Yuhua stood there stunned, Hai Long's departure filled her with disappointment, but she had deeply remembered every word Hai Long said before leaving, turned her head to look at her sister, and secretly swore that no matter what No matter how difficult it is, I must find that Lianyun Mountain in November.
Far away from the mountain village, Hai Long regained his composure. Thinking of the way Yuhua caught him just now, he couldn't help being afraid for a while, and thought to himself, it seems that it would be better for him to show his skills less in front of people in the future. Otherwise, the same situation might happen again, but it seems that my little cultivation is not useless, at least the fish spirit I was bluffing was stunned. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly complacent. He raised his head and looked at the sun in the sky, then unfolded his body and continued on the road. After finally changing into clean clothes, although there were patches all over them, Hai Long still cherished them very much, and he was much more careful as he moved forward. Half a day later, under his full speed, he had traveled two hundred miles, and a majestic city appeared in front of him. This was the first time Hai Long saw the appearance of the city, and he couldn't help being slightly dazed. When he was young, he and Zhang Hao often fantasized about developing in a big city in the future. In this chance, I finally came to the outside of the big city I had dreamed of, and I couldn't help but feel like a world away. The big city in front of me was about 30 meters high, with flags flying on the top of the city, and groups of patrolling soldiers were constantly patrolling back and forth. Below, the city gate with a height of seven or eight meters was wide open, and many civilians were busy coming and going. There were about thirty guards standing upright on both sides of the city gate, and the passing merchants were often checked by them.
Hai Long dusted off the dust on his body, and strode towards the city gate with his head held high. He was full of excitement now, and really wanted to see what the city looked like.
"Stop." As soon as he reached the city gate, Hai Long was stopped by the guards. A man came up, looked at him with some doubts, and said, "Where are you from? What are you doing in Tongyuan City?" ?” Hai Long froze, looked at the soldier who was much taller than himself in front of him, and said, “I am from the Western Regions. I was originally on business in the Central Plains. After finishing my work, I will naturally return to the Western Regions. I just passed by here. Excuse me. Brother, how far is it from here to the Western Regions?"
The soldier glanced at him up and down, and said with some disdain: "It turns out that he is a foreigner, no wonder he looks rustic. This place is far away from your Western Region. It must be thousands of miles away to the west. Remember, you are not allowed to make troubles casually in the city, otherwise, don’t blame us for not being sympathetic, understand?”
Hai Long pretended to be groveling and obediently agreed, and the soldiers let him enter the Tongyuan City. Hai Long is in a very good mood now, he didn't care about the contempt and disdain of the soldiers, and walked quickly into the city he had longed for. As soon as he entered the city, Hai Long was taken aback by the hustle and bustle of the city. On the wide avenue, there are various shops on both sides, selling a wide variety of goods. Some young men who look like shopkeepers are constantly standing in front of their shops to attract customers.
"There are so many people! I have never seen so many people before. It is indeed a big city. Tongyuan City? What country does this Tongyuan City belong to? No, I need to ask someone." While thinking, he left In front of a shop by the road, the clerk outside the shop was shouting loudly, "Come and see! This shop has all kinds of precious medicinal materials, which are nourishing and healthy, come and choose some!" It turned out that this was a medicine shop. Hai Long leaned forward and said, "Brother, I want to ask you something."
The man glanced at Hai Long, saw his patched body, pouted, as if he didn't hear his greeting, and continued to sell. Some gorgeously dressed people came to the door of the shop, and he immediately went up to them, enthusiastically introducing the various medicines in their shop to them. Hai Long froze for a moment, and asked the same question again, but the guy still ignored him.
The anger in his heart gradually rose, Hai Long said slightly angrily: "Are you deaf, can't you hear me when I call you?"
The guy turned around abruptly, and said angrily: "What the hell are you calling? Don't interfere with my greetings to guests. Don't take a piss and look after yourself. You are so shabby that you are not worthy to ask me about it. Go away , otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." Hai Long clenched his left hand, almost mobilizing the power of blood and gossip under the condition of mixed anger and anger, took a deep breath, barely suppressed the anger in his heart, and said lightly: "It's really a dog's eyes! You are lowly, how do you know that I will not go to your store to buy things, do you look down on people? I just want to go in and buy something today." After finishing speaking, he strode into the pharmacy.
