Chapter 76 Making money

Xiaoliu, a middle-aged man with a somewhat stout appearance, heard the sound and walked in with a sharp scimitar. He carried the sack to the well in the corner of the yard and started to take out the snake gallbladder.

Half an hour later, Cornus officinalis and Mutong calculated the prices of all the medicinal materials and brought the money to Gu Dashan: "There are four taels and six hundred and thirty big coins in total. Count them."

Gu Dashan took the money with trembling hands and couldn't believe it: "This, so much?" It's almost five taels of silver, which is the price of one acre of high-quality land.

Third Grandpa also felt that the money was too much. Although Xiaoyu found many kinds of medicinal materials, the quantity was small, adding up to less than thirty kilograms. Many of them were very common medicinal materials and were not valuable.

Wood Passage: "Master made the decision for the three living bloated-necked snakes and gave them one or two and a half silver coins. The dried snake gallbladders and centipedes are also worth a lot of money."

Without the three living snakes, there would not be so much money.

Gu Jinli asked Mutong: "Uncle Mutong, what is the specific price of the forty-three snakes?"

She caught those live snakes with Qin Sanlang, Luo Huiniang, and Tian Xiaohua. The money from the sales had to be divided equally. She had to find out the price and tell them when she went back.

Mutong told her the price.

In addition to the three swollen-necked snakes, a red snake was also sold for 300 cash. The highest price of the others was 100 cash, and the cheapest one was only sold for 8 cash. The price difference is huge. The price mainly depends on the rarity of the snake. Their forty-three snakes were sold for a total of two to eight hundred yuan.

After Mutong told her the price of the snake, he also told her the price of the herbs.

The dried medicinal materials she sold weighed twenty-eight kilograms and one tael, and sold for a total of one to two, eight hundred and thirty cents. The prices of various medicinal materials were uneven, but on average, each catty cost sixty-five cents, which was quite a lot. Not bad.

After Gu Jinli finished talking to Mu Tong, Gu Dashan returned the money he got from selling the medicinal materials to her: "Brother Qin and his friends share in the money. It's not good to put it with the money at home. You can keep it yourself."

Gu Jinli took the money with a smile and promised, "Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely hide the money and prevent thieves from stealing it."

She took the money and ran to the front shop to buy herbs to dispel cold and dampness.

Dr. Du finally met people from his hometown, and his nostalgia is strong, so he doesn't want to separate from them too early.

The third grandpa naturally said yes.

None of the families had any clothing to keep out the cold, and they were wearing straw sandals. Their feet were purple from the cold, so they had to go to the cloth shop first to buy some fabric and cotton to make shoes, cotton-padded clothes and quilts.

Buzhuang is not far from the drug store, on the same main street, and can be reached in half an hour's walk.

Now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, the cloth shop is full of people coming to buy things. They come in small groups and it is very lively.

But after seeing them, many people stepped aside and whispered: "Hey, look at this, they must be the victims of the disaster in Qingfu Town."

No, look at them, they are so thin that they are out of shape, and their clothes are as tattered as beggars.

Tsk tsk, I dont even have a pair of shoes, my feet are so cold theyre almost turning into pigs hooves.

Hey, its so pitiful...

There were those who laughed at them, and some who pitied them.

None of the others in Gu Jinli took their words to heart.

They disdain anyone who laughs at them. After escaping all the way, they are heroes if they survive.

Pity them, they dont need it. They have hands and feet and can live their own lives.

Gu Jinli carried her two sacks, slammed two taels of silver in front of the counter, and said to the shopkeeper of the cloth shop: "How to sell cotton and cotton cloth?!"

The shopkeeper of the cloth shop originally wanted the clerk to kick them out, but when he saw her throwing away two taels of silver, he immediately said with a smile: "We have three types of cotton here: new cotton, old cotton, and miscellaneous cotton. New cotton costs 100 yuan per catty." , Old cotton costs sixty cents per catty, and miscellaneous cotton costs fifty cents per catty.

Grandpa San frowned and said, "This price is more expensive than in previous years."

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "The old man is right, the price is indeed more expensive than in previous years, but this year we have suffered disasters all over the country, and the prices of many things have increased. Now it is the Chinese New Year, and it is the time for everyone to make new clothes. At that time, the price will naturally be more expensive.
