The happy little days of the Ye family

The village chief asked excitedly: "Do you also accept fresh medicinal materials?"

Although the people in the village know some simple processing techniques, they do not know the more difficult ones. If the medicinal materials are not processed properly, the efficacy will be poor, and the medicinal materials will naturally not be sold at high prices.

Tang Xiaojing's voice rose slightly, "What I learned in the pharmacy before was to prepare medicinal materials. There are medicinal herbs in the mountain village, and I happen to know how to prepare medicinal materials. We can cooperate and make money together."

"Aconite, Pinellia ternata, Aracenia, Rehmannia glutinosa, Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora japonica, Polygonatum japonica, are these herbs fresh?"

These herbs can be picked from nearby mountains, but the people in the village don't know how to prepare them, so they go to waste.

Tang Xiaojing knew that the people in the mountains were xenophobic, so he deliberately showed off, "Aconite, Pinellia ternata, and Araceae, these three herbs are toxic and need to be prepared using the copying method."

"Rehmannia glutinosa, Polygonum multiflorum, Sophora japonica, and Polygonatum japonicus. These four herbs need to be cooked using the method of nine steaming and nine drying. I collect all these herbs fresh."

Although Tang Xiaojing was young, he looked restrained and calm, and he was very knowledgeable when it came to talking about herbal medicines. The village chief did not dare to look down on him.

The village chief smiled brightly and said happily: "Boy Jing, please sit down for a while. I will inform the people in the village to bring over all the herbs. Can the fresh herbs be collected today?"

"We can collect whatever is prepared, whether it's prepared or fresh. It's best to dig the fresh herbs with the mud, so they can be stored for two more days."

"Also, I don't know if there is tiger bone wine or tiger whip wine in the village. I will accept this too."

Village Chief: "A few years ago, a tiger was shot in the village. The tiger whip has been sold long ago, but there is some tiger bone wine. I will go to the village to ask."

After speaking, the village chief hurriedly walked out.

Li Orion patted Tangshan on the shoulder and praised: "This boy of yours is quite capable. I have heard of this copying method and the nine-steaming and nine-drying method in drug stores, but we don't understand what's going on."

Tangshan was very proud, even the lines on his forehead were laughing.

Tang Xiaojing explained modestly: "Some herbs are toxic, and the copying method can reduce the toxicity of the herbs. The nine-steaming and nine-drying method can not only reduce the toxicity of the herbs, but also enhance the medicinal properties of the herbs."

"Nine steaming and nine sunning are methods such as steaming and drying to correct the properties of medicinal materials or increase the ingredients of medicinal materials, which can reduce the toxicity of medicinal materials and thereby better exert the efficacy of medicinal materials."

As he said this, Tang Xiaojing took out a Polygonatum japonica from the basket on his back.

"For ordinary Polygonatum japonica, dry it in the sun until the fibrous roots are dry and easy to break. When the inside of the rhizome changes from white to slightly yellow and slightly soft, rub it repeatedly until the fibrous roots fall off. When the rhizome becomes translucent and has no hard core, dry it in the sun again. The color is black. The cooked Polygonatum requires nine steaming and nine drying.”

Tang Xiaojing smiled and said: "The copying method and the nine-steamed wine drying method are more complicated. Just leave these trivial matters to the boy."

Li Orion knew that Tang Xiaojing also wanted to make money, but who didn't want to make money? It would be good if everyone made money together.

"There are specialties in the art. We still prepare the common herbs ourselves, and I will leave some precious herbs to you."

Tang Xiaojing thought for a while and then said: "I will probably receive a lot of fresh herbs today. I probably won't have time to go to Dashan Village these days. I will go there a few days later to teach you how to identify herbs and how to preserve fresh herbs."

Orion Li smiled cheerfully and said, "Don't worry, the people in the village have been busy picking the medicinal materials that shopkeeper Wang mentioned recently. It will probably last seven or eight days."

"If you encounter medicinal materials that you don't know how to prepare on the mountain, you can dig them out with the soil and send them to my house. I'm usually at home in the afternoon. If I'm not at home, you can go to Ye's house to find me."

Tang Xiaojing was bored at home alone. Ever since he got engaged to Ye Qingqing, he would run to Ye's house when he had nothing to do. Ye's mother and Mrs. Ye treated him very well, and Ye's mother even made delicious snacks from time to time to feed the children at home. .

Tang Xiaojing and the two puppies have gained a lot of weight under Mother Ye's feeding, and they feel a little taller. Yesterday, Ye Qingqing measured his size and said that he would make clothes for him.

Li Orion didn't notice Tang Xiaojing's absence and said cheerfully: "Aconite, Pinellia ternata, Polygonum multiflorum, and Huangjing can be found in the mountains around the village. I will talk to the village chief when I get back."

Tang Xiaojing and Li Orion chatted for a long time, and the village chief came over with a burly middle-aged man with a few scars on his face.

The village chief introduced to several people: "This is Hunter Yang, the most skilled hunter in our mountain village. He led people to hunt the tigers he hunted in the past few years."

Although Yang Orion had a smile on his face, the aura on his body was too strong, and Tang Xiaojing still felt a chill.

Orion Yang took out a jar and carefully placed it on the table. The jar was small and could hold about half a catty.

"This is tiger bone wine. In addition to tiger bones, there are many precious medicinal materials in it. It costs 65 taels per can, no bargaining."

Tiger bone wine is brewed with tiger bones, some other Chinese herbal medicines and high-strength wine.

Tiger bone wine has the effects of strengthening muscles and bones, strengthening waist and kidneys, and dispelling wind and cold. It mainly treats kidney deficiency and bone weakness, cold and pain in the lower abdomen, and weakness in walking. It is especially suitable for the treatment of wind, cold and pain, limb spasm, liver and kidney deficiency, weakness of waist and feet.

The most famous effect of tiger bone wine is to aphrodisiac, because tiger bone wine can nourish the kidneys, relieve general weakness and loss of sexual desire, and can also relieve the soreness and weakness of the waist and knees caused by kidney deficiency or insomnia and dreams. Increase kidney function.

The young master from a wealthy family often secretly sent people to the pharmacy to buy them, and they were very generous. When Tang Xiaojing was in the pharmacy, he also studied the medicinal materials for aphrodisiacs, but he didn't expect that they would be put to use today.

Tang Xiaojing opened the jar and found that the tiger bone wine was well prepared. The medicinal ingredients were very rich in flavor and the medicinal ingredients in it were also appropriate. 65 taels was not expensive. He could probably sell it for 80 taels of silver after he took it to the pharmacy.

Many Tang Xiaojings were too evil-hearted. He had a good relationship with Shopkeeper Wang, so he used the pharmacy's internal price. If Yang Orion had taken it to the pharmacy to sell it himself, he would probably only be able to sell it for more than 70 taels.

Tang Xiaojing wanted to accept the tiger bone wine, but he didn't have enough money. Tang Xiaojing only had 12 taels of silver, and with the money Tangshan lent him, he had a total of 30 taels. This was not enough.

Tang Xiaojing whispered to Tangshan and persuaded Tangshan to accept the tiger bone wine.

Tang Xiaojing and Yang Orion said: "The quality of this tiger bone wine is good, but the money I brought is still a little short. I will give you a deposit today and come back to collect the tiger bone wine in a few days. What do you think, Uncle Yang?"

Yang Orion looked fierce, but he was very talkative, "The village chief has told the people in the village to collect fresh medicinal materials. These fresh medicinal materials cannot be put away. You will collect the medicinal materials first today. I will keep this tiger bone wine for you." , I won’t charge you a deposit.”

"Thank you, Uncle Yang."
