Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

Li Mengyue has her own plan for the price of the soul-restoring pills.

Not to mention that the medicinal materials needed to make the Soul-Returning Pills are precious, the process is also very complicated.

If she did not have the advanced pharmaceutical technology of the later era, it would be impossible to extract the essence from the medicinal materials.

They also used thousand-year-old ginseng, thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and thousand-year-old snow lotus. These three thousand-year-old medicinal herbs would cause a sensation if any one of them was taken out, let alone using all three at once.

She used some of it to prepare the antidote for the cold poison, and planned to make most of the rest into soul-restoring pills.

Of course, it won’t be used up, and some will be saved for emergencies.

Although she has always been frugal in making medicine and does not waste easily, she only used a little during the experimental stage. It is estimated that the remaining herbs can be used to make at least a thousand soul-restoring pills.

It seems like a large quantity, but after using up these herbs, she can't guarantee that she won't encounter thousand-year-old ginseng, thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, or thousand-year-old snow lotus in the future, so the price of the Soul-Returning Pill is destined to be high.

Now she offered a price of ten thousand taels, which was not affordable for ordinary people, and the price would increase in the future.

She would sell these soul-restoring pills for ten thousand taels for two reasons.

On the one hand, from the attitudes of several county magistrates towards the locust plague, she could see that they still cared about the people. Regardless of whether they had the ability to stop the locust plague, at least their attitude was there.

On the other hand, starting a business in the future, whether selling paper or medicine, is not something that ordinary people can do.

Now she is no longer the daughter of a prime minister, but just a powerless rural girl.

If you want to do the paper and medicine businesses, which are sure to make profits, you must have someone to back you up, otherwise you will definitely not be able to continue.

There are only seven counties in the entire Qingshan Prefecture, and currently six county magistrates are on the scene, and all of them are interested in the Soul-Returning Pill.

Isn't this giving her an opportunity? Although ten thousand taels per pill is cheap, as long as she can establish a relationship with the six county magistrates, she won't have to worry too much about anyone causing trouble, and she can also promote the Soul-Returning Pill better.

Although she is not afraid of things, she doesn't want to waste her time and energy on bad people and bad things. Wouldn't it be better to spend this time to accompany her children?

What she didn't expect was that there was actually a county magistrate who couldn't even come up with 10,000 taels.

But the price she set was not easy to change at will. Wu Zhen couldn't afford it, and there was nothing she could do. She couldn't lower the price or give it away for free. Wouldn't that be too unfair to the other county magistrates?

However, she couldn't favor one over the other and let Wu Zhen have any complaints about her because of this matter.

"Master Wu, it doesn't matter if you can't come up with the silver now. I can leave one for you. Whenever you want to buy it in the future, no matter how much the price goes up, I will sell it to you for 10,000 taels."

"Thank you, thank you very much Miss Li."

Wu Zhen understood what Li Mengyue meant, and he also knew that the price of the Soul-Returning Pills at ten thousand taels was not high. He didn't know how high the price would rise to in the future.

But he really wanted the Soul-Restoring Pill so badly that even though he knew the price would go up, he still had to be thick-skinned and reserve a spot.

After all, this is a life-saving medicine, and it’s worth spending any money on it.

After talking about the soul-restoring pills, the woman from Xinghua Village had already dealt with a lot of locusts.

Li Mengyue thought about the purpose of dealing with the locusts and didn't want to waste any more time, so she asked someone to start a fire and fish out the locusts soaked in concentrated salt water.

A large number of processed locusts were quickly fished out and the moisture was drained.

Zhou Juan took out a large amount of chili powder from the car. As soon as she opened the bag, a choking smell spread.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

There were sneezing sounds everywhere, and the smell of the locusts themselves was diluted.

Zheng Shao, Sun Biao and others were immersed in the excitement of getting the Soul-Restoring Pill and couldn't help but look over.

It was really that red stuff, and the smell it gave off was so pungent.

They don't want to sneeze, they can't help it.

"Miss Li, what is this red noodle?"

"Chili noodles."

"Chili powder? Never heard of it."

Zheng Shao was unfamiliar with the word "chili" and had no idea what it was.

However, he asked again with a studious attitude of not being ashamed to ask questions.

“What is chili powder used for?”

"You'll find out later."

Li Mengyue didn't say it directly, but kept it a secret.

Speaking of these peppers, I have to praise the system, this little foodie.

In the past, when she made spicy seasonings, she used the dogwood she picked in the mountains.

But Tuanzi complained that the taste was not very good, and the spiciness was not as good as chili peppers, and it was not stimulating enough, so he insisted on eating chili peppers.

She ignored the system. She never thought that Tuanzi would work so hard to eat a bite of food. He just durianed out several kilograms from his teeth and exchanged them for tens of thousands of kilograms of peppers in the mall.

This means that the space now not only has mountains of food, but also piles of peppers.

Even though she likes spicy food, she couldn't help but feel a headache when she saw so many peppers.

However, the peppers that Tuanzi made are not without uses.

She found that there was no crop like pepper in the Zhou Dynasty, the diet was light, and few people had ever eaten spicy food.

Next spring, she decided to plant some peppers in her own fields and also ask villagers from seven villages to plant them. No matter how much they plant, she would buy it back at a high price.

Maybe in a few years, as spicy food is promoted, Qingshan Town will become a chili production base. Merchants from all over the country will come here to purchase goods, which will drive the town's economic development and improve the living standards of the villagers.

As for food, there is no need to worry about this issue.

After all, the food stored in the space is not fake, and the villagers will harvest peppers in due time.

As long as you bring it to her, you can sell it for money or exchange it for food. Even if you don't plant a single rice in the field, you don't have to worry about having nothing to eat.

Soon, with the help of the villagers, big pots were set up and some people sat in front of the stove and lit the fire.

The big pot was heated, and Li Mengyue scooped out a large amount of lard with a spoon. Under the high temperature, the lard melted in an instant.

Li Mengyue kept watching the oil temperature. When it was about 50% to 60% hot, she poured the locusts that had been drained of water into the pan.

"Crack!"

"Chichi..."

"Bang bang bang..."

All kinds of sounds came out of the pot.

"A small fire."

"Ok."

After the high fire in the stove turned into a low fire, the locusts' stomachs slowly swelled up.

After becoming a token of allegiance, Li Mengyue picked up a bamboo colander from the side, scooped up the fried locusts in the pot, and poured them into a winnowing basket.

Zheng Shao, Sun Biao, Wu Zhen and others standing nearby were already stunned.

From Li Mengyue's actions, they had already realized that these fried locusts were meant to be eaten.

Zheng Shao felt that this was in Lanlong County, and as the county magistrate, he had to take the lead and not offend Miss Li.

Besides, he saw clearly how Li Mengyue handled the locusts before. Every locust was washed clean and edible.
