Chapter 32
Borrowing Strength
Su Yue's words were like a basin of cold water that poured out all Shen Qingrou's enthusiasm. So much money and things were wasted, "No one wants it?"
"How could it be possible? It's such a useful thing." Li Erya was confident, "If you don't believe it, I'll sell it to you, but I have to borrow a precious land to use it. I won't borrow your place in vain. This honey will be regarded as rent. "
Shen Muyin and Shen Qingrou looked at her in astonishment. It was not that they were reluctant to part with the honey, but they couldn't figure out what kind of medicine she was selling in the gourd.
"Okay, our relationship means rent or not." Su Yue laughed, he also wanted to see it.
The little girl was probably waiting for his words. Seeing her carrying a stool and a small medicine cabinet out, Su Yue suddenly felt uncertain, and she and Shen Muyin looked at each other in confusion.
Li Erya placed two boxes of mint ointment out, and immediately shouted loudly, "Come and see, come and buy, the mint ointment used by the royal family can dispel wind, relieve itching, and refresh the mind... Don't miss it if you pass by."
The three people in the room were stunned.
Shen Muyin was dumbfounded. It was too exaggerated to say that he was a member of the royal family. He didn't even have the nerve to look at Su Yue's face.
Su Yue couldn't help but laugh after being surprised.
"What good things are being sold outside?" Mrs. Su brought her daughter out and asked Su Yue curiously, "What are you tinkering with again?"
"It's not me." Su Yue waved his hands repeatedly, "But it is indeed a good thing."
Outside, Li Erya yelled at a few passing officials and successfully sold each of them a portion for ten cents a box. After all, they had to walk through the streets and go through dense forests on their errands. With mint ointment, they could suffer less.
"It's really sold." Su Yue was surprised.
Mrs. Su was afraid that she would sell out, so she directly ordered two boxes, planning to give them away to others and use them herself.
There were other people coming to buy. Li Erya didn't want to expose the actual cost, so he could only accept her money for the time being. He just glanced at Su Yue guiltily. After all, he was not stupid and probably knew what was inside.
"Come and see, come and buy, hurry up and get some, there are only the last few left." Li Erya shouted enthusiastically, "If someone at home is studying, this is the right thing to buy. It is good for refreshing the mind."
I didn't intend to join in the fun at first, so I couldn't help but join in when she said this. After trying it, I happily bought three boxes. I thought it would be a good gift to someone at home who could use it for reading.
Li Erya took the money with a smile and put out a few more boxes after they left.
In one morning, all the mint ointments were sold. Li Erya followed suit and gave Su Yue the honey as rent and paid him back five cents. The two boxes of mint ointment were treated as buy one and get one free. .
Mrs. Su had no choice but to accept the offer, praising her for her business skills.
Shen Qingrou, who had been ready to make a move, suddenly regretted not helping. She might as well have passed her hand with so much money.
Li Erya looked at Shen Muyin and Shen Qingrou, "Is there anything you want to buy? If not, then we will go back."
"Didn't you tell me to buy some medicine for my brother?" Shen Qingrou reminded in a low voice.
"Yes, I almost forgot." Li Erya asked Su Yue to help prescribe some medicine for Shen Muci, and directly suggested that he use ginseng, and paid the money readily.
Shen Qingrou felt embarrassed. She didn't expect that she would be willing to prescribe ginseng for her brother.
After getting the medicine, the three of them said goodbye to Su Yue and the others, and then went to buy some rice, oil and sugar. Li Erya also bought a few steamed buns and pancakes, and asked the pork seller to leave some large tube bones and a few pieces for her. pound of pork, just deliver it to her tomorrow.
She asked for a lot, but the butcher was willing to pay her a visit and readily agreed.
Shen Qingrou saw how refreshing she was to spend money without blinking an eye, but this time she was too embarrassed to tell her.
After returning home without any danger, Li Erya handed over two hundred coins to Mrs. Shen, kept two hundred and sixty coins for himself, and said he planned to buy some equipment for making other things.
Mrs. Shen couldn't say anything. The money she earned had far exceeded her expectations.
Shen Qingrou was still unsatisfied and asked her if she wanted to continue making mint ointment.
"Do it. Just make it and sell it to Dr. Su." Li Erya had already planned it. She was just doing a promotion. People who know the mint ointment is useful will naturally go to Huichun Hall to find it. "I will send some over the day after tomorrow."
"It's not urgent to make money." Shen Nanzhou hesitated for a moment but did not object, "Take care of your own health first."
"Yeah." Li Erya responded obediently.
Whenever she had time, she still went looking for mints. There weren't many around the school, so she simply asked Li Baoshan and the others to find some, and she paid them one penny or two pounds.
It is a worthless herbal medicine. A child can exchange it for some pocket money, and she does not have to find the raw materials by herself.
As for beeswax, there was some leftover from last time and there weren’t many boxes. The rest was made into mints.
Shen Qingrou tasted one and said she had been fooled.
"Don't you feel refreshed?" Li Erya threw one into his mouth, "Everyone likes radish and green vegetables, I believe some people will buy them."
Shen Nanzhou tried it. Although he found it difficult to swallow, he didn't waste it.
However, Shen Mici's eyes lit up and she wished she could go back and read immediately.
"Will eating too much be bad for your health?" Mrs. Shen was very happy when she saw Shen Muci saying that she wanted to read a book, because he had no energy to read before.
"It's not good to eat too much of anything. It's okay to eat it occasionally." Li Erya gave a few pills to Shen Muci, and she had to take the rest to the county town to sell them.
Shen Muyin thought she was going to give it to him, so he retracted his outstretched hand, half proud, half disappointed, "I don't have to eat that."
Li Erya automatically went past him and asked the others if they wanted to eat mint candies. Seeing that they didn't want to eat any more mints, she put away the remaining ones.
Someone came outside, and it was He Liqin who brought the steward.
The steward's surname was Fang, and he greeted Shen Nanzhou as soon as he entered the room.
"She wants it." Shen Nanzhou pointed at Li Erya and explained.
Manager Fang looked at Li Erya in surprise and turned to look at He Liqin. He couldn't explain such an important matter clearly.
He Liqin smiled naively and said that you didn't ask either, but in his opinion, Li Erya is also a member of the Shen family and a scholar. He himself misunderstood.
Li Erya glanced at Mrs. Shen and Shen Qingrou apologetically, and stayed to finalize the sample she wanted with Manager Fang.
After the others left, Shen Muyin was a little worried because she wanted to use Huichun Hall's brand.
"Is there any problem? Dr. Su shouldn't refuse." Li Erya said disapprovingly.
She would like to use her own title, but the price may drop several levels.
"It's not a question of whether he will refuse, but you should ask him what he means first. If you use Huichuntang as a brand, take a step back and say, if there is a conflict between the two of you, who should own this thing? ." Shen Nanzhou reminded.
"In business, these things must be made clear." Li Erya had already made a mental draft.
