After three rounds of drinking, Bai Jingxuan spit out a faint smell of alcohol, and said to Gu Ye who was nibbling on a chicken leg: "The affordable children's medicine plan you proposed has really made our Jimintang gain countless reputation and profits. However, the benefits are all let down. We Jimintang occupied it, and I feel a little sorry for Miss Gu. If Miss Gu didn’t insist on hiding her name, she would definitely have become famous in one battle!”

"This is the rule of our teacher's school. If you haven't been a teacher, you can't use the name of your teacher's door and your own. You don't need to feel sorry for the third uncle. After I leave the teacher, just return my reputation to me!" Gu Ye He nibbled at the chicken paws with relish and waved his hands carelessly.

Bai Jingxuan asked tentatively, "I don't know how much this child's medication can be provided by Miss Gu every month? The first few state capitals' Jimintang are in danger of running out of stock."

Gu Ye thought for a while and said, "At present, I am the only one, and the number of medicines produced is not large. I am going to wait for the warm spring next year to find a few reliable people to form a pharmaceutical workshop, specializing in the production of children's medicines."

Bai Jingxuan was overjoyed when he heard the words: "That's great! If this children's medicine can be promoted nationwide, it would be a good thing for the benefit of children all over the world! My third brother, Bai, will give the children a toast to the girl."

Gu Ye picked up the soup bowl and said with a smile, "I'm young and weak, so I can't drink. But the kindness of the third uncle Bai was disrespectful to Ye, so I used soup instead of the bar!"

"It's good to use soup instead of wine, do it!" Bai Jingxuan laughed, drank his glass of wine, and ate two mouthfuls of vegetables before continuing, "However, please forgive me for reminding Bai Lao San for his remarks, the prescription for children's medicine has to be Do a good job of keeping secrets and hold them tightly in the girl's hands."

Gu Ye nodded and said, "Don't worry, Ye knows what to do. Thank you Third Uncle Bai for reminding me."

After dinner, Gu Ye took out the children's medicine he brought over and asked Bai Jingxuan to count it. This time, the amount of medication for children was ten times that of the last time, but Bai Jingxuan was overjoyed.

The price that Gu Ye sold to Jimintang was only 10% higher than the cost of medicine for children. And the profit left to Jimin Church is only 10%. After deducting the cost of transportation and operation, it can be said that Jimintang hardly makes any money.

However, at this time, word of mouth and honor are far more valuable than profits. The word of mouth of Jimintang went out, and the people trusted, and the turnover of other medicines also went up. The sales volume of the few stores that launched children's medicines in just a few days actually exceeded the previous month's volume. Not only created a miracle in the history of sales, but also left those competitors far behind. This was something Jimintang could not have imagined before.

It is believed that with the promotion and popularization of children's medicine, Jimintang will surely become a well-established drugstore that can compete with time-honored brands such as "Baicaotang", "Baohetang" and "Tongjitang". The Bai family will also usher in their glory!

It was agreed with Bai Jingxuan that the last batch of medicinal materials will be delivered in the twenty-eighth year, among which the medicines for children are the main ones. He also put forward some of his own opinions on the pharmaceutical workshop, and Bai Jingxuan also gave feasible suggestions.

It was not until the third clock struck that Bai Jingxuan reluctantly left the guest room Jimin Hall learned that Gu Ye and his disciples lived in seclusion in the mountains, and specially prepared two exclusive guest rooms for them in the backyard. For Gu Ye, staying in a guest room is more comfortable than an inn, and it can save a fortune, so why not do it

Early the next morning, Gu Ye took the more than 280 taels of silver from Jimintang, and went to buy New Year's goods with a lot of money. With a large family, purchasing food is a must. I picked up 200 catties of white rice and flour, yellow rice, glutinous rice, kidney beans, red beans, etc. I also bought 20 catties of pastries and the like, and made them at home. Gu Ye naturally happily responded, Aunt Yan's craftsmanship is definitely better than the one bought in town!

The cloth, the Jun family and the Chu family can't wear it all, so there is no need to buy it. Passing by the butcher's shop, Gu Ye eagerly wanted to buy more, but was stopped by his grandfather. Before the festival, people who have pigs in Qingshan Village and nearby villages will kill the pigs. Pork is cheaper than the one in the town, and it also saves the labor of transportation.

As a result, there is not much to buy. Gu Ye went to the grocery store and bought a lot of condiments such as oil, salt, sauce, sugar, and a lot of spices such as star anise, pepper, bay leaves, and cumin. Gu Ye never thought that he could buy such a complete range of condiments!

This is her first new year. There is no battle, no strife, and no mutant beasts. She has also received the care of her grandfather and brother, and she must celebrate it lively. Gu Ye walked around the market a few times, killing two chickens, two geese, and two ducks.

When I met a fish seller, I bought two carp that weighed three pounds. The nameless town relies on mountains but not water, and two fish are much more expensive than chickens and ducks. But Gu Ye is not short of money now, and the very local tyrants didn't even cut the price, and paid the money directly.

