Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top

Chapter 208: What are you doing collecting the fragrant fruits?

Yang Qingfeng hurried to the pharmacy where Xiuying used to sell herbal medicine. The shop was filled with the faint aroma of herbs, and the shop assistants were busy behind the counter.

Yang Qingfeng walked into the store with an anxious look in his eyes. Beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead and he looked a little nervous. This time, Xiuying gave him a lot of angelica and specifically asked him to take this opportunity to sell some.

Yang Qingfeng took a deep breath, held the angelica tightly, and walked towards the shopkeeper with a firm step. There was a hint of anticipation and nervousness in his eyes, and his hands were slightly white from the effort.

The shopkeeper, who was sitting behind the counter, fiddling with his abacus, looked up at the sound of footsteps. Yang Qingfeng quickly handed the angelica root to him, and the shopkeeper took it and examined it carefully.

The shopkeeper narrowed his eyes and looked Yang Qingfeng up and down, then his gaze returned to the angelica in his hand. At one glance, the shopkeeper recognized that he was the one Xiuying called.

The shopkeeper smiled knowingly and said, "I knew right away that you were sent by Xiuying. She used to come to me to sell herbs, and I'm very familiar with her."

The shopkeeper gently stroked the angelica and continued, "The quality of this angelica is quite good. It seems that Xiuying is still as reliable as ever."

Disasters often only affect the poor. In this city, the rich still lead a life of peace and prosperity, extravagance and extravagance.

In the deep courtyard, the sound of stringed instruments is endless, and the tables are filled with delicious food.

However, many ladies and young ladies in the city still live a life of luxury. They never stop pursuing nourishing health and like to stew chicken with angelica to nourish their bodies.

Looking at Yang Qingfeng standing in front of the counter, the owner of the drug store couldn't help but feel a lot of thoughts in his mind.

He thought to himself that, ultimately, the hardest hit by this disaster were the poor people, displaced and starving. Meanwhile, the wealthy families in the city continued to live a life of luxury. Thinking of this, the boss sighed softly.

Many ladies in the city love to use angelica to stew chicken for nourishment, so the demand for angelica has always been high. I originally thought that it would be difficult to obtain high-quality angelica during this drought, but I didn't expect Xiuying to be able to deliver such a good product.

The boss couldn't help but reveal a relieved smile on his face. This was a blessing in disguise. At least his pharmacy business could be maintained, and those wealthy families in need could be satisfied.

As he thought about it, he decided to accept the angelica at the previous price, as a way to give some support and help to Xiuying and the others.

Yang Qingfeng stood aside, looking at the shopkeeper with a slightly awkward expression, his heart full of anticipation. The shopkeeper took the angelica and examined it repeatedly, then a kind smile appeared on his face.

The shopkeeper raised his head, looked at Yang Qingfeng gently, and said slowly: "Young man, although the world is not very good nowadays, our friendship still exists. I will still buy this angelica according to the previous price." After that, the shopkeeper called the clerk to come over to weigh and settle the bill.

When Yang Qingfeng heard this, he immediately felt relieved and quickly said with gratitude: "Boss, you are such a good person, thank you so much!" A joyful smile broke out on his face, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally fell.

The shopkeeper waved his hand and said, "Xiuying is a very honest girl. The things she brings are always of guaranteed quality. I trust her. This time, I'll just help your village."

Following the shopkeeper's instructions, the clerk completed the weighing and pricing skillfully and handed the corresponding amount to Yang Qingfeng.

Yang Qingfeng happily collected the silver and carefully put it into his arms. Then he looked at the owner of the medicine shop eagerly and asked, "Boss, I'd like to ask you if you buy dried angelica and wolfberry? If so, how much do you charge?"

There was a hint of anticipation and uneasiness in his eyes as he stared closely at the expression of the drugstore owner, as if he wanted to get a glimpse of the answer in advance from the subtle changes.

This time, in addition to asking him to sell the angelica, Xiuying also wanted to inquire about the purchase price of the dried medicinal materials.

Yang Qingfeng rubbed his hands unconsciously and continued, "We still have some stock in the village. If the price is right, I can bring some next time."

After he finished speaking, his throat choked unconsciously, and his expression became more nervous as he waited for the drugstore owner's answer.

When the owner of the drugstore heard Yang Qingfeng say there was still stock, his face lit up with joy. His eyes lit up instantly, and the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a happy smile.

The boss quickly said, "That's great! Dried angelica is naturally more expensive than fresh. After all, dried angelica has been processed and dried, so it can be stored longer and its medicinal properties are more stable."

As he spoke, he raised a few fingers to indicate the price difference.

"The same goes for goji berries. As long as they are of high quality and properly dried and stored, the price I offer will be absolutely fair."

The shop owner patted his chest and promised, his tone full of urgency and expectation: "Go back and tell the villagers, I want as many as you can get."

The boss's eyes revealed his eagerness to acquire the company.

However, he couldn't commit to a firm price before seeing the quality of the herbs.

The owner of the drugstore frowned slightly, his expression becoming serious and cautious. After all, he was not only a doctor who saved lives but also a businessman who had been in the business world for many years.

He was thinking to himself that he knew the rules of the business world very well: the price must be based on the actual quality of the goods.

Although he was quite satisfied with the angelica brought by Yang Qingfeng, and believed that their village could produce good medicinal materials, any promise he made before seeing it with his own eyes might be risky.

The drugstore owner coughed lightly and said slowly, "Young man, you have to understand me. In business, if you set a price before you even see the product, if the product isn't satisfactory, it'll be hard for me to continue my business."

But I can assure you that if the medicinal materials are of good quality, I will give you the highest price in the market."

His eyes were sincere and firm, trying to make Yang Qingfeng understand his position.

After hearing what the medicine shop owner said, Yang Qingfeng paused, then took a deep breath and asked, "Then...then why are you buying passion fruit?"

He almost squeezed out the last few words from between his teeth. His expression seemed a little embarrassed and unconfident, and there was a hint of hesitation and uneasiness in his eyes.

He himself didn't quite believe that anyone would buy dried fruit. He thought to himself, isn't it better to eat fresh fruit? Especially when it comes to passion fruit, a fruit he's never heard of. Yang Qingfeng frowned, his face full of confusion and uncertainty.
