Behind me is the earth

Chapter 3 003. Zishi

Xiaowan usually slept in the west room in the yard. After working for a day, she had dinner and fell asleep while reading in bed.

Ren Pingsheng turned off the light for her, covered her with a quilt and walked out.

When he reached the front door and pressed his hand on the door handle, his right hand suddenly glowed with a faint golden light.

As the door was pushed open, the scene was no longer the same as before.

A room of about ten square meters appeared in front of him.

The room was empty at this time, with only a closet standing on one wall.

The closet is divided into several floors, each containing weapons such as crossbows, daggers, and recurve bows, food such as instant noodles, instant hot pot, and bottled water, as well as medicines such as disinfectant spray and portable medicine boxes, as well as outdoor batteries and solar panels. , mobile phones and other electronic products.

There were two pairs of clothes stacked at the bottom, as well as several protective suits, oxygen masks, and bottles of medical alcohol and disinfectant.

There is also a twenty-liter barrel of gasoline stored in the corner.

Ren Pingsheng moved the medicinal materials that had been packed at the door box by box to the room.

The originally empty room suddenly became full.

After closing the door to the room, Ren Pingsheng picked up the mobile phone on the closet. When the door opened again, the mobile phone, which had no signal service, found a signal.

And outside the door is no longer a small courtyard, but a room full of modern style.

As the familiar environment came into view, Ren Shengsheng's spirit became more relaxed.

"This transit space is still a bit small. Twelve square meters is equivalent to a cramped bedroom, and there is not much room for it."

Ren Pingsheng sighed while moving all the boxes in the space to the living room of the house outside.

As soon as the door of the room was closed, the faint golden light on Ren Pingsheng's right hand disappeared.

I glanced at the clock on the wall, it was nine o'clock in the evening.

Nine o'clock is already dark and silent in other worlds, but in modern society it is when nightlife has just begun.

I walked to the window and looked outside. The streets outside were busy with traffic. There was still no shortage of people walking on the streets in Zishi, where the autumn was getting colder.

Some have just gotten off work and are rushing home in a hurry; some are shopping leisurely and walking on the street; there are also men and women in love hugging each other, kissing in the street, and wreaking havoc on dogs, just like embarrassment, which is disgusting.

After Ren Pingsheng took a hot bath, he went to the kitchen to get a cup of hot milk and went to the master bedroom. After changing into comfortable pajamas, he first called his mother who worked with his father in the provincial capital, and then lay down. On the comfortable 1.8-meter bed, I chatted with a few familiar classmates and friends to connect with each other.

Finally, in order not to lose touch with society, I read the news as usual.

"Why did the boy disappear out of thin air? What is the problem..."

"Whether foreign new drugs are useful remains to be further observed..."

"The new rice product launch conference is scheduled for February 18 next year..."

"Southern Heavy Industries suddenly changed its leadership, and its stock price fell into a slump. The souls of shareholders asked: Why did chief engineer Ruan Tang suddenly leave? Can the 5.0 platform be launched as scheduled? We need an explanation!"

"Domestic exports continue to be sluggish, and the next economic focus will be here..."

I kept working until about ten o'clock when I felt tired after working for a long time.

Turn off the lights and have a good night's sleep.

At seven o'clock the next morning, the alarm clock rang, the bedroom curtains automatically opened, and it was already bright.

I brushed my teeth, washed my face and changed my clothes. It was already half past seven.

He took a comb and combed the hair that had reached his shoulders. In the mirror, although he had long hair, his handsome face had three-dimensional features and clear outlines. He casually took a sandalwood hairpin, pulled up his hair, and tied it into a bun on the back of his head.

Paired with his linen navy blue loose clothes, he looks quite free and easy-going, elegant and easy-going.

After applying the facial cream, Ren Shengsheng rubbed his chin, looked at the handsome boy in the mirror, and couldn't help but admire: "Things are the same and people are different. He is the only one who is handsome."

I have been exercising for more than two months, and the changes have been huge. My body, which was originally puffy and fat, is now full of energy.

Wearing a mask, we took the elevator down to the first floor. Outside was a bustling street market. It was the rush hour at this time, and the breakfast shop was doing a booming business, serving hot steamed dumplings and fragrant scallion pancakes.

It is the smoke and fire in the world that most comforts the human heart.

"Brother Li, two pieces of meat roasted on fire and a bowl of tofu poutine."

Ren Pingsheng casually walked into a nearby store and shouted.

"okay."

Over there, Brother Li's wife, who had just walked through the door, responded.

The area where Ren Pingsheng lives belongs to the old city of Zi City. Although the buildings are not as grand as those in the new city to the west, the liveliness is not comparable to that in the new city.

He lives in a five-story house along the street. Although it was built a few years ago, Zi City's municipal management has been good in the past two years. It has just been upgraded and renovated in the past two years. Whether it is sound insulation, elevators, electrical, etc., there are no problems.

