The contest between the elders and the head of the Yin family was still going on during this period, and the situation outside was quite chaotic, so no one could pay attention to Yin Jiuxiao for a while.
Lin Qinghen occasionally contacted Yu Yinyin these days to learn about the latest situation of Diemeng Pharmacy.
I'm not very good at doing business, but everything is fine over there, so I feel relieved.
The medicine was selling very smoothly, which was a good thing and also something that Lin Qinghen had expected. Moreover, Diemeng Pharmacy's practice of not raising prices but relatively reducing prices at this critical moment was unique in the city. For many ordinary people in the city, it was a very favorable thing.
More importantly, Diemeng’s medicines are of good quality.
For the same price, our yellow-grade four-star elixir is obviously much better, with quick effects and good efficacy. Even after the rat plague is over, I'm sure we will still have a lot of repeat customers.
In Lin Qinghen's opinion, this is called brand identity and customer stickiness.
The brand name of Diemeng has truly taken its first step.
Lin Qinghen was in charge of the supply of the entire shop. Yu Yinyin would quietly come to the Lin family to take her away according to her requirements. Lin Qinghen would give her the prepared medicine in the system, and then put the red round wheat grown in the plantation and the prepared medicine base on the production table. It would not take much time to complete the handover.
Yu Yinyin had previously guessed that she had a spatial spiritual weapon on her body, and Lin Qinghen tacitly agreed to this without further explanation.
In the first few days, Yu Yinyin was still worried that if he went back to the Yin family to do this, he would be discovered. Zeng also suggested that it would be better for him to just stay in Diemeng Pharmacy.
Lin Qinghen comforted her, saying that his medicine refining method was different from the ordinary one, it didn't require much effort, and he had the "space magic weapon" in his hand, so Yin Jiuxiao couldn't see it and he could conceal it from others, so there would be no problem.
As for the research part, Lin Qinghen doesn't need a very large piece of land now, and Yin Jiuxiao's yard is enough.
If there was anything crucial that needed to be tinkered with, he would do it in the small inner room of the room, which was not used by Yin Jiuxiao and was relatively hidden. Lin Qinghen tidied it up a little and dug some soil and put it there, making it look like a simple laboratory.
No one from the Yin family paid attention to this place. They were all busy with other "important things". Besides, even if they came, they would not be able to understand it.
Yin Jiuxiao can prove this.
Although he was not blind, he did not fully understand what Lin Qinghen was doing. He only knew that Lin Qinghen was studying the soil.
I am obsessed with digging every day. Digging is the most important thing.
He was quite dirty these past few days, but Lin Qinghen would wash his hands first every time he came over to hold the baby's hand or to support the baby.
Yin Jiuxiao previously thought that since he had become Diemeng's young master and Diemeng had turned the tide during this rat plague, Lin Qinghen should have stood out and gained some attention, but that was not the case. He still lived a quiet life with him in the yard.
This person behaves as if everything going on outside has nothing to do with him.
If not for the shadow he sent that day, Yin Jiuxiao would have almost thought that this person was as simple, well-behaved and virtuous as she seemed on the surface.
However, at this time, Lin Qinghen chose not to show up and not to have a direct relationship with Diemeng Pharmacy. Naturally, there was a reason for this. The main reason was that he did not want someone with ulterior motives to focus on him.
Lin Qinghen's marriage to the Yin family bound him to this family to some extent. Many people in the Yin family haven't noticed this yet and just think that this person is as useless as Yin Jiuxiao.
With less attention, there will be less trouble, life will be much calmer, and there will be more time to do research.
If I reveal at this moment that the owner of Diemeng Pharmacy is me, will the frustrated Xu Yaoyang let me go
I won't let myself be drawn into the center of the vortex, or rather, now is not the right time.
Yin Hengxie and even Yin Jiuxiao made many mistakes, so they couldn't be counted on, so it was better to be more prudent.
The current external owner of Diemeng Pharmacy is Yu Yinyin. Yesterday, some people came to cause trouble on purpose and tried to ruin the business of the shop, but she beat them back several times.
During these several tugs of war, her affairs as a heavenly spiritual master also attracted the attention of most of the people in the City of Tears.
