Chapter 16: Twists and Turns

After Zhu Ping'an's brothers entered the pharmacy, a primary school apprentice immediately came to greet them, and they did not despise them because they were dressed plainly, the junior apprentice asked with a smile, "Do you two see a doctor or grab medicine, if you see a doctor, you have to wait for a while." ”

Zhu Pingchuan blushed, shook his head again and again, and stammered a little when he spoke, "No, no, we don't see a doctor or catch medicine, we sell it" Speaking of this, his voice couldn't help but be much quieter, like a mosquito, I'm really embarrassed.

"We sell medicine."

Contrary to Zhu Pingchuan's cramped and uneasy, Zhu Ping'an was at ease and not shy at all, and when he saw that his brother was embarrassed to speak, he took the conversation.

"Selling medicine, we generally don't accept it" The junior apprentice glanced at the basket that Zhu Pingchuan was carrying, for the sake of safety, the pharmacy generally has a special supplier for collecting herbs, and ordinary people don't know how to pick herbs, which often leads to the loss of medicinal effect of Chinese herbal medicines. These two brothers are obviously not medicine farmers, and what good things can the two children have, for the sake of the pharmacy, they politely refused.

Another elementary school apprentice behind the counter grabbed medicine for the women and children who were seeing a doctor, and after a slight pause, he whispered to the primary school apprentice who was receiving Zhu Pingchuan.

Seeing the senior brother calling, the junior apprentice who was receiving Zhu Ping'an and them said to Zhu Ping'an and his brothers apologetically, "I'm sorry, why don't you go and see elsewhere." ”

After saying that, it passed.

Zhu Pingchuan was already cramped and uneasy, and when he saw that the junior apprentice refused, his face turned even redder, so he wanted to take Zhu Ping'an away.

Is this a disadvantage?

However, Liu Bei can take care of the thatched house, so why not run a few more by himself, Zhu Ping'an is ready to leave.

The two elementary school apprentices muttered a little, and one of the apprentices said to the old Chinese medicine doctor very embarrassedly, "Master, all the medicines in this prescription have been grasped, but there is a lack of honeysuckle." ”

"Lack of honeysuckle?" The old Chinese medicine practitioner who was brushing his beard paused, turned around and asked, "Why is there a shortage of honeysuckle, didn't you just enter a batch a few days ago?" ”

"The shopkeeper didn't keep it well, and the water stains soaked the honeysuckle in stock." The apprentice told the truth.

At this time, Zhu Ping'an had already walked to the door, and his ears keenly captured the conversation between the apprentice and the old Chinese medicine doctor.

"Brother Yan, why are you going?"

Zhu Pingchuan's voice sounded at the door.

I saw Zhu Ping'an break free of his hand, snatched the back basket from Zhu Pingchuan's hand, and ran to the old Chinese medicine doctor with both hands in a hurry.

The old Chinese medicine doctor was slightly apologetic to explain to the woman, and the woman wanted to decoct her son earlier, and her face was worried.

"Old doctor, I have medicine to sell." Zhu Ping'an held the back basket in front of the old Chinese medicine doctor as if offering a treasure.

"Hey." The elementary school apprentice stepped forward to stop him, afraid that Zhu Ping'an would collide with the nobleman and disturb the master's diagnosis.

The old miracle doctor, a title, simply speaks to the heart of the old Chinese doctor. Who is not good at having a name, especially a doctor, just because of Zhu Ping'an's words, the old Chinese medicine doctor decided to take a look at what herbs this little kid had in his hand and give him a chance.

"Do you have herbs?" The old Chinese medicine doctor just glanced at it at random, but when he didn't want to scan it, his eyes lit up all of a sudden, and even his beard was torn off twice.

"You are en, not bad, not bad, picked properly, dried just right, can be of the highest quality." The old Chinese medicine doctor pushed the apprentice, stepped forward, picked up a honeysuckle from the back basket held by Zhu Ping'an, looked at it carefully, and sniffed it on the tip of his nose, and his old face smiled.

When the apprentice saw the honeysuckle picked up by the old Chinese medicine doctor, he was silent, a little ashamed, and almost pushed out the charcoal sent in the snow.

