Early in the morning a few days later, Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei arrived at Lin Jingchen's house in an ordinary green carriage and picked up Han Qixia.

"Sister Yue, sister Fei," Han Qixia said with a smile as soon as she got on the carriage, "How about we go to the small market outside the city today? If sister Fei wants to make herbal tea, she will need a lot of medicinal materials. That small market The medicinal materials collected are basically sold directly by medicinal farmers. Although they are not processed and require a little more work, without the medicinal materials dealer in the middle, the price will be much cheaper. Since it is a good deed, let me do my part. Well, leave all the preparation of the medicinal materials to me." She talked eloquently, her eyebrows and eyes were much more confident than before, and even her smile looked much brighter, and it seemed that the haze of the past had been swept away. .

Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei couldn't help but look at each other and sighed again: Han Qixia is really different!

The carriage drove out of Linzhai again. The driver had lived in Luoyue City for decades. He just heard Han Qixia casually mention it and knew where they wanted to go.

The carriage went out from the West City Gate and walked all the way to New South. After two or three miles, we saw continuous mountains not far away, with thick greenery. From time to time, we could hear the crisp chirping of birds. Just looking at it and listening It makes people feel a lot lighter. There were green trees nearby, and the temperature suddenly dropped a lot.

Han Qixia picked up the curtain of the car window and looked outside. She pointed to the front with a smile and said: "Sister Yue, sister Fei, there is the small market in front of us. This market will end at almost noon. We can You have to hurry up."

As he spoke, the carriage gradually slowed down and finally stopped under a thick old tree beside the trail.

Baihui and Queer got off the carriage first, and then helped the masters get out of the carriage one by one.

This small market is much simpler than the ordinary markets in the city. It is just a group of medicinal farmers setting up stalls to sell goods under the shade of trees. According to Han Qixia, at first, the medicinal farmers who came back from the mountains to collect medicinal materials sold the medicinal materials on the spot. Gradually, it became famous in the Luoyue City area. Occasionally, some medicinal farmers who grew medicinal materials would come here to set up stalls, and there were sellers. It will attract buyers, so many pharmacists will come here from time to time to collect medicinal materials.

As Han Qixia said, they walked forward. Nangong Yue glanced around casually for half a circle, and saw a somewhat familiar medicinal material. She stretched out her hand towards Baihui, and Baihui immediately handed a book to Nangong Yue with understanding. It was the "Southern Xinjiang Materia Medica" handwritten by her and Xiao Fei.

Nangong Yue also guessed that when she came here today, she would encounter some medicinal materials unique to southern Xinjiang, so she specially brought this "Southern Xinjiang Materia Medica" with her, intending to take this opportunity to recognize the real ones.

Next, Nangong Yue and Han Qixia got busy. Nangong Yue came to this market for the first time, but Han Qixia had been here many times. In fact, she and Lin Jingchen had already bought a lot of things from this small market. After returning from the "Southern Xinjiang Materia Medica", Lin Jingchen had already tried some medicinal materials, so she was chatting with Nangong Yue non-stop...

After buying several kinds of medicinal materials from several stalls, the medicine basket Baihui brought was already half full. Nangong Yue is almost too happy to miss Shu. This southern Xinjiang is indeed a good place. Its climate is destined to have a rich variety of plants. The more plants, the more medicinal materials... Just like this in "Southern Xinjiang Materia Medica" Nearly a third of the herbs were new to her.

Maybe...

Nangong Yue rubbed her fingers thoughtfully, thinking: Since there are so many novel medicinal materials in southern Xinjiang, maybe she can try to improve the recipe of herbal tea, if it can make the price of herbal tea cheaper , the effect is not reduced, which is also a thing that is beneficial to the people.

At this time, Han Qixia pointed to a stall in front of her and said, "Sister Yue, Sister Fei, they are selling rugosa over there. Let's go and have a look."

Whether Xiao Fei is making herbal tea or Lin Jingchen is making summer-relieving pills, the scent of Patchouli is indispensable.

