Chapter 20: Yellow

Shen Anan finally got more than one or two pieces of silver, and the most important thing was that the big charcoal yellow was valuable. After getting the silver, she thanked Song Cheng for her kindness before leaving with Wang Song.

It wasn't until Shen An'an left that Li Sheng realized that he didn't even mention anything about what he wanted to say to Shen An'an, so he was even more depressed. Fortunately, he knew that Shen An'an lived there.

Thinking that Shen Anan promised Song Cheng to send him medicine, Li Sheng asked Song Ling.

"Brother Li, I see that this carbon is black and yellow, it's not good, it's not black, why is the price you give so high." Li Sheng wants to switch to the medicinal herb business. Their Li family's business, and the business of several shops recently, have not been doing well. Coupled with his eldest brother, a loser, there is not much money in the family.

Last time, there was an accident in their Li family's mining area, and two workers died, and the compensation alone cost a lot of money.

Song Wei still held it in his hand, and the two pieces of carbon black and yellow that he had cut with a knife just now. said: "Brother Li may not know that this herb that Miss Shen gave me just now is an authentic product, and ordinary people can't concoct such a genuine product." ”

"It's so good? Can't you do it yourself? ”

"We don't have the technology, we can't do it. I don't know who their Shen family can make such a charcoal yellow and black, but they are masters of concocting medicinal materials. ”

"The most important thing in the processing of carbon black yellow is to control the heat, the heat is not in place, too old or not enough time, it will affect the efficacy of the medicine. And it also has to do with what kind of wood is used. ”

If it weren't for Song Li's well-informed, he once saw someone mention it in a medical book. You may have to miss the opportunity to come into contact with carbon black.

"So how effective is this carbon black yellow?" Li Sheng said in his heart, since the price of this carbon black yellow is so much higher than the price of the other two kinds of rhubarb, it should come in handy.

When Song Cheng told him the result, it also surprised Li Sheng.

"This charcoal black yellow is a good medicinal material for military plasters. Grinding into powder and adding it to the plaster not only has good hemostatic properties, but also makes the wound recover faster. This can save money compared to the expensive blood exhaustion we bought. ”

Seeing that Li Sheng didn't seem to understand very well, Song Cheng continued to explain: "In the past, when we made military ointment, we usually put some cooked rhubarb in it, and then add a certain dose of blood exhaustion, but the adhesion of the two is not high, and it is easy to dry out, so we don't dare to do too much." But now that we have this carbon black yellow, blood exhaustion can fully fuse with carbon black yellow, and it can also increase the medicinal properties, and blood exhaustion can also reduce the amount. ”

"A pound of blood is five taels of silver, and the price we buy for carbon black and yellow is one hundred and twenty Wen, Brother Li calculates the difference between them."

"It's really amazing, I didn't expect that you would have such a big profit in the middle of your business of making medicinal materials."

"I just don't know how much Miss Shen can provide us. At present, even if we want to make military ointment, we can only use it on a small scale. But it's okay for this Brother Li to know, don't publicize it. ”

Song Li is because he regards Li Sheng as his brother, so he will tell him in such detail, if someone reveals this secret to Li Sheng, I am afraid that someone will chew the root of his tongue again.

The so-called shopping mall is like a battlefield, and the opportunity to make money may only be for a moment, and if it is lost, there will be no chance to make money.

"The price of blood exhaustion is so high, haven't you thought about going through other channels and getting into a lower price?" In the past, Li Sheng had never been in contact with the area of asking for medicinal materials, but today he inadvertently watched the process of Song Lian's identification of medicinal materials on the spot, and felt that the space for medicinal materials was still quite large, so he had the heart to ask a few more words.

"We also want to, the key is that we don't have cheap channels for blood exhaustion, and in some places we even sell it for six to eight taels and one catty."

Li Sheng secretly wrote it down.

However, Song Cheng would want to use carbon black and yellow for experiments, so he pulled Li Sheng and said, "Brother Li, I can't wait to see the results of the experiment, or you can come with me to take a look." ”

"Okay, there's nothing to do left and right." Li Sheng said loudly.

When Song Li heard Li Sheng say this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Your Second Young Master Li has been idle, and today it is estimated that this charcoal black and yellow face is bigger than mine." ”

Li Sheng glanced at Song Cheng and said, "Is it convenient for me to go and see?" If it's inconvenient, I won't go. ”

"It's fine. Just add this in to see the effect, even if I put the plaster in front of you, you don't know the prescription for our Ruizhitang military plaster. ”

Li Sheng said honestly: "That's right, the so-called interlacing is like a mountain. When it comes to identifying medicinal herbs, I'm going to be willing to give in. ”

Immediately, the two of them entered the pharmaceutical workshop of Ruizhi Hall together, which was in the annex next to it, about 100 square meters.

——-

Here, Shen Anan walked out of Ruizhi Hall with Wang Song with a smile on his face, and as soon as he went out, he saw Liu Ruhai who was waiting for his neck to grow.

They thought that Liu Ruhai was gone, but they didn't expect that he really didn't leave, and he still had a generation of medicine in his hand.

"Little brother, this is the medicine I bought for you, you can apply it later, take care of the injury on your leg, and you will be fine tomorrow."

Wang Song took the medicine bag and said thank you.

Liu Ruhai saw that when the two of them went in, they were carrying a big cloth bag, and now when they came out, the cloth bag around them was empty, and there was a happy smile on the faces of the two, so he asked, "The things in the hands of the two have been disposed of?" That's good, or I'll invite the two of you to the restaurant in front of you for dinner, and we'll talk about cooperation while eating. ”

Shen Anan thought that this Liu Ruhai was just mentioning it on a whim, but he didn't expect him to be so persistent. She could only politely refuse: "I'm really sorry, Shopkeeper Liu, I know what you mean." May I think about it again and get back to you later, okay? ”

"Can't you reply now? If it doesn't work, let's get 28 points, half of the paintings drawn by Miss Shen are sold in my store, and half of them can be sold outside, and this money comes quickly, it's better than you doing farm work at home. ”

Liu Ruhai thought that Shen An'an could sell a pair of shoes for one tael, and that painting had to be at least five or six taels, and he would make a net profit of more than one tael of silver if he took two into a painting. You must know that on weekdays, the profit he has been making is only a few cents, and he is stupid if he doesn't seize this big business.

"Shopkeeper Liu, I want to ask you, how much do you know about the market of painting?"

Liu Ruhai shook his head and said, "Isn't this Miss Shen?" With you at the helm, what am I afraid of? But then again, you just have to paint, and I'll be in charge of sales. ”

Hearing this, Shen Anan could only shake his head. "Shopkeeper Liu, if you don't know anything about painting, just talk about cooperation. It's not just you who can't afford to lose, we can't afford to lose. I advise you to find out the market first. This painting is not like the rice we need to eat when we are hungry. It's not like when we're sick and we have to see a doctor, it's something that we have to consume. Painting is a work of art, a more elegant art, and cannot be done as a business, but only as a pastime and occasionally. ”

Liu Ruhai listened to Shen An'an for a long time, what art, what pastime, he couldn't understand a word. couldn't help but ask with a bitter face: "What do you mean, you just don't cooperate with me, right?" ”
