Chapter 89 Big Profit
"Okay, okay..."

Old Xue stared at the half plant of ginseng excitedly, his expression of love couldn't be faked, and even his excited hands trembled a little.

"Here, you guys... make a price!"

It's not that Mei Berry hates it, it's true, the old doctor's expression of likes and dislikes is directly on his face, and his words are so straightforward,

Mr. Xue's performance simply put "come and kill me" directly on his face.

Naturally, Mei Youqian thought exactly the same as his own daughter. He stretched out five fingers in front of Mr. Xue, and said with an inscrutable expression: "This number."

Seeing her father gesturing to Mr. Xue, his expression sank. Seeing this, Mei Berry thought that Mr. Xue was going to say something bad, but instead she heard Mr. Xue sighing directly:
"500 taels? That's not bad. Do you accept bank notes? I don't have so much cash here. You can go directly to the Huitong Bank in the county to exchange it."

Mei Youqian who only wanted 50 taels:?
Mei Youqian was so frightened by Mr. Xue's sudden opening of his mouth that he didn't dare to breathe out.

But this didn't affect him immediately nodding and agreeing to the price.

"Ah... 500 taels, a silver ticket?" After nodding her head, Mei Youqian silently swallowed her saliva, and confirmed again and again: "It can be exchanged, you won't bully me, will you?"

"That is, how can I lie to you? You probably don't know the value of thousand-year-old ginseng. Asking me for 500 taels may be an exaggeration on purpose."

As Mr. Xue spoke, a confident smile appeared on his face.

Mei Youqian, who was punctured, remained silent and did not answer.

"But the old man is not the kind of unkind person, the old man knows how much it is worth.

A complete plant of thousand-year-old ginseng has a price but no market, but it is only half a root after all, and 500 taels is not a bad treatment to you.

You kid... don't be too little. "

How could Mei Youqian dare to say too little after listening to him?

"Not too little, not too little."

Seeing Mei Youqian shaking his head again and again, this also showed satisfaction.

From Mei Berry's point of view, Mr. Xue's behavior of sprinkling 500 taels of water on his family is simply horrifying.

This also made Mei Berry suspect Mr. Xue's origin.

No, in this small town, the price of 500 taels is what you say, so this old doctor can't be some kind of expert?

Mei Berry doubted life, and the way she stared at Mr. Xue was as weird as it could be.

[System, why don't I remember any character with great medical skills in the book? 】

Someone like Mr. Xue doesn't look like some unknown junior.

Only this time, the system remained silent.

Mei Berry doubted Mr. Xue. After her father agreed to receive the cash receipt, he remembered that his daughter once said that the system gave ginseng for a century. For this reason, he still reminded:
"We have some ugly things to say first. We peasants don't have much knowledge, don't know the value of ginseng, and don't know the age. You said the thousand-year-old ginseng yourself, and we didn't say it. If it ends up..."

"What? Are you questioning the old man's medical skills? Do you suspect that I am blind?"

Before Mei Youqian finished speaking, Old Xue became angry, and said angrily, "This old man can read a hundred characters at the age of three, and at the age of five, he has memorized prescriptions and learned herbs by his grandfather's side. He has practiced medicine for decades, how could he be wrong!? "

This tone shocked Mei Youqian.

He had never seen such an upright doctor who made a mistake!
Seeing Mr. Xue turned around, he went to the back to get the bank note.Mei Youqian then whispered to his daughter: "Girl, that's all I said, are we cheating him?"

Although Mei Youqian has always been proud of his honest face, he has a dark heart when it comes to making money.

But he didn't feel that his heart was already dark.

A hundred years pretended to be a thousand years, and 50 taels became 500 taels. He felt a little bit sorry.

When Mei Berry learned that her father only wanted 50 taels, she gave her father a look like a dead fish, and said in a low voice, "It's a good thing you didn't say anything."

Otherwise, Mr. Xue would probably laugh at his father to death.

"There is a big difference between a hundred years and a thousand years. You said that if he uses this medicine for other patients, what can he do if the medicine is not effective enough? What if someone dies..."

"Nor will it be."

Mei Berry was the same as her father worried at first, but now that she knows the truth, she has no fluctuations in her heart.

After all, it's only a year away.

Just as Mei Berry was about to tell her father the truth, she saw Mr. Xue coming back with a bank note in a hurry, as if she was afraid that Mei Berry and the others would go back on their word.

When Mr. Xue took the ginseng, Mei Berry asked curiously, "Is it because you have someone who is eager to save this half plant of ginseng that you bought so eagerly?"

"What's the matter? What if I am in a hurry to save someone?"

Although the little girl in front of him was not very old, seeing that the bank note he handed out just now was kept by the girl in front of him, and the old man behind him seemed indifferent to it, and he knew that Mei Berry was not an ordinary person.

Ordinary people, who asked the girl to put silver and ginseng?
"Nothing, just asking."

Seeing Mr. Xue suddenly looking at her with that half-smile expression, Mei Berry's eyes also became a little erratic.

Why was she so curious about this just now?

Who they want to save is their business.

After realizing this, Mei Berry put away her curiosity and was about to leave with her father.

Seeing that the father and daughter were about to leave, Mr. Xue seemed to understand something, and called to stop them, saying:

"Not everything in this world needs to know the ins and outs of everything. Not all the objects in front of us need to be traced back to the ins and outs.

I will buy this half ginseng from you, no matter where this ginseng will be used.The people who finally used this ginseng only thought that I gave it to them.

Regardless of whether it is good or bad after taking it, the ultimate cause and effect will stop with me, understand? "

Mr. Xue said it tactfully, but Mei Berry and Mei Youqian also understood. They turned their heads and smiled at Mr. Xue, thanked him, and opened the door to leave Jishitang.

When the figures of the father and daughter disappeared completely on the street, Mr. Xue took half a ginseng and hurried to the grocery store where Mei Berry and the others were before.

***
Mei Berry and Mei Youqian who left the street were also extremely excited at the moment.

But compared to the fact that her father has already told him to pinch him, Mei Berry said that she is really calm.

"Oh my god, baby, pinch your father and me, was it true or not just now?"

Mei Berry, whose ears hurt from being quarreled by her father, only asked, "Fake, how are you?"

Mei Youqian replied: "It's fake, then let's go to the tea shop to have tea and tea cakes and observe the people coming and going."

Meiberry: "Really, what about you, Dad?"

Mei Youqian: "Really, then let's go buy roast chicken and sesame cakes first, then go to the tea shop to have tea and tea cakes, and observe the people coming and going."

Seeing that no matter how excited her father was, Mei Berry still remembered her mother's advice, and felt a little funny in her heart.

It was funny, but at the same time, she had some sour teeth.

"Then... let's go buy roast chicken first?"

Meiberry suggested.

"No, buy sesame seed cakes first, your mother loves them."
