"Don't worry, your brother is at Gu's house. We will never let him get lost. Go and do your business."

"By the way, September, what are you doing? Do you need help?"

Mrs. Gu was worried that Lin Jiuyue and her brother had just arrived in the capital and were not very familiar with the city. Moreover, Lin Jiuyue was a girl and had no one to support her. She was afraid that Lin Jiuyue would suffer a loss. That's why she asked a few more questions.

"Ma'am, it's just a few small things. No need for help."

"Is that so? If you need help in the future, just come to the Gu family. If we can help, the Gu family will definitely not stand idly by."

Mrs. Gu dared to say this to Lin Jiuyue because she thought that Lin Jiuyue and her brother were just ordinary people, and even if they caused trouble, it would not be a big deal.

If this happened to the young men and women in the capital, Mrs. Gu would not dare to make such a guarantee.

"Thank you, Madam. If I need any help in the future, I will definitely not hesitate to ask you."

After leaving Gu's house, Lin Jiuyue found a deserted alley, entered the space, and dressed herself up. When she came out again, the girl had transformed into a handsome young man holding a folding fan.

"No wonder those young men in ancient times loved to use folding fans. This thing is really a great tool for showing off your elegance."

Lin Jiuyue opened the folding fan in her hand and shook it in a pretentiously elegant manner. Then she walked towards the bustling street.

After asking around on the way and getting a general idea of ​​the pharmacies in the city, Lin Jiuyue headed towards the one he liked the most.

"Shopkeeper!"

Lin Jiuyue held a folding fan in his hand, waving it from time to time. He really looked like a young master from a wealthy family.

The shopkeeper heard the voice, looked up, and saw Lin Jiuyue dressed like that, and hurried out to greet her.

"Hey, young master, are you planning to buy some medicinal herbs?"

Lin Jiuyue looked around the pharmacy.

The pharmacy is quite large. One side is where you get your medicine, and the other side is where you see a doctor. There are quite a few people lined up at the door.

"Shopkeeper, I have some medicinal herbs and would like to ask if your pharmacy needs them."

When the shopkeeper heard this, his enthusiasm waned a little.

"Young Master, are you here to sell medicinal herbs?"

Lin Jiuyue nodded.

"Yes, I wonder if your pharmacy will accept medicinal materials?"

"I have to collect the medicinal herbs, but I need to see what kind of herbs you have."

The Nanyue Kingdom was vast and rich in resources, and there were many kinds of medicinal herbs. Some of these herbs were of little value, and the pharmacies had sufficient stocks. Therefore, many pharmacies did not want some of them.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiuyue shook her folding fan in a pretentious manner.

"Of course it's a good herb. If it were an ordinary herb, how could I possibly bring it here?"

After saying that, Lin Jiuyue took out the ginseng from his arms.

He said he took it out from his arms, but in fact he took it out from space.

When the owner of the drugstore saw Lin Jiuyue take out a ginseng from her arms, the corners of her mouth twitched.

Does this young man even know anything about medicinal herbs? This isn't a radish, it's ginseng! He's treating ginseng like a white radish, casually placing it in his arms.

Could this be another young man who knows nothing and comes out to play?

"Sir, you can't leave your ginseng like this. If the roots break, the price will be greatly reduced."

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

I don’t know anything else, but I know this.

"Don't worry, shopkeeper. Take a look at this young master's medicinal herbs. Are they still worthy of your approval?"

After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, she pulled over a chair and sat down.

The shopkeeper has been dealing with medicinal herbs for many years, and he knew at a glance that the ginseng Lin Jiuyue took out was of the best quality.

"Yes, it's pleasing to the eye, pleasing to the eye! How could it not be pleasing to the eye? Sir, I wonder how much silver you want for this ginseng?"

Lin Jiuyue sat calmly on the chair.

"Shopkeeper, you've been dealing with medicinal herbs for years. You should know how much this ginseng of mine is worth, right? How about this? Shopkeeper, you name a price, and I'll see if it's suitable?"

Before coming to the capital, the owner of the town's medicine shop had already told him that if he sold his ginseng in the city, it would definitely not be less than two hundred silver coins.

And this price is for the worst ginseng among all his ginsengs.

"Sir, how about I give you one hundred and fifty taels of silver for this ginseng?"

Lin Jiuyue frowned.

One hundred and fifty taels? If I hadn't known the price from Shopkeeper Bai long ago, I might have sold it.

"Shopkeeper, I sincerely want to sell this ginseng, but you're offering this price. It seems you don't really want to buy it. In that case, I'd better go to another shop and ask."

After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, she wanted to take her ginseng back from the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper originally thought that Lin Jiuyue was a useless fool who knew nothing, but he didn't expect that Lin Jiuyue actually knew something.

"Hey, sir, don't be in such a hurry to leave. This price isn't right, we can still negotiate. Come on, let's sit down and talk."

A smile appeared on Lin Jiuyue's lips.

"Wouldn't it be better if the shopkeeper had said so earlier?"

Seeing that Lin Jiuyue was not easy to deceive, the owner of the drugstore jokingly asked someone to make a pot of tea for Lin Jiuyue.

"Sir, your ginseng is indeed good. However, although we are a medicine shop, we have to make some money to open it for business, right? Otherwise, how can we support so many people?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"What the shopkeeper said makes sense, but you've earned too much money."

When it comes to making money, both the buyer and the seller should give up some profit, so that the business can last long, right?

"Hey, sir, since you haven't worked in our business, you probably don't know the profit margins. In fact, after deducting costs and other things, we don't make much money."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

This old man is so evil. Even at this time, he still wants to deceive me!

"Shopkeeper, although I don't know much about pharmacies, I do know that illness is the most expensive thing. If you say this doesn't make money, I'm afraid..."

Lin Jiuyue didn't finish her words, but her meaning was very clear.

Seeing a doctor and taking medicine are always highly profitable industries in any era. This shopkeeper actually told me that they don’t make money. Isn’t this deceiving me?

"Haha, sir, since you haven't worked in our field, you don't know our hardships..."

Lin Jiuyue didn't want to listen to the shopkeeper's nonsense, so she stood up and was about to leave.

The shopkeeper hurriedly grabbed Lin Jiuyue.

"Sir, Sir, we have something to discuss. Don't be in such a hurry to leave."

Seeing this, Lin Jiuyue stopped again.

"Shopkeeper, I won't waste any more time talking to you. Just tell me how much you can pay for my ginseng. This is business. If we can reach an agreement, we can negotiate. If not, we can still be friends."