Looking at the pharmacist’s stall, there are several large bags of patchouli, which should be enough for them.

The three girls hurriedly walked over there, and saw a fat, white medicine dealer in a brocade robe standing in front of the stall. He was talking to the medicine farmer arrogantly: "Five taels of silver is a lot of money." . It’s not even May yet, so if you’re selling patchouli at this time, I’m just willing to accept it!”

The farmer was sweating profusely and said: "Uncle, if my family hadn't been in a hurry for money, I wouldn't have been willing to sell it at this time. Five taels of silver to buy my two hundred catties of patchouli, isn't that too little? It’s not enough for my hard work this year!”

"Fifty taels is a lot!" the druggist said disapprovingly, "I took your patchouli and after processing it, it will be kept in the warehouse for several months and it will take up space in my warehouse. ! If it rains and the house leaks accidentally and the medicinal materials are destroyed, it will be all mine. Can I still come to you to ask for the loss?!"

The drug dealer spoke clearly and logically, but the drug farmer looked hesitant. He knew that the drug dealer's statement was a bit exaggerated, but it was not unreasonable. The medicinal material of Agastache rugosa was not difficult to grow, and the price was not high. As long as it was grown in Prices are relatively higher when there are frequent wind chills and hot summer days. One year, a cold broke out in southern Xinjiang. The price of Agastache rose twenty times, and the supply was still in short supply. Both farmers and drug dealers made a lot of money.

But at this time of year, the price of patchouli cannot go up.

The more the drug farmers think about it, the more confused they become. Naturally, they rely on this to grow their crops for a year. Once they are sold at a low price, how will they survive in the next year? Moreover, the family is in a hurry for money... This medicine has been harvested, and it will not be kept for a few days if it is not sold...

Looking at the expression of the drug farmer, the drug dealer was secretly proud and planned to test the pressure on the other person again: "Brother, you might as well think about it again. I'll go for a walk first. When I come back, you have to give it to me. One replied, I'm in a hurry to get back to the city."

The drug farmer hesitated to speak and moved his mouth again and again. The drug dealer then turned around and walked away triumphantly, thinking: This business is probably done.

Nangong Yue and Han Qixia have been listening for a while from behind. Han Qixia has been in Luoyue City for many years and has a general understanding of the prices of some common medicinal materials here. The price offered by this drug dealer is really low, and it seems to be taking advantage of the situation!

Seeing the drug dealer leave, Nangong Yue and the others stepped forward. Han Qixia took the initiative to ask the drug farmer: "Uncle, I wonder how you sell this patchouli?"

Although there are customers coming to the door, the drug farmer cannot feel relieved. There are just a few little girls here, how much Huoxiang can they buy from him!

"I wonder how much the girl wants to buy?" the pharmacist asked nervously.

The drug dealer, who had just walked away a few steps, was a little nervous at first, but he soon came together with the drug farmer.

"We all want these Huoxiang of yours." Han Qixia said with a smile.

Nangong Yue followed up and said: "Uncle, how much Huoxiang do you still have at home?"

The drug farmer was a little dumbfounded, blinked in disbelief, and stammered: "These Huoxiang... girls want it? These cost seven taels of silver..." He looked at Nangong Yue and the others with some anxiety, fearing It scared people away.

The drug dealer also stopped and thought to himself: No way? The cooked duck is about to fly?

The reason why the druggist came to collect the patchouli was because he felt that the weather this year was unusually hot. By June and July, the price of patchouli would probably have a lot of room to rise, and he would be able to wait for the price and sell it. Make a fortune.

Nangong Yue lowered her voice and whispered something in Xiao Fei's ear. Xiao Fei nodded, and then said boldly: "Uncle, we will give you eight taels of silver for these Huoxiang, and we will take as much as you have for the rest. !"

Did he hear wrongly? ! The drug farmer looked happy. Unexpectedly, a pie suddenly fell from the sky, but the drug dealer was so angry that he almost cursed. However, during the business negotiation, when he and the drug farmer were negotiating the price, these girls came to raise money. Price, that means they are unjust, but they all walked away...

