It took only half an hour to get from Zhoujia Village to the town, but Zhou Ning felt like a century had passed.

After Shen Shi gave the driver the money, he led a group of people into the city.

Needless to say, Shen Zhong and Shen Xin went to school.

Shen Shi took Bai Zhao to the post station to mail a letter.

Liu Qingxiu knew that Zhou Ning was going to sell herbs and snakes, and was worried that a little girl like her would be bullied, so she followed her.

None of them knew much about the pharmacy, so they decided to try their luck.

"Rende Pharmacy, Aning, go in and take a look." Shen You said.

Zhou Ning looked up and realized that he was doomed. He couldn’t read.

But that didn't stop her from seeing that there was a medicine shop inside, so she took a big step and went in.

The pharmacy is not too busy at this time.

There were two guys dispensing medicine in the pharmacy.

Zhou Ning took advantage of one of them being free and hurried over to take out the bamboo basket and asked, "Young man, do you want to buy fresh pit vipers? They just died yesterday."

The boy's eyes widened, it was not that he had never seen the world. Snakes were very important medicinal ingredients and he usually handled snakes with his own hands. It was just magical that such a big girl was not afraid at all.

The young man recovered and took a look at the bamboo basket. The snake's brains were all exposed. It must have been a hatred and resentment for someone to beat it like this.

He glanced at Zhou Ning, who looked expectant, and said, "I can't make the decision. Wait a minute. I have to go call my master."

After saying that, he asked the boy next to him to look after the child and went to the backyard to find his master.

The young man kept looking back as he walked away. Zhou Ning noticed it and gave him a bright smile. The young man was a little scared and quickened his pace.

This little girl is not easy to mess with.

The young man used hundreds of words to describe how tragically the snake died.

"Master, you don't know, I have never seen such a miserable snake in my life, the brains, the brains, so much, this snake, oh, don't even mention how miserable it is, I am scared just looking at it..."

Zhang Zhao was really impatient and interrupted, "What on earth do you want to say?"

The boy then said, "There is a girl who wants to sell snakes."

Zhang Zhao then put down his teacup and said leisurely, "Isn't that enough? All right, call her over."

After receiving the master's instructions, the young man immediately went to the front to reply.

But when the waiter asked her to go to the backyard, Zhou Ning hesitated and said, "Can't we bring my sister, younger sister, and aunt with us?"

The young man thought about what his master said.

Call her over.

Come here.

She passed.

she was.

Not them.

The young man felt that he had understood what his master meant, so he said firmly, "Yes, only you can do it."

Zhang Zhao: I didn’t say that. Who would have known that she had such a big family?

Liu Qingxiu asked worriedly: "Will you be bullied? You are just a little girl..."

The young man was not happy and said, "Ah, alas, auntie, my pharmacy is very famous, how could I bully a little girl?"

Liu Qingxiu smiled and said, "Young man, you are right. I was overthinking it."

Zhou Ning smiled and said, "Aunt Shen, you, my sister, and Youzi wait for a while. I'll be back soon."

Shen You gave Zhou Ning a cheering gesture.

Boy: I’m speechless…

Zhou Ning came to the backyard and saw a man drinking tea leisurely under the peach tree.

The young man said, "Master, I have brought the person here."

After saying that, he left.

Zhang Zhao smiled kindly and said, "Little girl, I heard you want to sell snakes. Can you let me take a look?"

Zhou Ning agreed and put the bamboo basket in front of Zhang Zhao.

Zhou Ning: This man looks young, but his tone is so old-fashioned.

Zhang Zhao pulled the snake out. It was early April and the weather was not too hot, otherwise it would have rotted overnight.

After carefully examining it for a long time, Zhang Zhao said, "It's a good snake. If it were alive, it would be more valuable. But you left it there for a day, so some of it has rotted. I have to pick up the good ones to use."

Zhang Zhao looked a little embarrassed and said, "Since you are a little girl, I won't embarrass you. How about two taels?"

Zhou Ning didn't quite understand the prices in this world, so he tried to test it out: "Vipers have many benefits, such as dispelling wind, unblocking meridians, relieving pain, and detoxifying."

Zhang Zhao nodded.

Zhou Ning breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "You can also make pit viper head pills, which are very valuable. Although this snake of mine has no head, I will definitely give you one with a head first when I catch one in the future."

Snake: Remember, I originally had a head.

Zhang Zhao stopped him and asked, "Wait, little girl, what is viper head pill?"

Could it be that some of the prescriptions she knows are not available in this era?

Zhou Ning continued, "It's a medicine that can treat white scabies."

Zhang Zhao looked at Zhou Ning and motioned for her to continue.

Zhou Ning raised his eyebrows and kept silent.

Zhang Zhao hissed and said, "If you tell me, I can help more people. It's a good thing, so why not do it?"

"Look at me, is there anyone who needs help more than me?" Zhou Ning asked back.

There was indeed no one poorer than her. If she had taken a broken bowl on the street just now, she would have been begging for food.

Zhang Zhao closed his eyes and said, "Name your price."

Zhou Ning also hissed and said, "This recipe is an heirloom in my family. As you can see, it's a very valuable recipe. If I had no other choice, I would not sell it."

Zhang Zhao: This is a familiar routine.

Zhang Zhao slowly made the number two.

Zhou Ning: Hiss~

Zhang Zhao said impatiently, "Twenty-five taels, no more."

Zhou Ning smiled and said, "Including this snake and the herbs underneath it, the total is thirty taels, is that okay?"

Zhang Zhao had just seen it and picked at it, saying disdainfully: "Your herbs are worthless."

Zhou Ning: Hiss~

Zhang Zhao: "Have you become a spirit? I don't know if your prescription will work or not."

Zhou Ning said, "You pay me five taels first, and I'll write you the recipe. You pay me twenty-five taels, and I'll write you the instructions."

In fact, she wasn't sure whether this recipe would work or not. After all, she didn't know how the people here were different from those in her world.

However, she secretly checked the pulses of Liu Qingxiu, Zhou Wan and the two people who were poisoned by snakes yesterday and today. Generally speaking, the physical constitutions of the people here are similar to those in her world.

"Okay." Zhang Zhao agreed readily and went to the front hall to get paper, pen and silver.

Zhang Zhao first gave Zhou Ning five taels.

Zhou Ning didn't want to expose the fact that she couldn't read, as this would reduce her credibility.

She said, "I said, just write it."

Zhang Zhao agreed without thinking much.

Zhou Ning closed his eyes and thought, then said, "One each of the head of a belly snake, hedgehog skin, clam, and grub, seven each of leeches, horseflies, and geshangtingzhang, two centipedes, three large spiders, four broadworms, forty thunder balls, three attached, one liang each of mercury and cinnabar, one fen of Xiaoshi, one liang each of rhubarb, cinnabar, talc, gansui, and shewang, two liang of gypsum, half a liang each of Sichuan pepper and mangosteen, fifteen croton seeds, three fen of dragon bone, one fen each of alum stone and coptis root, and seven pieces of carp shell."
