I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!
Chapter 126 Aconite
It is not that easy to turn poison into medicine.
There must be aconite for sale on the market.
But people still want to buy it at a high price, which means they have higher requirements.
Song Jin asked casually: "How much did the other party offer? What are the requirements?"
"The other party said that the aconite sold on the market is more or less toxic, which means that the amount consumed will not kill a person. However, this time the patient is very precious and cannot tolerate any risk of toxicity. Therefore, the reward requires high-quality and effective aconite."
Xing Lun held up a finger and said, "As long as you pass the test, in addition to the silver for the medicinal materials, you will be rewarded with an additional 5,000 taels of silver."
Song Jin was silent. "The bid is so high, it's probably for saving lives. Even if I make it, I won't be able to make it in time."
What is reviving the body to save the adverse situation?
Hui Yang, to restore Yang Qi; to cure reverse, to cure reverse. That is why people are so anxious to find Fuzi, which is mostly used for critical cases of Yang Qi loss.
To put it in simple terms, there is a dying person who urgently needs a life-saving medicine.
Xing Lun asked his parents and two chefs, but they all said they couldn't completely remove the toxicity of the aconite. He had no idea how many days it would take for Song Jin to prepare it.
"Boss, will it take many days to roast this?"
“It takes at least seven days, and the process is complicated.”
In his previous life, Song Jin knew a method of preparing medicine by combining water and fire, which could not only reduce the toxicity to a minimum, but also improve the efficacy. However, this method of preparation did not come from the Song Pharmacopoeia.
Song Jin had saved an old man in her previous life. Unexpectedly, the old man was an old pharmacist who had fled from Nancheng County to Huizhou. Seeing that Song Jin was interested in preparing medicinal materials, the old man taught her for a while. Otherwise, with only a pharmacopoeia and no one to guide her, Song Jin's learning would be just theoretical.
Song Jin asked again: "Do you know who offered the reward?"
"I heard that he came to Huizhou Prefecture with a noble from the capital. There is a reward guaranteed by the government, so there is no need to worry about encountering a scammer."
If Xing Lun hadn't figured out the matter, he wouldn't have dared to send it to Song Jin.
Song Jin heard him mention the noble person.
Helian Pu subconsciously came to my mind.
Song Jin met Helian Pu twice.
He has an air of nobility about him, and one can tell at a glance that he is of noble origin.
Even though Qin Chi did not elaborate on his uncle's origins, Song Jin could still see the clues with his extra lifetime of experience, and then there was the illness of Helian Pu.
The last time I saw him was when the baby was one month old.
Song Jin was not sure whether the person who urgently needed medicinal materials was Helian Pu.
With only these few uncertainties, Song Jin decided to prepare the aconite first, but he still instructed: "Send someone to inquire more."
Inquiring is one thing, and fabricating is another.
This time, Xing Lun brought more than ten kilograms of Aconitum roots to the pharmacy. They had been cleaned and no dirt was seen on them.
Song Jin put on leather gloves and checked them one by one.
The skin of the root of Aconitum is black.
This thing is obviously highly poisonous.
When she saw Song Jin picking it up, Yin Long hurried over and said anxiously, "Young lady, let me do it. This thing is poisonous. It will be troublesome if it touches you."
"It's okay. I'm wearing gloves."
Song Jin carefully picked out the best quality parts, and let Xing Lun deal with the rest. "Auntie Long, ask the medicine boy to get a basin of clean water, and ask someone to go to the utility room to get an hourglass, and change the basin of clean water every four hours."
“Should I add salt to the water?”
Yinlong asked another question.
Soaking in salt water can effectively remove toxins.
The kind used in Song Jin is not.
Soak in clean water for four days, and change the water every four hours, which means change the water three times a day.
This process is not difficult, but it is time-consuming. She can ask someone else to do it, but she will have to do everything afterwards by herself, and she has to take care of the household affairs before that.
It’s mainly about the two children.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
"You said you would stay in the pharmacy for the next two or three days?" Li looked at Song Jin in confusion.
