Pastoral lucky girl's counterattack

Chapter 7 Beautiful Stones

The shopkeeper heard the sound and came out from inside. The shopkeeper was a middle-aged uncle in his 40s with an amiable smile on his face.

Xiao Er stepped forward and whispered a few words to him.The shopkeeper hurriedly walked towards Qiu Laifu and the others.Qiu Laifu hurriedly made use of the child's sweet and lovable advantages to greet the shopkeeper, "Hello, shopkeeper."

After saying hello, he turned his pannier to the shopkeeper so that he could check the contents of the pannier.The shopkeeper could tell at a glance that the notoginseng in the back basket was of top grade.

Panax notoginseng is widely used as the monarch drug of hemostatic agents, and is also used in some tonic prescriptions.The more the better, but the medicinal material Panax notoginseng is particularly picky about the geographical environment, it is generally difficult to grow, and only wild ones can be found.So it has always been a scarce drug.The market price has been high.

The shopkeeper hurriedly asked Xiaoer to come over with a scale and weigh it.However, Qiu Laifu pressed the back basket, squinted his eyes and looked at the shopkeeper, "Uncle shopkeeper, you haven't made an offer yet?"

The shopkeeper patted himself on the forehead, "Look, I forgot about this, don't worry, uncle will definitely give you a real price. How about 500 Wen per catty?"

Qiu Laifu thought to himself that in modern times, most of the Panax notoginseng with this appearance cost 500 to 1000 yuan per catty, and most of them were artificially grown.

And the purchasing power here is almost one penny equivalent to one yuan in modern times, so the Sanqi in my hand is still wild, and five hundred pennies per catty must be considered low.

As a newcomer, I couldn't bargain with the shopkeeper, so I had no choice but to respond to changes with silence, instead of answering.

Seeing Qiu Laifu's response, the shopkeeper was a little confused about what she meant, so he raised the price. "Eight hundred yuan per catty, the price is very high, and I dare not accept it at a high price." Qiu Laifu still felt that the price was low, and it remained the same.

Seeing him like this, the shopkeeper really couldn't guess what he meant. Seeing that Panax notoginseng was indeed a top grade, he couldn't bear to give up, so he had to increase the price again according to the previous situation. It’s the highest price for Panax notoginseng.”

Seeing the way he gritted his teeth, Qiu Laifu believed that what he said might be true.Just let go. "Deal. Uncle, you won't lose money at this price. These Panax notoginseng are big-headed, old and highly effective," Qiu Laifu comforted him casually.

However, these two sentences of hers surprised the shopkeeper, "You are familiar with medicinal materials, did your adults teach them?"

Isn't it just knowing a medicinal material?There is no fuss, we were familiar with all the Chinese herbal medicines when we were in primary school in our previous life.

Qiu Laifu thought to himself, but said calmly on his face, "My ancestors knew how to collect herbs, so there is no problem in distinguishing the ingredients."

What Qiu Laifu said was that his previous life was in the modern time, which is not a lie.

When the shopkeeper heard that their family was all medicine farmers, he wanted to take over their family's medicinal materials in the future, "Then brother, you will continue to send here the medicinal materials you have in the future, and I will definitely give you the best price."

Qiu Laifu understood what he meant, but he was just passing by here, so it's hard to say in the future.So I said to the shopkeeper, "It's hard to decide, good medicinal materials are hard to come by."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he came to his senses, "That's the reason. I'm greedy. Let's settle today's bill first. We'll talk about it later."

At this time, the drug boy came over with a scale, so he weighed Sanqi. Before the scale, Qiu Laifu took out the stone at the bottom of the basket and stepped on it with one foot.

The shopkeeper and Xiaoer here have already weighed Shanqi, "It's 24 catties and eight taels including the skin." The drug boy reported the number loudly.The shopkeeper poured out Sanqi himself.

In fact, this is a way of acceptance from the shopkeeper.Qiu Laifu is clear in his heart, but he doesn't show it on the surface. The buyer's inspection is always necessary, so don't take it to heart.

"The bamboo basket weighs one catty and two taels." The drug boy reported the number again.Qiu Laifu did the calculations in his own mind, and there was 23 catties of six taels after peeling, and 1500 Wen per catty would be 35400 Wen. She had inquired that 1000 Wen could be exchanged for a tael of silver.Then you can get 35 taels of silver here.She figured it out in her heart, and the shopkeeper also figured it out with her abacus.

And put the silver in a bag and handed it to her.Qiu Laifu took the silver bag and poured out the silver. There were three big silver ingots and five small silver ingots, and they were gone.

