Chapter Seventy-Six: A New Home

The wind blew, the snow on the eaves was swept down, and it fell on the end of Feng's medicine cabinet that was about to enter the door, and the little guy next to him hurriedly stretched out his hand to pat it for him.

Feng Medicine Cabinet didn't care, stomped his feet, took off his hat and shook it, while looking at the newly replaced peach charms on both sides for the New Year.

"One medicine and one sex, how can a deer be a horse; There are all kinds of diseases, how dare you use cattle as sheep" Liu Meibao, who was walking behind, read it out, and smiled at Feng Medicine Cabinet, "Good union." ”

Feng Yaojie laughed, and the modesty in his mouth was average, but his face was a little proud.

"This is what our young master wrote." The little guy hurriedly said, "The little master reads very well..."

His children are good at reading, and their parents and elders are very proud, the same in ancient and modern times, Liu Meibao smiled, praised a few more words, and the smile on Feng's medicine cabinet became stronger.

The Feng family's medicine store is not small, the doors and windows are carved, and the door curtain is also silky, today is the tenth day of the first month, this is Liu Meibao's first time to work, when she entered the door, she couldn't help but quietly reach out and pinch the door curtain, sighing, this door curtain is better than the cotton jacket she wears.

Entering the lobby, the heating mixed with the fragrance of medicine came to the face, Liu Meibao once again showed a little envy to the two brass braziers in the center, just seeing the fiery red charcoal fire, he already felt warm all over.

Seeing the main family come in, the four young men who were busy hurriedly said hello, and glanced at Liu Meibao by the way, and Feng Yaojie introduced Liu Meibao to them.

Everyone already knows that Shopkeeper Feng has invited a new medicine cabinet, after all, a lot of strange things have been added to the entire warehouse a year ago, and preliminary adjustments have been made, which is said to be the requirement of this new medicine cabinet.

The guys, although a little curious, did not disdain the suspicions.

Joke. Could it be that his master is crazy and stupid to spend money to hire a waste? Since you are invited, it is enough to prove that this girl has real skills and is worth the price.

Next, Feng Yaojie took her to meet the concoction masters and a few stewards, all of whom were people who begged for a living, although they were very surprised that Liu Meibao was unexpectedly young, but their attitude was very kind.

As a last resort, how could a girl show her face, not to mention that everyone knew her life experience, and there was more respect and pity in kindness.

Everyone went to see the warehouse that had been preliminarily sorted out according to her request.

"Not bad, not bad." Liu Meibao nodded and said, the ancients were really smart. The messy requirements she wrote a few years ago, these people actually did everything they had groped for themselves, and they didn't even need her to remind them to do more, and they were amazed and uneasy in their hearts, admiring the ingenuity of these people. I am not worried about my own knowledge, and there will always be a time in the future when I will sit and eat, and if I don't advance, I will retreat. It's a lot of pressure.

"The masters are really ingenious." She said again.

Seeing that her expression was sincere, she was not a lie, and several old pharmacists and stewards were very happy and busy.

Liu Meibao took out the relevant matters of the medicine warehouse that she had sorted out in the past few days. Please take a look at the medicine cabinet first.

Feng Medicine Cabinet didn't answer and shook his head. "If I say that I will hand it over to you, I won't understand it, I just wait to see the results."

Liu Meibao smiled when she heard this.

"Although the conditions are limited, after the beginning of spring, we can still see some results." She thought about it for a moment and didn't dare to say anything too big.

"Limited conditions?" Feng Medicine Cabinet noticed this sentence and frowned, "Miss Liu, you can just say what you want, and you can just say what you said." Lime sawdust sand is good, the cellar will start construction in the first month, what are the conditions. Don't hide it. ”

Plastic sealing, intelligent control of warehouse temperature and humidity, nitrogen antiseptic and insecticide, drug fumigation.....

"Okay, I got it." Liu Meibao smiled and nodded and replied.

Feng Medicine Cabinet nodded. The little guy came to report that a pharmacist was coming, he went out to get busy, Liu Meibao went to arrange the medicine store, although this kind of work does not require great effort, but it is trivial, and there are indeed great conditions, Liu Meibao is afraid that it will not achieve the expected effect, then it will be ruined, so he is very conscientious and does not dare to be negligent.

I was busy until it was dark, and then I rubbed my eyes and walked out, and the medicine store was already ready to close.

"The road is slippery, the girl walks slowly." The guy who was preparing the door panel in the lobby said with a smile.

Liu Meibao thanked him, lifted the curtain and went out, pinched the silk curtain by the way, stayed in the house for a day, and was suddenly blown by the cold wind outside, and couldn't help but shrink his neck, eager to wrap the door curtain around himself.

