Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 510 Bing Xin Fruit Obtained

After refining the bone-strengthening pill, Yang Zhengshan picked out several common pills in the acquired realm to practice with.

With the experience of refining bone-strengthening pills, it became much easier for Yang Zhengshan to refine other pills. He would succeed after just one or two tries.

In fact, refining pills is not difficult. As long as you strictly follow the recipe and be careful and rigorous, you can succeed.

The real difficulty lies in collecting the medicinal materials needed to refine the pills.

Most of the elixirs used in the Postnatal Realm are precious medicines, and a precious medicine is extremely rare for low-level warriors in the Postnatal Realm.

The reason why Yang Zhengshan could squander so much was because he had the Lingquan Space. If it were anyone else, it would be impossible for them to use the precious medicine to practice.

And Yang Zhengshan really has no shortage of precious medicines.

As September came, the news about how the Xingyuan Fruit Tree was handled and the results spread throughout the martial arts world. Although this matter had little to do with the vast majority of warriors, it did not prevent them from talking about it with relish.

The final result of Cuixia Valley and Xingyuan Fruit Tree seems to be no different from those of the Three Valleys, but in fact it has a great impact on Darong Jianghu.

The most important impact is that because of the emergence of the Xingyuan Fruit Tree, innate warriors are no longer so mysterious and low-key in the world.

In the past, innate warriors rarely appeared in the world. Many people in the world knew about the existence of innate warriors, but only a few had actually seen one.

The incident in Cuixia Valley seemed to have torn off the mysterious veil of innate warriors, and exposed them to the world.

Also because of what happened in Cuixia Valley, those innate warriors no longer hid themselves and spent the whole day hiding in the deep mountains and forests.

Since the beginning of September, Yang Zhengshan has received several seniors who came to visit him in his mansion.

They came to exchange wine, exchanging precious medicine for herbal wine.

Of course, they also wanted to come to Kyoto to see the situation in the court and see if the court's attitude towards them had changed.

In just half a month, Yang Zhengshan exchanged one hundred jars of herbal wine and harvested twenty precious medicinal herbs.

However, this was just the beginning. In the following days, not only did the innate warriors send people to exchange for Baicao Niang, but even many dignitaries in Kyoto came to Yang Zhengshan to exchange wine.

The reputation of Baicao Niang was completely spread. Even Emperor Yanping came to join in the fun and specially asked Chen Zhongshu to exchange some Baicao Niang with Yang Zhengshan.

In the Marquis's Mansion, Yang Zhengshan looked at Chen Zhongshu and said with a smile: "If Your Majesty wants to drink, I will offer you some!"

Chen Zhongshu said: "His Majesty said that if Marquis Jing'an doesn't accept the precious medicine, then he will give away all the wine in his house!"

Yes! I have to take this precious medicine!

Emperor Yanping had a nice idea and actually wanted him to donate all the wine.

Yang Zhengshan glanced at Wu Hai beside him in displeasure, and Wu Hai immediately stepped forward and took the three jade boxes from the eunuch behind Chen Zhongshu.

"Your Majesty, do you have any other instructions?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"Haha, His Majesty has no other instructions, but His Majesty asked Lord Yang to walk around the imperial city more often if he has nothing to do, and not to stay at home all day!" Chen Zhongshu said with a smile.

"..."

Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but smile.

During this period he did stay at home often. Firstly, he was immersed in alchemy and couldn't extricate himself, and secondly, he was too lazy to pay attention to the right and wrong in the court.

The establishment of the Imperial Merchants Bureau solved the court's financial problems to a large extent. The establishment of the Shangwu Temple further strengthened the court's control over the martial arts world. Coupled with the incident in Cuixia Valley, on the surface, Dayong's court seemed to be thriving, but in fact, Dayong was still a broken basket, and Emperor Yanping was as incompetent as Emperor Chengping.

Paperhanger, repair whatever is broken.

Although Yang Zhengshan's performance in the court was very eye-catching during this period, he actually did not participate in the struggles in the court.

The ones related to Yang Zhengshan are the Imperial Merchants Department, Shangwu Temple, and Yanwu Pavilion, but these are all newly established government offices.

Although there are court struggles involved, they are not the core of the court struggles.

In other words, the core of the current struggle in Darong’s court is in the cabinet, that is, the struggle between Song Yuange and Zhou Yunsong.

Song Yuan Ge, the chief minister of the cabinet, has taken over as the chief minister of the cabinet since Li Siyuan resigned and returned to his hometown. It has been more than a year to this day.

Zhou Yunsong, an assistant minister of the cabinet and concurrently the Minister of Rites, entered the cabinet when Song Yuange became the chief assistant of the cabinet.

Among the five cabinet ministers now, these two are the most powerful, and they are the two who are competing.

The reason why this situation has occurred is also to blame Emperor Yanping. Emperor Yanping played a balancing act at the time, and the result is that the situation has become like this now.

Yang Zhengshan had no interest in these things, and was too lazy to listen to the civil servants arguing all day long, so he simply did not go to court.

Anyway, he is just a martial arts master in the Martial Arts Pavilion now, and most of the things in the court have nothing to do with him.

