Yan Shu walked around the town and had a basic understanding of the current prices.

She came to a pork stall on the street and asked about the price of pork. The boss said that pork was twelve cents per catty, pure lean meat and ribs were eight cents per catty, large bone was five cents per catty, and no one wanted the offal. Either feed it to the dogs or throw it away.

Yan Shu didn't like eating offal, so he just ignored it.

She finally bought two kilograms of pork belly, three kilograms of ribs, and three kilograms of large ribs. Seeing that the pig trotters on the stall were very fresh, she asked the boss about the price.

"Two cents each. There are still seven pig's feet left here. If the girl wants them all, I'll only charge you ten cents."

Yan Shu felt happy and paid the money with a wave of his hand.

Yan Wu, who was following behind, hesitated to speak several times.

Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore and asked in a low voice: "Little sister, these pig's feet are something no one wants. Why did you buy them?"

Yan Shu smiled slightly: "Dad and eldest brother both need to recover from their injuries. Pig's feet can strengthen bones. Drinking pig's feet soup during recovery is very helpful."

After learning that pig's feet had medicinal value, Yan Wu instantly felt that the ten cents were well spent.

After buying the things, Yan Shu wanted to send his two brothers away to do business.

"Second brother, third brother, I suddenly remembered that I forgot to buy some herbs. You go to the city gate and wait for me. I will go find you after buying the herbs."

Yan Huai said: "Little sister, let's go with you."

Yan Shu shook his head: "My uncle may have already gone to the city gate to wait for us. You go and meet him first. I will be there soon."

Yan Wu wanted to say something else, but Yan Shu pretended to be cold-faced and displayed the usual unreasonable behavior of the original owner.

"I'm not a child anymore. I used to come to the town to play alone. How can I lose it? No one else, not my mother-in-law or mother, should come with me."

Before Yan Wu and Yan Huai could speak again, Yan Shu jumped off the bullock cart and ran away.

Yan Wu and Yan Huai had no choice but to go to the city gate and wait.

Yan Shu turned into a narrow alley. There was no one around, and he ducked into the space.

He picked up the tools for digging medicinal materials from the small courtyard and headed straight to Lingquan Mountain.

She had planted many ginseng seedlings on the mountain before, and now they have grown into patches of ginseng.

A ginseng grown here for one year is equivalent to a ginseng grown outside for ten years.

Yan Shu dug out a relatively young ginseng, wrapped it in a piece of red silk cloth, stuffed it directly into his arms and hurried out of the room.

When she came to the hospital again, the little brother recognized her at a glance.

"The girl has gone and returned, but what else is needed?"

Yan Shu smiled slightly: "I'm here to sell herbal medicine. How about taking a look at this ginseng?"

She handed the ginseng to the little brother, who took it into his hand and looked at it carefully, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Girl, wait a minute, I'm going to ask the master to come over."

The younger brother asked Yan Shu to sit down, poured her a cup of tea himself, and then hurried to the backyard.

"Master."

Doctor Lin glared at his young apprentice with disgust.

"What's the proper way to be frizzy?"

The younger brother walked to the pavilion and bowed apologetically to Jiang Ci who was standing aside.

"You made Young Master Jiang laugh. Master, my disciple has brought you something good."

The little brother handed over the ginseng in his hand with bright eyes.

Doctor Lin glanced casually, and then was startled.

He reached out and took it and looked at it carefully for a while.

"The quality is very good, but the vintage is a little short. If it is a century-old ginseng, the value will be dozens of times higher."

This ginseng is only 20 years old, which is really a pity.

Jiang Ci took a look. He relied on ginseng to survive all year round, and he could tell the quality of ginseng at a glance.

This ginseng is of excellent quality. As Dr. Lin said, if it were a hundred-year-old ginseng, it would be worth thousands of gold.

"Who is here to sell ginseng?"

"It's a young girl who is waiting in the front hall now."

Doctor Lin stroked his goatee and looked at Jiang Ci opposite: "Please wait a moment, I'll be back soon."

"No need, I'm just about to go back."

"Okay, if anything happens, I will send someone to notify you in time." After leaving these words, Doctor Lin hurriedly left with his disciple.

Jiang Ci was about to leave through the back door when a familiar voice suddenly came.

"I want to sell this ginseng, please give me an estimate."

Jiang Ci paused slightly, then slowly turned around and looked towards the front of the hall.

is her?

He walked towards the door leading to the backyard and saw a familiar figure sitting on a chair on one side, talking to Dr. Lin with a smile.

Doctor Lin said, "I wonder where the girl got this ginseng?"

"I went to dig wild vegetables in the mountains a few days ago and came across it by accident."

Jiang Ci: Oh, they have been together all day these days. When has she ever dug wild vegetables?

Doctor Lin smiled, knowing that the little girl was lying.

This ginseng was so complete, which meant that this girl was proficient in picking ginseng, but she didn't want to tell her, so he didn't ask any more questions.

"I have a heart-to-heart talk with the girl. This ginseng is of excellent quality. If it were a hundred years old, it could be sold for a thousand taels of silver. Unfortunately, the one in the girl's hand is only 20 years old, so the price is much lower. "

Yan Shu was a little surprised. One century-old ginseng could be sold for a thousand taels?

There are many hundred-year-old ginseng in her space. Wouldn’t it make her rich?

After being excited for only three seconds, Yan Shu gave up the idea.

Selling one or two ginseng pills to help people in emergencies is okay, but if you rely on this to make a living, you will be killed sooner or later.

People who can afford century-old ginseng are either rich or noble, and she doesn't want to be a lamb to be slaughtered in the eyes of others.

"How much money can Dr. Lin offer?"

"The maximum is 150 taels. If the girl doesn't believe me, you can go shopping around before making a decision."

"No need, I believe in Dr. Lin's character."

The price Dr. Lin gave her had exceeded her estimate. Since he could take the initiative to compare shopping, he must be confident.

Doctor Lin was a little surprised to see Yan Shu agree so readily.

This girl is dressed simply, but her speech and behavior are elegant and elegant. She is not like a girl who can be raised in the countryside.

"Wen Cai, go get the silver."

"Yes, Master."

Wen Cai walked to the counter, took out two banknotes from the secret compartment, walked back to Dr. Lin and handed the banknotes to him.

Doctor Lin took it and turned around to hand it to Yan Shu.

"The money and goods have been paid, girl, please keep it."

Yan Shu reached out and took it and took a look. One was worth 100 taels and the other was 50 taels. He folded it and stuffed it into his cuffs, but actually threw it into the space.

"If the girl encounters ginseng of such quality again in the future, she can send it to Jishi Hall."

Yan Shu responded and stood up to leave.

Doctor Lin turned around and walked to the back door, where he saw Jiang Ci staring thoughtfully at Yan Shu's leaving figure.

"Do you know?"

Jiang Ci withdrew his gaze.

She didn't dig up ginseng when she went to the mountain yesterday. Where did the ginseng sold now come from?

She was always acting weird lately, which made him wonder, what was her purpose for suddenly trying to please him?

Jiang Ci's eyes shone with cold light, mixed with disdain and contempt.

No matter what her purpose was, if she dared to treat him like she did last time, he wouldn't mind having another dead person in his hands!

"If she comes to sell anything again in the future, please notify me in time."

Doctor Lin touched his beard and his thoughtful eyes fell on Jiang Ci.

This boy actually cares so much about a girl's family. Could it be that the iron tree is about to sprout... buds?
