Chapter 23 Don't Sell
It was early in the morning when he left the hospital. Ye Xiu drove Peng Shan home, but Peng Weimin and Peng Jianguo were not with Ye Xiu because they had something else to deal with.
Perhaps because of the night's running around, Peng Shan has fallen asleep in the car, while Ye Xiu is thinking about Mr. Peng's coma. He has decided to integrate into the life of ordinary people and will have more friends in the future. This time, Mr. Peng's matter also reminds him. This time, he can be lucky enough to wake up. What if Mr. Peng is not around next time, or others are injured?
Although Ye Xiu knows medical skills and even has a high level, it is because he relies on true qi. If he encounter a disease that has little effect on true qi, he will also be helpless.
"It seems that we have to refine some first aid elixir sometime." There is a record of alchemy in the Xuanming Zhenjing, but Ye Xiu has not tried it. In the past, he did not have that condition, but now because of the four elephant gathering array, his cultivation speed is not slow, so he does not think about alchemy. Instead, he focuses on cultivation, hoping to cultivate Zhenyuan quickly and open the ring. As a martial artist, how can he not yearn for the realm after the heavenly level!
"Unfortunately, medicinal materials are not easy to find, so we can only refine some ordinary elixir." He has never heard of those elixirs that can increase cultivation. Even if they are ordinary elixirs, many materials have long been extinct, just like ginseng. There are many ordinary ones, but there are few in thousands of years.
Sending Peng Shan home, Ye Xiu began to search for the elixir to be refined in his mind.
"It's you!" After a long time, Ye Xiu chose an elixir, intermittent elixir.
The intermittent elixir is made of ginseng and snow lotus as the main materials, supplemented by other medicinal materials. Ginseng belongs to yang, snow lotus belongs to yin, and yin and yang, which has the effect of life-sustaining. Even a dying patient can save his life by taking intermittent elixir. Moreover, the refining of intermittent elixir is relatively simple, which is suitable for people like Ye Xiu who try it for the first time.
Early the next morning, Ye Xiu rushed to the largest medicinal material market in Qingzhou.
As soon as he entered the medicinal materials market, Ye Xiu smelled the fragrance of medicine in the air, but what disappointed Ye Xiu was that although there were many snow lotus and ginseng, they could meet his requirements but did not see it. Although some poor medicinal materials can be used to refine intermittent elixir, the effect is much worse.
In a traditional Chinese medicine store, looking at the ginseng and snow lotus taken out by the boss, Ye Xiu couldn't help shaking his head.
"Boss, do you have any longer ginseng and snow lotus here?" Ye Xiu looked at a middle-aged man in his forties in front of him and asked.
"Sorry, this is already the best ginseng and snow lotus in the shop." The middle-aged man shook his head with a wry smile.
The ginseng and snow lotus he took out are both more than 70 years old and worth millions, but such medicinal materials still can't satisfy Ye Xiu.
"Mr. Ye, if you want hundreds of medicinal herbs, you can go to the imperial pharmacy to have a look. Which is the oldest brand in Qingzhou? It has a history of hundreds of years. Maybe there are medicinal herbs you need." The middle-aged man thought for a moment and said.
"Oh~" Hearing this, Ye Xiu's eyes lit up and quickly asked the address of the imperial pharmacy and rushed over.
Crossing a street, Ye Xiu saw the imperial pharmacy in the mouth of a middle-aged man. The two-story retro building was two or three times larger than the previous pharmacy, especially the three words imperial pharmacy on the plaque gave people a simple feeling.
"That's..." Looking at the red seal on the plaque, Ye Xiu recognized it at a glance that it was Kangxi's treasure seal!
"I hope it won't disappoint me this time." Ye Xiu had a few more expectations for the imperial pharmacy. If he can't find the medicinal materials he needs here, he will either lower the requirements or have to go to other cities to look for them.
There are not many people in the hall of the imperial pharmacy. In addition to some patients who are taking medicine, there is also an old man who is taking the pulse for the patient.
"Sir, do you want to see a doctor or take medicine?" A man in his twenties went to Ye Xiu and asked.
"Catch the medicine." Ye Xiu said, "Do you have the older ginseng and snow lotus?"
"Yes, I don't know how many years you want?" The man nodded.
"At least 100 years, the longer the better." Ye Xiudao.
"Ah..." The man was stunned and looked at Ye Xiu with a surprised face.
When other people in the hall heard this, they also looked over. Hundred-year-year ginseng and snow lotus are the king of ginseng, worth millions, not roadside cabbage.
"We have 70 or 80 years old here. Why don't you take a look first?" The man came to his senses and said quickly.
"Isn't it more than a hundred years?" A trace of disappointment flashed in Ye Xiu's eyes.
"This gentleman wants ginseng and snow lotus for more than 100 years?" Suddenly, an old voice sounded, but the old man who saw the patient not far away came over.
Ye Xiu nodded.
"I take the liberty to ask, what do you want to do with these medicinal herbs?" The old man looked at Ye Xiu.
"Do you still need to ask about the use of medicine?" Ye Xiu frowned.
"That's not true." The old man shook his head quickly.
Pharmacies usually ask about some taboo medicinal materials, but ginseng and snow lotus are not taboo medicinal materials. Generally speaking, there is no need to ask, but the old man is very curious. Ginseng and snow lotus are one yang and one yin. What do the young people in front of them buy?
"The shop has more than 100 years of ginseng and snow lotus. Do you really need it?" The old man suddenly said.
Hearing this, Ye Xiu was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Is there really ginseng and snow lotus for more than a hundred years?"
It's no wonder that Ye Xiu is so excited. He has visited most of the medicinal materials market before and has not found medicinal materials for more than 100 years. Now he is extremely happy to know that the imperial pharmacy has them.
"Have you asked for your friend's name yet?"
"Ye Xiu!"
"Mr. Ye really needs it. Please follow me to the back hall." The old man smiled.
Following the old man to the back hall, I saw that there were really many apprentices sorting out medicinal materials in the back hall.
"I didn't expect that the imperial pharmacy would still retain the ancient medicinal material production process." Looking at the medicine gate and the medicine crushing, Ye Xiu couldn't help sighing.
He has only heard his master mention these things, and he hasn't seen them for so many years.
"Let Mr. Ye laugh!" The old man smiled, but there was a trace of pride in his expression.
The hundreds of years of history of the imperial pharmacy has always maintained the production process of medicinal materials left by our ancestors, and also strives for excellence in medicinal materials. Even in this modern era of developed Western medicine, the imperial pharmacy is also famous in Qingzhou, which is not something that ordinary pharmacies can do.
Entering a simple office, the old man took out five quaint wooden boxes from the safe.
"It turned out to be a box made of sandalwood!" Looking at the wooden box, Ye Xiu sighed.
These five wooden boxes alone are worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. The value of medicinal herbs in them can be imagined.
"Good eyesight!" The old man's eyes lit up.
"Ye Xiaoyou, please have a look." With that, the old man opened the five wooden boxes and saw three ginseng and two snow lotus in the five wooden boxes.
"Sure enough, it's all more than 100 years!" Ye Xiu saw the origin of the medicinal materials in front of him at a glance, which surprised the old people beside him. You should know that even the disciples and grandchildren under him did not have such eyesight.
Ye Xiu calculated in his heart, then selected two ginseng and snow lotus, and looked at the old man, "Sir, I want these four herbs."
"No sale!" The old man shook his head with a smile.
Hearing the words, Ye Xiu's face changed slightly and looked at the old man puzzledly. Since he didn't sell it, why did he come in?
