Qin Muwen's face was so red that water could drip, and his fingertips were soft.
But Li Jin took his hand and gave him no chance to back down.
Qin Muwen simply buried his face in Li Jin's neck, closed his eyes, and didn't look at anything.
Rubbing against the water vapor that Li Jin had just taken a bath, his fingers moved slowly.
This kind of thing can be learned without a teacher. Qin Muwen was a little jerky at first, but after being led by Li Jin, he gradually started to learn it by himself.
Qin Muwen was ashamed of his learning ability.
Li Jin didn't speak, except for the sound of oil lamps and lanterns exploding occasionally in the room, it was the sound of their breathing.
After a long time, Qin Muwen quietly looked at Li Jin's expression, and found that this person was still serious, not blushing at all...
Li Jin changed his trousers and rushed again quickly. When he went back, Qin Muwen had his back turned to him, revealing a slender and fair neck.
Li Jin knew that he was being shy, so he just lay down again and held the person in his arms.
"Nice dream."
The next day, Li Jin only brought fifteen hawthorn pills to Xinglintang.
Before he could explain, Dr. Wu said, "But I've been too tired to make medicine recently? Be sure to pay attention to your body."
Li Jin didn't say that he didn't have enough hawthorn. After all, he was counting on this Xiaoshi Pill to make money recently, and Fangzi didn't want to leak it for the time being.
He answered vaguely, and said, "Today, let's see how many patients actively buy, there are still thirty-nine hawthorn pills in total. If they can be sold out in the morning, then I will come over at noon to discuss formal cooperation with the shopkeeper. matter."
When Doctor Wu heard the words, his expression was also stern, and he said, "Okay."
As a result, not long after Li Jin left, the person who only bought four yesterday came to ask, "Is there any more Xiaoshi pills? My children are finally willing to eat!"
This person hurriedly took eight directly away.
Doctor Wu and Zhou Gui looked at each other, and both saw excitement in each other's eyes.
This pill sells fast, and Xing Lintang's fame will be out, and they will all go up.
Li Jin came over at noon, and the shopkeeper was already waiting in the hall.
The shopkeeper was shocked when Dr. Wu described the effects and sales of the 'Xiaoshi Pills'. He couldn't wait to invite Li Jin to have a meal first, so he discussed the Xiaoshi Pills with him first.
The shopkeeper had even prepared a pen and paper, and only thought that after the negotiation with Li Jin, the two would sign and sign.
After all, it is prudent to have a contract for something that is related to money.
The shopkeeper said: "The price is good now. I heard from Dr. Wu that there are two kinds of medicinal materials needed to make Xiaoshi Pills, Jiao Sanxian and Divine Comedy. Well, the medicinal materials are provided in my store, you can take as much as you want.
Of course, I also know that these two kinds of medicinal materials are very cheap, and this medicine refining ability is only of Dr. Li's family.
So, if you divide it, according to twenty-eight points, I will be two and you will be eight. How about it? "
Li Jin didn't dare to accept the shopkeeper's kindness so directly.
He said: "Twenty-eight is a bit too cheap for me. Although the bulk of the cost is hawthorn, Xinglintang has taken the risk of this drug. According to thirty-seven points, it is appropriate."
The shopkeeper looked at Li Jin and thought to himself, Li Jin can be so unmoved by external things, he is really someone who does big things because of the consequences.
It's a pity that the temple here is too small to accommodate this big Buddha.
In the end, the two of them drew up a contract, signed and signed the contract, and the contract was in duplicate.
The above only stated the amount of 'Xiao Shi Pills' provided by Li Jin for the next year, no less than 30 per day.
In the afternoon of the same day, Li Jin communicated with the owner of the garden, and the owner said that he would be able to deliver the hawthorn in the evening.
Two hundred catties of hawthorn were all piled up in the corner of the study. Li Jin took out the herbs he had prepared and began to grind it with a pestle.
Qin Muwen, on the other hand, handles sugar cubes and boils sugar water in the kitchen.
Li Jin thought that the pills could be dried, wrapped, and stored, but the hawthorn was no good. He didn't have a special cellar at home, so he could only transport all the prepared pills to Xinglintang, which had its own storage place.
Two hundred catties of hawthorn cost a total of one or two silver and can make about six thousand Xiaoshi pills. Li Jin also makes up to 180 pieces a day.
And after the herbal medicine is provided by the shopkeeper, 30 Xiaoshi pills cost 15 cents.
One hundred and eighty pieces would cost ninety cents.
But if all this is sold, you can earn three hundred and sixty cents. Li Jin got 70% and earned 252 wen.
Excluding the cost price, the net profit is one hundred and sixty-two cents.
In this way, if all the hawthorns are finished in a month, the net profit will be five taels of silver!
Although this money is not enough for him to buy a house in the town, but at least the home is not only inaccessible.
Second, scooping and grinding medicinal materials and hawthorn with a pestle is also a kind of exercise for Li Jin.
Doctor Wu thought that thirty pills per day was the limit for Li Jin. When he saw Li Jin's contract with the shopkeeper, he brought nearly two hundred pills the next day.
Can the legendary refining medicine also be mass-produced
For a whole September, Li Jin was busy working on Xiaoshi Pills. Except for some that were accidentally discarded, he finally finished making 200 catties of hawthorn.
The shopkeeper directly paid him the money, which was a full eight taels of silver. Of course, this was the gross profit. I spent about three taels of silver to buy sugar cubes and hawthorn.
But this also directly gave Qin Muwen's small treasury more than 12 taels of silver for the first time.
He patted the mattress at the foot of the bed every day before going to bed, and then solemnly placed the small buns on it.
Li Jin watched his movements and said with a smile, "You are so happy with ten taels of silver?"
