Chapter 272 Laba Congee and Angong Niuhuang Pills
In the following days, the lives of the two people gradually became regular.
Every morning, Fu Chenan returned to Tianwu Kingdom to attend court, while Xiao Yingchun handled miscellaneous matters such as procurement, settlement and communication between all parties at Wolong Villa.
In the afternoon, Fu Chenan would bring gifts and visit each great scholar one by one. After the visit, he would come to find Xiao Yingchun.
The two people exchanged and communicated about their respective tasks during the past half day, updated each other, and found out and filled in the gaps.
Usually Fu Chenan asks the questions, and Xiao Yingchun analyzes and answers them.
Then Fu Chenan kept it in mind and gave the order to implement it the next day.
When it gets dark, after the two people have transferred things to each other, they can have dinner.
After dinner, I will confirm the work plan for the next day, take a shower and go to bed...
The small pills for replenishing qi and blood are really good. After taking them for two days, Xiao Yingchun's complexion has improved. He feels energetic and refreshed.
In the past, after exercising with Fu Chenan, Xiao Yingchun would always feel very tired and would basically fall asleep as soon as it was done, and would need Fu Chenan’s help to clean up afterwards.
Now I actually have the energy to wash myself and even talk to him...
That morning, my uncle Xiao Qigui, who came to work, suddenly came over with a thermos bucket of Laba porridge.
"Yingchun, what are your plans for the New Year this year?"
Xiao Yingchun suddenly realized: "Is the New Year coming soon?"
Xiao Qigui handed over the Laba porridge: "It's already Laba, isn't it the New Year?"
Xiao Yingchun was stunned for a moment.
It’s almost Chinese New Year…
She came back to her senses and smiled at Xiao Qigui: "I will spend the New Year with my boyfriend."
During the Tianwu period.
Xiao Qigui had met Fu Chenan before. He was a tall, handsome and imposing boy. It was obvious at first glance that he was not an ordinary person.
After thinking it over, Xiao Qigui asked, "Yingchun, where is this Xiao Fu from?"
"When are you going to get married?"
"What does he do?"
"What does his family do?"
Xiao Yingchun blinked: ...
Xiao Yingchun couldn't answer any of these questions.
Xiao Qigui frowned: "Logically speaking, you have grown up and are capable of making money. As an uncle, I don't have much knowledge or ability, so I shouldn't ask about these things..."
"But your parents are gone, so I am considered your elder..."
"I'm always a little... worried. If you want to tell me, just say it. If it's not convenient, don't say it."
Xiao Qigui smiled somewhat humbly, but Xiao Yingchun felt as if a needle had pricked her heart, causing a sudden pain.
She could feel that her uncle really cared about her.
"Uncle, Fu Chenan and I...are not going to get married for the time being, nor will we hold a wedding banquet." It's really not convenient to do so.
"But he and I might have a baby."
"If I need your help, I'll let you know."
When Xiao Qigui heard this, he obviously thought of it in the wrong way.
I heard that some rich kids have wives at home, but they still keep mistresses outside and let them bear children for them...
In this case, there will naturally be no marriage and no wedding.
When thinking about the huge amount of expenditures Xiao Yingchun made which far exceeded her demolition compensation, Xiao Qigui almost confirmed his guess.
But his niece has come to this point...it's useless for him to persuade her again.
After holding it in for a long time, Xiao Qigui only blurted out one sentence: "If you need uncle, just speak up."
Xiao Yingchun nodded, took the Laba porridge, turned around and sent a message to Ye Yubin, asking him to get her a few boxes of Angong Niuhuang Pills.
When giving gifts to your uncle, don’t give anything too eye-catching. Ginseng and cordyceps are not suitable.
Angong Niuhuang Wan is more suitable. This medicine is more friendly to middle-aged and elderly people. They can take one pill during the Jingzhe, Summer Solstice, Frost Descent, and Winter Solstice solar terms to prevent and treat diseases.
