Liu Qingxin had just handed over the medicine bowl in her hand to the cook who greeted her, when she saw Sister-in-law Jiang trotting in from outside, followed by the medicine merchant she had only met yesterday, Zhou Laoer. οΌοΌ
"The medicine has been caught?"
Glancing at Sister-in-law Jiang, who had already arrived in front of him and saluted with her, and listening to her response, Liu Qingxin was a little puzzled, looked up at Zhou Lao Er who came in with her, hooked her lips and smiled, and asked him with a kind attitude, "Why is Shopkeeper Zhou here?" Is there anything you need to discuss with the slave family? β
"Back to Mrs., the medicine has been grasped, the medicine grinding equipment in Zhou's shopkeeper is broken, and the new one has not been made back, the slave and maid are afraid of delaying the master's use, so they will take it back first, and set a set of utensils by the way, planning to grind it by themselves, counting the time, it should not be a long time, and it will be able to be delivered."
Sister-in-law Jiang is a meticulous person, so Liu Qingxin gave her a certain authority to purchase things, fifty taels of silver per month for miscellaneous use, what to buy, where to spend, all write down the accounts, at the end of the month accounting, more refund and less compensation, "The slave maid specially inquired with someone, this shopkeeper who sells medicine utensils, is to supply appliances to major pharmacies all year round, all the appliances are made in accordance with the rules, the craftsmanship is excellent, the goods are genuine, the only bad thing is that the shipment is too slow." β
"Just now, it was a coincidence, there was a medical workshop that was not opened, and a set of tools that had been ordered before returning and had not yet been picked up had been picked up, so that the slave maid had met ...... The slave and maid talked to the shopkeeper about the price, and the shopkeeper heard that we were going to open a new medical workshop, and that there would be no need to order equipment from him in the future, so he discounted the price of the new set of equipment made for others and sold it to the slave and maid at a fifty discount. β
Speaking of which. Sister-in-law Jiang paused slightly, swallowed her saliva, and moistened her throat. Then he continued, "The original price is twenty-three taels of silver. After the price was discounted, it was eleven taels and halves, and the slave maid asked him to wipe a fraction, eleven taels and a whole ...... Because this thing was cheap, the shopkeeper said that he would not deliver the goods, and after a while, the slave put down the medicine she had grasped and took the two mothers-in-law with her, and went to his shop to bring back all the utensils! β
"You see. At noon, you need to change the old man's dressing, just don't delay. β
Liu Qingxin casually responded to Sister-in-law Jiang, and then turned his gaze back to Zhou Laoer, who had already walked in front of him, about five steps away, "Shopkeeper Zhou? β
"Zhou is here to apologize to his wife, the equipment is damaged, there is no spare, and it has caused trouble to his wife. γγβ
Zhou Lao Er first apologized to Liu Qingxin, and then. Before she could reply, he stood up straight and said another thing about his origin. "All kinds of medicinal materials ordered by Madame yesterday, Zhou has already prepared them, I don't know when Madame is free, go and check them?"
"My husband was a little injured, I'm afraid it's not suitable to go these days, I'm a woman's family, although I know some medicinal herbs, this has just given birth to a child, only out of confinement. It's not a good place to go......"
After a slight pause, Liu Qingxin pretended to be unintentional. With the afterglow of his eyes, he looked at Zhou Laoer, who was standing not far from him. Seeing that he kept his head down, he did look like he had something to say, he didn't look at it blindly, and he took the opportunity to talk about things to inquire about the things in his own family, so he was a little relieved and talked to him about business, "If this is not the case, Shopkeeper Zhou, you calculate the price first, I will pay you ninety percent of the money for the goods first, occupy your warehouse for a few days, and wait for me to make people make the medicine cabinet ready, and my husband can also walk on the ground, and then go to you to inspect the goods and pick up the goods?" β
"Money is a small thing! Zhou is just worried that he will use it by mistake! Yesterday...... Your mother-in-law went to Zhou to grab medicine and prescriptions, but Zhou was startled! β
Speaking of this, Zhou Lao Er paused slightly, looked at the two mothers-in-law who were busy cleaning the yard, and looked at Liu Qingxin with some words, "Zhou also knows a little about pharmacology, and Mrs. made someone catch that medicine yesterday...... Zhou is a little incomprehensible...... I don't know, can I ask for advice? β
"The principle of medicine has always been carefully studied and scrutinized, and the shopkeeper Zhou is interested, so it doesn't hurt for us to talk, please come in the house."
Liu Qingxin knew that the prescription he prescribed would make most doctors unable to understand, but he never expected that the second pharmacist, Zhou Laoer, would be the first to ask him for advice, "Sister-in-law Wang, go make some good tea, my lord and I want to discuss medical theory with Shopkeeper Zhou." β
Ling Jun is obviously not a person who understands medical science, but Liu Qingxin believes that he can "pretend" his erudite and talented husband to help him prop up the faΓ§ade, although he ...... Even she couldn't figure out why she believed Ling Jun so unreasonably, but when it came to the end, she still instinctively decided to go on with her own heart!
