Practicing business and practicing medicine

The best wild medicinal materials often grow in inaccessible places such as deep lakes, deep seas, deep ditches, dense forests, cliffs, etc. The reason is simple. The places with easy access have long been harvested by medicinal farmers.

There are many cypresses, vines, thorns... and other plants growing on the cliff. The old man is very experienced in climbing mountains and ridges. The safety rope and safety belt are fastened in the right place. Maybe he was careless. They were entangled together. During the process of sorting them out, the entanglement problem was not solved. The soles of my feet slipped and my whole body was suddenly suspended in mid-air.

Anyone hit with this kind of thing would be flustered and confused, and the old man would be a little confused.

If Bian Mu hadn't reached out to save him in time, the cold and hungry would have killed half of his life even if the old man hadn't fallen to the bottom of the cliff in the wild mountains and the poor cell phone signal.

Both of them had practiced kung fu. The old man pulled a few times on it, and Bian Mu came up smoothly.

"It's all my fault! Greed and I have given up everything. In this kind of terrain, it's really impossible not to find a helper to help you, little brother! I will never forget the grace of saving my life!" As he spoke, the old man clasped his hands in his fists. He held it on his chest and bowed solemnly to Bian Mu.

"Ouch! You are an elder, you can do it with just a little effort. You are welcome, you are welcome! I am also a regular customer here. Speaking of which, we are all outsiders." As he spoke, Bian Mu quickly clasped his fists and returned a salute. In order to show respect for the elders, Bian Mu even bowed specially.

Seeing Bian Mu being so polite, the old man's face suddenly burst into an appreciative smile, and he also bowed to Bian Mu and returned the salute.

"Senior! I guess you are a little exhausted right now. Why don't we sit down for a while and I'll take you down the mountain!"

"I'm fine! I was careless just now, just take a rest!" As he spoke, the old man took Bian Mu to the place where he set up camp.

Bian Mu then discovered that the old man had set up a small tent nearby. There was a big yellow dog lying next to the tent to look after the house. His eyes were very bright. When he saw his owner coming back, the big dog immediately got up and trotted all the way to greet him. , shaking his head and tail, looking very affectionate.

"'God of Wealth'! Let me introduce you to a friend, yo! I forgot to ask, what is your surname?"

"It's free! My surname is Bian, which means 'Bian' from 'Bian fortress'. Why did you give it such a nice name? Hahaha...'God of Wealth'! Hello!" As he spoke, Bian Mu waved at the big yellow dog. Wave.

The big yellow dog was very smart. He glanced at Bian Mu in a friendly way, nodded and wagged his tail, which seemed to confirm that Bian Mu was one of his own.

"Alas! Our children are useless and life is tight. We have to subsidize them from time to time. If it wasn't winter, all the flowers have faded! Not to mention that we can't make money, we still have to spend money to buy honey to feed those babies. Look at it today The weather was nice, so I wanted to try my luck up the mountain, but I almost fell to death!"

"You are a beekeeper! Disrespect, disrespect!"

"Hi! You're so polite! I was born to suffer! If you don't mind, come and sit at our house later."

"You live on this mountain?"

"Yes, we just wander around this mountain all year round. Sometimes, when the flower mood is good, we also go out for a walk. If we travel all over the country, we can follow Hua Xinzi!"

"I think beekeeping is quite interesting, how romantic!" Bian Mu responded with a smile.

"Oh! You will understand after working for half a year, and it is still romantic! It will be good if you can have a full meal."

"So collecting herbs is your side job?"

"Absolutely! If you don't have this business to support you, you won't be able to survive at all. I just saw that you are quite agile. Have you practiced?"

"It's not like you've practiced. I learned a few tricks from my grandpa when I was a kid. You're not weak at all!"

"Oh! I can't talk about my skills. I have been studying with my father for a few years. I am 73! My legs and feet are stiff. The old saying is absolutely true. People do not use their muscles and bones as their strength. I have to pay attention to it from now on. I can't No matter how adventurous you are, you are not like a herbal collector, you are gentle and gentle, in which profession can you make a fortune?" The old man asked with a smile.