Qin Muwen nodded: "In February next year, A Jin will have to go to the county for the exam."
Li Jin pinched his cheek: "Didn't you think about buying yourself a cotton-padded coat to keep out the cold?"
Qin Muwen said with an 'ahh': "I don't really need this. I've been at home all winter, and there are earth dragons in our house now!"
Li Jin thought, even if there is an earth dragon, it is still in the house, and the boy doesn't stay in the house all the time.
He should have gone to the cloth village recently to inquire about the price of the cotton-padded clothes. It is best to wear a circle of white burrs. When the teenager wears it, only a small face is revealed, which must be very good-looking.
A few days later, Li Dahe asked Li Jin to go to his house to get a chicken coop and a bunch of toys for Xiaobaozi.
Qin Muwen looked at these toys and sipped two deep dimples.
Li Jin said: "He can't play now, but he can play when he grows up."
Qin Muwen took the initiative to hug Li Jin's waist and buried his face on his body, "Well."
How fortunate to have met such a man in this life.
Qin Muwen has not been idle these days. He tied the persimmon he knocked down with hemp rope and hung it upside down from the beam of the kitchen.
When Li Jin is free occasionally, he secretly picks one and eats it.
Qin Muwen endured it all the time. He said, "Wait until it snows, that's when the persimmons are the best."
Li Jin didn't understand the principle of this, but in fact, the experience of farmers generally does not cause too many problems.
So he and the boy endured until it snowed.
The skin of persimmons is thin, and although it is small, its color is fiery red. When it is gently torn, the skin is easily detached. One bite of persimmon, accompanied by the snow scene of the distant mountains, makes people feel a little tranquil.
Now Li Jin's painting skills can be mastered. The young man has a small mouth, so he wants to learn Li Jin's one bite at a time, but his cheeks are puffed up, which is very cute.
Li Jin painted this scene, rolled it into a scroll, and placed it in the painting tube in the study.
As the weather gets colder, the five chickens in the family huddle together to protect themselves from the wind chill.
Li Jin made a curtain for the chicken coop with old clothes that he couldn't wear at home to trap the heat inside. Let them also spend the winter in peace.
Li Zhuzi would often take advantage of the good weather to ask Li Jin to go up the mountain to collect firewood together.
One is that there is a companion who also takes care of them, and the other is that both of them have built ground dragons, which consumes a lot of firewood, and the ones picked up in the late autumn are simply not enough.
Li Zhuzi often said: "My children are all here to collect debts. If the third child is not too young, I will definitely not be promoted here."
Li Jin smiled and didn't speak. In fact, Li Zhuzi, a man who often talked about sons over women, was also good to his family Erya.
In winter, I still want to make Erya a new padded jacket, at least not too eccentric to the point of outrageous.
Hongyan Village finally ushered in the New Year of January on the night when the fifth snow came.
Previously, Li Jin had written blessing characters and Spring Festival couplets to the whole village. In previous years, they were written by the village chief, but recently Li Jin has become more and more famous in the town, and the villagers are also willing to take advantage of Master Wenquxing's joy.
Everyone was waiting for Li Jin.
The village chief said with a smile while smoking a cigarette that day: "My old bones can be considered to be able to rest."
Although the village chief said so, Li Jin still asked the village chief to write a word 'Fu' for his family.
As the saying goes, "Blessed" is a good word for people who are highly respected in the village.
And Li Jin wrote two pairs of festive Spring Festival couplets for his family, and the taste of the year is getting more and more full.
On this family-friendly day, Li Jin and Qin Muwen stewed radish and pork ribs soup, made braised pork, fried shredded potatoes, stewed vermicelli with Chinese cabbage, and served with Qin Muwen's small fish-shaped cabbage and pork dumplings, which were very rich.
The two put things on the locker where Li Jin practiced calligraphy before. The ground dragon in the room was burning hot. Li Jin opened a jar of sweet-scented osmanthus brewed by the village chief, poured a glass for the boy, and asked, "Can you drink?"
Qin Muwen shook his head slowly. Originally, the two of them wanted to drink together when they got married, but at that time, no one cared about the etiquette.
Li Jin said, "Then have a drink and try it."
Qin Muwen drank the glass of wine in one gulp like Li Jin, only to be caught by the burning sensation in his throat, he took a long time to recover.
Qin Muwen's face was fair, and when he drank, he went up, his cheeks turned pink, and his eyes were watery.
Li Jin looked at his appearance and forbade him to drink any more, while he drank a jar of wine cup by cup.
In his last life, his alcohol intake was not bad. The original owner often drank before, and his alcohol intake was not bad. In addition, the degree of osmanthus brewing was not high, and Li Jin was still not drunk after drinking a jar.
Just a little drunk.
Li Jin thought that it had been half a year since he came to this world, and he had already felt a sense of belonging. He liked and cared about his wife and children.
And for them, I will do my best to get the fame.
A few days after the first month of January, a notice was posted in the county town, saying that candidates who are going to take the county exam this year can bring their own posters and go to the county government to collect the registration form.
The registration form should fill in personal name, place of origin, age, and family relationship.
There is also a post about guarantors, including four people in the same village and a scholar. Originally, it was stipulated that linsheng, that is, a scholar with salary, but the new emperor directly exempted this item, so Mr. Song is also qualified as a guarantor. .
On the fifth day of the new year, Chen Xiran followed Li Jin on the road to the county seat.
Of course, because of the relationship with the young master Chen, Li Jin also took a ride in the ox cart with the hood.
In the bullock cart, there are two cages side by side. The Li Jin one was built for him by Li Dahe. It is similar to the one sold on the market, with many small blocks.
Li Jin packed his own change of clothes and books. This time, it was his first time to go out for three days.