Yin Hengxie and many of his subordinates also knew the significance of Diemeng at this juncture, and because of the cooperation requirements, Yu Yinyin was also at the Heavenly Rank, so naturally they also had the intention of protecting and winning her over.
Now, many people in the city also know that this pharmacist has some background and is honest in selling medicine, so they trust Die Mengyu even more.
The two White Wolf alchemists who had met Lin Qinghen once could not say anything under such circumstances. Lin Qinghen was wearing a mask at that time, so they could not recognize him, let alone revenge.
It was a bit surprising that Yu Yinyin later mentioned to me the fate of these two people.
"You two were not very skilled in the first place. You two were not as good as Diemeng in treating us. A few days ago, you even regretted it and wanted to come back, but I drove you away," Yu Yinyin said. "But strangely, when you came to see me, you were both injured. I heard that someone broke his hand, and I don't know what kind of strength is left in it, so it can't be cured.
Although he is still alive, it looks like he will suffer for a long time to come."
Lin Qinghen was puzzled: "Who did it?"
"Anyway, it's not Diemeng. We've been busy lately and don't have time to care about other people," Yu Yinyin said, "Forget it, evil will be punished."
Lin Qinghen thought about it and decided not to pursue the matter any further.
But after I heard about this incident that day, I saw Yin Jiuxiao lying alone on the couch, and he looked the same as when I left.
After Lin Qinghen came back, he didn't wake up until some time later.
He would take a nap every afternoon. It seemed like a habit, a really good habit, so Lin Qinghen took advantage of this time to go to bed.
Lin Qinghen looked at her sleepy face after she got up. The first thing she did was to look for herself, and she didn't calm down until she held her hand.
"Jiuxiao," Lin Qinghen looked at him, and his heart softened. "It's not peaceful outside now. There are many hooligans in the City of Tears. You should be careful. Just listen to me during this period. Go ahead, understand?"
Yin Jiuxiao lowered his eyes and nodded: "I know."
Lin Qinghen was very satisfied and felt that this person was the most well-behaved.
Besides those things outside, there are more important things to do.
Regarding the soil research, a lot of materials are needed, so I made a list for Yu Yinyin first.
Yu Yinyin's trust in Lin Qinghen is no longer the same as before. She has long been accustomed to the fact that her disciple is not an ordinary person. Even if he explains things to her, she cannot understand them, so she might as well just go with him.
Therefore, during this period of time, no matter what Lin Qinghen asked for, she would not ask for too much and would just give it to her directly.
Moreover, Lin Qinghen didn't want anything precious, just a few designated yellow-grade mid-quality spiritual plant seeds and some miscellaneous materials.
Lin Qinghen has tried it and found that if you start from the perspective of soil, it is indeed a method that can lead to all methods.
But this is a big project and cannot be completed in a short period of time. From the perspective of completing system tasks, we can do it step by step.
I discovered that each different kind of yellow-level spiritual plant performed differently in the soil of Beizhou, and the task the system gave me only required five of them.
Therefore, Lin Qinghen brought over all the popular middle-grade yellow-level spiritual plants that could be used as medicine-making materials that he had found in Beizhou.
Yu Yinyin found more than a hundred kinds for her. She experimented with them one by one and selected the five spiritual plants with the strongest meridians.
Amaranthus and Polygonum multiflorum, one is yellow grade four stars, and the other is yellow grade five stars. Both materials can be used as the main ingredients of Lingpo Pill. Lingpo Pill is a pill that helps to better absorb spiritual power during cultivation, and it is also a very popular medicine.
For the Peiyuan Pill used before and after giving the child spiritual enlightenment, Lin Qinghen chose the yellow-grade four-star snake-eye flower.
The healing pills and hemostatic powder have similar uses. Lin Qinghen picked the yellow-grade five-star Ruorong grass.
The last tree seed is called Seven Star Wei, Yellow Rank Six Star. This material is unpopular, and the pills made from it are also unpopular, called Swift Wind Powder.
