Chapter three hundred and eighteen selling medicine
Beidi Chengguanyi, the temporary residence of the investigation team.
"Zhenbei Gong didn't agree!"
With a heavy face, General Lei told the regiment leader Xiong Gang the bad news. Chen Longcheng, the Duke of Zhenbei, did not agree to the investigation group's request and once again asked Chen Ying to cooperate.
"Hey, speaking of which, our performance is also unfavorable!"
Xiong Gang didn't mean to be angry and sighed helplessly: "It's no wonder that Duke Zhenbei looked down upon us and didn't agree to our request!"
If it were him, he would have to weigh it carefully. If he didn't do it right, his son might get involved.
It doesn't matter whether he pays attention to it or not, but the Zhenbei Palace only has four sons, and the relatives are not able to support him. Chen Longcheng will definitely not send his son to death at will, even if Chen Ying is a concubine.
"What should we do?"
General Lei had a headache. He had experienced a dangerous journey in the Snowy Mountains. To be honest, he was a little afraid of the Snowy Mountains.
Without the support of someone with special abilities like Chen Ying, he would not want to continue deep into the hinterland of the Snowy Mountains.
Last time we had Chen Ying's support and we escaped, but what about next time...
Not to mention the endless ferocious birds and beasts in the hinterland of the Snowy Mountains, the wolves in the valley alone are not easy to deal with.
That is, there are thousands of wolves...
"If it really doesn't work, we can only ask the Imperial Capital for help!"
Xiong Gang would not rashly let his members of the investigation team die just to save face.
Each of these guys has their own background, and even Xiong Gang wouldn't dare to offend them all.
At this moment, Bai Sheng knocked on the door and came in, saying: "Ambassador, deputy ambassador, Chen Ying is here, saying that he has business to do with the investigation team!"
When he said this, his face looked a little strange...
Xiong Gang and General Lei were also puzzled, but they still asked Bai Sheng to invite Chen Ying in to talk.
"Two ambassadors, don't talk nonsense!"
After the polite meeting, Chen Ying directly stated his purpose of visit: "General Lei and Brother Bai Sheng should know the efficacy of bear bile pills. I am here to sell bear bile pills!"
As he said that, he took out two exquisite small porcelain bottles and said with a smile: "A bottle of ten bear bile pills is worth a thousand taels of silver!"
"Are you here to sell medicine?"
Xiong Gang couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, and didn't know what to say.
But the reactions of General Lei and Bai Sheng made him swallow the next words.
General Lei and Bai Sheng each grabbed a small porcelain bottle, pulled out the stopper and poured out the bear bile pills. Bai Sheng said angrily: "Isn't this one too small?"
Previously, in the snowy mountains, Chen Ying had just brewed bear gallbladder pills, each of which was about the size of a thumb. But now, one pill is only the size of a soybean, which has shrunk by at least one-seventh.
General Lei didn't look very good either, he just didn't speak.
"This is a pill I carefully prepared after I came back!"
Chen Ying was not embarrassed at all, and said leisurely: "The effect is much better than that roughly brewed in the hinterland of the Snowy Mountains. Buy it if you like!"
"Okay, I want both bottles, is there anything else?"
General Lei acted vigorously and resolutely, poured the pills in his palm back into the small porcelain bottle, and said directly: "I want as many as you have!"
"How heroic!"
Without further ado, Chen Ying showed all the remaining eighteen bottles of bear bile pills that he had brought, took the golden ticket handed over by General Lei, and said goodbye without hesitation and neatness.
"General Lei, what are you..."
Xiong Gang stared at all this with his mouth open, unable to recover for a long time.
Twenty thousand taels of silver was naturally nothing, but giving it to Chen Ying so easily made him feel a bit worthless.
"Haha, the leader doesn't know!"
General Lei showed a rare smile, put away all the small porcelain bottles containing bear bile pills, and said leisurely: "These bear bile pills are all good things!"
"General Lei, give me two bottles!"
Bai Sheng's face was full of remorse and he said depressedly: "I can't miss such a good thing. Isn't it just two thousand taels of silver?"
"It's not about money anymore!"
General Lei said calmly: "Do you think I am short of money?"
"Then what do you mean..."
Bai Sheng was so depressed that he almost vomited blood. If he had known this, he shouldn't have said more just now.
"One bottle is a favor, it's up to you!"
General Lei's voice was calm and he said calmly: "If you don't want it, you can go to that guy Chen Ying and continue to buy it!"
"Forget it, I want two bottles!"
Bai Sheng was dejected and said gloomily: "That boy is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He can take out twenty bottles of bear bile pills in one go, which is already very generous!"
"What are you..."
Watching General Lei use two bottles of bear bile pills to exchange two favors from Bai Sheng, Xiong Gang was really shocked.
Bai Sheng himself is not bad, and the family behind him is also quite strong.
His two favors are worth at least more than 20,000 taels, which cannot even be measured in silver.
General Lei was in a good mood, so he told him about Chen Ying giving him bear bile pills when he was fleeing for his life in the hinterland of the Snowy Mountains.
