Chapter 2 "Identification Atlas of Basic Medicinal Materials"! 【Favorites】
After half an hour
The 30 teenagers who washed off their filth and dust and put on gray linen clothes.
respectfully lined up in three rows in the backyard of Chen's Pharmacy.
There is also a middle-aged man next to the steward in Tsing Yi.
He was wearing a long black coat, with a refined and steady look, and a sharp and scrutinizing look in his eyes.
"Why are you all standing still?" The manager in Tsing Yi yelled at everyone: "This is Dr. Pu Xingxian, the shopkeeper of our pharmacy. He is a famous doctor in Qingshan County. Why don't you hurry up and say hello?"
"The shopkeeper is good!"
"Hello, Doctor Pu!"
The teenagers greeted in disorder.
Pu Xingxian didn't care too much, nodded and said kindly: "Our pharmacy doesn't have too many rules. The handyman apprentices get up every day, doing chores and cleaning, drying medicinal materials, serving tea and pouring water during the day. In the evening, they practice martial arts and exercise. I have to find time to recite the Pharmacopoeia."
"There is a three-month assessment period for new recruits. At that time, you will be assigned to different places according to your performance. You will either work as a guard in the guard team, or go to an outside village to collect medicinal materials, or go to the front hall as a doctor's apprentice."
"In short, your fate is all in your own hands. If you want to turn around and live a good life, you'd better work harder."
Some passionate encouragement
The longing for the future in the eyes of the teenagers became stronger again.
Pu Xingxian nodded in satisfaction, and was not interested in saying anything more.
This is just a routine lecture for new handymen to get started.
After recognizing a familiar face, Pu Xingxian turned around and left, leaving a sentence: "Since you just arrived, today's work will be less arranged, Xu Si, take them to arrange accommodation first, and then go to eat."
"yes!"
The Tsing Yi steward respectfully agreed.
Quickly arranged accommodation for everyone.
The 30 teenagers were directly divided into 3 Datong shops.
There are 10 people living in a room, and each person has only a small place to stand.
The light in the room is dim, and the air is filled with all kinds of musty and sour smells. The accommodation environment can be described as quite bad.
Immediately after that is eating!
There is a cafeteria in the pharmacy, but it is only a place where doctors can go.
Ordinary guards and handymen can only squat by the kitchen to eat.
Buckets of broth, meat pies, coarse grain buns, and hand-rolled noodles are placed directly on the ground.
Coupled with a few plates of hot and sour side dishes, it also whetted the appetite of the teenagers.
Eating this simple food in one bite, the satisfaction in his stomach made Wei Han feel much better.
After two months of starvation, I finally had a full meal. It was not easy!
"The treatment in Chen's pharmacy is good, I can finally have enough to eat, woo woo woo, it's a pity that my parents died early!"
"Don't cry, watch out for Manager Xu to drive you out."
"That's right, don't make a sad face. We are here to work as handymen. If we offend the rules, we will be driven away easily."
The teenagers discussed cautiously.
One of the black and thin boys pushed Wei Han, and asked in a low voice, "Is your name Wei Han? My name is Wang Tiezhu, and I'm also from Tu County. My family is in Tieniu Village."
"My name is Cui Bin, and I'm also from Tu County."
Another handsome young man came over.
In this unfamiliar place, fellow villagers are always close by nature.
Looking around again, there are still many such small groups.
As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Although the young people are not deep in the world, they have learned a lot about how to behave in the adult world.
"Mr. Pu said that we have a three-month assessment period, and we will be assigned to various places after that. I wonder what the difference is?" Wang Tiezhu said with a sad face.
Cui Bin said in a low voice: "I know this. My father already inquired about it yesterday. The Chen's pharmacy is backed by the Chen family, a wealthy family in Qingshan County. Their status and background are quite good. They handle countless patients and medicinal materials every day. Therefore, a large number of guards, handymen, and apprentices are required."
"In the first three months, we will be arranged to practice martial arts and identify medicinal materials. After the assessment period is over, those who have excelled in martial arts will be assigned to the **** team. They usually guard pharmacies and medicine gardens outside the city, or **** medicinal materials. There is a minimum monthly fee. 2 taels of silver."
"2 taels?"
Wang Tiezhu swallowed in surprise.
Wei Han also became interested and motioned Cui Bin to continue talking.
"2 taels is low. It is said that veteran guards start at 5 taels. They do hard work, so they will earn a lot." Cui Bin continued enviously: "Of course, go to the towns outside to collect medicinal materials. It’s also good, it’s said that there’s a lot of oil and water, but it’s a bit hard and tiring, you have to run around every day, and you’re more likely to encounter horse bandits.”
"And the best assignment is to work as an apprentice doctor in the front office. You can learn skills from the doctors. It seems that the status is not high, and you can be a doctor in the future."
"You don't have to work as hard as a guard, and you earn a lot. After you become a doctor, your status is higher than others. The big families in the county are polite when you meet them."
Wei Han immediately became happy when he heard it.
Isn't this the most suitable career for him?
There is no danger and a lot of money. Holding a craft is better than anything else.
Of course, martial arts is also indispensable.
These years, disasters and bandits are everywhere, and weirdness is rampant.
If you don't have the ability to stand by yourself, you may be in bad luck even if you are an immortal.
"Guan Xu said we can practice martial arts, right?" Wei Han asked, "I don't know what we will learn."
Speaking of martial arts, Wang Tiezhu and Cui Bin also became interested.
After all, they are all young men, and there is nothing more attractive to everyone than dancing with knives and guns.
Cui Bin thought for a while and smiled: "I haven't inquired about this, but the pharmacy is backed by the Chen family, and the martial arts used to train the guards are naturally not too bad. It is better than the bad street skills outside, and we have no Yinzi went to the martial arts hall to practice martial arts, didn't he?"
"That's right!" Wang Tiezhu said with a silly smile: "It's better to join the pharmacy, and martial arts are free."
While talking, Manager Xu walked into the cafeteria again!
Two servants followed behind, holding thick books in their hands.
"Send it, and you all will remember this identification map of medicinal materials for me in the next three months!" Manager Xu said loudly, "I advise you to take it with you when you eat, sleep, or go to the latrine, because it will be the key to the assessment after three months. have you understood?"
"Huh? So thick?"
"My mother, where are more than a thousand medicinal materials?"
"Who remembers so many?"
The teenagers took a look at the atlas, and all their scalps became numb!
This thick atlas is densely packed, recording the habits and patterns of a large number of medicinal materials. There are more than a thousand kinds of them, and the information is as high as hundreds of thousands of words.
It is really difficult to memorize them within three months.
You must know that teenagers have to do odd jobs during the day and practice martial arts at night.
Usually, I’m afraid that I really can only squeeze time out of eating and sleeping to memorize by rote, so that I can hope to pass the examination.
But Wei Han didn't panic at all. While chewing the meatloaf slowly, he flipped through the atlas casually.
After a short incense stick, there was an extra line of words on his attribute board - "Basic Medicinal Material Identification Atlas" was successfully included, please choose whether to hang up or not.
