After Picking Up the Lucky Girl, the Whole Village Became Prosperous Chapter 34

Chapter 34 Entering the county town

 April Mengxia, the locust flowers are fragrant.

Li Langzhong was teaching his grandson how to identify medicines in the medicine shop, when he suddenly saw Jiang Sanlang walking in with a basket on his back.

Jiang Sanlang bowed his head to Mr. Li and said, "Old man Li, I baked some golden ears again, can you see if you can keep them?"

Hearing this, Langzhong Li immediately became energetic. He stroked his beard and said, "Take it and take a look."

 Jiang Sanlang placed the basket on the counter and uncovered the linen cloth.

The basket on his back is filled with bright yellow, and the fist-sized golden ears are like yellow hydrangeas, which are very eye-catching.

 Li Langzhong was surprised. He raised his eyes and asked Jiang Sanlang: "Where did Sanlang find so many golden ears?"

Jiang Sanlang scratched his head and said sheepishly: "I didn't find it, I grew it at home."

"No wonder." Li Langzhong was even more surprised, "No wonder they are all about the same size and the color is so pure."

 He picked up one and pinched it. It was very dry. If he pressed harder, the golden ear made a clicking sound, as if it would break in the next moment.

"Sanlang has put a lot of effort into it." Li Langzhong said with a smile: "It's well made. If you keep it well, it can last for a year."

He stretched his head to look at the golden ear in the basket and muttered to himself: "I have to find something to seal it up."

He turned around and told his grandson to get two buckets to hold the golden ears.

This thing cannot be put under heavy pressure to prevent it from breaking.

 The little grandson ran to the back hall in a hurry.

 Li Langzhong took out the basket and began to weigh the golden ears.

"A total of three kilograms." Li Langzhong said: "Based on ten guans per jin, I should give you thirty guans. Does Sanlang want copper coins or silver ingots?"

Although Jiang Sanlang already knew how much the golden ears he brought today could be sold for, he still felt dizzy after confirming it again.

Mom, thirty guan is equivalent to 30,000 copper coins. It must be carried in a basket.

However, there is still a lot of copper coins at home, which is enough for half a year's expenses. So for now, it's better to get silver ingots for easy storage.

“Silver ingots, I need silver ingots, they are easy to carry.” He said with a smile.

Li Langzhong also smiled and asked his grandson to come and put the golden ears while he went to the backyard to get the silver.

This time he took five taels of silver ingots, six in total, and they were placed in front of Jiang Sanlang with shining silver.

This was the first time Jiang Sanlang saw so many silver ingots. He couldn't help but chuckle and put them into his pocket one by one.

He put an empty basket on his back and asked, "Old man Li, I still have some golden ears at home. Do you still want them?"

Li Langzhong was shocked when he heard this, "What? There's more?"

"Well, my family planted a lot this time, and what I brought back today is only 40%." Jiang Sanlang said.

This time it was Li Langzhong's turn to scratch his head.

He said, "Sanlang, to be honest, the golden ears I collected are only temporarily stored. After all, most of the soup is consumed in autumn and winter.

Now I can only collect so much, and if it's more, I won't have cash to pay. Otherwise, take it to a large drugstore in the county town to have a look. "

Jiang Sanlang was stunned and bowed to Mr. Li, "I understand. Thank you, Mr. Li, for the tip."

 Back home, Jiang Sanlang was a little depressed.

Although I have earned another thirty taels of silver, most of the remaining golden ears have not been sold.

Moreover, his eldest and second brothers are also eagerly looking forward to planting golden ears with him to make a fortune.

 But now Li Langzhong will no longer accept them. If the golden ears cannot be sold in the future, the eldest and second brothers will be so disappointed.

Chunniang saw that her husband looked strange and asked quickly: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Sanlang repeated what Li Langzhong said and sighed: "Li Langzhong's medicine shop can't accept so many golden ears. It seems that I have to go to the county town tomorrow."

Ying Bao heard this from the side, her eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly raised her hand, "Dad, I'm going too! I'm going to the county seat too!"

