90s: Koi beauty reborn and became rich

If adding millet is because it has a "little secret recipe", spraying vinegar after frying is the most scientific choice among the various processing techniques recorded in ancient books after being verified by modern medicine.

Zheng Mingcai and his son, as well as a few other knowledgeable people, watched this and nodded in agreement - this step was indeed recorded in some authoritative pharmacological classics, and although the practice was slightly different, the principle was absolutely correct!

The old man at the back of the crowd nodded frequently, praising secretly, and his gray beard trembled with joy.

Putting aside other things, the little girl's method of making medicine is at least very particular!

What's more, she doesn't just pay attention, she really understands!

Especially the step of adding millet, which is a great way to make food and medicine have the same origin, it’s really great!

The girl looks no more than 20 years old, with a simple and green face, but when she makes medicine, her brows reveal an expression that does not belong to her age at all - a calmness that comes from having mastered everything, and a meticulous and serious composure.

Moreover, she has a solid foundation in identifying and making medicines, and her skills of "looking, smelling, touching, and tasting" are all solid. Her techniques are both steady and swift, as if she has practiced for more than ten years, and it seems as if she has been practicing since birth.

The only word to describe it is "stunning".

And the fact that she had just saved the situation in the front hall was clearly the fault of the Zhengs and their son and the old pharmacist...

This girl was confident and sharp, not only winning the competition but also resolving the awkwardness.

Such a good seedling...

Hey!

The old man's mind moved again and again, and he couldn't help moving it.

Wang Quan's face turned red and white as he watched Yi Congxin methodically wipe and spray vinegar, then he looked down at his own...

His mentality has changed from anger and irritation to fear and panic.

Even if an outsider doesn't understand, can't he see it himself?

He knew that considering his age and experience, it was inappropriate for him to compete with a little girl again and again, but he could barely say that it was because the other siblings spoke rudely and even insulted him physically that he could not control his anger.

But now, it’s okay to just compete, but he actually lost?

I’m afraid I won’t be able to stop other people from gossiping about me afterwards!

And his bright future was over from then on!

Wang Quan heard a buzzing in his ears and his face turned pale.

He was still feeling upset and angry, and even forgot to submit the chicken gizzard lining he had prepared to Zheng and his son for evaluation.

The concoction competition lasted only a little over ten minutes.

Everyone was just watching for fun. The little girl was showing off her skills, and there was nothing wrong with the old man's actions. But who of these two people made the better medicine?

The little girl handed the cured medicine to the "referee", so why did the old man just stand there motionless?

Are you tired?

Or is it just a grand ceremony, waiting for people to invite him?

You're not really scared, are you?!

The onlookers were no longer as quiet as before and began to talk.

Except for the top masters, no one else could tell who would win or lose. They just saw that Yi Congxin was calm and composed, while the old pharmacist frowned and looked frustrated, which clearly showed that the winner had been determined.

Suddenly, a powerful voice sounded from behind the crowd.

"it is good!"

Zheng Mingcai looked up and saw an old man squeezing out from the crowd. It couldn’t be said that he was squeezing, after all, there was a man in black next to him, like... his bodyguard?

The man in black was actually respectfully clearing the way for him?

Who is this person?

Why is it such a grand ceremony?

No one knew who this old man was, but the man in black looked like someone they had only seen in Hong Kong movies...

There was a sudden commotion among the crowd.

The old man strode forward with steady steps. He walked straight to Yi Congxin and picked up a piece of prepared chicken gizzard lining.

Just now he was far away and could only see the technique clearly, but could not see the result clearly.

The piece of chicken in his hand was grayish-yellow in color, crispy in texture, and puffy with only a few burnt spots. He broke off a small piece and put it in his mouth to taste it. The combination of several flavors, slightly fishy and bitter, was faintly permeated with the aroma of grain and vinegar. After swallowing, there was a sweet aftertaste, and a faint medicinal aroma diffused in the mouth.

The old man couldn't help but praise again: "Good!"

Yi Congxin inexplicably felt as if he had seen this old man somewhere before.

Unfortunately, the original owner's memories were too many and too complicated, and she couldn't remember anything at all.

Even so, the old gentleman was full of bearing, elegance and dignity, and had the demeanor of a great elder.

Moreover, he praised her "work" in public, which made Yi Congxin have some good feelings towards her in her heart.

Yi Congxin bowed slightly to the old man and thanked him with a smile.

Zheng Mingcai and his son also felt that this person looked familiar.

Zheng Donggen was the one with the sharp eyes and quick mind. "Dad, isn't this Mr. Zong Qizheng, the old man?"

Zong Qizheng?

Zheng Mingcai and Yi Congxin's brains exploded at the same time!

Zheng Mingcai immediately remembered.

Special consultant for the Herbal Exchange Conference!

He had long heard of the high esteem and prestige of this elder, and had sought every avenue to meet him, but had been politely declined several times...

He never expected that today, Elder Zong would come to his shop in person!

"Advisor Zong! Mr. Zong!"

Zheng Mingcai was overjoyed and hurried forward to shake Zong Qizheng's hand, greeting him with excessive enthusiasm.

Yi Congxin also reacted.

This old gentleman is the president of Nanming University of Traditional Chinese Medicine!

That is, the president of the original owner's university.

Yi Congxin immediately put on a docile demeanor and bowed respectfully again, "Hello, Principal Zong."

Zong Qi's hands were tightly held by Zheng Mingcai, making it difficult for him to escape.

He was startled when he heard this, and asked with a smile: "Little girl, do you know me too?"

"Principal Zong, my name is Yi Congxin, and I'm a student in our school's Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine. I met you at the school's general meeting earlier."

Yi Congxin never thought that he would meet someone from school during the summer vacation. The key point is that it was not an ordinary person, but the principal!

This situation... Zong Qizheng really didn't expect it.

Seeing that the little girl was smart and knowledgeable about medicine, he thought that no matter whether she was studying or not, he must recruit her as his "outer disciple".

did not expect!

Not only does she not need to be recruited, she has already been a student of her own school!

Doesn’t this directly make you an “inner disciple”?

What a surprise!

But in a moment, Zong Qi was being polite with Zheng Mingcai, but he had already arranged Yi Congxin's training plan in his mind.

Zheng Mingcai held onto Zong Qizheng's hand and refused to let go. He had finally caught him alive, so how could he let him go like that?!

"Master Zong, it is truly an honor for us to have you visit Zhengji today to give us guidance. Quick! Please come into our room and have some of the finest Dahongpao..."

His mouth was grinning from ear to ear, and he was about to "kidnap" Zong Qizheng to the tea room in the inner room.

Zong Qizheng smiled slightly and interrupted him, saying, "Boss Zheng, let's not rush to drink tea. There is still a case that has not been resolved."

His gaze turned towards Yi Congxin and the dejected Wang Quan on the other side.
