Chapter 41: The Power of the Whole Village

More than ten days passed in a flash, and the villagers gathered a new batch of kudzu root powder.

Seeing that the New Year was approaching, taking advantage of the good weather, the villagers followed Jiang Yang down the mountain to sell kudzu root powder and uncaria, and buy some new year necessities by the way.

As soon as the drug boy of the Baoan hall opened the back door and saw more than a dozen young and middle-aged men in ragged clothes standing in the alley, he took two steps back in fright.

If he hadn't seen Jiang Yang standing in the middle, he would have been ready to call someone.

When Jiang Yang saw it, he quickly apologized and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I scared the little brother, these are uncles and brothers from our village, and they are all here to sell kudzu root powder and uncaria."

Only then did the drug boy see that there were baskets at their feet, and he opened his mouth, leaving only one sentence, "Wait here." Then he closed the door.

The villagers who came back for the first time were a little uneasy, "Si Yang, did he stop accepting him?"

Could it be that the recycled ones haven't been used up yet?
Then don't they have to pick up all the things they picked today?
Picking down a mountain is very different from picking up a mountain...

For a moment, everyone had a bitter face.

Jiang Yang also felt a little uncertain about the pharmacy.

Although he knew that they sold the medicine so smoothly last time, Mr. Su probably greeted them in the letter, but this time there are so many people, he is not sure whether they are willing to accept it.

While a group of people were waiting anxiously, the door was finally opened, and everyone stood up excitedly.

Rao, the shopkeeper, was already mentally prepared, and he was shocked when he was suddenly surrounded by more than a dozen excited strong men.

"Treasurer Cao!" Jiang Yang stepped forward to explain the purpose of everyone's visit, but was stopped by shopkeeper Cao with a wave of his hand.

Everyone raised their hearts.

Shopkeeper Cao said: "Orange-stuffed kudzu root powder, as long as the quality passes the standard, it's still worth a couple of cents just like last time."

Everyone was relieved, Jiang Yang said: "The size of the orange shells this time is quite different, I'd better ask Shopkeeper Cao to inspect them first."

The last time I made less, the wild citrus I picked were all picked, and they were all about the same size.

But this time, I made a lot of them, and each household made them by themselves. Not to mention the difference in quality, even the size of the orange shells can't be the same.

What's more, there are only so many wild citrus in the mountains, and it's not easy for them to go into the deep mountains. There are too many people picking them, and it's difficult to find an even size.

Shopkeeper Cao was very satisfied with Jiang Yang's non-fooling attitude, and asked Yaotong to call some people from the pharmacy to count them together.

In the end, the big ones are still two pennies, the medium ones are one penny, and the smaller ones can only be used as extras.

There are also some that are not of good quality, such as orange shells that are not filled, not dried, or overbaked... These are not accepted.

Only those from Jiang Yun’s family passed the quality test except for one or two crushed ones.

Shopkeeper Cao was even more satisfied with Jiang Yang, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, "Good boy, you are worthy of being taught by your master."

After counting, shopkeeper Cao clattered his abacus in his hand, and quickly calculated the money.

In the end, even the uncarias that everyone brought were accepted as much as they could.

"I know it's not easy for you to go down the mountain. I'll take everything I can take from what I brought this time. But don't send uncarved vines in a short time." Shopkeeper Cao said helplessly. A kind of herbal medicine, and I am not afraid to cut off this kind of medicine.

Talking about it, Shopkeeper Cao looked at Jiang Yang, who had been in a daze from just now, "Isn't your master only teaching you this kind of herbal medicine?"

Seeing that Jiang Yang didn't respond, Jiang Bai poked him with his hand, and Jiang Yang came back to his senses, "Ah? What's wrong? Is it over?"

"Forget it, forget it..." Shopkeeper Cao waved his hand and said to Jiang Yang: "In the future, if you have tangerine-stuffed kudzu root powder, you can send it. If the other medicinal materials are processed well, and the medicine shop is in short supply, they will also accept it. But don't be afraid. There is a kind of medicine to harvest, that is, this kudzu root, you have to think about it in the future, so as not to be able to dig a single one in the next year."

……

On the way back to the village, someone asked Jiang Yang, "Si Yang, is the master Mr. Cao mentioned about you Mr. Su? When did you worship Mr. Su as your teacher?"

"That's right, didn't you say that Mr. Su doesn't accept students or apprentices?" Another person also asked curiously.

Jiang Yang: ...he also wants to know.

Before, he only thought that Mr. Su was speaking for them in the letter, but now it seems that he told shopkeeper Cao that he is his disciple?
Jiang Yang couldn't help the excitement in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He just shook his head and said, "Perhaps the shopkeeper Cao misunderstood."

Everyone felt a little regretful when they heard the words, and thought that Mr. Su was willing to accept apprentices, and they were thinking of sending the children in the family to Mr. Su to see if they would be interested.

Most people didn't doubt Jiang Yang's words. After all, the tangerine-stuffed kudzu powder and uncaria were indeed started after Jiang Yang's sister-in-law got better.

If it was Mr. Su, why did Jiang Yang wait until now?The life of Jiang Yang's family these years has not been easy.

But there were still people who didn't give up and continued to ask: "I heard that your niece and nephew have been going to Mr. Su's recently. They learned how to count and read a lot of words. Mr. Su is willing to accept students?"

If you can't study medicine, wouldn't it be better to read and read with Mr. Su?

Jiang Yang knew what they were thinking, so how could he reveal it?

"That was taught by my sister-in-law. She has been feeling better recently, so she teaches the children at home to recognize a few words and learn to count, so that they won't be able to pay for things when they go out to buy things in the future." Jiang Yang said with a smile: "Me and Miao Niang Follow along, and you will memorize more than half of the Three Character Classic."

Everyone envied Jiang Song's good life. He married a beautiful and literate daughter-in-law who knew medicinal materials and was able to help the family earn money.Completely forget those words about Jiang Song being unlucky and marrying a sick child.

"Hey, why don't you let your sister-in-law run a school in the village? So that all the children in the village can get rich?"

As soon as these words came out, many people present were moved and looked at Jiang Yang.

It is said that it is running a school, but everyone knows that no one will teach children to learn to read in a serious manner like the school in the town?At most, it is to send some eggs and vegetables, but in the end it is just a thankless task.

Jiang Yang was unhappy, but it didn't show on his face. He just smiled and said, "My sister-in-law is not in good health. She has to manage the house and make money from embroidery. How can I make her tired anymore? Even our own children, we just do it every day. Study for half an hour."

Hearing this, everyone didn't dare to say anything, after all, Jiang Yang will be relied on to sell kudzu root powder in the future. Does anyone who knows the shopkeeper only recognize Jiang Yang?

Thinking of this, everyone praised Jiang Yang one after another.

"Old man Jiang, your Shiro has grown up and can handle things, and you will enjoy the blessings in the future."

"Isn't it? Your family Jiang Song is capable, Jiang Bai is honest, and Jiang Yang is clever. You and Mrs. Zhou are waiting to enjoy the happiness in the future."

"Shiro is fifteen years old, so it can be said that we have kissed..."

Seeing that everyone no longer mentioned the matter of Mr. Su and the school, Jiang Bai and old man Jiang both heaved a sigh of relief, and responded to everyone's flattery with a smile.

……

Back in the village, Jiang Yang ran to Mr. Su's house as soon as he put his things away.

Mrs. Zhou wanted to call him back to settle the score, but Old Man Jiang stopped him, "Let him go, he has something to do with Mr. Su."
