The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 58
Chapter 58 Lower Prices

"Then please brother Dongzi call a little master! I'll ask my father and the others to come in first."

"Then, don't move, I'll call you first." Gu Chengyu watched Dongzi run to the counter, then quickly turned around and waved to his father and the others outside the door, making sure they saw it, and walked inside before heading towards Dongzi. Looking around.

I saw Dongzi strenuously passing through the crowd, talking to a twelve or thirteen-year-old apprentice at the counter, but the apprentice kept waving his hands, indicating that he was busy, and still looked displeased. Nai, what he said in his mouth probably means that he is very busy and has no time.Gu Chengyu thought that if he was really busy, he didn't know how long he would have to wait, and he was afraid that no one would take care of him, not to mention seeing the shopkeeper, it would not be easy to meet even a young apprentice.If it really doesn't work, I have to line up to pretend to be a drug grabber, and I can only talk about things when I see someone, right?
Gu Chengyu was hesitating whether to line up or not, when he saw a middle-aged man coming out from the room with the curtains lifted. This man was wearing a sky-blue satin cross-neck gown, and walked to the counter to check.The inner room should be the inner hall of the medical hall, and the sitting doctor is at the other door, where many people come in and out, so this side may be the resting place of the principal.This man is not badly dressed, he must be the shopkeeper, or the master master Dong Zi mentioned.

Gu Chengyu looked at Dongzi who was squeezing back again, and had an idea.

"Little brother, I'm really sorry. The medical center is too busy right now, and the little master is not free. Why don't you wait a little longer? I'll find another opportunity to ask you." Dongzi is also really sorry, and he doesn't know how long it will take to wait. Will be idle and not helpful.

"Brother Dongzi, please don't say that. It would be great if you could ask for me. I can wait. However, I see that the person in charge came to the counter just now. Could it be your Master Zhang?"

"Little brother has good eyesight. It is indeed Master Zhang. By the way, the little master is not free, so I will ask the master for you. Just wait." Dongzi went to squeeze the counter again after speaking.

This guy is really enthusiastic!But he looked at this master master with an arrogant expression, mostly small eyes with whites, and a feeling of black eyeballs hanging up, which makes people feel that it is not easy to get along with!When Dongzi reached the counter, he didn't go in any further, and only called out a few times: "Master!"

Seeing that it was a guy in the store calling, the master Zhang didn't want to answer at first, but Dongzi yelled several times, which disturbed others, so he had to drag Dongzi to the corner.It was too noisy in the medical hall, and Gu Chengyu couldn't hear what they said clearly. Dongzi pointed his fingers for a while, and then pointed in Gu Chengyu's direction. The master Zhang followed Dongzi out of the corner of the counter and walked towards him.All right!Gu Chengyu thought that if he wanted to take back his original words, he really shouldn't be judged by his appearance, maybe he just seemed difficult to get along with?

At this time, Old Man Gu and Gu Chengli also came in with sacks on their shoulders, and walked beside Gu Chengyu. Old Man Gu wanted to ask but was interrupted by a voice. "I heard from Dongzi that someone wants to sell honeysuckle, but you guys? Show it out and let me see." Before the master Zhang came to him, he didn't allow Gu Chengyu and the others to say hello, so he went straight to the point.

"Master Zhang, isn't it? It's the kid's house for sale. Father, untie the sack and let him see it!" It doesn't matter who sells the honeysuckle, as long as the price is fair.

Father Gu and Gu Chengli hurriedly put down the sack they were carrying, opened the mouth of the sack, grabbed a handful of honeysuckle and held them in their palms, and handed them to Master Zhang, "Our family picked these honeysuckle flowers on the mountain, and I showed it to the doctor. Yes, it is said to be of good quality, can you show it?"