"I study Chinese medicine and work in our county hospital. I have a day off today and try my luck at magnetism."

"No wonder! The temperament looks unusual. Then...can we discuss something?"

"You say!"

"There were a few large Ganoderma lucidum growing where we met just now. They are of quite good quality. You can help me take care of them later, and I'll go down and pick them! How about we share them equally?"

"As long as I'm here, there's no need for you to get started. I won't share it with you. I'll just assume that we are destined. I'll pick it up for you and we'll get married. You can just take care of it for me up there."

"That's so embarrassing!"

"You saw it first. According to the rules, Ganoderma lucidum is yours. It's just a piece of cake. Don't take it to heart."

"It's better for each person to have half of it! Otherwise... I will feel uneasy, otherwise... let it grow there!"

"Then let's do this! After harvesting Ganoderma lucidum, do you plan to use it yourself? Or sell it?"

"Change money!"

"What price do you think it can be sold for?"

"That's Purple Ganoderma. One of the biggest ones might be of the 'Xiangyun' grade! Add one piece to it, it weighs more than two kilograms at least. Even if it's ordinary purple Ganoderma, if one thousand is calculated as 3,500, it's still worth six to seven thousand , if it's the 'Xiangyun' level... that would be tens of thousands, and if two people make five, each person can share about 5,000."

"It's better than this. You take the best ones. You can give me three percent of the smallest ordinary Ganoderma lucidum. I have a patient with a deep wound on his foot. I'll get some Ganoderma lucidum and give him some medicine. I hope it can help. Help him get through it, and if everything goes as expected, he will be cured within three months at most, and there should be no sequelae."

"Oh! Open up the 'Ren and Du's Second Meridian'? That patient's Kungfu is not weak! What you learned is not ordinary Chuanwu Kungfu! The 'Martial Arts' doctors have been in the same family since ancient times. Judging from the tone, your medical skills are quite impressive! Disrespectful, disrespectful!”

"Don't dare to take it, don't take it! That patient has a strong character and does have some skills."

"To be honest, you are a doctor. If I hadn't been a little tight on money, I should have given you all the Ganoderma lucidum under the cliff. I dare not repay you for saving your life. That's my whole heart. Let's share it equally!

"Then...I feel ashamed."

"The days are long. From now on, we should be as close as possible. I'm almost done with rest. Let's go now!"

"Okay!" Bian Mu agreed and walked towards the cliff with the beekeeper.

…

The beekeeper built a small courtyard halfway up the mountain. It was a single-family house with a brick and wood structure. It was warm in winter and cool in summer. It was a pretty pastoral residence. The old couple used it as a base to run the honey business, which they had done for decades. , the small courtyard has long been taken care of by the old couple and is filled with a strong smell of fireworks.

The large and small Ganoderma lucidum picked by Bian Mu totaled more than three kilograms, half for one person. Bian Mu gained quite a lot from this trip.

The old lady was naturally overjoyed to receive the "Xiangyun" grade Ganoderma lucidum. She took out the best wild mountain tea at home and prepared a pot of "Qibao Tea" to entertain Bian Mu.

There was some mutton left in the kitchen, so the old lady went to the kitchen to knead noodles, mix stuffing, and prepare dumplings for lunch, while the beekeeper went to the cellar to collect good fruits to prepare for Bian Mu.

Seeing a small row of old books on the desk, Bian Mu walked over and took a few glances.

"Thirteen Essays on the Book of Changes", "Six Yao Questions", "Historical Records"... Judging from the titles of the books, it seems that the old couple have quite studied the science of divination.

"Hey! There is also a calculation chip here! It seems that the old couple are not ordinary craftsmen!" Thinking of this, Bian Mu picked up a calculation chip and took a closer look.

It is made of pure iron, smooth and bright. Bian Mu guessed that this thing must have been made by a skilled craftsman using high-quality iron. It would only be like this when it is suitable. The shape is like a hexagonal prism, and it is quite heavy on the hand. Each prism There are different symbols and words carved on the surface, and it doesn't look like an ordinary divination object.
