Fortune Princess

Chapter 11
"Little master, this old ginseng, our shop will give you... this amount!" In the single room behind the drug shop, the somewhat fat and white shopkeeper pointed two fingers at Jing Yi.

"200 taels?" Jing Yi asked.

"Yes! The old ginseng you brought is indeed quite old, but if you want to sell it at a better price, you have to go to Fucheng or even a place farther away. Our county can accept such good things. , It’s not that I’m boasting, it’s just our shop! Although the amount we gave you is not high, it’s not low either. There’s no future trouble in trading with us. After all, we’ll have a long time to cooperate in the future. What do you say, little boy?"

Because the shopkeeper had a relationship with Mr. Mu before, Mr. Mu brought this young apprentice to him, and he got to know him well. He knew that he had parents, and if he bullied the children, he would not have to do business in the future.

This kind of killing of chickens and eggs cannot be done, so the shopkeeper of the pharmacy will not ruthlessly lower the price.

Jing Yi nodded. What the other party said made sense. In the county town, the price of 200 taels is indeed not too low.She didn't plan to go further afield to sell ginseng, her impression of gold and silver was just enough.

200 taels, plus the processed medicinal materials she brought this time, it should be no problem to make up 250 taels.

She can use this money to buy wine and meat, salt and rice to buy some condiments. Thinking that the clothes of the aunts and uncles in the village were made by buying cloth last time, she planned to bring some needles and thread.

"Well, these medicinal materials are really well prepared. Among other things, Mr. Mu handles these medicinal materials. In our county, this is really the case!" The shopkeeper checked the other medicinal materials and was very satisfied. He pointed at Jing Yi thumbs up.

Jing Yi smiled, from the beginning to the end, the processed medicinal materials sold in the past few years are the result of her "homework", but it is not easy to tell outsiders about these, let the shopkeeper believe everything he guessed.

"250 taels, the young master took it."

Four ingots of 50 taels of precious silver each, plus five small hammer-shaped ingots, were put into a cloth bag and handed to Jing Yi.

Jing Yi only glanced at it, then took out the four ingots of precious silver, and threw them into the empty bamboo basket.

There were only five small ingots left in the cloth bag, which were hung by Jing Yi's waist, and they would be used later.

Although he knew that this young master had some kung fu, and he was not so white and weak as he looked, but the shopkeeper couldn't help reminding him when he saw him walking out like this: "Young master, our county has not been peaceful recently. When you buy something, it's best not to show off, go back after you buy it, and be careful behind you, so that no one can follow you."

Jing Yi smiled and waved at him: "Don't worry!"

No, seeing the child's silly and sweet look, he became more and more worried.

Jing Yi didn't seem to take this matter to heart at all, and then walked around the county town, buying meat when he needed to buy meat, buying wine when he needed to buy wine, and buying everything he needed, and what he wanted to do later. The bamboo baskets are fuller than when I came here.

Even passers-by could not help but glance at the bamboo basket, then at her, and then at her again in amazement when passing by her.Such a weak and delicate boy, and a big bamboo basket full of them, between the two, it really shouldn't be a painting style that should be put together.

As they walked out of the city, a few men who were flamboyant gave each other a look and followed immediately.

"Drive!" A coachman driving a carriage, waving his whip, drove past Jing Yi, and the dust was flying up so that Jing Yi couldn't help covering his face with his sleeve.

The middle-aged man who was opening the curtain to look out, coughed twice due to the dust, hurriedly lowered the curtain, and saw the roadside boy who was looking curiously at the last moment.

"Although the place is poor, the people are not so stupid..."

"Chen Guanshi, should we go directly to the county office, or stay here first and find it by ourselves?" A young man sitting in the car asked cautiously.

"Look for it yourself, when do you want to find it? Where can you find it? Or go directly to the county government!" The middle-aged man said angrily while wiping his face with a satin handkerchief.

