Chapter 51 The Old Man in White Robe

Soon, the street became lively, and more and more people came to the market. Although most people came to see the excitement and would not spend money to buy anything, there were also a small number of people who came just for the goods in the market.

Lin Baiyi's items were not many in each item. The most common item was a pot brush, which was only five. Other brooms, dustpans, etc. were even fewer, only three pairs.

There was also a fish basket, a tofu basket, a food box, etc., all single items, and even a brush holder.

Although they were single items, the workmanship was absolutely exquisite, and soon attracted several women to come and see the goods. One asked, the other asked. The key point was that Lin Baiyi was very honest when selling things.

Others sold pot brushes for three cents each, but he sold them for two cents, which was definitely cheaper than others.

Soon, he sold a few items. Although the price was not high, it was at least an income, which made the couple happy, and their eyes narrowed into a line.

Seeing that business was coming, Lin Baiyi and his wife could handle it completely, so Lin Caisang and Lin Changhong left the stall and went to the newly opened medicine shop, where the shop assistant was cleaning.

"Two guests, do you want to get medicine?"

Seeing that there were customers coming, the shop assistant quickly put the broom aside and greeted them with a smile.

"Little brother, do you collect medicinal materials here? I have some medicinal materials here." Lin Caisang glanced at the bamboo basket behind Lin Changhong and asked the shop assistant.

"Medicinal materials?"

The shop assistant glanced at the two of them, squinted at the bamboo basket behind Lin Changhong, and although he curled his lips, he was not unhappy.

"Of course, medicinal materials are collected. You can go to the backyard with me. The shopkeeper has to see if it is good medicinal materials before collecting them."

After saying that, he took the two to the backyard.

...

As soon as I stepped into the backyard, a wisp of tea fragrance floated into my nose, refreshing my heart.

Looking around, an old man with gray hair and wearing a white robe was sitting on a bamboo chair. In front of him was a bamboo table with tea sets on it. The aroma of tea was wafting from there.

"Old shopkeeper, you are here."

The clerk saw the old man and immediately smiled and greeted him.

"What's the matter?"

The old man raised his head slightly and glanced sharply at Lin Caisang and the other person behind the clerk.

"It's like this, this young man and the young girl said they have medicinal herbs and asked if our medicine shop would accept them, so I wanted to ask the shopkeeper to take a look." The clerk glanced at Lin Changhong and replied.

"Medicinal herbs? Bring them here for me to see." The old man said.

"Okay."

Hearing his words, Lin Changhong immediately took off the bamboo basket on his back and strode forward to put it next to the old man.

"There are a lot of medicinal herbs here. We have packed them separately. Take a look at this. This is..."

"Polygonatum."

Lin Caisang continued what her elder brother said, because Lin Changhong only knew the medicinal herbs, but didn't know what they were called.

"Old sir, I have several kinds of medicinal herbs here, Polygonatum, Huangqin, Quanshen, Danshen, Gastrodia, Bupleurum, Saposhnikovia, and Paeonia. Please take a look. Can you accept these?"

She walked to the old shopkeeper and asked respectfully.

"Haha, there are quite a lot of medicinal herbs."

The old man stroked his long beard on his chest with one hand and took a bag of medicinal herbs to his nose and smelled it.

"Gastrodia, it smells strong, but..."

He opened the paper that wrapped the medicinal herbs and took a look at it, but there was some disgust on his face.

"Little girl, your medicinal herbs are..."
