I Have A Martial Arts Panel Chapter 2: Selling herbs


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

"Sister, it's fine, just some skin injuries."

Facing Xu Lian's concern, Xu Ning responded.

Seeing this blood-related sister, Xu Ning tried her best to keep calm.

Xu Lian was worried, she stepped forward and took a closer look.

"It's fine." Xu Lian stared at it for a long time. Seeing that there was no major event, she was relieved, but her eyes were still a little distressed, "Go and change your clothes, and the meal will be ready."

"Got it, let's go."

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

The simple conversation just now made Xu Ning feel a little stressed.

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

He looked at his wife Xu Lian with a somewhat desolate expression: "It's my fault, you've endured hardship with me, Xu Ning has reached the age of marriage, and in turn, let you guys support this family with me..." /

"Don't say that."

Xu Lian looked at her husband: "If you hadn't married me back then, Xu Ning and I might have died on the road of wandering. Don't say these depressing 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.

I wanted to adjust my mood, but as soon as I opened the door, Xu Ning saw a girl with braids sitting on her bed, holding two wooden toys in her hands, playing and talking to herself muttered.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed, the girl turned her face.

At this time, the sun was about to set, and the house was dark, but the girl's big eyes were bright.

Seeing Xu Ning, the girl had 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.

When Tao Tao saw Xu Ning coming in, she put down her toy and jumped off the bed.

"Uncle, why did you come back?"

Tao Tao raised her head and stared at Xu Ning.

"I..."

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

"Huh?"

Tao Tao suddenly asked a question. She looked at the holes and blood on Xu Ning's trousers, and her small brows tensed.

"Uncle, why is your leg broken?"

As Tao Tao spoke, she put her mouth to Xu Ning's wound.

She puffed out her cheeks and blew **** 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 just remembered that after Tao Tao fell, if her skin broke, her sister Xu Lian would blow her wounds like this, using the cool wind from her mouth to ease the pain of the injury.

Thinking of this, Xu Ning suddenly smiled knowingly.

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

"It doesn't hurt anymore?"

Tao Tao seems a little disbelieving.

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

Xu Ning tugged at Tao Tao's braid: "You go to dinner first, I'll go after changing clothes."

Tao Tao pushed Xu Ning's hand away: "Then I'll go out first."

But just after leaving, Tao Tao turned around again and took out a few green dates from two pockets.

Tao Tao's hands are so small that she can't hold only three or four in one hand.

"Uncle, for you."

Tao Tao shoved the green jujube into Xu Ning's hand.

Xu Ning took it: "You waited for me in the room just to give me the dates?"

"Yes."

Tao Tao nodded.

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

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

"This child..."

Xu Ning's mouth had a smile that he didn't even notice.

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

"His..."

Xu Ning took a breath of cold air.

Really sour.

"Perhaps everything is fate..."

Looking at the green dates left in her hand, Xu Ning pondered.

After a long time, he raised his head, the sky was already dark.

Unconsciously, the estrangement with this world seems to be melting little by little.

Xu Ning changed his clothes and roughly wiped the wound with the spare ointment in the room before returning to the main house for dinner.

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

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

Xu Ning thought to himself.

Although Tao Jiazhuang is a powerful ethnic group in Kangyun County, his brother-in-law Tao Yunchuan is inconvenient to move, and he and his sister have no outstanding skills, so life has been very difficult.

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

Xu Ning converted from memory, a tael of silver in this world, the purchasing power is equivalent to 200 yuan in a previous life.

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

That's worth five hundred taels of silver.

It is precisely because of its high value that the predecessors risked their lives to pick.

But such a precious green jade grass was absorbed by himself as energy, and Xu Ning flashed a trace of guilt.

"Sit down."

After Xu Ning was seated, Xu Lian tore the dough apart.

Among them, she and her brother-in-law Tao Yunchuan were given a large portion, while Xu Lian and Tao Tao were both small.

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

Soon, after dinner was over, Xu Ning excused his exhaustion and went back to his room.

At this time, the night rises, and the house is dark.

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

After a meal, he had a more intuitive understanding of the family's circumstances.

Barely fed.

This is the current family status.

The more this is the case, the more guilty Xu Ning feels about absorbing the jade grass worth five hundred taels of silver.

"Have to find a way to make money..."

Xu Ning's brain was trying to think.

He had to turn the force he had gained from consuming a high value into substantial help to the family.

Early the next morning.

Xu Ning woke up a little late.

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

Tao Yunchuan started at the rice shop in the village, while Xu Lian went to mend clothes for the tailor.

Tao Tao is still sound asleep.

Xu Ning didn't wake her up. When Tao Tao woke up naturally, 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 took a shower, stuffed the leftover cake from last night, and filled his stomach a little.

He sorted the herbs he picked from the mountain yesterday and the herbs he had picked before, put them in a basket, and went out to sell them.

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

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

"Guo Ye."

Walking into the herbal medicine store, Xu Ning saw a burly young man.

He has dark skin, small eyes, and a beard at the corners of his mouth, making him look old.

"Come on, Xu Ning!"

When a young man named Guo Ye saw Xu Ning, he smiled warmly.

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

Guo Ye and Xu Ning have a similar experience. He lost his parents and married his aunt to Taojiazhuang when he was young. He is also a foreigner.

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

His aunt is married to Tao Yungang, a famous medicinal herb merchant in Taojiazhuang. His business scope not only covers the nearby Zhuangzi and villages ~IndoMTL.com~ but also covers Kangyun County, and his family is very wealthy.

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

In the past, Xu Ning sold the herbs he picked here every time, and Guo Ye never lowered the price.

"This is the medicinal material picked in recent days."

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

He has gathered the herbs and sorted them into bundles.

"I will call you."

Guo Ye's movements are very skilled.

"A total of three taels of silver."

Guo Ye calculated the price.

"Three taels?"

Xu Ning was a little surprised.

In my memory, these herbs are worth one or two halves at most.

"So many, you don't take care of me specially, do you?"

Xu Ning asked.

"No." Guo Ye replied, "The recycling price of cool dry grass has increased. It used to be three taels per pound, but now it is six taels per pound."

Saying that, Guo Ye took a bundle of cool dry grass in his hand.

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

But when I put it under my nose, I smelled it, but there was a faint smoky fragrance.

"The cool dry grass is six taels?"

Xu Ning's heart moved when he heard the price.

He suddenly thought of a memory of his predecessor.

A month ago, the predecessor accidentally turned to a place in Yunze Mountain. On the farther hillside, 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 there are poisonous insects and poisonous weeds. There is no small risk, so the predecessor did not dare to pick it after hesitating.

At the moment, my strength has grown, and the price of cool grass has just increased. Maybe I can give it a try.
