I Have a Martial Arts Panel

Chapter 2: Selling herbs

   Xu Lian heard the conversation between Xu Ning and Tao Yunchuan just now while cooking in the kitchen, and knew that Xu Ning was injured.

   "Sister, it's okay, it's just skin trauma."

   Faced with Xu Lian's concern, Xu Ning responded.

   Looking at this blood-related sister, Xu Ning tried to keep calm.

   Xu Lian was not relieved, stepped forward and took a closer look.

   "It's okay." Xu Lian watched for a long time, and when she saw that there was nothing serious, she relieved her heart, but she still felt a little distressed in her eyes, "Go and change your clothes. The meal is ready."

   "I see, I will go now."

   Xu Ning glanced at Xu Lian and Tao Yunchuan again, then turned around and went to her room.

   These simple conversations just now made Xu Ning feel a little pressure.

   Looking at Xu Ning's back, Tao Yunchuan suddenly sighed.

   He looked at his wife Xu Lian, with a lonely expression: "Blame me for being incapable. You are suffering with me. Xu Ning has reached the age of getting married, so you have to let you support this family with me..."

"do not talk like that."

   Xu Lian looked at her husband: "If you didn't marry me back then, Xu Ning and I might have died on the wandering road. Don't say these frustrating words, the future will be better."

   Xu Lian held Tao Yunchuan's hand.

"Um…"

   Facing his wife's encouragement, Tao Yunchuan nodded silently.

  ...

   Xu Ning returned to his room.

   wanted to adjust her emotions, but as soon as she opened the door, Xu Ning saw a girl with croissant braids sitting on her bed, holding two wooden toys in her hands, playing and muttering to herself.

   Hearing the sound of pushing the door, the girl turned her face.

   At this time, the setting sun was going down, and the room was dim, but the girl’s big eyes looked very bright.

   Seeing Xu Ning, the girl put a smile on her face.

   "Uncle!"

   Uncle?

   Xu Ning heard it and remembered it instantly.

   The girl in front of her is the daughter of her sister Xu Lian and her brother-in-law Tao Yunchuan, and her niece, Tao Tao.

   Tao Tao saw Xu Ning coming in, put down the toy in her hand, and jumped out of the bed.

   "Uncle, why did you come back?"

   Tao Tao looked up at Xu Ning.

"I…"

   Faced with Tao Tao, Xu Ning hadn't figured out how to deal with it for a while.

"what?"

   Tao Tao suddenly made a question. She looked at the holes and blood stains in Xu Ning's pants, her brows tightened.

   "Uncle, why did your leg break?"

   Tao Tao said as she put her mouth in Xu Ning's wound.

   She puffed her cheeks, blowing hard into Xu Ning's wound.

   "Peach, what are you doing?"

   Xu Ning asked subconsciously.

   "Does it still hurt?"

   Tao Tao looked up at Xu Ning again.

   Xu Ning then remembered that if Tao Tao broke her skin after a fall, her sister Xu Lian would blow her wounds in this way, and the cool breeze from her mouth would relieve the pain of the injury.

   Thinking of this, Xu Ning suddenly smiled.

   He touched Tao Tao's head: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

   "It doesn't hurt anymore?"

   Tao Tao seems a little unbelievable.

   "It doesn't hurt anymore."

   Xu Ning pulled Tao Tao's pigtail: "You go to dinner first, and I will go there after I change my clothes."

   Tao Tao put Xu Ning's hand away: "Then I will go out first."

   But as soon as he left, Tao Tao turned back and took out a few green dates from two pockets of his clothes.

   Tao Tao's hands are small, and he can't hold only three or four in one hand.

   "Uncle, for you."

   Tao Tao stuffed the green dates into Xu Ning's hands.

   Xu Ning took it: "You waited for me in the house just to give me this date?"

"Yes."

   Tao Tao nodded.

   She didn't stop, but she went out with her pigtails.

   Xu Ning looked at the short figure, then looked down at the green date in his hand.

   "This kid..."

   Xu Ning's mouth had a smile that he hadn't even noticed.

   He put a green date into his mouth and chewed it.

   "hiss..."

   Xu Ning took a slight breath.

   really sour.

   "Perhaps everything is destiny..."

   Looking at the remaining green dates in his hand, Xu Ning was meditative.

   For a long time, he raised his head, and the sky was already dim.

   Unconsciously, the estrangement from this world seems to be dissolving a little bit.

  ...

   Xu Ning changed his clothes, then roughly wiped the wound with the spare ointment in the room, and then went back to the main house for dinner.

   The dining table is a square table with a plate of light greens, a plate of pickles, four bowls of porridge, and a piece of noodles.

   "The standard of living at home is still a bit worse..."

   Xu Ning thought to himself.

