Chapter 21: The Rich

Lou Yun followed Dr. Hu through a few streets to the pharmacy where he was sitting, because it was early in the morning, there were not many patients in the pharmacy, and the guys were lazily doing their work. This reminded Lou Yun of the scene in Dr. Liu's pharmacy when he was in Changle Town.

Dr. Hu wrote the prescription a few strokes before returning to the counter and handed it to the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, who read it and handed it to the man to grab the medicine. After the guy grabbed the medicine, he casually threw it to Lou Yun, and snorted coldly, "Pay over there." Lou Yun didn't understand why the guy was so arrogant and rude to him, but he understood after looking at his appearance, because his own blood was splashed on the silk coat last night. So Lou Yun took off the clothes and put on his original clothes when he was dealing with his nosebleed. The dress wasn't worn, but it was patched. Moreover, the medicines he caught were all valuable medicinal materials, no wonder the guy was so cold to him.

Lou Yun walked to the counter and asked the pharmacy shopkeeper, "How much silver do these medicines cost?"

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy didn't raise his head and said coldly: "Five taels!"

Lou Yun took out five taels of broken silver from the money bag and handed it to the shopkeeper, who glanced at it and threw the silver into the money box after confirming that the silver was enough. Lou Yun walked towards the door of the pharmacy with the medicine, and suddenly he thought of something, so he stopped and walked to Dr. Hu, who was drinking tea on the side.

Lou Yun asked, "Mr. Hu, Mr. just said that there is a faster way, can Mr. tell me?"

Dr. Hu put down the teacup in his hand and smiled and said, "These medicines have already cost you, although that method can make her recover in a few days, but I'm afraid you can't afford it for a child who is away from home." It's better to follow this prescription to treat your sister, and when her body recovers in a few days, you can take her home and hand her over to your parents to slowly recuperate. After saying that, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

Lou Yun: "Although Mr. is thoughtful, please tell me that when my sister and brother meet us, maybe I can make my sister get better soon." ”

When Dr. Hu saw Lou Yun's appearance of not being dead in the heart of the Yellow River, he said: "Well, if I don't tell you, I guess you won't feel at ease." There is a thousand-year-old ginseng of Changbai Mountain in this pharmacy, although it does not dare to say that it has the effect of the flesh and bones of the living dead, but it is also a rare treasure. It's a great benefit to your sister's internal injuries, and it will take her a month to recover from these medicines at the earliest, and maybe there will be some kind of disease in the future. But with this old ginseng, it can be restored within five days, and there may be unexpected effects. ”

Lou Yun asked, "Then how much silver does this old ginseng cost?"

After Lou Yun finished speaking, except for Dr. Hu, everyone in the pharmacy burst into laughter. From time to time, some guys ridiculed him: "Just like you, don't talk about a thousand-year-old ginseng, you can't even touch the roots of a century-old ginseng." ”

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy smiled: "Little brother, you better save it, just grab these medicines." Millennial ginseng: That old ginseng is at least 1,500 taels of silver, can you afford it?"

After saying that, there was another burst of laughter.

Lou Yun thought for a while: "It's true that I can't take out so much money now, I only have a few dozen taels of silver on me, and I handed over all the silver tickets given by Uncle Qiu to Yuling, and now Yuling and Big Brother Bai don't know where they are." Sister Xiao is estimated to have only a few dozen taels on her, and she really can't take out so much money now. ”

"Who said he couldn't afford it?" the voice came from outside the door, and everyone in the pharmacy stopped laughing when they heard this. Stared out the door.

At this moment, a man with a bronze mask walked in from outside the door, the man was dressed in a fan, and walked in with a folding fan.

When the shopkeeper saw the man wearing a mask, he asked, "Who is it?"

The man laughed, "Rich!"

After carefully looking at his clothes, the shopkeeper became polite and said, "This son, you may not have heard it clearly just now. The old ginseng in the small shop costs 1,500 taels of silver. ”

Man: "I heard it! It's only a thousand fifteen hundred taels." ”

Hearing these two words, the guys in the inn all looked at him in surprise, they ordinary people who work for others earn ten taels of silver a year when they are tired to death, and they can't earn this thousand five hundred taels in their lifetime, even if they are big families in the county capital and state capital, although they dare not say that they are hurting their muscles and bones, it is also a large expense. But in this person's mouth, there are only two words. couldn't help but surprise everyone.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy said, "Childe, this is 1,500 taels, can you afford to spend so much money for an irrelevant person?" ”

The man smiled and said: "You are a seller, I am a buyer, you are a seller, you just need to ship the goods and collect the money, can you control what I use to do the silver and goods?

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy also respectfully said to Lou Yun: "It turns out that the little boy, I know this son! Just now, the villain has no eyes and doesn't know the true face of Lushan, and I hope that the little boy will forgive his sins." ”

The man said impatiently: "What are you doing with mushrooms here, why don't you hurry up and get the medicine!"

The shopkeeper resignedly said, "Yes! After saying that, he turned around and ran to the back hall.

The man looked at Lou Yun, and Lou Yun looked at the man. Although the man was wearing a mask, Lou Yun could see his eyes, his eyes were sharp as if he could see through everything, but his eyes were very soft when he looked at Lou Yun.

Lou Yun couldn't help asking, "Big brother, who are you?" Why do you want to help me?"

The man laughed and said, "Don't you have any impression of me? ”

Lou Yun thought about it, and suddenly he thought of someone and couldn't help but be scared. Seeing his scared look, the man already knew, Lou Yun guessed his identity, and the man smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have no malicious intentions, but I just want to invite you to my house, little brother." Since you have important business, little brother, it is inconvenient to go. ”

Lou Yun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the man say this, but this also confirmed his guess that he was that person. Lou Yun was about to blurt out, but the man blocked his mouth with his slender fingers and said, "It's good that you know it in your heart, so don't say it." Lou Yun nodded obediently.

After a while, the shopkeeper brought the ginseng, which was packed in a very inconspicuous box, but when the box was opened, the ginseng was wrapped in a precious brocade.

The shopkeeper handed the ginseng to the man's eyes and said, "Childe, please take a look." ”

The man nodded after seeing it, and the shopkeeper handed the ginseng to Lou Yun, who carefully held it in his arms. The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Childe, you see that the ginseng has been handed over to this little boy, you ......"

The man took out a silver ticket with a face value of two thousand taels from his sleeve, and flew out with a swipe, just when everyone thought that the silver ticket was going to hit the medicine cabinet, but the silver ticket slowly fell on the counter, like a fallen leaf, and slowly fell into the cash box.
