There is only one pharmacy in the town, which is an extremely scarce human resource among ancient doctors.
Doctors with some ability are either poached by big pharmacies or invited back by various families for their own use.
In a small town like theirs where no one cares, there is at most one barefoot doctor.
Therefore, apart from a clerk and a shopkeeper, the medical clinic does not have any doctors.
Lin Mengya talked about the few medicinal materials she lacked.
Fortunately, although this pharmacy is not big, it still has a complete range of medicines, and some of them are produced locally by the ancient people, so the pharmacy has them in stock.
It's just that the quality of the medicinal materials is a bit unsatisfactory.
So she just asked if there were better medicinal materials, and she could buy them with more money.
Who knew that the shopkeeper told her helplessly: "To be honest, we also want to buy more good medicinal materials, but there is no way. Large quantities of medicinal materials are in the hands of other families. Even if we want to If you buy from drug farmers, you can only pick up the things they don't want. Alas, this world is getting more and more difficult, and I don't know how long I can maintain my small business."
Given the current predicament of the Ancient Clan, Lin Mengya also felt that the Ancient Clan was slipping in an extremely dangerous direction.
But after all, this is an internal matter within their ancient tribe.
She can help her friends, but she can't force others to change their minds.
Presumably the shopkeeper just complained to her.
When the waiter quickly wrapped all the medicinal materials and handed them into Long Tianyu's hands, they paid the money and left.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they left, someone came in and wanted to requisition the medicinal materials in the medicine shop.
When the shopkeeper saw the other person's appearance, his face immediately wrinkled into a bitter melon. This was a big shot that he couldn't offend, so he had to quickly go up to him to please him.
"Oh, it turns out it's Manager Qin. We're doing a small business, so please show your kindness and let us live."
With that said, the shopkeeper took out the silver that had not yet been warmed and quietly gave it to Manager Qin.
Of course he was reluctant to part with it, but compared to the money, it was of course more important to keep his own small pharmacy, otherwise his whole family would have to drink from the northwest wind.
Manager Qin is a middle-aged man in his thirties. He is quite handsome, but his eyes reveal a bit of shrewd calculation. You can tell at a glance that he is someone who is not easy to mess with.
At this moment, he was just weighing the money in his hand, and the curve of his mouth was hypocritical and cold.
"Why do shopkeeper Yan have to be so polite to me?"
Shopkeeper Yan immediately said flatteringly: "It should, it should! Without your care these years, my small shop wouldn't be able to keep running."
In fact, I scolded this greedy bastard hundreds of times in my heart.
Which store in this town hasn't been threatened by this bastard
Even a large part of the monthly profit was used to deal with this bastard, but I didn't expect that he was not satisfied yet.
Manager Qin stuffed the money into his arms with satisfaction, but said in a high-sounding voice: "Since it is shopkeeper Yan's wish, I won't be polite to you. So, even though the medicinal materials in the shop have been requisitioned by us Yes, but I will try my best to get you some compensation, what do you think?"
Shopkeeper Yan was very anxious, thinking how could this be done
Even if there is really compensation, I'm afraid this guy will take away most of it.
, when the medicinal materials in his shop are gone, and the compensation is gone, wouldn’t it mean that both money and goods are wasted
By then, wouldn’t their family be forced to a desperate end
For a moment, he even wanted to resist out of anger.
However, after seeing that all the people brought by the other party were carrying life-threatening knives, he could only swallow this breath.
It doesn't matter if the goods are gone, as long as their family can survive.
Shopkeeper Yan's unwillingness was also the source of his powerlessness.
There was no way, they all relied on Manager Qin and the people behind him to survive.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to collect the lowest-grade medicinal materials.
And he also thought about buying some fields, real estate, etc., but for the ancient clan in his heart, all the better fields were in the hands of those families, and he couldn't buy them at all.
Moreover, he himself comes from a small family, and the family is unable to provide them with shelter and can only release them to make a living.
The current situation of the ancient tribe is like this. It only makes people feel that there is no reasonable place in the world.
As Shopkeeper Yan's shop was expropriated, other shops in the town were also expropriated and taken over one by one.
Of course, there were some who were determined to resist, but in the end they were suppressed by force.
At this time, Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu had already left the town.
So I didn't even know that the town had been quietly replaced by another group of people, and these people were probably coming with bad intentions.
