Chapter 163 Finding Herbs



Lady Mo is always very generous, and everyone wants to come. This time, the two of them were quick to arrive, but next time it might be different.

"Ah, did Mo Qianshang really buy this mountain?"

The people of Fushou Village were dumbfounded. How much would it cost to buy a whole mountain?

In an instant, the people of Fushou Village hated Mo Qianshang even more. She was so rich, why did she go to Dongshan Village to ask people for help with the work? They were all from the same village, why didn't she ask them for help?

"Get out of here right now! If we see you trespassing again, we'll take you straight to the yamen and have you flogged!"

The people of Fushou Village ran away as fast as they could, without daring to look back.

Mo Qianshang took out a tael of silver and handed it to the two of them, saying, "It's just a small matter, but I'm sorry to have troubled you to make this trip. I'll treat you to some wine, so please don't refuse."

The official didn't stand on ceremony with her and happily took the silver and left.

Master Wen admired Mo Qianshang from the bottom of his heart for her great abilities.

They completely ignored how Mo Qianshang taught people a lesson.

Mo Qianshang followed Master Wen around for a while. She planned to make some jade accessories for all the children in the family, as she herself also liked them.

"I'm here to pick out a piece of jade to make some jewelry for my home. Do you have any recommendations?"

Mo Qianshang wasn't very knowledgeable in the field either, but Master Wen was. It's best to leave professional matters to professionals.

Without further ado, Master Wen took Mo Qianshang directly to the fabric samples that had been prepared earlier.

Mo Qianshang immediately took a liking to a piece of material that looked very clear and translucent. Following her gaze, Third Master Wen also saw that it was indeed a good piece of material.

"You have good taste; this material is quite suitable."

Master Wen had someone move this piece of material away. He wondered if Mo Qianshang had any ideas. He could find a sculptor first.

Mo Qianshang conceived a few ideas in her mind, which she planned to draw. They were all simple designs; she couldn't come up with anything more complicated.

"Have you decided on the design yet? I have a sculptor here, so don't worry about that. If you can't decide on the design, I can also find someone to help you."

Master Wen was just waiting for Mo Qianshang to speak; as soon as she did, he would immediately give orders to her.

Mo Qianshang smiled and said, "I do have a few ideas. Let me draw a diagram for you."

The two entered the front hall, where servants brought paper and brushes, ground the ink, and Mo Qianshang prepared to begin painting.

A servant came to serve tea and pastries. Although Master Wen was a little curious, he waited patiently.

I wonder what kind of surprise Mo Qianshang will give him.

Mo Qianshang drew two simple bracelets, a few simple hairpins, and a few more complex designs.

The hairpin is decorated with a phoenix on the body, a snow lotus on the head, and a lotus pendant below.

A hairpin shaped like a butterfly, depicted as if about to take flight, with tassels hanging below.

One is the most common jade hairpin style, except that it is carved with some patterns.

After Mo Qianshang finished painting, he just waited for the ink to dry. Master Wen suppressed his curiosity and waited patiently.

He only looked at it carefully after Mo Qianshang handed it to him.

Mo Qianshang didn't know if there were any similar designs; she could only draw these because she had seen them before.

She picked up her teacup and took two sips, then kept quiet when she saw him looking at her intently.

"These are all very good, except for one that is a bit complicated. The others are not a big problem."

When Master Wen saw this picture, his eyes lit up. He had never seen a hairpin like this before. If he made more of these and sold them at a high price, people would definitely buy them.

It's just a matter of whether Mo Qianshang is willing. If so, he could buy the painting outright.

Seeing that Third Master Wen seemed interested, Mo Qianshang knew that the painting would most likely be sold.

Although she is interested in unique things, she still loves money more now.

Just like how she loves money in modern times, who would complain about having too much money? Of course, the more the better!

Master Wen took out three silver notes, each worth one thousand taels, which could be withdrawn from a specialized money exchange.

"Three thousand taels. I'll take this picture. If it sells, I'll split it 20/80. How about that?"

Mo Qianshang considered it and decided it wasn't a bad idea; she could just take the dividends directly anyway.

"make a deal."

Mo Qianchang put the silver notes into her sleeve and, under the guise of it, stored them into the system.

"I want three identical bracelets, and a pair of hairpins."

Master Wen agreed to all of Mo Qianshang's requests, since it wasn't a big deal anyway.

When Mo Qianshang left, Third Master Wen was still studying the blueprints, and she didn't disturb him.

It's a good opportunity to go check out the back mountain. There's no one with us now, so it would be great if we could find something valuable.

Mo Qianshang wandered around the mountain for half a day, but all she found were some mushrooms and ordinary wild vegetables.

She refused to believe it. Even if she couldn't find anything good, she was willing to discover some new edible things.

Thinking back to when they trained in the wild, there was always plenty of food in the forest. Seeing the nearby mountains and forests, Mo Qianchang plunged in.

Seeing many wild rabbits scattering in all directions, Mo Qianshang didn't hunt them but let them go. She came this time to look for something else.

For example, herbs and the like.

Wild medicinal herbs like these are abundant in the mountains, but many people don't recognize them as medicinal herbs and only regard them as weeds.

While picking mushrooms, Mo Qianshang looked around. She didn't find any medicinal herbs, but she sold quite a few mushrooms.

It seems we're not meant to be today.

Mo Qianshang turned away with regret, because she had treated finding medicinal herbs as a simple matter.

Some people spend their entire lives without ever encountering such a thing, so how could she expect to find good medicinal herbs just by coming out?

Mo Qianshang returned home, not feeling too down, after all, she had already earned three thousand taels of silver today.

Suddenly, the system's trading panel was activated.

【bite--】

[Is *Anoectochilus roxburghii* (Golden Thread Orchid), 800 taels/piece, for sale?]

Mo Qianchang was surprised that she actually found it. Golden Thread Lotus is a good thing. It is known as the king of medicines in folk medicine. It has the effects of clearing heat and cooling blood, detoxifying, relieving pain, suppressing cough, anti-aging, and regulating immunity.

There are five or six around here, we really hit the jackpot today!

Mo Qianshang happily began digging for herbs, carefully digging one out and keeping it for herself, exchanging the rest for silver.

A full four thousand eight hundred taels!

Mo Qianshang's mood immediately improved. After calculating her belongings, she realized that she was quite wealthy.

Mo Qianshang hurried down the mountain, took an oxcart home, and said that she would be very happy to give the medicinal herbs to Xiao Yaoshi when she got home.

Now that she's at home, she has nothing to do except sew clothes. Maybe we should buy her some medical books from the system so she has something to do.

As she pondered, Mo Qianshang opened the system panel and started looking for medical books. Two thousand taels of silver for a book was only for the beginner level, while intermediate medical books cost ten thousand taels of silver each, and advanced medical books cost one hundred thousand taels of silver each.
