Traveling through 70's wine
Chapter 12 Selling Medicinal Herbs
When she arrived at the county town, the pharmacy was not open yet, so she found a deserted place and slipped into the space. She changed her clothes, put on the backpack with roe deer and wild goats, killed the roe deer and wild goats, cut them into pieces of about two kilograms, and wrapped them in banana leaves.
After leaving the space, she lowered her head and followed the middle-aged woman carrying a basket into a back street. As soon as she entered the alley, a young man stopped her and asked, "What are you doing?" "Selling things." The young man saw that she was a woman with patched clothes and said, "Selling things for 20 cents." Is this a fee? Wen Qing didn't care and took out two dimes and handed them over.
Wen Qing found a place to put down her backpack, took out a wooden block with "meat" written on it, and put it on the backpack. After a while, several people came over and asked, "What kind of meat? How much per pound?" Wen Qing lowered her head and replied, "Roe deer and goat meat, both are 2.5 yuan per pound. You can also exchange them for food coupons and other coupons."
It was not a festival, so few people slaughtered pigs. The meat sold in the butcher shop was small and hard to get. Mutton and roe deer meat were not easy to get. At 2.5 yuan per catty, they were not expensive. Most of these people only bought one bag, and only two old women bought two bags. Soon, all the 20 bags of meat were sold out. Wen Qing made 100 yuan, 30 catties of food coupons, and 5 catties of oil coupons.
Wen Qing packed up the backpack, left the alley, found a secluded place to enter the space, changed back into her original clothes, put on the backpack with the herbs, and left the space. She turned to the main road, walked along the road, and found a Chinese medicine store.
She walked to the door and said to the clerk, "Do you sell medicinal herbs?" The clerk heard this and shouted into the store, "Lao Li, someone is selling medicinal herbs." A short, fat, middle-aged man walked out of the counter and asked, "What medicinal herbs do you have?"
Wen Qing replied, "There are Gastrodia elata, Poria cocos, Polygonatum sibiricum, Licorice root, and Centella asiatica, all of which are dried." Lao Li said, "I bought them. I want to see if the quality is good. Different quality means different prices."
Old Li picked up the herbs and examined them one by one. Finally, he said, "Gastrodia elata, Poria cocos, and Polygonatum sibiricum are first-class, and the others are second-class." Wen Qing didn't care. "Okay, how much?" Old Li asked Wen Qing to go to the counter on the side and took out a medicine scale. There were ten catties of Gastrodia elata, twenty catties of Poria cocos, five catties of Polygonatum sibiricum, ten catties of Centella asiatica, and ten catties of Licorice. The total price was three hundred and sixty yuan.
Wen Qing was very happy to accept the money. Lao Li said, "Girl, you can sell us any herbs you pick in the future. We will accept any herbs."
Wen Qing went to the agricultural supply store to buy corn, wheat, and rice seeds, spending ten yuan and thirty kilograms of food coupons. Then she took the backpack and took the bus back to Shangyi Town. At the entrance of the town, she happened to see a tractor returning to the village, and she spent five cents to take the tractor back to the village.
After returning home, Wen Qing used the excuse of resting and pretended to sleep in the attic, but in fact she was looking for an opportunity to enter the space and prepare for sowing.
This time when I entered the space, I felt that the air in the space was fresher. Why was that? Walking into the bamboo building, I felt that the heat flow in my meridians was more vigorous and powerful. When I saw the stones in the yard, I suddenly realized something.
I have always heard that jade contains spiritual energy and is beneficial to the health of the wearer. If these stones are raw jade, it all makes sense.
Wen Qing sat cross-legged in the yard, embracing the Yuan and guarding the One, and quickly immersed herself in the practice. This practice lasted for a long time, and the internal energy washed over the meridians again and again, and also continuously filled her meridians. Suddenly, Wen Qing found that she seemed to be able to feel the frequency of the bamboo leaves swaying outside the yard, as if she could see the bamboo poles swaying, and even more like seeing the sparkling water in the lake in the distance. What kind of ability is this?