   Although Taojiazhuang is a powerful ethnic group in Kangyun County, his brother-in-law Tao Yunchuan has limited mobility, and he and his sister have no outstanding skills, so life has always been very tight.

  The income of the whole family is about ten taels a month.

   Xu Ning relied on memory to convert, one or two silver in this world, the purchasing power is equivalent to 200 yuan in the previous life.

   Thinking of this, Xu Ning suddenly thought of the green jade grass before.

   That is worth five hundred taels of silver.

   It is precisely because of the high value that the predecessor risked his life to pick it.

   Such precious green jade grass was absorbed as energy by himself, and Xu Ning's heart flashed with guilt.

   "Sit down."

   After Xu Ning took a seat, Xu Lian tore the noodles apart.

   Among them, I and my brother-in-law Tao Yunchuan are divided into big pieces, while Xu Lian and Tao Tao are small pieces.

   At the dinner table, the family did not communicate much.

   Soon, after dinner was over, Xu Ning went back to his room on the excuse of being tired.

   At this time, the night is rising, and the room is dim.

   Xu Ning was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling.

   After a meal, he has a more intuitive understanding of the family's family situation.

   Barely full.

   This is the current state of the family.

  The more this happened, the more Xu Ning felt guilty about absorbing the sapphire grass worth five hundred taels of silver.

   "I have to find a way to make money..."

   Xu Ning's brain is trying to think.

   He has to convert the force he has consumed in exchange for high value into a substantial help to the family.

  ...

   early the next morning.

   Xu Ning got up a bit late.

   When he woke up, Tao Yunchuan and Xu Lian had already left.

   Tao Yunchuan lays hands at the rice shop in the village, while Xu Lian goes to repair clothes for the tailor.

   Tao Tao is still asleep.

   Xu Ning didn't wake her up. After Tao Tao woke up naturally when she slept, she went to play with her friends and came back for dinner at noon.

   Because it is in Zhuangzi, there is no need to worry too much about Tao Tao's safety.

   After getting up, Xu Ning simply rinsed, stuffed the leftover cake from last night, and slightly filled his stomach.

   He sorted the medicinal materials picked from the mountain yesterday and the medicinal materials picked before, put them in a basket, and then went out, ready to sell.

   Picking and selling herbs is what Xu Ning has been doing all the time.

   After leaving the house, Xu Ning walked towards the medicinal shop in the village.

   "Guo Ye."

   Walking into the medicinal material shop, Xu Ning saw a strong guy.

   He has dark skin, small eyes, and a beard at the corners of his mouth. He looks a bit mature.

   "Come on, Xu Ning!"

   The young man named Guo Ye smiled warmly when he saw Xu Ning.

   If you want to say that in Taojiazhuang, which young man has the closest relationship with him, it must be Guo Ye.

   Guo Ye has a similar experience to Xu Ning. After losing his parents, he followed his aunt and married to Taojiazhuang when he was young. He is also a foreigner.

   But Guo Ye's situation is much better than Xu Ning's.

   His aunt married Tao Yungang, a well-known medicinal material merchant in Taojiazhuang. His business scope is in addition to nearby Zhuangzi and villages. uukanshu.com also covers Kangyun County, where the family is very wealthy.

   Tao Yungang usually collects medicinal materials to discuss business, and Guo Ye manages the medicinal materials shop for him in the village.

Before   , Xu Ning always sold the herbs he picked here, and Guo Ye never kept the price down.

   "This is the medicinal material picked in the last few days."

   Xu Ning put the back basket in front of the counter and took out the herbs inside.

   He has gathered the herbs and sorted them into bundles.

   "I will weigh it."

   Guo Ye's movements are very skilled.

   "A total of three taels of silver."

   Guo Ye calculated the price.

   "Three and two?"

   Xu Ning was a little surprised.

   In my memory, these medicinal materials are worth one and a half at most.

   "So much, don't you take special care of me, right?"

   Xu Ning asked.

   "No." Guo Ye replied, "The recycling price of cold dead grass has increased. It used to be a catty of three taels, but now it is a catty of six taels."

   Talking, Guo Ye took a bundle of cold withered grass in his hand.

   The surface is yellow, and the grass blades are slender, looking like withered weeds.

   But when I put it down my nose, there is a faint smoky fragrance.

   "There are six liang withered grass?"

   Xu Ning moved her heart when she heard this price.

   He suddenly thought of a memory of his predecessor.

   A month ago, his predecessor accidentally turned to a place in Yunze Dashan Mountain. On the hillside further away, he found a large area of ​​cool withered grass growing there.

   It's just that the place is too dangerous, too close to the inner circle of Yunze Mountain. In the inner circle, there are many wild beasts, and poisonous insects and weeds. There is no small risk, so the predecessor did not dare to pick it after hesitating.

   And now, my own strength is growing, and the price of Lung Withered Grass is increasing, maybe I can give it a try.
