Chapter 34
Lin Qinghen has not shut down the production of the hemostatic powder in the background, mainly because he ordered more than a thousand bottles for himself before the Lin family destroyed the two acres of land.
At that time, he was afraid that if the planting in another place was not continued all of a sudden, the production table would be idle, which would be a loss, so he deliberately made more and operated at saturation. Facts have proved that he did not make such a choice.
A little over a day after his proficiency level was online, his production speed dropped to more than 14 minutes per bottle, and there were about 1,100 bottles that the system had not taken out.
Lin Qinghen had calculated it. Except for the time when he first opened the proficiency attribute and counted one thousand bottles in a basket, he counted them bottle by bottle afterwards.
The ratio of 0.05% is multiplied by the current time. As the time becomes shorter, the base number will become smaller and smaller, and the subsequent reduction in time will also decrease accordingly.
In other words, it becomes more difficult as time goes by. When it really gets down to the point where one bottle can be finished in a few seconds, it will of course take a long time. The current situation is urgent, and Lin Qinghen is alone. He is considering whether he can handle it.
Yin Hengxie was still discussing countermeasures with Yin Miao and forgot about the two of them for a moment.
Lin Qinghen had heard everything he needed to hear, and he understood everything clearly. He had made up his mind, so he didn't stay any longer and left with Yin Jiuxiao. The other two hadn't reacted yet.
Afterwards, Lin Qinghen found the place where Yin Jiuxiao lived according to his instructions, and settled down after a long journey.
He would probably live in this place permanently in the future, so he had to get familiar with it.
The yard is quite big, but it is not very popular and seems empty. Many things are very old.
Yin Hengxie was very busy and often could not take care of himself, and often could not take care of him. Yin Jiuxiao was blind, and when he was young, he was often bullied by evil servants.
The family situation was complicated to begin with, with so many people eyeing the position of young master, wishing he would die sooner. He had escaped death several times, but that was all a thing of the past for Yin Jiuxiao.
Now, there is only one servant who sweeps the yard, and two guards who are relatively loyal to the master but have a mediocre attitude towards Yin Jiuxiao.
The one who usually takes care of him is an old woman who has watched him grow up and still has some love for him. She used to be able to lead the blind Yin Jiuxiao around, but her health has been failing in the past few years and she should have had a good rest long ago.
Now, fortunately, Lin Qinghen can take good care of him without relying on others.
However, there is also an advantage to the other people in the yard not being fully committed. If Lin Qinghen wants to do something, he doesn't have to worry about them finding out.
As for Yin Jiuxiao, he couldn't see it anyway.
What a great place.
Yin Jiuxiao was helped to sit down by him. His eyes never left Lin Qinghen. He always felt that this person seemed to be thinking about something.
What we lack now is alchemists.
He had previously suspected that Lin Qinghen did not have any spiritual essence, but he was really surprised and thought it was very likely that he could really refine medicine.
But the current situation of the Yin family cannot be solved by an alchemist alone, but Lin Qinghen's expression was relaxed, as if he had already found a solution.
He thought that if he stayed here alone, Lin Qinghen might not be able to find an excuse to go out and do things.
So Yin Jiuxiao made a prompt decision, leaned softly on the edge of the bed, and said to him: "Qinghen, I just came back and feel sleepy. I want to sleep for a while, will you join me?"
Lin Qinghen felt that he was really considerate!
He was just thinking of finding an excuse to go out, but now that Yin Jiuxiao said that, he didn't even have to think of an excuse.
"Go to sleep." He let the other person lie down and covered him with a blanket very carefully. "I'm not sleepy. Go pack up your things."
Yin Jiuxiao looked really sleepy. After he lay down for a while, his breathing calmed down.
Seeing that he was asleep, Lin Qinghen began to contact Yu Yinyin using the bee crystal butterfly in his clothes.
Of course Yin Jiuxiao didn't sleep. He was listening to Lin Qinghen talking.
"Master, please come and pick me up. I've already arrived at the Yin family." Lin Qinghen didn't waste any more words here. "I know something about the shop. Let's talk about it when we meet."
