Chapter 57 All on Conscience
Medical Skills +2
Reading +3
Chen Yushu finished reading the medical book today and was absorbing the gains in his mind.
Because he was quite busy, he only read a medical book on health care today. It was from a series of advice books by old doctors. This kind of book was not considered an orthodox medical book, but because it had no threshold to entry, it was more popular.
Of course, the side room of the drugstore cannot contain only medical books. Related books are also included.
It introduces a lot of knowledge about health and fitness and the pharmacology of medicines. In addition, it even comes with a blood-nourishing recipe called Qixue Tang.
There are actually many medical books like this that come with small recipes.
For example, he had previously read a medical book on bone setting, which contained a recipe for red oil that was very effective in repairing injuries to muscles and bones.
"Qi and blood soup?
Although it is certainly far inferior to Yangyuan Decoction, it should also be able to increase some qi and blood.
The key is that the herbs are cheap.”
Chen Yushu looked at the recipe carefully.
The medical books he had read in the past few days were not in vain. Based on pharmacological verification, he knew that this formula did have a certain effect on increasing qi and blood.
The key point is that all fifteen kinds of medicinal herbs only cost about thirty cents per set.
If you grab twenty or thirty pairs, you can only get one or two taels of silver at most.
He immediately decided to add some according to the quantity.
…
Being possessed by evil spirits is a very troublesome matter for many professionals.
In order to prevent the business of the pharmacy from being affected, a group of injured people were all arranged to rest on the second floor of the pharmacy.
Therefore, Chen Yushu was not clear about the situation above.
When it was almost time, Chen Yushu asked Manager Zhou for permission and got twenty packets of herbs for Qi and Blood Soup, and of course, he also paid some silver.
But the price is still cheaper. Five hundred coins is equivalent to a 30% discount.
“Fortunately, I’ve moved out.
Otherwise, I really wouldn’t dare fall asleep in the pharmacy.”
After walking out of the pharmacy, he couldn't help but look back at the second floor, feeling relieved.
He already knew that most of these wounded would have to stay here overnight.
It would be fine if he didn't know this, but once he knew, how could he dare to be neighbors with these things?
Wouldn't it be terrible if they were in a bad mood and wandered around and ran into us?
Thinking of this, he quickened his pace.
"Brother, Brother Chen, wait for me."
Not long after he walked into an alley, he heard shouting from behind.
He quickly turned around and saw Shi Hao rushing over.
"Brother, do you still have that talisman?"
Shi Hao took a deep breath and then said excitedly, "Your talisman is truly magical.
Once it was applied, the evil spirit would start to smoke and quickly disappear.
Now that group of people are all looking for me to ask for the talisman."
"oh?"
Chen Yushu frowned.
“Brother, this is it.
I was planning to listen to you and not get involved in that matter.
But some people said that I was young and had no skills, but I still wanted to join in the fun. Brother Li, who recommended me here, happened to be there, and I couldn’t let him lose face.
It just so happened that everyone else was helping the injured people to get rid of their evil spirits.
The methods used are varied, and most of them involve tools that become useless after a short time.
It is said that his spiritual power is almost exhausted and needs time to recover.
Then, I took out a talisman and helped someone get rid of evil spirits.
At that time, I was not sure whether this talisman was useful or not.
Who knew that as soon as the talisman was stuck on the person, it would start to smoke, and the evil spirit on the person was quickly dispelled. Even the complexion on his face was improving at a speed visible to the naked eye.
All of a sudden, that group of people became curious about the talisman in my hand and were willing to pay money to buy it.
If I hadn’t said I didn’t have much with me and had to bring it tomorrow, they wouldn’t have let me go.”
Seeing this, Shi Hao quickly began to explain.
"How many do you have left? How much do they charge?"
Chen Yushu raised his eyebrows, revealing a hint of surprise.
I do know that those utensils should be "old utensils". Because they have spirituality, they have a certain inhibitory effect on evil spirits and ghosts.
For example, Uncle Zhong used an old bell to help him exorcise the ghost.
However, although this kind of old vessel can retain some "spirituality", most of it is not long-lasting. Once it is consumed, it is necessary to burn incense and pray to "infuse it with spirit" again.
It is far inferior to the real magic weapon.
"Ten taels of silver per piece.
I just used two of them, and each of them took out ten taels of silver and gave it to me on the spot.
But I saw an old man named Liu inside who seemed to be quite knowledgeable. He said that this talisman was not usually so expensive. I estimated that eight taels was about right, so I took back two taels of silver.
I was afraid you might have run out of them, so I didn't dare use them all up. I still have one left."
Shi Haolian lowered his voice and spoke.
Chen Yushu nodded. He had just given him three talismans and said, "It's not that expensive.
However, the situation has changed, and you are quite capable of selling it for eight taels of silver."
He still remembered the price tag of the house-warding talisman he had seen at Lao Fu's incense shop.
One tael of silver!
Even though it's a fake, it's normal that the price is cheap.
But a normal house-guarding talisman that can function normally would cost three or five taels of silver at most.
Of course, each line has its own price.
Those who know the business can buy it for one or two taels. For those who don’t, even if you bid ten or twenty taels, if people like it or really need it urgently, they will still have to buy it.
This is how the world is. Some business deals are done based entirely on conscience.
“As for the talismans, come to me tomorrow and get them. I’ll try to get as many as possible.
If you can still sell it at 8 taels per piece, I'll give it to you at 5 taels per piece. If you can't sell it, I'll give you a refund."
After thinking about it, Chen Yushu also became a little excited.
A talisman costs five taels of silver. As long as he can sell ten of them, he can make a net profit of fifty taels of silver.
Although there will inevitably be risks during this period, opportunities and risks are relative.
He wanted to make money, but in the short term, there was really no other way except selling talismans.
"OK.
Thank you, brother."
Shi Hao also became excited when he heard this.
All his confidence came from Chen Yushu. According to the other party's proposal, both parties could make money, so he naturally had no reason to disagree.
"good.
I have another talisman here that should be able to protect you from those creatures.
As long as you don't enter your dreams, there will be no cause and effect between you and them, and they will have no reason to bother you.
Of course, it doesn’t matter even if you fall asleep. You should be fine on the first day.
We’ll make plans for what happens next.”
As Chen Yushu spoke, he handed over the last talisman on his body.
"That silver..."
Shi Hao reached out and took it.
Chen Yushu waved his hand and said, "If you didn't give me the thirty taels of silver just now, I won't return it. The extra ten taels of silver will be considered as a deposit for tomorrow."
After saying that, he didn't stay any longer and went straight home.