The guy froze for a moment, and hurriedly chased after him, but Hai Long walked quickly, and when he caught up, he had already entered the shop. This shop is very large, with a circle of counters around it. Behind the counter are four or five young girls entertaining customers. The positions against the wall are all tall medicine cabinets with various labels on them.
"Stop, you boy, get out, this is not the place you should come." The man grabbed Hai Long's skirt and wanted to pull it out. A cold light flashed in Hai Long's eyes, he stood there motionless, his mana was flowing, he flicked his right hand lightly, and immediately shook the guy aside. The buddy staggered, almost fell, and suddenly got angry, and cursed: "X you X, you are here to find fault, aren't you?" He raised his fist and was about to attack Hai Long. Hai Long's little patience has already worn out, and he was about to teach him a lesson, but he heard a somewhat old voice: "Xiao Saner, what's going on? Do you want to do it here? Do you want to do it here?" "Hearing this voice, the guy immediately calmed down, and hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Li, I, I just want to pull this kid out."
The shopkeeper called Li by the staff was an old man in his sixties. He was wearing a clean thick robe, and at some point, he had already stood inside the counter. He snorted and said, "What are you talking about? As long as there are customers coming, how can we just throw them out? Don't you understand the reason why customers come to your door? It's the same even if they don't buy anything. Go, go out and continue. Shout out." Under the majesty of the shopkeeper, the clerk Xiao San'er had no choice but to give Hai Long a bitter look, and continued to go out to do his soliciting business.
Shopkeeper Li's words won the favor of all guests including Hai Long. There were smiles on the faces of those who were shopping. Shopkeeper Li said to Hai Long with a pleasant face: "Little brother, what do you want to buy? Is there anything I can do for you? The medicines here are absolutely genuine. Of course, the corresponding prices will be more expensive."
Hai Long was stunned for a moment. He just wanted to ask the way before, and he entered the pharmacy just for a while. Hearing the question now, he couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment, and said, "Actually, I'm not here to buy anything." Shopkeeper Li smiled slightly , said: "It doesn't matter if you don't buy it, just take a look. If you need anything, just tell our service staff."
Hai Long's heart moved, he suddenly remembered something, and said: "Shopkeeper Li, thank you for helping me out just now. Do you accept medicinal materials here? I happen to have some medicinal materials that I want to sell."
Shopkeeper Li was taken aback, and said with a smile: "There is no reason why our medicine shop does not accept medicinal materials. If you have any medicinal materials, you may as well show this old man. I have raped in this way for dozens of years, and I still have some eyes for medicine. Yes." Hai Long nodded, and stretched his hand into his bosom, the Qiankun Ring in his hand was urged to draw out a piece of sealwort, which he picked to satisfy his hunger in the mountains not long ago because he was hungry. "It's not a good medicinal material, it's just a little sealwort." He said, and handed over the piece of sealwort that was just taken out and was the size of a palm.
Polygonatum is a very common medicinal material, and the price of ordinary Polygonatum is low, so shopkeeper Li didn't care much, especially when he saw that Hai Long only had a small piece, he shook his head secretly.
A faint fragrance came out from the crystal clear yellow essence, shopkeeper Li's eyes lit up suddenly, and he sent the yellow essence to his eyes, making a sound of surprise. "This, this is no ordinary Huang Jing!"
Hai Long was taken aback, Huang Jing was introduced to him by his masters. He picked and ate it in the forest because it looked similar to the one in the Lianyun Mountains. Now he came to the city. He had no money, and here was a medicine store, so he thought of selling some sealwort in exchange for some silver flowers. He is very smart, when shopkeeper Li said that this is not an ordinary Huang Jing, he immediately hit the snake on the stick and said proudly: "Of course it is not an ordinary Huang Jing, shopkeeper Li, you have to look carefully!"
Shopkeeper Li carefully looked at Huang Jing in his hand like holding a treasure, his old body was already trembling slightly. The guests also smelled the fragrance of sealwort, and couldn't help but gather together. Most of them are long-term customers of this medicine hall, and there are many wealthy businessmen among them. Of course, they know what a precious medicinal material means. A good product that can prolong life!