The Yin family's defense is far superior to that of the Lin family, so Yu Yinyin can come and go freely here.
With her level of spiritual power, it is not difficult for her to take Lin Qinghen away.
After they left, Yin Jiuxiao immediately sat up from the bed.
In the past few days, he has made some progress in the integration of internal power. Now when he summons the shadow, the movement is much smaller than before.
Even a Heavenly Master might not be able to spot it. Besides, Yu Yinyin is not a combat type, so her vigilance is not that high.
So he called Shadow and followed the people from a distance without being discovered, watching them go north and enter a medicine shop in the market.
Diemeng Pharmacy.
Yin Jiuxiao deliberately stopped there for a while, staring at the name for a long time, as if he had thought of something, and then followed.
This pharmacy is not very big. The first floor is the storefront and the second floor is the reception room.
The plantation under the pharmacy was in another place on the edge of the city. Lin Qinghen was brought in by Yu Yinyin. He didn't see anyone else. He was first taken to a hidden space behind the reception room, and then he vaguely heard voices outside.
"Don't show up yet," Yu Yinyin motioned for him to sit down. "You were on the boat before and couldn't help much, so I didn't look for you. Now I have to explain this situation to you first."
Lin Qinghen already knew most of it.
His master's business had indeed not been doing well over the past twenty years. Now, during the conversation, Yu Yinyin pointed at people one by one and introduced them to him, which made it much more intuitive.
The head of Diemeng Pharmacy is her old servant. His spiritual power is average, but he is loyal. Even after such a long time, when Yu Yinyin activated the token, he was still able to reply immediately.
Besides him, there were a few other guards in the pharmacy. Their spiritual powers were not that high, they were all around the Profound Level. They were all people who still remembered their old friendship and did not run away. They were middle-aged and could only barely protect the pharmacy.
The old shopkeeper had a nine-year-old girl by his side. She was a poor child he picked up and raised as his granddaughter.
Who knew that what was lit up was exactly the beast-taming essence of the Bee Crystal Butterfly, which was very rare, just like Yu Yinyin. I had thought that if Yu Yinyin didn't come back, the shop would be handed over to this little girl.
The little girl had great talent, and with her help, the pharmacy was able to run smoothly over the past few years.
However, the disadvantages of Diemeng are also obvious. They don't have loyal alchemists staying. In the past few years, they worked with a dozen alchemists in the form of employment, so they didn't turn from a medicine store to a material shop, but now it's not possible.
Lin Qinghen also heard the reason at the Yin family.
Elder Xu of the Yin family joined forces with the city's Alchemist Association to launch a sudden attack. The Fuxin Miaofa branch did not enter Beizhou, but the habit of alchemists sticking together would not change no matter where they went, and there was an Alchemist Association in every city.
To put it bluntly, all their actions are profitable. The top leaders of the association chose Xu Yaoyang to cooperate with them in order to force the emperor to abdicate. The lower-level alchemists dared to join forces with the pharmacies and move together. In addition to being restricted by the group, the more important thing is that they raised the price at this critical juncture.
There were few conscientious pharmacies in the city, and it was businessmen's instinct to pursue profit. The alchemist that Yin Hengxie had agreed to meet had betrayed him, and Xu Yaoyang had deliberately destroyed part of his originally prepared stock. Suddenly, there were not enough medicines to fight the rat plague.
Die Meng was one of the few people who stood on Yin Hengxie's side. According to Yu Yinyin, it was because the other party had lent a hand to help before, and it was indeed not a conscience-based thing to do to raise the price now.
But Diemeng only offered the medicine at the original price for a few days, and the alchemists who had been cooperating with her began to break their contracts one by one.
The talent of the alchemist is unique and irreplaceable. It is difficult to get along with him on a normal day. Now that he has broken the contract and left, the pharmacy can only be angry but there is nothing they can do. The higher-ups have all acquiesced and no one will come to uphold justice.
When Lin Qinghen arrived, the owner of Diemeng Pharmacy was negotiating with the last two alchemists who had not left.
