Chapter 23
Watching them go in, a guard with a beard came over and said to the guard who was embarrassing An Xu just now: "What are you doing? You are a countryman, why did you offend me?"

The guard smiled and raised his fingers and twisted it, "Someone gave the money, and it was given by a grocery shopping lady who went in and out of the county government's backyard. Tell me, can I not do this?"

The bearded guard only sighed when he heard the words, and said nothing more.

Here, after entering the city, Fang Bo waited for a guest who was dragged along the way to go down, and then said to An Xu with a worried face: "Did you offend someone?"

An Xu frowned and thought for a while, then said, "I've only been to the city a limited number of times, and I didn't spend much time in the city yesterday, so I really can't figure out who I'm going to offend."

Fang Bo looked at the basket she was carrying on her back again, and helped to analyze, "Did you offend someone by selling this thing?"

An Xu frowned and shook his head, "Uncle Fang, you can go to the front and rest first, and I'll go to the Wansheng Pharmacy to have a look."

If it was someone who offended someone because of the torreya, there would definitely be some clues at the Wansheng Medicine Store.

----

The little guy who was dispensing medicine behind the counter saw someone coming in from the outside, turned his head and said, "Master."

Wan Dong's family also took a look, put down the pen in their hands, got up and came out from the table.

As soon as An Xu came in, he saw Wan Dong's family who had a good attitude yesterday and said, "Go sell it elsewhere, we have already collected enough here."

"Wan Dong's family, can you tell me why you didn't accept it again today?" An Xu had guessed before, and asked without much surprise.

I thought to myself, did selling torreya offend someone?
Wan Dong's family looked out, and said in a low voice: "Who has offended you, you should be aware of it," and the voice returned to normal: "Our pharmacy has no shortage of torreya, so naturally we don't need to accept any more. You can go."

An Xu didn't bother, turned and left the pharmacy.

Judging by the appearance of Wan Dong's family, it is impossible for her to tell the people behind her just by asking a few words.

But if he offended someone, An Xu was really confused.

The fifty-pound torreya, which felt very light when I came here, was so heavy that it hurt my shoulders when I walked out of the door of the pharmacy.

It was only then that An Xu suddenly realized that fifty catties weighed so much. She leaned against a wall and took a basket of torreya off her shoulders with the help of the horse-mounting stone of the house facing the street.

After resting for a while, I put it on my back again.

"Not sold?" Uncle Fang came out of the small teahouse, and passed the shortbread in his hand to An Xu, "Don't worry, we'll talk after we eat something."

An Xu was indeed a little hungry, and thanked him for taking it, "I thought about it carefully, and there is nothing to worry about. I just want to sell it loosely in the city. This thing is good to eat as a snack after frying it. Maybe Somebody will."

Fang Bo smiled and said: "It's good if you can think so. Then I will leave in a quarter of an hour. It will be the same time tomorrow afternoon. Come here and wait for the bus."

"Thank you," An Xu bowed.

Fang Bo waved his hand, "If you can't sell it in the town, as long as it's edible and usable, you won't be afraid that you won't be able to sell it."

This afternoon, An Xu wandered around the county town for most of the afternoon, selling more than a dozen catties in the streets and alleys, still selling them for seven Wen a catty.

In the evening, An Xu found an inn and sat on the bed dragging his sore calves, but he worked hard all afternoon, but he didn't get nothing. Yesterday's nearly 80 Wen, plus today's [-] Wen, although he couldn't buy more rice noodles , but enough to pay back the money first.

Picking up a torreya seed and looking at it, An Xu thought that since there were some people in the city who offended at some point, it would be difficult to sell them all at the pharmacy at once, and it would be better to take them home and make one by themselves, and sell it loosely at a higher price.