Entering the door, there was a strong smell of wine, which made Zhou Lao Er slightly stunned, looked up, and saw that Liu Qingxin looked indifferent, so he forcibly suppressed his doubts and continued to follow her to the back room.
Doubts are always like springs, the more you press harder, the higher it will bounce up, and it is applicable at any time and anywhere, and at this time, of course, it is no exception.
When he entered the inner room, he saw Ling Jun lying on the soft couch by the window, almost wrapped into a zongzi, and the doubts in Zhou Laoer's heart suddenly became more and bigger, "This is ......"
"This is my husband, Ling Jun."
With a light smile, he introduced Zhou Lao'er to "his husband" who was lying on the bed, and Liu Qingxin took a step to the soft couch where Ling Jun was lying, looked at him meaningfully, and then continued, "Husband, the shopkeeper Zhou who supplied medicine to our medical workshop is here, I will help you get up and say hello, how about it?" β
"Yes, lady."
Listening to Liu Qingxin call himself "husband", Ling Jun suddenly felt that his mood was so good that he was going to fly to the sky, stepping on the clouds and turning a few heels to express it, this mood was good, naturally, and his acting skills were better, "I look so ugly at this time, Yu Li, I shouldn't be a guest, alas, I really want to make future business partners laugh......"
With the support of Liu Qingxin, Ling Jun changed from the previous sitting posture to almost sitting up straight, turned his head, looked at Zhou Laoer, smiled at him politely, and greeted him gently, "Hello shopkeeper Zhou, I heard my lady mention you yesterday, I never thought that I was fortunate to meet you today!" We are new to the city, and in the future, we will inevitably bother you to help you more! β
"Shopkeeper Ling is so polite! Zhou is also a person who has studied medical pharmacology since childhood, yesterday, I was fortunate to see the prescription of the wife to ask the subordinates to grab a pair of medicines, I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't figure it out, I flipped through the book to find it, and I didn't figure it out until half the night......"
Speaking of this, Zhou Lao Er paused slightly, raised his head, peeked at Ling Jun, and saw that his color remained the same, and he was still smiling, so he continued to say, "Zhou Mou has average talent, but he was born with a stubborn bone, and he can't sleep when he encounters something he can't understand or understand...... I originally wanted to come to ask for advice in the middle of the night last night, but I walked out of the house, but I felt that something was wrong, and after I went back, I tossed and turned, and until now, I haven't been able to close half of my eyes, no, this morning, Mrs. asked the family to grab the medicine again, and Zhou ......"
"It's good to be diligent and studious, but because of this, it's not beautiful to damage your body."
With Liu Qingxin's eyes, Ling Jun understood how to deal with this second Zhou Lao, nodded politely at him, and then shifted his gaze to Liu Qingxin, and handed over this matter that he was not "professional" to her to explain, "Lady, what medicine did you ask your family to go to Shopkeeper Zhou yesterday?" It really made Shopkeeper Zhou so ......"
"I'll just grab a little bit of gold sore medicine for your wounds...... Isn't this a strange recipe? β
Liu Qingxin, who was very satisfied with Ling Jun's performance, unconsciously gave Ling Jun an exaggerated smile from an angle that Zhou Lao Er couldn't see, and then slowly stood up straight, turned his head, and looked at Zhou Lao Er, "Shopkeeper Zhou, where do you not understand the medicine I wrote a prescription to make people catch yesterday?" β
"The medicine that Mrs. sent people to catch is a total of 16 flavors, among them, four coins of male turtle, five coins of gallant Nanxing, five coins of blood exhaustion, eight coins of myrrh, nine pieces of slightly fried strychnine, three coins of keel, five coins of saffron, three coins of Sichuan Qianghuo, three coins of crab bones, three coins of angelica, net * one tael, five coins of mouth parsnip, five coins of Angelica dahurica, five coins of cimicifuga, three coins of calamus, four coins of Sichuan Qiong, this ...... Right? β
Seeing that there were only three of them, Zhou Lao Er relaxed a little, took a step closer to the soft couch where Ling Jun was lying, and continued to ask him, "None of these sixteen flavored medicines look like medicine primers, this ...... This doesn't make sense! β
"The primer of medicine is rice wine, or human saliva, the former is suitable for widespread use, and the latter has a better effect than the former, but it is ...... If you use it a lot, I'm afraid that anyone can't do it......"
Turning his head, he glanced at Zhou Laoer, who was looking at him with surprised eyes, Liu couldn't help but smile, he didn't hide it at all, and "explained" to him what he couldn't understand in this prescription, "My husband was robbed by mountain bandits on the way back from outside, and he suffered many knife wounds and arrow wounds, and his bones were cracked two, when I met him on the road, he had been seriously injured for some time, considering that he had lost a lot of blood, and if he didn't stop bleeding as soon as possible, he would have to worry about his life, so I scrubbed his wounds on the side, On the other hand, let the family go to you, grab this medicine and come back, and use it for him...... Because a few days ago, when I gave birth, I asked people to prepare some rice wine at home, and I didn't let people buy additional wine, which caused the shopkeeper Zhou to stay awake all night, which is really a ......"
