Chapter 18: A Bird?
Min Zhitai and Doctor Qi both frowned, glanced at each other, thought for a while, and didn't seem to have heard of this medicinal herb.
Lin Hui said with a smile: "It's just that there is no convenience, the names of these medicinal materials, many of them are more than one thing, and it is not easy to distinguish them." What I know is only what the master said, but I'm afraid that it is not called Sanqi here. If you look back and see Sanqi, bring it to your medicine cabinet for detailed reference, there must be one. ”
Min Zhitai nodded, thinking that it should probably be the case, medicinal materials do often have aliases, such as making a gentleman, and he is also called Liuqiuzi, Shi Junzi, Wushuozi, Suoziguo, Dongjunzi, Sick Mandarin and many other names. This smell is called the medicinal material of Panax notoginseng by Mr. Lin, and it may be that Panax notoginseng is just another name elsewhere, so there is no way to catch the medicine on the medicine cabinet.
You can't talk nonsense, and you can't take medicine indiscriminately. The names of the medicines are strange and varied, I don't know if it's strange, don't mess around.
Everyone exchanged some experience in the debate of facial paralysis, and Lin Hui said goodbye under the constant urging of Huang Houdong's impatient gaze.
When I got the money for the medicine and went out to take a look, I really didn't know it, and I was shocked when I saw it. It turned out that the medicinal materials listed by Lin Hui were loaded into two carts. Lin Hui saw a lot of medicinal materials, so she simply didn't go to other medical centers, and decided to go back with the car, make a few flavors of medicine first, and then talk about it, anyway, she was not in a hurry to teach acupuncture.
Huang Houda also suddenly appeared. It turned out that he and Min Zhitai knew each other, and when he saw Min Zhitai appear, he avoided it, so as not to make everyone embarrassed and misunderstood.
The Min family pharmacy very considerately sent a carriage to pick up these people, and they fell behind the cart loaded with medicinal herbs and walked together.
The saddle is seated on opposite sides. After getting into the car, Huang Houdong half-lay down very unimpressively, straightened his legs, and cocked his feet to Lin Hui's side. After a few chirps, the kid grinned and said, "How is it?" I did a good job just now, didn't I? ”
Lin Hui moved, pushed away from his feet, and glanced at him: "I said, if you don't have it, you ran over to cause something, and you really had a heart." ”
"If you don't have an idea, how can you tell if it's good or bad? Just buy and buy medicinal herbs in a decent manner, and you can see that it is famous there! Saying that, Huang Houdong sat up straight and leaned his head forward: "Do you see it, the medicine boy, what is Wu Jia's, should be specially designed to deal with troublemakers." It's a pity that he met my troublesome ancestor, so he couldn't bluff. ”
Lin Hui knew that this seventh young master of the Huang family could stand out among the many grandchildren of the Huang family, in addition to taking advantage of the long house, he must also have some ability.
A person who goes on a rampage and causes trouble will not be appreciated by the official book. Mrs. Huang is by no means a vegetarian. Huang Houdong looked at a gentlemanly look, in fact, it would never be so simple, and he pushed himself out at the right time, not necessarily without weighing his own catties.
Although you have been used as a gun once, it can also be a good thing to be weighed, which shows that people have the heart to make friends with you.
Lin Hui felt as if she was a little Ah Q, hehe.
As soon as the car walked out a short distance, it was met by a convoy of medicinal herbs. There are more than 20 of them.
The herbs are all wrapped in hemp and covered with waterproof weeds.
Lin Hui sniffed, it was ephedra.
This one...... Come two cars!
The person who escorted the medicinal herbs was a very clever young man, who discussed a few words with the people on Lin Hui's side, and quickly beckoned the two cars at the end of the team to turn around and leave with them.
It's just that the money for the medicine can't be settled on the spot, but a receipt list is written, which is considered a credit account, and someone will be sent to the counter to settle it when I go back.
There are rules for this, and escort and trading are strictly separated, otherwise the medicinal herbs will be sold at will on the road, and there will be considerable disadvantages. However, for some customers, credit is acceptable.
Huang Houdong didn't understand it at all, he just thought it was just adding a medicinal herb. Huang Houda felt very strange.
This ephedra is a commonly used medicine, which has the effect of sweating and dissipating cold, relieving asthma in the lungs, diluting water and reducing swelling, and is often used for diseases such as wind cold and cold. Doctor Xiaolin is not opening a medical hall now, and it seems that it may not be open in the future, so what do you want to do with all this ephedra?
Lin Hui received Huang Houda's inquiring eyes, and said with a smile: "This cold is a common disease, and I have recently thought that if it can be made into ready-made pills, it will be convenient for the sick to use at home, and it is even convenient to buy it directly at the pharmacy without seeing a doctor." So buy more and see how it can be made into a medicine. ”
This is roughly equivalent to the concept of over-the-counter drugs, and it makes sense.
Of course, there is another purpose.
Ephedra is a source of ephedrine*xanthin. The well-known ephedra *xanthin has a notorious use, and Lin Hui plans to try it.
The heart of harming others cannot be used, and the heart of preventing others is indispensable.
Some things, prepared first, may come in handy at some point.
It is inconvenient for the cart to deliver medicinal herbs to go to a lively place, and it is interspersed with paths with few people.
Lin Hui was talking to Er Huang while looking at the street scene outside the car window.
Almost four or five streets away, a man suddenly caught Lin Hui's attention.
The man was quite tall and thin, walking on the street like a bamboo pole, but his appearance was not from the Central Plains, with a high nose and deep eyes, and he seemed to be from the Western Regions.
Strangely, he was carrying a ...... in his hand, no, he was carrying one upside down. Bird.
The bird was quite large, and it did not struggle much to carry it upside down, and its wings hung down, and it barely flapped once or twice, indicating that it was not dead.
Lin Hui's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly beckoned to stop.
The man, a little nervous, saw someone approaching, took two steps back, and lifted the bird a little higher in front of him.
Lin Hui made a curious look, arched his hand and said: "This brother, Xiao Keshi just passed by, and he didn't recognize this bird, so I want to ask, I don't know what kind of bird this is?" Is it possible to eat it? ”
Eat? The man's eyes lit up, he had originally wanted to take the half-dead bird out and sell it, and he didn't want to meet someone interested so soon.
"Of course you can eat it!" The man's original words were a little weirdly emphasized, "Do you want it?" A tael of silver is all it takes! ”
"A tael of silver?!" Lin Hui was surprised: "One tael of silver can buy twenty chickens!" I don't know if there are two catties of your bird's hair, even if it's game, it doesn't have this price, let's just eat fresh, there are so many there! He made it look like he was going back to the car.
The man was anxious and hurriedly said: "Seven points is fine, we have been raising this bird for several days, this is caught from the mountains, real game!" If it weren't for the fact that this bird somehow broke its wings, I am afraid that it would not have been caught. ”
"How many days? Come on, half-dead, hungry for days, right? Lin Hui continued to grind her teeth.
"Alas!" After being told by Lin Hui, the man sighed and said, "I have tried earthworms, reptiles, chickens, ducks, and fish, but this bird ancestor just won't eat it!" The temper is still very big! Our servants of Allah do not eat angry animals, but can only sell. Forget it, five cents of silver, you can take it! ”
Yes...... Hahaha, Lin Hui's heart overturned, she forced a smile, made a painful appearance, turned out a piece of loose silver, always looked like five or six points, and bought the bird.
This time, I've found a treasure!