"This way." Zhou Liangyu beckoned to her from the side.

"Brother, why are you here?" Liu Meibao hurriedly loosened the curtain and walked over quickly.

"Seeing that you didn't come back so late, my mother didn't worry about letting me pick it up." Zhou Liangyu said.

The two walked along the road, this city is a little better than the urban planning of the county, the road is smooth, and the shops on the corner of the street are also hung with red lanterns, at this time the sky is slightly dark, the lanterns have been lit, although it is dim and dark, but at least it can still illuminate the road under their feet.

"I've got a job, too." Zhou Liangyu said as he walked.

"What are you going to do?" Liu Meibao asked.

"The government wants to repair the city wall to defend the battlements, and the whole city will recruit laborers, and I have already signed up." Zhou Liangyu said with a smile.

"Repair the walls?" Liu Meibao frowned.

This is a construction worker, although there are all kinds of machinery in modern society, but the workers are still very hard, so in this era of all manpower, it is even harder to do this.

"Brother, don't go." She said.

Zhou Liangyu knew that she was worried about herself, so she smiled even more, and reached out and patted her chest.

"It's okay, I'm not so tired, it's just digging the soil, and many women and old people are going." He laughed, "Am I really not even better than the women?" ”

Now that Liu Meibao has supported the whole family, Zhou Liangyu is very unhappy in his heart, since he entered the city, he has gone out every day to find something to do, Liu Meibao understands his self-esteem, and he no longer persuades.

"Then you be careful, don't be bullied, and don't rush to do it, after all, there is an old wound on your leg." She instructed carefully.

Zhou Liangyu responded, and when he said this, the two walked away from the street of the shop and turned into a small alley.

There are not many people living here, and no one cleans it, and the snow that fell a few years ago has turned into ice, because Zhou Liangyu and Song Sanniang have no shovels. After two days of shoveling with wooden planks, it was still not enough.

"It's a little slippery." Zhou Liangyu turned around and instructed.

Liu Meibao nodded, and held the cold wall with one hand.

There were no lights in the alley, it was pitch black, and the cry of a child could be heard faintly from behind the high wall, the voice of a woman, and the barking of a dog from nowhere.

Zhou Liangyu himself also stretched out his hand to hold on to the wall, and there was a bone-chilling chill coming from the cold wall, he couldn't help but shiver, and looked back at Liu Meibao. Several times hesitated to reach out.

Although Liu Meibao walked carefully, she was not slow, and quickly passed him.

A dim lamp suddenly lit up at the end of the alley, and walking in such an alley, Liu Meibao, who was full of supernatural events, was startled.

Zhou Liangyu's eyes were sharp. The one who sees the lantern clearly.

"Mother, why did you come out." He said, picking up his pace.

Liu Meibao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why is it so late?" Song Sanniang asked. One side walked a few steps closer and shone the light on the road.

"It wasn't that dark when I came out." Liu Meibao smiled, and naturally took the lantern in her hand, "It's because the wall of our alley is too high." ”

Song Sanniang snorted. Without words, the family entered the house. The unburned firewood between the stoves, the soybean oil lamps lit in the house, hugged with a warm breath, Liu Meibao stomped her feet and held her hands and sighed comfortably.

"There's hot water in the pot, wash your hands and eat." Song Sanniang said, turned around and bolted the door, and used two thick sticks to top it, and then turned around and entered the house with confidence.

Although it was said that the original contract was that it was not necessary to go to the pharmacy every day, Liu Meibao still went every day, and this was the first pharmacy that was willing to ask himself to work. Earning other people's money, she always feels more at ease by doing more.

The warehouse business is trivial, but not complicated. A lot of it doesn't need to be done by herself, and she tells the guys. I just watched them place it, and I got acquainted with the people here day by day, and then saw that the warehouse was preliminarily formal, so I occasionally walked around to see if the medicinal materials were authentic.

"It stinks!" Liu Meibao put down a handful of red flowers in her hand, endured gagging and waved her hand and said.

The pharmacist who delivered the goods on the side was even more unhappy, and just came to deliver the goods, the little girl walked over from the back to look east and west, but no one said about her, and when she asked, it turned out to be a medicine cabinet.

"Old Feng is crazy?" The pharmacist asked in a low voice.

"Don't judge people by their appearance." The steward on the side laughed in a low voice, "The fourth master heard about Wang Liuqi Ejiao, right?" ”

This kind of big thing naturally needs to be known, the pharmacist nodded.

