"Then please Brother Dongzi, please call a little master! I'll ask my father and the others to come in first."
"Nacheng, don't move. I'll call you first." Gu Chengyu watched Dongzi run to the counter, quickly turned around and waved to his father and the others outside the door to make sure they saw them, and walked towards Dongzi.
Looking around.
I saw Dongzi struggling through the queue and talking to a twelve or thirteen-year-old apprentice on the counter, but the apprentice kept waving his hands and pointing to indicate that he was busy, and looked confused.
Nai, what he said in his mouth probably meant that he was very busy and didn't have time. Gu Chengyu thought that if he was really busy, he didn't know how long he would have to wait, and he was afraid that no one would pay attention, not to mention meeting the shopkeeper, but he just wanted to meet a young apprentice.
It's not easy at all. If it really doesn't work out, you have to line up and pretend to be a medicine collector. Only when you see someone can you tell the truth, right?
Gu Chengyu was hesitating whether to queue up when he saw a middle-aged man coming out with the curtain lifted. This man was wearing a sky-blue satin cross-collar robe and walked up to the counter to take a look. The inner room should be a medical clinic.
In the inner hall, the doctor is sitting at the other door. There are many people coming in and out there, so this side may be the resting place for the chief. This man is well-dressed, he must be either the shopkeeper or the master as Dong Zi said.
Gu Chengyu looked at Dongzi who was squeezing back again and had an idea.
"Little brother, I'm so sorry. The hospital is really busy right now, and the young master is not available. Why don't you wait a little longer? I'll find another chance to ask you." Dongzi was also really sorry, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait.
I would be free and couldn't help.
"Brother Dongzi, please don't say that. It would be great if you could help me ask. I can wait. However, I saw someone in charge came to the counter just now. Could it be your Master Zhang?"
"My little brother has good eyesight. He is indeed Master Zhang. By the way, Master Zhang is not available, so I will ask Master Zhang for you. Just wait." After finishing speaking, Dongzi went to the counter again.
This guy is really enthusiastic! But when he saw this picture of the master, he looked arrogant, and his small eyes were mostly white, with a kind of black eyeballs hanging upwards, which made people feel that he was not very easy to get along with! Dongzi went to the counter and looked closer.
, did not go in again, and only shouted a few times: "Master!"
Master Zhang saw that it was a clerk in the shop who was shouting, and he didn't want to pay attention at first. However, Dongzi shouted several times, which disturbed others, so he had to pull Dongzi to the corner. It was too noisy in the medical clinic, and Gu Chengyu couldn't hear clearly.
What did they say? Dongzi gesticulated for a while, and then pointed in the direction of Gu Chengyu. Master Zhang followed Dongzi out of the corner of the counter and walked towards him. Okay! Gu Chengyu thought he wanted to take back his original words.
, as expected, people cannot be judged by their appearance, maybe they just seem difficult to get along with?
At this time, Father Gu and Gu Chengli also came in carrying sacks. They walked beside Gu Chengyu. Father Gu wanted to ask but was interrupted by a voice. "I heard from Dongzi that someone wants to sell honeysuckle, but you? Take it out and let me see."
Look." Master Zhang hadn't even arrived yet, and he didn't even let Gu Chengyu and the others say hello, so he went straight to the point.
"Is it Master Zhang? It's the boy's house that's for sale. Dad, please untie the sack and let him have a look!" It doesn't matter who sells the honeysuckle, as long as the price is fair.
Father Gu and Gu Chengli quickly put down the sacks they were carrying, opened the mouth of the sacks, took out a handful of honeysuckle, held it in their hands, and handed it to Master Zhang, "We picked this honeysuckle at home in the mountains and showed it to the doctor.
Yes, it’s said to be in good quality, can you take a look at it?”
Master Zhang took it, looked at it, and threw it back into the sack. He shook the sack and looked at it carefully. "Yes! The quality is not bad, but it is just better than the average. Our hospital has a regular pharmacist.
