Lin Jiuyue was quite satisfied with the price.
Twelve ginseng plants were sold for a total of 2,500 taels of silver. Adding in various other medicinal herbs, Lin Jiuyue made nearly 10,000 taels of silver on this trip.
Of course, ginseng also accounts for the majority, after all, there are only twelve plants. The other herbs, however, are much more numerous.
"Young Master, the total value of your medicinal herbs is nine thousand eight hundred and ninety-eight taels. I will round it up for you and give you nine thousand nine hundred taels."
The shopkeeper said with a smile while counting the banknotes,
Although I spent nine thousand nine hundred taels of silver, I got the thing!
These medicinal herbs, of such good quality, are not always available for purchase.
Anyway, this pharmacy usually needs to buy medicinal materials, so it doesn’t matter whose medicinal materials they buy.
"Thank you very much, boss."
The shopkeeper waved his hand.
"You're too polite, young master. We're doing business. You're happy when you sell something, and I'm happy when I buy something I need."
If you don't buy it yourself, someone else can sell it to you.
There are many pharmacies in the capital, but as a colleague in the same industry, I have also asked around and found that other pharmacies do not have so much high-quality ginseng.
Now that my pharmacy has so much high-quality ginseng, I can spread the news and it will bring a lot of business to my pharmacy. I will make money just for this.
Not to mention, you can make another profit after selling these ginseng!
Soon, the shopkeeper counted the banknotes and handed them to Lin Jiuyue.
"Sir, here are the banknotes you received from selling medicinal herbs. Please count them."
As early as when the shopkeeper was counting, Lin Jiuyue took a look at the banknotes. Now that the banknotes were in his hands, Lin Jiuyue counted them again.
It's not that I don't trust the shopkeeper, but when it comes to matters involving money, it's better to do it in person. Once we're out of each other's sight, it's hard to say.
"No problem. Logarithms."
The shopkeeper said with a smile.
"Since the quantity is correct, can we collect these herbs?"
Lin Jiuyue waved her hand.
"With the money handed over, the herbs are now the shopkeeper's."
After saying that, Lin Jiuyue stood up and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, young master."
Lin Jiuyue looked at the shopkeeper in confusion.
"Is there anything else, boss?"
The shopkeeper rubbed his hands, looking like a mercenary.
"Young Master, I shouldn't be asking about this, but I can't help but ask, where do you get these herbs? Will you come back to sell them in the future?"
Lin Jiuyue smiled.
"Shopkeeper, you buy the herbs, and I sell them. This is business! Why do you have to ask about the origin? However, I can tell you that these herbs come from a legitimate source, so there won't be any problems."
"As for whether he will come to sell medicinal herbs again in the future, that's hard to say."
After hearing Lin Jiuyue's words, the shopkeeper's smile froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
"Since you are not willing to disclose it, I will not ask. If you still want to sell medicinal herbs in the future, can you please give priority to our Jishi Pharmacy?"
After listening to this, Lin Jiuyue smiled.
"Shopkeeper, our current cooperation is quite pleasant. If I need to sell medicinal herbs in the future, I will naturally give priority to selling them to your pharmacy."
After receiving Lin Jiuyue's affirmative answer, the shopkeeper's signature smile appeared on his face again.
"Haha, young master is such a straightforward person. In that case, I'll wait for you to come and sell medicinal herbs next time."
Lin Jiuyue waved her hand and said something as she left.
"Sure, sure."
Carrying the huge amount of silver notes worth 9,900 taels, Lin Jiuyue left happily.
However, as she left, Lin Jiuyue was still cautious. She walked around the streets several times, confirmed that no one was following her, and quickly walked into a deserted alley. Then she entered the space again, changed her men's clothes into women's clothes, and changed the cart behind the carriage before leaving the space.
He drove the carriage slowly to the general's mansion, ready to pick up Lin Qiye and go back to the town together.
General's Mansion.
After Lin Jiuyue left, Mrs. Gu looked at the wooden box on the table and felt a little curious.
As soon as I opened the wooden box, I was stunned.
"Why did Jiu Yue send such an expensive gift?"
Mrs. Gu frowned.
This ginseng must be at least a hundred years old, right? It's not that the General's Mansion can't afford hundred-year-old ginseng, but it's hard to buy. There's a high price but no demand, and sometimes you can't even buy it if you want.
Didn't Jiu Yue say she was fleeing famine? Why did she give me a hundred-year-old ginseng right away? It's so valuable, I can't accept it.
"Pack up the ginseng, and wait for the girl to come over later, and let her take it back."
Madam Gu gave an order to the nanny behind her.
"Madam, this isn't a good idea, is it? Since Miss Lin was able to send this ginseng here, she probably didn't intend to take it back. If you let Miss Lin take it back, she would think too much."
Mrs. Gu frowned.
If I had known earlier, I would have checked the items first. Now that I have accepted them, it really doesn't make sense to return them.
"Madam, if you really think this gift is too valuable, how about giving Miss Lin something else in return?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Gu walked to her dressing table and took out all her jewelry.
After choosing for a long time, he finally stopped.
The nanny looked at the things that Madam Gu placed on the dressing table, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching.
I suggested that my wife send some other gifts in return, but I didn't ask her to send so many!
Moreover, the gifts selected by the lady are worth far more than the ginseng sent by Miss Lin.
"Madam, what are you doing? Are these things prepared for Miss Lin?"
Madam Gu turned around and glanced at the nanny.
"Yes, Mammy, do you think she would like these?"
Mammy: ...
Is this something Miss Lin will like? My wife is almost giving away all her jewelry! And she is still worried about whether Miss Lin will like it?
What girl doesn't like jewelry?
"Madam, all girls like jewelry. Besides, these things were selected by you personally. Miss Lin will definitely like them. Exactly..."
Mrs. Gu said with amusement when she saw that Madam had something to say but didn't dare to say it.
"You've been with me for so many years, why are you suddenly so slow? Just say what you want to say."
The nanny then smiled and spoke.
"Madam, I will speak frankly."
"The jewelry Madam has chosen is all top-notch, but a bit too much. I don't think Miss Lin is someone who would covet such a small amount of jewelry. Seeing so many pieces of jewelry, I don't think Miss Lin would want any of them."
