Siheyuan: The strongest point adding system is bound at the beginning

Tong Ren Tang is located on Dashilan Road in Qianmen. At least half of the eight Shandong cuisine restaurants in the city are located here. This commercial street is no worse than Wangfujing and is still prosperous. It's a pity that there are so many century-old brands left.

The Tongrentang in Qianmen is not close to the Loushi Steel Rolling Mill where he works. It is nearly ten kilometers away, and it takes more than half an hour to ride a bicycle. After leaving the gate of the steel rolling mill, Liu Pingan went straight to Tongrentang.

It was the rush hour after get off work. Although there were not many vehicles on the road, there were many people! Liu Ping'an couldn't ride too fast because of the crowds. He rode at the speed of an ordinary person. But it was a good opportunity to appreciate the scenery of the city in this era.

I dawdled along the way, and when I arrived at Tong Ren Tang, it was almost 6 o'clock. I parked my bike at the door, and after entering, I said to the shopkeeper: "Give me half a pound of your best wolfberries. By the way, do you have ginseng seeds? The ones from Changbai Mountain are the best."

"Haha, this guest, how can this thing be the best?"

"But if we're talking about top quality, the ones from Ningxia, Xinjiang, and Qinghai are all good. Which one do you want?"

How could Liu Ping'an know which one of these things was better? In his previous life, he was not even old enough to soak wolfberries in a thermos cup! But now he was an 18-year-old man after all, and only children made choices.

He immediately said to the boss arrogantly: "Three kinds, half a pound each, separately."

Well, the boss's words directly made Liu Ping'an pay two more. But he would never lose money. If he planted a wolfberry today, he would have a steady supply of wolfberries in the future.

As the saying goes, the real purpose of a drunkard is not the wine, but the mountains and rivers. The farming gene is really engraved in our genes. Who doesn't dream of living a retirement life surrounded by mountains, rivers and countryside one day?

I brought the farming space in the novel into reality, and verified it in myself. Even without the golden finger-like spiritual spring and the black soil that can harvest a crop every ten days.

Hearing what Liu Ping'an said, the master of the pharmacy ordered his apprentice to go get some wolfberries for Liu Ping'an. In other words, the wolfberries Liu Ping'an bought were not dangerous, and he did not bring a prescription with him.

Otherwise, the master would never let his apprentices take the medicine. He would check the prescription carefully to make sure it would not kill people, and then he would dispense the medicine for the customers. The apprentices would just watch from the side.

While picking wolfberries for Liu Ping'an, the shopkeeper started talking to Liu Ping'an about the ginseng seeds he needed.

"These ginseng seeds have basically no medicinal value. We don't have them in our store, let alone ginseng seeds from Changbai Mountain."

"Besides, you want to buy ginseng seeds because you want to grow them yourself. Let me tell you, only wild ginseng has spiritual energy. The ones you grow yourself are not much better than radishes."

Liu Pingan was not disappointed when he heard this. He had already thought of this possibility when he came here.

He also had a plan B, which was to buy a ginseng, and in his own little world, use spiritual spring water, black soil, and the Green Lotus Flag, one of the Five Elements Flags that he had just practiced yesterday, to ripen the ginseng and let it produce a batch of seeds.

As long as he could feel a hint of vitality from this processed ginseng, he would have a chance to save it and realize his high-end medicinal wine plan.

Hearing the owner of the pharmacy say this, Liu Ping'an could only come up with another set of his own arguments and asked, "Then you must have ginseng from Changbai Mountain here, right? Show me."

Hearing this, the old master smiled, turned around, stepped on the stool, found the drawer with the ginseng label on the top of the medicine cabinet behind him, and took out several boxes, some big and some small, a total of three boxes.

Then he got down from the stool swiftly. His skills didn't match his white hair at all. It seems that he has a good way of keeping fit. He is worthy of being in the business of Chinese herbal medicine.

Then he smiled and placed it in front of Liu Ping'an and said, "Here are three ginsengs. They are all aged and good stuff. According to the size of the box, they are 10-year-old, 20-year-old, and 30-year-old Changbai Mountain ginsengs. They are all good stuff, but the price is not cheap."

"Oh! I wonder what the prices are?" Liu Ping'an asked curiously.

The old man picked up the smallest box, opened it and handed it to Liu Ping'an, saying, "This is a ten-year ginseng." Then he pointed a finger at Liu Ping'an and said, "One hundred."

Liu Pingan then released his mental power, wanting to feel the vitality in the ginseng. Damn, he went back and forth with his mental power several times, but he didn't feel anything. Liu Pingan used his mental power to go through the wooden board of the counter again, emmm. It was the same as when he had just seen through the ginseng. It turned out that his cultivation was not good enough! It seems that he can only touch it with his hands.

So I asked the master: "Can I touch it?"

Seeing the other party nodded with a smile, he didn't say anything, but just raised his hand holding the ginseng box towards Liu Ping'an.

Liu Ping'an immediately mobilized the Lotus Flag at his liver and felt the ginseng with his fingers. Although it was dry, the vitality inside was still there, but the dehydration was quite serious.

After arriving here, Liu Ping'an nodded with satisfaction and let go of his hand.

I am not interested in asking about the prices of the remaining two 20-year-old and 30-year-old ginsengs. The purpose of my trip has been achieved. What else is there to be dissatisfied about?

In fact, it’s mainly because it’s too expensive. This ten-year-old ginseng costs 100 yuan. You know, the older ginseng gets, the better it gets. Every ten years, the price increases exponentially. I think the 1000 yuan in cash I have is enough to buy these three ginsengs, but I will definitely become a pauper again. Do you know what the old man meant by taking out the other two ginsengs? Does he really have the words "rich dog" written on his face? Thinking about the cash reserves on him, this old man is really good at judging people.

The yellow croaker I had is gone now. I got three at the beginning. One was handed over to the bank, one was used to buy a house, and one was exchanged for treasure. Alas, without income, the gold and silver mountains will be eaten up!

It seems that my wine-making plan must be put on the agenda. Before the rural commune is established, I can take advantage of the time difference and increase my legal income.

Although there is no crime of huge assets of unknown origin these days, it is an important indicator for identifying spies.

Having finally settled down in this old city, Liu Ping'an doesn't want to go on a spur of the moment trip as he hasn't had time to get started with his new girlfriend.
