You Know Nothing About Pain

After choosing for a long time, when the owner of the vegetable shop was a little impatient, Naruto seemed to have made up his mind, and suddenly raised his head and said to the owner of the vegetable shop: "Boss, how is the business recently?"

The owner of the vegetable shop didn't expect Naruto to take the initiative to talk to him, so he was taken aback for a moment and subconsciously replied: "Well...it's okay."

After finishing speaking, the boss realized why he was answering this stinking demon fox, and was about to say a few bad words.

Unexpectedly, Naruto didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and said bluntly: "Do you really think I'm a demon fox?"

This sentence directly drove the boss into a complete bewilderment. He didn't want to understand what the kid meant. What do you think I am a demon fox? Is it because you don't know what it is?

"I know, boss, the dishes you sell to me are always [-] to [-]% more expensive than others."

Naruto picked up the dishes with an understated tone, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him: "After we have known each other for so long, what do you think of me?"

The amount of information in Naruto's words is too much and too fast, the boss's brain is a little bit overwhelmed, so he can only honestly say what he thinks in his heart: "Well...it's okay, the payment is very straightforward, and never credit."

"Right, like you said, I'm an ordinary customer who pays quickly."

Naruto picked out a juicy cucumber, nodded in satisfaction and put it into the cloth bag: "Boss, you are open for business. You should never have too many customers like me. I haven't heard of that boss secretly playing tricks." pushing people out."

"But..." The boss was also confused: "Others say you are a demon—"

"Does it matter what I am? Boss, you just heard others say, have you really seen it with your own eyes?" Naruto interrupted the boss directly: "Take a step back, no matter what I am, do you have a dime relationship with you, Boss?" ?”

"When the sky is falling, there are ninja-sama staring at it, boss, you are just an ordinary businessman." Naruto said with a smile: "Since you are a businessman, is there anything more important than doing business well? ?”

The boss heard Naruto's words and thought about it carefully.

That's right, I'm just an ordinary businessman who runs a shop, so I don't need to worry about those superficial things, that kind of things will naturally be taken care of by Mr. Ninja, as long as I do my own business well.

However, before the boss could figure it out, Naruto spoke first again: "And boss, you should also know that the ninja school has started recently."

"Well... I know I know." Immediately, the boss realized the meaning of Naruto's words, and couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "Could it be that you—"

"That's right, I happen to be one of the students who entered this year." Naruto continued to pick up the vegetables, and said seemingly intentionally or unintentionally: "The teacher also organized a test today. I was lucky and got the first place in the test."

The boss was really panicked when he heard this, he believed that the other party would not lie to him with such a lie that could be exposed with a little inquiring.

For ordinary people like him, ninjas are unattainable existences, and they belong to the kind that can ruin his family by just moving their mouths.

Of course he had heard of the ninja school. Most of the ninja adults in the village graduated from there. To be able to enter the ninja school is already equivalent to half a ninja in his mind, let alone the first place in the exam.

Just when the boss panicked, Naruto had already picked out the dishes to buy.

"Boss, I've chosen it." Naruto handed the cloth bag to the boss, and smiled shyly: "How much is it?"

"I...I..." The owner of the vegetable shop trembled his lips, he was really a little scared now, he dared not accept the cloth bag Naruto handed over, as if what he handed over was not the cloth bag, but the death talisman of Hades generally.

"It's okay, I'm just a customer who buys vegetables." Naruto said with a half-smile: "You can pay as much as you want, don't be afraid, I can still eat you?"

"I...I...I will refund you all the money I collected before."

The owner of the vegetable shop had a mournful face, as if he was about to cry. The other party couldn't eat him, but there was definitely a way to keep him from getting along in the village in the future.

"No, business is all about one willing to fight and one willing to suffer. Since I didn't raise any objections before, I won't say anything more now." Naruto shook his head: "You just calculate how much money you normally have."

"I'm sorry, I really don't dare anymore." The owner of the vegetable shop was about to kneel down to Naruto in public.

Now the chaos outside is the same as anything else. Every day, I can see refugees fleeing from outside. Finally, I have a stable life in the village, and I don’t want to be kicked out even if I beat the owner of the vegetable shop to death.

"It's really okay." Naruto looked at the vegetable shop owner seriously: "Before you were willing to sell vegetables to me, even if it was ten or twenty percent more expensive, I still remember your kindness in my heart. As long as the prices of vegetables are normal in the future, our business A write-off, you open your store, I buy my vegetables, well water does not violate river water."

"Really?" The vegetable shop owner looked at Naruto suspiciously: "You really don't blame me?"

