"Hello, pay the bill." Seeing that Zhou Qiang had almost finished eating, Li Mu raised his hand and called the waiter.
The waiter at the front desk was delighted to see Li Mu's outstanding appearance and hurried over. When he saw Li Mu and Zhou Qiang's country-style outfits, he stopped unconsciously, looked at them with some disdain, and said to them with a proud face, "A total of 18 yuan."
Seeing the waiter like this, Li Mu frowned a little, took out some loose change from his pocket, counted out eighteen yuan and handed it to the waiter in front of him.
The waiter took it with two fingers with some disgust, took a quick look at it, turned around and prepared to leave.
As he left, he muttered quietly, "He looks pretty handsome. I wonder how long he has saved up money to come out and pretend to be so handsome."
When Li Mu heard the waiter say this, his eyes instantly turned cold, and he exuded the aura of a superior. He stopped the waiter and said, "Comrade, it's not appropriate for you to say this. Call your manager over."
Hearing what Li Mu said, the waiter blushed and said a little unnaturally: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to target you. I apologize to you."
"Don't talk so much, call your boss over." Li Mu chuckled and said in a cold voice.
The situation was about to get out of hand and the waiter wanted to apologize, but the manager, who was busy not far away, walked over quickly.
"Hello, what happened?" The manager approached hurriedly with a smile.
...
...
"This waiter looks down on me. I paid to eat, not to be bullied." Li Mu crossed his arms and said to the manager without any emotion.
Zhou Qiang, who was standing by, saw the argument and wanted to interrupt, but was stopped by Li Mu with a look.
When the manager heard what Li Mu said, he glared at the waiter beside him with some dissatisfaction and said, "Excuse me, now, I'll give you two bottles of Beibingyang to calm you down."
"No, I don't need your two bottles of Arctic Ocean. I just hope the manager can be more careful when hiring people, so that you don't end up not knowing why your restaurant's business is not doing well."
After saying that, Li Mu stood up and walked towards the door. Seeing Li Mu leaving, Zhou Qiang hurriedly followed behind him, constantly praising him, "Brother, you're awesome, you're really awesome."
Li Mu smiled and said nothing. He just wanted to make himself familiar to the manager and let him know that I am a reliable and easy-going person.
————————————————-
Li Mu and Zhou Qiang kept traveling back and forth in the county town. After asking people everywhere, they barely found a relatively large Chinese medicine shop.
"Hello, I want to ask, do you sell Lingzhi here?"
Li Mu looked at the dark room, frowned and asked hesitantly.
Hearing Li Mu's voice, the people in the room looked up and replied: "What's the matter, you want to sell Lingzhi? Bring it in and let me see it."
Li Mu led Zhou Qiang inside. It looked pitch dark outside the door, but there was still some sunlight shining into a small room next to the door.
"Here, take it out and let me see it." An old man with messy hair, wearing glasses and a Zhongshan suit spoke up.
Li Mu took the pine and ganoderma from Zhou Qiang's arms and walked towards the old man. When he got closer, Li Mu opened the cloth bag in his arms and showed it to the old man.
Seeing the pine and ganoderma in Li Mu's arms, the old man opened his eyes wide in surprise, but soon returned to his original indifferent look, pretending nothing happened and asked, "What price do you plan to sell it for?"
Li Mu raised five fingers and held them in front of the old man.
The old man snorted, "Five hundred?"
I thought to myself, "It seems this young man doesn't know much about goods. Five hundred is too little. I'll give him a thousand a little more later."
Li Mu smiled and said, "Five thousand."
"What?" The old man stared at Li Mu in shock. "Impossible, I can't take this thing for 5,000, at most 3,000, I'll take it."
The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Mu, feeling a little shocked. "This kid knows what he's talking about. His price is close to my selling price. It seems that I have seen through him."
Hearing what the old man said, Li Mu knew that the offer of 5,000 yuan was a bit of a stretch to sell it. He frowned and pretended to be afraid that he would not be able to sell it. He hesitated and said:
"Three thousand is too low, how about this, the lowest price is four thousand and five. If you want it, I will sell it to you. We can just consider it fate."
When Zhou Qiang saw Li Mu's offer, he looked at Li Mu with an expression that showed he didn't believe he could sell it, and kept looking at Li Mu. But when he heard the old man say three thousand, Zhou Qiang was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
The old man frowned and was silent for a while, thinking to himself: "This is really good stuff. If I miss it, I don't know how long it will take to find it again. I'll make less money. Maybe this young man can sell it to me next time."
He sighed and said helplessly, "Okay, 4,500 is 4,500. Remember to contact me next time you have goods."
Li Mu smiled and didn't take it too seriously. He readily made the deal with the old man.
After Li Mu actually got the money, Zhou Qiang finally came back to his senses from his shocked look, and he couldn't help but reach out to touch the stack of big unity notes. But when he saw Li Mu, he silently retracted his outstretched hand.
After giving the money, the old man looked at Li Mu and said, "Young man, my last name is Wang, Wang Fuguo. We can cooperate again if we have the chance in the future."
Li Mu nodded and immediately said modestly: "Boss Wang, can I call you Uncle Wang? If I find this kind of stuff in the future, I will definitely give it to you first."
When the old man heard what Li Mu said, he nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and let the two go.
When Li Mu walked out of the Chinese medicine shop, he turned around and took a deep look at the shop, thinking to himself: "This boss is good. I'm afraid other Chinese medicine shops can't offer this price today. This old man is quite smart."
Zhou Qiang lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking. He just followed Li Mu silently with his head lowered.
Li Mu counted the money in his hand, counted out five hundred from it, handed it to Zhou Qiang and said, "I'll return your money, and the rest is your errand fee. Tomorrow I'll take you to the mountain to dig, and I'll sell what you dig for you, and all the money will be yours."
Hearing what Li Mu said, Zhou Qiang's eyes sparkled and he was very grateful.
Seeing Zhou Qiang like this, Li Mu waved his hands. Not wanting Zhou Qiang to say anything that would make them cry, he walked forward alone.
The two men happily took the money and approached the supply and marketing cooperative in the county. The dazzling array of things inside made them dazzled. Li Mu looked at the supply and marketing cooperative, which was many times larger than the one in the town, and examined it carefully. There was everything in it, including clothes, pants, and shoes.
Li Mu carefully selected them, thinking: "Buy more nice clothes for my wife and daughter, and dress them up to look as pretty as the girls in the city."
