Chapter 54

Anyway, with his skills, he can stew the heart, liver, lungs, and large intestines and put them in a restaurant, and he can sell them for one or two taels per plate, which is a sure-fire business.

The gentlemen didn't expect that they could sell water for two taels of silver, so they were so happy that they couldn't even see it.

"It's not a loss, it's not a loss! The chef is really a kind person!"

Being put on such a high hat, the head chef felt better, "To put it bluntly, we are not doing good deeds, we are doing business, we must be honest! Come two people and weigh these two pigs."

Both ends?

All of them?

Qin Daping was so happy that he almost fainted. How could he expect it to go so smoothly!

The two pigs were weighed whole and weighed a total of 420 kilograms, which cost them 12 taels and 600 taels of silver. Including the water, the chef generously asked his subordinates to give them a total of 15 taels of silver.

"Next time if you have any game, please bring it to me."

Qin Daping has never seen so much money at this age in his life, and the hands holding the money are shaking.

The head chef patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Fellow fellow, your little girl is really well raised. She is sweet and well-behaved. Does she have a husband?"

Although Zhao Jin'er is married, she is only fourteen years old and has not yet had a haircut, so she has never combed her hair. She still wears a big shiny braid as she did at home.

The chef's family also had an unmarried son, so he started thinking about it.

Qin Daping smiled and said, "This is not my daughter, she is my niece-in-law."

The chef was disappointed, "Huh? Are you getting married at such a young age?"

Qin Daping said, "Her mother's family is in more difficulty, so let's marry her off in exchange for some betrothal gifts to supplement the family's income."

The head chef turned from disappointment to sympathy and said to Qin Daping, "Your family is so lucky to have such a smart girl! I told you, folks, don't be angry. If it weren't for the kindness of this girl, you two pigs, I would at most

Give me ten taels of silver."

How could Qin Daping be angry? "My mother has always said that this girl is a blessing. Since she came to our house, our life has become more and more prosperous."

Zhao Jiner was so embarrassed by the praise, "I am lucky. I married into a good family, and my grandmother and auntie love me."

Qin Daping was very happy to see his nephew-in-law speaking for his family like this.

After coming out of Zuiwenglou, the two men took Zhao Jiner to the medicine shop.

When Zhao Jin'er went in, the two men were waiting at the door smoking cigarettes.

The shopkeeper still had an impression of Zhao Jin'er and asked with a smile, "Is the girl here to get medicine again?"

Zhao Jin'er put down the backpack, "Yes, there is something else I want to ask the shopkeeper."

"What's the matter?"

Zhao Jiner expressed his idea of ​​replacing the whole bird's nests collected in the mountains with broken ones.

The shopkeeper took the bird's nest that she had picked cleanly and said curiously, "Swallows are so delicate. We don't usually have them here, but you can actually find them."

"These ones of yours look good, but they are not from Srivijaya after all. If you want to exchange them, you can't exchange them one for two. I can only give you one and a half times."

This is quite different from Zhao Jin'er's calculation, "Isn't one and a half times too little? Can you exchange one tael for 1 tael or 8 cents?"

Looking at her pitiful little eyes, the shopkeeper almost felt like a bad guy who bullied children.

"I'm really scared of you, girl! It's only one-two-eight dollars for one-two-eight dollars. I don't expect to earn you even a dime and a half. You'll have to come to me to get medicine from now on."

Zhao Jin'er narrowed her eyes and smiled, her eyebrows arched.

"That's for sure. Don't talk about it in the future, I will take medicine today. I have adjusted the prescription and replaced the previous Ophiopogon japonicus, Radix Rehmanniae, and Sichuan Rhizome with Dendrobium, American ginseng and lily."

The shopkeeper looked surprised, "These medicines are not cheap. Compared with the previous ones, the price is at least double."

Zhao Jin'er also knew that the newly replaced medicines were all precious medicines, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's change them."

The last time I sold the fox, I still had 20 taels left. This time I had to use 2 taels to get the medicine, which was only enough for twenty days.

Poor people really can’t afford to be cured!

Carefully, he reached for the money bag from his waist pocket, only to find an unfamiliar brocade bag.

Zhao Jin'er was shocked, he wouldn't have been robbed!

No, why did the thief stuff something into her pocket?

When he opened it, there were three gold ingots inside!
