Chapter 208 Hallucinogenic Powder
Han Chun was still waiting for the Crown Princess to assign him an important task. When he heard that he was asked to buy a stone pestle and stone trough for pounding medicine, he was stunned.
"Stone pestle and stone trough? What's so important about this?"
I thought the Crown Princess wanted to give me some important task, but it turned out to be shopping.
"Of course it's important!" Shen Yiyi looked serious.
"I can't trust anyone except you in this matter."
"Really?" Han Chun's eyes lit up and he became energetic again.
Although I don't think buying the stone pestle and stone trough is a big deal, but since the Crown Princess said so, it seems that she still values me very much.
"Of course it's true, because you buy things the cheapest." Shen Yiyi said very seriously.
When it comes to buying things, she trusts Han Chun. No matter how expensive the item is, she can buy it for you at a very cheap price.
She has tested this herself, and no one else has this ability, so people still trust her.
“……………………”Han Chun.
It turned out that the Crown Princess trusted him so much because he bought things cheaply, not because of the kind of respect he thought.
Seeing that this guy looked uninterested, Jiang Zuo grinned and patted his shoulder.
"What our eldest lady said is true. You buy things cheaper than anyone else. You are the only one who can do this."
After saying that, he couldn't help but grin again, which made Han Chun so angry that she glared at him fiercely again.
Shen Yiyi did not notice their eye contact, as she was calculating in her mind how many stone pestles and stone troughs to buy.
He looked at the guards who were busy rinsing the herbs in water, and extended a hand towards Han Chun.
"You can buy 500 first, that should be enough."
There are two people in a group, a total of one thousand people, so buying five hundred should be enough.
As if he remembered something, he quickly ran back to his tent. When he came back, he had a ten-liang gold ingot in his hand.
"Take this money. If it's not enough, come back and get more. Oh, and I want the largest size."
He stuffed ten taels of gold ingot into Han Chun's hand. Although he said so, he felt in his heart that it should be enough.
After all, the stone pestle and stone trough are not expensive things. The most important thing is that Han Chun has always been cheap when buying things. Ten taels of gold is equivalent to one hundred taels of silver.
With his ability, buying five hundred stone pestles and stone troughs should be enough. Looking at the ten taels of gold ingots stuffed into him by the Crown Princess, Han Chun reluctantly pulled the corner of his mouth.
"Okay." Then he looked at his master.
It seems I have to ask the master for more money. The Crown Princess wants five hundred of them at once, and they want the largest ones. How can these ten taels of gold be enough for them?
“……………………”Shang Zhanchen didn’t say anything, but his lips were raised, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
I have to say that Han Chun is quite quick in getting things done. The next morning, Shen Yiyi had just finished breakfast.
Then he heard a noisy noise outside. When he went outside, he saw Jiang Zuo coming back with several carriages.
After seeing that the carriage was carrying stone pestles and stone troughs, he immediately grinned with joy.
"Han Chun, you are so awesome! You bought it so quickly!" She looked at Han Chun with approval.
I thought it would be good enough if he could buy it back today, but I didn't expect him to buy it back so early in the morning. This is extremely fast.
"By the way, how much did it cost in total?" She patted the stone pestle and trough on the carriage.
They are all the largest size and the quality looks good. I feel like they can’t be cheap.
"Um... Miss Shen, this stone pestle and stone trough are made of the best material, but we bought a lot.
The boss still gave quite a few discounts, but it still cost me ten taels of gold."
"Oh, it's a little expensive, but the material is really good. It doesn't matter if it's a little more expensive." Shen Yiyi patted the stone pestle and stone trough on the carriage.
I thought I could get some money back with the ten taels of gold, but I ended up spending it all. However, the material looks really good.
It's worth spending a little more.
“……………………”Han Chun’s mouth twitched.
The Crown Princess really didn't understand the market situation. She thought ten taels of gold was too much. He actually spent several tens of taels.
Shen Yiyi looked at the things in the car, hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Doctor Zhang again.
"Doctor Zhang, let's not go into the mountains to collect herbs today. Let's make the hallucinogenic powder first and let everyone unload these things.
Clean it up and we'll start grinding the powder in a moment."
Since all the medicine pounding tools and herbs are ready, we won’t go into the mountains to collect herbs today. Let’s make the hallucinogenic powder first.
After the medicine powder is prepared, go to the mountains to catch poisonous insects.
"Oh, okay." Doctor Zhang agreed and couldn't wait to tell people to work.
He is now looking forward to making the hallucinogenic powder more than anyone else. He hopes to make it as soon as possible so that he can go to the mountains to catch poisonous insects and prepare antidote powder.
Soon, Doctor Zhang called everyone over and gave each person a set of stone pestles and stone troughs, and cleaned them according to Shen Yiyi's request.
After explaining how to grind the medicinal powder, everyone started to work.
Shen Yiyi personally supervised the production of those rare and special medicinal materials. Looking at her serious guidance, Shang Zhanchen curled the corners of his mouth in amusement.
"……………………"
His wife is only attentive when it comes to preparing medicinal herbs, and she probably doesn't have time to take care of herself.
After saying hello, he went to the conference tent with General Wei to discuss the follow-up matters.
When Shen Yiyi saw the medicinal herbs, she was like a mosquito seeing blood. She had long forgotten about the man and gave instructions here and there.
My mind and eyes are filled with medicinal materials, especially when I see more and more medicinal powder being ground, I feel indescribably happy.
Shang Zhanchen was also in a good mood. He sat in the meeting tent and discussed the purchase of sweet potatoes with General Wei and others.
While looking at Shen Yiyi who was busy outside, he felt very happy.
As if he remembered something, he looked up at Jiang You again.
"How's it going over at White Tiger Mountain?"
It has been some time since the White Tiger Mountain was wiped out. Logically, the capital should have received the news. I wonder if there has been any action.
"My lord, that man has sent three groups of people, but they all returned empty-handed." Jiang Zuo looked very proud.
Whenever he mentioned this, he couldn't hide his pride. His Crown Princess was really powerful. She dealt with hundreds of people quietly.
And there was no trace at all. The second prince sent several groups of people over, but they couldn't find any information at all.
He probably had a bad temper in the palace at this moment, and the fact was just as he expected.
Ever since he learned that Baihu Mountain was wiped out, Shang Zhanfei has been furious.
"Investigate, you must get to the bottom of this!" Shang Zhanfei threw the cup again in anger.
He just didn't believe that hundreds of people could just disappear without leaving any trace.
When he thought of the silver he had deposited in Baihu Mountain, he became even more angry. He was worried that he would find out who had done it.
I will definitely wipe out his entire family.
