"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot there's something else, can you help me check it out?"
Chen Wang thought of the okra in the medicine basket he was carrying.
I was so focused on the bear bile that I forgot about this.
"OK!"
The female clerk nodded somewhat lostly and said in a muffled voice: "How old do you look? Why are you getting married so young?"
"Oh, I'm 22 this year. In the village over there, people get married quite young."
Chen Wang answered with a smile.
The female clerk's expression became more complicated when she heard this.
She is 24 years old this year and has not yet married. In this era, she is definitely one of the older leftover women.
But she was never in a hurry, thinking that she was good-looking and had a decent job at a state-owned purchasing station, so she was the only one who could pick on others.
Who would have thought that after all the hard work I'd find someone I like, not only is she younger than me, but she's also been married for two years.
"It's this one, take a look."
Chen Wang took off the medicine basket and handed it to her.
The female clerk took a look inside, a little surprised, and asked, "Octagonal lotus?"
"Yes, I just picked them in the mountains yesterday. Are you collecting them?"
"I collected it. This is also a good thing. Take it out and let me see it!"
These days there is not enough food to eat, and basically no one grows Chinese medicinal herbs.
Medicinal materials such as wild star anise lotus are very rare.
Chen Wang was not prepared to sell them all.
After all, he is a mountain herder, and he might be bitten by a snake at any time. Besides, this thing is also effective in treating other diseases, so he must keep two plants at home as a backup.
After the female clerk looked at several octagonal lotus plants one by one, she asked, "Are they all sold?"
"Sorry, I plan to keep two."
"Then take these three plants of good quality. I can offer them for 120."
"Okay, okay, I'll sell it!"
As a result, another 12 Great Unity cards were soon obtained, and Chen Wang stuffed them into his other pocket.
After putting the remaining two aster plants back into the medicine basket, Chen Wang said goodbye to the female clerk.
The female clerk looked at him with complicated eyes as he left, then she remembered that he hadn't even asked her name!
…
…
After walking out of the purchasing station, Chen Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
"elder brother!"
Across the road, the little kid standing next to the cart waved to him happily.
Beside her, Chen Jianjun and his son were also looking at him with smiles on their faces.
Chen Wang walked over quickly, looked around, and whispered, "Master, Brother Zhuang, there are too many people here, let's find a place with fewer people!"
The two of them understood and nodded excitedly.
Afterwards, Chen Jianjun pushed a cart loaded with bear meat, and the group of four walked towards the market.
Only when they reached a place with fewer people did Chen Wang take out a bundle of Great Unity notes from his pocket.
"Brother Zhuang, the total amount of bear gall and bear skin is 1,680. If we split it 50-50, it will be 840. This bundle will be 1,000. I'll count out 16 pieces, and the rest is yours."
As Chen Wang spoke, he counted out 16 Great Unity cards, drew them out, and handed over the rest.
The money is all brand new and tied together with rubber bands, which looks very visually impactful.
"You...you keep it first, and we'll settle the score after we sell the bear meat."
Chen Dazhuang didn't reach out to take it for a moment.
"We'll talk about the bear meat later. I'll hold it for you. Who will it belong to if it's lost? Keep it now!"
Chen Wang smiled and stuffed it directly into his hand.
Chen Dazhuang looked at his father nervously. He had never seen so much money in his life.
"Why are you looking at me? You are already a grown-up, and you still expect me to manage your money? It's just a little bit of money, why don't you learn from Awang and stay calm? Hurry and keep the money!"
Chen Jianjun scolded with a tone of disappointment, but in fact he was very happy in his heart.
Chen Dazhuang rolled his eyes, opened his coat, stuffed the money into the inside pocket, zipped up his coat, and gently patted the place where the money was.
Feeling the thick touch, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Brother, did you make a lot of money?"
The little girl took Chen Wang's hand and tilted her head upwards to ask curiously.
“I made some money, but it wasn’t a lot.”
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
Hearing this, Chen Jianjun and his son looked at him in surprise.
This is nearly a thousand dollars! Isn't it a lot of money?
You know, these days, people with an annual income of ten thousand yuan will be reported in the newspapers. This trip into the mountains earned them almost one-tenth of a ten thousand yuan household.
Even though Chen Jianjun was knowledgeable and experienced, he was actually very excited even though he spoke so much about his son.
What they don't know is that before Chen Wang came to this era, he worked like a slave for the capitalists and earned two or three thousand yuan a month, so naturally he wouldn't be that excited.
"Can we go to the supply and marketing cooperative later? Brother, you promised me last time that you would buy me White Rabbit candy."
The little girl reminded with expectant eyes.
Chen Wang looked down at the little guy and smiled, "The supply and marketing cooperative doesn't sell White Rabbit candy. You have to go to the city department store to have a look. Besides, you haven't finished eating the food at home yet. You can't be so greedy!"
"oh!"
The little girl pursed her lips in grievance.
"Don't worry, when we get to the city, there will be so many delicious foods, and you won't be left wanting. We'll be done very late today, so let's go to a restaurant and let you try some food there, and then we'll go back, okay?"
Chen Wang discussed with a gentle smile.
The little girl smiled again and nodded vigorously.
Soon, the group arrived at the market.
