Longevity starts with learning

Located at the source of Qinghe River, which passes through eight counties and spans two prefectures.

Jingmen is naturally extremely prosperous.

This prosperity can be clearly seen from the port.

When we arrived at Jingmen, it was still early in the morning, and the sky was not even completely bright yet. The port was brightly lit and there was already a hustle and bustle.

Chu Mu was still sleeping, but he was also awakened by the hustle and bustle.

Standing at the bow, in addition to the endless lake in the dimness, there was the brightly lit port not far away.

Traveling merchants, porters, soldiers maintaining order...

Shouts, collisions, waves...

The hustle and bustle are all in front of us.

Looking away, behind the port, there are long roofs, just like the dim lake, there is no end in sight.

"Go and prepare, take out the pass and the household registration book."

"Remember, don't tell outsiders that we are from Nanshan Town, everything is as I prepared."

Chu Mu spoke slowly. His preparations were not only the black boat in front of him, but also not only preparing his belongings in advance, including the household registration book, the pass, and even the merchant certificate. He used his previous inspection authority to prepare them neatly.

Now, although he is still named Chu and Mu, according to his preparations, he is not from Qinghe County, but from Changning County next to Qinghe County. He is a medical family. He came to Jingmen County to travel and stay for a while.

Of course, this is the fact.

Chu Mu obviously does not plan to stay in Jingmen County for too long.

With the current progress of Qi and Blood cultivation, it is estimated that it will take only a year and a half for Qi and Blood cultivation to reach perfection.

When the gods appear, he will definitely leave Jingmen County to pursue the existence of the Xiuxian world.

Jingmen is just a transitional place after all.

As soon as the ship docked, an inspector came on board to inspect. He had been in the inspection system for several months, so Chu Mu was naturally aware of some of the tricks and rules.

He stuffed some money into the inspector and sent him off. He also asked about the situation in Jingmen.

He hired a few porters to move all the books and medicinal materials on the ship, and then headed for Jingmen County.

In a place where merchants and travelers gather, inns are everywhere, which is naturally indispensable.

He found an inn to stay in at random, and the rest was to settle down.

The two of them didn't have much money on them. In a month, they sold everything that could be sold. Counting the monthly salary of the two people and two black golds, their total belongings were only more than 300 silver.

But this is not much, only relatively speaking.

If Chu Mu spent it lavishly, it would obviously not be much.

But if it was consumed by ordinary people, this was not much, and it could be regarded as a huge sum of money.

Chu Mu's plan was very simple. In Jingmen, he rented a shop and opened a pharmacy.

Practice martial arts, study, practice medicine, and make some money to avoid eating up all the money.

After settling in the inn, the morning sun had risen. Chu Mu walked out of the inn alone and wandered around the unfamiliar Jingmen County.

In comparison, the Qinghe County in the original owner's memory and the Jingmen County in front of him were not at the same level at all.

There were people coming and going on the street, vendors, carriages, merchants, porters...

The street, which was about three or four feet wide, was actually a bit crowded.

Chu Mu mixed in the crowd, walking slowly, and observing slowly at the same time.

Perhaps Nanshan Town left a deep impression on him, and his observation was also extremely meticulous.

As early as half a month ago, he listed several places suitable for him to live temporarily. The reason why he finally chose Jingmen County was also very simple.

First, there are no mines being mined in the territory. Second, Jingmen is located at the end of Qinghe River, in the East Lake area, with prosperous business and a large number of foreign population.

But what he learned on paper is a bit empty after all. Chu Mu always feels scared without seeing it with his own eyes.

He doesn't want to fall into a tiger's pit just after getting out of the wolf's den. If Jingmen County doesn't meet his expectations, he would rather run around again and never stay here.

Chu Mu has been wandering around Jingmen County for a whole day. He even took a carriage to visit several surrounding villages and towns, and got a general understanding of the real situation of Jingmen County.

It is not much different from the description in the book. Jingmen has a strong business atmosphere. In Jingmen County, you can hear various accents, which undoubtedly confirms the fact that there are many foreign populations.

The county magistrate and county lieutenant of Jingmen County are not surnamed Li, but surnamed Zhao. This is undoubtedly very important. At least it proves that Jingmen County is not the sphere of influence of the Nanshan Li family.

Even if there is a Jingmen Zhao family or something like that, he is not a member of the Jingmen system and has nothing to do with him.

Having made up his mind, Chu Mu did not delay. He acted vigorously and quickly found a shop facing the street and rented it for thirty silver coins.

The shop was not on the most prosperous main street in Jingmen County, but on another street parallel to the main street. The street name was Changling, and the traffic volume was obviously much less than that of the main street.

But this shop was rented out together with the backyard, and the rent was much cheaper than that of the main street.

The purpose itself was not to make much money, so Chu Mu naturally did not need to worry about it.

After deciding, he directly found a few people to clean up the shop, and moved it from the inn early the next morning.

"Baicao Pavilion..."

In the morning, Chu Mu personally hung up the customized plaque. Xu Yuan looked up under the eaves of the door, with a curious face: "Brother Mu, why is it called Baicao Pavilion?"

"Baicao Zhiyao..."

Chu Mu murmured softly without giving a clear answer. He got down from the ladder and said with a smile: "From now on, you will be the shopkeeper of Baicao Pavilion."

"I?"

Xu Yuan was a little confused: "I am the shopkeeper, Brother Mu, what are you doing?"

"I just see a doctor and read a book. You have to take care of the pharmacy."

Seeing Chu Mu acting like a shopkeeper again, Xu Yuan was used to it, and besides, the shopkeeper...

Xu Yuan was full of novelty, and he sat in front of the counter in a presentable manner. The posture he held up made Chu Mu couldn't help laughing.

"Brother Mu, do you think we should also do business as martial arts practitioners?"

"The efficacy of Dragon Snake Decoction is so good. Brother Mu, if you research one or two more prescriptions and come up with it, then our Baicao Pavilion's business will not be able to take off..."

"We only do business for ordinary people. Dragon Snake Soup is too conspicuous. We are new here, so we should keep a low profile."

Chu Mu shook his head and rejected Xu Yuan's proposal. In this Jingmen, he just wanted to practice martial arts and study quietly, be more leisurely and comfortable.

But once you get involved with Jingmen's martial arts practitioners, you will inevitably come into contact with the deeper existence of Jingmen. Once you come into contact, it will be easy to get involved.

The gain outweighs the loss...
