Jiang Xia had been to the county town many times and had seen many people judge a book by its cover. Still, it was her first time encountering such a disrespectful old scholar who just threw the Isatis root directly back into her arms.

Jiang Xia instantly became angry. However, thinking that she still had half a basket of Isatis root left unsold and her purpose hadn’t been achieved, she suppressed her anger for the time being.

Jiang Xia put on a wronged expression, her eyes teary, clutching the Isatis root. “Grandpa, why won’t you accept the Isatis root? Didn’t you just ask me how many food tickets I wanted in exchange?”

The old scholar was already growing impatient, but he couldn’t bear to see the pitiable look on a child’s face. It reminded him of his own young grandson, softening his heart slightly, and he wasn’t as firm. “Little girl, you have too little Isatis root. One plant won’t even exchange for a pound of grain. What price do you expect me to give? 1 can’t give one”

Jiang Xia realized that he felt there was too little of the Isatis root. She smiled, took the vegetable basket from behind her, placed it on the ground, and lifted the cloth covering the basket, revealing half a basket of Isatis root.

“Grandpa, isn’t this enough for you to accept?”

The old scholar looked at the vibrant green Isatis root, which looked as if they had just been plucked from the ground.

He sighed in surprise, took off his presbyopic glasses and placed them on the counter. Then, he stepped out from behind the counter to personally check the half basket of Isatis root.

There were indeed many, and judging by their quality and quantity, they must have been grown in a professional medicinal field. He wondered, in these times when even vegetables could hardly grow, how could there be a medicinal field?

“Little girl, do you have any other medicinal herbs besides Isatis root?”

“No, only this one.”

“You only plant one type of herb in your medicinal field?” The old scholar was surprised.

Afraid that the old scholar would become suspicious, Jiang Xia fibbed, “We don’t have a medicinal field. These Isatis root were all found by villagers in the mountains. This is all we found.”

The old scholar didn’t ask further, glancing at Jiang Chuan and the two others standing at the entrance.

What could a child decide? Certainly, there were adults behind her guiding the decisions. The old scholar addressed Jiang Chuan, the only man among them, “The price for Isatis root isn’t high. Seeing as you’ve traveled all the way to the county town, I’ll offer you twenty pounds of grain tickets and two pounds of meat tickets. What do you think?”

Jiang Chuan, pulling Zhou Lan and Jiang Gu forward, thought the price was lower than expected. However, he always sought long-term customers in business, willing to take a slight loss initially to make a friend.

“Alright.”

Jiang Chuan smiled genuinely, quickly agreeing and even helping to place the Ban Lan Gen where the old scholar directed. This added a lot of points to the old scholar’s heart, and he even gave an extra five pounds of grain tickets.

Jiang Chuan then inquired, “Sir, which medicinal herbs have higher prices and are easier to find?”

The old scholar, now having a good impression of this family, willingly shared, “When you’re looking for herbs in the mountains, you might not find the volume as in a medicinal field. But the variety is your advantage. Herbs like fleece flower root and Tian Qi are more common and priced higher than Isatis root. If you find them, you can come and exchange them here for grain tickets.”

After listening, Jiang Chuan also specifically asked about the appearance of these herbs to recognize them in the future.

After getting the information, Jiang Chuan thanked the old scholar and left the pharmacy with his family.

Apart from the pharmacy, Jiang Xia sighed.” I thought medicinal herbs these days would be more expensive than wild vegetables. If they sold well, we could let the villagers also plant Isatis root to exchange for grain coupons. Who would’ve thought they’d be worth less than wild vegetables? I’ve worked so hard for nothing.”

Jiang Chuan comforted her, saying, “It wasn’t all for nothing. At least now we know which herbs are valuable. If we discover fleece flower root on the mountain and cultivate it in a dedicated medicinal field, finding a dedicated buyer could provide a significant source of income and become a pillar industry for our village.”

After a busy morning, they still had a basket of wild vegetables and a few bottles of meat sauce left. Jiang Chuan decided to make one last trip to the restaurant, sell the remaining items, and head home.

The previous night, Xiao Wu specifically told Jiang Chuan that he had arranged a dinner with Chen Xing from the production team at his house.

Although the dinner was at Xiao Wu’s place, Jiang Chuan was the host and needed to prepare in advance..