He shook his head and said: "This boy is really versatile. The bear bile pills I made in a hurry at that time are already quite good. After swallowing one, I immediately regained my energy. Even my Qi cultivation has also improved a little.
!”
Having said this, he patted the eighteen small porcelain bottles in his arms and said with a smile: "I'm afraid not, I want to successfully break through the innateness, these bear gallbladder pills can help a lot!"
Xiong Gang's eyes widened and he said loudly: "Yes, yes, give me two bottles too, so I owe you two favors!"
He is only half a step away from the innate realm. Every extra point accumulated now is the qualifications for advancing to the innate realm. He definitely doesn't have too much.
With Xiong Gang's current level of cultivation, it is impossible to accumulate more infuriating energy.
If he could suddenly increase a little bit of his true qi power through medicinal means, it might be of great benefit to him to break through his innate nature.
General Lei hesitated, but finally gave Xiong Gang two small porcelain bottles and told the two people around him not to leak the news. He had no intention of giving away the last sixteen bottles of Xiong Gall Pills.
"I don't think this kid Chen Ying actually has such exquisite pharmaceutical methods?"
After carefully accepting the two small porcelain bottles, Xiong Gang couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that we made a wrong calculation before. This guy probably has no intention of going into the mountains!"
"Then should we target the hatchet youth?"
General Lei nodded in agreement, but he didn't really want to continue into the Snowy Mountains. It was too dangerous.
However, if you give up, the responsibility will be big or small, and he is only the deputy head of the investigation team, so it is not his turn to make the decision.
"It's a pity. It would be best if we could attract the hatchet young man to come out!"
Xiong Gang didn't plan to continue to rush in, but half of the members of the investigation team had died. It would be difficult to communicate without an explanation.
"Why don't we act rashly first!"
Bai Sheng suggested: "It won't be too late for us to find a way to deal with the hatchet youth after we have a thorough understanding of the situation in Beidicheng and even master some of the resources!"
Xiong Gang and General Lei looked at each other, and they both saw the heartbeat in each other's eyes...
Actions are worse than impulses, and soon the investigation team held a small meeting, and basically unified their thoughts: temporarily abandon the plan to surround and kill the hatchet youth!
The tragic death of half of their comrades without any body left had already made the remaining members of the investigation team feel guilty. Now the leader and deputy leader who heard this were willing to put aside such troublesome matters, so they naturally received unanimous approval.
Afterwards, the members of the investigation team made some showy moves, which made Beidicheng's senior officials and even Zhenbeigong Chen Longcheng a little confused.
While they were shouting that they were going to deal with the hatchet youth, they actually did not go into the mountains. Instead, they used their status as envoys from the Imperial City to slowly control the Beidi Prefecture, and at the same time also controlled part of the Beidi City defense force.
in hand.
By the time Zhenbei Gong Chen Longcheng and a group of high-level officials from the Northland reacted, the investigation team had completely established its foothold, and there was nothing they could do unless they broke up with each other.
…
The battle between the investigation team and the top management of Beidi has little to do with Chen Ying, and it is unlikely to affect him.
At this time, he had successfully dropped out of Beidi Academy and could devote himself to building the manor of his dreams.
Relying on the 20,000 taels of silver exchanged for Xiong Dan Wan, he recruited some retired soldiers from the frontier army and some young men from the North. They went directly to build a village under a branch of the Snowy Mountains, leaving early and returning home late.
It is a valley, the edge of which borders the branches of the Snowy Mountains. You can directly enter the Snowy Mountains along the valley, but it is also an edge within the edge of the Snowy Mountains.
The terrain in the hinterland of the valley is gentle, covering about a hundred hectares, and there are two rivers with abundant water crossing it. It is a good place with mountains and water.
With experience in managing and building imperial estates in the Red Mansion World, building a manor from scratch is not a troublesome thing for Chen Ying.
As long as there is enough labor and there is no shortage of money and food to build the manor, everything is just a matter of time.
Chen Ying's thoughts are not small. He wants to build a pure water-powered manor that is as convenient as modern ones.
Just drawing pictures took him a lot of time...
Fortunately, he did not want to become fat in one go and divided the construction of the manor into batches, instead of successfully building it in one go. He didn't have that much money.
It's enough to sell the Bear Gall Pill once. If you sell it several times, you can't keep it a secret. If the government finds out, who knows how many twists and turns it will cause?
Apart from anything else, if the mistress of the palace doesn't take out all the good things in his hands, he can't expect to be able to leave the palace smoothly.
If the mistress of the palace showed enough goodwill after he was reborn from time travel, maybe Chen Ying would take the initiative to provide Chen Wu, his second brother, with enough elixirs for his cultivation and promotion.
such a pity……
The mistress of the princess acted too calmly and almost regarded him as nothing. There was nothing to say. If you want to take advantage, you have to pay a sufficient price.
Chen Ying built the manor on the edge of the Snowy Mountains not only to grow and produce food, but also to receive the ferocious beasts that brewed the Snowy Mountains.
When the first phase of the manor project is completed, the flesh and blood essence of the ferocious birds and beasts on the Snowy Mountains can be collected with great fanfare...
