Chapter 2646: Chapter 1523

After Ding Ning left the campus, he found a pharmacy in another area of the town, intending to sell a ginseng root there.

Today, he plans to sell ginseng in several pharmacies, hoping to make money before the news spreads.

There are many ginseng roots over 100 years old in the courtyard, and these ginseng, nurtured by spiritual energy, are naturally better than the wild ones outside.

They have better medicinal properties too.

Ding Ning used his thoughts to dig up a few of the youngest ones, and due to spatial augmentation and the nurturing of spiritual energy, even the youngest ginseng is at least 100 years old.

These ginsengs indeed have flowered and seeded, though some seeds have been collected.

There is a vast expanse of ginseng fields.

Ding Ning plans to sell these ginseng roots in many cities before going to school, exploiting the time lag before others know about them, making money enough to buy several houses in the Capital City.

Except for the pharmacy familiar with his area, which he didn’t visit, he went to all other pharmacies to sell.

The ginseng Ding Ning sells fetches 1500 RMB per root in one city district; today’s earnings totaled 4500 RMB.

He sold three ginseng roots.

Each time Ding Ning sells ginseng, he uses dissolvable ones, wears a low-level Magic Artifact Clothes, and dons an Illusion Mask over his face.

The clothes keep changing, and his face morphs in front of others endlessly.

Transforming into different youths, Ding Ning avoids being seen as a young girl; each time he leaves the pharmacy, he shakes off those who try to follow him.

These hundred-year ginseng in this small county can only sell for over 1000 RMB, but in larger cities, they might fetch higher prices.

Ding Ning doesn’t worry as he is selling ginseng in multiple cities.

As long as he can sell them for a bit more in a short time, he can buy a house where he studies.

Ding Ning then returned home, unexpectedly hearing gossip from the elderly residents in the compound.

They were talking about the Scumbag Man Xiao Jianhua and the cheap woman Xiao Yuhuan. Upon returning, they’ve been frequently visiting the toilet, possibly due to eating something bad.

They were also weak from diarrhea.

They’ve just gone to the clinic in the compound to get some medicine.

Ding Ning chuckled secretly upon hearing these talks, greeting the seniors politely.

When asked, he said he went to school; when asked about his grades, he said they’re not very good.

But others reassured him, saying that not getting into university doesn’t matter since Ding Ning has a job, suggesting perhaps working instead of aiming for college.

Some were eyeing his job, considering after the college entrance exam, many have returned to the town.

In some places, a batch of people had returned to town, while in others, people went back after the exam started.

About the time the admission letters are sent out, more people would return to town, and without a job, some might be worried.

But this batch of students is not worried about having no college to attend or not passing and having to go to the countryside.

Ding Ning didn’t mention having sold his job, saying instead he’d wait until the admission letters arrive to decide whether to try for college.

And said that during this time, he’d buy some supplies from nearby villages since now he only has some grain, which is insufficient.

He’s hungry.

The elders advised her to be careful, it’s unsafe for a young girl to exchange food alone.

Better to go together with other residents.

Ding Ning said he planned to gather wild vegetables and cook them with grain.

However, in this southern region, there are not many wild vegetables now, as autumn has set in.

There are not many fruits in the mountains either, but seizing the autumn harvest in the countryside might allow exchanging for some grain.

Ding Ning was just looking for an excuse, wanting to acquire more farming varieties, though she had to go to the countryside to exchange some supplies.

Actually, Ding Ning wants an excuse to visit other counties, to go to the provincial capital.

To sell valuable supplies and gain more wealth.

However, such actions naturally can’t be revealed to others, often entering and exiting the compound with an excuse.

Cannot let others gossip about him roaming around.

If someone were to fabricate reasons about his whereabouts.

But if she doesn’t appear, someone might invent reasons for concern, or report to the police.

Ding Ning doesn’t wish for unpleasant words at this juncture.

Still, she returns from wherever she goes every day.

Trying various ways to control someone, making them slightly ill without backlash.

Perhaps it was due to the Koi Carp Talisman, the prior laxatives given at school didn’t result in backlash either.

Returning to her front door, Ding Ning saw from a distance Xiao Jianhua and Xiao Yuhuan seated on a long bench outside her house.

Did they stabilize after the medication?

Indeed, as main characters, they managed with such a hefty dosage without needing hospital treatment.

Aware of their protagonist status, she gave them heavier doses compared to others.

These two looked over at Ding Ning, noticing her hands empty, their gaze somewhat disappointed.

Perhaps after the laxatives, their faces showed traces of fatigue.

“Yuhuan, didn’t you say you were going to the movies? Back so soon?”

Ding Ning feigned ignorance of their medication incident.

“Ding Ning, you’re speaking now? Where did you go? Didn’t you say we’d walk around town together? Where did you go, coming back only now.”

The cheap woman Xiao Yuhuan spoke scrutinizingly, always sensing Ding Ning has changed.
