After rebirth, I became very good

Chapter 16

This store is the largest Chinese medicine store in the city. It cost more than 300,000 yuan just to decorate it. The Chinese medicines inside are even more dazzling. Hanging in the closet is beautifully packaged wild ginseng. The most expensive wild ginseng has a unit price of It will be sold for more than 200,000 yuan.

The wooden barrels outside the store also contain a variety of common Chinese medicines, such as tangerine peel, longan, oysters, etc. Ordinary people rarely come into contact with Chinese medicine. It is the first time for everyone to visit a Chinese medicine store like this. Gu Yuxin felt a little scared by those sun-dried reptile skins, but Gu Yuze found it amusing and wanted to buy two sun-dried toad skins to play with. However, Gu Yuxin glared at them before putting down his hand.

Xu Mo handed the formula he had written in advance to the clerk. After reading it, the clerk went to grab the medicine, leaving Xu Mo and the others to look around.

To be honest, Xiao Min actually felt that traditional Chinese medicine was quite unreliable. The wild ginseng in the closet was sold for 200,000 yuan. It was too expensive. Xiao Min couldn't help but ask whether these were real or fake.

Gu Yuze felt funny when he heard this and said, "How could it be fake? Isn't it written outside that the goods are genuine and you will pay ten for every fake one."

"That's right, Xu Mo!" Gu Yuze patted Xu Mo's shoulder and asked Xu Mo to reflect on him.

At this time, Xu Mo took out a large piece of stone honey from the wooden barrel of the traditional Chinese medicine store and looked at it.

At this time, the clerk packed all the Chinese medicine Xu Mo needed into boxes, which cost a total of 120 yuan. In addition to Xiao Min's portion, there was also the portion that Director Wen's mother needed.

When the clerk quoted the price, several children were stunned.

After all, it was 2005, and high school students didn't have much money. Xu Mo just spent yuan to buy medicine, which was a huge expense.

More importantly, this Chinese medicine was bought for Xiao Min.

Why was Xu Mo the one paying?

Gu Yuxin couldn't help but have such a question in her mind.

In fact, Xu Mo didn't have much money when he was in high school. The financial power of Xu Mo's family was in the hands of Xu Mo's mother. His father had two hundred yuan of pocket money every month. If he had major expenses, he could apply with his mother. , and Xu Mo usually doesn't have a penny. Only when needed, his mother will give him some change.

This one hundred and two, my mother was happy today because of her job transfer. Xu Mo took the opportunity to ask for help buying Chinese medicine, and his mother casually gave him two hundred yuan.

When giving money, Chen Lirong did not forget to tell Xu Mo not to pay too much, but to remember to bargain with the boss.

Xu Mo's father, on the other hand, was more generous and said: "Nowadays, Chinese medicine stores all clearly mark their prices, how can they bargain?"

"You are not a family member and don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive." Chen Lirong rolled her eyes at Xu Zhiyuan.

Xu Mo paid the money and asked casually: "How did you sell this stone honey?"

The clerk knew that Xu Mo had purchasing power, so he did not look down upon him. He said directly: "This is wild mountain honey picked from the virgin forest of Yunnan. It is thickly layered along the entire mountain. If someone in your family has a cough, you can take it." When you get home at one point, just pinch a little and drink it with water, and your cough will be relieved immediately."

The so-called stone honey is honey that wild bees collect and dry between rocks. The piece Xu Mo is holding is a honeycomb dug out directly. The top is stacked layer by layer. It feels dirty, but the top is indeed solidified. The amber crystals look natural at first glance.

The elderly have a lot of phlegm. If they drink some stone honey soaked in water, it can relieve cough and reduce phlegm.

Xu Mo asked the clerk how much a pound of stone honey cost.

The clerk replied: "Fifty yuan a pound."

The price scared several people who were traveling with Xu Mo. Xu Mo also thought it was too expensive, so he put it down casually.

Seeing that Xu Mo didn't want it anymore, the clerk said, "Seeing as you bought so many things, if you really want it, you can get it cheaper."

"How much cheaper?"

"What do you think of thirty?"

Xu Mo hesitated: "How about twenty?"

The clerk glanced at Xu Mo and said, "Twenty, just twenty!"

When Gu Yuze saw that something worth fifty yuan was sold for twenty, he realized that he got a bargain and said directly: "I'll give you a pound for twenty!"

Gu Yuxin hit her brother and said, "Why are you just joining in the fun?"

Gu Yuze laughed playfully: "It's so good to sell fifty items for twenty. Let's buy some and go home to drink for our parents. Didn't Xu Mo say, it's a good thing!" Gu Yuxin rolled her eyes, no. I like the way my brother’s bag looks so conspicuous.

The clerk was naturally happy after selling the goods, and wrapped up all the stone honey they selected.

So everyone left the pharmacy with a full load.

Gu Yuze couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart, so he pinched a small piece of Shimi, put it in his mouth and smashed it. He couldn't help but say it was really sweet.

"Sister, try it, it's sweeter than Alpine sugar!"

Gu Yuxin said: "Didn't you say I bought it to make tea for my parents?"

"Hey, let me help my parents taste it first to see if it's poisonous. Xu Mo, do you have anything good that you can recommend?" Gu Yuze asked Xu Mo.

Xu Mo said: "This stone honey is fake."

"Ah?" Gu Yuze was smacking Shimi happily in his mouth. He was shocked when he heard this and quickly spat out Shimi: "Fake? What do you mean by fake?"

Gu Yuxin was also shocked and asked Xu Mo why he said that.

Xu Mo told Gu Yuze that there would be no problem if he ate it.

"This is made by feeding brown sugar to bees. If you don't believe it, just go back and soak it in water and try it. It's just ordinary sugar soaked in water." Xu Mo said very firmly.

Gu Yuze frowned upon hearing this, turned back to Nuoda's Chinese medicine store, and said, "Such a big store sells fakes!"

With that said, Gu Yuze planned to go back.

Xu Mo stopped him and asked him what he was doing.

"I'm going to find him. Didn't he say that he would pay ten for every fake one?" Gu Yuze said angrily.

"You just bought 20 yuan worth of stone honey, so the compensation is only 200 yuan. Besides, people think you are a child and they may not pay attention to you." Xu Mo said.

"Me," Gu Yuze was speechless for a moment and muttered, "Do you want me to suffer the loss of being mute like this?"

"What do you have to suffer from being dumb? It's not like you paid for it." Gu Yuxin said that when we gave money together just now, Xu Mo gave it together. Although Gu Yuxin said no, Xu Mo said it was okay.

When it was brought up at this time, Gu Yuze became even more angry and said, "Then we can't let my brother-in-law suffer!"

After being reminded by Xu Mo, Gu Yuze's title changed.

Gu Yuxin blushed and reached out to hit Gu Yuze again: "What are you talking about!"

Xu Mo said, although Shi Mi is fake, it is not a big problem to take it back to make tea and drink it. If you don't want it, just give it to me. It will be of great use to me.

It doesn't sound like the authentic Shi Mi, plus Xu Mo said he was useful.

Gu Yuze gave it to Xu Mo without even thinking about it.

The four of them followed the road for a while, but when they reached the intersection, they separated because their families were not together.

When they separated, Gu Yuxin looked at Xu Mo and wanted to say goodbye, but she didn't know how to say it.

Xu Mo also looked at Gu Yuxin.

The two looked at each other, both wanting to say something, but at the same time they tacitly said nothing.
