After Qi Peng took the cloth bag from Ji Qingzhi, he didn't know what to do next.On the side shelf is a large bamboo basket for drying medicinal herbs. It is made of bamboo and has certain holes to facilitate air circulation. What Ji Qingzhi did before was to grab a handful of medicinal herbs from the cloth bag and put them on the basket, sorting them out. Keep the good ones there, put the bad ones aside, and throw away some impurities, such as branches, sand, etc.

Ji Mo is proficient in doing this kind of thing, and after responding, he called Qi Peng to move down the basket first, "There are stools here, let's sit on the stools and do it."

If you want to do this kind of work carefully, it will take a long time, so it is better to sit comfortably.

"Ah."

Qi Peng responded, holding the cloth bag containing the medicinal materials tightly in his hand, and then went to get the basket down, but it was not heavy, and some medicinal herbs had already been put on it, and it was Ji Qingzhi who put it on. Let them know what to choose.

This herb is nothing else, it is Zifengteng, also known as Yuanyangteng, one stalk and two flowers, it is very easy to recognize, every spring, I often receive these, the quantity is large, the price is cheap, and the efficacy is very common , clearing heat and eliminating pathogenic factors is always inseparable from it. Anyone who feels hot can use it to treat diseases, and it can relieve one or two of them.

Zifeng vine grows in one piece, and it feels like it is all over the mountains and plains. Few farmers plant it, and most of them go to the mountain to pick it when the time comes. The picked ones are often mixed with weeds and wild flowers, and they are all stuffed into the cloth bag. It looks like a big bag, and when you pick it up, there are not many good-looking ones.

That is to say, this kind of medicinal material is cheap, and it is not as good as ginseng and other products. The good ones can be used, and the broken ones can also be used. Even blackheads do not affect the use.

"Pick this kind, like this one, it can be used. If it's like this, it's okay, put it aside first, and talk about it later."

Ji Mo asked Qi Peng to sit next to him, and gave him some pointers. This wind vine is the most important thing for its flowers. If there are leaves in it, it can be used, but the effect is not as good as flowers, and it is almost useless alone. Only flowers can be used. is truly valuable.

However, pickers probably want more weight, or they have big hands. In this cloth bag, there are many flowers and leaves. Almost every flower is accompanied by one or two thin leaves, and there are also vines attached, which seems to be given directly. It's like pulling the root, they are not afraid of the extinction of the mandarin duck vine, it is really this herb that is too adaptable and grows too easily.

Every time around this time, the Ji Family Medical Center can receive a large number of Zifeng vines, which need to be dried. These days are the busiest. This is why Ji Qingzhi accepts apprentices at this time. It is also good to have more people to help. of.

This kind of work actually has no technical content. If you pick two or three according to the appearance, you will know how to choose. Put the same ones on and throw out the different ones. There is nothing complicated.

Qi Peng is not stupid, he still has a little foundation, and he knows several kinds of medicinal materials. He listened to Ji Mo telling him, and his hands were not slow. Put the good ones in the basket, and put the broken ones aside for the time being if you can't see the pattern and can't recognize them.

"This medicinal material also needs to be graded."

Ji Mo raised his head and glanced, Ji Qingzhi was already ahead, no matter whether there was someone in front of him or not, it was always good to have someone in front of him, he turned his eyes back, landed on the medicinal material in his hand, and explained it to Qi Peng in detail. The saying of "waiting" did not come from him, as if the ginseng can be divided into different grades depending on the quality, the medicine industry has long been divided.

Those precious medicinal materials all have such a classification, only ordinary ones, and there is also a division of upper, middle and lower, but those usually do not fall on this wind vine, it is too common, too common, and it lacks a certain kind of medicine. In terms of value, if you pick the good ones, it won’t be expensive, and if the bad ones have the same utility, they won’t be cheaper.

I have always bought medicinal materials based on their efficacy, not their appearance.

Ji Mo is more meticulous. Ever since he started sorting medicinal materials, after completing the prescribed tasks, he will always divide them into more detailed ones, and keep the good ones for his own use, or for big customers, not to mention, Let outsiders look tidy and comfortable, and you can get more rewards.

It's a pity that I haven't met a few big clients for this real little wisdom in life. It made Ji Mo's thoughtful investment secretly, and Ji Qingzhi laughed at it. Now someone can listen to it.

Qi Peng didn't know the depth, when he heard the senior brother Ji Mo tell him, he listened seriously, and followed Ji Mo's example, put the good ones together, let alone sort them out like this, and compare the mess in the cloth bag , It is really refreshing at a glance.

The yard is not big, and there is not much distance between the inside and the outside. Ji Qingzhi, who was watching the prescriptions at the shop in front, shook his head helplessly when he heard the voices of the two people behind him. His son is always so reasonable.

