Chapter Ninety-Four: A Gift from Master
After three rounds of drinking, Bai Jingxuan spit out a faint smell of wine, and said to Gu Ye, who was gnawing on the chicken leg on the side: "The affordable children's medicine plan you proposed really made our Jimintang gain countless reputations and profits. It's just that the benefits are all taken away by our Jimin Hall, and I feel a little sorry for Miss Gu. If it weren't for Miss Gu's insistence on hiding her name, she would definitely be able to become famous in one fight! ”
"This is the rule of our teacher, if we have never been a teacher, the medicinal materials we use cannot be marked by the name of the teacher and ourselves. Third Uncle Bai doesn't have to feel sorry for it. After I leave the school, you will return the honor to me! Gu Yelish gnawed on the chicken paws with relish and waved his hand absently.
Bai Jingxuan asked tentatively, "I don't know how much this children's medicine can provide for Miss Gu every month?" The first Jimin Hall in the state capitals is in danger of running out of stock. ”
Gu Ye thought for a while and said, "At present, I am the only one, and the number of medicines produced is not much. I plan to wait for the warm spring next year to find a few reliable people to form a pharmaceutical workshop specializing in the production of children's medicine......"
Bai Jingxuan was overjoyed when he heard this: "Great! If this children's medicine can be promoted throughout the country, it will be a good thing for the benefit of children all over the world! I, Bai Laosan, toasted the girl for the children. ”
Gu Ye picked up the soup bowl and said with a smile: "I'm young and weak, so I can't drink. But Uncle Bai's kindness was disrespectful at night, so he replaced the bar with soup! ”
"What a 'soup instead of wine', dry!" Bai Jingxuan laughed, drank the wine in the cup, and ate two mouthfuls of food before continuing, "However, forgive me Bai Laosan for reminding me that the prescription for children's medicine must be kept confidential and held tightly in the girl's hands." ”
Gu Ye nodded and said, "Don't worry, you know it in your heart." Thank you Uncle Bai for reminding me. ”
After dinner, Gu Ye took out the children's medicine he brought over and asked Bai Jingxuan to count it. The amount of children's medication this time was ten times that of the last time, which made Bai Jingxuan very happy.
For children's medicine, the price sold by Gu Ye to Jimintang is only one percent higher than the cost price. And the profit left to Jimin Tang is only so much that. After deducting the cost of transportation and operation, it can be said that Jimin Tong makes almost no money.
However, at this time, reputation and honor are far more valuable than profits. The reputation of Jimintang has gone out, the people have trusted, and the turnover of other medicines has also gone up. The turnover of the few branches that launched children's drugs in just a few days exceeded the amount of a month in the past. Not only did it create a miracle in the history of sales, but it also left those competitors far behind. This is something that Jimin Tang did not dare to think of before.
It is believed that with the promotion and popularization of children's medicine, Jimintang will be able to become a well-established pharmacy that can compete with time-honored brands such as "Baicaotang", "Baohetang" and "Tongjitang". The Bai family will also usher in their glory!
It was agreed with Bai Jingxuan that he would come to deliver the last batch of medicinal materials on the twenty-eighth year, mainly for children. He also put forward some of his own views on the pharmaceutical workshop, and Bai Jingxuan also gave feasible suggestions.
It wasn't until the third watch rang that Bai Jingxuan reluctantly left the guest room - Jimin Tang learned that Gu Ye's master and apprentice lived in seclusion in the mountains, so he specially prepared two exclusive guest rooms for them in the backyard. For Gu Ye, staying in a guest room is more comfortable than an inn, not to mention, it can save a sum of money, why not?
Early the next morning, Gu Ye took more than 280 taels of silver from Jimin Tang and went to purchase New Year's goods with a lot of money. There are many people in the family, and the purchase of grain is a must. Picking up white rice and white noodles, 200 catties each, yellow rice, glutinous rice, kidney beans, red beans and the like, I also bought about 20 catties - Aunt Yan said that pastries and the like, make them at home. Gu Ye naturally responded happily, Aunt Yan's craftsmanship is definitely better than the one bought in the town!
The cloth, the Jun family and the Chu family can't wear it out, so you don't need to buy it. Passing by the butcher shop, Gu Ye was eager to buy more, but was stopped by his grandfather. Before the festival, people who raised pigs in Qingshan Village and nearby villages would kill New Year's pigs. Not to mention that pork is cheaper than in town, and it also eliminates the fatigue of transportation.
In this way, there is not much to buy. Gu Yezhi went to the grocery store and bought a lot of spices such as oil, salt, soy sauce and sugar, as well as a lot of spices such as star anise, pepper, bay leaves, cumin, etc. Gu Ye didn't expect to be able to buy such a complete range of condiments!
It was her first New Year, and there were no fights, no strife, no mutants...... She also received the love of her grandfather and brother, and she had to celebrate it lively. Gu Ye walked around the vegetable market a few times, killed two chickens, slaughtered two geese, and two ducks came.
When I met a fish seller, I bought two carps weighing more than three catties. The nameless town relies on the mountains but not the water, and the two fish are much more expensive than chickens and ducks. However, Gu Ye is not short of money now, and he is very tyrant who didn't even cut the price, and paid directly.
Gu Xiao and Gu Ming glanced at each other, smiled bitterly, and the silver in their hands couldn't be stuffed out at all, and they were reduced to carrying bags. At this point, their hands and shoulders were full. Alas! Having a capable granddaughter (sister) is really stressful! They helplessly looked at Gu Ye, who was strolling around in front of them, and continued to play the role of followers resignedly.
