Traveling through ancient times to get rid of poverty, the whole network sends me express delivery

After seeing the comments from netizens, Shen Wanning's face turned even redder. Fortunately, the two of them didn't talk about it anymore.

Shen Wanning changed the topic to the hunter Chen they had just talked about. After chatting for a few minutes, they arrived in Guangming Town.

"Tie Niu, we have a lot of things to buy, so we have to go to the county and return to the village around 5 p.m. Can you wait for us a little longer when you return to the village in the afternoon? We will give you six cents." After getting off the car, Lin Jingyou walked to Tie Niu and asked.

Tie Niu agreed without hesitation, "Okay, I don't have anything to buy. I'll go back to the village soon and pick you up at 3 p.m."

After the few of them agreed on a time, Shen Wanning and the others did not stay in the town for too long, but directly found a carriage to go to the county.

The carriage fare was five coins per person, so Shen Wanning and her two companions paid ten coins. There were ten people in the carriage, so it was a bit crowded.

Lin Jingyou held Shen Wanning loosely in his arms to prevent her from being squeezed by others. Shen Wanning bumped into Lin Jingyou's arms several times, but he looked straight ahead, not daring to look at her.

Shen Wanning wanted to lift the curtains to look outside several times but she held back.

There were so many people in the car that her actions would attract attention, so she just sat there without saying anything or moving.

The carriage was so bumpy that her butt was a little sore. After about an hour and a half, they finally arrived outside Qinghe County.

However, in order to prevent refugees from entering the city and causing chaos, each person entering the city is required to pay a fee of two cents.

Lin Jingyou and Shen Wanning lined up, paid four cents and entered Qinghe County.

Now that he had just entered the city and hadn't bought anything yet, he had already spent a lot of money. This made Shen Wanning sigh that this money was really hard to spend.

As she entered the city gate, she looked around curiously. The streets were bustling with people, hawking and chatting.

Stalls line the streets, offering a dazzling array of goods. The aroma of steaming food wafts from the restaurants, creating a bustling scene that's hard to resist stopping to watch.

Outside the city gates wandered a number of skinny, extremely filthy refugees. Few spoke, a dead silence reigned. Inside, however, the scene was a stark contrast: bustling and bustling. It was like two completely different worlds.

But she didn't forget her business. She pulled Lin Jingyou's wrist, pointed at the Tong Ren Tang store, and said, "Third brother, that should be a pharmacy, right? Why don't we go and ask about the prices?"

Lin Jingyou glanced at the wrist she was holding, his eyes full of smiles, "Okay, walk slowly, there are many people on the road, don't get separated."

The two of them walked towards Tong Ren Tang, and a Tong Ren Tang employee came forward and asked, "Are you here to see a doctor or get some medicine?"

Lin Jingyou looked around the pharmacy, which was more than twice as big as the one in Guangming Town.

"I wonder if the pharmacy will buy some medicinal materials? Can you make the decision?" Lin Jingyou bowed and asked.

"This...if it's a rare medicinal herb, we will of course buy it. If it's just an ordinary medicinal herb, we generally don't buy these scattered herbs unless they are in large quantities." The guy replied after a moment of hesitation.

Seeing that there was no one in the shop, Lin Jingyou took out the ginseng from his arms, revealing most of it. The clerk's face changed, "Please wait a moment, my two distinguished guests. I will ask our shopkeeper to come over and discuss the details."

After saying that, the waiter went to the inner hall and came out with an old man with a white beard after a while.

"Hello, my name is Zhang Zhong. You can call me Doctor Zhang. I wonder how much you plan to sell this ginseng for?" Zhang Zhong asked directly before even seeing the ginseng.

Shen Wanning shook her head inwardly. This medicine shop might not be successful. Asking the price right away clearly meant they were just looking at the village and didn't know the value of ginseng.

Zhang Zhong wanted to wait for them to name a low price so that he could buy the ginseng directly for very little money.

"Doctor Zhang hasn't even looked at this ginseng, how can you know how much it is worth?" Lin Jingyou thought the same thing as her and asked directly.

Zhang Zhong stroked his beard and smiled. "Generally speaking, mountain ginseng is about the same size, and the price won't differ much. But since you asked, I'll take a look."

Lin Jingyou didn't want to waste time, so he opened the cloth bag and revealed the whole ginseng.

Zhang Zhong's eyes flashed with surprise, then he said, "Although this ginseng is large, it's not old enough and its quality isn't top-notch. How about this: twenty taels. This is the highest price we can offer. What do you two think?"

Twenty taels is basically enough for a family in the village to live for five years. Zhang Zhong looked confident that he could defeat them.

Lin Jingyou chuckled, "Since Doctor Zhang has no intention of making this business, then forget it."

After saying that, he wrapped the ginseng in cloth again and pulled Shen Wanning out.

"Hey, wait a minute, twenty-five taels, I'll offer twenty-five taels. If that doesn't work, the highest is thirty taels, thirty taels!" Zhang Zhong continued to shout.

Lin Jingyou resolutely walked out without paying any attention. For such a black-hearted businessman, it was a waste of time for him to talk here.

Not long after walking, they saw another pharmacy called "Rencitang". Just like before, the two of them talked with the clerk in the store, and the clerk invited the manager Yu to come.

"Please come in, we can sit down and talk in detail." As soon as he saw the two people, Manager Yu invited them into the inner hall for a detailed discussion.

The three of them entered the inner hall and sat down. The waiter served them tea and then left.

"May I take a look at that ginseng?" The waiter just said that the ginseng was very big, but he didn't know how big it was exactly.

Seeing Shopkeeper Yu's expression and comparing it to Zhang Zhong's, Lin Jingyou felt a certain degree of confidence in the Mercy Hall. He took out some ginseng and placed it on the table. Shopkeeper Yu wiped his hands with a handkerchief before picking up the ginseng and examining it.

"This ginseng is at least eighty years old, and the roots are intact. It is truly a rare ginseng." Shopkeeper Yu was more delighted than surprised.

The Charity Hall has several stores in Daxia, distributed in various cities. At least, in Qinghe County, this is the first time he has seen such good ginseng.

"Then I wonder how much Manager Yu is planning to offer?" Lin Jingyou asked directly.

After thinking for a moment, Shopkeeper Yu said, "Brother Lin has been straightforward, so I won't keep you in suspense. The highest price for this ginseng is eighty taels. I guarantee that no one in Qinghe County will offer a higher price than our Mercy Hall. Even in Fuzhou, I'm afraid the highest price they can get is only this."

Lin Jingyou was secretly surprised. He really didn't expect it to sell for eighty taels. After Zhang Zhong from Tong Ren Tang told him the price, he originally thought that this ginseng could be sold for fifty taels at most, but he didn't expect it to be as high as eighty taels.

However, he did not agree rashly and hesitated. Shopkeeper Yu saw his hesitation and took the initiative to speak.

"I know Brother Lin is having a hard time deciding. How about this? Brother Lin can compare the prices of the other two companies. If they offer a higher price than ours, Brother Lin can sell it. If ours offers the highest price, Brother Lin can just come back. The price we agreed on will remain the same: eighty taels."