"That's what she recognized." The steward raised her chin at Liu Meibao and smiled.

"Oh, it's her." The pharmacist said suddenly, but then frowned again, "It shouldn't be just Meng, besides, why didn't Wang Liuqi invite her, but it was your shopkeeper who invited her, Lao Feng, don't think that you took the lead, but in the end you suffered." ”

"I can't lose much." The steward said.

As an old man, he naturally knew that the contract signed by Feng Yaojie and Liu Meibao was only a one-year period, and one year was short, even if it was not effective, it was not a big loss in terms of wages.

The pharmacist was noncommittal, and when he saw that Liu Meibao smelled those red flowers again, he simply reached out and pinched his nose.

The medicine merchant snorted in his heart, and before he could speak, he saw the girl wave her hand.

"Superior." She said.

The pharmacist's sarcastic questioning was stuck in his throat.

"It stinks, it stinks, it's really good." Liu Meibao said again, standing away.

Hearing her words, the guys neatly weighed these red flowers.

Seeing that there was no effect on him, the medicine merchant stopped talking, and while talking to the steward, he casually watched the guys busy, and suddenly saw that the guy who had weighed the bag seemed to have stuffed a small bag into the sack.

"Hey, what do you put in there?" The pharmacist couldn't help but ask.

"Oh." When the steward saw it, he smiled and said, "It's nothing, this is the rule for us to store medicinal materials here." ”

"What are the rules for storing medicinal herbs?" The pharmacist asked.

The steward smiled and shook his head at him.

"How did the fourth master's Chuanwu concoct?" The steward asked abruptly.

The medicine merchant glanced at him, "You're stunned, what are you asking!" ”

The method of concoction is the secret of the pharmaceutical dealers, and according to the rules, no one asks or answers.

"So, what are you asking, Fourth Master?" The steward laughed.

Only then did the pharmacist come back to his senses, knowing that he was saying that what he put in the sack was a secret, and waved his hand to cut it.

"What's strange, I didn't have it before, I think that's what the girl told you, right?" The pharmacist glanced at Liu Meibao, who was still standing aside talking to a concoction master.

He has been dealing with the family medicine store for a long time, so he naturally knows that this is a rule that he didn't have before.

The steward only laughed, but did not speak.

He didn't speak, but the medicine merchant was a little curious.

"Hey, seriously, what's it for?" The pharmacist asked in a low voice.

"Safflower tends to fade and get damp, isn't it?" The steward said.

"Hey, when I sold it to you, it wasn't like this, I threw away all those faded and damp." The pharmacist immediately said vigilantly.

The steward laughed and reached out to pat him on the shoulder.

"I know, I know, we throw away a lot of each year and don't do your business." He said, "However, now that there is a way, I won't be blind with so many saffrons in vain in the future..."

"Is that the little cloth bag?" The pharmacist was very clever and asked suspiciously.

The steward nodded, but said no more.

The pharmacist was more interested now, "Really? ”

"We'll see when the time comes." The person in charge did not boast, but simply said.

The more he did this, the more concerned the medicine merchant became, those guys had already packed their bags and carried them away, and they couldn't see what was in the bag.

"Is this thing expensive?" He thought for a moment and asked.

If the value exceeds the safflower, it is a bit more than worth the loss.

"It's not expensive, it's ordinary, it's not worth much." The steward smiled.

When the pharmacist heard this, he summed it up in his heart, if this kind of thing is really worthless, and he can use it himself, if it works, the losses recovered will be very large every year, and if it doesn't work, he won't lose a few dollars, so it's worth a try.

So he pulled the steward and wanted to ask more, but the steward shirked his busyness and wanted to go away.

"Don't, don't, brother, let's talk about it." The pharmacist was reluctant to let him go, and said, "That, do you sell it or not?" ”

"What?" The steward didn't understand.

"It's a small cloth bag." The pharmacist said, "If you tell me, you should sell me a way to make it." ”

"Then I don't dare to call the shots." The steward shook his head and said.

Seeing him like this, the pharmacist wanted it even more, and pulled him to persuade him in every possible way, and then the steward agreed to ask, and came back after a while, asked the pharmacist for a tael of silver, and stuffed a small cloth bag into him.

The pharmacist happily opened it on the spot and watched.

"What, it's lime!" He glared and said, "Does this work?" ”

"You'll find out if you try it." The steward smiled.

The pharmacist will be suspicious, a tael of silver is nothing to him.

"Then I'll try, if it doesn't work, everyone will lose anyway." He said.

"If it works, everybody earns it." The steward also said.

The two looked at each other and smiled, satisfied with each other, and said goodbye. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
