Chapter 40 Wants to buy by force Yan Funing put down her backpack and opened a corner of the oil paper to show him.
The boy's eyes were bright, but he had a hint of disbelief.
"Where did you get such valuable medicinal materials?"
"Of course I picked it."
Yan Funing didn't like the tone of his question, as if she had stolen the Ganoderma lucidum.
Then he put the oil paper back on his back, stopped carrying the basket on his back, and just carried it.
The clerk looked at her again, and after a while, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go ask."
After a while, a man who looked like a doctor came over.
He glanced at the Ganoderma lucidum hidden under the oil paper, raised his hand and said, "Girl, please come this way."
Yan Funing followed him.
To the right from the inside of the medical hall is the pharmacy in the medical hall.
In the medicine shop, there are clerks cutting herbs, and there are also clerks taking medicine and weighing them.
The man stopped and held out five fingers.
Yan Funing said: "Five taels?"
The man shook his head: "Five hundred coins are one, two coins are one tael."
"My husband picked these two Ganoderma lucidum at great risk. At your price..." Yan Funing smiled, "It seems you are not sincere in accepting the medicinal materials."
But the man said: "We are the only medical clinic in the whole town, where can you sell it?"
At this moment, another man came over, led by the waiter just now.
Yan Funing recognized him as the doctor who had insisted on Tong Cheng paying the consultation fee before he was willing to look at Tong Ya's arm.
The doctor who was sitting in the hospital also recognized Yan Funing and said with a smile: "It turns out it's you, girl. Last time, my hospital lost a customer. I'm being polite by offering you five hundred cents a flower today."
"That's disturbing."
Yan Funing quickly picked up her backpack and walked out.
But unexpectedly, the doctor ordered the waiter to stop her.
Yan Funing smiled lightly: "Could this huge medical clinic want to force the purchase? My husband is outside. Since the price is not suitable, let's leave."
After saying that, he calmly walked around the waiter and walked out of the medical center calmly.
Only she knew it, and her heart was beating wildly.
After what she did today, she finally saw the true face of this medical clinic. She was clearly ripping off customers by referring to patients as guests.
To see a patient, the consultation fee alone is ridiculously cost of subsequent medicines and all sorts of other things may be even higher once the costs are listed.
There is only one medical clinic like this in the whole town, no wonder they charge unscrupulous prices.
When collecting medicinal materials, they tried their best to lower the prices.
A pheasant can be sold for [-] fen, but a good red Ganoderma lucidum can be sold for only [-] fen.
In the medical clinic, the man said to the doctor sitting in the hospital: "I have seen it, and the two Ganoderma lucidum flowers are of excellent quality. If we accept them and sell them again, the price can be doubled dozens of times."
Hearing this, the doctor in the hospital quickly walked to the door of the medical clinic and shouted at Yan Funing's back: "Girl, after passing our medical clinic, no one will accept your medicinal materials."
Yan Funing walked very fast. She came to town alone today. If people from the medical center came to snatch her Ganoderma lucidum...
Thinking of this, he walked even more hastily.
Should he go to the restaurant to take shelter, or should he go back to Li's oxcart?
Thinking like this, she accidentally bumped into a little girl.
Yan Funing quickly supported the little girl: "I'm sorry, did I hurt you?"
Although she was speaking to the little girl, she turned her head to observe the reaction at the medical center.
Unexpectedly, the little girl shouted sweetly: "Sister benefactor, I am Tong Ya."
Yan Funing then looked at the little girl and called happily: "Xiaoya." Tong Cheng, who was buying cakes for his daughter, turned around and found that her daughter was missing, and quickly looked around.
He turned around and saw the benefactor who had healed his daughter's arm, and walked over quickly.
"Girl, what a coincidence!" Tong Cheng smiled shyly, lowered his head and said to his daughter, "Did you call me sister?"
Tong Ya smiled sweetly: "Call me."
Yan Funing saw that the doctor sitting in the restaurant was staring at her, so she smiled at Tong Cheng and pointed to the back of a man in a crowded place.
The doctor saw them chatting and saw the young lady's husband not far away. He waved his sleeves and entered the hospital.
Seeing that people finally stopped staring at her, Yan Funing breathed a sigh of relief.
Tong Cheng seemed to notice something and asked in a low voice: "Girl, what happened?"
Yan Funing said softly: "I went to the medical center to sell Ganoderma lucidum, and the price they gave me was too low. They stopped me when I came out, probably trying to force me to buy it."
Tong Cheng spat: "That's a black-hearted medical clinic!"
"I'll go to another town tomorrow to have a look." Yan Funing reached out and touched the top of Tong Ya's hair, "Xiaoya, sister is going back."
The Ganoderma lucidum cannot be sold, and it is not safe to put it in a backpack. She must go home as soon as possible.
The clothes and items I want to buy will have to wait until next time.
At this time, Tong Cheng said: "I know a place that collects valuable medicinal materials such as ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum. The better the quality, the more they collect."
Tong Ya said: "I also know that there is a rich man living in that house."
Seeing that their father and mother's emotions didn't seem to be fake, Yan Funing asked: "Where?"
"Walk one mile down Dongshou Street, past my blacksmith shop, and more than a mile further, there is a high-walled house." Tong Cheng said, "The girl is my family's benefactor, I will send her there."
Tong Ya took her hand and said, "I'll send my sister there too."
Yan Funing looked towards Xishou Street. At this moment, the driver Li was sitting on the bullock cart waiting for the guests.
Seeing that his bullock cart was empty, she thought for a moment and said to Tong Cheng: "The driver is from the same village as me. I asked them to take us there. This will save time."
She had been to this town a few times and was familiar with it, but when she left the market, she felt that she was not familiar with the place.
Although she had helped Tong Ya heal her dislocated joint before, she still had to be careful this time when she rushed with their father and daughter.
It wasn't that she was overly vigilant, but that she had to be more careful after the scene at the medical clinic.
The driver Li was from the same village as her, and the Hu family had previously stopped the car, so this person was still trustworthy.
Tong Cheng saw her caution and did not reveal it. He smiled and said, "It would be great to have an ox cart ride."
The benefactor was beautiful, and men passing by would turn to look at her from time to time.
Furthermore, the medical center wanted to force her to buy Ganoderma lucidum. She had to be careful when carrying such a valuable medicinal material with her.
So the three of them walked towards Li's ox cart.
Li, the driver, saw her carrying the basket easily and said in surprise: "The girl didn't even put anything in her basket. Is she going back today?"
"Brother Li, I want to go to a house, which is two miles away from Dongshou Street. Can you drive us there? I can pay the fare in advance."
Yan Funing dug into her purse for coins.
Li, the driver, was embarrassed when she called "Brother Li", and his wheat-colored face turned red visibly.
"Let's talk about the fare. I'll take you there now that I'm free."
He said, beckoning them to get in the car.
When the three of them got into the car, Li, the driver, waved his whip.
The bullock cart passed through the market, exited Dongshou Street, and headed east.
Halfway through the journey, the driver Li asked Yan Funing: "Why did the girl go to a nearby village today?"
Yan Funing didn't hide anything from him, and said directly: "Brother Tong said that there is a house over there that collects medicinal materials, and I want to go and see it."
