Chapter 43: Meeting Liu Rumei

When Chen Yutian and his wife saw the visitor, they looked very respectful and politely invited him into the house to drink tea.

But this man raised his fist at Mrs. Jia and said, "Sister, you're welcome. We met on the mountain."

Mrs. Jia nodded, "Yes, yes, your name is Yang Dazhi."

"Yes, my name is Yang Dazhi."

After the visitor finished speaking, he turned to look at Chen Yutian and said, "Brother Chen, let's go up the mountain."

Chen Yutian was a little surprised, "How about we have a cup of tea before leaving?"

Yang Dazhi shook his head, "No need, we can just go up the mountain. There is a brother waiting outside the village."

Chen Yutian nodded and picked up his clothes tightly, "Okay, let's leave now."

He turned back to his mother-in-law and said, "Go back and get two hard dishes. Brother Yang and I will have a drink at noon."

The two of them walked out of the house while talking. As soon as Chen Yutian left the village, he looked forward and seemed a little hesitant. In front of him, Lidong, Dayong and others were building a culvert for Chen Xiaobei.

But now that his head was exposed, it was too late to retreat, so Chen Yutian had no choice but to bite the bullet and move forward.

Lidong saw him coming and greeted him warmly, "Uncle Yutian, where are you going?"

Chen Yutian'er laughed, "My nephew is here, and he doesn't have anything to eat for lunch. I'll take him for a walk in the mountains."

Yang Dazhi nodded to everyone and walked over one after another.

They left on the front foot, and then started chatting with each other at the beginning of winter.

One person spoke first, "Why have you never seen his nephew before?"

Lidong rolled his eyes at him, "Do you still recognize all the relatives in the village? Can you still recognize your own nephew?"

"It's just that I see you, you are just thinking about it all day long." Someone next to you said to you.

At this time, Dayong also spoke, "I think I have seen this person somewhere."

He tilted his head and thought for a moment. He suddenly seemed to think of something.

Just as he was about to speak, Lidong shouted, "Dayong, hurry up and get a stone, don't be lazy."

Dayong agreed and turned around to move the rocks, and the matter was dropped.

At this time, Chen Xiaobei had arrived at the county seat. During this trip to the county seat, he was leisurely and at ease, and even took a nap on the carriage.

First he went to a restaurant and sold some fish. As expected, the shopkeeper gave him three cents for the big one and two cents for the small one. The two fish were five coppers, which was equivalent to a day's wages for a strong laborer.

After selling this, he turned back to Huahao Hall to find Jia Wannian.

As soon as he entered Huahao Hall, he bumped into someone, and it turned out to be Liu Rumei.

The two looked at each other and were both stunned.

Xiaoqing next to him coughed when he saw this, put his hands on his hips and yelled at Chen Xiaobei, "Hey, you are so rude, where do you look when you see my young lady?"

Chen Xiaobei was thinking, where should I look? I just looked at her, what was wrong with me.

Liu Rumei reached out and patted Xiaoqing's arm. She faced Chen Xiaobei with a smile on her face, looking very enthusiastic, "Mr. Chen, are you also coming to Huahaotang?"

After saying that, she turned to look at Jia Wannian who was standing aside, "Shopkeeper Jia, if Mr. Chen needs any medicinal materials, just give them to him and keep the account in my Liu family's house."

Jia Wannian, who was originally accompanying Smiley, froze when he heard these words. Just as he was about to explain, Chen Xiaobei spoke hurriedly.

"Ah, Miss Liu, it's okay. I just feel a little headache. Come and grab some medicine."

I thought it would be over with this fooling around, but by chance, someone ran in from outside.

As soon as he entered the door, he was caught off guard and bumped into Chen Xiaobei. Not much else, Chen Xiaobei lost his grip on the baggage and fell to the ground with a thud.

The visitor rushed to Jia Wannian and grabbed his hand, "Mr. Jia, come with me quickly, my dad, my dad..."

Without any explanation, he dragged Jia Wannian and walked out.

While struggling, Jia Wannian turned around and said to Chen Xiaobei, "Brother Xiaobei, please wait for me for a while, and I'll be right back."

Chen Xiaobei agreed, turned back and lowered his body, intending to pick up the baggage.

At this time, the bundle fell to the ground and spread out, revealing the Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng inside.

Xiaoqing only glanced down and shouted in surprise, "Ginseng, this is ginseng."

Liu Rumei looked down, her expression full of surprise.

"Master Chen, can you please take a moment to speak."

Chen Xiaobei nodded, carefully packed the baggage, and picked it up again.

Follow Liu Rumei out of Huahao Hall.

"Mr. Chen, let me ask you one more question, where did your ginseng come from?"

When he walked out just now, Chen Xiaobei had already thought about it several times in his mind, but he couldn't say that this was discovered in Qingniu Mountain. After all, Liu Rumei had also been to the mountain.

"Oh, this is passed down from my wife's family."

Xiaoqing's eyes widened, "Chen Xiaobei, you are really telling lies. The soil on the Ganoderma lucidum is all fresh."

Chen Xiaobei nodded, "You are right, my wife's family grew this Ganoderma lucidum. Shopkeeper Jia wanted to plant it again, so I brought him the soil."

Liu Rumei's expression became serious, she looked at Chen Xiaobei and said softly, "Mr. Chen, when you go back, can you ask your wife to help find a century-old ginseng."

Chen Xiaobei scratched his head. Cui Hongyu had told him about ginseng, "A hundred-year-old ginseng, Miss Liu, please forgive me, this is something that can only be found but not sought."

"You're right. It's precisely because it's so rare that I want to ask Mr. Chen for help."

Seeing that Chen Xiaobei had not said anything, Xiao Qing next to him continued, "Miss, we don't need to beg him. I will go back to the capital right now. I still don't believe it. I can't find a century-old ginseng. Brother Liu will be fine."

Chen Xiaobei was shocked when he heard this, "What's wrong with Brother Liu?"

Liu Rumei nodded, "I was seriously injured, stayed in the mountains for another night, suffered from wind and cold, and my body is extremely weak. I need century-old ginseng to make up for it bit by bit."

As soon as he heard this, Chen Xiaobei felt a little restless for a moment. He felt a natural closeness to Liu Tie in his heart, "Miss Liu, don't worry, I'll go back and ask if I can get one."

A hundred-year-old ginseng.”

After saying that, he looked down at the two trees in his bag and said, "If you don't mind, take these two first."

Before Liu Rumei could say anything, Xiao Qing looked disgusted and said, "It's not a hundred years old, and it's of no use taking it back, so let's just skip it."

Liu Rumei bowed slightly, "In that case, I'd like to thank Mr. Chen. I'll leave first."

Chen Xiaobei waited in Huahao Hall for half an hour when Jia Wannian came back.

Seeing Chen Xiaobei this time, Jia Wannian was even more enthusiastic.

He let him into the back room and ordered the waiter to serve him a pot of tea.

After drinking a few sips of tea, Jia Wannian took two ingots and ten taels of silver.

This is obviously more than the price of two ginseng and two Ganoderma lucidum.

Jia Wannian said with a smile on his face, "Brother Xiaobei, can you get a century-old ginseng tree?"
