At the same time,

Front yard.

Liu Zhihua was very happy today and knew that the boss must be tired after running around for a day, so she boiled a basin of hot water for him to soak his feet.

As soon as she brought it into the house, Wang Zhuangzhi hurriedly stepped forward to take it, and said with a naive smile: "Thank you, madam."

Seeing him like this, Liu Zhihua said with a smile: "Okay, it's getting late, so hurry up and sit by the bed and soak your feet."

Wang Zhuangzhi was not in a hurry, he put the basin aside, took out the banknotes and house deeds from his arms, and said: "Mother, I forgot to give it to you just now. Keep the deed to the drug store and these banknotes.

”

Liu Zhihua was a little surprised when she saw that the owner was holding a thick stack in his hand. When he raised his hand to take it, he muttered: "Aren't house deeds all just a thin piece of paper? Why is this so thick?"

Wang Zhuangzhi walked to the bedside with the wooden basin, took off his shoes and said: "The rest are banknotes. There is one thing I haven't said in front of the baby. Our fish will only be supplied to Shunhe Restaurant in the future. The shopkeeper will give more."

They paid five thousand taels of silver to buy it out, and I have already signed and pledged it with them."

The reason why Wang Zhuangzhi did not tell his children in front of them was because the amount of money was too large. The children were still young after all, and if he accidentally said it out someday, he would be afraid of attracting thieves and trouble.

Liu Zhihua was frightened when she heard this, and quickly opened the pile in her hand. There was a yellowed land deed on the top, and underneath was a thick pile of silver notes. Her fingertips turned over with some trembling, and they were all one hundred taels.

Banknote.

"Master, am I dreaming?" Liu Zhihua's voice was trembling.

In her half-life, she has never seen so much money.

Wang Zhuangzhi smiled and said in a low voice: "When the shopkeeper told me so much money, I thought I was dreaming and thought he was trapping me. But after the signature was postponed, he gave me five thousand taels without saying a word.

My hands were shaking when I received it, and it was incredible to think about it on the way."

After saying that, Wang Zhuangzhi put his feet in the basin, let out a comfortable sigh, and said with emotion: "If this continues, our family will be turned around."

"Oh, no, rich people may not be able to afford so much money."

Liu Zhihua's face was filled with joy and excitement. Holding so much money in her hands, her heart was beating fast. She looked around the room and felt that it was not safe to put it anywhere.

"No, it's not safe to leave so many banknotes at home. If there is a thief, you won't even have a place to cry. As the boss, you should find a time to deposit it in a bank." Liu Zhihua suggested.

Wang Zhuangzhi felt that was the case, so he nodded and said: "Then let's leave a thousand taels at home. The medicine shop will need it in the past two days to purchase goods and hire people. The rest I will go to Ancheng tomorrow to deliver fish for storage."

Only then did Liu Zhihua feel relieved. Then she thought of the fish in the pond and said, "My boss, the backyard is only supported by a simple fishing net made by Erya and Xiaoli. It's okay to catch a dozen of them. If there are too many, they may not be strong. Our family can't."

There are no tools for holding fish. Since I will be cooperating with others in the future, I have to go to town early to buy these tools."

"I'll go there early tomorrow morning and buy some cold-resistant herbal seeds. I'll scatter them in the open space behind the mountain when I come back. Maybe they'll grow."

In fact, Wang Zhuangzhi was thinking about buying tools on the way, but he forgot about going to the drug store. When he came back, it was already dark, and he originally planned to go to the town to buy fishing nets and barrels.

The time for selling fish and medicine shop happened to coincide with each other, so the next two days were relatively tight. Wang Zhuangzhi thought about it and discussed it with his wife again.

"Damn it, Song Dong checked out the shortage of herbs at the drug store today, and Jiaojiao has already written them down. Tomorrow I will be busy delivering fish and will not be able to dig them. You take Erya, Xiaoli, and Jiaojiao to dig at the foot of the mountain first, and wait.

When I finish my work, I will dig up the mountain with you."

Liu Zhihua nodded after hearing this. Now that he has a medicine shop, he can make money by selling the herbal medicines he bought in the back mountain. Naturally, Liu Zhihua will not relax in making money. He smiled and replied: "Master, you are busy delivering fish and digging herbs."

I'll take care of it."

The next day, as agreed between the two yesterday, Wang Zhuangzhi drove a carriage to the town to buy things before dawn.

Liu Zhihua got up before dawn to prepare breakfast for the children. Perhaps it was because she stayed in bed yesterday morning and did not go out with her father. Erya and Xiaoli got up early today, and Jiaojiao got up and walked out when she heard the noise.

Liu Zhihua prepared the meal, wiped her hands and was about to wake up the children. When she left the kitchen, she saw three children standing in the yard.

She smiled and said "Ouch" and walked over and said, "Mom was just about to call you. Today, your father has asked you to do some work. We have to dig for medicinal materials after breakfast."

Jiaojiao nodded after hearing this. Her father had already told her on the way back last night that the shop was short of many medicinal materials and she would go up the mountain to collect many medicines today.

Erya didn't know that her father had left yet, so she touched her braid unhappily and muttered: "Mom, today my father is going to deliver fish, and I want to go with him."

The fish in the pond she had worked so hard to build could be sold for money, and she wanted to go and have a look.

Liu Zhihua raised his hand and touched her head, and coaxed with a smile: "Let your father deliver the fish first, and you can follow next time. We have a shortage of medicinal materials in the shop under our family's plate. We must seize the time to fill it up. We will officially make it the day after tomorrow."

You can’t do business without medicinal materials.”

Erya felt a little disappointed, but still nodded sensibly and said: "Okay."

It was getting brighter, and after breakfast, the family took their tools and sacks and baskets and went straight to the back mountain.

The drug stores mostly stock common medicinal materials, and there are not many types of precious medicinal materials. Although there are many types of medicinal materials in short supply, they are relatively easy to find.

Jiaojiao first took her mother and the others to pick common herbs at the foot of the back mountain. Dandelions, cyperus, plantain, and green leaves can be seen everywhere in the grass.

After a while, the sacks were filled to the brim.

It was no longer as difficult as before to find herbs, and Erya called out: "Jiaojiao, the herbs today are so easy to find, any one of them is a herb."

Liu Zhihua also looked curious. When farming, there were often plantains in the fields, and even dandelions were played with by the children. She never thought that they were also medicinal materials.

Jiaojiao happened to have learned a lot from Song Dong yesterday, so she explained to everyone in Nuosheng: "There are thousands of types of medicinal herbs, only a small part of them are more expensive, and the rest are common medicinal materials, like this plantain

, Brother Song Dong said that the drug store only sells half a kilogram for three cents. Most of the herbal medicines in a pair are ordinary medicinal materials. Some expensive medicines are added according to the severity of the disease. The price is high because those more expensive medicinal materials are added.

”

When Liu Zhihua heard what Guabao said, she suddenly realized: "No wonder the medicinal materials sold by Dr. Li are very cheap. Everyone in the village suspected him of fraud. When my mother first came to Xiaoshu Village, she also felt that a medicine worth more than 20 yuan was unreliable. Later she learned about Dr. Li's