"Yes, yes, I will go to court tomorrow!"

What else could Yang Zhengshan say? Emperor Yanping had already named him, so he couldn't just stay at home all the time.

Afterwards, he chatted with Chen Zhongshu for a while before sending Chen Zhongshu away.

Before leaving, Yang Zhengshan specially packed ten more jars of Baicao Wine for Chen Zhongshu.

This old eunuch is extremely powerful and must not be offended.

After sending Chen Zhongshu away, Yang Zhengshan opened the three jade boxes that Emperor Yanping had exchanged for wine.

Well, Emperor Yanping was still very honest and did not use the precious medicine ginseng to fool him.

One precious medicine in exchange for five jars of herbal wine, this is a clearly marked price.

However, precious medicines also come in different grades, with ginseng being the cheapest and most common. As a result, he has collected a lot of precious medicines and ginseng recently, making ginseng his least favorite ingredient now.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the three precious medicinal plants and finally his eyes fell on a golden flower.

"Golden Jade Camellia?" Yang Zhengshan was extremely surprised.

Golden Jade Camellia is a relatively rare precious medicine, which has the effect of nourishing the meridians. It is mainly used by half-step innate warriors to open up the meridians during the breakthrough process.

Yang Zhengshan naturally had no use for the Golden Jade Camellia, but Xue Qiaoer's prescription required it.

After putting away the golden jade camellia, Yang Zhengshan silently calculated in his mind and found that he could collect nine kinds of precious medicines that Xue Qiaoer needed.

There are thirteen kinds in total, and he was able to collect nine of them, thanks to the precious medicines he exchanged for the Hundred Herbs Brew during this period.

After thinking about it, Yang Zhengshan simply took out all nine kinds of precious medicines and had them moved to the living room, and then invited Xue Qiaoer, Xue Po Po and Xue Zhongjin.

"These are nine kinds of precious medicines. Take a look first!"

Yang Zhengshan pointed to the precious medicines packed in different boxes nearby and said.

Xue Qiaoer looked at these precious medicines in amazement, "So many!"

"Well, these are all the precious medicines you need, but we are still missing four kinds!" Yang Zhengshan said.

Granny Xue went forward and opened the boxes one by one, carefully examining the precious medicines inside.

"Well, they are all high-quality precious medicines, but there are still four missing. What should I do?"

Yang Zhengshan shook his head slightly. "The remaining four types cannot be collected in a short time. I will continue to use the Hundred Herb Brew to exchange for precious medicines, and I will change these four precious medicines into one for every ten jars of Hundred Herb Brew. But when I can get them depends on my luck!"

Xue Qiaoer looked at Granny Xue, who nodded slightly. Xue Qiaoer then said, "Then I'll leave this matter to the Marquis!"

"If you are worried, you can continue to live in the Marquis' Mansion." Yang Zhengshan said with a smile.

Xue Qiaoer shook her head and said, "No, we are planning to say goodbye to the Marquis anyway!"

"Oh! Are you going back?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"No, we are going to Jinlong Dynasty to look for the Flame Red Lotus!" Xue Qiaoer said. Of the thirteen kinds of precious medicines, the other twelve can be found in Darong, but the Flame Red Lotus can only be found in Jinlong Dynasty.

They had no doubt that Yang Zhengshan could help them collect the other twelve precious medicines, but they could not be sure that Yang Zhengshan could find the Flame Red Lotus.

If Yang Zhengshan can't be found, can they just keep waiting here?
So after discussion, they decided to go to the Jinlong Dynasty to find the Flame Red Lotus themselves.

Yang Zhengshan thought about it and nodded slightly, "That's good, maybe when you come back, the remaining three precious medicines will be complete!"

Xue Qiaoer nodded, then looked at Xue Zhongjin. Xue Zhongjin immediately understood and left the hall. A moment later he came back with three white jade boxes.

"These are three Ice Heart Fruits! Please accept them, My Lord!" Xue Qiaoer said.

Yang Zhengshan accepted the Bing Xin Fruit with a smile.

The third spiritual plant is obtained!
Hehe, the Star Yuan Fruit planted last month has sprouted, and now he has got the Bing Xin Fruit. Yang Zhengshan is in a good mood.

After Xue Qiaoer and the other two left, Yang Zhengshan couldn't wait to enter the Lingquan space and planted two Bingxin fruits.

Why are there two trees?
One is too few, three are too many, two are enough, and with the remaining Ice Heart Fruit he can try to refine the Jade Bone Ice Heart Pill.

After planting the Bingxin Fruit, Yang Zhengshan called Yang Mingcheng again.

"father!"

In the study, Yang Zhengshan waved his hand and motioned him to sit down.

"How many shops do we have in Kyoto?"

Yang Mingcheng was stunned, not understanding why Yang Zhengshan suddenly asked about this.

"There are thirteen rooms in total, eleven of which are rented to the Luo family, and the remaining two are used to open a grain shop!" Yang Mingcheng said.

Yang Zhengshan naturally wouldn't care how many shops he had at home, and he didn't need to worry about this matter.

"Let someone set aside a shop to sell Baicao wine."

