Chapter 44: Loading the herbs and preparing to return
When Li Xiucai and Zhang the Hunter returned to Rende Pharmacy, the shop assistant had already prepared all the herbs. Li Xiucai took the list of herbs handed over by the shop assistant and compared them with the prescription written by the shopkeeper. After a while, Li Xiucai checked all the herbs. The shopkeeper carefully wrote down the herbs according to the prescription written by the shopkeeper, so that he would not have to worry about mixing them up when he returned.
"Boss, I have checked all the medicinal materials, and the types and quantities are correct. You even wrote down the names of the prescriptions. You are very careful. Could you please calculate the total amount? I will pay you." Li Xiucai said.
"It's what we should do. You're too polite. Besides, medicines are for treating illnesses and can't be taken randomly." The shopkeeper said seriously.
"Yes, shopkeeper. You are absolutely right." Hunter Zhang responded from the side.
The shopkeeper took his account book and told Li Xiucai the unit price and quantity of the medicinal materials, and asked Li Xiucai to calculate how much he spent in total. After the calculation, the two of them compared the numbers.
Li Xiucai borrowed the shopkeeper's abacus and started to calculate. After about twenty minutes, Li Xiucai calculated a number. The shopkeeper reported his number and it was the same number. Li Xiucai paid the bill to the shopkeeper.
"Boss, please ask your servant to help move the herbs onto the carriage." said Li Xiucai.
"Okay." The shopkeeper asked a few young men to help move several loads of medicinal herbs onto the carriage, and Zhang the Hunter also put the wine he bought onto the carriage. Li Xiucai and Zhang the Hunter covered the herbs with oilcloth and secured them with ropes.
"Boss, thank you for today. See you later." After saying goodbye to Zhang the Hunter, Li Xiucai drove the carriage back to the city gate.
"Brother Zhang, do you think Brother Yun can buy all the things on his list? I took a look before going into the city this morning, and there are quite a lot of things on the list that Brother Yun has. Not only are the quantities large, but the types are also many. I guess he will have to go to several stores to buy them all." Li Xiucai said worriedly.
"Don't worry, Brother Li. Brother Yun used to run a shop in town. He is knowledgeable and smart. He will definitely buy everything. I think Brother Yun will buy a lot of extra things. We are looking for a pharmacy and don't have time to go shopping. Brother Yun and Yun Yiyi need to buy a lot of things, so they need to look for different shops and will definitely have to visit several streets.
Brother Yun is well-informed. If he comes across something we are short of, he will definitely buy it. Moreover, he will not buy enough for his family, but for the whole village. Brother Yun is the kind of person who doesn't talk much, but is very reliable. That's why the village chief arranged for him to come shopping with us. " said Zhang the hunter.
"Yes, Brother Yun is indeed such a person. I remember when he was in the village, Brother Yun went to the town to open a shop every day. People in our village asked him to help buy things, and he always agreed happily. I don't think I have ever heard him refuse." Li Xiucai said.
"Haha, you're right. Sometimes, when my family catches prey, we don't have time to go to town. I always ask Brother Yun to help me send the prey to the restaurant in town. He is such a kind-hearted person." Hunter Zhang said happily.
"Brother Yun's children are all well raised and very sensible. Especially his daughter Yun Yiyi, who is a brave and smart girl. Last time, Yun Yiyi killed a snake and scared me. If I had encountered that snake, I would have run away in fear. But she killed the snake to save her mother. She is so filial." Li Xiucai said enviously.
"Little Yiyi from Brother Yun's family has been a smart and lovely girl since she was young. It's really enviable that Brother Yun has such a little girl." There was one more person who envied Yun the butcher.
"I don't know where Brother Yun and Yun Yiyi have gone. Have they reached the city gate?" Li Xiucai said as he glanced at the sun that was gradually setting.
"Brother Yun should be taking the child to the city gate now. He doesn't dare to take any risks with the child. The government has strict control over refugees hiding in the city, and no one dares to take any risks now." said Zhang the hunter.
"Yes, it is indeed very strict. However, I see that the city has changed a lot since the last time I came with my teacher. Last time we came, no matter which street was full of people, the shops were open, and it was very prosperous and lively. This time when I entered the city again, there were fewer people on the streets, and some shops on both sides of the street were not open.
Moreover, people on the street were walking in a hurry, which made people feel that the atmosphere was very tense. We walked around so many streets today, and the street where Rende Pharmacy was located was the most prosperous. The shops on that street were all big, there were many people walking on the street, and they sold all kinds of things. It looked like the original appearance of the prefectural city. "Li Xiucai sighed.
"I have never been to the provincial capital before. When I came in today, I found that the provincial capital is too empty and lacks the hustle and bustle of life." Hunter Zhang was also filled with emotion.
"Yes, there are so many refugees gathered at the city gate tower. People living in the city who are well-informed should know about it. Although the government restricts refugees from entering the city, it is not a good idea to continue gathering like this. Fortunately, we will leave tomorrow." Li Xiucai said.
"Yes, let's listen to the village chief. Let's leave this dangerous place early tomorrow. We don't know whether the road ahead will be easy to travel. It will take us a long time to get to where we want to go." Hunter Zhang said a little worriedly.
"Brother Zhang, don't worry. The things that Brother Yun and I bought in the city can solve our urgent needs. At least for a while, we don't have to worry about running out of food. Walking on an empty stomach and walking on a full stomach are definitely different speeds. Although we dare not eat as much food as we want and cannot eat 100% full, we can always have 60% or 70% full.
Think about it, the refugees we met on the way to the capital had almost no luggage, were as thin as a stick, and were dragging their legs to walk. We are much better than those people. Besides, we have Uncle Wu in our village, so if we really get sick, we don't have to worry about not having a doctor.
Moreover, you also know that when we went to the city this time, the village chief gave part of the village's silver to me and Brother Yun, so that we could buy food for the village. The food bought by the village is for backup, and everyone knows this. Therefore, the people of Yunjia Village have a way out. If the sky falls, we have the village chief and the elders, and we just need to follow their steps. Do you think I am right, Brother Zhang?" Li Xiucai said in a low voice.
"Haha, Brother Li, you are right. I have been thinking too much. Compared with others, the people of our Yunjia Village are very lucky." Hunter Zhang responded.