Seeing how anxious his little girl was, Jiang Sanlang couldn't help laughing, "What are you going to do?" "I'm going to sell gold ears. Dad, please take me there." Ying Bao waved her father's sleeves coquettishly.

 “Okay, I'll take you there.”

Jiang Sanlang picked up his daughter and said to his wife: "I will go to the front yard to discuss with the eldest and second brothers to see if they are free tomorrow. It will be safer for us brothers to walk together."

If the golden ears can be sold in the county town, a sum of money will come in. It will be bad if you encounter robbers on the way back, so you must have a few strong men to go with you.

Furthermore, since I plan to take my eldest brother and the others to grow golden ears together, I need to find a merchant who can buy them stably. Otherwise, the brothers will be busy and their work will be in vain.

 “Well, you go.”

Chunniang looked at her daughter worriedly, "But do you really want to take Bao'er? It's so unsafe on the road."

Yingbao didn't wait for her father to answer, and immediately answered, "I want to go! Dad promised to take Bao'er with him."

Chunniang glared at the little girl and said, "Naughty, Bao'er doesn't want a younger brother?"

"I want a younger brother. Bao'er comes back from the county town and brings delicious food to his younger brother, and also to my mother."

Both brothers are seven months old and can eat something to grind their teeth. She is going to the best pastry shop in the county to buy milk cakes for her brothers.

Chunniang:…

Jiang Sanlang smiled, "Let her go. When the time comes, take Dacheng with him and let him carry Bao'er."

Ying Bao narrowed her eyes with a smile and nodded repeatedly, "Mom, don't worry, Bao'er is not naughty, Bao'er is useful."

Chun Niang had no choice but to poke the little **** the forehead, "Then you must be obedient and not run around. There are bad people in the county who will steal babies, especially babies like you."

 “Well, Bao'er doesn't run around.”

 The next day, Jiang Sanlang borrowed a donkey cart from the Muramasa family, and carrying two baskets of golden ears, the three brothers headed for the county town.

Of course, Ying Bao and her cousin Jiang Cheng were also on the donkey cart.

 Starting out at dawn, stopping and walking all the way, we didn't arrive at the city gate until noon.

 The soldiers guarding the city made them pay five cents for the carriage and horse tax before letting them go.

 After entering the city, a few people drove around in donkey carts, mainly looking for a pharmacy where they could buy golden ears.

Yingbao lived in the county town for several years in her last life, so she knew the layout of the county town well.

 She directed her father to drive the car, turn left and right, and entered a busy street.

The streets are lined with shops, colorful flags are fluttering, people pushing carts carrying burdens, people leading donkeys and horses, and pedestrians of all kinds come in an endless stream.

Yingbao pointed to a store: "Dad, that is a drug store."

In her previous life, she had brought her younger brother to see a doctor and get medicine at this house. The doctor in charge had superb medical skills, and the shopkeeper was also very trustworthy.

 I just don't know how I am now, whether it is the same as in my previous life.

Jiang Sanlang looked up and saw that it was indeed a drug store.

 “Jiukang Medicine Hall.”

 Looking at the name, you can tell that it is a long-established medicine hall.

“Big brother and second brother, let's go and have a look.”

Jiang Sanlang called to his two brothers, "Take a basket of golden ears first, and put the rest in the car for Dacheng to watch."

Jiang Dalang Jiang Erlang responded, got out of the car, straightened his clothes, and dusted off his shoes, and then followed his third brother to Jiukang Medicine Hall.

  Ying Bao was held in his arms by his father, his eyes rolling around.

Jiukang Medicine Hall seems to be small in size at the moment, and there are not as many medicine cabinets as in the previous life.

 But the Jiukang in the previous life was already the Jiukang Medicine Hall more than ten years later, so naturally it cannot be compared to it now.

 Enter the shop, Jiang Sanlang handed the little girl to his second brother, stepped forward and handed over to a dispensing clerk who was about 17 or 18 years old: "Is the shopkeeper of your shop here?"
