Chapter 153 Hao's Pharmacy

It was daylight.

It's a pity that the black wind horse is gone, they can only walk, and Xiaoyi follows Ye Chen, looking around curiously, asking various questions from time to time, such as monsters, mysterious beasts, etc., but most of the time it is Ari who is patient answer for him.

With Xiaoyi, Ye Chen felt that there was an extra translator between himself and Ari, and Ye Chen didn't have to guess what Ari said in the future.

Listening to Xiaoyi and Ari babbling the language between monsters and mysterious beasts is also very special. Ye Chen listened to the words in it. With his learning ability, it may not be long before he can also learn the language of animals. .

When they arrived in a small town, they went to a restaurant to have a meal. Ye Chen immediately bought two new horses, and bought dozens of cows and sheep, let the chef roast them and put them into the armguard space. He has seen it For Xiaoyi's food intake, Xiaoyi never chews food, but just swallows it with a gulp. In the blink of an eye, a whole sheep has been eaten, and there is no abnormality in the stomach.

Such a young child has such an astonishing appetite, and it can attract crowds everywhere. Ye Chen dare not stay in the small town, lest he be regarded as a monster, and left the town after buying something.

Following the official road, they headed all the way towards the imperial capital.

The official road is full of traffickers and pawns, leading mules and horses, and transporting goods. After asking, they are all heading to the imperial capital. This official road is not the main road. There are already so many people traveling between the imperial capital and various places. Imagine the prosperity of the imperial capital.

"Brother Ye Chen, Sister Ari said that the civet cat family is different from ordinary monsters and mysterious beasts. Generally, civet cats will transform when they grow three tails. The later the civet cats learn to transform, the more talented they are. She doesn't understand. , why has she grown to six tails, and hasn't learned how to change shape yet." Xiao Yi said in a childish voice while eating the leg of lamb.

"Yeah." Ye Chen nodded and said, so that's the case. It seems that Ari's talent should be very high among the civet cats.

"Sister Ari said that she wants to learn how to change form earlier." Xiaoyi said.

"Why, didn't you say that the later you take shape, the higher your talent?" Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Ari, but saw that Ari's cheeks were slightly red, indescribably charming, and his heart skipped a beat.

Xiaoyi opened her eyes wide, looked curiously at Ari, then at Ye Chen, why did elder brother Ye Chen suddenly stop talking, why did sister Ari suddenly become shy? The world of adults is really hard to understand, woo hoo, leg of lamb is so delicious.

After following Ye Chen, Xiaoyi had almost endless lamb shanks and beef along the way. He felt that he was really happy. It was great to follow Ye Chen's brother and Ari's sister, and there was meat to eat every day!

They passed through five counties, and the imperial capital was already far away. On this road, they took the official road, and nothing happened. They chatted with the traffickers and pawns, and saw everything along the way. Ye Chen was very familiar with the situation of the Xiwu Empire. With a general understanding.

Among these counties, Donglin County is relatively good. Due to the shortage of food in several counties, the rebellion of the army was very serious. The kings of the counties sent a large army to suppress and kill millions of people. Chaotic people, many villages and towns are empty, and on both sides of the official road, some people who starve to death can be seen from time to time.

In troubled times, human life is worthless.

Ye Chen sighed slightly in his heart, with his own ability, he couldn't change that much at all, as long as he was not assimilated by this world, kept his heart, and had a clear conscience.

From time to time on the official road, a large group of cavalry in silver armor galloped by. Apart from clearing the gangsters and refugees on the official road, these cavalry did not do anything to these people who sold goods.

No money was searched, so it can be seen that there is still some order here.

Maybe Yin Mengtian was right. Emperor Mingwu was still a good emperor, but this dynasty has been rotten from the root. The Xiwu Empire once produced a large number of talents, and it was considered a powerful country among the surrounding countries. However, it has declined rapidly in the past seven or eight hundred years. After the war with the barbarian countries, the Xiwu Empire is on the verge of collapse.

Following a caravan, one can see a magnificent city wall hundreds of meters high built against the mountain from a distance.

"The Linguan is here. Once you enter here, you will be the imperial capital!" The people in the caravan shouted loudly. After traveling for half a month or more, they finally arrived at their destination. How could they not be excited?

Ye Chen followed the caravan, paid two yuan for entering the city, and entered the temporary pass.

There are a large number of troops stationed in Linguan, and there is a tall sergeant in silver armor standing every one or two meters near the city wall.

I don't know which general is stationed at this pass, but he still has a good way of running the army.

After entering the customs, you will see a large stretch of houses, these houses are a bit dilapidated, the streets are full of people coming and going, those licensed peddlers will rest here, so in the customs, there are many restaurants, There are inns and even large brothels. There are many painted women standing on the street, waving silk handkerchiefs to attract businessmen.

This place is indeed much more prosperous than Donglin County.

