After collecting the silver, Lin Jiuyue and her brother picked up their bags and prepared to leave.
"Girl, wait."
Lin Jiuyue, who had just taken two steps, looked back at Manager Bai.
"Boss, is there anything else?"
Shopkeeper Bai turned around and took out a few wooden boxes from behind.
"Girl, your ginseng is a good thing. You should preserve it well."
After saying that, Shopkeeper Bai patted the wooden box on the counter.
"The girl sold the ginseng cheaply to Mr. Bai. Mr. Bai can't help her with anything else, so he gave her a few boxes."
After listening to this, Lin Jiuyue smiled awkwardly.
I guess there’s no one else except me who would just throw the ginseng into the bag?
However, I have plenty of ginseng, so I don’t feel bad if it gets damaged.
"Thank you very much, Shopkeeper Bai."
Lin Jiuyue didn't hesitate to pick up the wooden box given by Manager Bai and packed the ginseng.
"Well, now it looks like that."
Although Shopkeeper Bai couldn't afford to buy Lin Jiuyue's ginseng, he felt very distressed when he saw Lin Jiuyue "wasting" this high-quality ginseng.
Lin Jiuyue smiled gratefully at Shopkeeper Bai before stepping out of the pharmacy.
"Sister, are we going to the capital to sell ginseng next?"
Lin Qiye looked at the two extra wooden boxes in his arms and asked.
"Go, why not? Isn't there a saying that goes, 'If you have money and don't make it, you're a bastard!' The opportunity to make money is right before our eyes, we can't waste it."
The house was taken care of by the professionals hired by Gu Chengyan, so Lin Jiuyue was of no use at all.
Besides, I know nothing about building a house. I feel like I'm blocking other people's business just by standing there. It would be better for me to find a way to make more money.
Lin Qiye touched his chin.
"Sister, how much ginseng is left in the space? How about we sell it all?"
If all the ginseng were sold, it would probably fetch a lot of silver. Lin Qiye seemed to see a lot of silver waving to him at this moment.
"Okay, but we can't just go like this now."
If someone suddenly appears and sells so much ginseng at once, it will definitely attract other people's attention.
Lin Jiuyue is not afraid of trouble, but she doesn't want trouble either.
"Let's go back to the village first and explain the matter before leaving."
After returning to the village, Lin Jiuyue explained his plans to go out to the leader of the house construction team. Then he took Lin Qiye to the capital.
Apart from the time they came to the capital a few days ago to escape famine, this was the first time that Lin Jiuyue and her brother entered the city.
"Qi Ye, we were able to settle down so quickly after arriving in the capital, and this was not possible without the help of the Gu family. Let's go to the Gu family first."
When she first arrived, the ginseng in the space had not been dug out by Bubble yet, so Lin Jiuyue went to the Gu family empty-handed.
Now that I have started selling ginseng, I cannot leave out the Gu family.
Lin Qiye had no objection to this matter.
"Okay, I'll go see Brother Gu."
At the gate of the Gu family, the two gatekeepers were still the same, so Lin Jiuyue and her brother entered the gate of the Gu family without any hindrance.
Lin Jiuyue went to see Mrs. Gu. Although Lin Qiye was still a "child", in this era, families with a certain status all followed the rule of "boys and girls under seven years old should not sit at the same table". Therefore, Lin Qiye consciously went to find Gu Chengyan.
One of the siblings went to find Gu Chengyan, and the other went to visit Mrs. Gu.
In the living room.
When Mrs. Gu saw Lin Jiuyue coming, she happily pulled Lin Jiuyue to sit down.
"Jiuyue girl, you've been in the capital for several days now. You said you'd come to my house in a couple of days, but I've been waiting for you for several days."
Lin Jiuyue smiled.
"Madam, I have just arrived in the capital and have a lot of things to do. I have not come to visit you yet. I hope you can forgive me."
Mrs. Gu smiled and waved her hand.
"What are you talking about? You are always so polite, girl. Come on, sit down and talk."
Lin Jiuyue smiled and placed the ginseng she brought on the table before sitting down.
"Madam, I was in a hurry last time and didn't bring any gifts. This is a small token of my appreciation from September. I hope you don't mind."
Lin Jiuyue pushed the wooden box on the table.
The owner of the drugstore gave her two wooden boxes in total. She had used one and there was one left. Lin Jiuyue planned to use it as a gift next time.
Mrs. Gu looked at the wooden box on the table. The wooden box was closed, and Mrs. Gu did not open it to look at it.
"Girl, it's enough for you to just show up. Why bring any gifts?"
"Mrs. Gu, please accept it. How can you come here empty-handed? If you don't accept it, Jiuyue won't dare to come here again next time."
Lin Jiuyue said in a pretended angry tone.
The first time I came, I had just arrived to escape famine, so it was understandable that I didn't bring any gifts. But if I came empty-handed the second time, it would be really ignorant.
"Okay, okay, then I won't be polite with you. I'll accept this gift."
Mrs. Gu smiled and asked the servant to put the wooden box away. She then spoke to Lin Jiuyue for a while.
Upon learning that Lin Jiuyue had other things to do, Mrs. Gu did not try to keep her.
"Since Jiuyue has other things to do, I won't keep you any longer. Once your house is built, I'll have to go over and take a look."
Lin Jiuyue smiled and nodded.
"When the house is built, I will invite you to stay there for a while. However, the houses in our village are far inferior to yours."
The Gu family’s house is very big, but the family is small, so many rooms are unoccupied.
Fortunately, it happened in ancient times. If it happened in modern times, hiring a nanny or a part-time worker would cost a lot of money every month.
In this era, you only need to spend some money to buy some servants, and the rest is to spend some money on the servants' food, clothing, housing and transportation. Compared with modern times, it is much more cost-effective.
Although Lin Jiuyue is a modern person, after coming here, he also abandoned the concept of "equality for all".
The people here have been slaves for generations. If I brazenly tell them that everyone is equal, I will become the target of public criticism within a month.
In that case, why don't you adapt to the local customs?
"The countryside has its advantages. After staying in this big house for a long time, it's not bad to stay in the countryside for a while."
The Gu family is a simple family. He and the child's father grew up together. They have loved each other for many years after getting married, and there has never been any mess in the house.
Mrs. Gu was very satisfied with these.
"Okay, since Madam doesn't mind, I'll come and invite Madam in September after the house is built."
Mrs. Gu agreed with a smile.
"Madam, I have something else to do, so I'll go take care of it first. As for my brother, please tell him to come pick him up after I'm done."
