The beginning of the counterattack! The time-traveling boss is famous in Beijing
Chapter 51 Meeting an old friend again
Half an hour later, Doctor Feng returned as expected.
He walked into the backyard with a happy look on his face, and said to Qin Ruo with a smile: "Miss, I have reported to the boss. We have taken the two medicinal herbs you brought today."
"The price our boss gave for the medicinal herbs is eight hundred taels of silver in total. Are you satisfied with this price, young lady?"
"Also, our boss has something to say. If you have any medicinal herbs you want to sell in the future, just bring them to Xinglin Hall. As long as the quality is good, we will accept them."
"Do you accept common medicinal herbs as well? For example, Atractylodes macrocephala and Gastrodia elata."
Qin Ruo's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, but her face remained expressionless.
She did not answer the question that Doctor Feng asked her whether she was satisfied with the price of the herbs. The price Doctor Feng gave her was eight hundred taels, which was beyond her expectation.
Her original desired price for Polygonum multiflorum was only about 150 taels, while 100 taels for Dendrobium officinale was already beyond her expectations.
The owner of Xinglintang can't be doing charity, right?
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.
"Yes, yes. Miss, if you collect medicinal herbs in the future, just send them to Xinglintang." Doctor Feng responded immediately with a smile on his face.
He also couldn't understand what his master was doing.
300 taels for Polygonum multiflorum and Dendrobium officinale is definitely a fair price in Taihe County.
Of course, if you take it to Beijing, the price will go up a bit.
The official owner of Xinglin Hall is Master Xue. If Master Xue is here on weekdays, he can handle the business.
It just so happened that Master Xue was not in Taihe County these days, and he really didn't want to miss the good things in Qin Ruo's hands.
So he rode to Xie Mansion in East Street and sought advice from Si Heng, the real master behind Xinglin Hall.
When he came to Xie's house to report, Si Heng's attitude was initially indifferent.
When I heard that the other party was here to sell Polygonum multiflorum and Dendrobium officinale, I initially just asked him to trade at the market price.
If the other party is not satisfied, you can raise the price a little bit more.
Until he said a few more words, he found out that the person selling medicinal herbs was a young-looking girl.
For some reason, the master suddenly became interested. He not only asked about the girl's appearance, but also asked about her surname and place of residence.
When Doctor Feng first tested Qin Ruo, he caused the other party's displeasure.
He had never asked about Qin Ruo's identity information before coming to Xie's house.
But when his master asked, he could only describe it in detail based on his own impression.
After hearing this, the master pondered for a moment and then asked him to directly quote Qin Ruo a price of 800 taels of silver.
The master also said that if the other party is not satisfied, they can talk again.
Logically speaking, based on his master's reaction, he should not know the girl.
Even though Doctor Feng had doubts in his mind, he did not dare to overstep his authority and interfere in his master's affairs.
After getting the confirmed news, he hurried back to the clinic, and as soon as he came back, he began to conscientiously relay Si Heng's words at that time.
"Thank you, Doctor Feng, but this price... is beyond my expectation. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to tell me your boss's last name?"
The thought that just suddenly came to Qin Ruo's mind turned over and over in her mind several times.
The first thing that came to her mind was, could it be that this Xinglin Hall was opened by the Xie family?
Did Mr. Xie deliberately raise the price for the ginseng he sent last time?
"I think you are not from Taihe County. It is no secret that the owner of our Xinglin Hall is surnamed Xue."
Doctor Feng answered Qin Ruo's question readily. The fact that Master Xue was the owner of Xinglin Hall was indeed no secret in Taihe County.
Before he came just now, his master also told him that if the other party asked about the owner of Xinglin Hall, he could tell them.
Doctor Feng was secretly astonished, thinking that his master was too amazing.
He even thought about what questions the girl in front of him would ask.
"My surname is Qin, and I live at the end of Changhe Village, Datong Township. Thank you for your boss's kindness. I'll just go with the price you said." Qin Ruo nodded with a smile.
When she heard Doctor Feng say that the owner of Xinglintang was surnamed Xue, she didn't think much about it.
Since the other party is willing to buy it at a high price, or wants to do a favor, why shouldn't you accept the money offered?
As for the other party's purpose, you will know it sooner or later.
"Then Miss Qin, it's settled." Doctor Feng smiled and took out a few silver bills from his sleeve and handed them to Qin Ruo with both hands.
"When I came here, I thought it would be inconvenient for Miss Qin to carry so much silver. I brought the silver notes here specially. These silver notes can be exchanged at our Dasheng bank."
"That's thoughtful. Thank you, Doctor Feng." Qin Ruo stood up, took the banknote, and thanked him with a smile.
It feels good for a poor person to suddenly become rich.
Qin Ruo thought that she would go out soon, so she immediately went to the silver shop to exchange the silver note.
How can the light paper banknotes compare to the heavy silver?
This was the first big sum of money he had ever made during the Great Sheng Dynasty.
Doctor Feng gave Qin Ruo eight silver notes worth one hundred taels each.
Qin Ruo confirmed that it was correct and quietly put the banknote into the space.
Then she said goodbye to Doctor Feng. She planned to go out soon and return to Datong after exchanging the silver.
Originally, he only had six taels of silver left, and in an instant he had another eight hundred taels of silver. Qin Ruo was in an extremely good mood.
When Qin Ruo was looking down at the banknote, she didn't notice that Doctor Feng quietly raised his head to look at a slightly closed window on the second floor of the backyard.
The person standing by the window made a gesture to Doctor Feng.
Doctor Feng nodded imperceptibly. The man was Si Heng from the Xie Mansion.
He had just come here with Doctor Feng, and after arriving, he quietly went up to the second floor through another door.
From the backyard of Xinglin Hall, the entire scene was in full view.
"Miss Qin, please stay. An old friend of yours wants to invite you for a cup of tea. Miss Qin, is it convenient for you to move upstairs?"
Doctor Feng stepped forward quickly and called out to Qin Ruo who was about to leave.
Qin Ruo seemed to sense something and looked up at the second floor. She saw a young man wearing a bright red cloak, with black hair like a waterfall and a face like an enchantress.
He leaned against the window like a boneless person, half of his head sticking out, with a strange smile on his face.
"Long time no see! Miss Qin, I hope you are doing well. Miss Qin, would you be so kind as to come over and have a cup of tea?"
Qin Ruo's head buzzed. Wasn't this young man one of the two people she met in the woods?
What a great sentence. Long time no see!
Isn’t this person in front of me the “old friend”?
"Since you have invited me so kindly, I dare not refuse."
Qin Ruo had an unclear expression. She smiled at the people upstairs and quickly looked away.
"Miss Qin, this way please."
Qin Ruo nodded slightly, followed Doctor Feng, and slowly went up to the second floor of the backyard of Xinglin Hall.
Her drooped brows just concealed the flash of coldness in her eyes.
