Chapter 17: Rural Wife in the 1990s 16



But this has nothing to do with Meng Changjin. There are more than one person living a miserable life in this world. If she were to take care of every Meng Changjin she saw, she would never be able to take care of them all in her lifetime.

Hearing the other party asking about ginseng as soon as he came in, Meng Changjin glanced at Li Xiaohua first.

Li Xiaohua quickly introduced: "This is the person I asked to look at the ginseng, Mr. Zhai."

Meng Changjin nodded, bent down, took out the ginseng wrapped in old cloth from the backpack on the side and handed it to Li Xiaohua.

Li Xiaohua took it with both hands, feeling heartbroken, and handed it to the middle-aged man named Zhai.

Meng Changjin started to enjoy breakfast with Da Niu and Er Niu.

That nonchalant attitude successfully made the corners of Li Xiaohua's mouth twitch slightly again.

Aren't they afraid that they will switch the things? Although they won't do that, Meng Changjin's unguarded behavior really makes people worry that she might be cheated at any time.

Meng Changjin, who was drinking soy milk, paused slightly and then continued drinking.

She naturally "saw" Li Xiaohua's indescribable expression. Although she was eating breakfast, she was watching him with her spiritual consciousness.

After all, she was going to make a small fortune from this ginseng, so how could she just ignore it? Mr. Zhai looked at the ginseng very seriously and even took out a magnifying glass.

Although he watched it carefully, the other party had finished watching it by the time Meng Changjin and her two mothers finished their breakfast about ten minutes later.

"Mr. Zhai, how is it?" Li Xiaohua asked hurriedly when he saw him stop.

"One hundred and six years old, not bad." Mr. Zhai turned to Meng Changjin and said, "This ginseng is of good age and it is wild ginseng. The market price is about 200,000 yuan. I will offer 220,000 yuan. Of course, you can also ask others, but there should be no higher price than mine."

"Mr. Zhai, I agreed to take you there." Li Xiaohua interrupted quickly.

"It's good enough that you have this intention. I'll buy it myself." Mr. Zhai patted Li Xiaohua on the shoulder and said.

Li Xiaohua paused and did not insist.

Meng Changjin squinted his eyes and looked at the two of them. From the way they spoke, it was obvious that Mr. Zhai had a higher social status than Li Xiaohua. It seemed that Li Xiaohua bought the ginseng just to give it to Mr. Zhai.

Meng Changjin didn't delve into the relationship between the two and nodded without bargaining.

In fact, her bottom line was one hundred thousand.

I didn’t expect it to more than double.

"make a deal."

After Meng Changjin nodded and agreed to sell it to Mr. Zhai, the other party also agreed.

There was a small problem during the transaction.

Two hundred and twenty thousand is not a small amount, which is twenty-two bundles if converted into cash.

Putting it in the backpack should be about half full.

But Meng Changjin didn't want to carry such a large sum of cash with him.

Mr. Zhai obviously thought so too, and he planned to make the transaction directly through bank transfer.

It turned out that Meng Changjin not only didn't have a bank card, but also didn't have a passbook.

Accompanied by Li Xiaohua, Meng Changjin went to the bank to open a passbook, and then transferred the money into the passbook.

The transaction was completed, and Mr. Zhai left with the ginseng.

After the ginseng was bought, the treatment was completely different. The container for the ginseng became an exquisite box, instead of just a random wrapping of old cloth like Meng Changjin did.

This is no longer Meng Changjin's business. The money and goods have been paid, and the ginseng is no longer her ginseng. How others deal with it is their business.

"Ms. Zheng, please leave me your contact information. If you need ginseng like this in the future, you can come to me." Li Xiaohua said after helping to handle the transaction between Meng Changjin and Mr. Zhai.

"If I dig it up again in the future, I will take it to the pharmacy." Meng Changjin looked at Li Xiaohua with a little surprise as he took out a titanium-white object from his pocket, which left a vague impression in the client's memory.

This seems to be something that can be used for long-distance communication, which is equivalent to the sound transmission jade in the world of monks.

To be honest, Meng Changjin really wants to make one.

But she didn't know if she had enough money.

Li Xiaohua followed the direction of Meng Changjin's sight and saw the pager in his hand. He picked it up and waved it gently in front of Meng Changjin: "Miss Zheng, would you like to buy a mobile phone and leave your phone number?"

"This thing is called a mobile phone, right? Where can I buy it? How much does it cost? Can I afford it?" Meng Changjin showed an interested expression and asked three questions in a row.

Li Xiaohua: …

It's quite suffocating.

Obviously, Miss Zheng doesn't look like someone from the countryside, but sometimes, she unexpectedly knows nothing.

But Li Xiaohua is quite patient.

This time, Meng Changjin's ginseng helped him successfully establish a relationship with Mr. Zhai, so Li Xiaohua was very grateful to Meng Changjin. It was just a small favor and it didn't take much effort at all.

Li Xiaohua talked to Meng Changjin about how to buy a mobile phone and how much it would cost. He reminded Meng Changjin to withdraw enough money, and then took Meng Changjin to a mobile phone store in the county town to buy a mobile phone.

The owner of the mobile phone store saw someone buying a mobile phone and explained it very seriously. Meng Changjin also learned very seriously. When he walked out of the mobile phone store, Meng Changjin still felt magical holding the small mobile phone.

The things in this world are really interesting. You don't need spiritual power to transmit sound over a thousand miles. The person who invented this thing must be a genius! Meng Changjin couldn't put down the small flip phone. After he and the pharmacy owner Li Xiaohua exchanged phone numbers, Meng Changjin took the eldest and second girls back home.

When he came, he had only a hundred yuan on him. When he left, he had more than two thousand yuan in cash and a passbook with more than 200,000 yuan in it.

Meng Changjin couldn't wait any longer. Hao Jianye had been in the hospital for three days and should have been discharged. He hoped that when he returned, Hao Jianye would be at home.

Then she quickly divorced and fulfilled the client's long-cherished wish, and she would use the rest of her time to understand this magical world.

The most important thing for Meng Changjin, a casual cultivator, to be able to practice to the point of flying a sword in the sky is that she loves to learn. Didn't she learn to make medicine through various channels? No matter where you are, you can't stop learning. Some things may not be used when you learn them, but you never know when they will be used.

This is called being prepared for a rainy day. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.

Meng Changjin had beautiful thoughts in his mind, but when he saw the bus, he remembered the fear of being dominated by motion sickness.

Even before I got on the bus, I started to feel dizzy.

Xiao Si looked at Meng Changjin's face, which looked as if his soul was about to leave his body. He swung his fish tail, and his eyes were full of gloating.
