Chapter 411: Cinnabar is poisonous

It's so weird!

Obviously, the two male dolls next to the little girl look good!

"What's wrong, Brother Wu?"

Seeing that Liu Yunyi was distracted, Lan Yuandao thought that she had lost her soul when she saw a girl, and couldn't help but push Liu Yunyi.

Liu Yunyi couldn't help but ask her doubts, but Lan Yuandao was not from this town, and she couldn't solve her doubts, so she put her doubts back in her heart.

As he spoke, the road began to look rough and muddy, and the air became slightly cloudy.

Liu Yunyi saw half of the white mountain from a distance, and then looked at the lingering granularity in the air, and couldn't help blurting out: "The mine cave here is not limestone?" ”

Lan Yuandao was mysterious, she thought that there was some gold and silver ore hidden here, and it would be iron ore or something like that, but she didn't expect it to be just lime.

However, despite the limestone mining here, the water in the town is completely unpolluted, which is good news.

Lan Yuandao smiled freely: "This town is rich in limestone burns, and the lime it burns is sold to surrounding countries, and it can be used to build houses, fight wars, and even cure diseases. But to say an interesting thing, Na Khan bought lime on a large scale, not for this, but to use it for Taoist priests to practice alchemy. ”

"Huh?"

"Don't believe it, Na Khan has his own sect, the national teacher governs the country, and his prestige is greater than that of the royal family, and everyone obeys the national teacher. This lime is exactly what the national teacher needs, and it just so happens that our town is too much, so I will send it to him this time, earn a penny of silver, and then go to Jiangnan. ”

Liu Yunyi nodded, but listened to Lan Yuandao add: "In addition, there is a mine cave here, which is extremely rich in cinnabar. ”

"Cinnabar?" Liu Yun was slightly surprised.

It's limestone and cinnabar, so it's no wonder that the town here can develop.

Lan Yuandao knew that she was curious, and the group easily arrived near the mine, so Lan Yuandao jumped directly into her carriage, drove for her, and directly shook off the group of dart masters behind her, and went to the mine first.

This move naturally made the brothers shake their heads again and again.

"Young master's enthusiasm, who have you ever seen him so attentive to a girl?"

Everyone shook their heads one after another.

Zhang Dequan couldn't help but add: "I've never seen him so attentive to any young man." ”

"So......" Lao Lu sighed and interjected: "So, we don't like anyone's girls or guys, so it's only my best to see him so enthusiastic about this little brother surnamed Wu." It's crooked, let's not go over and join in the fun, hey......"

When the dart masters heard this, they fell silent.

After being silent, he couldn't help but look at Lan Yuandao and Liu Yunyi.

In their hearts, they each wondered how to explain to the big boss when they went back...... Sad!

In ancient times, cinnabar was a precious medicinal material, and in addition to being used in medicine, it can also be used as pigments and dyes, and it is said that the dyed color can remain bright for a long time, especially loved by dignitaries.

As for the reason, it is probably that the ordinary class cannot afford to consume it.

After all, the extraction of cinnabar itself is particularly difficult.

Lan Yuandao greeted the person in charge of the mine and expressed his intention, and naturally received a great welcome from the person in charge. He personally led Liu Yunyi and Lan Yuandao and took them to the cinnabar stone mine to check out.

The mine is located at the foot of a relatively steep mountain, and when Liu Yunyi went, the mine hole had already been dug out.

It's just that this thing is different from coal mines, as long as the coal mine finds a location, all the shovels dug out are coal mines, but there are many associated ores of cinnabar stone, and after mining, it needs to be crushed and extracted, washed and refined. Only with extreme luck can you find clumps of natural cinnabar.

Liu Yunyi arrived at the entrance of the cave, and there were just two workers carrying baskets full of cinnabar stone on their backs.

Of course, this is not Lan Yuandao's goods.

The person in charge here agreed on a deal with Khando, and Lan Yuandao was in charge of the transportation during the period, and the delivery was for Khando's national division, which was naturally the best goods.

The person in charge took the two of them into a warehouse in the mine, and as soon as they entered, Liu Yunyi was dazzled, only to see that the entire warehouse was full of large and small baskets, which were filled with relatively large pieces of cinnabar, and from a distance, they were no different from rubies.

This is a rare color in the town.

Liu Yunyi couldn't help but step forward and picked up a piece of cinnabar and weighed it carefully.

Lan Yuandao raised his eyebrows: "You like this very much?" ”

Liu Yunyi smiled: "Actually, I'm curious, this thing can really make palace sand for women?" ”

That's right, the girl is so curious, precisely because she has been Huo Huo a lot in the TV series before, and she is very curious about this ancient legend that does not distinguish between truth and falsehood.

At this time, Lan Yuandao was stunned by what she said.

He thought that his brother Wu was a nerd, and when he came out to play, he must have wanted to see all kinds of things in person and learn more. As a result, I didn't expect this nerd to suddenly blink with a pair of big eyes and gossip like a little fox, but he also has such an interesting side.

Touching his nose, Lan Yuandao couldn't help laughing: "Cough, Brother Wu, you're too close to me......"

It's almost all in his face.

And I don't know if it's his delusion, he always feels that there is a faint fragrance on his Wu brother......