It wasn't until the sun was tilted that Gu Ye returned home with no end in his mind. As soon as he arrived near the Jimin Hall, he saw Ding Dashao helping his father and coming out of the Jimin Hall with a happy face.
"Miss Gu, I'll wait for you to come back." Ding Dashao's attitude was very enthusiastic and earnest, if it wasn't for Gu Xiao blocking it with his body, he would definitely rush over and hold Gu Ye's hand.
"Outside Ding, Ding Dashao, who are you who are unwell?" Gu Ye saw that the two of them were red-faced, not like they were sick, and he felt a little strange in his heart. It can't be a special trip to Jimin Hall to find her, right? Last time, she left enough medicine for the two of them to take for three months, and she definitely didn't come to buy medicine!
Ding Dashao said with a smile: "Isn't it almost the New Year?" How can anyone not eat meat during the New Year's holidays, so ...... My father came to Jimin Hall to check on the doctor, to see if his body was getting better, if he could be accommodating, and eat some meat or something......"
The old man Ding Yuanwai blushed, glared at his son and said, "You don't talk about Lao Tzu!" Obviously, you can't help it, and you want to eat meat! ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Ding Da rarely saw that his old man was annoyed and angry, and hurriedly said with sloppy eyes, "Is it because I am greedy?" Don't you want to eat a few pieces of fatty braised pork? ”
Ding Yuanwai choked for a moment, and whispered stupidly: "After eating vegetarian for a few months, I am about to fade out of my mouth, and I am dreaming of gnawing on pig's trotters, and it is strange that I don't want to eat meat!" ”
Gu Ye was amused by the father and son. She tried her best to hold back a smile and said, "Isn't it okay to eat chicken, duck and fish, as well as thin beef and mutton?" ”
"Eat those, how can you gnaw on pig's trotters!" Ding Yuanwai glanced at his stomach with some sadness, in the past two months, he has lost a lot of weight, his belly is also two sizes smaller, and his clothes have to be redone.
Gu Ye bit his lip, forcibly suppressed a smile, and said to Ding Dashao: "What is the result of the examination?" ”
The joy on Ding Dashao's face became even stronger: "Thanks to the blessing of the girl, my heart disease can no longer be diagnosed from the pulse." My dad's symptoms have also eased a lot...... This is all the credit of Miss Gu and your heart-saving pill. ”
When Gu Ye heard this, she was a little surprised in her heart, she was now learning to diagnose the pulse, and she couldn't help but check the pulse of Ding Dashao's father and son. Sure enough, Ding Dashao's pulse was calm and powerful, without any symptoms. Ding's heart disease is also controllable.
In general, heart disease is difficult to recover from without surgery. But Ding Dashao has created a miracle - is it ...... Is it the credit of the dew on the petals of the little red lotus in the space?
"How's that, how's that?" Ding Da rarely frowned when he saw her, his heart sank, and he anxiously asked in a row, "Little Divine Doctor, we won't rejoice in vain, right?" ”
"The doctor of Jimin Tang has made a correct diagnosis, and you can stop taking the medicine. In the future, pay a little attention to your diet and exercise frequently. Gu Ye gave him a reassuring pill, "As for Ding Yuanwai, the medicine can also be stopped for a while, and when you feel uncomfortable, you can take the heart-saving pill again." ”
"That'...... When we celebrate the New Year, can we eat pig's trotters and braised pork? The expectant eyes of the father and son were like puppies begging for meat and bones from their masters, just like a wagging tail.
Gu Ye looked at the two of them helplessly, sighed and said, "You can eat a small amount, but you can't eat and drink." You also have to pay attention to your diet and try to eat less foods that are high in oil and sugar. ”
"How much is a small amount? Please girl quotes! "Ding Yuanwai's desire for health far exceeds the appetite. He's tasted death before, and he doesn't want to taste it a second time!
"In a day, such a big fat can't be more than three pieces, and the fat and thin can't be more than five pieces!" Gu Ye compared the mahjong-sized square with his hand.
"Huh? You can only eat a little bit! Although Ding Yuanwai's father and son were a little disappointed, they still nodded like good babies.
Seeing off this pair of strange father and son, Gu Ye entered the guest room, only to know that Ding Yuanwai's father and son had sent her a New Year's gift, which was nothing more than clothing, jewelry, pastries and the like.
Gu Ye's eyes were attracted by a brilliant silk satin. At first glance, the material is colorless, but with the change of light and angle, it has a moving brilliance. She couldn't help but reach out and touch it, the material was as silky as milk, and as warm and soft as fine mutton fat jade.
Bai Jingxuan knocked on the door and walked in, saw her rubbing the cloth, and said busily: "This is the 'Heavenly Silkworm Silk' brought by the teacher." The entire Dongling Kingdom can only produce five or six horses a year, and most of them have to be paid as tribute to the Yan Kingdom. Those noble ladies in the capital, if they can get a silk handkerchief of silkworm silk, it will be covetous and enviable, not to mention a whole horse of material! Medicine Sage, he really hurts you! ”
"I'm his precious apprentice, who does he hurt if he doesn't hurt me?" Gu Ye took it for granted. However, she learned more about Master's connections. Such a rare cloth, he gave it as soon as he gave it away, and it really deserved to be a famous medicine saint!
