Generally speaking, the processed yam has a mild nature and a sweet taste. It returns to the spleen, stomach, and kidney meridian, and has the functions of nourishing the spleen and stomach, promoting body fluid and lungs, and nourishing the kidney and astringing essence.
Among all the medicinal materials, this one consumes the most. As long as he is not sitting in court, all his time is used to prepare the medicinal materials. If Sister Bai can send yam tablets, it will save him a lot of trouble.
Baiyunxi listened and thought about it in his mind. Yams contain a lot of water, so they consume a lot of money when processed.
One pound of fresh yam can be used to prepare two to three taels of medicinal materials. One pound of yam tablets requires five pounds of fresh yam. In addition, it takes time to dig and dry manually. The price of 500 to 100 yuan is still acceptable.
Yams are wild, so apart from taking time and effort, the raw materials cost no money, and it also wastes some firewood.
"Okay, when the busy farming season is over, I'll make some and bring them to you for a look."
It's always good to have more income. Anyway, her family only had one acre of sweet potatoes left, which was confiscated, and the rest was nothing, so she had to live off the mountain.
"Then it's settled."
Bai Yunxi said goodbye to Doctor Cheng and asked Li to carry the eggs. The two walked back to the street and looked at the shops on both sides of the street. Bai Yunxi was thinking about what gift to give Huzi in return.
"Mom, what are you looking at?"
Li was carrying the basket, didn't she say she was going to buy cotton? Those things are at the west end of the town.
"I was thinking, we received someone's basket of eggs, what kind of gift would be appropriate in return?" They are not from a wealthy family, so it would be inappropriate to receive too much.
Mrs. Li looked at the basket in her hand, curious, "Mom, what's going on? Tell me about it?"
As soon as she arrived in town, she received a basket of greeting gifts, which really surprised her.
"It's nothing. It's just that when I came to sell Qiuli ointment yesterday, I happened to meet a child with a stuck trachea..."
As Baiyunxi walked, he recounted what happened yesterday to Mr. Li.
"For Mom, it's just a simple effort. Since you've accepted the gift, it's polite to give it back appropriately."
After Mrs. Li was shocked, she blinked her eyes and said, "Mom, you are so awesome. Why don't you buy some millet for that child as a gift in return? Use that to make porridge, which is good for digestion and nourishment. It is good for children."
In Li's mind, the best things cannot be separated from food.
Bai Yunxi listened to Li's suggestion and looked at her with a smile. Yes, why did she forget that there was millet in the locker?
"Ms. Li, pick the eggs into the basket and free up the basket."
"Hey~"
When Mrs. Li picked the eggs into the basket, Bai Yunxi told her directly, "You wait here, I will go visit myself and I will be back soon. It is not appropriate for you to carry the basket on your back."
"Okay, mother, go and come back quickly."
Mrs. Li nodded, her mother was right, if they accepted all the eggs and millet, wouldn't they lose money?
Bai Yunxi looked at her and curled her lips. She was such an obedient child.
Carrying the basket, she walked for a while and turned into Yangshu Alley. When there was no one around, she put five kilograms of millet in a small cloth bag and put it in the basket, then continued walking in with the basket on her arm.
It wasn't until I met the old lady sitting at the door that I asked her about the location of Huzi's house.
The old lady looked up and down Baiyun River, pointed to the front,
"The second house you go forward is, let me tell you, the sister-in-law is the one who splashed it. She has been making trouble these past two days. It has been very noisy every day. You should be careful, or she will make a fool of you."
"Thank you, old lady, I'll go take a look." Bai Yunxi twitched the corner of his mouth. Sure enough, the old man was well-informed.
