On the way to escape from famine, I amaze the world with my medical practice

This Rongen Hall occupies a full three-storey space. Once inside, there are many doctors, doctors and apprentices.

There were a lot of people moving around, and several people stepped aside and stood there for a while before continuing to walk in.

Ye Xiangxiang asked, "Are there any wild ginseng for sale? I want the kind grown in the mountains. What's the price?"

The apprentice at the counter responded, "There are three grades, the cheapest is one tael and a half of silver, and the most expensive is ten taels of silver and one tael. Which one do you want?"

"Can you show it to me?" Ye Xiangxiang didn't know the price, so it would be best to come here directly to inquire.

Look at the quality of other people's homes and you'll know how much you can sell yours for.

The apprentice was patient and took out the wild ginseng. The quality of the several grades was very different. Ye Xiangxiang knew it after seeing it.

Most of the ones I dug out were second-rate, some were average, and the superior ones couldn’t be found.

But some of them are red ginseng, which should be more valuable.

The apprentice asked, "Which one do you want?"

Ye Hongchang then asked, "If you dare ask the shopkeeper, we also have some wild ginseng on hand. I heard from Dr. Li from Jirentang in Wushan County that Rong'en Hall will collect wild ginseng, so I brought it over to have a look."

After saying that, he put a piece of red ginseng directly on the counter.

As soon as the apprentice saw the red ginseng, he knew that the shopkeeper would be interested, so he hurriedly said, "Guys, wait a minute, I'll call the shopkeeper right away."

After a while, they were invited into a nearby room, and then a middle-aged man came in.

"May I ask where the wild ginseng is?"

Ye Hongchang took it out and said, "Shopkeeper, please take a look. We dug this ourselves and dried it ourselves. There is absolutely no adulteration."

He picked it up, smelled it, and said with a smile, "Rong'en Hall has been collecting wild ginseng for many years. I can tell the authenticity just by looking at it. I don't need to explain it."

The shopkeeper put down the red ginseng and asked, "How many do you have on hand?"

Ye Xiangxiang smiled slightly when he heard this. "There are not many red ginseng like this, only about three taels, and some others. Together they weigh more than a pound."

The shopkeeper said, "Show them all to me. If they are cooked well, I will collect them all for you today."

They didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Ye Hongchang took out the wild ginseng from the bag and spread it out on the table for him to see.

Except for red ginseng, the other ginseng was indeed relatively average. Ye Xiangxiang dug it out just to use it for himself and not to make money.

Moreover, although there are many medicinal materials in Fuyu Mountain, she has yet to encounter wild ginseng that is of good quality. It is rare to find it.

The shopkeeper roughly divided them up and gave the prices one by one.

"The second-rate ones cost four cents and one tael, and the medium ones give you two taels. These red ginseng..."

Ye Xiangxiang smiled and said, "Shopkeeper, this red ginseng is precious. I want to take it home to replenish the health of my elders, so I won't sell it yet."

Before the shopkeeper could speak, she blocked his words.

The shopkeeper's expression changed and he hurriedly said, "Girl, ordinary wild ginseng is very good for replenishing the body. Red ginseng like this is rare, and it is really a waste to use it to replenish the body."

"Don't waste it. The shopkeeper also said that red ginseng is rare. I thought the quality is not good and there are not many, so I can't sell it for much, so I might as well take it all home."

The shopkeeper is a good person and doesn't know what Ye Xiangxiang means. This is to ask him not to lower the price.

He smiled and said, "It's rare for you to come here. Since you're here specifically to sell ginseng, there's no reason to take it back. I'll be more relaxed. I'll give you twenty taels of silver for these three taels of red ginseng. What's the price?" The three of them were all horrified, but they didn't show it on their faces.

Ye Xiangxiang found it difficult to do what he did, so Ye Hongchang said, "Your grandma is still strong. How about raising her with ordinary wild ginseng first, and keeping the good ones later?"

"Okay then." Ye Xiangxiang nodded and agreed.

The shopkeeper just pretended not to understand and said with a smile, "Come with me and give you some money. I made a lot of money this time. I will be happy when I go back. This happiness will make my health better."

A package of wild ginseng was sold for a total of thirty-nine taels.

Ye Hongchang asked for the banknotes and a few pieces of silver. Holding them in his arms, it felt unreal that he had sold them for so much money.

No wonder Dr. Li suggested that they come to Fucheng. If he had known that it was so valuable, there would be no need to go all the way.

After returning to the inn, Ye Liwen said, "These medicinal materials are dug from the mountains in Xiangxiang. They are really powerful."

He admired her from the bottom of his heart. He could only read but had no such ability.

Ye Xiangxiang said with a smile, "I dug when I came across it. I didn't think about how much money I would need to exchange for it, but who knew it was still a big income. It looks like I will go to the mountains more often in the future."

Ye Hongchang said, "Brother Wen will go to the magistrate's house tomorrow to attend a banquet, and we will go out for a walk. If we encounter the roast duck that Brother Xuan wants to eat, we can let him eat as much as he can."

After a night's rest, Ye Liwen changed into decent clothes the next day, and Shen Shixu went to wait at the door of Shen's mansion, where he met two classmates who were also studying at the county school.

After seeing Ye Liwen, they did not come forward to talk, but just nodded at him, and Ye Liwen bowed slightly in return.

After a while, the door of the mansion opened wide, the concierge checked the post, and everyone at the door entered one by one.

Ye Hongchang and Ye Xiangxiang saw that Ye Liwen had successfully entered, and then walked back.

Ye Xiangxiang said, "I think my eldest brother is not doing well in school in the county. Those two people just now should be his classmates. They are dressed in silk and satin. It seems that they come from a wealthy family. They are also a little unfriendly to my eldest brother."

"This is what he has to face." Ye Hongchang sighed, "No matter how hard Brother Wen works, he can't change his origin. He is from a poor family. Even if he has the ability in the future and works as an official, it will be etched in his heart. Marks on the body.”

A child from a poor family, if you get better, people will praise you for your ability and say that you come from a clean family. If you remain calm all your life, you will be looked down upon by others no matter where you are. This is normal.

Ye Hongchang also wanted to find out more about the county school and find a way to protect his nephew, but he also wanted Ye Liwen to have some experience.

Ye Liwen has been gentle-tempered since he was a child. He speaks and acts in a soft-spoken manner and is easily bullied.

But if he doesn't change and someone is protecting him now, his family won't be able to protect him in the future unless he stops moving up.

However, Ye Liwen is extremely talented and academic. As long as he is willing to work hard, Wushan County School will not be his final destination.

If you can't even cope with your classmates from the county school, how will you deal with your colleagues and subordinates if you really want to be an official in the future?

Ye Xiangxiang also thought of this, so he didn't say much.

Anyway, the eldest brother doesn't have any scars on his body, just not beaten.

As for the rest, he can only deal with it himself.

"Dad, let's go find a good restaurant tonight. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. We are out celebrating the festival, so we have to have a good meal."

Ye Hongchang smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll do whatever you want."