Just as he was about to sniff carefully, Liu Yunyi took a half step back: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you can talk to me quickly." ”

Lan Yuandao could only hide his thoughts, and smiled helplessly: "Brother Wu, you are a man, I am also a man, you have read so many books but you don't know, where do I know." Maybe the capital, the south of the Yangtze River, those rich people are doing this, our town is pragmatic and simple, compared to the palace sand this kind of thing, everyone is more willing to think about what to eat tomorrow. You tell me? ”

Curiosity could not be satisfied, Liu Yunyi could only sigh and put the cinnabar stone back into the basket.

Perhaps it was the shrugging brows, and the obviously disappointed expression was a little worrying, and the young man couldn't help but add with a smile: "Although my brother doesn't know the truth of Shougong Sha, he knows that many women like to make lipstick with cinnabar, which is bright in color and enduring, and is extremely popular. If Brother Wu has a favorite girl, his brother will give you some cinnabar, and you will give it to your beloved girl as a gift. ”

Liu Yunyi was stunned on the spot when he heard this, and asked in disbelief: "Cinnabar, make lipstick?" ”

Her suspicious tone made Lan Yuandao confused, and he smiled: "It seems that although Brother Wu has read a lot of books, many knowledge books have not been written, you don't know this, the lipstick made of cinnabar is popular." ”

Liu Yunyi was dumbfounded: "But, cinnabar is poisonous!" ”

This Lan Yuandao heard it for the first time, and he was also a little surprised: "Is it really poisonous?" But isn't cinnabar able to be used in medicine, why is it poisonous? ”

Liu Yunyi was already a little crying and laughing at this time.

"There are many things in the world that can be used as medicinal herbs, but not everyone can be a doctor, because only a doctor can understand the toxicity, and how much dosage should be given to cure the disease without harming the human body. But if this thing falls into the hands of ordinary people, the consequences can be imagined......"

She kind of understood it now.

Why are the women in the village so strange, their skin is abnormally poor, but they still insist on covering up with makeup, instead of protecting their skin first.

In fact, she got the order wrong, it was because she wore makeup that caused her skin to be poor, and then she used makeup to cover it up, so it became an endless cycle......

In those affluent areas of the capital, although there will also be this kind of situation of not being afraid of death, such as wiping your face with lead powder as makeup powder.

But the makeup powder will not be eaten into the stomach.

But cinnabar would!

Zhenlin is relatively backward, and the information is not smooth, so no one knows about the poisoning of cinnabar. And outsiders only buy expensive medicines, which makes cinnabar even more rare, which is sought after by women around here.

The more Liu Yunyi thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and it happened that the person in charge of the cinnabar field came in from outside.

Lan Yuandao remembered what Liu Yunyi had just said, but he didn't feel good when he heard it, so he opened his mouth and shouted: "Master Liu, I'll ......talk to you when you come over."

As soon as the words began, they were stopped by Liu Yunyi.

Cutting off someone's money is like killing one's parents.

Liu Yunyi had a heartfelt look and shook his head at Lan Yuandao, not wanting Lan Yuandao to talk about it.

In his heart, he made a plan to invite a few doctors from Yucheng to come over, and Haosheng told the people in this town about it. They may not believe the words of ordinary people, but they should believe the words of doctors.

Moreover, the facts are here, and the evidence is ironclad, these women have ugly and festering skin, and their bodies are too slender and slender, and they are described as withered.

Compared to the men who have not been poisoned by cinnabar, the reasons can be found out by a little comparison!

Lan Yuandao is quite smart.

He traveled south and north, and he had seen a lot, so he was in a hurry before he thought about saying it, and at this time, after being reminded by Liu Yunyi, he immediately changed the conversation and smiled at the man: "Master Liu, this batch of goods is really beautiful, I will invite my brothers to come and pack the goods." ”

After speaking, he pulled Liu Yunyi and was about to leave.

However, he didn't take two steps, but he was still stopped by the other party.

"Chief Liu?" Lan Yuandao pretended to be at a loss, but his face couldn't help but sink slightly, just because he faintly heard that there seemed to be many figures outside the warehouse.

This Chief Liu changed his enthusiastic appearance when he welcomed Lan Yuandao just now, and a fierce color obviously flashed in his narrowed eyes.

He glanced at Lan Yuandao, and then turned his gaze to Liu Yunyi.

"This Wu Gongzi, I heard what you just said...... "He said as he walked towards the two of them, the threat was obvious. And asked coldly: "Wu Gongzi, what do you want to do?" ”

Now that the words have been heard, Liu Yunyi didn't bother to cover it up.

Lan Yuandao wanted to protect her, but Liu Yunyi directly pushed him away with his backhand: "I don't need protection!" ”

After she said that, she was not afraid of this sinister face of Master Liu, and leaned her neck to take a step closer to him.

Although he is not as tall as this person, he is not lost at all in terms of momentum.

She reminded word by word: "Master Liu, since you are not deaf and have listened to all the words, then you must not have and urine in your head!" These cinnabar are poisonous, and will be eaten into the abdomen as lip fat, and long-term small amounts of consumption and external use will cause great damage to the human body, and even endanger life!

Since you are the main person here, you must be familiar with the people in the town, do you want to watch them get killed and die?! ”

"Ridiculous! Alarmist! Just a yellow-haired child, what kind of nonsense is he talking about! Come! ”

Only listening to the order of this Director Liu, the workers who were called outside the warehouse by him actually rushed in with shovels and sticks and other things, and surrounded Liu Yunyi and Lan Yuandao.
