Chapter 23: Get rich in one day

"Do you know how much two thousand is? You said two thousand?" Xie Kanglai narrowed his eyes.

The lion's open mouth was not as outrageous as hers.

Two thousand, why didn't she say twenty thousand.

"I don't know how much two thousand is, but does it affect me to want two thousand?" Shen Zhihuan blinked twice with an innocent look on his face.

"Besides, didn't you ask me what price I wanted?"

"..." Xie Kanglai was suddenly choked and speechless.

"Little girl, did you inquire about the market price of ginseng before you quoted me?"

Xie Kanglai took a deep breath and tried to reason.

"The quality of these two hundred-year-old wild ginseng is good, but ginseng, at a critical moment, someone will ask for it, not to mention two thousand or three thousand. But after all, it is a very special emergency situation. In peacetime, its The value is really not as high as you think.”

"It's our fate that you come to Baokang Pharmacy. In this way, I will give you eight hundred for these two ginsengs. What do you think?"

"Not so good!" Shen Zhihuan said as he stood up.

"One thousand." Xie Kanglai frowned.

Shen Zhihuan said nothing and walked towards the Eight Immortals table in front of Xie Kanglai in a muffled voice.

"One thousand and two." Xie Kanglai gritted his teeth as he saw Shen Zhihuan's hands reaching for the two ginseng sticks.

"Deal!" Shen Zhihuan curled his lips.

“…”

Xie Kanglai frowned and looked at Shen Zhihuan, who was smiling like a cat who had succeeded in stealing. A breath of suffocation was stuck in his throat and he couldn't get up.

"Little girl, you can't make friends if you do this business." Xie Kanglai looked at Shen Zhihuan who was counting money with a look of resentment.

Shen Zhihuan, who was counting money with his head down, didn't even raise his head, and just nodded to himself.

"I'm here to do business, not make friends." Shen Zhihuan wrapped the amount of money in a rag and put it into the cloth bag.

“…”

Xie Kanglai took a deep breath and turned his head to the side.

"Uncle, you are so angry that it hurts you. Take these to defeat the fire." Shen Zhihuan took out a small bag sewn with old cloth from his pocket and threw it on the Eight Immortals table in front of Xie Kanglai.

Xie Kanglai glanced at the little bag and snorted, "Who cares..."

"Don't count..." Shen Zhihuan laughed and reached out to take it back.

Before Shen Zhihuan's slender fingertips touched the small cloth bag, a thick hand had already snatched the small cloth bag away.

The moment Xie Kanglai opened the bag, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief and then raised his eyes to look at Shen Zhihuan.

"Really for me?" Xie Kanglai looked at Shen Zhihuan in disbelief, wanting to confirm again.

No matter how you look at this hob meat, it doesn’t look like such a generous person!

"Didn't you say you don't care about it?" Shen Zhihuan said with a smile.

"...When did I say that I don't care about it? What I said is, who cares about it?" Xie Kanglai pulled the rope on the mouth of the small cloth bag, then threw it into the low cabinet next to the Eight Immortals table, closed the door and locked it, and finished it in one go.

Everyone in the room was startled.

"What are you doing standing around here? I didn't see a kid here, and I didn't know how to bring some peach cakes and candies. Are you stupid?" Sensing the strange looks in several people's eyes, Xie Kanglai raised his hand and gave it to the person next to him. The little guy clicked the back of his head.

The boy glanced at Xie Kanglai like he was seeing a ghost, then rubbed the back of his head and rushed out the door.

"Uncle, there's no need to spend any money. If nothing happens, we'll leave first." Shen Zhihuan smiled lightly.

With these 120 tickets, their family of three could eat whatever they wanted.

"Little girl, if you have any good things in the future, remember to think about uncle!" Xie Kanglai said with a smile on his face.

"Sure! As long as uncle doesn't find me annoying." Shen Zhihuan nodded with a smile.

Xie Kanglai smiled apologetically and sent the three of them out of the backyard. Before the family of three could step out of the drug store, the boy who led them to the backyard chased them out with a bag of peach cakes and a bag of candies, and stuffed them into Xiao Weidong's arms without saying a word.

Xiao Weidong looked at the peach cakes and candies in his arms and didn't know what to do for a while.

These days, peach biscuits and candies are extremely expensive gifts, and they can only be seen when visiting relatives during festivals. Being stuffed into someone's arms suddenly is like a dream.

Li Qiuhua, who was standing next to Xiao Weidong, also stared blankly. She had been confused since entering the drug store.

At this moment, all she could think about was the pile of unity.

She has lived half her life and has never seen so many...

"Excuse me, brother, please thank uncle for me." Shen Zhihuan nodded politely to the young man.

"No trouble, no trouble. I have to thank you for letting me see my iron-rooster second uncle plucking his hair." The boy waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Thank you Sandan!" A roar came from behind the curtain connecting the medicine shop and the backyard.

The next moment, the curtain was violently lifted. Xie Kanglai, gritting his teeth, rushed to the counter and skillfully grabbed the feather duster.

At the same time, the little boy rushed out of the medicine shop as if he were on a hot wheel.

A family of three felt a dark shadow pass in front of them, and two figures chasing each other appeared on the streets of East Street...

Passers-by quickly moved to both sides.

Li Qiuhua pointed at the two chasing men with some worry, "They..."

"Mom, let's go!" Shen Zhihuan chuckled.

"What can't happen to them?" Li Qiuhua was still a little worried.

"Mom, just keep your heart in your stomach!" Shen Zhihuan dragged Li Qiuhua away.

What can a second uncle do to his nephew?

It's just a matter of two feather dusters.

When Xiao Weidong saw this, he reluctantly looked away, hugged Taosu and Tang, and chased after them step by step. When he reached the corner, he didn't forget to look back for one last look.

"Zhihuan, why don't we go back quickly!" Li Qiuhua glanced at the cloth bundle on Shen Zhihuan's wrist in fear.

Li Qiuhua's heart pounded when he thought of so much money sitting there.

"Mom, relax, it's okay." Shen Zhihuan looked at Li Qiuhua, who looked embarrassed and stiff with nervousness, and comforted him softly.

"Mom, we haven't climbed the tall building that Xiaopang mentioned yet!" Xiao Weidong gently tugged at the corner of Li Qiuhua's clothes.

"That's right! My little Weidong hasn't eaten the shredded pork noodles and braised pork that Xiaopang mentioned." Shen Zhihuan smiled and scratched Little Weidong's nose.

"I'm not hungry!" Xiao Weidong glanced at the peach cakes and candies in his arms and swallowed secretly.

Shen Zhihuan slapped his forehead.

I was busy appeasing Comrade Li Qiuhua and forgot about this little guy.

Shen Zhihuan took the peach cakes and candies from Xiao Weidong's arms, took out two pieces of peach cakes from the open paper bag and handed them to Xiao Weidong.

"We've been working hard all morning, mother, let's have some!" Shen Zhihuan took out two more pieces and handed them to Li Qiuhua, and took the empty basket from Li Qiuhua.

"You can eat! Mom is not hungry..." Li Qiuhua waved his hand quickly.

"Mom!" Shen Zhihuan called out in a deep voice.

Seeing that his daughter was really angry, Li Qiuhua hurriedly took the peach cake.

"Mom, eat it, mother eat it, isn't it okay?!"
