"Hey, Xiaobai."
Xiao Chen called Bai Ye.
"Brother Chen, what's the matter?"
Bai Ye answered the phone and asked.
"There's something I need your help with."
"What is it? Tell me."
"I need a place, preferably something like a bathtub, with a fire underneath to keep the temperature constant, like this."
Xiao Chen gave a brief description.
"Do you know such a place?"
"A bathtub? With a fire underneath?"
Bai Ye was stunned.
"What? Boil a person alive?"
""
After hearing Bai Ye's words, Xiao Chen was a little speechless. What is this about boiling a person alive?
"No, we need to treat Xiao Meng."
"Then you can't cook her!"
"What nonsense! This is a method of curing illness. As long as it is not heated to an unbearable temperature, it will be fine!"
Xiao Chen said unhappily.
"Oh, that's it."
Bai Ye nodded.
"Is there such a place?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Let me think about a place like this! A bathtub with a fire burning underneath and a sauna is not okay!"
""
Xiao Chen listened to Bai Ye mumbling to himself and lit a cigarette.
"Oh, I got it. Let's get a big pot, light a fire underneath, and let her stay in the pot. Isn't that enough?"
Bai Ye said loudly.
"A big pot won't work. It can't touch iron. Ceramic is best."
Xiao Chen took a puff of his cigarette. Just now he also thought of the big pot used in the countryside.
"It can't be iron? But where can I find a ceramic pot? I got it!"
"What?"
"My pharmaceutical factory has a purification device that's like a big pot! And because medicinal materials can't come into contact with iron, it's made of ceramic!"
Bai Ye said hurriedly.
"oh?"
Xiao Chen's eyes also lit up.
"How old?"
“It’s a little bigger than a bathtub, but not much.
"Where are you now? I'll come find you and take me there!"
Xiao Chen couldn't wait to say.
"Ah? Now?"
"Yes, right now. If this doesn't work, I have to think of another way!"
Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.
"Okay, let's meet at the pharmaceutical factory. I'll be there now."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
After Bai Ye told him the address, Xiao Chen hung up the phone.
Then he said something to Su Qing and drove away from the company.
After almost an hour, he arrived at the Bai family's pharmaceutical factory in the western suburbs.
"Brother Chen!"
When Xiao Chen arrived, Bai Ye had already arrived and was waiting at the door.
"Well, take me to see it."
Xiao Chen said to Bai Ye.
"Okay, let's go, I've already said hello."
Bai Ye nodded and led the way.
After entering the pharmaceutical factory, the factory director got the news and hurried over.
When he heard that Bai Ye was going to see the cauldron for purification, he was stunned.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up!"
Bai Ye urged.
"Oh, okay."
The factory director nodded quickly, led the way, and walked towards the factory with Xiao Chen and Bai Ye.
A few minutes later, Xiao Chen saw what Bai Ye said.
Below is a big stove, and on top is a ceramic pot, similar to a stew pot, the kind that goes straight up and down!
However, if people are sitting inside, they definitely cannot see it as it is almost two meters high!
Xiao Chen turned it around and was quite satisfied: "Xiao Bai, can this thing be shortened?"
"Shortened?"
Bai Ye was stunned.
"Yes, make it so you can sit cross-legged inside with your head exposed."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Use a cutting machine to cut off the top part."
"Old Chen, can you cut it off?"
Bai Ye looked at the factory manager and asked.
"Mr. Bai, if it's cut off, won't it be useless?"
The factory manager said with a wry smile.
"Stop talking nonsense. Just tell me, after cutting it off, can it still be heated?"
Bai Ye said with a frown.
"able."
"That's all, arrange for someone to cut it off from this position!"
Bai Ye measured it and said to the factory manager.
"Mr. Bai, are you really cutting it?"
The factory manager asked.
"Cut it! Now, immediately, go and arrange for people! We'll watch you cut it here, hurry up!"
Bai Ye nodded and urged.
"Oh, okay."
When the factory manager heard Bai Ye say this, what else could he say? He immediately went to arrange people.
"Brother Chen, does this thing really work?"
Bai Ye asked.
"Yeah, it should be OK. Wait until they cut it and try heating it up."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"good."
Soon, the factory manager came back with a few people and a cutting machine.
"Come on, cut from here, be careful not to break the bottom."
Bai Ye ordered.
"Hurry up and do as Master Bai says!"
The factory manager said to several workers.
"good."
A few workers nodded, took a few measurements, and started!
Hiss!
The piercing sound continued to ring out. Xiao Chen and Bai Ye did not leave, but stood by and watched.
Snap!
The first cutting machine cuts through, then starts cutting horizontally!
It took almost half an hour to finally cut off the upper part.
The upper part was cut into pieces and thrown on the ground.
"Sand the edges to make them smoother."
Without waiting for Xiao Chen to speak, Bai Ye gave the order.
"yes."
Several workers nodded and started polishing.