Wen Qing came out of her practice and walked into the study room in confusion. She picked up the jade piece and was surprised to find that the lines on the jade piece seemed to have changed. She sat on the chair, closed her eyes, and carefully felt the lines with her fingers. They were indeed different lines. She followed the new lines to circulate her internal energy. This was a meridian that extended from the instep through the knee to the top of the head and chest, and flowed to the dantian.
She was immersed in the practice, feeling her internal energy running very smoothly in the new meridians. At the same time, the meridian she had practiced before also started to operate at the same time. It was truly a new experience.
Wen Qing was extremely excited. She felt the heat flow in her meridians over and over again and found that what she could "see" was becoming clearer and clearer. It was unknown how long it had been before Wen Qing suddenly woke up.
She soaked the grain seeds she bought, and went to check on the crops planted earlier. She found that the rice had already headed. It seemed that the space really had the effect of accelerating the growth of crops. When she came back, she found that the buds of the soaked seeds had turned white. She scattered these seeds in the nursery field separately before leaving the space.
It was late at night and she felt hungry, so she quietly walked into the kitchen and saw a bowl of corn porridge and two steamed sweet potatoes in the iron pot. She ate them in a few bites and went back to the attic to sleep.
When she woke up again, Wen Qing looked out the window. The sky was already slightly bright. She went to the sunbath to practice as usual. She found that her military boxing was more powerful and she could hear the wind from her punches. She picked up a stone and threw it hard at a branch of the old locust tree. "Pah", the branch was smashed to pieces and sawdust flew everywhere. If it hit someone, blood would definitely be drawn.
When she got home, Wu Qing had already prepared breakfast. After breakfast, she went to work with Wu Qing. Aunt Lin saw them and took the initiative to greet them: "Wen Zhiqing, Wu Zhiqing, you are here." "Good morning, Aunt Lin."
Today's job is to weed the corn field. Summer corn is planted after the spring corn is harvested. It is only three feet tall now. If the weeds in the field are not removed, they will easily be robbed of sunlight and nutrients, and the corn will not grow well. Therefore, weeding is necessary regularly. Once the corn grows to one person's height, there is no need to weed.
Aunt Lin told the team leader, "I'm in the same team with Wen." The team leader didn't say anything. The two of them got the job and went to weed the cornfield. Weeding the cornfield wasn't very hard, but you had to bend over all the time and stand up to rest after a while. Wen Qing was in good health now, so these jobs didn't affect her at all. But no matter how much she did, she only got 6 work points, at most the same as Aunt Lin, so she slowed down.
After working for a while, Lin Tianlu, son of Aunt Lin, came and said to Wen Qing, "Wen Zhiqing, you go and have a rest, I'll help you." Wen Qing looked at him puzzled, "Why help me? If I should help you, go help your mother." Lin Tianlu went to pull the weeds in her row next to her. Wen Qing said to Aunt Lin, "Your son is here to help you pull the weeds." Then they changed to another row and started again. Seeing that Wen Qing ignored him, Lin Tianlu pulled the weeds for a while and then left.
At the end of the afternoon, the accountant tallied up the scores for both of them and they both got 6 points. Wen Qing said, "Subtract 1 point from my work points and give it to Aunt Lin. Her son came over today and helped her a little." Aunt Lin declined, but seeing Wen Qing's firm attitude, she stopped talking.
Gu Hua looked over here, raised his eyebrows, and came over to Wen Qing and said, "Wen Qing, let's go catch eels later." In September, the eels in the fields are very fat, and crayfish and snails can also be added to the meal. Of course, Wen Qing would not refuse. Several people went home to get tools. She cut reed stalks and quickly made two shrimp cages. Everyone put the shrimp cages into the ditch separately.
Today we caught eels and snails. Guo Jianguo and Li Wei also came, but they caught their own. The villagers saw these educated youth making a fuss. Eels and snails have a strong fishy smell. If there is no seasoning, it will waste more oil and they are not delicious at all. Usually they are cut into pieces to feed chickens and ducks. Wen Qing and the other four caught two buckets of eels and loaches, and also picked up a basin of snails. Everyone returned with a full load. The shrimp cages will be collected tomorrow morning.
These things need to be raised for two or three days to spit out the mud and sand before they can be eaten. Gu Hua said: "We can't eat all these eels and loaches. Do you want to process some? We can share the rest the day after tomorrow."
