C5 First Barrel of Gold
Just as he was about to say something, he heard a rumbling sound. Zhuang Qing immediately pressed her hand against her stomach, her face turning red from embarrassment. After being tormented for so long, how could those wild fruits be enough to digest? Now, his stomach was rumbling with hunger.
The injured man was slightly startled, but he couldn't help but smile. As he draped his clothes, he said to An Yue, "Have you finished buying the items?" Give some to this girl. "
"Alright," An Yue replied in a muffled voice. She put away her knife and fished out two oily paper bundles from her bosom. She opened them in front of everyone. One was a chopped chicken and the other was a roasted yellow sesame seed cake.
Smelling the extremely tempting fragrance of the food, Zhuang Qing swallowed her saliva in disappointment, her eyes unable to shift away.
Under the directions of the man, An Yue placed two paper bundles in front of her. With the word 'hungry' in front of him, Zhuang Qing didn't refuse. She picked up a sesame seed cake and grabbed a chicken leg with one hand. Very soon, he finished off half of the chicken and two pancakes, and only after he had fed the five viscera temple did he wipe his mouth. He picked out new herbs from the bamboo basket and carefully sorted them out.
"I didn't eat this for nothing. I left the medicine for you." "You can change them after you've applied enough medicine for a day and a night. The medicinal properties of each herb are different, so the order in which they are used is different. Brother An Yue, I'll tell you later."
As she spoke, she pointed to each pill and explained the sequence.
An Yue listened very attentively, but when Zhuang Qing finished speaking, her expression was one of confusion. When Zhuang Qing saw this, she slowed down her speech and repeated it again. In the end, An Yue didn't even manage to remember everything after saying it a few times.
Zhuang Qing said helplessly, "Brother An Yue, weren't you the one who applied the herbs from before?"
The fierce-looking man blushed. "I …" I went to the drugstore to buy it and use it. "
"No wonder you're here. These herbs are similar to each other, and the medicinal properties of these herbs are very hard to determine without being in the know." Zhuang Qing consoled him.
At this time, the injured man said, "Since that's the case, then I'll have to trouble you to come again tomorrow and help me change my medicine. This is the deposit. "
With a glance, An Yue took out a few pieces of silver from his pouch and handed them over to Liu Ming.
To be able to do good deeds and earn money along the way, how could he not do the business of killing two birds with one stone? Furthermore, he had almost lost his life just a moment ago. Zhuang Qing accepted the silver without any hesitation. Her heavy hands made her smile, "Then I'll go back first and come back tomorrow. Rest well. "
Finished speaking, she picked up the bamboo basket and left the room.
When she had completely disappeared from their sight, An Yue finally asked in a low voice, "Mistress, should I go investigate?"
The man's gaze was heavy as he looked in the direction that Zhuang Qing had left in. After a long while, he nodded, "Be careful."
On the other side, Zhuang Qing did not immediately return. Instead, he first went to a small town not far from the village. All the herbs collected were used on the injured man, leaving only the old ginseng. She planned to sell the ginsengs and buy some things first.
She handed over the ginsengs, but the medicine store manager stroked his moustache and muttered to himself, "This is the root of a business, you can dig it up anywhere in the mountains. Look at its quality, it's not good."
This was like pointing a deer in front of a horse. Did she really think that she was an ignorant village girl who had luckily dug up a treasure?
Zhuang Qing sneered and directly fished the ginseng out and slowly said, "Shopkeeper, do you think the real ginseng is a merchant's land? Do you not recognize the medicine or are you trying to cheat a local like me? This ginseng needs to be at least sixty years old. Is the upper middle quality bad for you? If I wasn't serious about doing business, I could just go to a shop that knows what's good for it. "