"Brother Ye Chen, is this the imperial capital? There are many people in the imperial capital, much more than our town!" Xiaoyi opened her mouth wide and said excitedly. Along the way, due to the improvement of food, Xiaoyi has grown into a The little fat man in the fat man's hand has a chubby face, pink and tender, just like the Fuwa in the New Year pictures, it looks very cute.

"This is just a temporary pass, and it takes half a day for the horse to reach the imperial capital, which is much more prosperous than here." Ye Chen smiled and said.

"Huh? Isn't this the imperial capital?" Xiaoyi's eyes widened. From his point of view, this place is already very prosperous.

There are a variety of fresh things to buy and sell on the street. There are a lot of things that Ye Chen has never seen before. There are many stalls selling herbs on the street. Ye Chen is fascinated. Most of these herbs are very common and the age is very low. , although some are better than ordinary herbs, they are useless to Ye Chen. These herbs are only for ordinary people to use, but they are not enough for alchemy.

Not sure if I can find something good here.

Faintly swept across a pharmacy, and felt that there were some good things there, Ye Chen turned his head and said, "Ah Li, Xiao Yi, let's go to the pharmacy in front."

Walking along the street for a while, I saw a majestic shop on the side of the street, with a flag flying in front of it, and the words "Hao's Pharmacy" were written on it.

Howe? Could it be the Hao family from Xijing?

Ye Chen once heard from his father and uncle that the Hao family in Xijing is the largest family in the Xiwu Empire besides the royal family. One, one of them, seems to be learning the way of alchemy from Xuanyi Yaozun.

Ye Chen came to buy medicine, so he didn't bother to pay attention to Hao's background. In the space of Ye Chen's arm guard, there were a full 300,000 Qi Gathering Pills and more than 5,000 Qi Condensation Pills. What kind of concept is this? Yiding) The king of the county, after all the assets are converted, it will be enough to get together 100,000 qi gathering pills. The qi gathering pills and condensing qi pills in Ye Chen's hand are more than the sum of more than a dozen county kings. More than enough to buy! This money was earned by the Ye family from trading Ganoderma lucidum, and there will be even greater income in the future!

If there are any good herbs, they should be bought first and stuffed into the space of the armguard. They may be useful in the future. It depends on whether there is anything he likes in Hao's pharmacy.

Ye Chen stepped into the Hao's drugstore. The shopkeeper of the drugstore was a middle-aged man, about forty years old, tall and strong, he looked like a cultivator, an eighth-level peak master, sitting behind the counter drinking tea leisurely, tens of A fellow is constantly busy.

In the Hao family, the children of the family who are generally not well-known will be sent outside to manage the family business. An eighth-level peak master was actually sent here to look after the shop, which shows the heritage of the Hao family!

There are people coming and going in the pharmacy. Many people buy medicines here. Most of them buy ordinary herbs. Some rare herbs are placed in an iron cabinet behind the counter. When you look at them, you will find that there are many good things in them. .

The iron cabinet was built extremely solidly, with thick big locks set up. It can be imagined how much Hao's Pharmacy attaches importance to those precious herbs!

Hao's herb sales spread all over the Xiwu Empire. They collect a lot of herbs every year, including some precious herbs. Some things they don't need, they put them in the shop for sale. The pharmacists of the Xiwu Empire are all Hao's A frequent visitor to the pharmacy.

Although there are dozens of customers in this shop, none of them bought precious herbs from Hao's.

In such a large Hao's Pharmacy, you may not be able to run into a single sale of rare medicinal herbs in a few days, but once you encounter one, it is enough to equal the sum of the sales income of ordinary medicinal herbs for several months!

Ye Chen walked towards the counter where the precious medicinal herbs were placed. The shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he saw Ye Chen. He had seen a lot of all kinds of religions and nine streams here. He knew Ye Chen was a practitioner from a family of martial arts. The civet cat, should be a second or third rank monster. Children of this kind of aristocratic family usually spend tens or hundreds of times more than ordinary customers in buying and selling pills and herbs.

"My guest, do you want to buy something, or pawn pills and herbs?" The shopkeeper stood up and said politely, "Old man Hao Xu is a third-generation disciple of the Hao family in Xijing." When he was speaking, he looked at Ye Chen , guessing Ye Chen's origin.

"Can we pawn pills and herbs here?" Ye Chen asked in surprise, he didn't expect Hao's Pharmacy to have such a business.

"That's right. Our Hao's Pharmacy sells all kinds of rare herbs and pills at reasonable prices." Hao Xu said, frowning slightly. Ye Chen didn't even know about this. He might be a child from a small family from a remote village.

For large businesses, only Hao Xu will be involved in person, and for ordinary small businesses, the waiters will be fine. However, since Ye Chen has been received, Hao Xu remains calm.

"I don't know what you need. Do you want to buy it or sell it?" Hao Xu asked lightly.