Gu Xiao and Gu Ming looked at each other and smiled bitterly. The money in their hands could not be put out at all, and they were reduced to carrying bags. By this time their hands and shoulders were full. well! Having a capable granddaughter and sister is really stressful! They reluctantly looked at Gu Ye who was strolling in front of them with great interest, and resigned themselves to continue to play the role of sidekicks.

It wasn't until the sun slanted that Gu Ye returned to the house with no end in sight. As soon as he arrived near the Jimin Hall, he saw Ding Dashao supporting his father and came out of the Jimin Hall with a happy expression on his face.

"Miss Gu, I'll wait for you to come back." Young Master Ding's attitude was very enthusiastic and earnest. If it wasn't for Gu Xiao's body to block him, he would definitely have rushed over to hold Gu Ye's hand.

"Member Ding, Young Master Ding, who are you feeling unwell?" Gu Ye felt a little strange when he saw the two of them flushed, not like they were sick. Didn't he make a special trip to Jimintang to find her? Last time, she left enough medicine for the two men for three months, and she definitely didn't come to buy medicine!

Ding Dashao laughed and said: "Isn't this the Chinese New Year? There is no way to eat meat during the Chinese New Year, so my father came to Jimintang to check on the doctor to see if his body has improved, and can he be accommodated? eat some meat"

Ding Yuanwai blushed, glared at his son and said, "Stop talking about Lao Tzu! You can't help it anymore, and you want to eat meat!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Ding Da rarely saw his old man getting angry and hurriedly said, "Is it because I am greedy? Don't you want to eat a few pieces of fat braised pork?"

Ding Yuan choked for a moment, and said in a low voice: "After eating vegetarian for a few months, a bird is about to fade out of my mouth. I'm eating pig's trotters in my dreams. It's strange that I don't want to eat meat!"

Gu Ye was amused by the father and son. She tried her best to hold back her smile and said, "Can't you eat chicken, duck, fish, and lean beef and mutton?"

"Eat those, how can you eat pig's trotters with energy!" Ding Yuanwai glanced at his stomach a little sadly. In the past two months, he has lost a lot of weight, his stomach is also two sizes smaller, and his clothes are also have to do it all over again.

Gu Ye bit his lip, restrained his smile, and said to Young Master Ding, "What's the result of the inspection?"

The joy on Ding Dashao's face became even stronger: "Thanks to Miss Gu, my heart disease can no longer be diagnosed from the pulse. My father's symptoms have also eased a lot. This is all because of Miss Gu and your help. Pill's credit."

Hearing this, Gu Ye was a little surprised. She was now learning pulse diagnosis, so she couldn't help feeling the pulse of Ding Da and Shao and his son. Sure enough, Ding Dashao's pulse was steady and strong, and he had no symptoms at all. Ding's heart disease is also within the controllable range.

Generally speaking, heart disease is difficult to recover without surgery. A miracle was created by Young Master Ding. Could it be because of the dew on the petals of the little red lotus in the space

"How, how?" Ding Da rarely saw her frowning, his heart sank, and he asked anxiously, "Little genius doctor, we won't have a good time for nothing, right?"

"The doctor in Jimintang is right, you can stop taking the medicine. In the future, pay attention to your diet and exercise regularly." Gu Ye gave him a reassurance pill, "As for Ding, you can stop the medicine for a while. When you feel uncomfortable, take Jiuxin Pill again."

"Then, can we eat pork trotters and braised pork during Chinese New Year?" Ding Yuanwai's father and son looked expectantly, as if a puppy begging for meat and bones from its owner was about to wag its tail.

Gu Ye looked at the two men helplessly, and sighed: "You can eat a small amount, but you can't eat a lot. Usually, you have to pay attention to your diet, and try to eat less food that is high in oil and sugar."

"How much is a small amount? Please say something famous!" Ding Yuanwai's desire for health far exceeded his appetite. He has tasted death before, and he doesn't want to taste it again!

"In one day, such a large amount of fat can't exceed three pieces, and fat and thin can't exceed five pieces!" Gu Ye compared the mahjong-sized cubes with his hands.

"Ah? You can only eat so much!" Although Ding Yuan's father and son were a little disappointed, they still nodded like a good baby.

After sending off the wonderful father and son, Gu Ye entered the guest room, only to find out that Ding Yuanwei's father and son had brought her a New Year's gift, nothing more than clothing, jewelry and cakes.

Gu Ye's eyes were attracted by a splendid silk satin. At first glance, the material does not have any color, but with the change of light and angle, there is a flashing and moving splendor. She couldn't help but reached out and touched it, the material was as silky as milk, and as soft and soft as the finest suet jade.

Bai Jingxuan knocked on the door and walked in. Seeing her stroking the cloth, he quickly said, "This is the silkworm silk that was brought over by your teacher. The entire Dongling Kingdom can only produce five or six horses a year, and most of them are used as tributes. Tribute to the country of Yan. Those noble ladies in the capital, if they can get a silk handkerchief of a silkworm silk, they will be enviable and enviable, not to mention a whole piece of material! Medicine Sage, he really loves you!"

"I'm his precious disciple, who doesn't he hurt me?" Gu Ye took it for granted. However, she gained a better understanding of Master's connections. With such a rare material, he gave it away as soon as he gave it away, and he really deserved to be a well-known medicine sage!
