Manbao stuffed the money into the system, and Mr. Zhuang shut himself away for three days to read. It was not until the third day that he emerged to tell them, "I will take you to pay a visit to a teacher, and along the way, we can inquire about the prefectural school exams."
During these three days, Zhou Silang had taken out the glossy privet and dried ginger he brought in batches, visiting every pharmacy in Yizhou City and exchanging them for a tidy sum of copper coins.
Unlike Luojiang County, which had only one pharmacy, there were many pharmacies in Yizhou City; the largest three included Jishi Hall, which was just one among them.
With a few small pharmacies beneath them, Zhou Silang spent these three days asking around with two small cloth bags, finding these pharmacies and then inquiring about the price of glossy privet and dried ginger, taking note of the pricing in each establishment.
