302 Selling the Paris Polyphylla
As expected, the villagers found and brought over two old doctors in the afternoon. One of them specialized in fixing bones so he helped to fix Doctor Hu’s leg bones. However, both of them did not leave after that.
This was because they realized that there was a medicinal garden in front of Doctor Hu’s door where there was a Paris polyphylla!
“Am I seeing things? There’s actually a Paris polyphylla here!!” One of the two old physicians was knowledgeable and recognized the Paris polyphylla at a glance. Although it was still in the form of a seedling, he still recognized it.
Whether this thing was valuable or not was secondary. The main reason was that it could treat snake venom. If it was mixed with the proper herbs, it could treat all the snake venoms in the world.
As doctors, they were naturally happy to see such effective medicinal herbs.
The villagers had long known that the Paris polyphylla was very valuable.
However, they usually did not see such things when they entered the mountains. In the past ten months, only Widow Zhou’s brother-in-law, Hu Erpang, had found a small stalk. After handing it to Doctor Hu, he even earned dozens of taels of silver.
The villagers even talked about this matter for a long time.
But now, the villagers were no longer very interested in things that could treat snake venom.
This was because the snakes near their village would not attack them anymore. Sometimes, they would even discover that the snakes would help them chase away other ferocious little animals.
Coincidentally, that old doctor had a patient who had been bitten by a venomous snake and was on the verge of death. When the old doctor saw the Paris polyphylla, how could he let it go?
“Doctor Hu, please sell a stalk of your Paris polyphylla to me. Take it that I owe you a favor.” The old doctor said, “My patient’s family is quite rich. If we can save his life, he’ll remember your Hu Family Village’s kindness in the future.”
Doctor Hu’s eyes flashed. Earning money was not a big deal, but being owed a favor was definitely a good thing.
The Paris polyphylla was actually found by Ah Yu and Doctor Hu had always suspected that Ah Yu had used some special method to replace it.
The villagers might have discovered this child’s miraculous abilities. They believed that she just had an extra layer of protection when bad things happened.
“We’re all doctors. I also understand the benevolent spirit of our profession. It’s just that my Paris polyphylla hasn’t matured yet, and I don’t know how effective it is. But I’ll give one to you,” Doctor Hu said. “As for the price, we’ll go with 80 taels.”
When the villagers beside him heard this, they gasped. 80 taels of silver. It was just some small green sprouts!
This income was already better than them farming all year round!
The old doctor looked pained, but he still took out 80 taels of silver.
He was even wondering if Doctor Hu had some mind-reading skills. How did he know that he had brought exactly 80 taels?
However, he still paid the money. Thinking that he could still use this Paris polyphylla to gain back the cost when he returned, he was satisfied.
After Doctor Hu’s leg was fixed, the villagers heaved a sigh of relief. They dispersed and went back to doing their own things. Some people then went to Old man Wang’s house to continue building the house.
On the other hand, Little Ah Yu returned home and said to Old Madam Wang, “Sister Tang Yuan said that Big Brother Xiao Tong is too old. Grandma, let’s go and replace Big Brother’s wife together. What if Big Brother’s wife also thinks that Big Brother is old?”
Little Ah Yu would never admit that she only wanted to take the opportunity to watch the commotion.
Old Madam Wang glanced at Tang Yuan warningly. This little girl.
She turned to smile at Little Ah Yu. “Alright, we’ll go tomorrow.”
Coincidentally, Ah Yu’s grain seeds should arrive tomorrow. At that time, they would replace the crops they had bought from town. It would be just right.
