Transmigration: Becoming the Wicked Stepmother of Four Children

Chapter 175 Lin Yunlan is jealous

Lu Qingqing looked at the confident expressions on everyone's faces.

He said with a smile:

"Uncle Lin Feng, Village Chief Li"

The artificial cultivation of purple ginseng is indeed a good thing.

but,

Should we go to the pharmacy and ask about the purchase price of Ziling ginseng first?

This way we'll have a better understanding of the situation.

This will give the villagers more confidence to do this.

Village Chief Li slapped his thigh, suddenly realizing:

"Oh dear, Miss Qingqing is right."

Why didn't I think of that?

If we could find out the price clearly...

Everyone was confident.

They'll definitely have more energy when they work.

Raymond Lam nodded in agreement:

"That's right, that's right, and after knowing the price..."

This will help us plan the scale of future plantings.

But I went to the pharmacy to inquire about the price.

Who should we send?

"Actually, as long as they are trustworthy people..."

Anyone can go.

After all, if this were to actually happen,

It concerns everyone's vital interests.

As for where the Purple Spirit Ginseng is sold...

Village Chief Li, you might as well send someone to Baohetang in town to take a look.

As far as I know, there are so many pharmacies in town.

The prices offered by Baohetang for medicinal herbs were the most reasonable.

Lu Qingqing said earnestly.

Village Chief Li nodded slightly and pondered for a moment:

"What Miss Qingqing said makes sense."

Baohetang has always had a good reputation in this area.

However, we need to carefully consider this candidate.

At this time, Shunzi—the son of Village Chief Li,

He stepped forward, his expression resolute:

"Father, let me go!"

Don't you trust my ability to get things done?

I will definitely find out the exact purchase price of Purple Spirit Ginseng.

"Also, find out the purchase prices of other medicinal materials for Baohetang and bring them back."

Qiangzi quickly added:

"Dad, how about I go with Shunzi?"

Having more people means we can look out for each other.

In case anything happens, we can discuss it together.

Village Chief Li looked at the two young men in front of him.

His eyes were full of relief:

"Alright, then you two go there."

Remember, when you arrive at Baohetang, be a little sweet-talking.

Don't look so hasty and impulsive.

Make sure you find out the prices and market conditions carefully.

Go quickly and come back quickly.

Shunzi and Qiangzi responded in unison:

"Alright, Dad!"

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Lu Qingqing quickly gave instructions:

"Shunzi, Qiangzi, after you get there,

Besides asking about the acquisition price,

We also need to find out about Baohetang's demand for Ziling ginseng.

Let's see if they accept our artificially cultivated Ziling ginseng.

This is extremely important for our future plans.

The two nodded hurriedly and then left in a hurry.

However, they turned back at the last minute, and Shunzi said:

"Dad, how about we go to town at daybreak tomorrow?"

Visibility is poor when traveling at night.

It would be troublesome if it caused any delays.

After a moment's thought, Village Chief Li nodded in agreement:

"Okay, let's set off first thing tomorrow morning."

You should all get a good rest tonight and recharge your energy.

This matter is of utmost importance and cannot be allowed to fail.

He looked at Shunzi and Qiangzi with expectation in his eyes.

It seems to be conveying a sense of responsibility and trust.

Shunzi and Qiangzi sensed their father's earnest expectations.

They responded in unison:

"I understand, Dad! Don't worry."

We will definitely complete the mission.

After saying that, the two looked at each other, their eyes filled with determination.

Lu Qingqing smiled and said:

"I went to Baohetang tomorrow."

Once the purchase price and market demand for this purple ginseng are clarified,

Now we feel much more confident about artificial cultivation.

Before we knew it, night had fallen.

The thick darkness, like ink, permeated the entire village.

The group sat around the table, enjoying their dinner.

As they discussed and exchanged ideas,

The matter has gradually come to a conclusion.

Just then, a clear neighing of a horse rang out.

It broke the tranquility of the night.

