Chapter 11 Absolutely Absolute
Zhang Wanshan was frightened when he saw the shopkeeper’s reaction, and asked quickly, “Shopkeeper, what’s wrong?”
"Old man, where did you get this spiritual grass?" The shopkeeper was extremely surprised.
"What? Spiritual grass?" Zhang Wanshan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously lowered his head to look at Gu Chan standing next to him.
Gu Chan held her head high with a harmless smile on her face.
The platform was higher than her head, so she couldn't see the wonderful expression of the shopkeeper inside.
Zhang Wanshan quickly reached out and picked up Gu Chan in his arms.
Gu Chan stared at the shopkeeper and said, "My grandfather accidentally dug it up when he was chopping firewood in the mountains."
"Old man, you are really lucky! You managed to dig up a spiritual grass. I'm really impressed by you."
"Haha... Yes, I'm lucky." Zhang Wanshan quickly covered it up with a dry smile.
Gu Chan secretly blinked at him, indicating that he must cooperate.
Zhang Wanshan understood instantly and immediately asked, "Shopkeeper, how much can I sell this spiritual grass for?"
"Yes! The quality is average. It must have been dug out for a few days and has been dried. There is still water mist on the leaves. It must have been soaked in water. I will give you eighty taels of silver at most."
A profiteer, a real profiteer!
Even if it was of average quality, it was worth at least one hundred and fifty taels of silver. He had a really dark heart when he stabbed this fat pig in half with a big knife.
Zhang Wanshan didn't know how to understand, but when he heard that this small medicinal herb could be sold for eighty taels of silver, his eyes suddenly lit up and his heart became happy.
Gu Chan secretly stretched out her hand to pinch his arm to stop him from getting excited, then looked at the boss Lao Cheng and said solemnly, "Eighty taels? Are you cheating on me, the shopkeeper? I've heard that spiritual herbs like this, even if they are of good quality, Normally, it can be sold for at least 150 taels of silver, but the one my grandfather dug up only lasted two or three days. Not only is it fresh and in good condition, it can be sold for at least 200 taels of silver."
"..." The shopkeeper.
Zhang Wanshan was very excited, "What? Two hundred taels of silver? Real or fake?"
"Grandpa, we won't sell it to him anymore. We'll go to another pharmacy and ask again." Gu Chan resorted to aggressive tactics.
Zhang Wanshan cooperated and quickly reached out, trying to snatch the spiritual grass back from the shopkeeper's hand.
The shopkeeper quickly took a step back and put on a smile, "Don't bother me! We're talking about business! Let's talk about it later."
"Why, are you snatching it now? Grandpa, if he dares not to give us the spiritual grass, he will report it to the official." Gu Chan's tone was strong and not timid at all.
The shopkeeper was depressed, stared at Gu Chan and said angrily, "I said you kid, you look young, but you have a mouth full of power. I'm really scared of you, so I'll give you one hundred and thirty taels." Silver, no more."
"No, two hundred taels of silver, otherwise I won't sell it."
"This spiritual grass is really not worth two hundred taels of silver. The real spiritual grass that costs so much must be dug out and sold within three hours. Only if we can transplant it into the soil can it be considered to be in excellent condition. Yes." The shopkeeper explained earnestly.
Gu Chan looked at his face and found that he really didn't mean to lie.
Zhang Wanshan also whispered in her ear this time, "One hundred and thirty taels of silver is a lot. It is enough for us to pay the poll tax, and there is still thirty taels of silver left to cover our living expenses for at least two months. ”
Gu Chan ignored her grandfather and glared at the shopkeeper, "Then the lowest price is 150 taels of silver, so just give us 130 taels."
"Boy, what do you mean?" the shopkeeper wondered.
"You don't have to give me the remaining twenty taels, just help me with something." Gu Chan rolled his eyes slyly. The shopkeeper's eyes changed instantly.
If he had only looked at Gu Chan and Gu Chan with contempt and arrogance just now, then when he looks at them now, he will pay more attention to them. Especially for a child like Gu Chan to be able to do business so well, this is even more disappointing. There was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
Therefore, the shopkeeper also became interested and jokingly said, "You are a big kid and know how to do business. That's fine! Let me hear it. You want to spend twenty taels of silver. Please ask me to help you with something."
"Find a powerful thug to go to Jiuyang Village and give Zhao Erniu a good beating." Gu Chan's face was cold, she clenched her fists and spoke decisively.
Zhang Wanshan stared at her, his jaw almost dropped in shock. He never expected that the grandson he accidentally picked up would be so bold.
The shopkeeper shook his head, "For twenty taels of silver, I don't have to offend you Jiuyang Village local snake."
"Only the three of us know about this matter. If we don't tell it, who would know that you sent the person? Moreover, my grandfather and I will often go into the mountains to cut firewood. Maybe we will be lucky enough to dig up the spiritual grass again? We still Long-term relationships can be established.”
"..." The shopkeeper stopped talking again.
Gu Chan took advantage of the victory and pursued her, "You have to think carefully. If you don't agree to my condition, I won't sell this spiritual herb to you. We will take it to another pharmacy. The shopkeepers are also rushing to get it, and they are very happy to do so." Long term cooperation with us.”
"Boy, you are really a talented person in business. Okay, I will help you with this favor today. It means we can become friends. If you dig up spiritual grass in the future, remember to sell it to me."
The shopkeeper didn't hesitate anymore. Out of his appreciation for Gu Chan, he finally agreed.
Then he brought a piece of red cloth, carefully wrapped the spiritual grass and put it away, then took a pen and paper to write down the sales ticket, and asked the waiter to get 130 taels of silver and handed it to Zhang Wanshan.
Zhang Wanshan took the bag of silver that had settled down, his face flushed with excitement, and his whole body was trembling.
Gu Chan had a calm face, showing wisdom and calmness beyond her peers.
After the ticket was signed and fingerprinted, the shopkeeper handed the ticket to Gu Chan and said to her, "You go back first, I will immediately find a master to go to Jiuyang Village to beat Zhao Erniu. In this way, wait for you After we got home, the masters came back after beating him up.”
"Okay, thank you very much, shopkeeper. To express my gratitude, I will give you half a spiritual grass."
As Gu Chan said that, she reached into her arms again and took out a red bauhinia grass. She quickly broke it in the middle and threw the lower half of it to the shopkeeper without hesitation. She then stuffed the upper half back into her arms. In arms.
The shopkeeper was holding half a redbud plant in his hand, and he was dumbfounded on the spot, extremely surprised.
Zhang Wanshan also looked dumbfounded and couldn't believe this fact.
He thought that Gu Chan only had one spiritual grass, but he didn't expect that she had another one in her arms. The most important thing was that she was so greedy for natural resources that she casually broke a good spiritual grass in half. !
This... is absolutely amazing!
"Grandpa, why are you still standing there? Let's go!"
Gu Chan ignored the two people's surprise, smiled at Zhang Wanshan, said these words, then turned and walked out of the medicine shop, leaving only a handsome back, which completely shocked the two of them.
Zhang Wanshan was stunned for several seconds, then recovered and chased him out.
"Quick, quick, come here, ask a master to come over."
As soon as the two of them walked out of the drug store, the shopkeeper quickly shouted at the waiter in the store, not daring to neglect them.
After all, spiritual herbs are rare, and Gu Chan sees more than one. To such a God of Wealth, he naturally has to be enthusiastic and offer it properly.