"Really." Naruto saw that the owner of the vegetable shop still didn't dare to take it, and deliberately frowned with a straight face: "I already said it was cancelled, how long do you want to entangle, I think you really don't want to open the shop?"

If you want to say that people are cheap, Naruto said it nicely before, and the vegetable shop owner didn't believe it, but now Naruto deliberately put on a straight face, and the vegetable shop owner felt relieved, and took the bag and started counting the money.

During the period, the owner of the vegetable shop quietly stuffed a large piece of tenderloin into the cloth bag. Naruto saw it and didn't say anything.

This time the price was normal. Naruto took out the money from the frog wallet, and the owner of the vegetable shop thanked him for accepting it. He sent Naruto to the door and warmly greeted him to come back next time. People who saw the surrounding stores Frequent sideways glances.

Back home, neither one, one, and one, said anything. They put the bought vegetables and meat in the refrigerator, and started a day of study and writing as usual.

During the question-and-answer period, after answering one or two questions from Naruto, Mr. Ji suddenly asked, "Why did you do that today?"

Naruto cupped his hands, and said in his usual defense posture: "It's very simple, I just want to stop suffering when buying vegetables in the future."

"Since it is for the sake of not losing money when buying vegetables in the future, why do you threaten the owner of the vegetable shop when he wants to understand?"

Mr. Ji obviously didn't want Naruto to fool him so easily, and then asked: "If you don't feel angry, why did you raise it high and lower it gently after threatening, wouldn't it look like a mouse at both ends?"

Naruto replied unhurriedly: "There is no one else, it's just a small punishment and a big warning."

"Oh?" Mr. Ji showed interest: "Why?"

Naruto smiled slightly: "Master said: A villain is not ashamed or benevolent, he is not afraid of injustice, he does not persuade him when he sees benefits, and he does not punish him without power. Small punishments but big admonitions are the blessings of this villain."

After Naruto answered, Mr. Ji didn't speak, and stared at Naruto for a while.Suddenly he let out a long laugh, and said in a pleasant tone: "Okay! It seems that the book was not in vain. Knowing how to use the knowledge in the book is very good!"

After a long laugh, Mr. Ji shook the book in his hand with a smile and said, "What are you going to do next?"

"What should I do?" Naruto said with some doubts, "Isn't everything resolved?"

"I just praised you for being smart, but why did you become a fool in a blink of an eye? It's not an exaggeration." Mr. Ji patted Naruto's head lightly with the book in his hand: "Increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, the important thing is to increase revenue and not reduce expenditure." , develop according to your food intake, no matter how economical you are, it will definitely not be enough."

"Then what should I do?" Naruto wrinkled his face and said distressedly: "Even if I go to work, the shop in the village should not accept me, and I don't have so much time to go to work every day."

"Mr. has already thought about it for you." Mr. Ji pulled out a book from his sleeve as if conjuring: "What do you think this is?"

Naruto recognized the words on the book word by word: "Ben...cao...compendium...item?"

"There is a house of gold in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book. This sentence is not casual." Mr. Ji waved the "Compendium of Materia Medica" in his hand proudly: "Today, Mr. will teach you how to find money from the book."

Afterwards, Naruto had one more job every week, that is, every weekend, he would find a day to carry a small cage on his back and go to the back mountain to collect herbs.

Mr. Ji paid special attention when he accompanied Naruto to the street for shopping. The herbs used in this world pharmacy and medical center are not much different from his.

But I don't know why there are many medicinal herbs growing in the back mountain, but there are few people. Many good herbal medicines are like weeds on the roadside, and no one picks them.

Afterwards, Mr. Ji read many books, coupled with daily observations, and gradually understood.

After the ninjas in the village were injured, the main medical method was not traditional Chinese medicine, but some medical spells and equipment. Herbs only played an auxiliary role. In addition, there were not many ninjas, so they would only pick some special pills. .

And the civilians here don't have any good means of self-defense, and few are willing to enter the back mountain to collect herbs. If you spend money to hire ninjas to collect herbs, the employment fee will be more valuable than the herbs.

Therefore, in the eyes of Mr. Ji, Houshan is like a big untapped treasure. The common people dare not come, and the ninjas look down on it. In the end, it is natural that their little Naruto is cheap.

----------------

On Saturday morning, Naruto carried a small bamboo cage on his back, wore a straw hat, and held a small hoe in his hand, collecting herbs in the back mountain like a hardworking bee.

According to Mr. Ji's instruction, Naruto lay down on the ground, carefully pushed aside with a hoe, and dug out an oblong, earthy yellow, fleshy tuber.

