The work in the large pharmacy is very busy. The workers have to get up to work before the sun rises, and they can only rest when the sun sets.
A Gen and several teenagers were not used to it at first, and they were so tired every day that they ached all over.
Fortunately, the food is pretty good, no food is wasted, and you can eat as much as you want.
The pharmacy owner knew that the labor intensity of pharmaceutical workers was very high, so he did not skimp on food.
A few days of arduous work awakened the sweet dreams of the teenagers, and they realized that life is far more difficult than imagined.
If you want to get ahead in the city and live an ideal happy life, you must work harder than you imagine.
For example, in a pharmacy, if you want to earn more money, you have to keep working hard.
The longer you stay, the more experience you have, and the more money you earn.
If you are smart enough, becoming a doctor's apprentice is equivalent to getting a path to promotion.
One day, becoming a doctor who can prescribe medicine and treat patients will not only make more money, but also have a higher social status.
In the process of daily work, they often heard pharmacy workers talk about these things, which made several rural teenagers yearn for it.
He hopes that one day he can become a famous doctor, earn high medical fees, and become the envy of people in the village.
It was late at night, and in the pharmacy dormitory, while his companions were dreaming about their future life, Agen was secretly excited.
Today, he accidentally saw the pharmacy manager and a vendor communicating secretly in a deserted corner.
While talking, the vendor quietly stuffed a bill into the pocket of the pharmacy steward.
The steward had obviously seen it, but deliberately pretended not to know, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
Agen didn't know what kind of dirty deal there was between the two, and he had no intention of investigating in depth.
The matter has nothing to do with you, just hang it up high. If you look for trouble, it may bring you fatal danger.
The main reason that made Agen excited was that he saw that the banknotes looked exactly like the stack of banknotes in his hand.
If the banknotes in his hand are real, does it mean that he already has a large amount of money?
Is it possible to realize the dream in advance, buy a house in a big city, marry a wife, have children, start a family and start a business?
If you still have extra money, you can also open a pharmacy yourself, so that you can continuously earn wealth.
The more Agen thought about it, the more excited he became, feeling that life was so beautiful.
He made up his mind to find an opportunity in a few days to test whether the money was real or fake.
But if the money is real, how should I operate it?
At this moment, Agen felt deeply confused and didn't know what to do.
Even if you have money, you don’t know how to spend it to buy the things you want.
He is even more afraid that this money will bring him fatal danger and be suspected and robbed by others.
After thinking for a long time, Agen finally made up his mind not to be too impatient.
It won't be too late to explore slowly when I have time in the future.
A few days passed and nothing happened.
Agen gradually adapted to the work and learned some tricks, so he was no longer as tired as he was at first.
During this period of time, Agen had no time to go out, and naturally had no chance to verify the authenticity of the banknotes.
Today he was working at the door and saw a middle-aged woman supporting an old man leaning against the corner.
The two people looked sad and sat in the corner, sighing constantly.
Out of curiosity, Agen asked casually and found out that the two of them were in the city for medical treatment.
Unexpectedly, after entering the city, the money was stolen by thieves, and the disease was no longer cured.
The father and daughter come from a small town and have no relatives in a big city. Not only do they not have medical treatment, they have no money for food and accommodation, and now they can only sleep on the streets.
I didn't eat for two days and only picked up some rotten vegetable leaves to satisfy my hunger.
If after a few days, the government still cannot catch the thief and find the lost wallet, the two of them will have no choice but to beg all the way back to their hometown.
The old man was already sick, and he got angry because of losing money. If he walked home again, he would probably die on the way home.
After listening to the two people's stories, Agen also sighed secretly.
The house leaked when it rained continuously, and the hemp rope broke at the thin spot. The father and daughter were also miserable.
At this moment, Agen was overflowing with sympathy and wanted to help the other person.
But while helping others, he didn't want to get into trouble.
At this moment, Agen thought of a way to help others and was able to verify some things.
Kill two birds with one stone, worth trying.
Glancing at the father and daughter in the corner, Agen turned around and left silently. Some things must be prepared in advance.
Before I knew it, it was already late at night.
The father and daughter, who were leaning against the wall, were cold and hungry at this moment, and could not help but shiver.
As late autumn approaches, the night temperatures are getting colder and colder, making it very uncomfortable to sleep in the open air.
At this time, a red lantern appeared from the corner of the wall.
The lantern kept getting closer and stopped in front of the father and daughter. A man in black robe could be vaguely seen.
"I know you are short of money, so I'm here to help."
The man in black robes had a hoarse voice and could not tell his specific age. His figure was slender and tall, and his entire face was hidden in his hood.
He stretched out two hands from under his black robe. One hand held several banknotes, and the other hand held several pieces of yellow paper with runes.
"Sell one year of life in exchange for a hundred dollar bill. If you agree, I will start trading, otherwise I will find other people who need help."
The father and daughter looked at the man in black robe, not knowing what to do, but they were quickly attracted by the few hundred-dollar bills.
A hundred-dollar bill is equivalent to the annual income of an average family.
The desperate woman responded very quickly.
"I do."
While the woman was speaking, she took the rune yellow paper, and then a look of astonishment appeared on her face.
The information about Yang Shou's money exchange appeared in her consciousness, allowing the woman to instantly understand what had happened.
It turns out that there is a way to exchange your life for money.
When she looked at the man in black robe again, the woman was in deep awe, and her body could not help but tremble.
At the same time, I felt a surge of confidence that this was not a scam.
Perhaps it was God's blessing that allowed her to survive a desperate situation and encounter such a good thing.
Regardless of whether it is true or false, she will never miss it, otherwise the father and daughter may die of cold and hunger.
The woman took the contract and pressed five in a row before her movements became hesitant.
He looked up at the man in black robe and the banknotes in his hand.
Seeing this, the man in black robe slightly twitched the corners of his mouth, and reluctantly took out five banknotes.
The woman took the banknote and squeezed it with her fingers, a look of joy on her face.
That’s right, real money.
With her hanging heart relieved, the woman reached out her hand again and said to the man in black robe: "Bring the other five contracts, I want to finish them all."
When the middle-aged woman said this, she looked at the man in black robe expectantly, her heart filled with the joy of surviving a desperate situation.
The money earned in a five-year lifespan is not only enough for medical expenses, but also enough to have a lot left over after returning home.
Middle-aged women do not want to miss opportunities, want to earn more money, and deal with various accidents that may occur.
But the man in black robe opposite fell into deep silence.
"Sorry, no need."
The man in black robe used a hoarse voice to reject the middle-aged woman's request to continue the transaction.
"Why, can't one person sell it for ten years?"
The woman looked confused and asked in a very unwilling tone. After all, this was a large sum of money.
man in black robe
"..."
After a few breaths of silence, he picked up the red lantern in front of him and turned around and left without hesitation.
His steps were hurried, as if he was afraid of being robbed of his money.
Seeing this, the middle-aged woman could only stamp her feet unwillingly, and then showed a happy expression on her face.
"Dad, let's go and stay in a hotel and then have something hot to eat.
Have a good sleep. I will take you to see a doctor tomorrow. When you are cured, we will take the car home. "
The old father lying on the ground had witnessed the entire transaction and was looking at his daughter with wide eyes.
Because he was seriously ill, he was speechless at the moment, but tears were flowing from his muddy eyes.
In order to see a doctor for herself, her daughter sold Yang Shou without hesitation and gained a large sum of money.
This filial piety alone is enough to move the old father to tears.
