Because he was in a hurry, Zhong Ziyuan's salary was very high. You must know that a meat bun on the market only sells for two yuan, and a full bowl of ramen with dried meat only costs three yuan, and a strong man works hard for a day, and the salary he gets is only 15 yuan, but at most 20 yuan.

Zhong Ziyuan has a very good reputation in this area because of his excellent medical skills and his enthusiasm to help others on weekdays. In addition, I can get a salary of 30 wen a day, and there are two old neighbors such as Xiucai Niangzi and Sister-in-law Zhuang watching, so the neighbors in the neighborhood are still very relieved to let the girls who are idle at home come to work here. Even if it's to make some rouge gouache money! So later, there was a situation where my sister was working, and my sister also came to ask if she wanted anyone.

After inviting someone, Zhong Ziyuan was relieved to go with Fu Bo and drive the carriage to buy medicinal materials. Qingdai and Cardamom temporarily took the girls to refine the remaining medicinal powder and honey into pills at home.

Zhong Ziyuan had a little more heart, she first went to the pharmacy that sold Peach Blossom Beauty Pills, and sure enough, as soon as the shopkeeper of the pharmacy saw her, he yelled at her to take the pills away, and she was not allowed to continue selling them in the pharmacy.

Zhong Ziyuan said a few good words with a smiling face, but the shopkeeper still had a stinky face, and there was no room for turning around. Zhong Ziyuan stopped pestering, and happily settled the account with him, bringing back the one hundred and ninety pills that were left from the sale.

She made a rough calculation and took back one hundred and ninety pills, and the remaining medicinal powder at home should be able to make two hundred pills, plus the stock of the fifty pills at home, that is to say. I also need to buy medicinal herbs that can make 2,600 pills. And the three hundred taels of deposit she has in hand at present, plus the four hundred taels of silver she has earned during this time, is far from enough money to buy medicinal herbs.

Zhong Ziyuan had a headache, and took Fu Bo to another pharmacy that sold pills on consignment. Who knew that the business of that pharmacy was actually very good. For the same two hundred pills, they sold one hundred and thirty, and the sales volume is still skyrocketing every day.

The shopkeeper was much more polite when he saw Zhong Ziyuan coming, not only happily settled the bill, but also served tea and snacks, and was very thoughtful. In the end, he dragged Zhong Ziyuan to ask for replenishment.

Zhong Ziyuan was also happy when he saw that it was selling well here, so he agreed with the shopkeeper to send the pills over after seven days. Although the shopkeeper thinks it is too long. But it's better than nothing, so I readily agreed.

Seeing this, Zhong Ziyuan put forward a request for some medicinal materials on credit, and the shopkeeper agreed after hesitating for a moment. He received six hundred taels of silver from her, but gave her a thousand taels worth of medicinal herbs. Zhong Ziyuan was happy. He promised to give him another thirty peach blossom beauty pills in private. So both sides were happy.

What Zhong Ziyuan didn't know was. She had just taken all the Peach Blossom Beauty Pills from the previous pharmacy when an uninvited guest came to the pharmacy. The shopkeeper remembered that she was the only woman who had bought ten pills. This woman's family runs a silk and satin village, although it is not a rich family, but the small life is very nourishing, so she will have spare money to buy this pill for two silver.

When the woman came to the drugstore, she looked at nothing else. I only said to the shopkeeper that I wanted to buy twenty pills from last time, and finished speaking. With a "pop", two new plum blossom silver ingots were placed in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper's face froze, and he said with a smile: "That pill is expensive, and the effect is not obvious, I have asked the doctor who sold it to take it back." If you don't take a look at other pills, the price of this Snow Muscle Pill is much cheaper than that Peach Blossom Beauty Pill. ”

"Phew." The woman took a sip of him and said unceremoniously: "Don't mention your Snow Muscle Pills, I have eaten at least hundreds of them, but the patches on my face show no sign of fading at all." It's still good to use this peach blossom beauty pill, although it's a little more expensive. But I only ate ten of them, and you see, not only do I have fewer spots on my face, but my complexion is not so yellow. ”

She frothed at the mouth as she brought her round face in front of the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper squinted her presbyopia and took a closer look, and sure enough, she could clearly feel that the yellow gas on her face had dispersed a lot, and those patches had also faded. Looking at this amazing change, even if he was not a doctor, he knew that as long as she continued to eat, her skin would have a good chance to return to the state it was in when she was younger.

