Chapter 10 Temporarily Unworkable Ways to Make Money

In the early morning of the next day, Bai Shuo got up early, and hurriedly fetched water to wash before the people in the main house came out.

After taking care of himself and Zhuang Qingyun, he changed into his old clothes and went out happily with his money.

He went to Wu Zhuzi's house first, and wanted to ask them for help about the house. He could have moved to another place, but Zhuang Qingyun's physical condition is not suitable for bumps, so Bai Shuo decided to stay in the village and wait for his injury. Let's talk better.

Knocking on the door of Wu's house, Wu Zhuzi happened to be at home, Bai Shuo explained his purpose, the Wu family couple were a little surprised, but still very happy, they were happy that Zhuang Qingyun had Bai Shuo's care.In short, no matter how hard you work in the future, it is better than being abused by others in the dealer.

Bai Shuo followed Wu Zhuzi to the village chief's house. The village chief took care of all major and minor matters in the village. Generally, when someone left the village, they would entrust the village chief to keep or rent out the house and land.

The house of the village head is the best built in the village. There are five big houses with blue bricks and black tiles. Style, the living conditions at home are also one of the best.

On the way here, Bai Shuo heard from Wu Zhuzi that there was an official son in this village, who was assigned to be an official in another place after passing the examination. subsidized by the government.

The village chief's surname is Wei, he is about 50 years old, Bai Shuo explained his purpose, and the village chief took out a book that looked like an account book and flipped through it for a while.

"Are you the daughter-in-law of Zhuang Qingyun, the second son of the Zhuang family?"

"Yes" Bai Shuo listened to this awkward toe-picking address.

"There is an old house here, which meets your requirements. It can be lived in after cleaning, but the monthly rent is set high by the owner, so it has been idle. The most important thing is that the landlord agrees?"

"Zhuang Qingyun agrees." Bai Shuo knew that the ancient rules were strict, and he was married and young, so the village chief didn't think he could make the decision.

The village head still doesn't believe it, because he knows the character of Zhuang Cheng's wife. At that time, Zhuang Qingyun and the money distributed were brought back from the government with someone. His mother-in-law took it away without even a thank you, and later I heard that she didn't even invite a doctor.

However, Bai Shuo talked nonsense, and with Wu Zhuzi talking beside him, he persuaded the village head to agree.

The house is a somewhat dilapidated blue brick and tile house. It is said that a family moved to the county town to live in a prosperous family. It is a bit old, but the things inside are complete.

A large bedroom, a main room, and a kitchen and utility room, and a small side room for bathing and the like. There is a small open space in the small yard, which Bai Shuo plans to use to grow some vegetables. The courtyard wall is also made of high blue bricks, which protects the privacy of the courtyard very well.

What satisfied Bai Shuo the most was that there was a well in the yard, so he didn't have to go out to fetch water in the future. Although he was strong, he didn't want to have to go out to fetch water every time.

It's just that the house is good, and the rent is expensive. It costs [-] Wen a month, which is a big expense for the people in the village, but Bai Shuo is very satisfied. As long as he stays away from the best people's house, he doesn't have to live in the damp and windy thatched grass It is not a problem if the house is more expensive, he has money now, and he can make money by picking medicine in the future.

So I paid enough for one year's rent at one time, and spent [-] yuan, prepared to clean it up, and moved in after two days of drying. After all, there are no people all year round, and the dust is very thick, so ventilation is always good.

After thanking the village chief, he followed Wu Zhuzi and led Xiaohu to the town, which was agreed before.But Bai Shuo still told Du Hu that he had time to take care of Zhuang Qingyun.

Bai Shuo was going to the town to buy some household items, otherwise the two of them would have nothing to eat and cook, nor would they have anything to drink from the northwest wind, and the dried herbs had to be sold as soon as possible, or they might be killed. Mrs. Zhuang, the eldest son who looks like a bandit has been ruined.

Wu Zhuzi went to the agreed tavern to deliver the hunted prey, and Xiaohu was purely to follow the adults to watch the excitement.

Sitting in the bullock cart of Uncle Fang's house at the entrance of the village, each person paid two Wen and set off staggeringly.

When he arrived at the market in Qingshan Town, Bai Shuo separated from the Wu family and his son, and made an appointment to meet up. He was going to sell the herbs in the basket first, and make room for things to store later. The visiting doctor.

Looking around, this town is like the ancient town I have been to before, but there are relatively more shops selling things on both sides of the street, and the ground is paved with bluestone slabs. It seems that Qingshan Town is quite wealthy.

