Chapter 251 Custom Coffins
After Hua Xiangyue said this, I immediately realized that these more than nine taels of Polygonum multiflorum were one of the three precious medicinal herbs that would unlock the malnutrition and worms on my body.
"Miss Hua, where did you buy Polygonum multiflorum from? I will transfer it to you how much." I asked at the giant Polygonum multiflorum in Hua Xiangyue's hand.
Hua Xiangyue first handed me Polygonum multiflorum, and then said to me:
"I really didn't buy this Polygonum multiflorum. There is a botanical garden specially used to plant various medicinal materials in the back mountain of our sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect sect
I listened to what Hua Xiangyue said. Although she said it was lightly, I knew very well what risks she was taking. I once heard Mr. Qin tell me that the Botanical Garden and Sutra Pavilion in every cultivation sect are forbidden areas, and ordinary disciples are not allowed to approach it.
In order to help me and Jiang Chao, Hua Xiangyue broke into the forbidden area of the Botanical Garden of the Corpse Driving Sect, and even took away the largest Polygonum multiflorum. Once the Corpse Driving Sect discovers and tracks it down, she will definitely have big trouble.
"Miss Hua, I am not very good at speaking. In short, I remember your kindness to us. If you need any help from Jiang Chao in the future, just talk."
This is not a compliment, but a thought from the bottom of my heart.
Hua Xiangyue smiled slightly after hearing this:
"Chujiu, you're a little dissatisfied with me. You don't have to be polite to me. We are good friends, and it's time for good friends to help each other."
Jiang Chao also spoke:
"Miss Hua, I will never thank you for your kindness. Although I, Jiang Chao, have no great skills, I will just say one thing in the future. As long as you need us, please greet me at any time!"
After hearing this, Hua Xiangyue looked at Jiang Chao:
"Okay, don't say anything polite. I'm awkward. You should consider more of the other two medicinal materials now. If I remember correctly, there are yellow wolfberry and trilobite, right? As far as I know, these two medicinal materials are not easy to encounter."
I said:
"Jiang Chao and I are about to go to the traditional Chinese medicine store in the town to ask and try our luck."
Hua Xiangyue waved her hand and said:
"Don't ask about the traditional Chinese medicine store in Gugu County. There will definitely be no one. In fact, you can try your luck in the ghost market, but you don't have time to go to the next ghost market for the rest of your time. You have to think of other ways."
After hearing this, Jiang Chao frowned and thought for a while and said:
"Since there are no Chinese medicine stores in our county, why don't we go to the Chinese medicine stores in the city to ask?"
Flower nodded to the moon:
"Yes, there may be news about such medicinal materials in large Chinese medicine stores."
So Jiang Chao and I decided to have breakfast first and then go to the Chinese medicine store in the city to ask.
Hua Xiangyue hurriedly left without even staying to have breakfast together because there was something else.
After Jiang Chao and I were gnawing two meat buns, we just locked the Qinji coffin shop to go out, but we met a very strange customer.
The customer wore long-sleeved trousers, sunglasses, hat and mask on the hot noon, and even a pair of black gloves on his hands, which was completely wrapped.
The customer walked up to Jiang Chao and me and asked in a deep voice:
"Does your coffin shop sell coffins?"
Jiang Chao said helplessly after hearing this:
"Brother, do we still sell pizza if we don't sell coffins in our coffin shop?"
The customer then said:
"Then how long does it take for me to customize a coffin?"
I said:
"Boss, there is no fixed time for this. It depends on the type and craftsmanship of your customized coffin, as well as the requirements for wood."
"Pineapple wood, the coffin is eight feet long and three feet wide. There are no patterns or carvings on the coffin. How long will it take?" The customer raised his head and stared at me through the dark sunglasses.
"About one week to ten days." I said a more conservative time according to the process of customizing coffins in the coffin shop. After all, Mr. Qin is not here, and it takes time for me to make coffins by myself.
The customer nodded:
"I ordered, how much?"
"The pineapple wooden coffin of this size is about 4,500 yuan." I said.
"Okay, I don't have to look for it. I'll get the coffin in ten days." The man said, taking out a stack of cash from his pocket and handed it to me, then turned around and left.
I counted the folded cash in my hand exactly five thousand.
Jiang Chao looked at the man's back as he walked away and said:
"This man is so strange. His whole body is wrapped like a polar bear, and he can't see anything."
"Okay, let's go to the city first." I said and put the money in my backpack and rushed to the passenger station with Jiang Chao.
After two or three hours of bumpy ride, Jiang Chao and I came to Anlai City.
After arriving in Anlai City, Jiang Chao and I went to three Chinese herbal medicine shops in a row. The owners inside said that there was no trilobite and yellow wolfberry. Some owners even said that they had never seen this herb, but had heard of it.
After coming out of the fourth Chinese herbal medicine store, Jiang Chao and I realized that the sparseness of these trilobites and yellow wolfberry was far beyond our expectations. It was a big challenge for us to buy two other medicinal materials in less than a week.
"The ninth day of the lunar month, it's about twelve o'clock. Let's find a place to have dinner first?" Jiang Chao said, looking at the time on his phone.
"Okay, what do you want to eat at noon?" I asked.
Jiang Chao looked around and said:
"There is a Lanzhou ramen opposite. Can you eat noodles?"
"Okay, let's go!" As he said that, Jiang Chao and I came to the Lanzhou Ramen Restaurant and ordered two large bowls of beef ramen.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Chao and I went to the next Chinese herbal medicine store in Anlai City to ask. The same result was that the owner of the store had never seen these two kinds of medicinal materials.
So we thought of the only auction house in Anlai City: Anlai International Auction House. I heard that some precious medicinal materials are often auctioned here.
In the afternoon, Jiang Chao and I rushed to Anlai International Auction House. We finally got a list of items to be auctioned by the auction house this week. We only saw a hundred-year-old ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum among the medicinal materials category, but there was no record of trilobite cordyceps and yellow wolfberry.
So the auction house was also excluded by us.
As time got late, after dinner, Jiang Chao and I prepared to stay in a nearby hotel for the time being, and tomorrow we will continue to try our best to inquire about the news about Cordyceps sinensis and yellow wolfberry.
At night, Jiang Chao and I lay down in the hotel and chatted for a few words, I felt sleepy and fell asleep in a daze...
In my sleep, I saw a figure that was both slim and somewhat familiar in a blur...
