Chapter 60 Expensive Herbs
These sparse people around here are all watching, thinking that the last two bundles might be cheaper?They have been waiting.

I didn't expect such a person to come from afar.If you don't buy it now, you won't be able to buy it in bundles of three or two later.

"I want these two bundles." Among the people standing there watching, suddenly a middle-aged woman took out six taels of silver from her bosom and said to Jiu Li in a hasty tone, "Here, I want both."

Jiu Li didn't go to pick up the silver in her hand, but said in a very calm tone, "The last two bundles are five taels of silver."

The middle-aged woman fell to the ground in an instant, she was a little dazed, it became cheaper and cheaper in the end, why did she sell it more and more expensive?
The well-dressed middle-aged man had already come to Jiuli, he stood there gasping for breath, looking at the two shriveled bundles of herbs in front of Jiuli, he asked out of breath, "What is this?" How much are two bundles?"

Jiuli didn't pause, and said in a calm tone, "These two bundles are for headaches, one bundle of ten taels of silver."

The woman lay directly on the ground, her head bowed and her feet stamped.

"Oh?" The middle-aged man didn't say anything, he took out 20 taels of silver from his sleeve and gave it to Jiuli, saying, "I bought it."

Jiuli wrapped the two bundles of herbs for him, and said, "Every morning, boil a bundle of herbs in a casserole, fill it up with water, and drink it three times a day; this is two days' worth of medicine, and it can be used for three months. If you want a cure, you can come to me to get herbal medicine in a few days. Ten bundles can basically cure it.”

The man was carrying two bundles of shriveled herbs, and when he left, he thanked Jiuli a thousand times.

The middle-aged woman didn't know whether she didn't buy it or for other reasons, she pinched her ankle and cried loudly.Jiuli tidied up the small pan, put it on her back, and walked towards the other side of the market.

She didn't go home last night, wondering if the two of them had a good meal.She planned to buy some delicious food and go back to reward them.

When Jiu Li passed by the carriage, she glanced at it inadvertently, but she didn't mind, and walked over to the carriage.

The coachman ran over in a hurry, with his mouth wide open, with a very surprised expression on his face, he said in disbelief, "Guess what?

The last two bundles are not sold for three taels of silver, but a bundle of ten taels of silver? "When the coachman said this, he couldn't believe it, and said, "You said there were people who bought it?"They don't buy bundles of fresh herbs from the stall next to it for three cents.Do you have to buy these limp hay? "

The old man nodded and said with a smile, "In the future, she will sell medicines, and people will ask for any bundle."

The coachman was surprised, shook his head and said, "Impossible?"

The old man didn't speak any more, turned to look at the little girl beside him, and said, "Zhenzhen, should we go back to the capital?"

The little girl seemed to be nostalgic, but she still nodded and said, "Okay."

The old man gave the coachman some broken silver and drove away.

The coachman weighed the pieces of silver in his hand, shook his head in the direction where the carriage was leaving, then turned his head to look at the direction in which Jiuli disappeared, and cursed secretly, "I've worked so hard to drive the carriage up the mountain to get rid of it." Three pennies, one back and forth is only five pennies. Her bundle of herbs is only ten taels of silver? That’s more than his income for three years. Or I’ll go pick herbs too.”

He walked towards the village with his hips akimbo, swearing all the way, talking and laughing for several days only cost ten cents, why not a bundle of herbs for her?
If he really went to pick herbs, he wouldn't understand?

What if someone dies?He didn't even have the income of these few pennies. Thinking this way, he felt a little psychologically balanced again.