A type of elixir that exerts special functions in battle. As the name suggests, it can temporarily increase movement speed. It sounds useful, but elixirs with this type of effect are of the "instant burst" type. Generally speaking, this is a characteristic of Xuan-level elixirs.
Gale Powder is only of yellow grade six stars. Its rapid movement duration is short, its speed is not fast enough, and it has side effects after use, with a noticeable feeling of weakness, making it seem quite useless.
What’s interesting is that the five types picked by Lin Qinghen are not considered popular materials in alchemy. Except for the fact that they are strong and easy to maintain in the meridians, each has its shortcomings.
Some have a long growth period, some have poor efficacy, and some produce small quantities. They have never been the best choice for the main ingredient.
But if you persist and maintain that "stimulated" state, the spiritual plant will be very different.
Lin Qinghen currently has no way to eliminate the evil spirit in the soil. This project is too big for him now. If he can accomplish it now, not to mention the system task, the entire Beizhou will have to provide for him.
The steps were not big, and Lin Qinghen knew that he did not have the ability to do so now.
Now, he can rely on his keen perception to mix different soils, trying to maintain the concentration of the demonic energy in it at the dimension he wants.
The spiritual plants will still die after being planted, but this is the one that can last the longest. This concentration can also stimulate a fleeting state of excitement. If it is a little less, there will not be the state that Lin Qinghen wants.
The several spiritual plants that he found were relatively strong. After Lin Qinghen adjusted the soil ratio, it seemed that as long as he adjusted it a little more, he would be successful.
But after working with the soil, Lin Qinghen hit a research bottleneck.
The only difference is that “little bit”.
The initial research method was to add protective substances when the plants were in the excited state to help them survive.
At the beginning, he tried to add concentrated spiritual liquid at the critical moment to attract spiritual power to offset the evil spirit, but it failed. The sudden addition of external spiritual power made his spiritual plants, which were already in a fragile state, unable to adapt and died faster.
Lin Qinghen tried all the other potions with protective properties that he could find, but none of them worked.
Yin Jiuxiao has been feeling very distressed these past few days.
Because the fact that there was demonic energy in the body had been made clear, Yin Jiuxiao and Lin Qinghen could discuss the matter directly.
"What methods are there to fight against demonic energy?" Lin Qinghen asked, as if he was also thinking about himself.
Yin Jiuxiao thought about it seriously and replied: "If you understand my feelings, then don't fight against the evil spirit, guide it, or use it. Only by treating it as an enemy can you survive."
Lin Qinghen seemed to have some vague ideas in his mind because of this sentence, but it was not clear. He talked with Yin Jiuxiao again and felt that the other party seemed to be a doctor after suffering from long-term illness.
Don't fight it.
I pondered over this sentence from day till late at night.
Because Yin Jiuxiao was blind and needed care all the time, Lin Qinghen slept in the same bed with him from the beginning.
The bed in this room is big, so it's not crowded and I'm quite used to it.
As for Yin Jiuxiao, he could smell the scent of grass and trees on Lin Qinghen's body, which was a very soothing scent. It even made him calm down a little when he was practicing, and it was even better when he was resting at night.
Over the years, Lin Qinghen was the only one who didn't feel repulsed when lying next to him, and he naturally accepted him since they got married.
But Lin Qinghen's distress was more obvious at night. Even if Yin Jiuxiao was really blind, the mumbling sound would still fill his ears.
It was just like the first time I met this person. As soon as things didn't go well, I started talking to myself, as if repeating it a few more times would dispel my doubts.
"Don't resist, don't resist, this evil spirit..."
This time, not only did he hear it, he also saw that Lin Qinghen's eyes were slightly wrinkled. He didn't look discouraged, but just a little pitiful.
Yin Jiuxiao found it funny and raised his hand to pull her closer.
"Why are you still thinking about it now? If I had known, I wouldn't have told you."
That statement is true, but how could it be so easy to utilize demonic energy
It's not something that can be done in just one or two days.
Lin Qinghen was not opposed to getting closer to him. He felt that Yin Jiuxiao was becoming more and more to his liking, especially now that he was the only person with whom he would discuss his research.
Then Yin Jiuxiao felt this person's arm around his waist, and he naturally pulled him in to hug him.
