The smile on Little General Meng's face suddenly fell. Even Bai Shan couldn't help but comfort him, "It's only seven or eight days, it'll be over in a flash."
"How could it go by in one go? It took such a long time."
"Is it very long?" Man Bao and Bai Shan were both a little confused and said, "It has only been five days since we entered Xizhou City, but it always feels like it only took a blink of an eye."
The two sighed, "Every day is so busy."
General Meng, who was so idle that his balls almost hurt from recuperating, was speechless.
He simply asked the two of them, "What are you going to do tomorrow?"
When he came to buy medicine yesterday, he heard from them that their medicine was almost finished and they would not make it into medicine again.
Recently, the prices of medicines sold to them by pharmacies have increased. Even if General Meng sent someone to buy them, the pharmacies didn't want to sell them because they were unfamiliar faces and the quantity was large.
In Xizhou, there are many medicines that are not available in pharmacies, and there are few doctors and pharmacies. It is basically not difficult to sell medicines. Anyway, there is no problem that they cannot be sold.
Although it is sold to everyone, people like Zhou Man and others who buy a lot of medicine without seeing a doctor will suffer a lot from buying medicine from a pharmacy, because the medicine will be left behind, and other patients will have to see a doctor before they can prescribe medicine.
Earn a medical fee.
If the medicines in the pharmacy are sold to people like Zhou Man and others, the next time a patient comes to see a doctor, they won’t be able to prescribe the medicine. What’s the big deal?
Manbao also knew this, so she stopped selling it after the drug store increased its prices.
The necessary medicine has been prepared, and the next step is to wait to go out, but Nie Canjun seems to have not found the person or the place yet.
Man Bao and Bai Shan thought for a while and said, "Let's go out and sell things too."
They brought a lot of goods, some bought from Governor Duan and some from Nie Canjun and others.
Otherwise, why would Nie Canjun and his men have gold and silver in their hands?
It was what Bai Shan and the others gave them in exchange.
Therefore, the satin cloth, porcelain, and some ornaments that would be very popular in the Western Regions in the luggage are their goods.
Several people decided to sell and then split the money. Among them, Bai Erlang was the most eager because he had the least cash now and basically ate and drank Bai Shan and Zhou Man's money.
You know, he used to be the richest among them. Bai Shan and Zhou Man were stingy. Except when they went out to share, they would always eat and drink from him!
So Bai Erlangyou drank the hardest. He took a piece of red silk satin and tried his best to praise it, "The color is particularly rich, but not ostentatious. Madams use it to make clothes.
Luxurious yet understated, it’s the best.”
In fact, it is a bright red color that has become a bit dull due to improper maintenance by those horse thieves.
Bai Shan and Man Bao squeezed into the crowd, looked at the color, and thought about Bai Erlang's recommendation. Not to mention, it was quite appropriate.
It's a pity that no one bought it.
It seems that many people come here just to watch the fun. There are many people watching but few people buying.
Even though I bought it, I also bought the cheaper ones, mainly because I wanted to talk to the five beauties standing behind the stall.
As for the beauties from the Duhu Mansion, who lived in their palace before, wouldn't talking to them be equivalent to talking to people in the palace?
When Bai Erlang saw the two of them, he immediately waved: "Come on, come on, we have sold a lot, and you still have a lot of goods."
Bai Shan saw the things mixed together and asked, "How do you divide this between you and me?" Wasn't the share determined based on the capital contribution at that time?
Bai Erlang choked for a while and then said: "Everyone has to sell things anyway. I have already sold three pieces of cloth. You must sell at least this much."
Bai Shan glanced at him and said, "Didn't Manager Li go find the merchant? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Bai Erlang was startled and asked: "Aren't you in a hurry? Aren't we going to leave the city to find something in a hurry?"
Bai Shan said calmly: "Don't worry, we haven't found the place or the person yet, and this can't be done in one go. We will definitely have to go back and forth to Xizhou several times. You haven't seen that when we rent the yard, we rent it directly."
Has it been sold for a month? If you can’t sell it this time, just sell it next time.”
But if it can be sold now, it is naturally better to sell it now so that they can use the money to do other things.
So Bai Shan also picked up the cloth and shouted, but unlike Bai Erlang's excitement, he seemed lazy, and told the onlookers that they also accepted barter, such as gems and spices of the same price.
No one onlookers came to barter, but word spread about it. After they closed the stall and returned to the yard, someone came to their door with things and wanted to exchange things with them.
Bai Shan handed the matter over to Manager Li, who said: "Select carefully, as long as it is good gems and spices."
Manager Li was a little worried, "Master, we already have a lot of gems. If we change them again, I'm afraid we won't be able to get rid of them for a while when we get back."
Although gems are valuable and spices are consumables, too much at once will inevitably drive down the price.
Bai Shan didn't care, he said: "Let's not talk about gems. Spices can also be stored for several years. We are not just in the capital. We also have Brother Zhou and the others. They took them with them when they returned to Mianzhou.
Things have to pass through many towns, so you can get rid of them."
"And the road to our house, if you follow the team transporting food, you can sell a lot." Since Bai Shan dared to change, he naturally thought about the sales, and he glanced at the people sitting beside him.
Bai Erlang, Yin You and Liu Huan, who were drinking tea, laughed and said: "There are still them."
Everyone has their own money, not to mention Yin or the six sisters above, Liu Huan has a lot of relatives and friends, even Bai Er, he also has a lot of friends who borrow money, the price is slightly lower, and there are more
People buy.
As soon as Manager Li heard this, he felt relieved and did it. After a while, he came back with two gems to show them.
Bai Shan looked at the sun and said, "The quality is average."
He put it in his purse and gave it to Manager Li, asking him to keep track of the accounts, and said to Bai Erlang, "Tomorrow we will go out to set up a stall."
Bai Erlang became excited, "Actually, setting up a stall here in the Western Region is quite fun."
Liu Huandao: "When you drink tomorrow, remember to help me save my reputation."
Man Bao suggested to him, "You might as well write a letter directly back to your grandfather to explain the situation. We can't do anything with General Guo, but Liu Shangshu can certainly do it."
"Can we still communicate in the Western Region now?"
Man Bao choked. It seemed that he really couldn't do it. The trade routes were cut off. Except for the messengers in the army, the communication system of other channels collapsed.
She could only comfort him, "It's okay. Since the trade route is cut off, things here can't reach the capital for the time being. You can write to your grandfather when the trade route opens."
