghua and others all looked at Zhao Shiying at the same time.
They all heard the voice in their hearts.
Another ten cents?
Wang Ronghua pondered for a moment and said, "Boss, this stuff is not easy to come by. How about you add some more? If I come across medicinal materials in the future, I will come to your pharmacy again. We can consider it as taking care of each other's business. How do you think?"
After Wang Ronghua finished speaking, the shopkeeper was still hesitating.
"Mom and Dad, how about we go to another pharmacy to ask?" Zhao Shihui asked in a low voice, thinking that no one else could hear him, but in fact the shopkeeper heard it clearly.
It was because of what I heard that I nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then I'll add ten more cents. If you find any medicinal herbs from the mountains in the future, just send them to me. My last name is Wu, so you can just call me Manager Wu." Manager Wu said with a smile.
"Okay, thank you."
Then I weighed it and found that it was two pounds less.
I guess the soil on the clod has fallen off and there is still moisture.
Because it has been in the sun since yesterday, it has naturally lost more water.
"One hundred and eighteen catties, sixty cents per catty, that's seven taels of silver plus eighty cents, is that correct?" Shopkeeper Wu looked at Zhao Guocheng.
The person who answered was indeed Wang Ronghua.
"Yes, thank you, Shopkeeper Wu."
After settling the money, Zhao Guocheng left Tongrentang with his wife and children.
I didn't expect that I would lose money, but in the end I actually made a lot of money.
There were stars in Zhao Guocheng's eyes, that was great.
Several people were chatting and laughing as they prepared to go back. Of course, Zhao Shiying pointed at the meat stall as she left. She already knew where she could buy meat.
So once you point, everyone knows they have to buy meat.
After buying the meat, they got on the ox cart and prepared to go home.
Just as he was about to leave the town, Zhao Guocheng's eyes were pierced by the sunlight and the light refracted by a white object in the corner of the wall.
"What is that? It's so dazzling." Zhao Guocheng blocked it with his hand.
Wang Ronghua was puzzled: "No!"
Several children looked around.
[Dad, there is something under the corner.] Zhao Shiying said immediately.
Zhao Guocheng immediately stopped the ox cart to the side of the road, then got off and went to look for it in the corner.
