Chapter 9 Pharmacy

The Chu family's mansion is very large, but the place where Chu Xiu, a concubine who is not valued on weekdays, lives is not very big, it is just an ordinary small courtyard, and the scale is smaller than the other three brothers.

Fusion of the memories of the two lives, except for some important things, for the rest of the things chu xiu's head was still a little dazed, out of the council hall, he thought for a while before remembering where he lived.

Pushing open the gate of his courtyard, Gao Bei was waiting inside, and when he saw Chu Xiu coming back, Gao Bei greeted him and said, "Childe, the discussion is over?" Do you want to eat, and the villain will prepare it for you?"

Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "Don't worry, where is the pharmacy where the family receives cultivation resources?" I haven't received cultivation resources this year, so I should have accumulated a lot, right?"

Gao Bei's mouth moved, he wanted to say something, but he held it back.

Chu Xiu said lightly: "I know what you want to say, do you want to say that I was not qualified to receive it before, and now I don't necessarily want to give it when I go, right?"

Gao Bei smiled awkwardly, but didn't dare to answer, in fact, Chu Xiu also knew what was going on.

As a concubine, Chu Xiu has not been valued since he was a child, and there was no family elder to teach him when he should cultivate, and when he had missed the best cultivation period, the Chu family casually sent a guard to teach him martial arts.

And every descendant of the Chu family is eligible to receive a cultivation resource every month, but these things have never fallen into Chu Xiu's hands since childhood, and they have all been taken away by others, and that person is Chu Kai, the eldest son of the Chu family.

Chu Xiu didn't dare to complain to Chu Zongguang for this kind of thing, and the people in the pharmacy wouldn't talk much, so he tacitly gave Chu Kai the cultivation resources that should be given to Chu Xiu.

So now Chu Kai's strength is a notch stronger than Chu Xiu and others, and there is a lot of credit for the 'Chu Xiu' in the past.

Chu Xiu looked directly at Gao Bei and said, "Remember, those are all the rules of the past, and now, some rules have to be changed." ”

Gao Bei was stared at by Chu Xiu's gaze, and he nodded hurriedly.

"Lead the way. ”

The Chu family's pharmacy is very lively, and there is a separate area that is within the scope of the pharmacy.

In fact, although the pharmacy is called a pharmacy, it produces two kinds of medicines.

One is Jinchuang Medicine, which is sold to the people of Jianghu and Jianghu, which is made by the pharmacy and sold in the Chu family's shop in Tongzhou Mansion.

There is also a kind of pill that can assist the cultivation of martial artists, such as Qi Replenishment and Blood Coagulation Pill.

This kind of elixir materials are very precious, and some materials are not available in Tongzhou Mansion, and they need to be purchased outside through caravans, and the failure rate of refining is also very large, so this kind of elixir is basically not sold, and is only used by the internal personnel of the Chu family.

At this time, Gao Bei took Chu Xiu to the pharmacy, and some of the subordinates and stewards of the pharmacy looked at Chu Xiu with a hint of discoloration in their eyes, after all, they had never seen this second son in this place, why did he come to the pharmacy today?

Chu Xiu pushed open the door of a room, and inside sat a pharmacy manager in his forties, dressed in brocade.

There are several stewards of the pharmacy, and the person in front of him is only responsible for distributing cultivation resources to the disciples of the Chu family, not the chief steward.

At this time, seeing someone suddenly push the door in, he subconsciously sat up straight, but after seeing that it was Chu Xiu, he immediately leaned back on the chair and asked casually: "It turned out to be the second son, I don't know why the second son came to my pharmacy?"

At this time, Gao Bei, who was following behind Chu Xiu, smiled and said, "Steward Zhou, it's like this, Gongzi has come to receive his cultivation resources for this year. ”

Steward Zhou was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then sneered and said, "Second Prince, is this making fun of me? Your cultivation resources have always been received by the eldest prince, what do you care about me?"

Chu Xiu said lightly: "Then why did you give my cultivation resources to the eldest prince?

Steward Zhou was stunned when he heard this, who else should speak for this kind of thing? When the eldest prince took your cultivation resources, you didn't even dare to let out a fart, of course they wouldn't talk too much.

Now Chu Xiu actually came to question him, which made Steward Zhou feel that Chu Xiu was here to make trouble, but he also didn't care about this second son, who had never been very valued in the family.

Steward Zhou directly snorted coldly and said: "If the second prince is dissatisfied with the eldest prince taking your cultivation resources, he can go directly to the eldest prince to ask for it, if you want to make me angry, second son, I'm afraid you think too much!"

Chu Xiu's eyes showed a hint of danger, but at this moment, a person suddenly ran in, slapped the steward of the week to the ground, and scolded: "Bold!

The steward covered his face and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief: "Steward, why are you ......?"

"Shut up! there's no room for you to talk here!"

The chief steward of the pharmacy interrupted him with a loud snort.