"Xiaoyou, your honeysuckle, we have received it in the medicine hall, Erbao will go and weigh these honeysuckles, first give Mrs. Liu the medicine, and then settle the settlement for this little friend according to the top grade." The old Chinese medicine doctor nodded with satisfaction, and said to Zhu Ping'an in a friendly manner, even the title was shortened, and he asked the junior apprentice to weigh the honeysuckle, and then turned back to the lady on the side and chatted, "Madam, this is wild honeysuckle, and the medicinal effect is more than twice as good as the honeysuckle planted by the medicine farmer, and it will be faster for the son to recover his health." ”

Zhu Pingchuan, who was at the gate, heard the words of the old Chinese medicine doctor, and opened his mouth widely, as if he was falling into the clouds, the wildflowers that his younger brother picked indiscriminately in the mountains turned out to be traditional Chinese medicine, and someone really bought wildflowers.

"Thank you, old doctor." Zhu Ping'an thanked him with a simple attitude.

Chinese herbal medicine is divided into upper, middle and lower three products, and the price gap is also quite large.

A primary school apprentice said that a primary school apprentice wrapped the medicine for Mrs. Liu, handed it to the maid standing on the side, and whispered to the precautions.

Hearing that because of the honeysuckle this time, her son's condition would recover one day earlier, Mrs. Liu was overjoyed, and when she left, she asked the maid to reward Zhu Ping'an with a silver nude.

Zhu Pingchuan on the side was already messy, and the wildflowers in the mountains could not only be sold for money, but there were even people who gave them silver.

Zhu Ping'an took the silver nude, a little chubby face was almost unable to find his eyes when he smiled, and arched his fat paws to thank others.

"Thank you, madam, my little brother will definitely recover soon."

Mrs. Liu, who walked to the door, glanced back, was a little surprised, and whispered a few words to the maid on the side.

Then, the little maid trotted over with her skirt and stuffed a silver nude into Zhu Ping'an's hand.

"Little brother's mouth is so sweet, Madame asked me to give it to you, go back and buy some delicious food." After the little maid finished speaking, she touched Zhu Ping'an's chubby face, and then took her skirt to chase after her wife.

Zhu Ping'an's chubby hand grabbed two silver nudes, and a chubby face smiled like a bulldog.

Zhu Pingchuan blushed so much that he really didn't want to know his brother.

"Honeysuckle has a total of two catties of three taels or four dollars, a catty of high-grade honeysuckle is 50 Wen, a medium grade is 38 Wen, and the lower grade is 25 Wen, according to the upper grade, a total of 117 Wen is folded." After the apprentice weighed it, he cleared his throat and quoted the price loudly.

Zhu Ping'an is more satisfied with the price, this medicine hall is still relatively fair, there is no shortage of catties or two, and the honeysuckle is only two catties and three taels at home, and the honeysuckle does not look at himself carrying a basket home, in fact, it is not heavy, let alone after drying.

It seems that this is a trustworthy medicine hall.

When Zhu Pingchuan heard the price given by the junior apprentice, he was really shocked, and he was even more shocked when he saw the noble lady rewarding Zhu Ping'an's two silver nudes.

Zhu Pingchuan is the same as Zhu Shouyi, but Mu Ne is not pedantic, he knows that the reward is just accidental, this wild flower called honeysuckle is a long income, you must know that there are many such wildflowers in the mountains.

When I think about it, I feel a little short of breath.

The old Chinese medicine doctor instructed the junior apprentice to bring a copper coin from the counter, and in front of Zhu Ping'an and Zhu Pingchuan, he counted 120 pieces and put them in the basket at Zhu Ping'an's feet, and said with a kind smile, "This is a total of 120 big money, and the extra 3 will be the reward you gave the old man for relieving the siege just now." ”

"Thank you, old doctor, then let's go." Zhu Ping'an waved his fat paws and thanked him and said goodbye.

I'm afraid that Zhu's father will be worried for a long time.

Zhu Pingchuan hugged the basket and took Zhu Ping'an's hand and walked to the door.

After walking a few steps, I heard the voice of the old Chinese medicine doctor from behind, "Wait." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Pingchuan had a cold sweat on his forehead, thinking that maybe someone had repented, yes, how could anyone buy wildflowers, and gave such a high price, and he was about to catch up with half a month of short-term work. I can't help it, and I beat the drum straight up and down in my heart.

Zhu Ping'an turned his head and asked, "Is there anything else with the old divine doctor?" ”

"If there is still this kind of medicinal material in the future, it can be sent directly after drying. However, the price will fluctuate, so you have to be mentally prepared. The old doctor twisted his beard and said, on the one hand, he appreciated Zhu Ping'an's aura, on the other hand, the quality of honeysuckle was really good, and the demand for honeysuckle in the medicine hall was still very large, and the prescriptions and medicinal diets containing honeysuckle were particularly common, so he decided to stop them and make a good fate.

After Zhu Pingchuan heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and "hey" agreed again and again
