Little Fubao from the farmhouse takes space to flee famine

Chapter 16

Father Wang took An Ran and strolled to the pharmacy and looked above. There were several large characters written in square regularity, Hui Chun Tang.

This is the largest medical treatment and treatment place in this town, and the doctor Ji Zhongboji, who is well-known far and near, is the doctor.

Not only is Dr. Ji superb in medical skills, but he has never charged fees for medical consultations. Some scholars praised Dr. Ji with the reputation of "a holy hand with a loyal heart calls spring back, and a wonderful medicine with silver needles cures diseases."

The snow in front of the threshold of Huichun Hall has long been trampled, and the men, women and children who come and go are carrying medicine bags in their hands.

The hall was busy with people. An Ran turned around and saw a silver-haired old man taking someone's pulse.

Not far away, medicine was being cooked in a small courtyard in the hall. Father Wang regretted bringing Fu Bao here.

Because there were seriously ill people everywhere, there were coughs and the sounds of children crying.

"Those who want to see a doctor should line up first. You can wait here first." The medicine boy thought they were here to see a doctor and asked them to wait on the bench over there first.

One part of the pharmacy was filled with benches, and patients were sitting on them, probably suffering from wind-cold symptoms, and some children with fever were taking medicine.

"Little doctor, we are here to sell medicine. I have some medicinal materials here. I heard that you collected them here."

The last time he came to sell ginseng, he just talked with Doctor Ji. Doctor Ji said that his medicine storehouse was very short of some medicinal materials after it was destroyed by the flood, and he would take whatever he had.

Because of the winter, Baicao withered, some missing herbs and things could not be found, and those bought from other places were far less than, especially the precious herbs are the treasures of the doctors.

"Let me see what's there first. My master is busy now."

Father Wang opened the bag pinned under his belt and handed it over.

There are many small bags inside the big bag, and each bag contains different processed medicinal materials.

The medicine boy opened one of the bags, and there was notoginseng in it, which was a good medicine.

The same is true for the other bags, notopterygium, cinnamon, bellflower, Gastrodia elata... about a dozen kinds of medicinal materials, five or six of which are very hard to find.

"Where did you get all these things, but they are all good medicinal materials." The drug boy looked at the two of them, and it seemed that they were not rich, they were from the countryside.

"You just say whether you accept it or not, and if you don't want it, I'll go to another house and ask." Father Wang had already thought up his speech, and was just waiting for Doctor Ji to ask him.

Upon hearing this, the drug boy stopped him immediately, and handed the medicine bag to the master who was busy reading the prescription.

"Master, you can see that they are all good medicines. This uncle brought them."

Doctor Ji glanced at the medicine that the drug boy was holding in his hand, and he knew it was a good thing at a glance. The good thing about the thing was not the thing itself, but the person who concocted it. He seemed to be an old hand, clean and neat, and the effect of the medicine was well preserved. .

"It's Brother Wang, are these your medicines?"

Dr. Ji raised his eyes and recognized the person who gave him ginseng last time. There were six ginseng. No one was so generous, but it was hard for him to inquire. Now that he has sent so many medicinal materials, he has to ask for the reason. .

"Shan Ming, you come here to have a consultation. I will come as soon as you go as a teacher."

Doctor Ji took out the medicinal materials in the bag and observed them carefully. He smelled the familiar smell, and felt very happy. When he fell asleep, someone would bring him a pillow.

"Brother Wang, these things really came in time, but one thing I have to say is that my medicine hall does not accept things from unknown sources.

These things of yours look like they were concocted by people inside the sect, with skillful techniques and profound pharmacology. "

Father Wang sat on the stool with Fu Bao in his arms and said: "Someone asked me to sell them. It was not convenient for him to come forward. The things were all given by that person. These things were neither stolen nor robbed. Is there some illegitimate origin?