Master Zhang took it and took a look, then threw it back into the sack, shook the sack, and took a closer look. "Well! The appearance is not bad, but it is better than the average one. Our medical center has regular drug dealers, and such quality is not uncommon. How about it! Seeing that you have come all the way to the county, it is not uncommon. It’s not easy, is it? I’ll accept it right now, including seventy yuan a catty for you, which is already considered a high price, even if you go to other places, it’s not as expensive as our Huichuntang.”

"This? Master Zhang? When I came here." Father Gu became anxious when he heard that it was only seventy yuan a catty. Obviously Li Langzhong said that he could sell it for ninety yuan a catty?Why is it missing so much all of a sudden?
Gu Chengyu secretly tugged at the hem of his father's clothes. It is normal for the medical clinic to charge down the price of the medicine, and the price can still be negotiated, and they don't have to sell it to him.He looked up at Master Zhang, and saw that he had a calm expression, hands behind his back, and he seemed to be sure to win them, thinking that they were all farmers, as if he had never seen money, it seemed that he was right, this is a favorite A guy who watches people through cracks.

Gu Chengyu sneered in his heart, and didn't want to bargain with him anymore. "Master Zhang, I wonder if shopkeeper Liu is in the medical center now?"

"Do you still know shopkeeper Liu?" Master Zhang looked down at Gu Chengyu who was speaking, with a surprised expression.Then, he thought of something again, and his face darkened, "What? You don't believe me? As for the honeysuckle, I, the second shopkeeper, can't make the decision? Are you looking down on me, Zhang?" The pharmacist couldn't supply the honeysuckle. The quality of the honeysuckle this time is very good, and he has lowered the price a bit, but why do you have to find shopkeeper Liu for everything?Could it be that his Second Shopkeeper is just a decoration?
Gu Chengyu thought it was a little funny, it was obvious that Master Zhang looked down on them, but he turned around and beat them up. "Master Zhang, we are also entrusted by someone to send a few words to shopkeeper Liu. I wonder if Master Zhang can be of convenience and introduce us for us."

Master Zhang finally turned pale when he heard this, and glanced at the farm kid who was speaking, he was about five or six years old, wearing grass green fine cotton with a pair of short skirts, and the same clothes as the adults in his family were [-]% new. Presumably not often worn on weekdays.But seeing him speak slowly, he doesn't look like a farm boy who has never seen the world.

"Since you are speaking to Shopkeeper Liu for someone, I think that person and Shopkeeper Liu are old acquaintances, so it's okay to introduce you, but it's a pity that Shopkeeper Liu has something to go out today and is not in the hospital. Let’s not talk about it for the time being, let’s talk about honeysuckle, how about this! I’m adding five cents a catty to you, do you think it’s okay? This is already our biggest concession.”

"It's not going to work. It's not easy for us to come to the county seat. At this price." Father Gu felt a little regretful at this moment. If he had known this, he might as well have sold it in the town. Shopkeeper Liu was not around, and ginseng was not sold. Dozens of articles have been posted upside down, which is really a big loss.

"Master Zhang, as far as I know, the Renhetang in our Shanhe town offered 95 Wenjin. It was because we thought that the Huichuntang in the county was a big medical center, so the price we charged was naturally higher. We also heard from outside According to the word of mouth of Huichuntang, it is said that the price of Huichuntang’s medicines is not deceiving, and the medical skills of the doctors in the hall are even better. My family and I believe it. There are semicolons everywhere in the Dayan Dynasty, so I think we won’t take the opportunity to lower the price.” After Gu Chengyu finished speaking, his voice rose, and a few drug grabbers heard the voice and thought there was a dispute, so they looked over here .

Gu Chengyu expressed deep doubts about Master Zhang's claim that shopkeeper Liu was not around. Who knew if he didn't want to introduce him?What's more, if the price is between 85 and 75 yuan per catty, they can still accept it. [-] is too far from Li Langzhong's estimated price, right?Father and the others worked so hard to pick it up and still have to dry it, and often rummaged through it under the sun, he didn't want to just take it easy on him.