Seeing this, the young man shrank his neck, and didn't dare to make another sound.

A dignified steward of the Marquis Mansion, even if he is not a big steward, has to lead people to go out to find someone, and is assigned such a poor place to find someone, with only a few entourages following him, it's a miserable life It's really bitter, haha, it's no wonder that Manager Chen feels resentful.

There is obviously a problem with the assignment of the chief steward above.

Let them find someone in this place, isn't this deliberately playing with people?
Madam Hou, how could she go to live in seclusion in such a place where no shit is possible?

Besides, after all these years of war and chaos, it has only been a few years since the founding of the country?Maybe long before the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, their mistress of the Hou Mansion was already dead.

Anyway, these people are only going to go for a formality, and no one is really willing to take the effort to find it.

Looking for it is in vain.

……

"Jing Yi is back?"

"Well, I'm back! Aunt Xiu, this is the needle and thread I brought you!"

"Good boy, this is the dagger that Aunt Xiu just forged. Do you like it? You see, poison can be hidden here. Go back to your Aunt Lin and ask for some of her gadgets. Pour a little here, and when you meet Troublesome people don’t need to talk about morals, people who will bully you are definitely not good things, you just use this dagger to cut their flesh and blood..."

"Chu Xiuxiu, are you talking bad about me again? What do you mean begging me for something? What I have in my hand is the best poison in the world!"

Just when Jing Yi entered the formation with a bamboo basket on his back, and walked all the way to the small valley hidden in the depths of the formation, he first met a beautiful woman with a beautiful appearance. When he walked over, the huge hammer that the other party was carrying was clanging down. After hearing that Jing Yi had brought her favorite needle and thread, the beautiful woman immediately gave the thing she had just forged. other side.

Before chatting a few words, he provoked another woman who walked over twisting her waist.

This woman looks mediocre, but if you look closely, you will feel that the woman's face is naturally a little weird, because the facial features are too symmetrical!It's so symmetrical that it doesn't look like a living person's face!
And this is indeed not the face of a living person, because after the two women quarreled, Chu Xiuxiu complained about Lin Sanshui's human skin mask's aesthetic beauty, and even the name "Lin Sanshui" was complained about.

Hey, it's like this again.

Jing Yi, the person who brought them gifts respectively, was obviously thrown aside by them.

Just like their husbands like to pinch each other when they meet, so do they.

But it would be a big mistake to think that the relationship between these two couples is not good.

According to Grandpa Bai, Grandpa Jiang and Uncle Mu are a pair of year-end friends. Grandpa Jiang looks more than forty years old, but that is because he has practiced martial arts all the year round, so he looks young. In fact, he is almost seventy. Aunt Chu looked If you are less than 30 years old, you are also 60 years old.

As for the couple, Aunt Lin and Uncle Mu, one is good at medicine and the other is good at poison. Both of them wear human skin masks all the year round, so even after living with them for these years, Jing Yi doesn't know their real appearance, even they They change their faces every year. After a long time, Jing Yi has trained to distinguish their identities by smell.

Anyway, in their place, apart from her, her mother, and these two couples, there is only one Grandpa Bai, no matter how hard they try, they still have to identify him.

"Aunt Lin, Aunt Xiu, I put the things here, and I have to go to see Grandpa Bai, so let's go first!"

Leaving this sentence behind, Jing Yi, who was also considered one of the freaks, spread his legs and ran towards the depths of the valley, carrying half a basket of things on his back, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The two women looked at each other and stopped arguing.

They even made an expression that couldn't bear to look straight at the same time: "Grandpa Bai... Tsk! That dog is still barking at people in Jing Yi, making up some stories to take advantage of us! If it wasn't because of him, Jing Yi wouldn't make us bark like this..."

For the four of them, Jing Yi called each of them differently, and no one was next to anyone!
"I have to teach this bitch a lesson later!" Looking at the two young women, they looked at each other and showed an old-fashioned expression at the same time.