Shopkeeper Li lost his composure when he saw Huang Jing, and murmured: "This, this is Huang Jing, this is Huang Jing! Look at it, everyone, the one that is so crystal clear and contains hundreds of dark lines is the best of Huang Jing— Huangjing, I mean the emperor's Huangjing. This piece of sealwort has almost the same effect as thousand-year-old ginseng, and it has mild medicinal properties and is easier to absorb. It is really a rare treasure."
After listening to shopkeeper Li's words, the guests immediately burst into an uproar, and one of the chubby guests approached Hai Long and said with a smile: "Little brother, I think you can sell this imperial essence to me. It's up to you how much it costs. "The businessman has always been very shrewd. Of course he knows that if this piece of imperial essence is bought by the pharmacy and then sold, the price may rise a lot. Hai Long seems to be just a brat, so buying it from him will naturally be cheaper." There are many. There were quite a few people who had the same wishful thinking. When they heard the businessman's words, they immediately surrounded Hai Long, expressing their desire to buy this royal essence.
Hai Long concealed the excitement in his heart, neither agreed nor vetoed, just looked at the imperial spirit in the hands of shopkeeper Li. Shopkeeper Li was already in a hurry when he heard the words of these guests, and hurriedly said: "Everyone, gentlemen, thank you very much for your support to our pharmacy all the time, but after all, I promised this little brother to buy this piece of imperial essence first." Yes, and I plan to keep it for my own use, so please don’t argue, thank you, I thank you all.” Of course, the guests knew the status of Shopkeeper Li in Tongyuan City’s pharmaceutical industry, and when they heard him say that they wanted to use it for their own use, the scramble became more intense. Sheng.
"Stop." Hai Long's not-so-loud voice resounded in everyone's ears, and all the noise disappeared almost at the same time, and everyone's eyes could not help but focus on him.
Hai Long smiled slightly, and said happily: "Everyone, please listen to me, before, when that guy made things difficult for me, it was Shopkeeper Li who relieved me of the embarrassment, and later, it was he who said he was willing to buy the medicines I brought. Out of emotion and reason, I must sell this sealwort to him. To all of you, I can only say sorry. Shopkeeper Li, how about it. You make a price, and with your familiarity with medicines, I believe you The price must be very fair. As long as you offer it, I will never counter the price. If Huang Jing is dug up in the future, I will give you priority at the same price. How about it?"
Shopkeeper Li knew that his family background was far inferior to these wealthy businessmen. He thought he was hopeless, but he didn't expect Hai Long to say that. He was overjoyed and said gratefully: "Little brother, you really trust people. Don't worry." , The price that I will offer you is absolutely fair. How about it, one hundred thousand taels, one hundred thousand taels of silver. This is already the price of two thousand-year-old ginseng plants."
Although Hai Long knew that this imperial essence must be worth a lot of money, he didn't expect it to be so much, and said with emotion: "Okay, it's a deal, this yellow essence is yours."
Seeing that Hai Long had sold the imperial essence, the surrounding guests sighed and dispersed. Shopkeeper Li hurriedly said: "Dear guests, please don't be disappointed. Although I plan to keep this piece of imperial essence for my own use, I got a prescription before, which is mainly composed of imperial essence, combined with a variety of precious medicinal materials, to refine a kind of rejuvenation Pills. This Huichun Pill has the effect of rejuvenating the skin and maintaining health. This piece of Polygonatum is enough to refine dozens of pills. The so-called seer has a share. When the time comes, I will definitely sell each of you a pill at the cost price. What do you think?" After hearing this, the guests suddenly became emotional again, and thanked shopkeeper Li one after another.
Hai Long thought in his heart: "This shopkeeper Li really knows how to do business. The so-called cost price is not up to him. This way not only can make money, but also can't offend others. It really kills two birds with one stone."
After being polite to the guests, Shopkeeper Li immediately led Hai Long to the back hall of the store. He poured a glass of water for Hai Long himself, and then went to the back to withdraw money.