Because they were all doing business on the same street, the shopkeeper was very familiar with the woman. Her mother's family runs a grocery store, has a few spare money, and has loved to apply fat powder since she was a sister-in-law. Later, when she got married, her husband's family opened a silk and satin village, and the business was doing well, and she never worried about the cost of silver. In order to tie up her husband's heart, she spent more time on dressing up every day.

It's just that she doesn't know that the fat powder that can instantly make her skin white and thin actually contains a lot of lead powder, which has great damage to the skin after long-term use. Sure enough, it didn't take long for her cheeks to be covered with dense light brown patches, and her complexion was slowly becoming dry and sallow.

In this way, not only did her husband look unhappy, but she began to stay home at night, lingering in Fengyue places every day, and even she felt unbearable. So she tried countless prescriptions for beautifying her skin, whether it was pills, powders, or decoctions, and spent a lot of money, but none of them could rejuvenate her skin. It wasn't until she came across a pharmacy that she bought new goods, so she bought these ten peach blossom beauty pills with the mentality of trying, but who knew that it was these ten little-known pills that gave her the biggest surprise.

Of course, the skin problems that make this woman extremely distressed are actually found in the vast majority of women in Chang'an City and even across the country. They dress up as much as they want when they are young, and after the age of twenty-five, these skin problems will gradually appear. Therefore, a woman's youth is always so short and precious, and only those who are capable will want to hold on to the tail of this youth.

At this moment, the shopkeeper's heart was not to mention how annoyed, how could he know that the effect of this pill would be so amazing. After so many years in business, he still has this knowledge. Now this Peach Blossom Beauty Pill is like a dragon that is still recuperating, and when the right time comes, it will soar into the sky. At that time, why worry about the wealth rolling in. thought that he had personally pushed out a way of wealth in his hands. He felt the urge to vomit blood.

The woman saw that there was really not even a single peach blossom beauty pill in this pharmacy, so she had to angrily grab the two plum blossom silver ingots, and said sarcastically: "Shopkeeper." I didn't expect that the medicine you have been selling for decades will also have a time when you look away. Such good things, you actually say that they are not effective? Tsk, you've capsized in the gutter this time. Forget it, since you don't have it here, I'll buy it elsewhere. It seems that he will have to go home and get more silver, and buy more for the future. In case it runs out of stock. With that, she grabbed the hem of her skirt and hurried out of the door.

There is a little second who saw the shopkeeper's face blue for a while. Bai was for a while, and wanted to pat the ass, so he deliberately said: "What a stupid woman, the pile of spots on her face." It's like sprinkling a layer of black sesame seeds on top of the pancake. Ten pills can be eaten? It was clear that the snow muscle pills she had taken earlier had worked. ”

The shopkeeper's chest was full of bad breath, and when he heard it, he slapped the guy on the head with his backhand. He blew his beard and glared angrily, "What do you know? Quick, get me the mule cart on set. I'm going to chase the God of Wealth back. Be quick"

Xiao Er's ass didn't shoot, and he was slapped and spitted on his face. He didn't dare to speak, only covered his head, lowered his head and agreed resignedly. Then he ran to the backyard to hitch the mule cart.

Zhong Ziyuan didn't know that the chickens and dogs were jumping here, and she and Fu Bo were carrying a cart full of medicinal herbs. I didn't return home until noon. As a result, as soon as I entered the hospital, I saw chickens flying and dogs jumping inside. Very lively. Qing Dai stood in the courtyard, pinching her thin waist, pointing at the girls in front of her and shouting angrily.

And those girls lowered their heads and twisted the corners of their clothes, and from time to time you pushed me, or you twisted me. From time to time, bursts of laughter erupted in the crowd. A few of the younger ones were still hiding behind and secretly licking their fingers.

Obviously, they are not afraid of Qing Dai's anger, and it is no wonder that Qing Dai is as old as them, and she has a festive round face, of course, she can't establish her prestige.

Seeing Zhong Ziyuan carrying a large bag of things into the door, Cardamom hurriedly came up to help. Zhong Ziyuan frowned, and asked puzzledly, "Didn't you hurry up and make a batch first?" What is Qingdai doing again? ”

Cardamom smiled bitterly: "No wonder Qingdai is in a hurry, I originally invited these girls to come to ask them to help." Who knew that they were very greedy, and they actually drank all the honey that was going to be used to refine the pills while Qingdai and I were preparing the medicinal powder. After saying that, she looked towards the well, Zhong Ziyuan subconsciously looked, and sure enough, she saw a few jars of honey poured on the side of the well, and look, the inside was already empty.

