Young Master, come to farm

Chapter 140

She looked at the cold stove in front of her, and asked puzzledly, "Master, why don't you burn charcoal in this cold weather and the twelfth lunar month? When did you search like this?"

This made Jin Yuanshan bow his head in embarrassment.

"Mingxuan! It's not that Master is not willing to burn it, but you don't know the current charcoal fire market! My pharmacy sells medicinal materials for a month, and it may not be able to earn two days' worth of charcoal fire money! No, even Yueji went to the next county. Her grandmother's home."

What he said made Qu Mingxuan speechless.

She still knows a little about the income of her master's pharmacy.

No matter how much money you have to put in every day, how can you not even afford to burn charcoal?
"I said, Master, are you kidding! If you can't even burn coals, everyone else will freeze to death!"

But Jin Yuanshan replied with a sigh.

"Didn't many people freeze to death! You haven't come these few days, maybe you don't know it, because the charcoal fire in Shanxi can't be transported, and the charcoal fire shop manager Yuan took the opportunity to increase the price of charcoal fire. Originally, a basket of charcoal fire was only a few dollars. , Now it’s a small handful, except for those big households in the town, who can start the fire? Mr. Wang, who lives next door to my shop, froze to death yesterday. Hey, what a crime!”

Qu Mingxuan understood it completely at this moment.

I can't help but despise the charcoal fire shop in charge of Yuan Tianbao.

But soon, a bold idea came to her mind.

Since everyone has no charcoal fire, why don't you sell the charcoal you have made?
Charcoal does not burn as long as charcoal, but one piece can burn for a long time.

At least those old, weak, sick and disabled who are not resistant to freezing will not be frozen to death.

"Master, I still have something to do, let's go home first!"

After finishing speaking, she turned her head and ran out of the pharmacy.

Jin Yuanshan just took out the prescription and was about to explain it to her.

Seeing her walking away, he could only helplessly shake his head.

"This little girl, I don't know what to do!"

Qu Mingxuan, who hurried back to the ruined temple, didn't say a word, and rushed to the town again with a basket of charcoal on her back.

I didn't even have time to say hello to the two little guys.

She went straight to the pharmacy first.

Under Jin Yuanshan's astonished gaze, she took two pieces of charcoal and put them on the stove to light them with a torch.

In an instant, warmth filled the entire room.

"Oh, Mingxuan, what is this? Why does it burn like coal?"

Taking off the quilt on his body, Jin Yuanshan leaned forward, rubbed his frozen hands, and asked.

But Qu Mingxuan didn't have time to explain to him carefully, so she just took a few more pieces and put them on the ground beside her.

"Master, this is called charcoal. It is made from a secret recipe handed down in my family. These few pieces should be enough for you tonight. I will bring you some more tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, she carried the remaining charcoal on her back and went out, heading straight for the charcoal fire shop.

As soon as I arrived, I saw many people surrounded there.

They are begging Master Yuan to sell some charcoal to themselves at a low price.

But the maintenance work outside is full of arrogance.

"Our shopkeeper said, if you don't have money, go home and freeze! We are a business shop here, not Jishitang!"

Another trembling old lady was pushed to the ground.

Qu Mingxuan was trembling with anger, and hurried forward to help her.

"Grandma, are you okay?"

The old lady clapped her hands gratefully and shook her head bitterly.

"I'm fine, but I don't know if I can get through tonight, hey"