The druggist rolled his eyes and thought of something. He kindly went over and said: "Girls, please forgive me for saying a few words. Why did you buy so much fresh patchouli? This patchouli?" But it must be processed first before the medicinal effect can be fully exerted. This processing is not an ordinary dried slice. First, the stems and leaves must be processed separately, and then they must be sun-dried and suffocated at night until they are dry... I am just rough now. To put it crudely, every step is actually very particular. If girls need patchouli, they should go to the drugstore to buy the prepared one."

Xiao Fei didn't understand these things about concocting medicinal materials, but she was very interested in hearing about it and found it quite interesting.

Looking at Xiao Fei's expression, the medicine farmer knew that she knew nothing about it. He hesitated and said, "Girl, this uncle is right. These patchouli need to be concocted before they can be used..." Although he lost this money It's a pity to do business, but you can't cheat this little girl.

This medicine farmer is an honest person. Nangong Yue and Han Qixia looked at each other. Han Qixia said: "Remove the residual roots and impurities, separate the stems and leaves, sift the leaves and put them aside; wash the stems and moisten them thoroughly." , cut into sections, dried in the sun and suffocated at night, repeated until dry, and then mixed with leaves."

The drug farmer didn't know why, but the drug dealer looked surprised. He looked up and down at Han Qixia, who was wearing a green dress: "It turns out that the girl is also knowledgeable. Could it be..." The drug dealer thought of something. Could it be that this girl is The little lady from which drug store, are they also trying to stock up on this patchouli?

Han Qixia pursed her lips and smiled, calmly and calmly.

The drug dealer's expression changed. He couldn't let others **** this great business opportunity. The drug dealer could no longer care about any principles, so he said to the drug farmer: "I'll pay you nine taels, so give me all these patchouli! I'll take all the ones you have at home, too." He thought of the little girl who just made the same suggestion. He hurriedly added another condition, "Next year, I will also collect your Patchouli! How about it?! Our Lijia Pharmacy is the second largest pharmacy in Luoyue City!"

The drug dealer puffed up his chest proudly, believing that the conditions he proposed would be extremely attractive to the drug farmer. As long as the drug farmer is not stupid, he should agree to his conditions.

Who would have thought that the drug farmer’s next sentence would make him dumbfounded——

"No!" The drug farmer shook his head, "This business requires integrity!"

The medicine farmer looked at Han Qixia seriously and said: "Girl, since you are knowledgeable, I can rest assured. Since I have promised you, of course I will sell all my medicinal materials to you."

The drug dealer turned blue with anger, and shouted to the drug farmer: "Hey! Are you stupid? You have nothing to do with money!" Then, he pointed at Han Qixia's nose angrily and said, " And you, I don’t care which pharmacy you belong to, if you go against my Lijia Pharmacy today, you can’t even think of having a meeting!”

He shook his sleeves and walked away angrily, "What a bad luck! I actually met someone with a sick mind!"

The drug farmer looked at the drug dealer leaving with an anxious look on his face: "Girl, have I caused trouble to you? This Li family drug store has quite a lot of power in Luoyue City..."

Nangong Yue, Xiao Fei and Han Qixia looked at each other and smiled. Honest people make people feel soft-hearted, so please help if you can.

Nangong Yue gave Baihui a look, and Baihui stepped forward and gave the herb farmer two addresses in a low voice. The few sacks of Agastache here were sent to Lin Zhai first, and the remaining ones at his home were sent to Lin Zhai. To Zhennan Palace...

Baihui gave the drug farmer a deposit of twenty taels and continued to visit the small market with the girls.

And the medicine farmer stood in the distance, dumbfounded, and did not come back to his senses for a long time. After a while, he pinched his cheek and let out a cry of pain.

Is he dreaming? !

His Huoxiang actually sold to the Zhennan Palace? !

In addition to Patchouli, Nangong Yue bought more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials, and also found a good-looking Polygonum multiflorum, and returned home with a full load...
