Time Space: The Rough Man’s Sick Beauty Turned Wild

Chapter 21: Understand a little bit

After returning home and closing the door, Shen Zhihuan dug out the contents of his backpack.

"people…"

Li Qiuhua was so shocked that his voice suddenly increased several degrees. Then he seemed to have thought of something and quickly asked Xiao Weidong to see if the courtyard gate was securely closed. Then he felt uneasy and went there himself.

After making sure that the courtyard door was securely closed, Li Qiuhua found a big wooden stick and pressed it against the courtyard door, and then returned to the main room with confidence.

In the end, even little Weidong, who was holding a peach in his hands and chewing it, was sent to the kitchen to boil water.

"Zhihuan, did you dig this thing from the back mountain?" Li Qiuhua pointed at the two ginseng sticks on the dining table with trembling hands.

I heard from the older generation that there is ginseng in the mountains of Panshi Village.

Many people had thought about ginseng before, but the ginseng grew underground and no one had seen what the ginseng seedlings looked like. After struggling for a while, they slowly stopped.

Unexpectedly, my daughter went up to the mountain for the first time and could actually dig up the ginseng that the older generation talked about.

"Yes!" Shen Zhihuan nodded, "Mom, tomorrow is a holiday, shall we take it to the county and sell it?"

The two items sold were enough for their family of three to eat and drink for a while.

Just thinking about it, Shen Zhihuan couldn't help but swallow several times.

The original owner's body was already very short-changed. In addition, she was a carnivore who loved nothing but meat. She ate rice porridge, cucumbers, and leeks every day, which made her desire for meat increase day by day.

"Take it to the county town and sell it?" Li Qiuhua looked worried.

"I heard from my classmates that the prices at drug stores in the county are higher." Shen Zhihuan's eyes were clear.

Li Qiuhua frowned, with uneasiness in his eyes.

In the past two years, Erzhuzi at the east end of the village went to the county town to cause trouble...

I heard that they haven't been released yet.

"Why don't you go? Mom can go alone." Li Qiuhua was heartbroken when he thought of the few slices of American ginseng and the 80 yuan in foreign debt.

"Mom, my little brother and I haven't entered the city yet!" Shen Zhihuan pouted.

She naturally understands Li Qiuhua's concerns, but if she doesn't bring some things to light, she can only watch those good things being piled up in the resort.

As for the meat…

Then don’t even think about it!

"Mom, the water is boiling."

Li Qiuhua's lips moved, but before he could speak, little Weidong's mumbling voice came from the kitchen.

The weather was hot and the pheasants could not be kept for a long time, so Li Qiuhua stewed them in one pot. Even though he only added some **** and salt, the family of three was still full of food.

In the end, the remaining soup was shared with the rice porridge.

This is the best meal Shen Zhihuan has ever had here.

It was also the best meal that Li Qiuhua, Little Weidong, mother and son had in recent years.

These days, chicken is a precious commodity. Many women may not be able to drink a sip of chicken soup or eat a bowl of brown sugar eggs after giving birth.

Not to mention people like them who are causing hunger everywhere.

At night, Shen Zhihuan, who knew that she was also an old Chinese medicine doctor, took advantage of the hazy night to calmly walk around the small mounds of soil and walk towards the cypress forest with the most abandoned graves.

Rumor has it that the cypress forest in Shuangsha Town was a place of execution in ancient times.

People often say they saw blue will-o'-the-wisps floating in this area, and some people say they saw a female ghost in white with disheveled hair wandering around in this barren tomb...

Over time, villagers in Shuangsha Town and even several nearby towns avoided this cypress forest.

Everyone would rather walk half an hour longer than take this shortcut. However, this is also the reason why Shen Zhihuan and Qin Bin chose this place to trade.

Shen Zhihuan entered the forest, put the fruit under the cypress tree closest to the road as usual, then sat on a stone and began to close his eyes and meditate.

Shuangsha Town is surrounded by mountains, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. It is more than 30 degrees Celsius during the day, and it becomes more than 10 degrees Celsius at night.

Shen Zhihuan wrapped her coat tightly and listened to the rustling of leaves in the wind.

Just when Shen Zhihuan was about to fall asleep, the familiar "crunching" sound sounded.

Shen Zhihuan rubbed her eyes and woke up. When the "crunching" sound approached, she slowly got up and walked out.

"Little girl, it feels good to nap!" Huang Xiaoer, who was riding in the front, put his feet on the ground and looked at the sleepy Shen Zhihuan with a smile and joked.

He was still a little frightened when Mr. Qin Wu asked him to come here before. He didn't expect that she, a little girl, was so capable that she dared to sleep here.

"I'm not even afraid of poverty. What else do I have to be afraid of?" Shen Zhihuan laughed.

"Are you all ready?" Qin Bin, who was following closely, turned over and got out of the car, glanced at Huang Xiaoer with a playful smile, and turned towards Shen Zhihuan.

Huang Xiaoer instantly put away the playful smile on his face, jumped out of the car, took down the empty basket from the car and put it aside.

"No!" Shen Zhihuan pursed his lips toward the tree.

Qin Bin took out his flashlight and started looking from basket to basket as usual.

Shen Zhihuan leaned against the cypress tree and quietly watched Qin Bin inspect the goods one by one.

After Qin Bin looked at the basket, Shen Zhihuan rubbed his sore neck and said, "The quantity is still the same as last time."

"Next time, you can get more lychees and cherries. You can also get an extra hundred handfuls and ten pounds of apples, grapes, cantaloupes, plums, and peaches." Qin Bin nodded.

Huang Xiaoer on the side saw that Qin Bin had checked them one by one and quickly started to move them to the car.

"Then 100 catties each of lychees and cherries, and 200 catties each of grapes, cantaloupe, peaches, and plums. Do you agree?" Shen Zhihuan looked at Qin Bin.

"Lychees and cherries are one hundred and fifty kilograms each, and the others are two hundred kilograms each." Qin Bin thought for a while.

"Okay!" Shen Zhihuan responded lightly, and then suddenly said, "Master Qin Wu, I want to ask you something!"

"What's the matter?" Qin Bin just took out the big unity from his pocket and was about to count. Hearing Shen Zhihuan's words, he stopped moving his hands and looked up at Shen Zhihuan, as if he was listening attentively.

"Do you know which drug store in the county sells fresh wild ginseng?"

"The kind with a reasonable price." Shen Zhihuan added.

"Ginseng?" Qin Bin raised his eyebrows, "Do you still have ginseng?"

"It's not mine, it's my friend's. I'm just helping to inquire." Shen Zhihuan shook his head quickly.

"How many years of age?"

"Looking at the appearance of those two ginseng roots, they must be a hundred years old if not a hundred and fifty years old." Shen Zhihuan frowned and thought for a while.

In her previous life, due to health problems, her grandparents used to tinker with ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, etc. to keep her healthy.

Although she did not become a good doctor after being sick for a long time, she did understand some medicinal properties and medical principles.

"Do you know ginseng?" Qin Bin raised his eyebrows and looked deeply at Shen Zhihuan.

"Know a little bit... superficially." Shen Zhihuan smiled and pinched the tip of his little finger.

"Baokang Pharmacy on East Street." Qin Bin didn't ask any more questions, lowered his head and began to count the numbers.

With the forty-six sheets in hand, Shen Zhihuan was not in a hurry to leave. He watched Qin Bin and the others go away, and then put the diabolo basket on the side into the resort.