Bai Shuo bought three meat buns at the bun shop at the corner of the street for five cents, ate one for himself, and kept the rest for the Wu family and his son. By the way, he inquired about the medical center in the town.

In Qingshan Town, there are three relatively large medical clinics, among which Xuanjitang is the most famous and powerful. It is said that someone in the owner's family used to be an imperial doctor in the palace. Several old doctors who have rejuvenated their hands come to the clinic.

Of course, the cost of medical diagnosis is also the highest.

There are two other ones, one is the Huichun Medical Center and the other is the Materia Medica House. Although the strength is not as good as the Xuanji Hall, they are also the medical centers that people in the town often go to when they are sick.

And Bai Shuo locked on Bencaoju, because the doctors in this clinic can not only go out for outpatient consultations, but also accept the herbal medicines sent by the countrymen at a fair price.

There is no clerk at the entrance of Bencao Residence, and the antique foyer can smell the strong fragrance of medicine as soon as you enter. The counter, but it is much higher, and the shopkeeper who grabs the medicine inside has to stand.

At this time, there was no one coming to see the doctor, so the doctor was not in the front hall, only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old drug boy was learning to keep accounts with the middle-aged shopkeeper. When he saw Bai Shuo walking in, he stopped talking quickly.

"My little brother, what's wrong with you?" The shopkeeper put down the abacus in his hand and walked out of the counter. He didn't look down on Bai Shuo because of his clothes. Instead, he had a proper smile on his shrewd face.

"Uncle, I heard that you can collect medicine here, so let's take a look."

"Oh? What kind of medicine did my little brother pick? We won't take it if the appearance and properties of the medicine are damaged."

The shopkeeper took the vaccination in advance, fearing that the thin little brother would cry if he couldn't sell the medicine.

Bai Shuo put down the basket, and took out the Panax notoginseng, Angelica dahurica and Clover that he had processed in it. The herbs were in perfect condition, and it could be seen that the people who picked them worked hard.

"Uncle shopkeeper, can you take these herbs?"

Bai Shuo felt a little uneasy, because he didn't know the types of medicines in the medical center of this era, and he didn't know whether the medicines he took were what the medical center needed.

"Accept it, why don't you accept it? Your Panax notoginseng and Angelica dahurica are very well preserved. How about I give you fifty coins for these, and you can send them to me when you pick the medicine in the future."

How much is fifty words?Bai Shuo didn't have a specific concept, but the house he rented in the village was [-] Wen per month, and the three meat buns he just bought were [-] Wen, which meant that the amount of medicine he picked yesterday was equivalent to one month's rent four times, which can be exchanged for Thirty meat buns.

Well, it's a good deal.

"No problem, Uncle shopkeeper, but how much can I charge for this Sanyeqing?" Bai Shuo pushed forward the Sanyeqing who had been taken care of by him.

The shopkeeper looked at the amazingly growing stone mouse, shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother, don't tease me. This stone mouse cannot be used as medicine. It is an ordinary weed in the mountains, and it has no medicinal properties."

Stone mouse?Bai Shuo remembered that Sanyeqing did have this alias, but it was impossible without medicinal properties. The only reason why people in this era don't understand it may be that they don't know that stone rats have to grow for more than three years to have medicinal properties. Used as medicine.

Bai Shuo smiled and took back Sanyeqing and put it in the back basket, without saying much, since it is something that has not been recorded in this era, he cannot rashly bring it up, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble, and Sanyeqing is the most commonly used in modern times As for tumor diseases, it seems that such diseases did not appear in ancient times, so this widely used medicinal herb is likely not to be accepted.

Bai Shuo felt a little depressed. It seems that the method of selling money with Clover is not available for the time being, but let's find a way to publicize it when there is a chance in the future.

After collecting the fifty coins handed to him by the shopkeeper, he looked at the empty consultation table and asked, "Uncle shopkeeper, can the doctor in the clinic go out for treatment? Someone in my family came back from the military service and was seriously injured and couldn't move. Can you?" Let the doctor come to my house to have a look."

"The Materia Medica has doctors who go out for diagnosis and treatment, but they need to pay some outpatient fees. Generally, it is one tael in the town, and two taels of silver if it is far away. If you bring patients to the museum, it is five hundred cash, and the medicine fee is extra. After you pick the medicine, send it to me here, I will give you a cheaper price, how about charging you a tael of silver?"

"Thank you, Uncle Shopkeeper, then I'll go shopping first, and I'll call the doctor later."

"It's okay."
