Chapter 269 Don’t disappoint her



Yun Huaying chatted with him for a while, and just as she was about to leave, he called her back, "Sister Ying, I know you're very capable. I'd like to ask if you can get some high-aged ginseng?"

"I have some ginseng in my hand. How old is it?"

When she heard she had it, she got very excited and asked, "Sister Ying, do you have any that are over fifty years old? A hundred years old would be best."

"To keep him alive or to make medicine?"

This kind of high-year ginseng generally has these two uses, Yun Huaying asked.

"Both."

The other person looked around warily and whispered to her, "Little Gui's grandfather suddenly fell ill and fainted. Fortunately, he was rescued in time and saved his life. We hired an old Chinese doctor to help treat him. He said he needed high-aged ginseng as a medicine. In addition, Little Gui's family has a high-ranking relative who is looking for high-aged ginseng to keep the elders alive. Ideally, it should be wild ginseng that is a hundred years old."

Yun Huaying understood. She had long guessed that the little ghost's identity was not simple. She didn't mind using two people to participate in Deep Friendship. When the market was opened up in the future, they could expand cooperation and get rich together.

"I have a ginseng root that's a hundred years old, and a few that are sixty or seventy years old. I can give him two of them. I'll go get them now. You go and tell him to meet in front of the Xinhua Bookstore in half an hour."

"Sister Ying, thank you so much."

The other party was so excited that he wanted to kneel down to thank her. "Sister Ying, I'll go back and tell him the good news and come find you later. As for the reward, let Xiao Gui discuss it with you directly."

Yun Huaying nodded, picked up the bamboo basket and left.

Lin Shan and Jiang Yuan had already sold all their pine mushrooms and were waiting for her at the door of the state-owned store. When they saw her approaching, they immediately went up to her and told her, "Huaying, we've sold all our pine mushrooms. This year's first crop of black pine mushrooms sold for eight cents a pound. Two baskets for a total of three yuan."

"That's the only price. It's only ten cents per pound on the black market."

Yun Huaying had just seen someone selling fir mushrooms on the black market and casually asked the price. Then she gave them the money she had earned from selling pickled vegetables and chili sauce, "It's the same price as last time, a total of six dollars."

Just as he handed the money to Lin Shan, Zhong Furong's voice came from behind: "Yun Zhiqing, are you sold out of the fir mushrooms?"

Yun Huaying hadn't heard the footsteps at all, and was startled by her voice. Jiang Yuan gave her a subtle look, and she understood immediately. She turned around with a natural expression, "Zhong Zhiqing, you're here too."

"Yes, I just came here to buy something, and I happened to see Lin and Jiang Zhiqing selling fir mushrooms."

Zhong Furong, holding a small cloth bag, glanced at her backpack and asked innocently, "Yun Zhiqing, did you go somewhere else to sell fir mushrooms?"

"No, I just went to give some pine mushrooms and pickles to a friend. I asked Lin Shan and the others to sell the extra pine mushrooms for me."

Yun Huaying would naturally not reveal the fact of going to the black market. Zhong Furong was not Liu Xiu. She had better be cautious when interacting with people from the Revolutionary Society.

"Yun Zhiqing, do you have any friends in the county town?" Zhong Furong had some guesses in her mind.

"Yes, I have."

Yun Huaying deliberately released the news. She was sure that Zhong Furong would investigate, and she didn't mind deliberately tricking them.

After he finished speaking, he deliberately wanted to confirm the matter and handed the bamboo basket to Lin Shan, "Lin Shan, Jiang Yuan, you two should go back first. I have something to do and will be back later."

"good."

Lin Shan took the basket and asked Zhong Furong, "Zhong Zhiqing, we are going back to the production team. Are you going with us?"

"I still have to go to the post office, you guys go back first." Zhong Furong smiled.

The three parties separated and went their separate ways.

Yun Huaying deliberately slowed down her pace, and only after Zhong Furong caught up with her did she speed up a little.

"Magic Vine, has the little ghost arrived?"

After receiving the "arrived" message, Yun Huaying assigned it another task: "Go and change the little ghost's face in advance. Change it into the appearance of my cousin Yunnan Xing. Don't let anyone notice."

The kid came over on a bicycle. When he saw her figure appear across the street, he immediately pedaled over and shouted from a distance: "Sister Ying."

Seeing his anxious expression, Yun Huaying guessed that his elder's condition must be very critical. When she saw his face transform into Yunnan Xing's in the blink of an eye, she was shocked, but she didn't show it on her face. She directly handed him the two ginseng roots she had prepared earlier, "The one tied with red rope is a hundred years old, and the one tied with hemp rope is seventy years old."

The little ghost opened the bag and took a look. He couldn't tell the age of the herbs, but he could smell the rich aroma of ginseng. He was deeply moved and said, "Sister Ying, thank you so much. You've helped our family a lot this time."

"Take it back and give it to your elders as medicine. If you use ginseng as medicine, it won't be very effective. Come back to me and I'll recommend a famous doctor to you."

Yun Huaying has not really practiced her medical skills since she came here, but she doesn't want to reveal her identity. If necessary, she will open a clinic under the name of Hua Yin.

"A famous hidden doctor?" The little ghost blinked and asked her, "Is he in Yang County?"

"exist."

Yun Huaying looked around cautiously and told him in a voice that both of them could hear: "A true master of traditional Chinese medicine wouldn't dare to show up so easily now."

The little ghost understood and thanked him excitedly: "Sister Ying, where should I find you then?"

"Hang a straw rope on the camphor tree next to the bicycle shed outside the black market. My people will come and inform me when they see it. I'll go find you at the black market later."

Xiao Gui felt that meeting at the black market would be time-consuming, so he simply told her his home address: "Sister Ying, just come to my house when the time comes. My house is at No. 12 Zhengping Street."

"good."

Yun Huaying responded, glancing at a hidden corner not far away, and whispered to him, "Kid, someone is following me. Take the ginseng and leave quickly. We'll settle the money later."

The little ghost's expression was stern: "Sister Ying, do you want me to help you deal with your tail?"

"No need, I can handle this kind of petty thief. If I encounter big trouble in the future, I will ask you, my friend with a powerful family background, for help." Yun Huaying smiled.

Being recognized by her, the little ghost was quite happy and said with a smile: "Okay, if you have any problems in the future, just come to me. I recognize you as my sister."

"Go back quickly." Yun Huaying patted his shoulder.

The little ghost had no idea that he was talking to a stranger with a strange face. He stuffed the ginseng into the inside pocket of his coat, winked at Yun Huaying, then kicked off with his feet and rushed into the alley next to him with nimble movements.

After he walked away, Yun Huaying slowly left. She glanced at the corner again and found that the person who was following her was gone.

After walking for a few minutes, the Xiantian Demon Vine sent her a message, "The little ghost got rid of the person. Zhong Furong didn't continue to chase him and went towards the direction of the Revolutionary Committee's family quarters."

"Keep staring at her."

She just deliberately transformed the little ghost into the appearance of her cousin in order to create the illusion that the Yun family was hiding in Yang County. She hoped that Zhong Furong would not disappoint her next.
