Chapter 17 Fairy Water

At Haishi, most of the people in Lin's house were fast asleep.

Bai Song gave his sister an explanation and slipped out of the hole in the backyard wall.

Earlier, I had asked my sister to go out to send a message and asked the Turks to wait at Sangsang's house.

It has been ten days since I dreamed of returning to the Tang Dynasty. Thinking about the protagonists of those time-travel novels, I don’t know how much money they made and how many women they pushed.

But he has made no achievements now, and there is still no progress in living in the Lin Mansion.

Bai Song was a little anxious.

It was supposed to be a three-quarter-of-an-hour journey, but Bai Song only took half an hour to reach Sang Sang's house.

Almost all the lights in the townhouses in the western suburbs were turned off, except for the faint firelight in Sangsang's house.

In the yard, piles of artemisia annua exude a unique smell that can be clearly smelled from a distance.

Three Turks were guarding the courtyard, walking back and forth, looking a little impatient.

Sangsang's family of three were in the back room, feeling very uneasy.

After all, in the hearts of the Han people, the Turks are all barbarians, fierce and rude, and murderous people without batting an eyelid.

These three Turks were quite well-behaved. They probably had a lot of dealings with the Han people, and they knew to wait in the yard and not to enter other people's houses casually.

Bai Song arrived, panting from exhaustion, holding on to the fence at the entrance of the courtyard, apologizing again and again: "I'm sorry, I'm late."

"Brother Bai!" Sang Sang leaned against the door frame and waited drowsily. When she saw Bai Song, her spirits were lifted.

"Time is pressing, let's get down to business first."

Bai Song calmed down and fixed his gaze on the piles of mugwort in the yard.

The female Turk came forward to communicate with Bai Song and asked him if these were what he needed.

Bai Song counted them and kept nodding: "How many are there in total?"

"Forty pounds, just a little more."

The Bai Song Dynasty was not afraid that the Turks would use some fake medicinal materials to fool them, but they were afraid that they would admit their mistake and find some useless medicinal materials.

After confirming that these were what he needed, Bai Song was very free and easy and took out the broken silver he had prepared and gave it to the Turks.

The Turks looked happy after taking the silver. After thanking him, they told Bai Song that they would set up stalls to sell goods in the western suburbs of Mang County every once in a while. If you need it again in the future, you can come to them at any time.

After seeing off the Turks, Bai Song entered the house and had many things to arrange.

How to mix Artemisia annua soup, how to fry it, how to promote it, and what price to sell it at...

Bai Song couldn't do everything himself, he could only teach the Sangsang family.

It has been five days since my last visit.

The Sang Sang family was convinced of Bai Song from the bottom of their hearts.

Uncle Qu's trauma has improved a lot and he can already walk.

After taking Huang's Qinghao Decoction, he recovered in just one day.

This incident has caused a small sensation among the surrounding neighbors.

Many people were making insinuations and wanted to know the recipe, but Mr. Huang almost let it slip.

However, Sangsang was smart and knew that the prescription was the key to Brother Bai's fortune. He had already informed his parents in advance and must not reveal even a word of it.

Sang Sang was at the table, using the faint firelight, holding a forked brush and carefully recording everything Brother Bai had told her on the papyrus paper.

Bai Song said while looking at Xiao Nizi.

Seeing that Sangsang was no longer depressed about what happened a few days ago, I felt a little more relaxed.

There is still some leftover medicine for Huang's treatment last time, enough to prepare more than a dozen doses of Qinghao decoction.

Bai Song also took out all his family assets, and the first shot in time travel must be fired.

Bai Song was very cautious. After confirming that Sangsang had understood the production method, he had other ideas in mind.

"Qinghao Decoction...the name is so straightforward that others will know the key to the prescription as soon as they hear it...it's called Immortal Water! Yes! It's called Immortal Water."

"Fairy water..." Sangsang paused for a moment, his face slightly embarrassed.

The uncle and aunt also exchanged glances, feeling that the name was a bit... retarded.

Bai Song was very satisfied: "The fairy water is simple and crude, full of mystery."

Sangsang hesitated to write it down, and then asked: "Brother Bai, how much does this fairy water cost in copper coins?"

