Xu Luo acts in a reasonable and orderly manner, or is he from an exorcism department, and he only causes trouble for others when his brain is damaged?
"It's easy to talk, it's easy to talk. Brother Xu wants to know something. In this Tonghui Street, you can definitely find me, Mad Man!"
Ma Feng patted his chest and spoke firmly.
Xu Luo laughed aloud and went straight to a restaurant on the roadside. Without saying a word, he first picked the most expensive food and wine and put it on the table. He greeted Ma Feng and Yang Liang and ate and drank vigorously.
After drinking for three rounds, Xu Luo asked.
"Brother Ma, my younger brother is lucky enough to have established a connection with a mountain barbarian tribe. I can get some rare mountain medicinal materials every month. Now I want to find a reputable and reliable store to supply long-term supplies and earn some silver baht.
Brother Ma is very familiar with people in this area, please recommend some of them! Don’t worry, after everything is done, the money for tea and wine will be generous."
Ma Feng drank a large bowl of wine, smacked his lips and then smiled.
"Since Brother Xu has approached his brother, he must be looking for long-term peace of mind. Otherwise, if he can open a shop in Tonghui Street, any family can take over this business.
Since you think highly of my crazy horse, my brother will tell you something."
After saying that, he took a few more pieces of braised pork and stuffed them into his mouth before speaking.
“The ones with the best reputation are Jubaolou and Shanzhenfang.
Jubaolou is the property of the Mo family, a tycoon in medicinal materials, and it is also the largest one now.
Shanzhenfang, which has been operating on Tonghui Street for nearly a hundred years, has the best reputation. It has always been known for its fair dealings and fair dealings. It is also very famous among the mountain barbarians and is the number one shop for almost all the people in the county.
One choice.”
Although Ma Feng's words were cryptic, Xu Luo still heard that he actually recommended Shanzhenfang.
Xu Luo raised his wine glass and paid a false tribute.
"In this case, let's go to the Shanzhenfang tomorrow and have a look. Today we brothers will eat and drink as much as we can and just make friends!"
…
Shanzhenfang is indeed a century-old brand.
It's still morning meal time, and there are already people coming and going at the gate, and there are constant noises.
The interior is decorated in an antique style, and there is a faint fragrance of herbs, which is refreshing.
There are paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall. Looking at the signatures, they are all left by generations of Shanzhenfang shopkeepers.
In the glass cover above the counter, there is an old wild ginseng with complete whiskers and tail, as thick as a child's arm. If you look carefully, the thick roots of the wild ginseng can vaguely form the face of an old man.
"Huangshou Ginseng?"
As soon as Xu Luo entered the store, Shanzhenfang gave him a big surprise.
He thought he had seen it wrong, so he looked carefully for a moment and confirmed that it was really the legendary spiritual creature Human Life Ginseng.
This thing is extremely effective even for exorcists who are in the realm of Tongmai.
It can help sort out the meridians and increase the speed of spiritual energy absorption. It is called a miracle medicine. Whenever it appears, even practitioners in the body-washing realm are eager to ask for it.
It's a pity that all that is left of this plant is a skin bag, and all the spiritual energy essence has been extracted.
As soon as his spiritual sense came into contact, Xu Luo noticed something fishy and couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment.
This scene was seen by the waiter who was about to greet him. The waiter's face changed slightly, and then he immediately turned into the back hall.
After a while, an old man with white beard and hair walked up to Xu Luo with a smile on his face.
"This old man is Tang Xinren. I am temporarily in charge of this Shanzhenfang for all my bosses. I also invite our distinguished guests to go to the quiet room in the backyard to talk about it!"
There are many people who can recognize the ginseng on the counter, but those who can see that the ginseng has no spirituality can only be sensed by those who practice spiritual practice.
If such a person is treated by a little waiter, then Shanzhenfang's cards will be too big!
Xu Luo smiled and nodded to him, and then the two of them came to a quiet room.
Shopkeeper Tang personally brewed a pot of Shanshan Yunjian, and then asked with a somewhat flattering expression.
"I wonder what you are doing when you come to Shanzhenfang?
But there are medicines and spiritual materials that Shanzhenfang needs to search for and purchase? All you need to do is make a list, and we can ensure that we complete it as quickly as possible!"
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip before putting it down. Xu Luocai smiled slowly.
"I heard that Shanzhenfang is the longest-running store on Tonghui Street. I came here today specifically to ask for some advice. Is it convenient for Shopkeeper Tang?"
Talking about this, Tang Xinren subconsciously smiled from the bottom of his heart. This is what everyone at Shanzhenfang is most proud of.
Don't look at the size of one Jubao Building today, which is equivalent to ten Shanzhenfang, but a few decades ago, Shanzhenfang was the leader of the entire Moshui County medicinal materials store!
consult?
Tang Xinren sat up slightly and after pondering for a moment, his answer was obviously cautious.
"Please feel free to ask, sir. I will tell you everything I know!"
Xu Luo didn't hide anything from him and briefly talked about the Shansang incident. He only said that he was entrusted by a friend to search for the whereabouts of two Shansang more than thirty years ago.
Tang Xinren heard that it was an old thing decades ago. He frowned and thought for a long time, and then said uncertainly.
"More than thirty years ago, I was just a note-taker in the front hall. I may not understand some things very clearly. Please wait a moment, sir. I need to look through those records from back then."
"It's better to go together. Those two people are husband and wife, and they have just converted from barbarism. I think their daily life and behavior must be very different from mine.
As long as the shopkeeper has interacted with me, he should have an impression!"
Xu Luo stood up on crutches and followed Tang Xinren while comforting him warmly.
Tang Xinren had a wry smile on his face.
"Logically speaking, this should be the case, but I'm afraid that these two people have never appeared in Tonghui Street, and the time is too long, so I'm afraid that I'll miss your business!"
While they were talking, the two of them came to a particularly dark side room. It seemed that few people came there on weekdays.
Tang Xinren opened the door and pushed the window. After working for a while, he was finally able to get someone inside.
By the bright candlelight, Tang Xinren searched the rows of wooden shelves, and from time to time he pulled out a few books and placed them on the wooden table.
After a while, there was a pile of books and account books piled high on the wooden table in the middle.
Xu Luo opened a few books at random. They were all purchase and business records from more than thirty years ago.
Finally, Tang Xinren came over sweating profusely.
"It should all be here. If there are no records here, there is nothing we can do!"
Xu Luo didn't say anything and just read through them one by one.
Tang Xinren smiled bitterly and checked it carefully. He didn't want to offend Xu Luo's status as a bronze arrester, not to mention that he was still a practitioner.
The two of them first took the records about the mountain barbarians to the side, and then Xu Luo judged whether he was the person they were looking for.
"Huh?"
After flipping through most of the records, Xu Luo suddenly stopped thoughtfully when he turned to a transaction ledger again.
After thinking for a moment, he pushed the account in front of Tang Xinren.
"How long have these so-called Black Valley transactions lasted? Does Shopkeeper Tang still have any memories?"
