"Elder, these items truly do not meet the standards. Although they are wild, their medicinal effects have already dissipated," Qi Zhengwei said after some thought.
"Director Qi, my husband and I have been selling medicine here for many years. Our family is in real trouble right now. Please, can you accept them out of kindness, even at a lower price?" The elderly man pleaded again upon hearing this.
Qi Zhengwei, seeing this, felt a bit moved. After a brief consideration, he said, "Elder, if that's the case, I'll accept them. But the most I can offer is seven yuan."
"Alright, seven yuan it is. Boss Qi, you truly are a good person," the elderly man hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
"Please instruct someone to bring in the herbs from outside as well. We'll weigh them and see how much there is," Qi Zhengwei said to the manager beside him.
"Alright." The manager nodded and promptly went out with two staff members.
In no time, two large bags of herbs were brought in and weighed.
