Chapter 46 Do It Yourself

Chapter 47 Do It Yourself

Sheng Xi bought a new backpack, some rice, flour, oil, and a few knives of pork.I wanted to buy some more vegetables, but the things in my backpack were already out of stock, so I thought about it and decided to wait until next time.

After leaving the alley, she put all her things into the space.Anyway, the backpack is covered, so no one can see whether the things are there or not.

After buying the things, Sheng Xi went straight to the drug store.

It’s time for everyone to explain, and it’s time to remove the gauze on your head.Of course, she didn't let the drug store owner do it, but pulled off the gauze herself.The reason why she came here was just to buy two bottles of golden sore medicine in case of emergency.

However, when the shopkeeper handed her the small bottle of golden sore medicine, Sheng Xi was stunned.

"Shopkeeper, did you make a mistake? I just gave you a tael of silver." Sheng Xi looked at the porcelain bottle, which was only half-length and contained only half of the powder. She thought, it's not so straightforward to kill someone. Bar?Moreover, the quality of the medicine is also worrying.

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper said: "Girl, this is not the first time for you to come to our drug store. You know the reputation of the store. I am getting you the best gold sore medicine in our drug store. It originally cost one or two. Yes, I saved you a whole two coins!"

It was definitely impossible to get two coins, but Sheng Xi didn't see how guilty the medicine shop owner was.

After thinking about it, she put down the medicine, said goodbye to the shopkeeper, and turned around to go to another pharmacy.

But the results obtained were unsatisfactory.

"This medicine is a life-saving medicine. You count on it at critical times. Even if you go to the county town, the price of the medicine for golden sores will be the same. And it may be more expensive than ours." Sheng Xi came to this pharmacy twice to buy medicine, and the cost It was quite a lot, so the shopkeeper said a few more words.

Sheng Xi understood the market situation and felt deeply: "It's just a hemostatic medicine, but it's so expensive!"

The shopkeeper laughed and said: "You haven't encountered any big problems, so don't underestimate this medicine. It's okay to have minor injuries and pains on weekdays. But don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If you accidentally hurt your tendons, then This medicine is a life-saving elixir, and it’s expensive!”

Sheng Xi nodded and did not deny what the shopkeeper said: "That's true, but... it's too expensive." It's better to do it yourself.

Hey, yes, she can do it herself.This morning she saw someone selling medicinal materials in Anxi Lane!

"It's expensive because of its high cost. We sell it to you at the cost price, so we only make a penny." After the shopkeeper said this, he originally wanted to say a few more words to persuade Sheng Xi to buy this bottle. Medicine, but his eyes suddenly lit up, he thought of something, he cupped his hands towards him, turned around and left.

The shopkeeper said "Hey", but Sheng Xi turned around and shook his head with regret.Wow, the duck that reached my mouth actually flew away.

With a plan in mind, Sheng Xi didn't ask the shopkeeper about the price of other medicines to avoid embarrassment to each other.

Without delay, she went straight to Anxi Lane and used her memory to look for the person selling medicinal materials, and finally found him at the end of the alley.

"Old man, wait a minute!" Sheng Xi called to the old man who was about to leave the alley.

The old man turned around and saw a girl of twelve or thirteen years old, so he asked: "Girl, was it you who called me?"

"Yes." Sheng Xi glanced at the basket behind the old man and saw that the medicinal materials in the basket were still there, and they didn't seem to be missing much.She looked around, pointed to a corner and said to the old man: "Old man, let's go there. There are so many people coming and going here, it's hard to talk."

The old man did not move and asked Sheng Xi, "Do you want to buy my medicinal materials?"

Sheng Xi nodded and said "Yeah".

The old man then opened his legs and took the initiative to walk towards the corner.When he arrived at the place, the old man put down the basket on his back, squatted down and took out some medicinal materials inside, and handed them to Sheng Xi who also squatted down with him: "Girl, look at this, this is Bupleurum, this is Angelica dahurica, they are all prepared. Yes, which one do you want?"

Sheng Xi took it and checked it carefully, and saw that it was indeed prepared and handled very cleanly.

She nodded and asked the old man: "Old man, how do you sell this medicine?"

The old man didn't seem to expect Sheng Xi to buy it. He sighed to himself and then said: "Bupleurum costs three cents per catty, and Angelica dahurica costs two cents per catty. There are about twenty catties of Bupleurum and twenty catties of Angelica dahurica in this basket. Girl, How many do you want?"

Sheng Xi was slightly surprised, but did not answer his question. He just asked, "Old man, do you have any other medicine?"

The old man was a little disappointed when he didn't hear any purchases, but he soon returned to normal.After all, this girl is not the first to ask but not buy. One more of her is not more, and one less of her is not less.

"Yes, there are also Qianghuo and Atractylodes." The old man said. When Sheng Xi didn't answer, he said to himself, "Girl, don't be embarrassed. Just buy it if you can. If you can't, I won't force you." . Alas, these years are too hard and life is difficult."

Sheng Xi suddenly thought of something and asked the old man: "Old man, why don't you sell these medicinal materials to the pharmacy? The pharmacy should collect medicinal materials, right?"

The old man smiled bitterly after hearing her words: "I think so, but the price offered by this drug store is too low. If we sell it to them, all our hard work will be in vain. Isn't this just because we want to make more money, so we Are you here to try your luck? Alas, it really doesn’t work, so I have to go to the pharmacy in the end.”

"What price does the drugstore give you?"

"Cut it in half," the old man replied.

Sheng Xi opened his mouth, and after a quick calculation in his mind, he clicked his tongue and shook his head.

The drug store is ruthless and makes huge profits.

The old man couldn't help but sigh again: "There's nothing we can do about it. We can still get some money by selling it to the drug store. If we continue to spend it, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this year."

After saying that, the old man was about to pack up his things and prepare to leave.

Sheng Xi stopped him: "Old man, I bought your medicinal materials at the price you just mentioned."

The old man was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, his beard shaking with his hands in excitement: "Girl, you, you just said you wanted to buy my medicine? At the price I said?"

"Yes," Sheng Xi nodded, "But..."

As soon as the word "but" came out, the old man suddenly woke up, his body froze, and he looked at Sheng Xi nervously, as if someone had strangled his neck.

"However, I also want your medicine. It doesn't matter whether it has been processed or not. Of course, the processed medicine is the best. But I hope it can be as clean as these two medicinal materials." Sheng Xi said.

"Ah, this, that's no problem! You, when do you want it?" The old man's beard fluttered excitedly, and when he looked at Sheng Xi, his already cloudy eyes became particularly shiny.

Sheng Xi replied: "No rush, you will see when you have time." The only medicines available are Angelica dahuricae and Qianghuo, and there are more than ten kinds of medicinal materials needed to make the medicine for golden sores, which may not be available in a short time.

It is of course possible to buy medicine from the drug store, but this is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also expensive.Now that I have met the old man, I think there will be many people doing the same thing as him.