These two people don't really have a conscience, but they are taking this opportunity to increase their future commission.
Lin Qinghen heard them arguing. The old shopkeeper was very old and his hands were shaking with anger. He had already been helped aside.
"Don't go too far!" The old shopkeeper glared, "You've raised the commission to 80 percent? How can there be such a business? If it weren't for our pharmacy's help when you were in trouble, you wouldn't be here today. You're repaying kindness with enmity!"
But the two alchemists were very calm and not panicked at all.
"Die Meng is just a small shop. Without us, what kind of medicine shop would it be?" One of them replied with a shrill voice, "Boss, I advise you to agree to it. At least you can make some money. Otherwise, in a few days, your medicine shop will be gone."
This happened only in the past two days. Even if Yu Yinyin came back, she couldn't be saved for the time being.
She frowned as she spoke to Lin Qinghen.
In a pharmacy, the alchemist is its soul. No matter how powerful Yu Yinyin is, she is not an alchemist.
If you want to give up and not be a pharmacist, it is not a good choice to turn the pharmacy into a material shop. No matter how good the materials are, they have to be sold to the pharmacy to the pharmacist, but they are exploited in a different way.
Yu Yinyin had a hard time explaining what she had said to Lin Qinghen before. She really had not expected that her business had become so messed up.
In the heyday of the past, alchemists would fight to cooperate with him. However, these two were just five-star yellow-rank alchemists, yet they dared to look at Die Meng in the face.
Although she is a six-star Heavenly Rank, she has just returned to the human world and is not a combat type. Bee Crystal Butterfly has some attack power under the control of the Heavenly Rank, but it is at most on par with a one-star Heavenly Rank combat type.
The situation in Beizhou is complicated, the Yin family is in serious internal strife, and the Alchemist Association here is not an easy group to deal with. It would not be the right choice for her to rashly reveal her strength, nor would it bring any positive changes to the current situation. She has a lot of things to worry about.
She couldn't explain the current situation to Lin Qinghen clearly and kept sighing.
"What I mean is that these two alchemists must not be kept. Old Xie still holds on to a little hope, which is why the current negotiations have taken place." Yu Yinyin said, "If I had to choose, the worst that could happen is that I would close the shop and go to another more peaceful city, recruit a few alchemists and start over slowly. We have the best materials, and I still have some money.
The City of Tears is really a hopeless quagmire, the temple is small but the demons are strong, the pond is shallow but there are many turtles, Qinghen, are you sure you want to stay here?"
Old Xie is the current owner of Diemeng Pharmacy.
"It's just a small matter. I just got here. Why did Master leave?" Lin Qinghen glanced at her. He was not panicked at all. He sorted out the current situation and finally confirmed a question. "When you first came to Beizhou to explore, I gave you round wheat seeds to take away. I thought that if you can plant it, you should plant it in advance and don't waste time. Have you planted it?"
Yu Yinyin nodded: "Of course."
Except for her poor fighting skills, she is first-rate in other aspects.
In order to prevent others from stealing seeds, Diemeng had already set up a new formation in her small plantation. With her current strength, no one in the City of Tears can break the formation.
The basic spiritual plant of the Yuyinyin species in its heyday is quite simple. Diemeng's plantation is not big, only more than 20 acres, and she doesn't even need farmers.
She had taken back all the bees, crystals and butterflies that had been left at the Lin family, and had bred quite a few new ones, so she could accomplish this with just these.
But having the materials alone is not enough without a pharmacist.
Lin Qinghen smiled when he heard this, as if he had a clue in his mind.
"Then things will be easy."
The noise outside was the most intense at this time. The two alchemists who broke the contract were about to take advantage of the situation when they suddenly felt something hitting them.
There were two cups, one in front, one behind, and one on the left and one on the right, hitting them right on the forehead.
The water in the cup scalded his face and the fragments scratched his forehead. Alchemists generally have poor physical fitness and lack fast reaction speed, so he couldn't dodge at all.
"who?!"
"I," Lin Qinghen slowly came out from the dark room behind the reception room, "Now, you can go away."
