Chapter 3: Pigweed

Li Changkong noticed Zhen Jian's expression, smiled, and explained: "This is not an ordinary weed, but a pigweed. ”

"Its rhizomes can be used as medicine, which has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, invigorating blood and removing blood stasis, and removing rheumatism."

"And the vitality is extremely strong, even in barren land, it can grow in large quantities, such as Xishan!"

"I have observed all the way just now, and the number of pigweeds is not a minority."

"It's... Will it work? "Zhen Jian is still a little suspicious, when did the young master still understand medicine, and he has lived for so long, and he has never heard of such a medicine in traditional Chinese medicine.

Or wait for the lord to coerce the capital to comply.

"Of course, we can't just use herbs, we still have to make medicines!"

"Prescription medicine? Master, do you still know how to make medicines? ”

"I know a little bit about it." Actually, I just happen to know how to make a medicine.

Li Changkong happened to read "Zhang's Medical Tong" before crossing over, which was written by Zhang Lu in the Qing Dynasty in the 34th year of Kangxi, and is a comprehensive medical book focusing on miscellaneous diseases.

Among them, there is a clear record of a prescription called pig ointment.

The main medicinal materials are Pigweed, Angelica, Peony, Chuanwu, Qianghuo, Parsnip, etc.

If Li Changkong remembers correctly, except for the pigweed, the rest of the medicinal materials are common in Daqian, and it is not difficult to find.

Therefore, it should not be difficult to make the pig ointment.

In the record of "Zhang's Yitong", the ointment has a miraculous effect on the treatment of rheumatism, paralysis, blood circulation and stasis.

It was widely used at the time.

Therefore, if this flavored medicine is made, as long as the medical hall in Qiandu knows the goods, Li Changkong feels that it should not be difficult to sell it for money, but the difficulty is how to sell it for a lot of money.

It's a matter of careful planning.

"Young Master, even if this herb is really that useful, what if it grows somewhere else?"

"People don't necessarily buy us, and people may go up the mountain to dig it." Zhen Jian said, he still felt that this idea was not very reliable.

When Li Changkong heard this, he immediately showed a bright smile, put his arm on Zhen Jian's shoulder and said, "I want your help." ”

Zhen Jian was a little scared of such a young master, and hurriedly said: "As long as you open your mouth, young master, it doesn't matter if you go to Daoshan Mountain or go down to the oil pot, the small one will never frown." But can you not laugh like that, little scared. ”

When Li Changkong heard this, the smile on his face suddenly stiffened, and he said in his heart that he was smiling so hypocritically?

"I don't need to go up the knife mountain and go down to the oil pot, I just want you to find someone to walk around the inside and outside of the Qiandu City to see where this herb still grows, if there is, all of them will be uprooted for me."

"Understood?"

When Zhen Jian heard this, he immediately nodded like pounding garlic.

What do you think is the matter, that's it, it's not ambiguous to do it yourself!

"Very good, remember to uproot, this herb is very tenacious, but if you leave a root, maybe it will grow again next year."

"Okay, I'll do something, young master, don't worry."

"One more thing, pick more of these herbs on the West Mountain, and then buy angelica, peony, Chuanwu, Qianghuo, and parsnip. Master, I want to make a medicine! ”

"Ming... Got it. Although Zhen Jian still felt that this matter was unreliable, he still agreed, and at most he would report to the master when he returned home.

"Okay, let's go home!"

By the time the two returned to the Marquis of Wuling's mansion, it was already evening.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Li Zhufeng sitting on the bench in the main hall, his back gloomy.

"Dad, I'm back."

When Li Zhufeng heard the voice, he immediately turned his head, covered his loneliness, squeezed out a smile and said, "My son is back, wait a while, the meal will be ready immediately." ”

"Dad, I've found a way to make money, there are large tracts of herbs growing on the West Mountain, and our foreign debts have been settled, you don't have to worry about it anymore." Li Changkong didn't care about eating, and directly told what he found in Xishan.

Who would have thought that Li Zhufeng didn't take it seriously at all, nodded with a smile, and said perfunctorily: "It's easy to say, let's eat first." ”

Seeing this, Li Changkong sighed helplessly.

Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, it may have been calibrated in Li Zhufeng's heart, his son is a gentleman who does not learn and has no skills, and it is already a great luck not to cause trouble, how can he have the ability to earn 50,000 taels of silver.

In fact, Li Zhufeng really thinks so.

In a barren place like the West Mountain, can herbs grow all over the mountains? That's not.

I guess this stupid kid didn't know what herbs were and what weeds weeds weeded weeds weed against.

But it's also great to have this heart.

Although Changfeng is a little stupid, he is extremely filial.

"Okay, eat, eat." Li Changkong didn't explain much, and when he really earned the money, his father would naturally believe in his ability.

After eating, Li Changkong called Steward Yang into the house alone and asked, "Is it not ideal to go to the capital today?" My dad didn't quite feel right when he came back. ”

When Steward Yang heard this, he immediately sighed and told the truth.

"Young master, you don't know, the capital city is extremely arrogant, and he keeps claiming that he has earned the money with his ability, why should he pay it back."

"If you say anything, you will make trouble in front of the saint, and he may not have the slightest loss."

"I also deliberately washed my neck with water in front of the master, saying that I was waiting for the master's knife to cut and kill."

"is also a nobleman, and the master can't really kill the capital uncle, so he is naturally angry."

When Li Changkong heard this, he suddenly understood.

He doesn't know much about the capital, but he also knows that he regards money as his life!

On weekdays, he is known for being stingy, and he is known as a big iron rooster.

If you want to get money from him, I'm afraid it's harder than climbing to the sky.

The original body also had a problem with his brain, but he mixed up with such people and caused this great disaster.

But one thing people are right, this matter of spending 50,000 taels to buy land is the original deed signed in black and white, even if it really has to reach the heavens, it is reasonable to make trouble in front of the saint.

The money was given to me by your son, and I also sold the land, a business in black and white, what does it mean that you bring a knife to the door?

Maybe people can backhand Li Zhufeng for the crime of trespassing in the capital.

Eighty percent of this loss can only endure it for the time being, and find another opportunity in the future to get back all the face.

At least the Liangzi of the Marquis of Wuling and the Bofu of the capital city are concluded.

"Okay, I know, go see if Zhen Jian has come back, and when he comes back, let him send the medicinal materials to my house quickly."

Steward Yang heard this, but a drum beat in his heart, could it be that the young master really wanted to make medicine?

This... It's not an easy job.

You don't see those white-headed old doctors, who have been practicing medicine for most of their lives, and they may not be able to make a new medicine.

The young master is so young, he has never been in contact with medicine, and he wants to make medicine, which is really a little... Somewhat whimsical.

But... Alas, forget it, as long as the young master stays quietly in the mansion, and doesn't want to go out to harm people, it is already a blessing.

Steward Yang immediately retreated and went to find Zhen Jian.