"Make all the medicines together. Make a soup at home and put it in a vessel. Don't reveal the prescription. A bowl of twenty copper coins. Never bargain."

"Twenty strings!"

The Sangsang family's souls were all lifted, and they thought to themselves that this... this is simply...

Even a lion can't open its mouth so wide!

Twenty strings!

Ordinary people can save a little and get through three years!

"Uncle and aunt, don't be too surprised. My price is already very cheap! Think about it, some bastard's blood costs a hundred guan, but our fairy water is not more powerful and effective than theirs? This is a life-saving medicine.

, let alone twenty guan, there are people who buy even two hundred guan."

Uncle Qu was convinced after hearing this. If this were not the case, he would not borrow money to gamble. In order to save the lives of their loved ones, many people are willing to pay anything.

But Sang Sang was born with a kind heart, and thinking about the sick people he saw every day, he looked a little lonely.

"In this case, Uncle Yang and Aunt Six will not be able to afford Brother Bai's medicine."

Bai Song smiled: "Sang Sang, don't worry, I have already thought of these situations."

Bai Song's voice paused for a moment: "What should the poor people do if they get sick but can't afford medicine? You can promote it for us. For every person who helps us promote it and sells a bowl of fairy water for us, we will give you a copper coin as a rebate. If you sell a total of five

If you buy a bowl of fairy water, you can receive a bowl of fairy water for free. In this way, poor people not only do not need to spend money to buy it, but they can also make money by themselves.

Although there are many poor people in the western suburbs, there are still many rich people in the county, the surrounding small villages and towns, and the prefectures and counties further away. Twenty copper coins are out of reach for poor people, but it is for wealthy people.

It’s a drop in the bucket. What we do is to make money from the rich and provide free medical treatment to the poor.”

The three members of the Qu family have never seen such methods before.

The entire lobby has never seen anything.

Mrs. Huang asked in a low voice: "My dear nephew, is this okay?"

Bai Song was full of confidence: "Don't worry, it will be popular in the whole city in two days. Auntie only needs to prepare a large box. She is afraid that there will be too many copper coins and there will be no place to put it at home."

Having said this, Bai Song came up with another idea.

During the Zhenguan period, there seemed to be no money banks in the Tang Dynasty.

In the Tang Dynasty, copper coins were mainly traded, and wealthy landowners relied on hiding money to protect their wealth. This was both unsafe and troublesome.

If the concept of a bank could be brought hundreds of years in advance to the present, it would be a big business that would make the country rich.

After thinking about it, Bai Song shook his head. This matter is too far away, so he should think about the present first.

The things that need to be explained have been explained, and the rest can only rely on the Sangsang family.

It's already midnight, and I don't know when the night watchers from the Lin Mansion will come out. If I were to go out secretly and be discovered, I'd be in a lot of trouble.

Bai Song did not dare to stay longer and hurriedly said goodbye and returned.

Although Mang County is a small border town, its folk customs are relatively simple and the city gates are not closed in the middle of the night unless there is a military emergency.

Under the starlight, instead of the flying snow of a few days ago, there were more stars all over the sky to guide the way.

After staying for a long time, the Bai Song Dynasty gradually forgot about the city with many high-rise buildings, and seemed to have gradually adapted to the primitiveness and simplicity of ancient times.

It's just that the nights in ancient times were so quiet that no one could see them. The streets in the city stretched as far as the eye could see, but not a single person could be seen. Only the meowing of cats that came from nowhere appeared and disappeared, making people especially aware of it.

There was something wrong with the atmosphere. Bai Song felt like a pair of eyes were staring at him, and he got goosebumps inexplicably.

Turn around suddenly!

A shadow suddenly flashed across the wall of an unknown house behind me. It was so dark that it was impossible to see its shape.

Bai Song was startled and almost ran away. Then a black cat walked out leisurely in the corner, glanced at Bai Song with its flashing yellow eyes, barked again, and disappeared in a flash.

.

Bai Song took a deep breath and patted his chest: "Good boy, I'm so scared that I'm covered in sweat!"

I thought it was a false alarm, but when I turned around, I suddenly felt a chill on my neck!

It's a sword!
