System: I am a second-hand dealer in the world of immortality
Chapter 7 Pisces Jade Pendant
"Yes, Shen Xia," Wang Xiaofang interrupted, "You must have moxa leaf powder there, give it to me quickly!" After that, everyone came over to grab it.
At this point, Shen Xia had no choice but to say her prepared words in advance: "Sister Xiaofang, Mr. Hu is right. Mugwort can indeed be disinfected to a certain extent, but I don't know if it is very useful. And I I only have a little bit of moxa leaf powder on me, and now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there are more and more mosquitoes, I want to keep it for myself."
"Why do you keep it for yourself? Haven't you seen that my husband and Xiaobao are like this? Shen Xia, do you have any conscience?"
"Sister Xiaofang, that's not what I meant. Of course I can give it to you, but after I give it to you, I have to spend my own money to buy mosquito repellent. This...otherwise I have to let your husband and son endure it. Just be patient and wait until supplies arrive in the next town, then ask the doctor to take a look."
"Please give me a price. How much will it cost if we buy your moxa leaf powder?" At this time, Mr. Wang Xiaofang spoke. Shen Xia looked over and saw several long, bleeding scratches on his hands. He must have been itchy all over.
"Half a tael of silver." Shen Xia knew that it was basically stable.
"Half a tael of silver? Shen Xia, why don't you go and grab it? I can buy 10 cans of mosquito repellent cream for half a tael of silver!" Wang Xiaofang scolded.
"Sister Xiaofang, I didn't force you to buy it. It was voluntary in the first place. That's all I can do. I kindly gave it up, but I still have to be scolded by you. Doesn't this take my kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs?"
"You'd better endure it and wait until the next town. Maybe if you endure it, your son will stop vomiting and his rash will be cured. However, if this situation is not dealt with in time, he may not be able to get there again. Just one town, it’s more economical, isn’t it?”
"Chen Xia, you little bitch! You're just trying to raise prices, you're just..." Wang Xiaofang was so angry that her whole face turned red.
"That's not true." A young man next to Mr. Hu interrupted Wang Xiaofang and said, "We businessmen all know that scarcity is the most valuable thing, let alone this moment of life and death?"
"That's enough!" Wang Xiaofang's husband roared, "Chen Xia, let's buy it. Xiaofang, go and pay, I want to use it now!"
Wang Xiaofang was so yelled at by her husband that she could only reluctantly buy a pack of moxa leaf powder from Shen Xia, and then she and her husband took their precious son to the river to wash it.
At this point, this farce is over.
It's just a hardship for the servants, who not only have to clean up the filth by the fire, but also clean up Wang Xiaofang's family's tent - it would be bad if the smell affects Mr. Hu's rest.
Everyone was busy, and some people even went to prepare supper. Only Mr. Hu and his party were sitting by the fire.
Shen Xia thought for a moment, then plucked up the courage and walked up to Mr. Hu: "Mr. Hu, thank you very much just now. I don't deserve this. I hope you will accept it." After that, he respectfully handed Wang Xiaofang's half a tael of silver. passed.
Shen Xia lowered her head and waited quietly for Master Hu's reaction.
After a while, she felt that the hand that was handed over to her was heavier. She looked up and found that Mr. Hu did not take away the money, but instead had a pure white Pisces jade pendant in his hand. She looked at Mr. Hu in confusion and did not take back her outstretched hand: "Mr. Hu?"
Mr. Hu looked at Shen Xia with a smile, and the firelight made his face look softer: "Shen Xia, you are smart, but it's a pity that your methods are a bit immature. This jade pendant is our Yun Pavilion's token. You can find it later." Opportunities, we still have opportunities to cooperate.”
Shen Xia felt shocked. She didn't know how to describe her mood at this moment.
The Mr. Hu in front of him seemed to be standing in the perspective of God. He watched a play and deduce the causes and consequences of the play. After the play was over, he transformed into a gambler and placed his bet on On Shen Xia.
"Mr. Hu, I..." Shen Xia didn't know what to say.
"Miss Shen, please accept it quickly. We only brought this jade pendant when we came out this time. If the master hadn't seen you fall in love, I don't know how long this jade pendant would have been kept." A man next to Mr. Hu said The young man spoke.
Shen Xia then took back her outstretched hand. The jade pendant felt smooth and oily. It was probably made of Hetian jade. Mr. Hu chatted with Shen Xia for a few more words and then sent Shen Xia back to sleep.
"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for purchasing and using oleander powder, experience +10. Please rate the host's satisfaction with this purchase, very dissatisfied/dissatisfied/average/satisfied/very satisfied."
"Very satisfied."
"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for reaching level 3. The backpack space is +10. Please keep up the host's efforts and create greater glory."
Yes, Shen Xia was the one who poisoned Wang Xiaofang's family. Shen Xia is not a tolerant person. The day she learned that she could buy things through Xiao Ai, she decided to take revenge. Even if it cost double the price, Shen Xia didn't want to swallow this breath.