The exterior of the building has been improved and brightened, making it bright and beautiful; the old community inside the building has been renovated, making living very comfortable.

The streets outside are also separated from motor vehicle lanes and pedestrian trails. Landscape plants, children's playgrounds, small bridges and flowing water, all complement each other as you move and change scenery, demonstrating the direction of this old industrial city towards a park city with a smart and livable human environment. Determination and confidence in development.

"Brother Ren, I heard that the two rooms in your house have been renovated? Are they rented out or something?"

At this time, Brother Li came over holding sesame cakes in his left hand and tofu buns in his right hand.

"No, if I rent it out, I have to stay close to you, Brother Li. I'm planning to open a store myself."

Brother Li had told Ren Pingsheng before that his small shop was only over 50 square meters, and his business had been booming in the past few years. He wanted to expand his restaurant and build a comprehensive Chinese restaurant, so he fell in love with Ren Pingsheng. The 200-square-meter store of Ping Sheng's family.

"What kind of business do you want to do, brother?"

Brother Li was slightly wary.

"I plan to open a pharmacy."

Ren Pingsheng replied.

Brother Li smiled and said: "Then I wish my brother a prosperous business and abundant wealth. I will go and get busy first."

Brother Li's breakfast shop is really busy.

After breakfast, Ren Pingsheng wandered to his store.

The store has been renovated and looks antique.

However, only one of the two storefronts has been decorated for the time being, and the other storefront is still locked.

It was previously rented to a barbecue restaurant. Due to the recurring epidemic this summer, the owner didn't make much money. In the fall, business was not good, so the owner simply canceled the lease and returned to his hometown.

"I hope that people in the world are not sick, so why not put medicine on the shelf to produce dust."

There is a pair of woodcut couplets on both sides of the store door, which blends in with the antique decoration style.

Take out the key and open the door. The counters, shelves, electronic scales, cashiers, cashier systems, etc. are all there.

Everything is ready, all that is left is the east wind.

Ren Pingsheng spent more than an hour moving boxes of "Dongfeng" down from the upstairs where he lived.

It was nearly nine o'clock by this time.

There was a sound of wind chimes, and the store door was pushed open, and a woman in her twenties and wearing a windbreaker walked in.

The woman looked at Ren Pingsheng who was washing his hands and was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect that the owner of this store was so handsome and had a different temperament. This dress and temperament complemented this antique drugstore.

"Hello, the store has just been renovated and has not yet opened."

Ren Pingsheng wiped his hands and said with a smile.

"Well, hello boss, I'm here to apply!"

The woman took off her sunglasses and smiled.

"Ms. Banxia?"

Ren Pingsheng asked.

"It's me, my surname is Pan and my real name is Pan Xia."

Panxia smiled and stretched out his right hand.

"Well, I've seen your resume, and your online name Banxia fits our Chinese medicine store very well."

Ren Pingsheng stretched out his right hand and shook Pan Xia's hand gently, inviting Pan Xia to sit on the wooden sofa chair aside and poured two glasses of water.

"It says on your resume, Banxia, ​​you were originally a nurse at our regional Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. You grew up in a family of Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners. Your grandfather and father are both Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors. Why did you choose to come to me?"

"To be honest, of course it's because the salary you offer is high, and the area is far away from home. Furthermore, I just graduated and there is no establishment in the hospital."

Banxia spoke very honestly.

Of course, under the current situation, working overtime every day was exhausting, which was also one of the reasons that prompted her to leave her job and change jobs. She was afraid that her future boss would dislike her for not being able to endure hardship, so she selectively did not say anything.

Ren Pingsheng nodded.

The salary of 8,000 per month, five insurances and one housing fund he offered was indeed far higher than the salary of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in the adjacent area.

Next, Ren Pingsheng asked Banxia to work with him to sort the medicines in the boxes one by one and put them on the shelves and medicine boxes.

During this process, Ren Pingsheng also realized that Pinellia ternata was quite good at judging the types and years of herbs, and was much better than him!

At least, there is nothing wrong with being a shopping guide and store manager of a small pharmacy.

This made Ren Pingsheng very satisfied.

"Ban Xia, I just talked about it online. Can you introduce an old Chinese medicine practitioner with a practicing certificate to be here two days a week?"

Ren Pingsheng asked.

"That's my grandpa."

Banxia had an unexpected surprise for this store.

If these medicinal materials are not bad, they are all wild medicinal materials. Just looking at the quality, they are much better than those artificially cultivated!

Moreover, there are many great medicines that are very old, including precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum!

Many of them can be used as treasures in other traditional Chinese medicine stores.

Although the categories are not comprehensive, the value of this pharmacy is definitely not low!

Looking at this young boss again, not only is he handsome, but just looking at these medicinal materials, his worth is definitely extraordinary.