"What? The honey was all drunk. Zhong Ziyuan exclaimed and rushed forward, looking through them one by one, and sure enough, it was all empty, and there was nothing left. Those girls who were still giggling and didn't care about it were also frightened when they saw Zhong Ziyuan's anxious appearance. So they held their breath one by one, not daring to make any more noise.

These honeys are so expensive that they cost a jar of silver or two! And there is money and no land to buy, because those beekeepers are mobile and do not sell on the fixed street every day. They tend to sell wherever they go. Most of the girls who came to help had no money left at home, and it was good to be able to eat a full stomach, how could they have eaten such a sweet and expensive thing.

So they saw that Qingdai and Cardamom came out with three jars, but they were not greedy. As soon as the two of them left, immediately you took a sip, and I drank it all in one gulp. Of course, they also feel uncomfortable at the moment. Because the honey is so sweet, they drink too much and panic.

Can be refined into pills, this honey is essential. Because without honey, they would just be a pile of scattered powders that would not be formed at all. Honey not only tastes sweet, but also is a food rich in a variety of nutrients, which can complement some drugs in the powder, in short, it is an absolutely indispensable taste in the peach blossom beauty pill.

Fu Bo also came in with two large bags of medicinal herbs, he saw the three empty jars on the ground, frowned, and said, "It's useless to blame them now." Why don't we go back to the pharmacy and see if we can come back on credit. ”

"It's useless." Zhong Ziyuan shook his head in frustration and said, "There is indeed honey left in the pharmacy, but it is also used by them to make pills themselves, so they will not sell it at all, let alone on credit." ”

"So what to do? Without this honey, the pill simply wouldn't have been made. Qing Dai also stopped talking and came around, she looked at these honey jars one by one, and her heart was full of chagrin.

"Let me think about it, there must be a way." Zhong Ziyuan felt that there was a commotion in his head at the moment, and he really needed to calm down and think about it. She pinched one of the empty jars, her eyebrows so tight that they almost knotted. Fauber also kept shaking his head and sighing,

Those girls were just curious and greedy, stealing something to eat, but they never expected that they would actually cause trouble. Although they are not afraid of Qingdai and cardamom, they have always been in awe of Zhong Ziyuan.

Seeing that Zhong Ziyuan, who was usually amiable, was also stern at the moment, so uneasiness and fear finally rose in their hearts. The eldest of them began to move quietly towards the gate of the courtyard, and while Zhong Ziyuan and the others were not paying attention, she slowly moved out of the gate of the courtyard, and immediately ran away. ran one, there would be a second one immediately, and the third waited for Zhong Ziyuan and the others to subconsciously turn around, and they were stunned to find that there were only four people left in their own family in the originally full and very lively courtyard. At this moment, a gust of wind blew, rolled up a dead leaf on the vine, and flew alone in the yard, and the situation seemed unusually desolate.

Just when the four of them looked at each other, at a loss. The talented lady walked in with a wooden bucket of cornmeal rolls, half a pot of mustard and a dozen fried eggs. Sister-in-law Zhuang, who followed behind, carefully carried a large pot of mint mung bean soup. Sister-in-law Zhuang shouted as she walked: "It's time to eat, it's time to eat."

The two entered the courtyard, looked up, and were stunned. Sister-in-law Zhuang asked in surprise: "Why are you here, where did those girls go?" ”

"Don't mention it." Qing Dai said angrily: "They took advantage of me and Cardamom to prepare the medicinal powder, and ate all the honey that was going to be used to refine the medicine pills. I just said a few words to them, and they all ran away one by one, leaving such a mess. ”

Sister-in-law Zhuang was originally an anxious child, and when she heard this, she immediately "banged", put the basin with mung bean porridge in her hand on the stone table in the courtyard, and then rolled up her sleeves and shouted angrily: "These little hooves are really against the sky, stealing food doesn't count, they actually wiped their mouths and ran." See if I don't pull them all back one by one with big ears. ”

After saying that, as soon as she turned around, she walked towards the gate of the courtyard angrily. (To be continued......)
