Chapter 19 Entering the City

With the company of people in the village, walking on the dark village road will not be too scary.

After walking for about half an hour, the sky finally became bright, and there were more and more people on the village road after that.

Looks like he's going to the market too.

Shen Chenlan had never tried to walk such a long distance, and he was injured before, and he didn't exercise much at ordinary times. After walking for about an hour, he was already exhausted.

Whenever he thought he was about to arrive, he found that there was still a long way to go.

But he persisted.

Finally, after an hour and a half, I saw the city gate in the distance.

He roughly estimated that according to modern time, he walked for almost three hours with all his time.

Jiang Ning knew that Shen Chenlan was working hard, and offered to help him hold the herbal medicine bag in his hand.

But it was rejected by Shen Chenlan.

It was his first time walking, he was inexperienced, and his body was weak.

If he had been in his previous body, he would not be so tired after walking for three hours.

Looks like I'm going to have to exercise better in the future.

Putting these aside for the time being, the group of people was allowed to enter the city after being questioned about their identities by the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate.

Jiang Ning sympathized with his husband's hard work, and took him to rest on the stone steps in the city, and then began to count the things he brought over.

Later, I am going to sell the herbs first, and then go to the clothing store.

Shen Chenlan sat down next to her, listening to her muttering in her heart to make plans for herself, her fatigue was swept away.

He smiled and asked, "How are the markets in Showa Town distributed?"

When Jiang Ning heard the minister open his mouth, he looked back at him with some doubts in his eyes.

Shen Chenlan then said: "For example, which piece of land usually has more shops? Where do the shops sell things at a higher price?"

When he said that, Jiang Ning understood.

He gestured to explain to him.

After getting along for a while, Shen Chenlan was able to understand Jiang Ning's gestures.

According to the direction of her gestures, she guessed: "That's the west side, and that's the east side. You mean that there are two markets in West Street and East Street. It’s the place where dignitaries live, so the price is a little higher, right?”

Jiang Ning listened in a daze, then nodded.

Although there are actually some discrepancies, they are almost the same.

Xianggong is really amazing, he will understand with a simple gesture from her!
So the two of them rested for a while, then got up and went to the nearest West Street.

Jiang Ning's own herbal medicines are relatively common, and they are only picked at the foot of the mountain. If they want to sell them on the East Street, they have to go to the deep mountains to pick those rare herbs.

On West Street, because many poor people see a doctor, these common herbal medicines of lower quality are also accepted.

She skillfully took Shen Chenlan to the pharmacy first. When the shopkeeper saw her, he didn't ask any more questions. He took the medicine bag, weighed it, and then went to the counter to get the money.

A total of two hundred and six coins were sold, Jiang Ning took it carefully, counted the number, and left with Shen Chenlan.

Shen Chenlan looked at it and thought it was hard money.

After all, this herbal medicine not only has to be picked from the mountains, but also has to be washed, dried, and finally sold in the city.

However, Jiang Ning was very happy to receive the money. She would feel that she was useful and could help the family a little bit.

After coming out of the pharmacy, the two passed by a clothing store, Jiang Ning hesitated for a while, and prepared to go in with Shen Chenlan.

Shen Chenlan thought she was going to sell ready-made clothes here, so she said, "Let's go to the East Street to have a look, maybe the price is higher there?"

Jiang Ning froze for a moment, then shook his head, and gestured to Shen Chenlan.

Shen Chenlan understood, he was a little surprised: "Want to buy me clothes?"

Jiang Ning pursed her lips and nodded.
