Chapter 56: Moving
Yao Lao died, really died.
After he finished explaining, he closed his eyes and there was no more life.
Although Jia Yi has been learning from Yao Lao, he is not very good at seeing patients, in fact, even Yao Lao's methods are average, but they are enough in this small place. After all, their main business is pharmacists, if they know what kind of disease they can prescribe symptomatic medicine, at least they can alleviate it, but it is not easy to see what disease they have, and even medicine can only rely on experience.
So for Yao Lao's death, Jia Yi couldn't do anything, he could only watch.
Yao Lao's funeral was handled by Jiayi's parents when he came back, and the funeral of the people in the village was relatively simple, and the pharmacy owner and tavern owner came over, and they forgot their names and didn't bother to check them.
Jia Yi was actually not too sad, although he didn't feel very comfortable, except for when Yao Lao just died, he didn't shed tears. Regarding life and death, he is actually very open-minded, and even a little indifferent. Is there anyone who is immortal?
He was already the oldest person in Tagi Village. In the previous life, if an elderly person passed away, it would be considered a joy and mourning, and when he went to eat, he would take the bowl home and think that it would be a blessing.
Yao Lao's words before he died told Jia Yi that there is really magic in this world, in fact, Jia Yi is not very sure, but at least this strange effect can only be explained by magic.
But what's the use of this trap? If you forget everything, it's a secret, but you just forget the name. It's not just that you forget your name, but everyone forgets your name, but it's normal for you to remember everything except your name. I feel that the effect of this "magic" is simply to erase a person's name, and there is a feeling of a cannon hitting mosquitoes.
Even people who have never been to the ruins will forget the name of Yao Lao, and there are only two effects that can be achieved, one is that Yao Lao has a constant effect, everyone forgets his name, and the other is to eliminate the concept of Yao Lao's name from this world. If it is achieved in the second way, it means that the level of this magic is very high, and it involves the level of laws.
Although Jia Yi has not seen the "magic" of this world, or even a little bit of understanding, it does not prevent him from deducing through more than 10 years of novel experience. The name is just a concept, and some people even have pseudonyms, pen names, and so on, if you want to operate on this kind of conceptual thing, it feels no easier than pulling a meteorite down. At least Jiayi knows that the meteorite is based on Newton's three laws, but what about the name?
Even the first method is not simple, directly constant a magic on people for at least 10 years, just think about the conservation of energy, if this is constant doom effect, it is terrifying to think about.
Now it seems that Yao Lao asked not to say whether Jia Yi could have the opportunity to learn magic, and even if he did, he would not be qualified to touch such a high-end thing in a short time. With Jiayi's character, not to mention that I am completely treated, I must be at least 80% sure that I will try that ruin.
Jia Yi inherited his teacher's inheritance, and the most valuable thing should be Yao Lao's savings, about 20 gold coins, which is much more than his own family's savings. Yao Lao's books are the most helpful to Jia Yi, but he has memorized them all, even if there are vague places to recall carefully in his mind, so these books are not very useful now, but they can be shown to Donna.
It turned out that his family only had a balance of about half a silver coin a year, but after selling bread, it was much better, and the gross profit was 5 gold coins, but the expenses were also much larger, and the living conditions had improved a lot, and the cost was also greater. In the past three years, I have about 10 gold coins in savings, and about half of the money was earned at the beginning, when it was still an exclusive business.
Jiayi gave the inherited gold coins to his parents, mainly to buy a shop. Originally, Gary's plan was to work for another year and a half, save enough 15 or 6 gold coins to buy a small shop to sell bread, and the workshop would have been opened outside the town. Now with Jiayi's support, I can buy a shop directly in the town in one step, and make bread and houses in the back, and a bread shop in front.
It's better to live in town than outside, at least to wake up a little later in the morning.
Gary started looking for a house while selling bread, the town was not too big, and there were few shared houses.
After knowing that it was more than a month later, Gary officially found the house, and he found it under the introduction of the housekeeper of the lord's mansion. It's not far from the Lord's Palace, and it's the center of the town.
After the house was settled, the whole family went to see it. It's not small, there is a yard in the middle of the backyard, the last row is two bedrooms plus a living room, and on the left side of the yard is a kitchen, the kitchen is still quite large, just enough to be used as a bread workshop. Next to the kitchen is the firewood room. On the right side of the yard are two guest rooms, plus a utility room, in front of the utility room is a horse stall, I think the original owner raised a horse. In front of the courtyard is the façade facing the street, and in the future, there is a counter selling bread.
This shop is not cheap, it took a total of more than 20 gold coins to get it, or for the sake of the face of the lord's mansion.
Then there is the renovation and renovation, first of all, the kitchen should be remodeled, which is the top priority. First there is an oven, which is indispensable for baking bread, and then Jiayi designed a stove with two iron pots, one large and one small, copied from the stove of his hometown. Two iron pots are not cheap, mainly for the convenience of stir-frying.
Then there were some other miscellaneous things, which added up to several gold coins, so that with the inheritance of Yao Lao, there was not much left of the family's savings, but fortunately, it did settle in the town, and it was the first in Duomu Village.
In the next few days, we will move, first of all, I will move all the books of Yao Lao, and the medicinal materials left by Yao Lao, except for the particularly precious ones, will be disposed of to the pharmacy owner.
And then there are some of your own household goods, furniture, flour, etc. Have a meal with people who know you well in the village and say your last goodbye. Thinking of his little friend, Jia Yi is still quite reluctant.
Due to the renovation and relocation, Gary's bread business was suspended for several days, but fortunately he had already greeted the guests in advance. On the third day after the move, the Jiajia family's bread workshop was officially opened, and the name was Erica Bakery, named after Jiayi's mother.
Before the official opening, Gary also visited his peers, one to pay a visit to the pier, and the other to inform them that the price of their bread was going to be reduced. This kind of notice is actually necessary in order to avoid vicious competition and fall into a crazy price war.
The bread in the Jia family has always been the most expensive, not only because it tastes good, but also because other breads with a slightly worse taste can be sold. In fact, people who do business have default rules and tacit understanding.
In the past, the bread of the Jia family was bought two and got one free, which was actually equivalent to a price reduction, but it was not intuitive, and many individual customers couldn't react. Now, it's time for the official price reduction, and the reasons have been thought of - the store is officially opened, and in order to thank the new and old customers for taking care of it, all the bread in Erica's Bakery has officially been reduced.
At the same time, Jiayi also prepared new products in advance to attract customers when it officially opened.
