The people setting up stalls all knew that this fair was a collaboration with the Northwest Military Region. When they saw Gu Jianing, who looked relatively unfamiliar and was wearing a military coat, they immediately realized that she was a new military wife and were very enthusiastic towards her. Also, when they saw Gu Jianing's pretty face, they realized that everyone likes beautiful things, so they had a very good first impression of Gu Jianing.
"Little girl, I have radishes, cabbages, and tomatoes, all picked from my own fields today. What do you want?"
Gu Jianing saw that the most people were selling vegetables. When he walked to a stall, he saw an elderly couple selling vegetables. When they saw Gu Jianing coming over, they hurriedly greeted them.
"How do you sell these?"
After asking about the prices, Gu Jianing sold a lot of each item, which can be kept longer in winter.
After that, Gu Jianing continued to shop and bought a few bags of dried mushrooms, vermicelli, and a bag of potatoes. He saw someone selling tofu and bought several pieces of tofu...
It seems that Gu Jianing buys a lot and doesn't bargain much, so he must be a big customer.
When Gu Jianing walked by, many farmers setting up stalls enthusiastically invited her to buy.
Gu Jianing did see a lot of things he wanted to buy, but he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to take them all back by himself.
"It's okay. We have someone from the market who will bring a cart. They will help deliver the goods to the military area for just one dime." When Gu Jianing was mumbling about her worries, someone immediately told her the solution and showed it to her.
Gu Jianing did see a lot of carts gathered together. At first she thought they were selling carts, but she didn't expect them to be used to transport goods.
Then she can buy it with confidence.
Seeing the freshly jumping fish in front of the fish stall, Gu Jianing did not hesitate and caught several big black fish to buy!
When she saw someone selling chickens and ducks, she bought two chickens directly. As for the chicks, she didn’t buy them because she didn’t know how to raise them and didn’t plan to.
When I saw piles of potatoes, I bought half a bag.
There is even a pork stall. Hmm, they sell pork belly, spare ribs, lean meat, everything!
Gu Jianing also saw people selling wild Cordyceps sinensis at very cheap prices.
This is the Cordyceps that is sold at a very high price in later generations, but this northwestern region seems to specialize in Cordyceps.
Gu Jianing did not hesitate and bought them all, keeping some for himself and sending some to her mother's family and Grandpa Sang and Grandma Sang.
The people selling Cordyceps were a brother and sister who were only about ten years old. They dug the Cordyceps from the mountains and tried to sell it, hoping to exchange it for some rice and flour.
But before that, no one was willing to buy it, even to take a look at it.
They didn't expect that a fairy sister would come and buy everything for them. They were extremely happy.
After walking around the entire market, Gu Jianing's purchases had filled up an entire cart.
"Sister, I have other herbs at home. Do you want some?" Seeing that Gu Jianing really liked those Cordyceps, the little boy Qin Tian plucked up the courage to ask.
The brother and sister are from a nearby mountain village. Currently, they have only an elderly woman at home who is not in good health to rely on. The young and the old in the family are unable to go out to work. Fortunately, the grandmother once taught them a lot of knowledge about herbal medicine.
Therefore, they would go to the mountains from time to time to look for herbs, and then sell them in the county hospital. However, the price was kept very low, and it took at least four hours to get there. The journey was too far, and when the weather was cold, the road was cold and snowy, making it unbearable.
Therefore, what the siblings like most is the big market held on the 10th of every month. The market is close to their village, and as long as they can sell their products, the prices are relatively affordable and not pushed down too low.
As long as the herbs are sold, they can buy rice and noodles for the family. Grandma has been sick recently, so it’s best for her to eat fine grains.
Moreover, they have a wish that they haven't told others, which is to save money to go to school.
"Yes..." Gu Jianing named some herbs, "If you have any of these herbs, please sell them to me. I also want this Cordyceps."
As soon as Gu Jianing finished speaking, Qin Tian and Qin Qing's eyes lit up. "Sister, I have the herbs you mentioned at home right now. Can you wait for me? Can we go back and get them now?"
Qin Tian rubbed his gloved hands together, the gloves were torn, revealing a few fingers, and pursed his lips together, looking at Gu Jianing cautiously. Qin Qing did the same, her eyes full of expectation, as if Gu Jianing was all their hope.
Gu Jianing liked children, and when he looked at the siblings, he knew that their family conditions were probably not very good.
"Okay, I don't plan to leave the market for the time being, so you guys go back and get them. I'll wait for you here. I want all those herbs you have," Gu Jianing said generously.
The brother and sister's eyes lit up instantly, "Thank you, Fairy Sister, then we'll go back and get it."
After saying that, the brother and sister ran like a gust of wind and rushed in a certain direction.
Gu Jianing looked at their backs and his expression softened.
The reason why he agreed was, firstly, that he wanted to help the siblings, and secondly, that Gu Jianing really needed these herbs.
Soldiers often have to go on missions and receive training in places with harsh environments. These days, medical care is backward and medical supplies are scarce. Therefore, it is common for soldiers to suffer from stomach problems, back pain, leg pain, and other spinal diseases, and rheumatism.
Even Sheng Zexi would do that.
Sheng Zexi hadn't told her about it, but he had scanned it when he had tied him up as a patient.
Then she asked, and Sheng Zexi said that it was not just him, but basically all soldiers had this problem.
After listening to this, Gu Jianing fell into deep thought.
These problems may be tolerable when you are young, but they will become painful when you are old.
Therefore, Gu Jianing went to the system's redemption mall and used 10 points each to redeem the formula for rheumatism ointment and the formula for stomach-protecting pills.
These two recipes are the ones sold in the mall, require the highest points, and have the best effects. According to the introduction, they were developed 100 years ago.
Of course, there are other options with lower points, but the effects are not as good, so Gu Jianing finally chose these two.
Now Sheng Zexi is her husband, and she needs to take care of her own husband, so she still has to prepare the rheumatism ointment and stomach-protecting pills.
This is the integral...
Seeing that there were only 4 points left, Gu Jianing wanted his sister-in-law to get pregnant quickly and also wanted to cure Sheng Zexi's infertility quickly so that he could get 300 points.
Points are a good thing, one less if you use one.
The herbal medicine she just mentioned is what is needed to make rheumatism ointment and stomach-protecting pills.
She was originally worried about how to get the herbs, but unexpectedly she met this brother and sister, and it was just the right thing for both of them to get what they needed, thus killing two birds with one stone.
