At this time, the tall young man who was the first to speak was a little unhappy, poked his companion He Sinan's shoulder with his fingertips, and said with a smile: "Didn't you get up this morning and didn't take medicine? Your head is not clear, is it? It is so easy to be fooled by others? It is not like you at all!"

He Sinan stretched out his hand and patted off his companion's fingers, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a smile: "No! I think his storytelling attitude is very sincere, and it touched me." I'm just willing to give him the old ginseng. What's going on?"

"You're too innocent. His sister is only three days away from surgery, and now she has come out to buy medicine, and the ghost believes it! This kind of lie that comes with just opening your mouth can only deceive you like this. The young man who spoke was unceremonious, and he didn't even seem to pay attention to his companion He Sinan.

He Sinan smiled and replied: "I don't care if he is true or not, I just want to give it to him, anyway, I don't have anything to lose, you are a fart!"

The little beauty on the side also nodded, and echoed: "That's it, we didn't buy that old ginseng for treatment, just to change the ticket, and it's the same if we buy something else." ”

Hearing both of them say this, the other one didn't say anything more, but there was always a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he seemed to look down on He Sinan.

Lu Menglin didn't expect that the other party just looked a little arrogant, but he actually had a good heart.

"Thank you!" Lu Menglin nodded at the young man surnamed He and said.

As a result, they didn't pay attention to him, turned around and left.

Moments later, across the street, the rumbling of the green Ramberghini sports car exploded into the street.

The young man in the store hurriedly weighed the medicinal materials that Lu Menglin and Bache Shitai had chosen, plus the thirty grams of two-hundred-year-old ginseng, and sent them to the counter together.

Lu Menglin didn't have much research on Chinese herbal medicines, so he picked it up and was about to leave, but he didn't know that the eight-car master on the side opened his mouth unexpectedly.

"Wait a minute, you put down the herbs first. The eight-car master said lightly.

Lu Menglin didn't know what to do, and hurriedly put the big bag of medicinal materials on the counter.

"Except for the old ginseng, the year is sufficient, and the medicinal power and year of the remaining herbs are not enough. The eight-car master said amazingly.

When these two sentences came out, Bao Zhilin's masters and boys were all stunned, stopped what they were doing, and turned their eyes around.

The young man who greeted them was also shocked, and said with a wry smile: "Auntie, our Baozhilin is a century-old shop, you don't dare to say these things casually." ”

Bache Shitai stepped forward, pointed at his hand, cut open the kraft paper wrapped in firewood, dipped the safflower powder in it on his fingertips, shook his head and said: "I didn't talk nonsense, the medicinal properties of your medicinal materials are insufficient, eat it according to the dosage of my prescription, the effect will not work." ”

At this time, a gray-haired old pharmacist came out of the medicine cabinet room, and he had just heard the words of the eight-car master and looked at her again.

"This eldest sister, what you said is not right!" the old medicine man shook his head and sighed.

The Eighth Car Master raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "How do you say it?"

The old pharmacist walked to the counter, first looked at the prescription in Lu Menglin's hand, and then shook his head and smiled: "You have been using this prescription for many years, it is an ancient prescription, and it is also prescribed by a doctor with very good medical skills." It's just that the medicinal materials at that time were all born and raised, unlike the current Chinese medicine firewood that is artificially cultivated, so is the medicinal effect the same?"

In ancient times, safflowers grew on cliffs, and it was not easy to pick, and the price was much more expensive. Now the safflower grows in the ground, and there is a harvest every season, and in addition, the farmers who grow herbs use all chemical fertilizers and pesticides in order to increase their yields. ”

As soon as the old pharmacist said this, Lu Menglin nodded again and again when he heard it, because this is the limitation of the times, and no human can stop it.

"Let's just talk about your prescription, if you don't have eight thousand taels of silver in the Qing Dynasty, don't think about matching this medicine. As a result, how much money will I charge you now? Except for the two hundred years of old ginseng, the other medicinal materials add up to only 8,000 yuan, do you think this is the reason?" said the old pharmacist happily.

"Yes, yes, our Bao Zhilin's medicinal herbs are already the best. It's like Bupleurum this flavor medicine, the medical book says that it uses the root into medicine, and many stores use Bupleurum seedlings as roots, and they are dug up and sold after a long year. There are also cinnamon branches, which are used as medicine, and when you go to other houses, they are all used as branches for medicine, and they are shoddy. The young man also said to the side.

Bache Master didn't expect this to be the case, so he had to frown and said, "According to your statement, medicinal herbs can't cure diseases, and Chinese medicine is going to be finished!"

The old pharmacist's expression darkened, and he shook his head and said, "That's not what I said, the medicinal properties of the medicinal herbs have decreased, and your prescription must also be changed." Traditional Chinese medicine can still cure diseases, but many ancient prescriptions are really ineffective. ”

"How can this be reasonable!" said the Eighth Wheel Master with hatred.

She has studied and learned all her life, martial arts can only rank second, medical skills are the first, she thinks that her medical skills are exquisite, and she is a rare big country in the world.

In fact, Lu Menglin can understand the frustration of Mrs. Bache, it is like burying his head in studying hard for ten years, but when he came to the college entrance examination, he found that the textbook had been changed and the scope of the exam was different.

"Old man, if we want to buy those wild medicinal herbs with medicinal properties, where can we buy them?" Lu Menglin asked very humbly.

The white-haired old pharmacist glanced at the young man in front of him, and said with a smile: "There is a place, I'm afraid you can't afford it!"

"How do you say it?" Lu Menglin suddenly became interested when he heard that there was a play.

The old pharmacist stroked his beard and said with a smile: "There is a place on Hong Kong Island that opens every three years, and all the real wild medicinal materials traded in it are said, and it is said that there is also the birth of the medicine king, thousand-year-old ginseng, He Shou Wu and the like, everything.

However, it is a place where the top rich and people with real status consume, so we ordinary people don't have to think about it. After all, there are still good things in this world, but you get what you pay for. ”

After the old pharmacist finished speaking, Lu Menglin suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked, "Where is that place, how can I get there?"

The eighth car master frowned too much, and as the saying goes, she stopped because she had no money, and the fact that she was a master outside the world did not mean that she had a lot of money, and this kind of place would cost a lot of money when she heard it.

The old pharmacist said with a smile: "This place is called Julong Pavilion, which leads the gathering of heaven and earth, and accepts the dragons of the four seas to offer treasures, and it is on a small island outside the roundabout. However, you have to be eligible to go to the island. ”

"What qualifications do you want?" Lu Menglin continued to ask.
