The little Fubao in the deserted village made all the dignitaries in the court go crazy with envy

Chapter 39 She will never let the Lin family get back on its feet!

The first, fourth and seventh days of every month in Wutong Town are market days.

The market day in May is very lively.

The Sifang Pharmacy was the worst hit. The store was packed with people early in the morning, and the crowd formed a long queue outside.

The crowd was full of people.

Someone who didn't know the inside story was shocked and asked, "What's going on? There's a long line outside the pharmacy early in the morning. Why are there so many people seeking medical treatment?"

"Hey, you guys aren't here to see a doctor, you're all here to grab medicine." The one who spoke was the proprietress of the bun shop.

Thanks to the good business of the medicine shop, she sold many more buns in the morning than usual. "Sifang Pharmacy put a new medicine, Baixiangcao, on the market at the beginning of the month. In just three or five days, the name of Baixiangcao spread all over the place, and it was spread by word of mouth by people who had used it."

"No matter how good the medicine is, you can't take it randomly if you are not sick!"

"I can see you haven't been to the market recently, otherwise you wouldn't be able to say that. Baixiangcao is different from ordinary herbs. It can be used to make tea on a daily basis. Hey, hey, hey, if you don't want to buy buns, don't block my stall. I'm still doing business here!"

The proprietress refused to say more.

Her man is still queuing over there, in the middle of the line, and he doesn't know if he can get a turn.

Mr. Fang was very stingy when selling medicinal tea. Apart from using it to prescribe medicine for patients, he would sell no more than half a pound of medicinal tea every day. He also limited the buyers to only 20 grams at a time.

The man who was asking the question was confused by the boss lady's words. He rolled his eyes and moved closer to the line.

Sure enough, he soon heard what he wanted to hear.

"...The axe chopped such a big wound. In the past, it would have taken at least four or five days to heal. This time, the doctor prescribed a medicine pack with Hundred Herbs. Guess what, it healed overnight! The wound healed and scabbed, and new flesh grew!"

"Well, I had some herbs left over from treating hemorrhoids, and I remembered that the old doctor said that the herb could be used to make tea. In order not to waste it, I picked out the herb and made some tea. You won't know how refreshed you feel after drinking it. And my mother, who used to have trouble sleeping at night, slept soundly that night after drinking the tea. Her snoring could be heard in the yard. Hahaha!"

"My eldest grandson doesn't like to eat normally, but after drinking Baixiang Tea, he started to enjoy everything he ate and he gained weight. After drinking it, I realized that Baixiang Grass is really a good thing, and it's not expensive. You can buy one or two taels for twenty copper coins. I line up to buy it every day. If I save up one or two taels, it's enough for me to drink for a month."

"No, Li's second son, why are you queuing up again? Didn't your eldest brother just buy something and leave?"

"He is him and I am me. If he buys it, then I can't buy it? Who complains about having too many Hundred Herbs at home? If you complain, then give me your place in the queue!"

"Get lost! I'm afraid I won't get a turn even if I'm in line!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the pharmacy clerk came out holding a wooden sign that looked very familiar.

The people waiting in line felt their hearts sink and their eyelids began to twitch.

Then I heard the waiter shout, "Today's Hundred Herbs are sold out! Don't queue up, go away!"

"..."

Those who bought it left happily.

The disappointment of not buying it is obvious.

After waiting in line for half the morning, when it was my turn, I wanted to smash the wooden sign and beat up the waiter.

With many complaints, the waiter went into the backyard and complained to the old doctor who was sipping tea from the teapot, "Mr. Fang, people outside are complaining. Ever since the news of the effectiveness of Baixiangcao spread, the front of the pharmacy is crowded with people early in the morning, but we only sell half a pound. If this continues, I'm worried that thieves will break into our pharmacy in the middle of the night and steal."

"I can't steal even if I want to. Four pounds of fresh radix strychnifolia only yield one pound of dried herbs. There are only so many of them. If they are all sold out at once, what will I do if I can't get the full amount of medicine for the patients who need it later?"