The chief steward of the pharmacy was slightly fat, and he turned to face Chu Xiu, and his face immediately changed from fierce to extremely kind.

"The people under my command are not sensible, please forgive me, my pharmacy has all your cultivation resources for you, and there will be no less, and recently the alchemist has newly refined a furnace of excellent blood coagulation pills, and I will also give you a bottle, which will be packed for you." ”

As he spoke, the chief steward of the pharmacy immediately ordered someone to pack the things, respectfully handed them to Chu Xiu, and personally sent them out of the door.

Turning around and closing the door, the chief steward looked at Steward Zhou, who was still covering his face and looking sluggish, and sighed: "I slapped that slap just now for your own good, if I don't hit, you will be unlucky today." ”

There are so many stewards in the pharmacy, and this week's steward is his confidant, so Steward Zhou slapped him in disbelief without saying a word to the chief steward.

Of course, now Steward Zhou didn't dare to complain, he just said strangely: "Steward, you just ...... Why is the second son so polite?"

In fact, Steward Zhou wanted to say that he was lowering, and the appearance of the chief steward could be called groveling.

The chief steward shook his head and said: "Remember, in the future, the attitude towards the second son will be more polite, even more polite than to the other three sons, this second son is not the second son before." ”

As he spoke, the chief steward told him what had happened in the Chu family's chamber before.

The chief steward is in charge of the pharmacy, and he can be regarded as one of the powerful figures in the Chu family's stewardship, and he just stood in the council hall and witnessed everything the whole time.

This Chu Xiu acted so crazy before, he almost didn't beat Steward Liu to death in front of everyone, and he was chilled when he saw that posture.

As for the steward Zhou over there, he was even more trembling after hearing it.

There is also a distinction between the steward and the housekeeper, he belongs to the lowest level, and Steward Liu, as the chief butler of the Chu family, is the highest level, and he has to bow his head when he sees Steward Liu on weekdays.

As a result, even Steward Liu was almost abolished on the spot by the second son, and he dared to be so rude to him, and Steward Zhou felt that he was simply dying.

Steward Zhou hurriedly sobbed gratefully to the chief steward: "If it weren't for the chief steward you this time, the villain would be unlucky." ”

The chief steward sighed and said: "Remember, although we are all the stewards of the Chu family, our subordinates are always subordinates, and if we forget our identity, the consequences will be very serious."

Just like that Liu Guan's family, he forgot his identity, and now he not only has to lose face, but also has to lie in bed for several months. ”

On the way back to his courtyard, Gao Bei couldn't help but say to Chu Xiu: "Son, you are really majestic, and the chief steward of the pharmacy is so polite." ”

"Polite?" Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "That's not politeness, that's awe." If you can't be good enough for everyone to respect you, then you can only be so evil that everyone is afraid of you. ”

Gao Bei shook his head a little confused and said, "I don't understand." ”

Chu Xiu pushed open the gate of the courtyard: "Of course you don't understand, if you do, you won't be mixed up for so many years and you haven't even been in charge." ”

Looking at the slightly hollow courtyard, Chu Xiu said to Gao Bei: "Go find some wooden stakes to stand in the courtyard." ”

"What does Childe want a stake for?"

Chu Xiu's eyes showed a gleam and said, "Practice the knife!"

If you want to move forward in martial arts, what you need is nothing more than talent, perseverance, chance, and understanding, regardless of before and after, but if you want to reach the peak, all of them are indispensable.

For the current Chu Xiu, his talent can only be said to be a middle-class person, and he doesn't know his understanding for the time being, but Chu Xiu knows a lot about the chance, but he doesn't have the strength and can't grab it.

So now Chu Xiu can only work hard from perseverance.

Gao Bei went to prepare the wooden stake, saw that it was getting dark, and by the way, he had dinner brought over.

Although this high ability is average, it can be regarded as conscientious and careful.

Back in his house, Chu Xiu took out all the pills he received from the pharmacy, among which two packets of tonifying qi powder a month, it should be twenty-four packs a year, but the chief steward of the pharmacy gave him thirty packs.

There are also blood coagulation pills, three a year, but there are ten in Chu Xiu's bottle, and the quality is still excellent.

This tonifying qi powder is relatively simple, just grind some herbs into powder and mix them together according to a certain ratio, which can replenish qi and strengthen the body and assist in cultivation, but there are a few flavors of medicine that are more precious and cannot be bought in Tongzhou Mansion.

As for the Blood Condensation Pill, as the name suggests, it is used to help martial artists condense the qi and blood in their bodies and impact the Blood Condensation Realm, and it requires a special alchemist to refine it, the process is complicated, and there is a chance of failure, even if the Chu family only dares to refine one furnace a month.

took out a packet of Qi Replenishment Dispersion, mixed it with water and swallowed it, and after a while, Chu Xiu felt a stream of heat rising from his body, and he hurriedly began to run the innate skill to refine this medicinal power.