"Mr. Ji, what is this?" Naruto asked, holding up the tuber in his hand.

"This is Gastrodia elata." Mr. Ji responded with a smile: "It is sweet in taste and calm in nature, and it belongs to the liver meridian; it can relieve wind and spasm, calm liver yang, dispel wind and dredge collaterals."

Naruto nodded and wrote it down, then threw Gastrodia elata into the small bamboo cage behind him, and continued to search hard.

"Mr. Ji, what is this?" Naruto held up another handful of bright yellow flowers.

"This is honeysuckle, also known as honeysuckle. It can be used as medicine after drying in a cool place. It is mainly used to clear away heat and detoxify. It tastes good when used to make tea."

"what about this?"

"Angelica dahurica, the root is used as medicine, can dispel diseases and dehumidify, expel pus and promote muscle growth, activate blood and relieve pain."

During the process of collecting herbs, no matter what Naruto asked, Mr. Ji would take the trouble to explain it carefully. It is not only used to subsidize the family's work, but also a lively and interesting teaching.

Naruto even regarded this process as an outing, picking herbs in a relaxed and happy manner, without feeling tired at all, picking to his heart's content, and even sang the herbal formula taught to him by Mr. Ji.

"A sprig of gerbera is fragrant, invigorates blood, promotes Qi and relieves abdominal distension.

The Eight Immortals pull pig's calamus, detoxify, reduce swelling and improve bone health.

A goldenrod is all over the mountain, and I have a cold, bruises and snake bites.

Lian Qiancao is Huoxue Pill, diuretic, stone stasis and swelling loose.

Clearing liver and improving eyesight Senecio, clearing away heat and detoxifying boils and carbuncle powder.

Diuretic and stone-dispelling Guoluhuang, good at treating furuncles and bruises.

.........."

The children's voice was clear and loud, and the rhetoric was catchy and eloquent, resounding through the back mountain in the early morning, startling the birds.

If it is seen by Mr. Ji's literati and refined scholars, they will have to praise it, it's a picture of a boy picking medicine.

However, the two Anbu quietly hanging behind Naruto were not so happy. Ever since Naruto entered the ninja school and won the first place, the two of them dared not approach more and more in order to prevent being discovered.

"It's over... This guy is getting sicker and sicker." The cat mask Anbu wailed: "He can't really become a fox."

"I said, can you be a little promising." The fox mask Anbu said unbearably: "Those people don't know it, don't you know it? What kind of demon fox, it's just a little boy named Churiki."

"That's what I said, but it's too intrusive." Anbu of the cat mask said with a bitter face: "Listen to the things he sang, does it sound like a spell to summon ghosts?"

Fox Mask Anbu originally didn't want to talk to this dramatist, but he remembered that his application for transfer appointment had been reported for many days, and he should get a reply in a few days.

Thinking of leaving this annoying guy soon, Fox Mask Anbu couldn't help showing a smile, and comforted him for the first time: "It's okay, it's just a little fart screaming, just pretend you didn't hear it."

Cat Mask Anbu didn't expect his teammates to comfort him, and was instantly moved:

"Brother, I didn't expect you to be so good. In the past, I was blind and told you that you had brain problems. It seems that I blamed you."

No wonder recently I felt that Anbu's colleagues always looked at me strangely, it turned out to be the fault of this guy.

Fox Mask Anbu resisted the urge to beat him up, forced a smile on his face and said, "It's okay, I was wrong before, as long as the misunderstanding is resolved."

Seeing that his teammates forgave himself regardless of previous suspicions, Anbu the cat mask was even more moved, and after thinking for a long time, he finally made up his mind.

"That...brother." Anbu of the cat mask said hesitantly, "I have something to tell you."

Immediately liberated, immediately liberated.

Fox Mask Anbu recited a few words in his heart and adjusted his mentality: "Tell me, what is it?"

"That's...that..." Cat masked Anbu with an embarrassing expression: "Isn't there an elder in my family who is the leader of Anbu... When we met face to face that day, I just...just..."

Anbu, the fox mask, had an ominous premonition in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Just what?"

"I just..." Cat Mask Anbu gritted his teeth: "I just ask him to help me change positions, and the appointment will come down tomorrow."

"It can't be my fault, this kid is too intrusive." Anbu of the cat mask explained immediately: "I can't sleep all night now, and this kid will be fine in a few days, I'm going crazy first. "

When Fox Mask Anbu heard the other party's remarks, it was like a bolt from the blue, and an incredible feeling emerged in his heart.
