After the discussion, Wang Jinhe carefully packed up the ginseng and prepared to sell it tomorrow.
The next morning, after Wang Jinhe got up, cooked and ate, he handed Xiaobao to Old Lady Wang and went to the village entrance to take a ox cart to the town.
Xiejia Village is more than half an hour's journey from the town. After Wang Jinhe got on the ox cart, some people were obviously unhappy.
"Uncle Qi, why do you pull everyone together?" A woman looked at Wang Jinhe with disgust and said.
Uncle Qi frowned and glanced at the person who was speaking: "If you don't want to sit down, they will pay anyway, so why can't you sit down?"
Wang Jinhe looked at the old man driving the car in surprise. This old man was not afraid of offending others.
Wang Jinhe had experienced this kind of thing many times. In the eyes of these women, she got pregnant before marriage and gave birth to the child, which was an indecent behavior.
Unmarried girls in the village would not play with her, and her family only had one or two families with whom she had a good relationship.
Their family didn't care about this at all. After all, they were not from Xiejia Village.
They came here in the first place because of arrangements by the government. Even if the people in Xiejia Village were dissatisfied, they dared not say anything and could only exclude them privately.
"Some people just have no self-awareness. If they know they are shameless, they should stay at home and not go out to see people, so as not to ruin the reputation of our village." The woman didn't dare to say anything to Uncle Qi and could only speak to Wang Jinhe in a sarcastic tone.
Wang Jinhe didn't even look at her. She didn't mention anyone by name, so why should she care? She wasn't stupid enough to ask for a scolding.

Seeing that Wang Jinhe ignored her, the woman's face turned blue with anger, but she couldn't do anything about Wang Jinhe, so she could only mutter, "Shame on you."
Wang Jinhe closed her eyes and rested, but she was thinking about the spiritual spring at her fingertips.
Her spiritual spring water can promote the growth of plants and improve the taste of plants. For example, the cabbage I made before tastes crisp and delicious, a little sweet, and tastes very good.
She has not found a direct way to make money yet, so she is thinking whether she can grow vegetables to sell or if she buys watermelon seeds, she can grow watermelons.
There should be very few fruits in this place. If watermelons can really be grown, it will definitely be a huge income for them.
But by then, the people of Xiejia Village probably won’t just let it go. After all, everyone wants good things, let alone things that can make money.
Forget it, don’t think about it too much. The only thing she has to do now is to make money as soon as possible. As for how the people in Xiejia Village grow watermelons in the future, that is their own business.
After thinking it through, Wang Jinhe stopped thinking about these things. When the ox cart arrived in the town, he paid and jumped off the cart without even looking at those people.
After arriving in the town, Wang Jinhe was not in a hurry to go to the clinic to sell ginseng. Instead, he walked around the streets to take a look at the current living standards.
After a round of shopping, Wang Jinhe knew what the prices were at that time.
Tadu Novels is free, no ads, no pop-ups, and you can interact with fellow readers.
A pound of refined rice costs about fifteen cents, brown rice costs seven cents, and broken rice costs nine cents. A pound of meat costs twenty, sixteen, or fifteen cents. An adult man can earn about fifty or sixty cents a day's work. One thousand cents is one tael of silver. A family of seven like hers would spend about two taels of silver a year, and they had to spend frugally.
After learning about the prices and some information of that era, Wang Jinhe inquired about the medical clinics in the town and finally chose to try Jishidiang.
When he reached the door and was about to go in, he was stopped by the medicine boy: "What are you doing here?"
"People who come to the clinic are either seeing a doctor or selling medicine, or are they here to eat?" Is this medicine boy a little bit stupid? He can even ask such a stupid question.
"Go away, don't sell those messy herbs to us. Go to Renhetang instead. They are suitable for people like you."
Wang Jinhe looked a little unhappy when he heard what the medicine boy said.
After taking a deep look at the medicine boy, Wang Jinhe turned and left. With a medicine boy like him, this clinic was just like that.
After arriving at Renhetang, Wang Jinhe had just reached the door when a medicine boy came over and said, "Miss, what do you need?"
"I'm here to sell ginseng. Do you need some?" Wang Jinhe said in a low voice.
When the herbalist heard that the person was selling ginseng, he immediately invited her in: "Miss, please come in and take a seat first. I will go and ask my master to come out. Only my master can make the decision on this kind of herbal medicine."

"Okay." Wang Jinhe nodded and had a very good impression of this pharmacy.
Not long after, the medicine boy came in with a middle-aged man: "Master, this girl wants to sell ginseng."
The man nodded: "You go out first."
"Yes, Master."
"Miss, how is the quality of your ginseng? How old is it?" the man looked at Wang Jinhe and asked anxiously.
It would be great if it was ginseng of a high vintage.
Wang Jinhe took out the ginseng and said, "You can tell the quality and age by looking at it."
The man took the ginseng and looked at it carefully. He was surprised by its quality and age.
"This ginseng is one hundred and fifty years old, and the roots were intact when it was dug without being touched at all. I can give you this number for a ginseng like this." The man stretched out his hand and said.
"Fifty taels?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, five hundred taels. One hundred and fifty years of ginseng is only about four hundred seventy taels. I give you five hundred taels simply because the quality of your ginseng is so good." The man said happily. Now he had an explanation.
"Sure, can you help me change some change?" Wang Jinhe looked at the man and asked, "I want to go shopping."
"Of course, my name is Huang Qi. If you can find anything good to sell in the future, please give me priority. My price will be absolutely fair." Huang Qi looked at Wang Jinhe and said.
Wang Jinhe naturally would not refute: "Okay, if I'm that lucky again, I will definitely sell it to you, Uncle Huang."
Although there is magical spring water that can make ginseng grow, you should not be greedy and make quick money with this kind of thing. If you do too much, you will easily arouse suspicion.
However, if she wants to sell ginseng in the future, she will definitely give priority to astragalus. He did not lower the price because he did not know the market price, but gave her a very good price, which made her like such a person very much.
"Okay." Huang Qi happily went to get the silver notes and exchanged them for a few ten-liang silver notes for her.
"Uncle Huang, I want to buy some medicinal herbs." She wanted to bring back some seasonings to avoid having the food she cooked have tasteless.
"Just ask the medicine boy to get it for you." Huang Qi asked Wang Jinhe to find the medicine boy.
