Chapter 294
Cansington was the capital of medicine.
Since North Cansington was next to Cansington, there were plenty of pharmacies here too. James and Thea strolled around the city and visited the most extensive pharmacy in North Cansigton, Primary Pharmacy. The pharmacy was large and very luxuriously decorated. A woman in a nurse’s uniform stood at the door to greet them.
The two walked inside.
Before entering through the door, they could smell the medicine.
“Welcome.”
The woman dressed in a nurse’s uniform stood at the door and smiled brightly. She greeted the couple with a smile and asked, “Is there something you two are looking for today?”
“We’re looking to buy wild ginseng.” Thea went straight to the point.
“Alright, this way, please.” The two came to a counter under the guidance of the nurse. There were quite a few gorgeously packaged boxes at the counter. The boxes were full of ginseng that had a pleasing fragrance.
“This is ginseng unearthed from White Moutain. It is over ten years old and costs about three thousand dollars.” Although Thea was unfamiliar with ginseng, she understood that a higher grade came with a higher price.
“Are there any higher grades?”
“Do you have a budget?” The nurse’s eyes lit up, and she asked after hearing the question.
“Of course. The more expensive, the better,” said Thea.
“Please follow me this way.” The nurse knew she had met a lavish customer and immediately led the two to the second floor. There were higher grades on the second floor. More people were gathered here compared to the first floor. Many nurses dressed in uniform patiently introduced various precious herbal medicines and their health effects to the customers.
After arriving on the second floor, the various wild ginsengs were placed in front of the two ranging from 10,000 to 100,000 dollars,
Thea could not tell the value but felt that they were too ordinary.
She knew the virtues of the Hills very well and understood that such ordinary things were not enough to please them.
“I- Is there anything more expensive?” asked Thea.
Upon hearing this, the nurse nodded immediately.
“Of course, of course.”
