Signing In For Eight Years, I Was Exposed As A Zillionaire! - Chapter 660

660 Herbs
Meanwhile, after Ye Xuan ran out of the villa area, he looked in the direction and jogged towards a road according to his memory of the Chinese medicine shop.

The Chinese medicine shop was not far from here. It was only a ten-minute walk, so running was even faster.

Ye Xuan also planned to get some Chinese medicine for his Fourth Sister to apply externally and treat her scald. Otherwise, if the scald was so serious, it might leave a scar on her fair hands.

That would be troublesome. After all, she was a girl. Who would want to leave a scar on their body?

After a while, he arrived at a small street. The Chinese medicine shop was located on the street and he saw it at a glance.

Hence, Ye Xuan ran over and entered the shop.

The moment he entered the shop, a strong smell of Chinese medicine entered his nose. The reaction to this smell varied from person to person. Anyway, to Ye Xuan, it smelled quite fragrant and he enjoyed it.

Behind the counter stood two old Chinese doctors in white coats and a few young female attendants. They were mainly helping out. There were still many customers in the shop at this moment. It was obvious that the business of this Chinese medicine shop was very good.

At this moment, many people were curious about Ye Xuan’s arrival. They watched as this little guy ran into the shop without any adult guardians behind him.

This couldn’t help but make the shopkeeper, an old Chinese doctor, feel puzzled. He pushed up his presbyopia glasses and looked at Ye Xuan, thinking that this child had come to the wrong place. After all, usually, such children wouldn’t come to a Chinese medicine shop.

He would just treat it as if Ye Xuan was here to play.

Many others thought so too. They all thought that Ye Xuan had gone to the wrong place or came to the Chinese medicine shop to play. There were usually many such children.

There were also some girls who saw that Ye Xuan was cute and came forward to squat in front of him. They smiled and spoke.

“Hello, little kid. Why are you at the pharmacy? Are you feeling unwell or something?”

“The little kid is so beautiful. How old are you this year? Do you have a girlfriend?”

Ye Xuan was also amused by these people teasing him. Then, he spoke to the girls.

“I’ve already had two girlfriends this year. It’s too annoying. I have to buy spicy sticks for them every day. The pressure is too great.”

As soon as he said this, everyone burst into laughter. They felt that Ye Xuan’s words were too childish and humorous.

The girls who teased Ye Xuan also laughed uncontrollably. Initially, she asked Ye Xuan if he had a girlfriend to tease him. Many adults liked to tease children like this.

Alternatively, they would tell the child that there was a worm at the bottom of their bowl when the child was eating. Then, the child would flip the bowl over and take a look. With a look, the food in the bowl would be emptied.
It was one of the few pleasures to tease children. However, teasing Ye Xuan this time made people laugh even more.

Then, Ye Xuan saw that the atmosphere was more harmonious, so he went to the counter and spoke to the young lady who was collecting the medicine.

“My sister was scalded by oil when she was cooking. I wanted to grab some Chinese medicine and apply it on her.”

The young lady who was grabbing the medicine raised her eyebrows. Just as she was about to ask how serious the scald was and then grab the medicine according to the illness, she saw Ye Xuan continue speaking.

“Help me take two grams of great burnet, Dahurian angelica, Chinese goldthread, cork-tree, purple gromwell, safflower, Asian knotweed, rice hulls, beeswax, borneol, and dog oil. I want 2.5 grams of safflower. How much is it?”

He mentioned all the Chinese medicine ingredients that were used to treat scalds in one go without any hesitation. He directly said this, stunning everyone. Even the old Chinese doctors were stunned.

After all, these Chinese herbs were relatively difficult to remember. Even an adult might not remember them, let alone a child. Even if they took a note, they would not be able to read it so smoothly.

Not only did this child remember it, but he also recited it especially smoothly. The key was that he recited all the Chinese herbs needed for scalds.

He recited it quickly and correctly. This really surprised the old Chinese doctors. They looked at Ye Xuan and didn’t know who this child was. He actually knew Chinese medicine so well.

The young lady who was grabbing the medicine was also stunned, but her professional ethics made her stunned for a moment before she reacted. Then, she picked up the small scale and started to grab the medicine.

She grabbed two grams of each herb. In a short while, she filled a large plate of Chinese medicine and wrapped it in paper. Then, she handed it to Ye Xuan and spoke.

“It’s a total of 232 yuan. I’ll round it off for you. I’ll charge you 230 yuan. Look at how cute you are.”

Ye Xuan grinned. She had given him a discount of two yuan…

However, he did not pay much attention to it. He took out cash and paid. Then, he carried the Chinese medicine bag and thanked her before leaving the pharmacy.

Many people watched as Ye Xuan disappeared into the streets. Then, someone started to talk about Ye Xuan.

“Hey, where did this child come from? Why does he know so many Chinese herbs? Furthermore, he’s so young. The key is that the medicine he mentioned seems to be quite right. It can really treat burns.”

“Maybe some doctor told him? Then, he remembered these herbs and came to buy them.”

“It’s possible, but it’s not very likely. I saw that when he said these medicinal herbs, he thought about it and said it himself. It doesn’t seem like he memorized them because memorizing them is very easy. He spoke very clearly and every pronunciation was very correct.”

“That’s true. In that case, did this child think of the Chinese medicine on his own? Or did the elders at home tell him?”

“I think it seems that this child knows about Chinese medicine. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to do this. It’s really strange. How can such a young child know so much about Chinese medicine? How did he do it?”

“It’s just that this is very strange. Could it be that his family is a family of Chinese medicine practitioners and has been learning this since he was young?”

“He’s seven or eight years old. Aren’t children his age playing all day long? He can actually do this. He’s indeed quite impressive. He’s really a genius.”

“He’s very talented. He’s actually so proficient in Chinese medicinal herbs. He’s really young and promising.”

“It’s really not bad.”

…

Ye Xuan didn’t know that everyone was talking about him. He ran for a while with the medicine and reached home.

After entering the house, he did not say anything and ran straight into the kitchen. Fourth Sister Ye Chan and her best friend, Chen Bingyu, were still puzzled. They looked at Ye Xuan and did not know what he was doing.

However, they didn’t ask much. Who cared?

After entering the kitchen, Ye Xuan took out the ten or so medicinal herbs and heated up the pot. He poured a little sesame oil into it. When the sesame oil was 80% hot, he poured the first eight medicinal herbs into the pot to deep-fry. When the Chinese goldthread was dark brown, Ye Xuan nodded and poured in the purple gromwell afterwards.
