The shopkeeper's words cheered up Song Tuanyuan again.
Forget it, Mr. Hao will take things slowly. At present, we will first solve the problem of the Chen family boy's prescription and the five hundred wen he owes Ji Chang'an.
"There are ten kilograms of dendrobium, ten cents per catty, a total of one hundred cents, twelve kilograms of angelica root, thirty cents per catty, that's..." The shopkeeper was counting with an abacus.
"The total is four hundred and six!" Song Tuanyuan shouted out the total.
The shopkeeper was stunned. He added the twelve thirty cents and finally calculated four hundred and sixty cents. He was stunned for a moment.
"Aunt Song is so good at arithmetic?" asked the shopkeeper.
Song Tuanyuan smiled: "It's just a formula!"
"What formula?" The shopkeeper immediately became interested.
Song Tuanyuan smiled and said: "I will teach the shopkeeper the formula. Can the shopkeeper give me five hundred coins and borrow the pharmacy to make a prescription for me?"
The shopkeeper nodded immediately.
Song Tuanyuan handed over the multiplication tables 1 to 5 to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a long time, took out his abacus and kept calculating, trying to calculate one by one.
Song Tuanyuan smiled: "Then I won't disturb the shopkeeper. I'll use the shopkeeper's pharmacy first!"
The shopkeeper was anxiously calculating the formula and quickly waved his hand.
Song Tuanyuan went into the pharmacy and made a simple massage asthma prescription using a bamboo tube.
Song Tuanyuan's prescriptions were all finished, but the shopkeeper was still pulling the abacus there.
Song Tuanyuan smiled and took Song Fuchuan out the door.
Although Song Fuchuan was not interested in doing business, he found Song Tuanyuan's multiplication formula interesting and asked, "Mom, how come you know these things?"
"Your grandpa taught me!" Song Tuanyuan said haha. Anyway, Mr. Song is dead and there is no evidence of his death.
"I only taught the simplest formulas just now, and the later ones are the most difficult. Such a powerful formula only sells for 40 yuan, which is a bit of a loss!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Five hundred Wen was just the money to repay Ji Changan, but it was also the money Song Fuchuan needed to study.
Song Tuanyuan thought for a while and went to Ji Changan's shop.
Ji Changan opened a grocery store in the town. It didn't look big, but the items he sold were very miscellaneous. Moreover, Song Tuanyuan had seen it in front of the store before, and the people who came to this store were either rich or noble.
Song Tuanyuan entered the shop and looked around.
"Ma'am, what do you want?" A waiter came up to greet me.
"I'm looking for your boss!" Song Tuanyuan said.
The man looked at Song Tuanyuan.
"Tell your boss that I'm here to pay back the money!" Song Tuanyuan said.
The waiter nodded and ordered someone to go inside.
After a while, someone came out. It was the young man named Dashan who had been following Ji Changan. He invited Song Tuanyuan to come in.
Song Tuanyuan did not expect that the yard behind a small grocery store would be so big, with two entrances and two exits, and a garden path. It looked a bit like the backyard of a wealthy family, and it really didn't look like a place where a businessman lived.
For some reason, Song Tuanyuan always felt that this small courtyard seemed familiar, as if he had seen it before somewhere.
Dashan took Song Tuanyuan into the hall, served tea, and then went to invite Ji Changan.
Song Tuanyuan looked around a few times while drinking tea.
The decoration in the hall is simple but charming, especially the aroma from the sandalwood stove that makes Song Tuanyuan feel familiar and makes her feel sleepy.
Song Tuanyuan cheered up and drank two more cups of tea, then he saw Ji Changan slowly approaching.
Ji Changan wore a new white dress with lotus flowers embroidered on it today. He was even more impressed by his delicate and beautiful facial features and his tall and straight figure.
Song Tuanyuan looked at it, feeling a little sad in her heart. Thinking that in her prime youth, she had become a thirty-one-year-old woman in ancient times. When she met such a handsome man, she could only live a happy life!
Ji Changan came and sat on the main seat.
Song Tuanyuan then stood up calmly and said: "Mr. Ji, I'm here today to pay back the money!"
Ji Changan smiled and said, "Okay!"
Song Tuanyuan was not in a hurry to get the money, but just smiled and asked: "Mr. Ji, I want to ask you, it's the end of the month, do you need someone to take inventory in your shop?"
Ji Changan still smiled as warmly as jade and asked: "What does Aunt Song mean? Is she planning to come to my shop to do an inventory and pay off debts with merit?"
Song Tuanyuan smiled and said: "It's not like using work to pay debts. It's just that I have a family secret here that can save 90% of the energy of the accountant. If the young master needs it, how about paying the five hundred silver coins?"
"What formula?" Ji Changan asked.
Song Tuanyuan quickly retorted: "One to one makes one, one to two makes two..."
"Two two equals four, three three equals nine, nine nine eighty one, right?" Ji Changan suddenly spoke and continued. After reciting, he looked at Song Tuanyuan with a smile.
Song Tuanyuan's eyes suddenly widened. How could this ancient person know the multiplication formula?
Ji Changan smiled and said: "If Mrs. Song wants to use this formula to pay for the five hundred coins, I'm afraid she won't be able to!"
Song Tuanyuan asked in a low voice: "How could you?"
Isn’t this a modern multiplication table?
Ji Changan did not answer Song Tuanyuan's words, but looked at Song Tuanyuan with a faint look and whispered: "Mrs. Song, if you really don't have money to pay back, you can pay the debt with work. I am short of a cook here!"
Song Tuanyuan frowned, raised her eyes and asked, "How long will it take?"
Ji Chang'an thought for a while: "My cook's monthly salary is one hundred cents, so including interest, it takes about half a year!"
Song Tuanyuan got up and left. He would be pissed to death if he was summoned by this green tea man every day for half a year!
She might as well go back and work hard for another three days to make medicine!
Ji Changan looked at Song Tuanyuan's back and curled his lips slightly.
That person may really be back!
Song Fuchuan was waiting outside the shop. When he saw Song Tuanyuan coming out, he followed Song Tuanyuan and walked behind him, looking a little downcast.
Song Tuanyuan stopped, but Song Fujian failed to stop and almost bumped into Song Tuanyuan.
"Mom, why don't you leave?" Song Fu said. He raised his eyes and suddenly saw the three characters "Nine Academy".
Song Fujian was stunned for a moment.
"The silver has not been returned, so I just collected a tael of silver. You should hand over the gold first!" Song Tuanyuan handed the purse to Song Fujian, which contained all the money of the Song family.
"Mother..." Song Fujian was speechless for a moment.
"You want to study, but if you have a holiday, you will go home and help with some work at home. We agreed that you have to earn these five hundred coins by yourself, and you will also have to earn the four treasures of the study you will use for your studies in the future. Not only you, you
The same is true for the second brother, I drink a bowl of water evenly!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Song Fujian nodded.
Song Fuchuan handed over a bunch of gold and came out with a smile on his face.
Song Tuanyuan took Song Fuchuan home. Since he didn't have any money on him, the two of them walked back.
Although it was hard along the way, the mother and son talked and laughed and did not realize how long the road was.
Things went relatively smoothly on Song Tuanyuan's side, but something big happened on Song Fuxin's side.
