In any case, after riding in a mule cart for more than an hour, we arrived at Shangshan Town.

Xu Yixuan raised her head and glanced at the city wall not far away, and couldn't help but secretly said, "It's so quaint."

The city wall of Shangshan Town is not too high, actually four or five meters high. Not only were the city walls guarded by large soldiers wearing armor, but there were also officers armed with swords at the city gate. There is a big picture posted on the bulletin board on one side.

One of the guards was holding a large hand-painted portrait and comparing it to the middle-aged men passing by.

Xu Yixuan's eyesight was not bad, and she could almost recognize the wanted criminal on the bulletin board at a glance. If it wasn't Xiao Jinren, who was it?

Because most of the people on the mule cart were women, even Tao Wan'er, who was accompanied by a woman in men's clothing at the moment, was only a young boy of twelve or thirteen years old, so he was naturally dismissed impatiently by the official.

Of course, if you want to enter Shangshan Town, you not only have to check the household registration book or a road guide that can prove your identity, but you also have to pay five copper coins. Previously, according to Aunt Chen, every time I entered Shangshan Town, I only needed one copper plate, but now the price has obviously increased.

Thinking about it, outside the city gate, many people in ragged clothes gathered in twos and threes, looking at them, they must be refugees who have not been properly resettled. In fact, Xu Yixuan just glanced at it unintentionally and found that most people's eyes were empty and confused, and there were many greedy and ruthless people among them.

It's no wonder that Aunt Chen and others suggested that Xu Yixuan and Tao Wan'er join them to avoid being targeted.

But Xu Yixuan still declined Aunt Chen's kindness, and even wanted to separate from Tao Wan'er for a time. After all, she really had something to do when she came to Shangshan Town to attend the big market.

"Wan'er, I want to go to the medical clinic first, and then to the rice and grain store."

Tao Wan'er, who originally wanted to go to the embroidery workshop first, thought of his second brother's instructions before coming, so he had to change his mind and said, "Then I'll accompany Sister Xuan'er to the medical clinic first."

"..." Xu Yixuan said coldly, "What benefits did your second brother promise you?"

"Of course it's white fox fur... No, no, the smelly second brother doesn't have any benefits." Tao Wan'er waved her hands in denial.

"Forget it, let's go together." Xu Yixuan was too lazy to expose the obvious lie. She seemed to casually inquire with the nearby vendors, but in fact she went straight to the medical center in the town.

When she arrived at the medical center, Xu Yixuan sold the scattered herbs in her basket. After deciding to temporarily settle in Taoyuan Village, these herbs were dug in the back mountains with the aboriginal people in the village, and of course the Tao Wang family.

The portion is not large, and the variety is even more varied. The most valuable ones are probably the two Polygonum multiflorum roots. Especially the one that looks like a human being, is at least fifty or sixty years old, and should be sold for a lot of money.

Tao Wan'er raised her head and glanced at the plaque at the door of the medical center, and suddenly smiled: "Sister Xuan'er, I didn't expect that there is also a 'Materia Medica' here."

The clever waiter immediately came up to him, bowed and reported back: "Back to this young master, our Bencaotang has opened many branches in Dongqi Kingdom. From the accent of the young master, he must be from a wealthy family. , the official saying is really good."

Xu Yixuan, who vaguely realized something was wrong, frowned slightly but did not speak immediately. Tao Wan'er on the side coughed slightly, changed his tone slightly, and replied disapprovingly: "You can speak that Mandarin, what's the fuss about."

"This little brother, do you have any prepared herbs at home?" Xu Yixuan, dressed in a dusty floral jacket, said as she pushed the bamboo basket on her back towards the waiter, "There are large pieces Do you want to harvest the Purple Crow Vine at your home?"

"Purple Wu Teng? Collect drops, collect drops. Master..."

"Listen, Xiao Ni'er, come here and let me take a look." The old doctor at the side, who had closed his eyes to rest, waved his hand and asked Xu Yixuan to follow him to the inner room. When Tao Wan'er saw it, she immediately raised her feet to follow Xu Yixuan.

Obviously, the waiter was not willing to let Tao Wan'er follow, but because of the old doctor's look, he did not dare to stop him.
