Traveling through ancient times: living a different life
Chapter 211: Assigning tasks, refining pills
I slept until 3 p.m., then got up, put on my slippers, went to sit on the sofa in the small living room outside, took a cup from the coffee table, and poured a cup of tea from the big teapot. I had just finished a cup,
Xiaomai came up from downstairs and handed her the five shop deeds in the capital and the deeds to a thousand acres of fertile land that the emperor had awarded her this morning.
After a glance, she roughly knew where these shops were. Four of them were next to her auction house. The shops were quite large. It seemed that the emperor was very attentive to her.
Xiaomai was asked to call the housekeeper in the mansion to tell him something, because the emperor had given her five more shops. During her nap, someone from the palace had sent the morning reward to the princess's mansion.
Xiaomai immediately moved all these things to the second floor of the young lady's house, and waited for her to get up to put them in her treasure bag.
Biyue put all the gifts from the emperor into the treasure bag, then asked Xiaomai to comb her hair into a simple bun, put the pearl flower in it, put on her sandals, and went to the first floor hall with Xiaomai.
The housekeeper of the mansion was a middle-aged man in his 30s who was sent by the wife of Duke Dingyuan, Jiang Zhenzhu, some time ago. His name was Meng Haosheng. He was the eldest son of the housekeeper of Duke Dingyuan's mansion. He had managed the Duke Dingyuan's mansion with his father for many years and was very experienced.
Because the family members of Princess Biyue's mansion all came from the countryside and had no experience in managing such a large mansion, so they asked him to come over and gave him detailed instructions.
When you go there to be a housekeeper, you must put the Chen family first in everything. Don't think that you are superior to others just because you came from Dingyuan Mansion. Do you know who the princess is? She is a goddess of her time. It is such an honor to be a housekeeper in her house.
She was already delighted to come to the Princess's mansion to work when she heard the Duke's wife's arrangement. How could she have any other ideas? The Princess was the person she admired the most.
So in the more than one month in the mansion, he worked reliably, managed his servants well, and did everything in a comprehensive manner, which won the praise of Chen Qingyun and the grandparents at home.
He came to the boudoir of the princess's mansion and saw the princess sitting on the sofa up close for the first time. She had a simple bun on her head with only a pearl hairpin in it. She was wearing a light purple rosa dress. Her face was not made up, her skin was white and delicate, and her eyes were as bright as the moon under her willow eyebrows. She had a high nose bridge and red lips without any makeup.
She was very beautiful. Although she was still young, she had a heavenly appearance. She was wearing a pair of shoes that she had never seen before. I dared not look directly at the princess's face, so I hurried over, bowed and said,
"Your Highness, you asked me to come here. What do you want me to do?"
"It's nothing important. I just want you to go to the capital and find the family who renovated the princess's mansion last time to renovate the four shops outside the auction house. The work must be completed within a week."
After saying that, he handed him the decoration drawings. He took the drawings, bowed to Biyue, and then walked out.
Biyue also instructed Xiaohua and Xiaomai to call Chen Chen, Dongnanxibei and others over, saying that she had something to tell them.
The two of them went out to look for someone. Bi Yue thought again. This time she went to the border again. It took almost a month. The auction house was delayed again and again. The auction house had to be opened in a week at the latest. Not long after, Chen Chen and his men arrived.
Bi Yue took out a stack of papers and handed them to them, asking them to take a look at them. The auction house needed to recruit 15 to 20 waiters (male and female, aged around 50 to 120 years old), who would also be responsible for hygiene.
"If you can't find a better one, go to the human tooth market to buy one. Remember to ask Aunt Ding from the mansion. She has more experience in selecting people. You can handle these things. I will make pills in the afternoon because I will definitely sell pills after the auction house opens."
After hearing the princess's order, everyone went about their business.
Biyue went back upstairs, changed into her usual clothes, went to the alchemy room, and asked Xiaomai to call the two brothers Che Qianjin and Li Xiong over.
After an incense stick of time, Xiaomai brought the three of them to the alchemy room. After they came in, they saw Biyue and saluted respectfully.
"Your servant greets Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Bi Yue said to them, "From now on, when you follow me to study, you don't need to call me slave, you should call me subordinate. You are all my subordinates, do you understand?"
When the three heard what the princess said, they were very happy. From now on, they would be the princess's subordinates instead of slaves. Everyone likes to be a slave, and everyone likes to be a superior.
"I understand, Your Highness."
After saying that, Bi Yue took out the jade token of the elementary skills and placed it on the center of the eyebrows of the three of them. After receiving the information, the three of them' eyes lit up.
Bi Yue said to them, "This is the elementary technique. Those who join our sect must first learn these techniques, so that they can further improve their cultivation in the future. After practicing for a period of time and making progress, they can pass the assessment and enter the intermediate technique.
After you have mastered the intermediate skills, you can practice the advanced skills. After you have mastered the advanced skills, you can start practicing. These three skills are to strengthen your body and bones, train your Qi and Qi, and make you use them freely so that you can better cultivate immortality. I hope you will practice hard and not be afraid of hardship. "
The three of them knelt down and kowtowed to Bi Yue, "Thank you, Princess, for your cultivation."
"Li Xiong will be the manager for a few more days."
After assigning the three of them, I let them go out, closed the door, and started to make pills inside. Today I made hemostatic pills and bone-setting pills. These two kinds of pills have higher application rates.
From the medicine garden in Lingtu, I took 10 portions of each medicinal material and placed them aside. I started in the alchemy room in the afternoon, practicing with 20 portions of elixirs, one furnace at a time, until the evening of Hai time. A total of 20 portions of medicinal materials were all practiced.
Although the quality of the pill is intermediate, the pill is smooth and translucent, and the medicinal fragrance is fragrant. The system said,
"This pill is really good. For example, if a soldier who is injured and bleeding on the battlefield takes one pill, the bleeding will stop immediately. The same goes for the bone-setting pill. After taking one pill, the wound will be fixed and the bones will be connected in a short time. If you add some medicinal powder, the wound will be healed in three to five days. These two pills can be refined in large quantities. When the auction house opens, business will surely be booming."
After Bi Yue heard what the system said, she became more confident. It was now midnight. She packed 20 medicinal pills into boxes, put them into her treasure bag, left the room, and came to her own boudoir. Xiao Mai saw Bi Yue coming back and hurriedly asked,
"Miss, you've been in there for the whole afternoon. You must be exhausted. It's so late. Go wash up and take a rest."
Bi Yue said to her, "It will be too late in the future. You don't have to wait for me. Go to bed early. I will go to bed after I come back and wash up. There is nothing I can help you with."
"Got it, miss. I won't wait for you next time!"