The old doctor took a sip of tea and recalled something that still made him angry. "That bastard Jinqianlai took away my 20 kilograms of Hundred-phase Herb along with the basket before I could react! He just ran away after taking it! How shameless! He is so shameless! He is so shameless! He is so shameless for a person of his status! He is not even afraid of losing face just for a few herbs!"

Otherwise, he could have brewed at least five more kilograms of Baixiang tea.

Five pounds!

If he wanted to drink some Baixiang tea, he wouldn't have to search for it and avoid his eldest son for fear of it being snatched away.

As people age, their physical condition gradually deteriorates. They sleep less, have a poor appetite, lack of energy, and have blurred vision... These things are unavoidable.

But after drinking Baixiang Tea for half a month, he was 100% sure of its benefits.

I sleep well at night and have a better appetite. In the morning, when I sit in the pharmacy, I no longer feel drowsy as soon as I sit down. Instead, I feel energetic and my ears and eyes are clear.

Even going to the toilet becomes smoother.

It's like a dead tree coming back to life.

The old doctor took another sip of tea cherishingly, pulling out the money and spitting it out repeatedly in his mind.

He couldn't think about the benefits of Baixiangcao. The more he thought about it, the more he disliked the three words "money comes".

You son of a bitch! You have so much money at home, yet you still steal the old man's things! You have no shame!

The old doctor couldn't sit still any longer, "Ask Fang Yuan to sit in the clinic today. I'm going to be out for a while."

He wants to go to Yuxi Village to take a look.

It has been half a month since I first bought herbs. I'll go over and take a look. Maybe I can get some more from the Lin family...

On the other side of the street in Wutong Town, Jishidiang.

Zeng Yitang walked into the backyard of the pharmacy with a gloomy face, sat down at the Eight Immortals Table and slammed the table and cursed, "That old bastard Fang Zheng revived his half-dying shop with a single herb of Hundred-Angle Herb! In just half a month, he has taken away most of my business!"

Thinking about what I saw today, Sifang Pharmacy was packed with people, while his Jishidiang was deserted.

He stayed in the shop for the whole morning, but no one came in to see a doctor or get medicine.

Quan Gong went to Sifang Pharmacy.

His wife Chen knew he was furious when she saw his attitude. She snorted and sat down next to him, pouring him a cup of tea. "Drink some tea to calm down. This Baixiang Tea is really good. People will buy good things because they are good. Sifang Pharmacy relied on it to make the shop run smoothly and stole our business. It's not easy to suppress it. Why don't we just grab the Baixiang Grass? Is it worth it for you to get so angry?"

Zeng Yitang's eyes lit up and he looked up, "Do you have a solution?"

Chen was proud, "Of course I have. Whenever you encounter a problem, I always find a way to help you solve it."

"The Hundred Xiang Grass is grown by the Lin family of Yuxi Village. Back then, Yu'er broke off her engagement with Lin Jiang, and Yu'er's cousin crippled one of Lin Jiang's hands. The two families have been enemies for a long time. Given that family's stubborn nature, they won't sell the Hundred Xiang Grass to us even if we offer a higher price." Otherwise, he would have gone to the Lin family long ago to buy the medicine at a high price. Why would he be at a loss and have to watch Sifang Pharmacy get up?

"Humph, have you forgotten what my uncle from my mother's side does? As long as he takes action, the Lin family's Hundred Xiang Grass will have to be sold. Are a bunch of country folk worthy of owning treasures? Even if they have them, they can't protect them!" Chen raised her lips and sneered.

At the beginning, she had reluctantly agreed to her daughter's marriage because the Lin family was relatively well-off and Lin Jiang was an ambitious man. But later on, the Lin family's fortunes fell into decline, so she naturally would not let her daughter marry into the family and suffer again.

A few years later, since the Lin family has fallen into the quagmire, they should just lie there obediently! Look up to her Zeng family!

No matter what, she would never let the Lin family get back on its feet!