"Ah!" Yang Mingcheng looked at Yang Zhengshan in astonishment, "Dad wants to sell Baicao Wine?"

"Yeah!" Yang Zhengshan nodded.

"How much does that jar of Hundred Herbs Wine cost?" Yang Mingcheng scratched his head and asked.

Yang Zhengshan rolled his eyes at him, "Silver? You're crazy! Change it to precious medicine."

"It's really unreasonable to exchange one precious medicine for five jars of Hundred Herb Brew. Some shameless guys have been using precious medicine ginseng to fool me recently. Humph, if it weren't for the fact that we are all powerful people, I would have wanted to slap them a long time ago!"

What he lacked the least was the precious medicinal ginseng, and he ended up exchanging so much of it, so he decided to change the way of exchange.

According to the preciousness and market price of the precious medicine, the price of the precious medicine is determined by using Baicao Brew.

The most common precious medicine, ginseng, is priced at three jars of five-jin bottle of Baicao Wine.

The more common one is the Five Jars of Hundred Herbs Brew.

The rarer ones are priced at six jars, seven jars, and so on.

The precious medicine that Yang Zhengshan needs can be priced at more than ten jars.

In this way, Yang Zhengshan would not suffer any loss and could also exchange it for some precious medicines he needed.

"It doesn't have to be a too big store, nor in a too busy place, but it would be best if it's in West City. Is there any?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"Yes, our grain shop will do!" Yang Mingcheng said.

The properties in the West City District of Kyoto are the most expensive. Most of the properties purchased by the Yang family are in the East City and South City, and there is only a small shop in the West City.

There was no other way. The good shops in Kyoto had long been occupied by the rich and powerful, so the Yang family couldn't buy a few more, especially the shops in West City, which were even harder to buy.

"Then let's make some changes to the grain shop!" Yang Zhengshan said nonchalantly.

The wine he sells is not ordinary wine, and the business he does is not ordinary business. There is no need to set up a big store, and there is no need to do anything fancy.

It is enough to have a shop and a sign.

The reason for opening such a shop is that it is not appropriate to sell alcohol at home.

If there were few people buying wine, it would be fine, but recently more and more people are buying wine, so Yang Zhengshan decided to open a wine shop.

"You keep an eye on this matter. If anyone comes to our house to exchange wine again, ask them to buy it from the shop!" Yang Zhengshan ordered.

"it is good!"

Yang Mingcheng responded and went to do his work.

Just as Yang Zhengshan was about to study the recipe for the Jade Bone Ice Heart Pill, Yang Wanqing came over.

"Grandpa~~"

Today, Yang Wanqing was wearing a green dress with narrow sleeves and her hair was simply tied into two buns. She looked pretty and a bit heroic.

"Well, why are you here?"

Yang Zhengshan asked.

Yang Wanqing came to Yang Zhengshan with a smile and said in a flattering manner: "Grandpa, your granddaughter has something to ask you!"

Yang Zhengshan looked at the girl. This girl was not someone who would keep quiet. This girl was the biggest headache for Yang Mingcheng and his wife.

"What's the matter?"

"My granddaughter wants to follow Sister Qiaoer to the Jinlong Dynasty!" Yang Wanqing said in a low voice.

Yang Zhengshan frowned, "Did Xue Qiaoer tell you that?"

"Well, Sister Qiaoer said that they will leave Kyoto and go south to the Jinlong Dynasty tomorrow!" Yang Wanqing said.

Yang Zhengshan shook his head and refused decisively: "No!"

What a joke! Yang Wanqing is only fifteen years old this year. It would be strange for Yang Zhengshan to feel at ease letting her go on a long journey.

"But my granddaughter wants to go!" Yang Wanqing looked at Yang Zhengshan with a longing look on her face.

Her chubby little face coupled with her pitiful look almost made Yang Zhengshan unable to resist pinching her.

This girl has found Yang Zhengshan's weakness. In the entire Yang family, she is the only one who is best at acting like a spoiled child with Yang Zhengshan.

"No room for negotiation!" Yang Zhengshan still shook his head firmly, "Girl, this matter is not that simple."

"You want to go out and play, that's fine, you can go anywhere around Kyoto. You want to travel, that's fine too, Grandpa can arrange for someone to protect you while you go out and play! But you want to go to the Jinlong Dynasty, that's absolutely not allowed."

"Why?" Yang Wanqing pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Because you are too young and too weak!" Yang Zhengshan looked at her. "The Jinlong Dynasty is a dangerous place. There are many desperate criminals there. They do not follow morality at all."

This is not Yang Zhengshan threatening Yang Wanqing, but the fact.

The Jinlong Dynasty is located in the southwest of Dayong and borders Dayong’s southern border town. Among the many dynasties in the south of Dayong, the Jinlong Dynasty is definitely the most chaotic one.

What is the Jinlong Dynasty? Let’s put it this way, many wanted criminals and serious criminals in Dayong fled to the Jinlong Dynasty.

If Yang Wanqing wanted to go somewhere else, Yang Zhengshan might agree, but as for going to the Jinlong Dynasty, Yang Zhengshan would not be at ease even if Yu Qingyi went, let alone Yang Wanqing.