Subsequently,

Lin Yunlan, dressed in official uniform, then came into everyone's view.

As soon as Lin Feng saw Lin Yunlan coming,

A warm smile immediately appeared on his face.

He hurriedly stepped forward and said:

"Yunlan, what brings you here?"

Are you worried about Qingqing?

We've pretty much finished discussing this matter.

I'll be back right away.

Lin Yunlan blushed slightly.

Looking somewhat embarrassed, he quickly explained:

Uncle Lin Feng,

My dad sent me to pick you up and take you back.

It's so late, he's worried about your safety on the road.

As he spoke, his eyes searched through the crowd.

After seeing that Lu Qingqing was safe and sound,

I breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Lin Feng turned to face Village Chief Li and said sincerely:

"Brother Li, let's call it a day then."

This matter has many details and can't be rushed.

We can discuss any new developments as they arise.

We'll come back tomorrow afternoon.

"Also, let's see how things went with Shunzi and Qiangzi's inquiries at Baohetang."

Village Chief Li smiled and nodded, responding warmly:

"Alright, Brother Lin, take care on your journey."

With your help and suggestions, I feel much more at ease.

I'm really looking forward to your arrival tomorrow.

As he spoke,

He personally escorted Lin Feng, Lu Qingqing, and Lin Yunlan to the door.

The group walked and talked.

At this moment, Shunzi was very perceptive.

Seeing the herb basket that Lu Qingqing had placed to the side,

Hurry over there,

They carefully placed it on the oxcart.

Looking at Shunzi's actions, Lu Qingqing said gratefully:

"Shunzi, thank you."

Shunzi scratched his head and smiled憨厚ly:

"Miss Lu, don't be so polite, it's nothing."

Lin Yunlan quickly walked to Lu Qingqing's side.

He gently helped Lu Qingqing onto the oxcart.

The movements were gentle and careful.

Once Lu Qingqing was settled in her seat,

He then turned and walked towards his horse.

He nimbly flipped himself onto his horse.

At this moment, Lin Feng was already seated in the driver's seat.

He held the reins in one hand and looked back at Village Chief Li.

He said with a smile:

"Village Chief Li, please wait a moment."

We're off now, see you tomorrow.

Village Chief Li stood still, waved his hand, and said:

"Alright, Brother Lin, be careful on the road."

I'm really looking forward to your arrival tomorrow.

Lin Feng gently flicked the reins, and the oxcart moved slowly forward.

It makes a "creaking" sound.

Lin Yunlan rode his horse alongside the oxcart.

A horse and an ox cart drove together toward Linjia Village.

After Lu Qingqing and Lin Yunlan returned home,

Lin Yunlan was just about to speak to Lu Qingqing,

Chunlan and the others immediately surrounded them.

Chunlan looked concerned.

His gaze swept over Lu Qingqing, looking her up and down.

He asked anxiously:

"Miss, you're finally back!"

Did we encounter any danger in Lijia Village today?

We were so worried at home.

The other maids echoed this sentiment.

Qiuju frowned and said:

"Yes, miss, you've been out for so long."

There was no news at all; our hearts were in our throats.

Dongmei quickly stepped forward to help Lu Qingqing up, and said:

"Miss, please don't stand there."

"Go inside and rest; you must be exhausted from the journey."

Lin Yunlan watched as the maids showed such concern for Lu Qingqing.

A pang of sadness welled up inside me for no apparent reason.

It felt like someone had taken away some of the attention from his own private territory.

But soon,

That slight pang of jealousy was replaced by a feeling of satisfaction.

After all, these maids genuinely cared for Lu Qingqing.

This made him feel at ease.

He silently walked to the side.

He gently put down the heavy basket on his back.

What was in that basket?

These are the herbs that Lu Qingqing painstakingly searched for in Lijia Village.

He skillfully rolled up his sleeves.

Carefully, they took the herbs out of the basket one by one.

Neatly arranged on the table,

Using the knowledge he had learned from Lu Qingqing,

They began to categorize the items systematically. ...
