Chapter 45 Rare medicinal herbs

Zhang Dalin entered Xia He's consultation room, and saw her sitting behind the desk, resting her chin on her hands, staring at the medical books on the desk, pursing her lips and chuckling from time to time.

That way, Zhang Dalin would never believe that she was reading a book.

Seeing that she had come in for a while, and Xia He didn't notice it, Zhang Dalin had to remind her aloud. "Cough! Xia He."

Xia He raised his head from his own thoughts, seeing him, with a smile on his face, still resting his chin on his hands. "Zhang Dalin, you're here! Do you need me?"

Zhang Dalin glanced at her. "I saw that you didn't go to eat, so I came over to have a look."

Xia He looked at the sky outside. "It's almost lunch time!"

The pharmacy provides lunch, and everyone goes to the shantang for lunch at noon every day.

"Then have you eaten?" Xia He asked him.

"Not yet." Zhang Dalin asked curiously. "I see that you laughed so happily just now, what a good thing."

Xia He didn't hide it from him. "I met Ye Jiu this morning."

"Yejiu? Who is it?" Why didn't he remember knowing this person.

Only then did Xia He remember that Zhang Dalin didn't know Ye Jiu's name yet. "It's the boy from Ruyi Building."

"So his name is Ye Jiu." Zhang Dalin smiled knowingly when he heard this. "You even know people's names! Did he tell you?"

Xia He smiled and nodded. "Um."

Zhang Dalin said seriously. "Then you should hurry up and eat your lunch as a celebration."

Xia He. "..."

After lunch, an old man over fifty years old came to the pharmacy.He didn't come to see a doctor, but claimed that he was here to sell rare medicinal materials.

As soon as the words came out, the whole pharmacy was boiling.However, the old man still refused to show others what he brought, and only said that the sale must be discussed with someone who can make decisions in the pharmacy.

It wasn't until shopkeeper Liang appeared that the old man followed him to the meeting room.

The two talked for a short time, and they came out after only about half a stick of incense.

"If the old man still has medicinal materials to sell in the future, he can come to the pharmacy and look for me, Liang Yixuan." Shopkeeper Liang cupped his hands at the old man.

Xia He watched the shopkeeper Liang personally send the old man out, and also heard that he reported his name, and directly stated that if there is a deal next time, he can go to him directly, so he knew that the deal must be done.

Judging from this situation, the rare medicinal materials that the old man talked about must be worthy of the word rare.

Shopkeeper Liang went to the door of the pharmacy to send the old man back. Seeing more than half of the people in the pharmacy gathered in the lobby, he shook his head and chuckled. "It seems that everyone is very curious about this rare medicinal material! Hehe, it's okay, it's okay. The doctors in the pharmacy will follow me to the meeting room. As for the others, let's all leave."

Everyone was very excited when they heard it.

The doctors in the pharmacy are happy that they are lucky enough to see the rare medicinal materials that the old people say.Although the rest of the people couldn't see it in person, according to the old rules, the doctors could talk to them when they came out.

Zhang Dalin tugged on La Xiahe's sleeve. "You are also a doctor in the pharmacy, so hurry up. Come out and remember to tell me what kind of rare method this rare medicinal material is."

Xia He nodded, and followed the other doctors to the conference room.

There are about seven or eight doctors present in the pharmacy today, and they barely form a circle around the desk.

There was a box on the desk. Shopkeeper Liang opened the box, and inside was covered with a red silk cloth.

When everyone looked at that thing, they were all nervous.Xia He was also affected by this atmosphere, staring at the red silk cloth without blinking.

As shopkeeper Liang raised his hand and lifted the red silk cloth, the room was silent for an instant.

It was so quiet that even a needle could be heard in the room.

Looking at the thing lying in the box, Xia He was terrified and shocked.

"Cough!" She coughed as she choked on the saliva she swallowed.

The sound was not loud, but in this silent room, it was extremely clear, breaking the silence.