The cook and the helper do not live here, which is a bit like a modern part-time worker. The cook comes here every day to take care of a meal at noon. Ji Qingzhi only cooks and buys vegetables. She only uses what she has. The dishes are just enough, and occasionally I encounter something that I can’t cook, and it’s very straightforward. I just tell Ji Qingzhi that I can’t cook it. At that time, maybe Ji Qingzhi will let her leave it, and Ji Qingzhi will cook it himself in the evening .

After eating at noon, Ji Qingzhi will close the shop temporarily, go to the street and buy some "discounted dishes". If there are still people selling the dishes at noon, they will definitely not be sold, and the price will be reduced Dealing with it, because Ji Qingzhi often goes shopping, and there are those who are familiar with him, they will leave him a handful or two of seasonal vegetables, so that he is not empty-handed. After a long time, Ji Qingzhi will also send some convenient replacement tea leaves for brewing Give the other party the medicinal herbs, this wind rattan is a kind that is very suitable for poor people to drink as tea.

When eating in the evening, they either eat the leftovers from noon, or add one or two new dishes. In the past, Ji Qingzhi cooked it by himself, and the helper is not responsible for this. Like the cook, she only comes over in the afternoon Clean up the house, take away the clothes that need to be washed, and then send the clean ones over. If there is any sewing, you can also entrust her.

Because there is no hostess in the Ji family, neither the cook nor the helper stay here for a long time, let alone overnight. When Ji Mo was young, he still didn’t know what was going on. Always substitute.

It was only later that I realized that this ancient man was already very economical, and it seemed that the superiors did not allow people to be bought and sold, so they signed contracts with each other. Adoptive mother, this adoptive mother is actually a maidservant, including nurses and the like, can be called a foster mother.

This kind of people exploited a loophole in the contract and extended the time of the contract of living, to a contract of 50 years, 60 years and 100 years. In this way, it is said that it is a contract of living, but it is actually no different from a contract of death.

In order to deal with the official policy, it is only said to be "adopted", which is the origin of the adoptive mother.

When it comes to the male servant, it refers to general references such as "old family" and "relatives at home", which are actually equivalent to adoptive mothers.

There are also advantages of being flexible and flexible, that is, the economy is more flexible, and even part-time workers have appeared in advance, like the cook, who only cooks lunch at Ji's house, but has breakfast and dinner from other people's houses , Even for lunch, including Ji's family, they also packed three neighboring houses, one early, one late, and one at the right time, thus earning three shares of money.

Due to the different time, the price is also slightly different. At that time, the ones were more expensive, while the early and late ones were relatively cheap. The Ji family was an early one. Come and go in a hurry, like rushing to the market.

The same is true for helpers. These helpers do not sign a contract with the Ji family, but have a general responsibility area similar to a guild. Hiring a middleman may seem a little troublesome, but it is easy to find someone to take charge, at least not afraid of luring wolves into the house and recruiting dirty hands and feet.

The quality of service is guaranteed.

It's like finding a cleaning company directly. They don't care what kind of people the other party sends, as long as they enjoy almost the same quality of service.

Not to mention, this concept is quite advanced.

In this case, the servants that Ji Mo often sees are different, and it is not difficult to understand.

Qi Peng was eating with them for the first time, and he was a little afraid to go to the table. Ji Qingzhi pointed out his position, and he sat down beside Ji Mo. He didn't say anything, he ate his own food, Ji Mo saw that he looked like a child, extremely cautious and shy, he couldn't bear it, he gave him a dish with chopsticks, saying that the dish was delicious, he didn't pay attention to it afterwards, and then When I watched it, I found that Qi Peng had been eating that dish all the time, and he still ate it side by side, not daring to fight with their chopsticks.

Seeing him like this, Ji Mo didn't say much, it's been a long time, and they are still not familiar with each other, it will be fine when they get familiar.

He has met not too many seniors, they all have different temperaments, like Qi Peng, they are shy at first glance, after two days of getting familiar with them, they will be fine, there is no need to preach, it will be even more scary to teach people.

Lunch was early, and after eating, Ji Qingzhi went to the street to buy vegetables, and Ji Mo asked Qi Peng, "Do you want to take a nap?"

"no, I'm fine."

Qi Peng waved his hands again and again.

Seeing this, Ji Mo didn't persuade him, and said: "Then let's continue to pack the medicinal materials. These newly collected medicinal materials must be dried out quickly, so as not to mildew and rot, and waste money in vain."

These herb pickers are somewhat reserved for their knowledge, but that is only when the medicinal materials are in their hands, that is, when they are delivered, they look good and are worth the price. If they don't pack them up quickly, problems will easily occur.

Insects, mildew, blackening... All these things must be checked carefully. When the medicinal materials come down, they will not be clean, so they must be cleaned up quickly.

"it is good."

I have been doing this all morning, and Qi Peng has already started, so he agreed without timidity, and packed the medicinal materials together with Ji Mo.