"Mr. Bai, what are you doing with this?"
The factory manager couldn't help but ask.
"My sister is going to take a shower, so I'd better not polish it. What if I scratch her?"
Bai Ye said.
"Ah? Taking a shower?"
The factory manager's eyes widened.
"Yes, do you have any objection?"
Bai Ye raised his eyebrows and said.
"No, I have no objection."
The factory director hurriedly shook his head. How could he dare to object?
After another half an hour, the cut area had been polished.
"Mr. Bai, is this okay?"
The factory manager asked.
"Brother Chen, what do you think?"
Bai Ye looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Yes, that's fine."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Clean up the surroundings, put some water in and heat it up."
"Okay, you all hurry up."
Bai Ye nodded and gave the order.
Once everything was ready, the wood was put into the stove below and started heating.
The flame is burning!
"I never thought that the Bai family still maintained the method of distilling with wood."
Xiao Chen looked at the burning wood and said something.
"Well, although an electric stove can work, it's definitely not as good as wood! Even though it's separated by a porcelain pot, it will still work."
The factory manager nodded and said.
"That's right."
Xiao Chen also nodded. The old fortune teller also emphasized that it is necessary to burn wood for heating!
After about ten minutes, the water temperature in the pot rose.
Xiao Chen stood on it, reached in, touched it, and showed a satisfied look.
"That's it."
"OK?"
Bai Ye asked hurriedly.
"Yes, sure. Starting tomorrow, I'll use this."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"good."
My beautiful head teacher
Bai Ye nodded and looked at the factory director.
"Tomorrow, this factory will be shut down, and all workers are not allowed to approach within 20 meters! Tell them that anyone who comes close will be kicked out!"
"ah?"
The factory manager's eyes widened.
"Mr. Bai, we still have a batch of medicine to process."
"Stop for now, no more processing!"
"But if we can't deliver on time, there will be a penalty!"
"Then compensate them! Or, find another place to process it! You can also ask other pharmaceutical factories to help with the processing. It's not like this is the only place that can process it!"
"All right."
The factory manager nodded. Since Bai Shao had said so, what else could he say!
"Remember, don't get close, okay? Also, turn off all the cameras in this factory!"
After Bai Ye finished speaking, he still felt a little worried.
"Brother Chen, I'll come over tomorrow and stand guard outside."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and patted Bai Ye's shoulder.
"Thanks a lot."
"Nothing, Xiao Meng calls me brother, so she is my sister!"
Bai Ye shook his head.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded, and then asked the factory director some more questions, such as the wood used for burning.
Afterwards, he made various preparations and called Su Xiaomeng.
"Hey, Brother Chen, what's going on?"
Su Xiaomeng's voice is not loud.
"Xiao Meng, is get out of class over?"
Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"Not yet, I'm in class."
"Ah? How come you answer the phone during class?"
"It's okay. The teacher doesn't dare to control me anyway."
Su Xiaomeng said indifferently.
""
Xiao Chen was speechless. This girl was lawless in school!
"Brother Chen, what's the matter?"
Su Xiaomeng asked.
"After class, ask your homeroom teacher for a leave of absence. For now, ask for three days."
Xiao Chen thought about it and said.
"Three days? For what?"
Su Xiaomeng asked curiously.
"I have collected enough medicinal herbs. I will start treating you tomorrow."
"Really? That's great!"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Su Xiaomeng cheered.
"Xiao Meng, when you're on the phone, can you please keep your voice down? Don't disturb other students, okay?"
Then, Xiao Chen heard the teacher's voice in the receiver.
This teacher was not scolding or commanding at all, but rather negotiating in a flattering manner!
This made Xiao Chen a little speechless. It must be very depressing for the teacher to do this!
"Oh, you guys continue, I'll keep my voice down."
Su Xiaomeng said, lowering her voice.
"Brother Chen, are you serious? I don't have to die?"
"Haha, of course not. I told you I won't let anything happen to you."
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
At the same time, he sighed in his heart. Xiao Meng was not as optimistic as she seemed, but was actually afraid.
However, she never showed it so as not to worry her sister.
"Yeah, then I'll ask for leave from my homeroom teacher after class!"
"good."
"Brother Chen, how to treat it?"
"bath."
"Ah? Taking a shower?"
"Well, I'll tell you in detail when I get back in the evening."
"good."
"You go to class first, I'm hanging up."
"Yeah, Brother Chen, thank you."
"Silly girl, do you need to say thank you to me? Go to class."
"Okay, love you, bye."
Su Xiaomeng finished speaking and hung up the phone.
""
Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then smiled. This girl.
"Brother Chen, what time tomorrow?"
"Ten o'clock, let's start at twelve."
"good."
Xiao Chen stayed in the pharmaceutical factory for a while and then left.
On the way back, he kept going over in his mind what the old fortune teller had said, to make sure nothing would go wrong the next day.