Doctor Yang looked at the bright red fruit in the box, and couldn't help but ask shopkeeper Liang. "Shopkeeper, what is this?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded.

Xia He was especially good at it.

Shopkeeper Liang glanced at everyone one by one, and saw that they all responded in unison. Since no one had seen the contents in the box, he pointed to the red fruit and explained. "This thing is called vermilion fruit. It can be used as medicine or eaten directly. It has the effects of prolonging life and beautifying the skin."

When Dr. Yang heard it, his eyes suddenly became more focused, and he pointed to the vermilion fruit in the box, amazed again and again. "I didn't expect this to be the vermilion fruit in the rumors. I heard that the growth environment of this thing is extremely demanding, it is not easy to feed, and it is hard to find in the world. It is my good fortune to see it in my lifetime."

When Dr. Chen heard it, he felt deeply.Take his word for it. "I heard that the vermilion fruit can not only be used as medicine to make soup, but also can be used as pills and pills after the pure essence is hand-held by the alchemist."

Shopkeeper Liang listened to what the two of them said, and nodded with a smile. "It seems that both Mr. Yang and Mr. Chen have heard of this vermilion fruit. As for other people who haven't heard of it, I can't blame you, because it is rarely mentioned in books. Even I accompanied Mr. Lin when I traveled all over the country in the early years. I saw it in an ancient book by chance."

Xia He pricked up his ears to listen to what they said, and he had a certain understanding of the vermilion fruit.

Although this thing is not a life-saving treasure, it is a necessity for the rich, prolonging life, beautifying the skin, which one is not something that the rich and powerful are eager to know.

She thought of the trees full of red fruits in a world, and suddenly felt that she was guarding a gold mountain and a silver mine.

Xia He was very annoyed in her heart. If she knew that the thing was not poisonous and had such wonderful effects, how could she keep guarding it until today.

Xia He was still a little dazed until he came out of the meeting room.

She returned to her consulting room, stabilized her emotions, and quickly made a decision.

Xia He picked more than a dozen vermilion fruits from one side of the world, and another red fruit from another tree.She packed the dozens of vermilion berries in a food box, and wrapped the red berries picked from another tree in a silk handkerchief and put them in a medicine box.

After finishing all this, she left the pharmacy with the food box and went straight to the place agreed with Xia Tingquan.

Seeing her, Xia Tingquan smiled happily and waved to her from a distance. "Sister, here, here."

Xia He smiled slightly as he looked at the half-grown boy who was waving at him in the carriage.

When getting into the carriage, Xia He glanced at the stall selling steamed buns, and saw two big men who had been monitoring Xia Tingquan's carriage quickly turned their heads, pretending to be serious about buying steamed buns.

After getting into the car and lowering the curtain, Xia Tingquan said. "If sister hadn't asked Cui Liu to bring me a message, when I left the house today and found out that they were following the young master, I would definitely hang him up and beat him up."

Xia He patted his head to comfort him. "Small intolerance can lead to chaos and big plans. You must not let the people in the house find out about your martial arts."

"I understand." Xia Tingquan nodded. "I have almost learned the inner strength method you gave me last time."

"Then put more thought into the Qinggong mental method I gave you two days ago."

What Xia He thinks is: When necessary, he can escape for his life.

Xia Tingquan nodded and pointed to the food box in her hand. "What delicious food did you bring?"

"Fruit bought on the road." Xia He took out two vermilion fruits from the food box and handed one of them to him.

She took a bite. "Crack!"

One bite, tender and juicy, extremely sweet and long aftertaste.

Xia He felt so regretful that his intestines turned green.

Thinking of the countless days of starvation, what is she doing?There is nothing more aggrieved than guarding Baoshan without knowing it.

Xia Tingquan looked at the fruit in his hand and thought it looked familiar, but he didn't think much about it.

After one bite, he was full of praise for the fruit and was extremely satisfied. "Sister, why don't you buy more of such delicious fruits."

Xia He seemed to be angry with the fruit, and took another big bite. "Tomorrow, I'll buy it for you again."
