Chapter 11 Song Yuan Tang

  • It was only then that Qin Sheng remembered that there was no money left at home, as it had all been used to contribute to his own dowry and to treat his mother's illness.
  • He had also been fired by the food delivery platform, and not only did he not receive his salary, but he also couldn't get his deposit back.
  • "Don't worry, Mom, I'll figure something out."
  • Although he had the memories of an immortal and various abilities, the immediate concern was the family's meals.
  • As they were talking, Qin Sheng's phone received a message with a "ding" sound.
  • The 50,000 yuan compensation from the city's first hospital had been deposited.
  • It seemed that Director Li was very sincere. Generally, the process for receiving compensation from a hospital involved several steps and could take up to ten days or even a month.
  • However, in Qin Sheng's case, it only took one day for the compensation to arrive.
  • With money in hand, he had confidence.
  • Qin Sheng went out to buy breakfast and a lot of fresh vegetables, meat, and fruits, filling the refrigerator.
  • As for the remaining money, he planned to buy some nourishing medicinal herbs for his mother. In addition, according to the inheritance memories of the immortal, he also needed medicinal herbs for his cultivation.
  • Qin Sheng arrived at Song Yuan Tang, the largest traditional Chinese medicine store in Jiangzhou City.
  • From the outside, Song Yuan Tang had an antique decoration, exuding an extraordinary aura. The interior furnishings were all made of mahogany, and there were also many displays of blue and white porcelain, giving it a strong sense of antiquity.
  • A pair of couplets hung at the entrance. The upper couplet read: "Renowned for authentic medicinal herbs." The lower couplet read: "Witness the miraculous medical skills."
  • In addition to selling medicinal herbs, Song Yuan Tang also had experienced traditional Chinese medicine doctors available for consultation.
  • Since it was early in the morning and the store had just opened, there were not many customers inside the pharmacy.
  • There was only one salesperson lazily tidying up the counter. When Qin Sheng entered, the salesperson glanced at him without paying much attention.
  • "Excuse me, I need to get some herbs." Qin Sheng politely said.
  • "Just wait, we're not open yet." The salesperson replied without even looking up.
  • They had already opened the store, but they were not open for business yet. Song Yuan Tang was really exaggerating.
  • Qin Sheng felt dissatisfied, and although he would have left in other circumstances, Song Yuan Tang was the largest traditional Chinese medicine store in Jiangzhou City, with a complete range of herbs and good quality. It couldn't be compared to other pharmacies.
  • "Don't you tell me it's not time to open yet?" The salesperson suddenly interrupted their conversation and started watching short videos of beautiful women in short skirts on their phone. Qin Sheng couldn't help but feel annoyed.
  • "Can I get the herbs now?" He said loudly.
  • Normally, he would have turned around and left, but since Song Yuan Tang was the largest traditional Chinese medicine store in Jiangzhou City, with a complete range of herbs and good quality, he couldn't find a better alternative.
  • "Don't you know it's not time to open yet?" The salesperson replied impatiently after being interrupted.
  • Qin Sheng walked up directly and placed the prepared herbal prescription on the counter.
  • "I need these herbs!" He said in a deep voice.
  • Perhaps intimidated by Qin Sheng's aura, the salesperson reluctantly picked up the prescription and looked at it.
  • Upon seeing it, their eyes lit up.
  • These were all precious Chinese herbs, and the total price was very high. If this order was completed, they would earn a good commission.
  • The salesperson quickly put down their phone and put on a smile.
  • "Sir, do you want all the herbs listed on this prescription?"
  • "Yes, and some of them need to be over thirty years old." Qin Sheng said.
  • He planned to start practicing martial arts, so the first step was to cultivate his body, which required some rare medicinal herbs.
  • "Alright, I'll go get them for you." The salesperson happily said.
  • After a while of busy work behind the counter and in the storeroom, the salesperson gathered all the required herbs and placed them on the counter.
  • Qin Sheng checked them and nodded in satisfaction.
  • Both the age and quality were excellent.
  • "How much is it?"
  • "Just a moment, let me calculate."
  • The salesperson took out a calculator and carefully calculated for a while.
  • "Sir, I've calculated it."
  • "If all the herbs listed on this prescription are available and meet your age requirements, it will cost 156,800 yuan, the lowest price."
  • "Will you be paying by card or scanning the QR code?" The salesperson asked.
  • What? It's so expensive!
  • Qin Sheng was dumbfounded. Although he had graduated from medical school, he didn't have much concept of the prices of Chinese herbs. He didn't expect that just over thirty types of herbs would be so expensive!
  • "I'm sorry, I don't have that much money on me. I didn't realize it would be so expensive." Qin Sheng felt a bit embarrassed.
  • He only had a little over 40,000 yuan on him, which was far from enough.
  • "No money?" The salesperson's expression immediately changed upon hearing this.
  • "Are you kidding me? If you don't have money, why did you come to get the herbs?"
  • "You made me waste my time for nothing."
  • "Look at the cheap clothes you're wearing, you're not someone who can afford it. I must have been blind. Get lost!" The salesperson's anger and disdain were evident.
  • Qin Sheng didn't expect the young salesperson to suddenly change their attitude and use foul language. He also felt anger rising within him.
  • "What's wrong with you? This is your job in the first place. What are you complaining about!" He reached over the counter and grabbed the salesperson's collar.
  • "What are you going to do? You want to hit me? Go ahead!" Feeling that this person was not easy to deal with, the salesperson felt a bit apprehensive, but still stood their ground.
  • "Hmph!" Qin Sheng snorted coldly and let go of their hand.
  • He had many things to do and didn't want to get entangled with a salesperson.
  • He picked up the prescription and left.
  • "No money and still acting tough, you lunatic!" The salesperson muttered from behind.
  • As Qin Sheng walked out of Song Yuan Tang, he felt a bit frustrated.
  • A penny is hard to come by, and in this world, money is still necessary.
  • Although He Sanping said he would give him the Emperor Hotel, Qin Sheng didn't take it to heart and thought it was just a casual remark.
  • When he returned to his home in the urban village, he saw his mother and sister looking at him with strange eyes as soon as he opened the door.
  • "Brother, there's a visitor who came specifically to see you." Qin Xiaoru made a funny face at him and said mysteriously.