, such quality is not uncommon. Let’s see! It’s not easy for you to come all the way to the county town, right? I’ll accept it now. Counting you seventy cents per catty, this is already a high price. You just go
No matter where else you go, the prices at Huichun Hall won’t be as high as ours.”
"This? Master Zhang? When I came here," Father Gu became anxious when he heard that it was only seventy cents per catty. Apparently Mr. Li said he could sell it for ninety cents per catty? Why was it so much less all of a sudden?
Gu Chengyu secretly tugged at the hem of his father's clothes. It was normal for the hospital to charge down the price for the medicine. The price could still be negotiated, and there was no need for them to sell it to him. He looked up at Master Zhang and saw that he had a calm expression on his back.
He started to act confidently, as if he was sure of them, thinking that they were all farmers, as if they had never seen any money. It seemed that he was right, this was a guy who liked to look at people through the cracks in the door.
Gu Chengyu sneered in his heart and did not want to bargain with him. "Master Zhang, I wonder if shopkeeper Liu is in the hospital now?"
"Do you still know Shopkeeper Liu?" Master Zhang lowered his head and looked at Gu Chengyu who was speaking, with a somewhat surprised expression. Then, he thought of something else and his face darkened, "What? You don't believe me? Just this little Lonicera, I
A second shopkeeper can't make the decision? Are you looking down on me, Zhang?" Although the medical clinic has always been short of honeysuckle and the drug dealers can't supply it, the quality of the honeysuckle this time is very good, and he has also lowered the price a bit, but why?
You have to go to shopkeeper Liu for everything? Is it possible that he, the second shopkeeper, is just a decoration?
Gu Chengyu found it a bit funny. It was Master Zhang who looked down on them, so he turned the tables on them. "Master Zhang, we are also entrusted by others to send a few words to Shopkeeper Liu. I wonder if Master Zhang can be convenient and introduce us to them."
Ichiban.”
Master Zhang's face finally brightened after hearing this. He glanced at the little peasant boy who was speaking. He was about five or six years old. He was wearing grass-green fine cotton with a short placket. Like the adults in his family, the clothes were 50% new.
He probably doesn't wear it often on weekdays. But he speaks slowly and calmly, not like a farm boy who has never seen the world.
"Since you guys have a word with Shopkeeper Liu on behalf of someone, I guess that person is an old acquaintance of Shopkeeper Liu, so it's okay to introduce him to you. It's a pity that Shopkeeper Liu has something to go out today and is not in the hospital, so the introduction is
Let’s not talk about it for now, let’s talk about the honeysuckle, let’s do it! I’m giving you five cents per catty, do you think it’s okay? This is already our biggest concession.”
"This can't be done. It's not easy for us to come to the county town. The price is this." Dad Gu regretted it at this time. If he had known this, he might as well have sold it in the town. Shopkeeper Liu was not here, and he didn't sell the ginseng.
I bought dozens of articles, and I really lost a lot of money.
"Master Zhang, as far as I know, the Renhe Hall in Shanhe Town charges ninety-five cents. We think that the Huichun Hall in the county town is a big medical center, so the price charged is naturally higher. We are out there.
I have also heard the reputation of Hui Chun Tang, saying that the medicine prices at Hui Chun Tang are unbeatable, and the medical skills of the doctors are even better at rejuvenation. My family and I are convinced that even if we are selling medicine, we still want to take a long way to Hui Chun Tang. Moreover,
Huichuntang has branches all over the Dayan Dynasty, so they won't take advantage of me to lower the price." Gu Chengyu's voice became louder after he said it, and a few drug addicts nearby heard the sound and thought there was a dispute, so they went this way.
Look over.
Gu Chengyu was deeply suspicious of Master Zhang's statement that Shopkeeper Liu was not around. Who knew if he didn't want to introduce him? What's more, if the price was between eighty-five and ninety cents per pound, they could still accept it, and they would leave Mr. Li at seventy-five cents.
Is the price difference between the estimates too far? Dad and the others had to work hard to pick them and dry them in the sun. They also had to go through them frequently under the sun. He didn't want to get them for such a cheap price.