Qiu Laifu felt uncomfortable, so he squinted his eyes slightly and asked the shopkeeper, "How much did the shopkeeper give me?" The shopkeeper thought she didn't know silver, so he said proudly, "Here is 35 taels of silver, and you deserve a total of 34 taels." 35 taels of silver. I think it’s not easy for you as a child, so I’ll count it as [-] taels for you.”

Qiu Laifu was even angrier. It was all because of her 400 essays and she said that she was unassuming. Instead, she said that she had taken advantage of it.

Although 400 texts is not too much.But she was cheated, and she would never admit to thanking others.Qiu Laifu took an abacus and pulled it a few times, and then pushed it in front of the shopkeeper without making a sound, which was to save some face for the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was shocked when he saw Qiu Laifu skillfully pulling the abacus.

Unexpectedly, this child not only knew herbs, but also proficient in arithmetic.His little trick was immediately exposed, and he felt ashamed and panicked.

Busy took the abacus and recalculated again.Then he accidentally miscalculated while wearing a western dress, and gave Qiu Laifu four strings of copper coins, each string of one hundred coins was exactly four hundred.

Qiu Laifu collected the money, then picked up the stones on the ground and put them into the back basket, and then put the weeds that had covered the back basket into the back basket, but he was seen in a flash.

When she was about to leave with the pannier on her back, someone grabbed the pannier suddenly.

Turning around, he saw an uncle Meixu was looking at her flatteringly, "Brother, I want to see your stone."

Qiu Laifu thought to himself, this is really sleepy and met a pillow, and he was wondering where to find a buyer?But I just don't know if this person will cheat.

You must know that the price of jade trading fluctuates greatly, and people who don't know how to do it are easy to be tricked.Qiu Laifu suppressed the excitement in his heart, pretended to be apologetic and said, "No, this rock is not for sale. My grandpa likes to play with rocks. I have to give this to him."

"Uh, didn't your grandpa never see this stone?" Qiu Zedong still didn't let go of his hand on the basket.

Qiu Laifu pulled the back basket, "Although grandpa has never seen it, but grandpa once told me that any good-looking stones must be kept for him." After Qiu Laifu finished speaking, he pulled the back basket again.

Qiu Zedong still didn't let go, he had already seen that the stone was green.

He guessed that this kid had never seen the world, so he could coax that baby over by coaxing him casually.

So he smiled and said, "I'll trade it with you. I have a better-looking stone than this one. Your grandpa will definitely like it."

Seeing that the uncle really liked the stone, Qiu Laifu said with confidence, "It's so hot today, I have to buy a bowl of tea." After she finished speaking, she took the little tiger away.

Qiu Zedong is also a smart person, so he naturally understood what Qiu Laifu meant.Then he let go of the basket and followed Qiu Laifu.

When she came to a teahouse, Qiu Laifu led Huzi to go in, when a little girl walked over with a dark face and stopped her.

"Go away, go away, little beggars and dogs are not allowed in." He snorted with his nostrils upturned.Qiu Laifu looked at the snobby boy coldly, and was about to say something sarcastic.Unexpectedly, someone was faster than her.

"What? Why didn't I know that people in Qiuyaju still treat guests like this." Xiaoer saw Qiu Zedong who was behind Qiu Laifu and the others.

His attitude immediately made a 180-degree turn, and he walked over nodding and bowing, bowing and apologizing, "Master Qiu, there is no such thing, there is no such thing, you are a guest, I must respect you. They are just beggars , can't let them disturb the elegant mood of the honored guests."

Qiu Laifu's face became even more ugly.Qiu Zedong at the side saw that Xiao Er was going to spoil his good deeds.He reprimanded, "What kind of eyes do you have? This little brother is my honored guest. What's your attitude?"

Xiao Er was stunned when he heard this, his mouth was wide open enough to put down an egg.

It was also rare for Qiu Laifu to pay attention to him, so he directly walked around him and entered the teahouse. The tiger behind her was not stage-frightened, and followed closely behind her.

Qiu Zedong glared at Xiao Er, and followed them eagerly. Qiu Laifu went upstairs, found a private room, and went in. He took a side seat and sat down beside her.After Qiu Zedong entered the private room, he sat down opposite Qiu Laifu.

At this time, Xiaoer also woke up, and now he is busy serving tea and water for them.

Qiu Zedong gave Xiaoer a look, and Xiaoer wisely left the private room and closed the door behind him.