Doctor Ji, don't worry. If the origin is unknown, why would you take it out?The man said the price was right and sold it. He knew that Dr. Ji was a good man and wanted these medicines to help the poor people. "

Dr. Ji stroked his beard habitually, and asked with a smile: "The person behind the scenes has this ability, why don't they become a famous doctor who can help the world, why use the help of others."

"Oh, I'm just a person who helps sell medicinal materials. Who knows what he wants to do? Everyone has their own secrets, and I don't dare to pry."

Doctor Ji also felt that he couldn't get anything out of the question. This old man Wang was just a farmer in the village, helping others run errands.

But the person behind this is really powerful. Even he has to spend some time to get these things. There are very few people with good medical skills here.

"I don't know what kind of price the expert wants. Although it is a medicine for emergency relief, it is still too cash-strapped now, and all the savings are spent on these medicines."

Father Wang said: "These are two taels of silver together. I wonder if Dr. Ji can accept it."

"Tongyuan, go and get 2 taels of silver and give it to Brother Wang. Next time he comes to deliver medicine, he will give Shanming an eye, and he will give you whatever price he says."

Doctor Ji chatted with Father Wang for a while, trying to get clues about the person behind it from Father Wang's mouth.

In fact, just those few ginseng plants made him very puzzled. Those ginseng plants were very fresh, and they were only unearthed for about two days. In this boundary, he knew exactly which mountains grew what.

These ginseng are all of the same age and size, and they are definitely grown together, and the people who can grow them are by no means ordinary people.

Father Wang didn't open his mouth like a lion, and the price he asked for was also the price agreed by Fu Bao. In fact, the price was twice as high as two taels of silver.

The grandfather and grandson went out from Huichun Hall and met Fang Cuiying who was looking for them everywhere.

"I asked you where your grandfather and grandson went. He disappeared after just a quick glance, which made me look for him for a while."

"Where's Chunlan, does anyone buy anything from our house? It's four taels of silver. Use it to buy some cotton to make a quilt." Father Wang smiled, happy to have income today.

"My darling, dad, where did you get so much money!" Fang Cuiying gave Yinzi a tooth mark, it was true.

"I'll tell you guys in the evening." Even if Father Wang wanted to be tricky, he wouldn't say anything when he couldn't make it through that day.

Fang Cuiying felt that the silver in her hand was very hot. It was as heavy as a few stones, but it seemed to weigh a thousand kilograms.

She had a bold idea. In fact, their father had hidden some private money, or there might have been something valuable at home.

Most of the people in the market had dispersed, and there were still some bad-looking vegetables left on the vegetable stalls, but some stall owners still wanted to sell them.

Their rabbits sold quickly, and they were picked up by a restaurant buyer, and the price was negotiated well. A total of ten rabbits plus their own radishes, cabbage, etc. were sold for more than 5 yuan, 568 Wen.

"Father, you are here, the stall has been closed, let's go and pull some cloth and cotton." Liu Chunlan put the basket on her back, and there were still a few pickle lumps in it.

"As for Yong'an, his legs haven't recovered yet, so don't move the goods. Let's make some bamboo knitting at home and sell it."

There are several cargo ships docked at the pier, and the ones coming from the south and the north are all from other places. They have no industrial output in Mengtang Town, and rely on a transit hub.

Merchant ships from the south to the north will stop here for supplies, and of course there are not only Mengtang counties and towns along the Changshui River.

The wharf is the place with the most work and business, and the surrounding area is full of food and grocery stalls.

As the money for repair work has been changed to reduce taxes, there have been fewer workers, and some places have only started to drive ground piles.

An Ran saw the figure of his father, helping the people on the side of the boat to resist the goods.

Because Mengtang Town needs to be rebuilt, a lot of infrastructure materials are needed, especially wood, stones, and river sand from Luobo Beach.

These are very heavy things and require strong men to work. Not only are the four pillars of the Wang family here.

What everyone cares about is how much money can be earned by selling goods, and the bookkeeper on the ship will make the settlement on the same day.