Moreover, Shen Xia learned that purchasing and using the products in the system would also increase her experience, so she had nothing to worry about.
The groveling service she has been doing these past few days is just to make Wang Xiaofang's family relax their vigilance. When she helped Wang Xiaofang's family wash the dishes last night, she wiped the dishes with a rag that had been coated with oleander powder in advance.
So what if Wang Xiaofang is supervising the work? Didn't you see it too? Today, Wang Xiaofang and her son went to pick wild fruits. It was purely an accident. Even if they didn't pick them, Shen Xia would find other excuses.
However, this scene unexpectedly included Mr. Hu as a spectator. After lying down, Shen Xia put the Pisces jade pendant in her arms into her backpack, still reviewing her performance tonight in her head.
There were no flaws in his own performance, and others, at least Wang Xiaofang, couldn't see it. As for Mr. Hu, he only regarded him as a businessman's acumen, and Mr. Hu's various deeds showed that he was currently optimistic about Shen Xia.
When Mr. Hu just gave the jade pendant, everyone in the caravan looked at it. It was a clear path. At least no one would embarrass Shen Xia during the rest of the trip. I just don’t know how long it will take for Wang Xiaofang’s family to recover. I hope that after this incident, Wang Xiaofang can be more honest.
Sure enough, Wang Xiaofang had no time to act like a monster in the next period of time. Maybe it was because the food she ate was very small, so she showed no signs of poisoning. On the other hand, her son and husband could only lie on the bullock cart all day long. .
However, it was a disaster for the two young men and Shen Xia who were in the same car. In the first day or two, Wang Xiaofang's son suffered from vomiting and diarrhea. As a result, no one could sit in the car at all. He had to get out of the car and walk with the porters, or I went to squeeze people's oxcarts, but fortunately everyone showed understanding and a few seats were vacated after squeezing. That bullock cart became the special vehicle for Wang Xiaofang's family.
Just as we were approaching Tiansheng City, the rainy season began.
Shen Xia and the others are trapped in a town about 400 kilometers away from Tiansheng City. This place is called Qingshi Town, which is rich in bluestone. It is said that the steps and houses in Tiansheng City and even Qingyun City are made of bluestone here. Qingshi Town made its fortune due to Qingshi, but because it is the nearest large town to Tiansheng City, there are many merchants passing by, so the business in the town is also prosperous.
Qingshi Town was originally the last supply point for the caravan's trip, so Mr. Hu decided to rest here for a few more days to inspect the market sales of Yun Pavilion here.
There were no peers of the same age in the caravan, and she felt like she was getting moldy after sitting and watching the rain fall all day long. She heard that there was a palace and temple on the mountain not far from the town, so she decided to go out for a walk.
After greeting Wei Yan in the morning and carrying dry food for the day, Shen Xia went out holding an oil-paper umbrella.
The place where they live now is the real estate in Tian Pavilion, located in the center of the town. The palace and temple are located on Qingshi Mountain in the southwest of Qingshi Town. When listening to the aunts chatting two days ago, they learned that Qingshi Town first prospered from quarrying on Qingshi Mountain. The bluestone and the palace temple were also built during that time to worship the mountain gods.
However, as the bluestones on Qingshi Mountain have been mined, fewer and fewer people worship the mountain god. Now it is basically abandoned, and no one usually goes to worship.
People are meant to follow what they want and do what they want. Shen Xia doesn't comment on the Qingshi Town people's behavior. Now she just wants to find a clean place to relax.
During the time when Shen Xia went north with the caravan, she ate much better than when she was in Changliu Village, and she didn't need to engage in any physical activity, so she was completely different from the malnourished appearance she had when she set out.
Maybe it's because he's growing, so he still looks a little thin, but he's grown a lot taller, now about 1 meters tall, and a little fairer.
In addition, after Mr. Hu gave Shen Xia a jade pendant, several aunts became closer to Shen Xia. They helped Shen Xia change her clothes in Changliu Village into short shirts and tied them into a bun with a red rope.
At first glance, Shen Xia looked like a daughter from a family with a small childbirth.
Shen Xia was humming a song and walking up the mountain. The road on Qingshi Mountain was easy to walk, with steps paved with bluestone.
It's just that no one has taken care of it all year round, and both sides of the road are covered with weeds. However, this may be because the soil on Qingshi Mountain is not suitable for plant growth. The plants on the mountain are sparse and there are only some bushes, so Shen Xia can see the top of the mountain from the foot of the mountain. mountain temple.
On the way up the mountain, Shen Xia was still thinking about mixing some dry food and going out to worship the mountain god. She still didn't know what the process of worshiping gods in this world was, and whether the mountain god would dislike her dry food.
"Pfft~" Shen Xia couldn't help but laugh when she thought of this, "We are all downgraded people in the world, so don't worry about it. I am better than those ungrateful people."
As soon as she reached the entrance of the mountain temple, Shen Xia couldn't stop laughing.
