Chapter 42 The sweet ones are sweet potatoes!
The box was half open, revealing brown-green herbs.
There are two boxes in total.
Liu Xiuzhu raised his eyebrows: "Do you know what this is? This is Polygonum multiflorum, which costs ten taels per catty. I just met a wandering businessman. He collected a lot, and he reluctantly sold it to me for five taels per catty."< br>
After saying that, he laughed: "I will resell it later and make a small profit. Grandpa will know it later and won't know how to praise me."
Liu Xiuzhu looked at Xia Yuantong's unhappy expression and said in a cheerful voice: "Unlike some people, although they have a noble status, they have no business acumen at all. What should we do?"
Xia Yuantong stared at Liu Xiuzhu, with faint anger in his eyes.
Their grandfather Liu Jinduo was a world-famous wealthy businessman who was very good at making money.
But he only had two daughters. The eldest daughter found a son-in-law, and the second daughter entered the palace and became a concubine.
In order to train someone in his family to inherit his huge family business, Liu Jinduo set his sights on the two younger men, Xia Yuantong and Liu Xiuzhu.
This inevitably makes Liu Xiuzhu and Xia Yuantong compete with each other and compare with each other on weekdays.
This time, Liu Xiuzhu must have been looking around for goods that could be resold, hoping to get a reward from his grandfather Liu Jinduo.
Xia Baoer is here, and Xia Yuantong is too lazy to talk to him.
"Jiu Mei, let's go, don't talk nonsense to this idler."
When Xia Baoer was led by Xia Yuantong and walked past the box, she stared at it for a long time.
Suddenly, she said softly: "These are all fake, not Polygonum multiflorum."
Liu Xiuzhu and Xia Yuantong were both stunned.
Liu Xiuzhu looked at the three-year-old baby and sneered disdainfully: "You can tell the truth from the false? Have you weaned yourself?"
Xia Baoer answered honestly: "I'm not weaned, but this is fake and has nothing to do with Baoer's weaning."
She stretched out her little hand, took a piece, and showed it to Liu Xiuzhu under the sun.
"Uncle, the miracle doctor, said that don't buy diced Shouwu and don't buy hard Dictyophora root. This is because some people will take slices of other sweet potatoes and pass them off as inferior ones." She clasped her little hands behind her back and shook her head.
"Moreover, the book says that the medicinal smell of Polygonum multiflorum disappears after being sliced into slices, but this medicinal smell is very strong. It should be someone who deliberately brewed the medicinal juice in order not to be discovered."
Xia Yuantong asked in a daze: "What book, Jiumei?"
""Qihuang Benjing", Uncle Miracle Doctor asks Bao'er to copy it every day!"
Xia Baoer finally stood up on tiptoe and handed the piece of Polygonum multiflorum to Liu Xiuzhu: "Try it, what does it taste like?"
Liu Xiuzhu accidentally lowered his head and took a bite, frowning and feeling: "It's a bit sweet."
Xia Baoer nodded: "It's fake! Uncle Miracle Doctor said that whether Polygonum multiflorum is dug raw or dried, it tastes dry and astringent, but sweet, it's sweet potato!"
Liu Xiuzhu felt like he was struck by lightning.
He spent more than three hundred taels to buy two boxes of sweet potato chips? !
"This is impossible!" He shouted: "You stinky milk baby, what you say is false is false?"
There was a pharmacy nearby, and he immediately grabbed a handful and rushed in to ask.
Not long after, Liu Xiuzhu walked out with a gloomy face.
His servants hurriedly gathered around him: "Master! What's wrong? Is it true or false?"
Liu Xiuzhu suddenly yelled: "What are you waiting for? Go catch that wandering businessman, this damn liar!"
Xia Yuantong burst out laughing when the truth came out.
"Liu Xiuzhu, you can be regarded as a boat capsized in the gutter. You are not as powerful as my ninth sister who is still breastfeeding."
Xia Baoer's watery eyes blinked: "Brother Liu, my mother said that those who are impatient and greedy will suffer big losses!"
