Huichuntang
Ying Qingci and Ying Shuangsong walked to the door of Huichun Hall.
There are only pedestrians coming and going here. Compared to the shop opposite, this place is obviously much deserted.
As soon as he stepped into the Huichun Hall, the clerk came out and said, "This girl, does she need medicine or medical treatment?"
The guy's tone was very calm, neither looking down upon them nor overly enthusiastic.
Ying Qingci walked in and took a look at the structure inside. It was very simple, with the same decoration as a drug store.
She first put down the backpack on her back, and upon seeing this, Ying Shuangsong also put it aside.
"This little brother, I wonder if Huichun Hall accepts any medicinal materials?"
When the waiter saw the backpacks that Ying Qingci and the others had just put down, and combined with their previous culture, they felt relieved.
Poor people usually find ways to make money. Some people at home have people who know herbal medicine, and they will pick it and sell it in medicine shops to supplement their family income.
"I collected it." He nodded, and then continued, "I wonder what kind of herb it is?"
The herbs in their Huichun Hall actually come from specific sources. However, the Shaodong family are kind-hearted. If ordinary people come here to sell herbs, they will accept them as long as they are of good quality.
"It's some wild yams."
Ying Qingci spoke truthfully.
"Wild yam?" The waiter was stunned when he heard this. He knew about wild yam, but he didn't expect that what they brought was just wild yam.
After all, few people recognize wild yams.
"Girl, wait a moment, I'll call the shopkeeper."
"Trouble."
The clerk walked behind the medicine cabinet aside, opened the door curtain, and walked directly in.
Passing through the curtain, the man walked straight to the backyard.
In the elegant living room, a young man was sitting in the main seat, and a middle-aged man was located below the young man. The two seemed to be talking at the moment.
"Young master, the shopkeeper."
The waiter walked over and greeted the two of them. The shopkeeper heard the sound and looked up, "What happened?"
"Shopkeeper, there is a herbal medicine seller from outside."
"Seller of herbal medicines?" The shopkeeper, Zhang Kun, frowned. Do you still need to come over and tell him this?
"Based on the quality of the herbs they bring, just weigh them according to the usual price. Do I still need to say this?"
Having said this, Zhang Kun looked at the waiter with some dissatisfaction. Wang Li also felt the dissatisfaction of the shopkeeper and quickly explained.
"This family brought wild yams. The price... I can't judge easily, so I came to ask the shopkeeper for instructions."
"Wild yams?"
"Yes." Wang Li nodded. He had never seen a few people selling wild yam at the drug store before, and he couldn't say much about the price.
Sure enough, Zhang Kun was indeed surprised after hearing Wang Li's words. People selling wild yam were indeed rare.
“What’s wrong with wild yams?”
A warm voice escaped from the young man's throat, and Zhang Kun looked over.
"Young master, you don't know. Although wild yam is a kind of medicinal material, very few people know about it. Moreover, in medicine shops, this medicine is all prepared, so very few people know that it is not available. What does yam look like before it’s processed?”
Another reason is that fresh yams look similar to tree roots, and most people will regard them as tree roots when they see them.
According to the waiter, this person does not often sell medicinal materials, but he knows wild yam, an uncommon medicinal material. I think there is someone in the family who knows medicinal materials.
"Oh? Since then, I also want to see it."
After saying that, the man stood up and walked out, followed closely by Zhang Kun.
In the front yard, Ying Shuangsong was waiting a little anxiously. When they came out this time, they did not bring out all the yams at home. They took some of them first. If they wanted them, it would not be too late to sell them.
"little six……"
As soon as Ying Shuangsong opened his mouth, several figures walked out of the room, and he swallowed his words subconsciously.
His eyes fell on the young man at the head.
The man has a handsome appearance and a pair of deep eyes, with a gentle light shining inside. When his eyes fall on him, he will not feel the slightest impatience, but will feel very comfortable, like a spring breeze.
"this…"
"Girl, this is the young master of our Huichun Hall, and that one is our shopkeeper."
The waiter Wang Li introduced them one by one, "Young master, the shopkeeper, these two are the father and daughter who came to sell yams."
Zhang Kun's eyes fell on Ying Qingci and his daughter, "Are you going to sell yams?"
Zhang Kun's tone was gentle. When he saw their clothes, he had no prejudice. He just asked them in a routine manner.
"yes."
Ying Qingci nodded, "I found some wild yams in the mountains before, so I wanted to come to the drug store and ask, can the shopkeeper accept these yams?"
"Of course we have to collect the medicinal materials, but the appearance and quality of the medicinal materials must meet the requirements of our pharmacy."
Zhang Kun did not exaggerate and stated the drug store's requirements.
"Then please take a look at the yams we brought, shopkeeper."
After saying that, Ying Qingci revealed the yams in the basket on his back.
Zhang Kun saw the yam inside at a glance, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Stout, well-proportioned, solid, bright in color, with no damage to the skin and intact roots, it is indeed in good condition."
Zhang Kun praised without hesitation, "Girl, to be honest, we collect yams. Generally, fresh wild yams cost five cents per catty, and processed yams cost eight cents per catty."
"And these yams you brought are very good looking. I can give you six cents a pound. What do you think, girl?"
Although this middle-aged man is the girl's father, he has been observing things for so many years and can still see that even if they are father and daughter, it is the girl who makes the decision.
Six cents per pound was beyond Ying Qingci's expectation. Looking at the smile on the shopkeeper's face, Ying Qingci was stunned for a moment and looked at Ying Shuangsong.
Ying Shuangsong was so excited that he couldn't speak at this moment. Six cents per catty, and they brought almost two hundred catties. In this way, they had more than one tael of silver. In the past, he couldn't. Will think of it.
After all, these yams were found in the mountains and it just took them some time to dig.
"good."
Zhang Kun smiled again and again when he heard Ying Qingci's words, "Don't worry, girl, our prices at Huichun Hall are always the most reasonable."
"I trust the shopkeeper."
After the price is negotiated, it is time to set the clearing price.
"Girl, it's two hundred and eight pounds in total. It's one tael of silver, four coins and fifty-six cents in total. I'll give you sixty cents when I put it all together."
"Wang Li, get the money."
Zhang Kun turned to look at Wang Li. Seeing this, Wang Li quickly took out the money and handed it to the shopkeeper. Zhang Kun handed the money to Ying Qingci.
"Dad, this is the money we made from selling yams, please keep it."
"Hey, good."
Ying Shuangsong put the money away like a treasure and put it in his arms for fear of losing it.
