Chapter 65: An expert can tell whether it is true or not just by looking at it

Xinbao asked, "What is it?"

Brother Xiaoliu asked, "What do you mean by the yellow thing in the field?"

Xinbao said in a baby voice: "This is a famous medicine."

Xiaowu and Xiaoliu: "Oh!"

Then Brother Xiaowu continued to ask: "Why is it called the ground yellow, not the ground red, not the ground green, and not the ground black?"

Xinbao thought for a moment and said, "Because it is yellow!"

"Is it delicious?" Brother Xiaowu touched his stomach and said, "I'm hungry. Let's go into the city and buy the minced meat biscuits we had last time, shall we?"

Xinbao's mind immediately followed the same idea: "Xinbao wants to eat sesame balls, which are sweet and delicious!"

“Rabbit jerky is delicious too!”

The three of them were discussing heatedly, drooling.

The second brother who had been listening: "..."

Dumplings and the like are magical.

Smart, yet stupid.

He laughed and touched Tuanzi's soft little head.

They soon arrived at the county town. The three of them smelled the delicious food and ran straight to the bun shop. They couldn't stop them. But the second brother, who was the head of the family, didn't bring any money.

So Brother Tang, who had just finished packing up his stall and was about to go home, found that his own little baby suddenly appeared in front of him and stretched out his little hand: "Oh, Xinbao is hungry and wants to eat steamed buns."

Brother Tang: “……???”

When he looked up again, all his younger brothers had come. There was no time to ask more questions. Big Brother Tang quickly took out money to buy a few buns and let the younger ones fill their mouths first. Then he made room to ask his younger brothers what was going on.

In fact, at this moment, the second brother also realized that he had done something stupid in his haste, because Xinbao had said that he would only sell one and keep the other for use, but he brought them all.

He did bring the household registration book with him, as he was mainly worried that the land had been bought by someone else.

Brother Tang asked him, "Where's Dad?"

The second elder brother coughed, and was embarrassed to say that he had not discussed it with his father, so he said, "Why don't we sell the ginseng first?"

Brother Tang: “…”

They are all younger brothers, what can he do?

Even if he doesn't understand, he still has to show the bearing of an elder brother.

At this moment, the two ginsengs were still hidden in the grass. He reached into the basket, felt around several times, picked out the big one, and prepared to sell it.

Brother Tang also had some knowledge of the county town, so he chose the largest medicine shop, which was actually the shop where Tang Qingshan sold Tai Sui last time.

Brother Tang was quite steady. He went in and said directly, "Where is your boss? I want to sell something."

The drugstore saw more and more people coming to sell medicine, so the clerk smiled and asked, "What are you selling?"

"Ginseng," said Brother Tang, "very good ginseng."

The guy thought about it and asked the boss to come out.

The boss’s surname is Li. He is a very short and thin old man, and it is said that he is also a doctor.

Brother Tang and Boss Li exchanged greetings before taking the ginseng out of the basket. Boss Li ran a medicine shop, so he was an expert in his field. His eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly came over and reached out to grab a handful...

He was indeed very excited at first, and wanted to grab the ginseng, but when he touched it, he quickly slowed down and took it carefully.

He carefully examined the reed head, then looked at the reed bowl carefully, and checked the body, skin, stem, and patterns bit by bit... It took him more than a quarter of an hour to check.

Then he raised his head, looked at them calmly, and said with a smile: "Not bad, not bad, you dug very carefully, and the ginseng roots were not broken at all... I wonder how much silver you want to sell it for?"

Brother Tang smiled and said, "I've heard that Renxintang has been passed down for hundreds of years and is honest and trustworthy. Why don't you ask Boss Li to give us a price?"

Boss Li smiled and didn't refuse: "Alright, this ginseng is good quality and fresh. Although it's not very old, it's still pretty good... How about this, I'll round it up to sixty taels for you!"

Brother Tang frowned slightly.

But the second brother Tang said: "Brother, this is not right? Doctor Tang clearly said that this ginseng..." He looked as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

He doesn't know ginseng, but he knows how to judge people. If it was really ordinary, why would the boss be so excited just now? Boss Li's eyes flashed, shook his head and smiled, "Young man, don't listen to what others say. Do you know how to judge ginseng? Look at the reed bowl. This thing is like a tree, one bowl a year, count it yourself, isn't it only about thirty years? The price I gave is already very generous."

What he said sounded very much like that, and Brother Tang was slightly startled.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The next moment, a baby's voice said, "No, no, you are wrong!"

Boss Li was stunned and looked down.

The little girl was still chewing on the bun, with oil on her lips. She looked up and said seriously, "This ginseng is more than a hundred years old!"

Boss Li was secretly surprised, but smiled and said, "This baby is really pretty."

He immediately turned his gaze away, pretending not to bother with the child: "It's just this price anyway, what do you think?"

The second brother slightly lowered his eyelashes and then shook his head: "Boss Li, this is not very kind of you."

Boss Li said, "I run such a big store, how can I cheat you? Why don't you count them yourself!" He looked very frank.

The second brother smiled, even more calmly than him: "Xinbao, Boss Li is not sure, can you tell him about it?"

He picked up his sister.

Brother Tang took over and held it. Xinbao was used to seeing poor students and skilled in business, so he puffed out his belly and said in a teacher-like manner: "Only young ginseng has the reed bowl! The reed bowl plus three is the age of the young ginseng! But for ginseng that is several decades old, the reed bowl will gradually disappear. I will teach you a saying, 'The reed bowl is long and dense like a date kernel, and the skin is tight with fine lines and pearl whiskers'. You should memorize it well and don't do this in the future!"

Boss Li was stunned after hearing what he heard, and stared at her with a look of surprise and doubt.

This little girl couldn't even pronounce the words clearly, so of course he couldn't believe that she said it herself. But it was just a sentence, and an expert would know whether it was true or not as soon as she said it!

He pondered over this sentence in his mind: "The reeds are long and dense, with jujube-like stems, and the skin is tight and finely grained with pearl whiskers." The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the summary was perfect! There must be a master behind this dumpling! !

The second brother saw his expression and knew what was going on. He said gently, "Sorry to bother you, boss."

Brother Tang also understood, so he turned around with his sister in his arms. Boss Li came to his senses and said anxiously, "Wait! Wait! I saw it wrong, let's discuss it again!"

Brother Tang politely gave way: "Boss Li, it's possible that we can't tell for sure at the moment. Let's talk about it next time. We also want to ask a few more companies."

Boss Li's face turned red. He was too embarrassed to say anything and just watched them leave.

Tiehanhan and the twins at the back all had an expression that said, "I want to talk but I can't hold it back any longer." But they were stunned by a look from their eldest brother...

The second brother asked Xinbao: "Xinbao, our ginseng is very good, isn't it?"

"Of course!" Xinbao raised his chin: "What Xinbao and Didi dug are all top-quality with excellent shapes!"

The second brother patiently asked, "How much is that worth?"
