"Ginseng? This is ginseng? I heard it's very valuable."
Liu slapped her thigh and laughed, and even Duan Zhuang, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh.
"Ruanruan, is this really ginseng?"
Su Ruanruan put down her basket. "Uncle, Aunt, this is indeed ginseng. I've seen it at Doctor Gu's in our village. It looks just like this. I heard that ginseng is extremely hard to find. It's really lucky that Sanzhu found it today."
Mrs. Liu stroked her son's head, her tenderness almost overflowing.
Sanzhu also looked delighted, proudly puffing out his little chest.
Su Ruanruan saw all of this and smiled faintly.
"I just don't know what this thing is worth."
“This ginseng is still young, and its roots are still quite intact. It should be worth at least fifteen taels of silver!” Su Ruanruan said.
"Ten...fifteen taels?"
Duan Zhuang, Liu Shi, and San Zhu stared wide-eyed.
My God, so many!
This was a huge sum of money for a poor family.
Xiao Xi obediently snuggled up to Su Ruanruan.
Liu's body trembled slightly with excitement, and Duan Zhuang quickly supported her.
In the countryside, it costs about five taels of silver to marry a wife. Because his family is poor and can't afford the dowry, Da Tie has been dragging his feet until he's half a grown man, and his marriage is still unsettled.
Now, with this ginseng, nothing is a problem.
"It's best to get rid of this ginseng as soon as possible, Uncle. It's still early. Why don't you make the trip? There are several herbal medicine shops in town, and I'm sure they all buy this little ginseng."
Duan Zhuang was stunned for a few moments before he came to his senses.
Yes, it would be better to exchange it for silver as soon as possible.
He immediately asked Liu to find a clean cloth, wrapped it up again and again, and then stuffed it into his clothes.
Su Ruanruan handed a note she had written in her room to Duan Zhuang, saying, "Uncle, when you go to town, could you please help me find a young man named Qin Bei at the furniture shop at the west end of town and give him this note?"
"Okay, I got it."
"Uncle, don't be impatient. If they see that you're eager to sell, they'll definitely try to lower the price. This ginseng can sell for at least thirteen taels of silver. Don't go below that, or you'll suffer a loss."
"Alright, I remember everything. I'll go find the oxcart now. You all just wait at home for my news."
"Take good care of your things," Liu reminded her again, still concerned.
This represents the entire fortune of the family.