When Ye Yubin heard Xiao Yingchun's call, he was delighted: "Oh, you finally remembered Angong Niuhuang Pills?"
Qing Yu Tang’s Angong Niuhuang Pills have been selling like hot cakes recently.
There is nothing else to it, it’s mainly because the bezoar and musk provided by Xiao Yingchun are of excellent quality, and the Angong Niuhuang Pills made from them are also particularly effective.
Experienced traditional Chinese medicine practitioners recommend their old customers to buy Qing Yu Tang’s Angong Niuhuang Pills.
Fortunately, Qing Yu Tang’s pharmaceutical factory is also very capable and has been able to keep up with production.
Ye Yubin directly gave Xiao Yingchun twenty pills.
The gold-foil-wrapped Angong Niuhuang Pills are sold at a market price of up to one thousand yuan per pill, and are still in short supply.
Ye Yubin reminded earnestly: "Don't tear off the gold foil on the surface when you eat. Eat it with the foil. It has the effect of detoxification, calming nerves and soothing the mind..."
Xiao Yingchun thanked Ye Yubin gratefully and asked about his plans for the New Year.
Ye Yubin showed a rare embarrassed expression on his face.
"During the Chinese New Year, Siqiong's parents may return to China. I have to receive them and arrange for both sets of parents to meet..."
Xiao Yingchun showed a joking look: "Then Uncle Ye must perform well!"
"Uncle Ye is going to give something to his parents-in-law? What can I do?"
When it comes to this, Uncle Ye is just about to find Xiao Yingchun: "Her parents are in the antique business. I also want to ask you, is there anything suitable to give to them?"
Xiao Yingchun smiled and said, "What kind of gift do you want? What's your budget? I'll get it for you."
Ye Yubin thought about it and said, "I want to give a smaller one, suitable for packing in a box and sending it out... The price... should be within one million."
Xiao Yingchun understood: "Give me a rosewood hanging screen."
Objects made of red sandalwood, whether ancient or modern, are not cheap and everyone agrees that it is not difficult to identify them.
Ye Yubin had been spending a lot of time with Tang Siqiong recently, so he understood a little about these things and nodded immediately.
"Then please worry about it."
Xiao Yingchun laughed: "What's that..."
Just find a rosewood hanging screen from the Tianwu Dynasty.
Fu Chenan quickly found a rosewood hanging screen inlaid with gemstones.
The item is not big, but very exquisite, and it meets Ye Yubin's need of "being able to put it in a box as a gift."
Ye Yubin thought it was good at first sight and asked Xiao Yingchun how much it cost.
Xiao Yingchun accepted 100,000 yuan as a token of his appreciation. Ye Yubin didn't know how much it was worth exactly, so he happily took it back.
When Tang Siqiong saw the things, his expression changed.
"You mean, Yingchun only charged you 100,000 yuan for this thing?"
Ye Yubin saw the clue from Tang Siqiong's expression: "Did she sell it to me at a low price?"
Tang Siqiong nodded: "It's more than cheap! It's simply too cheap!"
Such a rosewood hanging screen inlaid with various gemstones would be sold for at least 500,000 RMB in her shop.
If it is put into those auction houses, it would not be difficult to sell it for a million RMB.
If you buy such a good thing at this price from other channels, it can be considered a bargain!
Big bargain!
But this was sold to Ye Yubin by Xiao Yingchun at a friendly price, so Ye Yubin owed him a huge favor.
For a moment, the couple fell silent: it was not appropriate to talk about going back at this time.
Tang Siqiong quickly thought of a solution: "She often provides you with medicinal materials anyway, so you can just give her more later."
Ye Yubin nodded: This is the only way.
When Xiao Yingchun gave Angong Niuhuang Pills to Xiao Qigui the next day, Xiao Qigui didn't know how precious Angong Niuhuang Pills were.
He just looked at the bag in front of him in surprise: "Why are there so many?"
What disease does this medicine treat?
How can I finish all this?
