Father Xiao was still dazed when he left the house. He asked his daughter, "Wan'er, am I dreaming? Did you really learn your craft from a god?"

"Yes, Dad, don't worry, your daughter doesn't steal or rob. This is what the immortal master taught me." Xiao Wan smiled secretly.

"Thank the gods, Wan'er. Don't tell anyone else, or they will remember you." Old Man Xiao instructed, and Xiao Wan nodded.

The next step is to sell the wild ginseng.

Xiao Wan and her father asked around in the town's pharmacies to see which one had a good reputation and offered fair prices.

The result was that there was a Xuanhutang in the town with a good reputation, reasonable prices, and most importantly, the attitudes of the doctors and the pharmacists were very kind.

Xiao Wan and her father went to Xuanhu Hall.

As soon as they entered the door, a pharmacist came to greet them with a very friendly attitude and asked them whether they wanted to see a doctor or get medicine.

Xiao Wan said that she had some medicinal herbs to sell. When the medicine boy heard this, he looked at the father and daughter. Seeing that they were dressed in rags, he didn't show any bad expression. He just asked what kind of medicinal herbs they were.

When he heard that it was wild ginseng, his eyes lit up. He asked the two to wait for a moment and went in to invite the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man of about forty years old, with a kind face and a straightforward demeanor, but with a hint of shrewdness in his eyes.

He walked up to the father and daughter and politely said, "I heard you two have medicinal herbs to sell. Please move into the inner hall to talk."

The father and daughter also knew that it was not convenient to sell wild ginseng in the lobby, so they followed into the inner hall.

"I am the owner of Xuanhutang. My surname is Chen. May I ask what your name is, brother?"

After Manager Chen asked the medicine boy to serve tea, he introduced himself.

"Hello, Shopkeeper Chen. My last name is Xiao, and I'm the second child in my family. People in the village call me Xiao Lao Er. You can just call me Xiao Lao Er, Shopkeeper."

"Brother Xiao, I'm older than you, so I'll call you that. This is Miss Xiao, right?"

"Hello, Shopkeeper Chen. I'm Xiao Wan'er, just call me Wan'er."

"Okay, I heard you want to sell wild ginseng. Could you let me take a look?"

After hearing this, Xiao Wan'er took out the wild ginseng.

Shopkeeper Chen took it and took a look, his eyes lit up. It was quite old, at least seventy or eighty years old, and the roots were still quite intact.

But after all, he was the shopkeeper, so he held on.

Xiao Wan did not miss the light in Manager Chen's eyes, so she knew what was going on.

"It's really a good ginseng. I wonder how much Brother Xiao is going to sell it for?"

Shopkeeper Chen asked, stroking his short beard.

"This...Wan'er, what do you think?"

Xiao Laoer knew nothing about medicinal herbs and had never experienced such a situation.

He knew that since his daughter knew about wild ginseng, she should have an idea of ​​the price, so he turned around and asked his daughter.

Shopkeeper Chen also looked at Xiao Wan. He didn't expect that this little girl was the one in charge.

Xiao Wan also looked at Shopkeeper Chen, not at all timid.

She said in a crisp voice, "Shopkeeper, we don't really understand the price either. Please give us what you think is right. I trust you. After all, we came here because Xuanhutang has a good reputation. I believe that shopkeeper will not let us suffer any loss."

Shopkeeper Chen laughed after hearing this.

This little girl was incredibly powerful. She said she believed him, but in reality, she was putting him on a pedestal. If he gave her less, it would mean he was ruining his own pharmacy's reputation.

But such a skinny little girl, wearing shabby clothes, looks quite unhappy.

Forget it, let’s be fair and make a good relationship.

Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Chen said, "Generally, a ten-year-old plant costs about thirty taels. This one of yours is probably seventy or eighty years old. It's more complete and full-grown, and its medicinal properties are stronger. I'll give you three hundred taels. Do you think this price is acceptable?"

After hearing this, Old Man Xiao opened his mouth wide enough to swallow an egg.

How much more? Three hundred taels.

Oh my God, when they came, he and Liu thought that five taels of silver was a sky-high price for the pharmacy.

Xiao Wan, on the other hand, was relatively calm. She nodded and said, "Okay, boss. It's a very fair price. Next time I dig it up, I'll send it back to you."

Shopkeeper Chen was very surprised. It was rare to see such a young girl being so calm and composed.

Shopkeeper Chen took the banknote personally, and Xiao Wan handed it to Old Man Xiao. Old Man Xiao mechanically reached out to take it and put it close to his body, then said goodbye to Shopkeeper Chen and walked out of the pharmacy.

Even after walking out of the pharmacy, Old Man Xiao's steps were still weak and he felt dizzy and dazed.

He had been feeling top-heavy since arriving at Xuanhu Hall from Yunke. He asked his daughter in disbelief, "Wan'er, pinch me. I don't think it's real."

Xiao Wan smiled helplessly and said, "Dad, isn't the money in your arms?"

"Oh, yes, let's go quickly, Dad must hide well." After saying that, he looked around cautiously.

Xiao Wan sighed: "Dad, you are acting like this because you are afraid that others will not know that you have money in your arms. Just walk more naturally."

"Okay, Dad gets it. I'm worried about this money, so why don't you take it?"

It’s not Old Man Xiao’s fault. She was also very excited at this moment. For the poor Xiao family, this was a huge sum of money.

"Okay, Dad, if you're at ease, I'll take it. No one will pay attention to a kid like me."

After listening to this, Old Man Xiao went to a secluded alley with Xiao Wan and handed the banknote to Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan turned her back and put the banknotes into her arms, but actually she secretly put them into the space.

Now everything is really safe, and only ninety-five taels of silver are left as a backup.
