Adorable Twins: A Hunter's Wife Has Space

Chapter 16: A Legend

Chapter 16: A Legend

If Su Li's medical skills were so powerful, wouldn't her master be even more powerful?

If he could go and meet the old man, his medical skills should be able to reach a higher level. Cheng Yu started to plan in his heart.

Su Li tidied her clothes. "My master keeps a low profile and has repeatedly instructed me not to mention his name. Besides, he has long stopped caring about the world. It's useless even if you know his name."

Don't ask who her master was. She wouldn't tell because her master was a legend!

Cheng Yu was a little disappointed when he heard Su Li's words, but even though he couldn't meet her master, his disciple was still in front of him, so he could discuss with her.

Cheng Yu smiled at Su Li ingratiatingly. "Your acupuncture technique just now is very novel. I've been a doctor for so many years, but I've never seen your acupuncture technique."

Su Li smiled and did not say anything. This was a skill from the future. How could it not be novel?

"Do you accept herbs here?" Su Li changed the topic.

Cheng Yu glanced at Su Li's basket. It was covered with something, so he couldn't see what was inside. However, after what Su Li said, it was definitely herbs inside.

"Can I see it?"

"Of course."

Su Li removed the basket on her back and revealed the restorative incense in it.

Cheng Yu reached out and took one of the restorative incense. This herb looked good. Their medical center needed to buy some herbs, but there were rules in the medical center. All the herbs needed for the medical center were ordered by the owner.

He did this to control people from cheating, and he was also afraid that unqualified herbs would harm the patient.

"Your restorative incense is not bad, but the herbs needed for the clinic are all purchased by the owner. I can't make the decision!"

Su Li looked disappointed. She had thought that she could sell some herbs to earn a small sum of money, but she did not expect it to fail in the end.

Cheng Yu changed the topic and said, "But I can help you ask him."

"Then I'll have to trouble you!" Su Li said.

Cheng Yu waved his hand. "It's nothing."

He still wanted Su Li to teach him that acupuncture technique, so what was this small matter?

Cheng Yu went upstairs to look for the owner of Huiren Hall. Su Li sat in the hall and continued to wait.

After a while, Cheng Yu went downstairs apologetically.

"Miss, I'm really sorry. Our boss has already gone out just now. I was busy with the consultation just now and thought that he was still upstairs."

"It's fine. I'll come back another day!" Su Li stood up and walked out.

Her goal this time was not to sell herbs, so she was not too disappointed that she did not sell them.

"When our boss comes back, I'll tell him immediately. Don't worry, I still have some position here. As long as I ask, he will definitely agree."

Su Li smiled at Cheng Yu. "Then I'll thank Doctor Cheng in advance."

Cheng Yu waved his hand and said, "It's just a small matter. You can tell me if you need anything. As long as I can help, I'll definitely try my best."

For the sake of learning, he was going all out!

Su Li could tell what he was thinking, but she did not expose Cheng Yu. If he wanted to learn, she was willing to teach him. However, she did not have the time today. After all, her livelihood was the most important thing.

Su Li nodded at Cheng Yu and left Huiren Hall. After some thought, she found another medical center. She wanted to try and see if other families would accept her herbs.

In the end, Su Li was greatly disappointed. Other medical centers were not as prestigious as Huiren Hall, so their business had never been good. In addition, the things in Su Li's hands were not ginseng or lingzhi. When the shop assistants heard that they were herbs, they rejected her directly.

Su Li did not expect such an outcome. After leaving the medical center, she found a deserted place and put the herbs in her hand into her interspace.

Selling herbs to make a fortune would not work for the time being unless she could find ginseng or lingzhi.

However, ginseng and lingzhi were not cabbages. How could she find them so easily? She had to make soap first!

Su Li carried her empty basket and walked around the streets. She had to make sure she knew the prices in the market so that she wouldn't be tricked.

What she needed to do now was to buy oil.

Because oil is the main ingredient for making soap, the ingredients for making oil include sheep or cow oil, lard, and some vegetable oil.

Su Li planned to use lard to make soap. This was because lard was simple and easy to buy. In addition, the quality of lard was the best. It was white and had a special fragrance. It was the best ingredient that can be used to make soap.

Su Li walked around the market and figured out the price. In the end, she stopped at a pork shop.

The boss of the pork shop was burly and did not look like someone to be trifled with. However, at this moment, he was looking at Su Li with a smile.

"Miss, what do you want to buy?"

"Do you have lard?" Su Li asked.

"You can have as much as you want!" The owner of the pork stall took out a large pile of lard from under the stall.

Su Li looked at the lard and realized that it looked good. She asked, "How much is it?"

"Twenty-five copper coins a catty."

"How many catties are there in total?" Su Li estimated that there were at least 20 to 30 catties of lard here.

The pork shop owner said, "There's quite a lot of them. There's a total of 20 catties. You can have as much as you want."

Su Li did some calculations in her heart. She had earned 500 copper coins just now. Coupled with the 200 copper coins from before, she still had a surplus to buy some lard!

Su Li said, "15 copper coins, I want everything."

The pork shop owner frowned and refused, "That won't do. There's no profit in this to begin with. Even if you buy everything at once, I won't be able to earn even two copper coins."

Su Li persuaded, "It's not like there are people buying this every day. If you keep it and throw it away, you might as well sell it to me at a low price. It's a small profit and a lot of sales!"

"This doesn't earn money to begin with. If no one buys it, I'll take it home myself. The oil dregs taste good. My shop sells it for 25 copper coins, but others sell it for 26 copper coins a catty. If you don't believe me, go to another shop to take a look."

The pork shop owner still refused. After all, no one was willing to do a losing business.

Seeing his determined expression, Su Li knew that she could not negotiate this price. However, he was indeed telling the truth. In the entire market, his lard was the cheapest. The reason why it was cheap might be because his location was a little remote. Most people would buy things in the front of the street and not come to him.

Su Li saw some pig intestines and pig lungs in the corner and thought of the delicious pig intestines. Tears almost flowed from the corners of her eyes.

She pointed at the pile of things and said, "Since you refuse to discount your lard, can you give me those pig intestines and pig lungs?"

The pork store owner glanced at the pig intestines and pig lungs. These things were not very valuable, and there were fewer people who bought them. This was because no matter how they were processed, they would always have a taste. Those with money would directly buy pork, and those without money would not buy these. Therefore, these pig intestines were left every day. Sometimes, if he could not sell them all, he would directly throw them to the dogs to eat.

However, it was impossible to give it to Su Li directly. After all, he might be able to sell it for some money if he kept it.

"Why don't you give me ten copper coins for these things? Treat it as compensation for my hard work," the pork shop owner said.
