Afterwards, Lu Jiayao arranged for her eldest daughter-in-law, Lin, to come and take care of the old ancestor.

Lu Shengwen's eyes fell on Lu Baiyin, and he nodded with satisfaction: "As expected of the second son's eldest grandson!"

He let out a sigh of relief. He had been feeling very nervous during this period.

After all, this time his mother's illness came suddenly and severely, and he had been afraid that she would not be able to survive this time, and he had prepared himself mentally for the worst.

But I didn't expect that what the master said was true.

He slowly said: "This time, thanks to the century-old ginseng that Brother Yin brought back, otherwise our ancestors would not have been able to survive this disaster.

The ancestor is fine now and doesn't need so many people to serve him here.

Everyone go back, the old man just needs to rest from now on."

Hearing this, the Lu family members all looked at Lu Baiyin: "Brother Yin, it's OK!"

Another great thing was accomplished quietly.

However, the Lu family has a clean and upright family tradition, and everyone looks at him with gratitude at this moment.

Lu Shengjie also waved his hand to everyone and said, "Everyone has worked hard during this period. Now that our ancestors are safe and sound, everyone should go about their business."

After that, he paused again and said, "Brother Yin, stay."

He guessed that his brother probably had something to ask Yin Ge'er.

After everyone left, Lu Shengwen said to Lu Shengjie, "Second brother, your brother Yin is quite good. He should be credited with the main credit for our ancestors' work this time."

Lu Shengjie said with a smile: "Brother, he was just lucky."

Lu Shengwen looked at him meaningfully, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

At their age, what's so difficult to admit?

Luck is also an indispensable part of life!

How many people have achieved success overnight because of that little bit of extraordinary luck?

At this time, Lu Shengwen waved to Lu Boyin and said, "Brother Yin, come over here quickly."

Before Lu Boyin could recover from the fact that his uncle was praising him, he heard his uncle ask, "Brother Yin, where did you find this wild ginseng?"

After hearing this, Lu Baiyin came back to his senses immediately. He straightened his face and replied, "Uncle, uncle... I bought this from a small county town in the south of the Yangtze River."

After listening to this, Lu Shengwen instantly became interested: "Oh? There are such good quality goods in the small county town down there!"

Lu Shengjie was also a little curious. After all, he had been running Ren Ai Tang for many years and was considered knowledgeable.

At his age, he has handed over the shop to his eldest son.

To be honest, this wild ginseng is of very good quality and it doesn't seem to have been unearthed very long ago.

So, he said to Lu Boyin: "Brother Yin, tell me what's going on."

At that time, everyone was in chaos, and all the young people in the family went out to various places to look for medicinal herbs..."

According to the master's advice, it was speculated that the mother's life force was in the south.

So all the young men in the family were sent out to look for the elixir.

He remembered that Yin Ge'er went to the Liangjiang area, but the Jiangnan area was indeed a good choice, as there were many Ren'aitang stores there.

"At that time, I went to Pengze County in Jiangzhou, where there was a Ren'aitang that had been run by a family for decades."

Before this, he had only found two ginseng plants that were several decades old.

Pengze was his last stop in Jiangnan. After a few days, he no longer had high expectations.

He had originally planned to leave that night, however, when he went to say goodbye to Shopkeeper Li, he happened to meet a brother and sister who came to sell this precious medicinal herb.

So that's it. Lu Shengwen then asked, "Did you ask the brother and sister how they got this rare treasure?"

“According to them, it was also discovered by chance deep in the mountains.

At that time, I had already given them three thousand taels of silver and promised that Ren'aitang would help them realize their three wishes. " Lu Shengwen was quite satisfied after hearing this, and felt that this nephew acted generously and appropriately.

In this way, neither party owes the other anything.

He taught earnestly, “As for these three requests, as long as the other party does not make excessive demands, the Lu family will do their best to assist in fulfilling them.

This is not only to repay the other party, but also to accumulate blessings for the ancestors.

Money is just a thing outside of the body, and the most important thing is to be alive."

"I understand, uncle."

"Yes, go ahead. I'll chat with your father-in-law for a while."

Wait until Lu Baiyin left.

Lu Shengwen's face was full of admiration: "Second brother, your child is really good. Ren Ai Tang has a successor. You don't have to worry too much in the future!"

Lu Shengjie also smiled and stroked his beard, "Brother, you are right."

In a house in the back three alleys of the county town, Jin was busy pouring wine for Manager Niu.

"Master, please try it and see if today's wine suits your taste."

At this time, Shopkeeper Niu was holding the graceful and slender Jin with one hand, and with the other hand he took the wine glass handed to him by her and drank it all in one gulp.

Then he smacked his lips and said, "Hmm, it tastes good, it's really a good wine! You should try a sip too."

As he spoke, Shopkeeper Niu picked up the wine glass and brought it to Jin's lips.

Jin didn't appreciate it. She twisted her body and said angrily, "Master, please stay here tonight."

Shopkeeper Niu was not unhappy, instead he pinched her waist and fed her a mouthful of wine, and then she drank the rest of the wine, "Okay, the woman over at the mansion has gone back to her parents' home, and she won't be back for a while.

Then I'll rest here tonight.

I feel wronged to you.

When I have complete control over the entire restaurant, I will bring you and Dalang back to live in the mansion."

Hearing this, Jin said delicately, "You promised me this yourself!"

"Of course, I can't go back on my words once they've been spoken!"

Shopkeeper Niu promised solemnly.

Hearing this, Jin immediately smiled, her eyes rolling around, and then she pretended to be shy and began to untie Manager Niu's belt, and said in a delicate voice: "I will help you change clothes..."

"Hahahahaha, good, very good! I am truly a blessed man!"

After a while, intermittent sounds were heard from the house.

The old woman guarding the door couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "What a foxy woman! This shopkeeper Niu is really good at acting!"

He says one thing in front of others and another behind their backs. Poor original wife is still kept in the dark and knows nothing. She still thinks she is marrying a good man!

To Chen's Cloth Shop, Gu Qingzhi sent two thousand silk flowers.

Madam Chen pulled her aside and praised her endlessly, "Sister Zhi, you don't know that the two hundred silk flowers we put out that day were sold out in an instant!

It would be great if there were more silk flowers. We have to seize the market before others imitate us.

But I have also seen those imitations, whether in terms of material, workmanship or pattern, none of them can compare to what you have made."

Gu Qingzhi smiled and nodded, saying that they would increase production next and there would be no problem as long as the market feedback was good.

Then she added, “By the way, Aunt Chen, I also brought you some basketry.

These ten are the ones you have reserved, and the others will be kept in the fabric shop to see how the market conditions are.

Oh, and I made some baskets, too.”

When Madam Chen heard this, her eyes lit up and she thought to herself that Madam Zhi was really a very good person!

She looked at the baskets and hand baskets that were delivered and exclaimed, "The workmanship is so exquisite.

OK, then leave it here with us."

After careful consideration, Madam Chen said, “These woven baskets, the small ones are twenty cents each, the larger ones are thirty cents, and the more delicate ones are fifty cents.

As for the price of the basket..."

After Madam Chen gave the prices one by one, she asked Madam Zhi whether she was satisfied.

Gu Qingzhi nodded slightly with great satisfaction. These prices were even a little higher than she had expected.

So she smiled and thanked Aunt Chen, expressing her gratitude to Aunt Chen for helping her sell these woven baskets and hand baskets.
