The man continued: "The other people had left three days ago, and it has been thirteen days since the wooden signs were distributed in the border town. The official in charge left yesterday just because General Li told him that the gentleman left
You asked me to help you take a look before. If someone comes over, help him stamp a stamp on the wooden sign. Only by stamping Ning Cheng's stamp can you enter the next city smoothly!"
The two people in Yunxi looked at each other. The person in charge would only wait thirteen days at most. If they wanted to be safe, they would only wait ten days at most. If the person in charge left yesterday, the longest time they would be given would not exceed nine days. From now on
From Ningcheng to Zhucheng, it would take them eight days to walk at their speed, so they were pressed for time.
"Thank you sir, let's repair it and leave now!" Liu Xingzhi clasped his fists. Whether it was because of Li Xi's instructions or other reasons, they were able to enter the city smoothly thanks to the people in front of them.
"Brother, you're welcome!" Seeing their tired faces, the official said no more, said a few words, and left.
Liu Xingzhi pondered for a while and said: "We were in a hurry ahead and need to make some repairs. Third Grandpa, please take people to stay at the post house. Don't bother to prepare dry food. Let's buy it and leave early tomorrow morning."
"The top priority now is to rest. We will try to compress the trip as much as possible and try to arrive in Zhucheng on the 6th, so as to leave some free time for the rest of the trip. This time, Vice General Li is helping. If no one reminds us next time, we will probably
Got into trouble."
Liu Sanye understood that it was not about saving money now, "Listen to San'er, let's take a quick rest and leave the business of buying and selling things to their young people!"
Ningcheng's posthouse is not far from the city gate. There are wooden signs and copper plates, so moving in is not a problem. After arranging everyone, Liu Xingzhi pulled Yunxi out and whispered: "Compared to the next Zhucheng and Xucheng
Ningcheng is much different than Ningcheng. If you want to sell something, this is the most suitable place besides Beijing!"
Ningcheng is located on a major transportation road, and there are many merchants coming and going, which makes the city look much more prosperous. After they entered the city, they felt that there were small vendors everywhere, and there were many shops around, which made it look very lively.
Xu Dashu and others have been blurry since they entered the city. They felt that one pair of eyes was not enough to see. At this moment, they were called out by Liu Xingzhi to help sell things. I don't know how happy they were.
"Let's go to the medicine shop first!" Yunxi took stock of the things in the space. Those for food, she didn't move for the moment, but she picked the wild ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum and tiger skin, tiger bones and snake gallbladder.
After dealing with such things, plus adding kudzu powder and the like, I think I can make a fortune today.
"Which one to go to?" Liu Xingzhi looked at several pharmacies on both sides of the street. The largest one had the most people and looked very luxurious. The one next to it was deserted. Only a few people came in from time to time. The dilapidated brand.
It seems to be about to fall down. There is only the word "pharmacy" on it, which looks quite impressive!
There are two other hotels, although they are not as luxurious as the most luxurious one, they are much better than this one.
"Go to the empty one!" Yun Xi went through his previous memories, pointed at the store and said, "I once heard my father say that every city has a government-run pharmacy, which mainly collects medicines.
, to supplement the treatment of diseases. Precious medicines will be sent directly to the palace and the hands of some nobles, while commonly used medicinal materials are uniformly prepared by the government. If there is an epidemic somewhere, these will be allocated directly! "
"The price charged by this shop will be lower than that of a private pharmacy, but as long as it is usable, it will charge a large amount. The amount of kudzu root and kudzu root powder we have is a bit large, and ordinary pharmacies can't eat it at all, so it is better to go directly
Come here and make a purchase at once, so you can negotiate the price!" Yun Xi explained, and the most important thing is that she doesn't want to talk about it just for the little extra, so it's better to have it clearly marked.
Liu Xingzhi nodded and led her into the drugstore. The store was not big, but it was very clean. There was only a waiter-looking person standing at the counter.
Seeing Yun Xi and others entering, the waiter's expression did not change much, and he greeted: "Do you want to buy medicinal materials or sell medicinal materials? Our prices are all in this book. If they are top-quality medicinal materials, they will be increased accordingly!"
Yunxi asked someone to take out a piece of kudzu root, handed it over, and said with a smile: "The second brother should know this thing. I have a lot, so I want to talk to the shopkeeper!"
"It's kudzu root, good stuff!" The waiter said, "It's not completely dried yet, so the price may be cheaper. I can negotiate this. Our shopkeeper..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man in his forties in robes came out of the inner room. He coughed for a long time before he stopped. Seeing Yunxi and the others, they looked over and said apologetically: "Guests, I'm so sorry.
, I have this old problem, I keep coughing when the weather gets cold, I have to wait until summer next year to get better!"
"The shopkeeper has chest tightness, shortness of breath, and often coughs up phlegm?" Yun Xi saw that he looked very tired, and thought that the cough was quite serious, leading to lack of sleep and dry lips. This is a symptom of dryness when dryness prevails.
Then he took out a small bottle from his sleeve, actually from the space, and handed it over and said: "This is the Qiuli ointment I made myself. It is very good for coughs. You can try it from the shopkeeper!"
The shopkeeper looked at her in surprise and said, "Young lady knows medicine? I've heard of pear ointment before, but is it the same as this one?"
Yun Xi nodded. Qiuli ointment, which was called snow pear ointment in ancient times, has a good effect on seasonal coughs. When paired with a light diet, it can greatly relieve it!
"It seems that only noble people have this thing. How did the girl get it?"
"The shopkeeper will try it first!" Yun Xi said without comment.
The shopkeeper smelled it, then asked the waiter to bring some water, and poured some in. The air was instantly filled with a sweet smell.
After taking a sip, I felt that the itchiness in my throat was significantly reduced, and I even felt a lot more comfortable in my chest.
"Good things, girl, can you sell me some?" Sensing the effect of the pear ointment, the shopkeeper's eyes suddenly lit up, "The price is determined by the girl, I won't hide it from you, every year in autumn and winter, I always want to die, this
Although the illness is life-threatening, it is really uncomfortable!”
Yun Xi understood that there was a time when she kept coughing and went to the hospital for treatment, but it kept coming back again and again. Her mother used things like Qiuli paste and loquat paste, combined with her diet, to help her cure it.
"We will talk about this part later. Let's first look at how to purchase the medicinal materials. As for this Qiuli ointment!" Yun Xi pondered and said: "Even if it is a prescription and the price is right, we can still negotiate!"
Based on her own experience, Chuanbei loquat paste is more effective than Qiuli paste. When they are stable, they can make some Chuanbei loquat paste and sell it. The recipe for Qiuli paste will become dispensable!
