If Chen Xuanxuan was here at this time, she would definitely give Gu Yanzhang a thumbs up and praise him, "What a talent. Young people are really promising..."
After Gu Yanzhang's sincere sales pitch, the doorman Huang actually took a small bag of expensive ginger from him.
The ginger was packed in a small linen bag. The ginger flavor was strong and had a salty aroma.
Of course, there was also sweet ginger.
The sweet ginger was more expensive. And the therapeutic effect was different.
Since the doorman Huang was also buying for the first time, Gu Yanzhang did not take his money.
He just said, "Brother Huang, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I have always acted according to my conscience. Moreover, you and I are distant relatives, so don't push the money for the medicine back and forth with me."
"I've already said that I won't take it. You must take the money back. If you really want to give it to me, then won't our relationship become estranged? We still have this soul-returning ginger! If your adopted son thinks this ginger is not enough, then you can ask me for it later..." When
Old Man Huang heard this, he felt very relieved.
He couldn't refuse, so he had to take the money back. His face was full of gratitude.
While he was grateful, he was particularly happy.
He knew very well in his heart that the things that came out of Gu Yanzhang were generally good things that could be sold at a high price.
For example, the Gu family's pickled cabbage and various types of pickled vegetables that he looked down upon at first.
At first, he really didn't expect that those sour pickled cabbage would become famous in the county within a few years after entering the county.
Every spring, summer, autumn and winter, people would come here to buy those pickled vegetables from Gu Yanzhang.
Those merchants from other places would buy hundreds of kilograms at a time. If you go too late, his pickled cabbage will be completely sold out.
And the buns sold by his family.
They are so delicious that people can't help but eat them.
Especially those old people who have lost a lot of teeth, they all like to eat those soft and fragrant buns that are either sweet or sour.
Even the fluffy and delicate steamed buns, these elderly people, ate with gusto.
Thinking of steamed buns, Old Man Huang, who now particularly likes to eat them, couldn't help but think of the few slices of sausage he had secretly eaten at his boss's place.
The sausages made by the Gu family were so delicious!
Whenever the county magistrate's house and his old boss's place made the dish of stir-fried sausages, almost everyone in the county knew about it immediately.
Because no one knew how the sausage was made.
When it was not fried, it was especially fragrant.
After stir-frying, it was even more fragrant.
Don't look at the people in the county, they seem to be a lot and seem to be very rich.
However, the rich people who can eat meat every two or three days are really very few.
Most of the county town people only eat such meat during festivals! !
Thinking about the sausages sold by the Gu family now, which are already sold at a sky-high price of one or two silver coins per pound. Old man Huang, who was more thoughtful, couldn't help but lower his head and began to look at the small burlap bag of medicine in his hand again and again.
According to Brother Gu's past behavior, he should not have lied.
This thing should really be a good medicine.
Moreover, it must be very expensive.
Thinking about what he just said, this red soul-resurrecting ginger is made through dozens of complicated processes. In a dry condition, it can be stored for three years... Old man Huang thanked Chen Xuanxuan again and again.
Finally, he personally welcomed Gu Yanzhang into the Huang Mansion.
After he brought people in, it was Captain Huang who entertained him.
When Captain Huang saw Gu Yanzhang, he smiled a lot.
When he saw the ginger that Gu Yanzhang handed over, he couldn't help but nodded.
"Little Gu, you are so thoughtful."
Gu Yanzhang bowed his head and said humbly, "Uncle Huang, you are the most respectable old man among our relatives. If we were not under your protection, how could we have such a good life now?" "
So, every time we have a good harvest and make more money, the people in the Chen and Gu families are grateful to you. We just hope that your health will be better. Only when you are healthy and blessed can we, the ordinary people, benefit from it." After saying this
with emotion, Gu Yanzhang told Captain Huang all the lies that Chen Xuanxuan said.
Moreover, he ate salted ginger and sweet ginger in front of him.
After showing that these processed ginger slices were not toxic at all, the suspicious Captain Huang dared to slowly taste these two kinds of ginger slices that looked completely different and tasted different under Gu Yanzhang's enthusiastic and sincere promotion.
Captain Huang was also knowledgeable.
After eating several mouthfuls of ginger slices in a row, he immediately tasted the different tastes.
He thought that if these things really had the effects he said, then they would undoubtedly be the best products for treating colds and fevers and relieving back pain! Thinking
of these good things, if they were presented to the county magistrate, the magistrate might be immediately delighted.
Captain Huang was a smart man.
Although he thought of the many benefits that could be obtained after the ginger was sent up. However, he is also a person who understands the doctrine of the mean very well.
When he gets along with others, he emphasizes win-win cooperation. Either he
eats meat and his subordinates drink soup.
Or he drinks soup himself and his superiors eat meat.
Since Captain Huang has a good sense of propriety in everything he does, he is deeply trusted by the county magistrate.
As for Gu Yanzhang, who has known him for many years, he also trusts him more.
After Gu Yanzhang had breakfast at Captain Huang's place, he carried his shoulder pole and slowly went to several famous pharmacies in the county.
When the doctor in the pharmacy saw the medicine brought by Gu Yanzhang, his eyes were full of surprise.
It can be said that they are also people who have lived to a ripe old age and have seen everything they should have seen.
However, they still felt that the two kinds of ginger slices in front of them were new and fresh.
"My friend, may I ask what's the secret of this ginger?"
After hearing this, Gu Yanzhang knew that these doctors were interested in medicines they had never seen before.
So, he replied slowly, "This ginger is made with the most traditional method."
"It has gone through dozens of procedures and is carefully prepared. Don't look at these two kinds of ginger slices as both are ginger. However, their medicinal uses are quite different..."
Relying on his ability to deceive people, Gu Yanzhang finally sold all the 30 kilograms of salted ginger and sweet ginger in the basket at a "sky-high price" of 500 coins per catty.
Gu Dazhu, Gu Erzhu, and even Gu Sanzhu had a clear concept of money long ago.
They knew in their hearts that money is really important to live in this world.
