Chapter 43: Our family is really going to die
Lin Sanqi really wanted to sing a folk song to D. It was unbelievable that two hundred-year-old wild ginseng was obtained so reasonably, legally and easily?
But now his character is to do things for others, so he must be calm and collected, but why are his legs so weak?
When Lin Sanqi paid the money and arrived at the pharmacy, the two ginsengs had been put into a wooden box specially used to preserve ginseng, fixed with red rope, and dried chrysanthemum flowers were placed under the ginseng.
The dried chrysanthemum flowers are not only antiseptic and insect-proof, but also allow the floral fragrance to penetrate deeply into the wild ginseng. When decoction is taken, the fragrance is refreshing and appetizing.
In an era without vacuum packaging and cold storage, this was the best way to preserve wild ginseng, and it was very particular.
Fu Muxiang personally handed two pieces of wild ginseng into Lin Sanqi's hands, but still did not forget to say:
"Brother, this wild ginseng is not easy to preserve. You are buying it for others. It is best to send it to others quickly. If it is slightly bumped, the loss will be huge."
Nearly 2,000 yuan in cash is a huge amount of money that people in this era can't even imagine.
If it weren't for the prohibition of buying and selling houses, 2,000 yuan would be enough to buy a small courtyard house with a single courtyard.
Lin Sanqi disagreed: "I know, sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm going to give the ginseng to you now. By the way, do you want to bring anything? I'll bring it to you by the way."
Fu Muxiang became interested as soon as she heard this. She leaned her head closer and said softly:
"Is there any way you can help my sister-in-law get some cooking oil? There is no oil at home..."
"Uh..."
Lin Sanqi blushed a little: "Okay, I'll take care of this and I'll make sure to complete the task."
Fu Muxiang took out 1 yuan from his pocket, feeling a little embarrassed thinking about it: "Brother, you get the cooking oil, and I'll give you the money. Look at what I'm wearing now..."
No one carries a large amount of money with them these days, and there would be no place to cry if they lost it.
"Okay, sister-in-law, why are you being polite to me? I'm leaving first..."
"Be careful on the road..."
Lin Sanqi turned a corner, came to the corner, found a door and pushed in. After a while, when she came out, there was no ginseng in her hands, but her PLA bag became bulging again.
Zhou Mingzhe was still packing things in the medicine store when he heard someone knocking on the door, and then Lin Sanqi's head poked in.
"Hey, what's wrong with you kid?"
"Uncle Zhou, I have some local specialties. You can bring them back to my aunt to eat."
After saying that, he saw a paper bag thrown at the door, and Lin Sanqi had already closed the door and ran away.
"This kid, haha..."
Zhou Mingzhe walked over, picked up the paper bag, and opened it.
Oh~~~
A paper bag full of brown sugar weighs at least a pound, so this gift is not light.
It was only then that Zhou Mingzhe realized, like Dean Shen, that the youngest son of the Lin family was really something special. He was definitely a figure.
This move cost thousands of dollars in cash, and the gifts were all tea and brown sugar that could not be bought on the market. I must have a lot of skill behind the scenes.
"It seems that I have to win over this guy in the future..."
Lin Sanqi jumped back to Gege Mansion and came to Dean Shen's home.
Wang Huiqin was chatting with her neighbors when she saw Lin Sanqi, the "rice delivery boy" coming, and greeted him with a smile:
"Xiao Lin, you are here to visit us."
"Yes, Aunt Wang, I have nothing to do anyway, walking around..." Lin Sanqi was not polite and hinted to Wang Huiqin to come into the house. (Don’t get me wrong, Wang Huiqin is older than Lin Sanqi’s biological mother.)
After entering the door, before Wang Huiqin could ask, Lin Sanqi threw an oil paper bag on the table and ran away in a hurry:
"Aunt Wang, I remembered something happened at home, so I'm leaving now!"
Wang Huiqin was puzzled, thinking that there must be something mysterious about this guy who came and left in a hurry, so he opened the oil paper bag and took a look, and his eyes dropped to the ground.
A large piece of fat appeared in front of me, at least 2 pounds...
2023
At 11 o'clock in the evening, Lin Bingqiao had finished her homework and took a shower. She was already sweating as soon as she came out of the bathroom. She hurriedly ran to the electric fan to cool down, and she still complained a little:
"Dad, why don't we turn on the air conditioner for a while at night? It's too hot today."
Lin Musen didn't have the mentality to pay attention to his daughter at this time. All he could think about was whether his son could successfully obtain wild ginseng, so he responded perfunctorily:
"Yeah, okay~~~"
Wang Wenjuan glanced at her daughter distressedly and comforted:
"It's too wasteful to have three air conditioners in our three rooms. Why don't you go and call your eldest brother? The four of us will sleep in one room and use one air conditioner to save some electricity bills."
"Okay, okay, as long as there is air conditioning, I'll call my brother."
"No need to call, I'm here," Lin Sanqi had already appeared in the living room on the first floor.
"Little sister, grandma, you can turn on the air conditioner if you want from now on. Not only do we need to turn on the air conditioner in the room, but we also need to install a large vertical 5-horsepower air conditioner in the main room to make the whole house cold."
Wang Wenjuan patted her son:
"There is no charge for electricity. There are air conditioners upstairs and downstairs. The electricity bill cannot exceed a thousand mosquitoes a month."
"Grandma, believe me, our family no longer has to save money, our family has money!!!"
Lin Sophora Lin understood it instantly after hearing it. Her eyes lit up and she looked at her son enthusiastically, as if asking with her eyes: Did you get the ginseng?
Lin Sanqi gestured with her chin and asked Dadou to go out and talk.
Lin Musen pretended to be calm and coughed:
"Okay, okay, it's very late. You two go to bed quickly. Today I will listen to Qizai. Ah Bing, you can also sleep in your own room and turn on the air conditioner. It will be as cold as you want."
Lin Bingqiao was certainly happy when she heard that she could enjoy an air conditioner alone in a room:
"Wow, daddy is the best~~~"
Wang Wenjuan was a little dissatisfied: "You, just pamper her, no matter what, I'm going to sleep too!"
Lin Sophora flavescens could no longer hear his wife's complaints and walked to his son's room in two steps. The air conditioner had been turned on and it was very cool in the room.
There were two wooden boxes on the desk. Lin Sanqi proudly claimed the credit:
"Ladou, these are two hundred-year-old ginseng, take a look."
Lin Musen decisively opened a wooden box, looked at the desk lamp carefully, and then he was amazed:
"Okay, okay, this is definitely top-quality wild ginseng. It seems that there are really good products in 1959."
Lin Sanqi boasted: "Dad, this one in your hand is only first-class. Nao, this one is special-class, and it's bigger."
Lin Musen opened the second wooden box and took a breath of air:
"The best, the best, an absolute tonic. Legend has it that ginseng can kill one's life, and only this kind of top-quality ginseng can be effective. This ginseng can already be used as a family heirloom. It's great, great!"

Lin Musen looked left and right for half an hour before he raised his head and said with emotion:
"It seems that our family is really going to prosper."