Song Jin found an excuse, "There are too many things to do in the pharmacy, and I am also learning how to prepare medicinal materials from others."
She didn't say she knew how to cook it.
Li still trusted her daughter-in-law, but a normal mother-in-law would definitely not agree to her daughter-in-law being away from home for several days. However, the pharmacy was not far from Qinjiagou.
If you want to know whether it is true or not, just go and take a look.
Therefore, Li felt that Song Jin had no need to lie to her. "You are a woman who has been away from home for several days without anyone familiar to accompany you. It would not sound good if it got out."
"Auntie Long will accompany you."
Song Jin mentioned Yin Long.
Yinlong had lived in the Qin family for quite some time, so Li naturally knew her, but she was still hesitant.
You have to know that in this world, if an unmarried woman spends a night alone outside, her reputation will be ruined. Married women are not so demanding.
But it also depends on the husband's family being open-minded.
How should I answer when someone asks me about these three days away from home?
He said he was going to work in a pharmacy, but there were always some people who liked to talk nonsense and spread rumors.
Song Jin knew what Li was worried about.
It's just that I'm afraid she will have a bad reputation.
Song Jin suggested, "How about mother take the two children and stay with me in the pharmacy for a few days?"
"Well, is this convenient?" Li was a little tempted.
Since she married into Qinjiagou, she has never lived outside.
Song Jin smiled and said, "The pharmacy has room for you to stay, and there are people who will help you take care of the baby."
Li knew that Song Jin must go.
I just told Boss Qin.
Boss Qin thought there was no problem and said he would go to the pharmacy to find them when he had time. "It's close. I'll walk faster and I'll be there in a quarter of an hour."
The man walked quickly and could walk several miles in a quarter of an hour.
Let Boss Qin take care of this matter.
Song Jin was told that she had to go to the pharmacy to work and had to work at night. Li was worried so she took the two children to accompany her, and Qin Lao Da was worried so he sent her there personally.
Old Man Qin would not stop Song Jin's affairs, but would just let him go early and come back early.
After listening to half of what was said, Old Liu had a very long face and stepped forward to block them, refusing to let Boss Qin load his things onto the carriage.
Boss Qin frowned, "Mom, I asked Dad, and he agreed. Don't be unreasonable."
"Why are you leaving? Who will do the work in the fields when you're gone?" Old Liu was just looking for trouble.
"Don't worry, mom. I will come back to work during the day." Boss Qin also knew that the family was very busy at this time, especially in addition to the work in the fields, this year there was also the medicinal fields.
The Salvia miltiorrhiza planted in the medicinal field grew better than expected.
The harvest will be in half a month.
The second and third children alone cannot handle the job.
Li hadn't handed over the money for half a year, and Old Liu had been furious. "You are not allowed to go. I can't say for sure. No one can go out."
"What on earth do you want to do?" Boss Qin also became angry.
"Your wife hasn't paid money to the public treasury for half a year! If she wants to go out, she must pay the money she lacks for the past six months first." Old Mrs. Liu finally stated her purpose.
All this fuss is about money.
Song Xiu was washing clothes while gloating over his misfortune.
Song Jin turned to look at Old Man Qin, "Grandfather, aren't you going to talk to Grandma? There's no point in stopping me like this. My mother-in-law has been taking care of the children for the past six months and has no time to do embroidery."
"My vision is blurry now. I won't embroider anything anymore." Li, who had been quiet, suddenly said this.
This sentence is undoubtedly like a bolt from the blue.
Old Mrs. Liu, who had been sitting at home collecting money for twenty years, suddenly lost this income, which was like cutting off her own flesh and blood.
Old Man Qin didn't expect this to be the case. "Big Boss's Wife, is this really the reason?"
Li looked at Old Man Qin calmly, "If you don't believe me, you can go out and ask around. What will happen to the eyes of embroiderers when they reach my age?"
Now even Song Jin looked at Li worriedly.
