Chapter 223 Precious Herbs
The second sister-in-law sighed meaningfully. She was not very interested in the novel written by Lao Wu.Of course it would be best if you can sell it for money. If you don't sell it, you can eat and drink for free at home. No matter what, you have to find a way to get Lao Wu out to work.

Now that Lao Wu's body is almost healthy, he can't just eat what he has at home all day long.The second sister-in-law didn't say these words immediately. She couldn't bear the irritation Cheng Haiwen received.

Seeing that everyone had nothing in need, Bai Meixi got on her bicycle and went to the county seat.When I was approaching the county seat, I took out the packed Hericium mushrooms from the space and went to find Master Zhang from the medicinal material factory.

To say who these medicinal sellers are looking forward to the most, it is Bai Meixi.The Hericium mushrooms she brought over were not only very well-proportioned in size, but also of top quality, very effective, and in large quantities. He was able to make a lot of money from them.

But if she knew where she got such top-quality Hericium, Master Zhang would not only make a profit from the price difference.It's just that Bai Meixi was too vigilant and didn't say anything no matter what.Seeing Bai Meixi coming, Master Zhang hurriedly walked out, "I finally looked forward to having you here. I haven't seen you for a long time. How many Hericium mushrooms are there to sell this time?"

Bai Meixi put the bamboo basket on the counter, "Weigh it, that's all." She looked around and said, "Do you have any other medicinal seedlings here? If so, you can give it to me. I'll go back and try it. Tried."

Anyway, she is selling medicinal materials. If there are medicinal seedlings that can be borrowed here, she can go back and plant them. When the scale becomes large, she can come here and sell them, which can increase part of her income.

"Are you planning to plant a medicinal herb garden yourself? Yes, there are, but many of the things here are not suitable for growing here." A lot of them were shipped from the Northeast.

It's not that Master Zhang doesn't want Bai Meixi to grow medicinal herbs, it's just that some medicinal herbs are very delicate, and the climate and soil here are simply not suitable for them to survive.Otherwise, why would we still waste manpower, material and financial resources to transport it from other cities far away?

"Just give me some to try first. I'll tell you if I can grow it. If I can cultivate it, I can reduce some of your shipping costs." Listening to Bai Meixi's words, Master Zhang nodded, "Okay, I'll go and give it to you." Look for it, and if I find something fresh, I’ll give it to you.”

Although he didn't know whether Bai Meixi could grow those precious medicinal herbs, Master Zhang thought that even if he was the one who maintained the supply of Hericium medicinal materials, he would do his best.

After a while, several medicinal plants were brought out from behind, with wet soil still attached to them. "This is Ganoderma lucidum. It's a little small, but you can go back and give it a try. There is also a Polygonum multiflorum. I will write the names of the rest for you."

Master Zhang said that other medicinal materials can be given to Bai Meixi for free, but there will be a charge for Polygonum multiflorum and Ganoderma lucidum.Those things are very expensive, and they come with a cost. Just give them to her. If they grow, it will be fine. If they don't, it will be a loss for their medicinal company. Master Zhang cannot afford this loss.

"Calculate how much Hericium is worth and deduct it from the middle."

Master Zhang admired Bai Meixi’s cheerful personality. After weighing the Hericium mushrooms, he gave her a look. "The total is three pounds and two taels, 32 yuan. I'll charge you 2 yuan for the cost of Polygonum multiflorum and Ganoderma lucidum."

Bai Meixi felt distressed, 2 yuan was not a small amount, but for the sake of the long term, she gritted her teeth and nodded. "If I can successfully grow it, will you also receive these herbs?"

"As long as you can grow the medicinal materials, I will accept the full price. If the quality is the same as Hericium, the price will definitely be very high."

After receiving Master Zhang's promise, Bai Meixi carefully collected the seedlings of the medicinal herbs.She was not sure whether these things could be grown, especially Ganoderma lucidum and Polygonum multiflorum, which seemed to have been dug up for a long time.Although there is still some moist soil on the roots, whether it can survive is still a big question.It seems that during this time, we need to take good care of them.

"Is there a newspaper office here, Master Zhang?" Bai Meixi is not particularly familiar with newspaper offices.

"Yes, there is a People's Daily and a Youth Daily over there. They are not too far away."

After listening to Master Zhang's words, Bai Meixi said to leave the bicycle here temporarily and come back to pick it up later.Holding the envelope in his hand, he went straight to the newspaper office.The first one to arrive was the People's Daily. I looked up at the plaque and saw that it was too big.

Bai Meixi was a little worried. For such a large-scale newspaper, the review must be very strict. It should be a bit difficult for Cheng Haiwen, who is writing a novel for the first time.If you want to publish it in People's Daily, you really need some background.

Go check out another newspaper first. Choosing a smaller newspaper will at least have a better chance of winning.Standing at the door of Youth New Daily, Bai Meixi hesitated for a long time. Compared with People's Daily, this one is indeed much smaller.

She was still a little worried. If there was no news after sending it in, Cheng Haiwen would be depressed.But thinking of Cheng Haiwen's expectant eyes, Bai Meixi could only take the gamble once, "Excuse me, can I accept novels here? Serials and short stories are also acceptable."

Bai Meixi knows Cheng Haiwen's thoughts. The novel she is writing now is a novel, but if the newspaper requires it, it can be revised into a short story.You can find opportunities to write longer stories in the future, but the important thing now is to give Cheng Haiwen confidence.

"You're here to submit an article."

Hearing Bai Meixi's voice, a somewhat dirty man walked out of the room. He glanced at Bai Meixi and pointed to the chair next to her, asking her to sit down first.

"Thank you. I'm here to submit a manuscript. I want to ask if you accept novels, long or short stories." Bai Meixi handed the manuscript to the person opposite. She didn't know that this person was a reporter from the newspaper. , I'm still the person in charge of the newspaper, so I'd better ask if I'll accept it anyway.

"Hello, I am Li Zimu, the person in charge of this newspaper. Please give me some time so that I can read the content." Li Zimu took the manuscript and looked at it. Although it only has more than 3000 words, the content is pretty good.

It's a bit raw, but still very emotional. "You can leave the manuscript here for now. I'll discuss it with the others. If there is any news, I will notify you, or you can come over and take a look in a few days."

Li Zimu said that he had no way to decide now whether he could publish this novel and had to discuss it with other people at the newspaper.They have just been established here not long ago, and everyone is responsible for it. There are things that need to be discussed.