It was getting late when they both left.
Originally, according to the two people's plan, they could stay in the town for one night.
But Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu are both cautious people.
The unusual behavior of the restaurant clerk also made the two of them wary. Therefore, they would rather sleep in the wild than take risks in the town.
Fortunately, Long Tianyu had a lot of experience in surviving in the wild, and the insect repellent drugs Lin Mengya carried with him greatly ensured the safety of the two of them.
The two found a secluded place, built a bonfire, roasted some steamed buns brought back from the town and ate some, and then they cuddled up against each other to keep warm.
People like them staying overnight in the wild are naturally very conspicuous. However, because the two candidates are in relatively remote locations, even if there are fire and smoke, it is not clear from the outside.
There was silence everywhere. Lin Mengya was held in Long Tianyu's arms. The two of them were covered only by a thin but warm cashmere blanket.
This was stuffed into the small bundle by Baisu when he was packing it for her.
Sometimes Lin Mengya had to sigh at Bai Su's thoughtfulness.
Anyway, every time she packed something for herself, there was nothing that she couldn't use.
The two chatted in low voices, and the topic revolved around everything they experienced in the town today.
The two people had almost the same views. They felt that those people might be coming for them, so they had to be more careful after returning this time.
After talking for a while, Long Tianyu tenderly kissed his wife's forehead.
"You take a nap first."
Lin Mengya was not polite to him. She said "hmm" and curled up in her arms and closed her eyes.
By the way, let Xiaoyao set an alarm clock for herself, and she would come to replace Long Tianyu in the middle of the night.
The fire gradually extinguished, and Long Tianyu hugged her happily, feeling extremely sweet in his heart, but he still put down his guard.
Because of the deworming veterinary medicine, they don't have to worry about wild beasts or poisonous insects attacking them.
What they are guarding against is people.
However, the first half of the night was uneventful, until Lin Mengya was woken up by Xiaoyao. Then she opened her eyes and saw that her man had left at some point.
As for her, she was placed next to a tree root in the leeward direction. It could be seen that Long Tianyu was not in a hurry when he left, and he even gave her some disguise before leaving.
Since he didn't wake her up, there shouldn't be much danger.
Therefore, Lin Mengya did not walk around after waking up, but hid herself more secretly. At the same time, she also mobilized her keen five senses to observe the surrounding situation.
Soon, she heard someone approaching, and the footsteps were very familiar.
She immediately felt relieved, ran out and saw Long Tianyu.
The latter also heard the movement, guessed it was her, and his expression softened.
"Are you okay?" She ran over immediately and asked in a low voice.
Long Tianyu shook his head, gently touched her hair, and replied: "I heard some noise just now. I thought someone was chasing me, so I went out to check."
Is anyone chasing them
Lin Mengya frowned slightly. She didn't expect those people to react so quickly.
However, she also has many enemies in the ancient tribe, and each one of them is quite powerful.
Even she had to "admire" herself, maybe because of her innate physique to attract evil
Otherwise, why would enemies come to visit you from time to time
Of course, she was just teasing herself.
She certainly has more allies than enemies.
This is the case with people in the world. Even if she can be bullied honestly and honestly, in the eyes of some people, isn't she still a thorn in their side and they want to get rid of her
And she was just safeguarding her own interests. She needed the ancient treasure to save her child, so she found a way to borrow it.
If the other party had said that they would not lend him out from the beginning, she would not have thought about pestering him.
But what's the result
On the one hand, the ancient tribe used the treasure as a temptation to "invite" her over, and on the other hand, they wanted to enslave her, occupy her family property, or even replace her.
She even wanted to show courtesy first and then fight, which showed the sincerity of the ancient clan. But now
Some things really can't be thought about in detail. Anyway, she now understands a truth. When someone wants to use his shamelessness to defeat you, don't let him get used to it and just slap him back.
"Who is it?" She made a guess and felt that it was probably the group of people who met secretly.
After all, they wanted to become the so-called priest.
Priest Priest, upon hearing this, he knew that he was either going to kill her or take her life!
Long Tianyu said: "They are not chasing us. It seems that we have disturbed others."
"Huh?" Lin Mengya suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
But they really didn't know there was anyone else here before.
"How about we leave now? By the way, since we have disturbed others, we must give them some compensation, right?"
