C17

Dragon Spring Town was a street. On the left and right side of the street, there were shops that sold rice grains and oil. Normally, people could buy things here if they wanted.

There was a teahouse in the town, and when it was time for the market, people who liked to join in the fun would come to the teahouse to listen to little songs and chatter.

It could be said that the teahouse was a mix of different types of people. Chefs, matchmakers, job seekers, all kinds of people were there.

From Lotus Village to town, they had to pass through the teahouse.

Today was a market day. Although it was still early, only around 7 in the morning, there were already many people coming to the teahouse.

The waiter of the tavern was busy pouring tea and shouting non-stop.

"This teahouse's business is really good."

A cup of tea cost one gold coin to eat for half a day.

Bai Xiao thought about it for a moment. There were at least seventy to eighty people here, then that would be seventy to eighty gold coins.

The total sum of money was at least 150 to 160 gold coins per day.

"Business is only so good when there's a fair market. Other times, teahouse business is rather quiet."

"Yo, isn't that the three Yang Family boys? What good stuff did you bring today? "

A middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears, who wore a long, thin, cotton-padded jacket, walked over.

"Master Li, yesterday I got lucky and hunted a wild boar. Master Li, do you want to buy some?"

Master Li's gaze fell on Bai Xiao's body, her eyes lighting up.

Bai Xiao who wore a mask, just looking at her figure, was definitely the perfect figure for a young lady, even if she was covered up by a coarse hemp garment.

"Yang Family Three Kid, this is?"

Yang Dingchu saw that Master Li's gaze was fixated on Bai Xiao. If it wasn't for the fact that he was afraid of bringing trouble upon himself, he would have thrown him out long ago.

His body blocked Master Li's gaze. "It's my wife. This is the first time I've been out of the house and I feel a little scared. Master Li must be embarrassed."

"Oh? When did you get married? You haven't heard of it? "

"Some time ago. Master Li, do you want this meat or not? "

"How should I reject it? "However, since you still have so many goods here, why don't you stay here and watch and have your daughter-in-law deliver them to my house?"

Yang Dingchu's face sank, "I'm not selling my meat."

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Buying your meat is giving you face, but you actually dared to throw my face? "

Bai Xiao did not expect Yang Dingchu to have such an attitude, "Brother Chu, I'll be watching over here, go send them to Master Li."

"There are too many people here. I can't be at ease with you alone."

Yang Dingchu looked at Bai Xiao, if he knew earlier, he would have stopped her from wearing the mask. Although he would be ridiculed by others, at the very least, no one would covet her.

Bai Xiao took out a dagger and shook it: "What's there to be worried about? Even I am not afraid of wild boars, how can I be afraid of people? "

Thinking about how she treated the wild boar so viciously, Yang Dingchu felt relieved.

However, Master Li did not agree, "I will let this little daughter-in-law deliver meat to me today."

"You want me to give you meat?" Bai Xiao raised her eyebrows.

"You can, but I wonder what your wife will see?" "I don't really care. I left right after the meat was delivered, so you're in trouble."

Hearing Bai Xiao's words, Master Li thought of the female tiger at home, and her aura became weaker.

"Then, then let the three Yang Family boys deliver me some meat."

"Alright, how much do you want? "Half a fan?" Bai Xiao changed from the way she used to threaten to look and laughed.

"Alright, half a fan."

Wild boars were more expensive than domestic pigs, but naturally, the price of a wild boar was not as expensive as domestic pigs. However, Master Li, who was bewitched by the beauty, not only asked for half a plate of pork, he even asked for the price of a domestic pig.

A catty of meat was worth thirty-five cents, while the meat of a wild boar was worth thirty cents, so he bought an extra fifty cents per catty.

Half a pig weighed two hundred catties, which was seven thousand gold coins, which was equal to seven taels of silver.

Master Li straightforwardly gave the money and asked Yang Dingchu to send it to the Li Residence.

While he stood by Bai Xiao's side, unwilling to leave, his eyes glued to Bai Xiao's body without moving away.

Yang Dingchu was afraid that his wife would be bullied, hence he quickly left the Li Residence.

When the others in the teahouse saw the commotion, they also came to join in the commotion. Other than the wild boar, there were also wild chickens and wild rabbits.

With the help of Master Li, Bai Xiao sold off all four wild chickens and five wild rabbits, while the rest of the pigs were sold off as well.

Just then, an elderly took an herb Bai Xiao had placed on the other side of the unicycle and asked: "Madam, I wonder how much this herb of yours is sold for?"

Bai Xiao looked at the old man who asked, he had fair hair and a goatee, he looked like an old scholar, and seemed very benevolent.

"Master, please state your price, this is my first time coming here to sell herbs, I don't know what its price is."

Master Li interrupted, "My wife, you have medicinal herbs? Let me introduce you to a family. I'll definitely give you the highest price. "

"Thank you for your kind intentions Lord Li. It's just that in business, the first come first served, and the highest price is fine."

Doing business was not just for profit, but also for power.

Furthermore, someone who could become friends with Master Li was definitely not a good person.

"Young daughter-in-law, isn't this business only about profit? It's very logical to sell it to whoever offers the highest price. "

Bai Xiao laughed and said, "But I'm not a person who plays by logic."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the old man without even looking at Master Li's angered face.

"I have quite a few medicinal ingredients here. May I know what old mister needs?"

The herbs that Bai Xiao had picked this time were mainly for the treatment of inflammation, analgesia, hemostasis and cold. After all, the other herbs in this place were useless.

Those who were seriously ill had either gone to the county or were waiting at home. The town doctors would only catch cold and stop the bleeding.

"It just so happens that I need all of Madam's medicine. I wonder how many of these are in her possession?"

"All the medicine I collected is here. If mister still wants more, I can go back and gather more."

Even a few herbs together would only be a big sack.

The old man looked at it and said, "Madam, the quality of this herb is quite good, and the method of preparation is quite good. Does Madam know the quality of this herb?"

"When I was young, I read some books in my parents' house. I know a little about them."

"I wonder if this old man knows anything. These herbs are not ordinary herbs, they must have come from the Yunshen Mountain." The old man's unfathomable gaze landed on Bai Xiao.

Bai Xiao smiled slightly, "As expected of the old sir's sharp eyes, I have seen through everything."

The old man suddenly discovered that there were several ginseng roots under the herbs, "Little madam can actually gather such a good ginseng. Not bad, not bad."

"I was just lucky. Since old mister likes it, then I guess you should sell these to old mister."

"Alright."

The old man had his follower store the herbs while he found a jade box to store the lowest aged ginseng.

"We'll calculate according to the price of ten gold coins per catty. Each of these eight ginseng leaves will cost three taels of silver."

"You don't need that much, do you?"

She did some calculations based on the standards of this era's consumption. Even if her herbs were picked from Yunshen Mountain, it would not even cost 10 gold coins per catty. It would be great if she could at most give 5 to 6 gold coins.
