Lu Lizhi woke up sobbing, his eyelashes wet with tears were a little heavy, and his face was wrinkled and slightly painful, as if he had been rubbed repeatedly.

He clutched his still aching chest in a daze, what happened, why did he feel so uncomfortable?

Lu Lizhi stretched his arms and wanted to get up, but the loose jacket slipped off one shoulder in an instant, revealing a flawless, slender and bony half arm, which made him stiff from shock, and immediately sensed that there were other people in the room, his eyes sharpened immediatelysweep over.

Then I saw the man who shouldn't be here standing quietly in front of the book case, holding a brush and writing seriously, if one ignores the large ink stain he left on the paper just now.

"There are ice powder and fruit on the table. I don't think you have eaten at noon. Eat some to fill your stomach." Jiang Baiye said without raising his head.

Lu Lizhi hastily covered his clothes, his fingers were trembling in shame and anger, what did he do?Why did he undress himself?

And the slightly hot feeling of being rubbed back and forth on the face, what did he do to himself?Why are you crying again?

He hasn't cried like this for a long time, to be exact, he hasn't had such strong emotions since his father died...

Lu Lizhi put on his clothes in a hurry, he was more conservative than before, he didn't even show his neck, covered himself tightly, walked up to Jiang Baiye with his lips pursed, and was about to question him.

Jiang Baiye suddenly crumpled up what he was writing and threw it into the wastebasket, smiling innocently, "It's not well written."

Lu Lizhi's eyes flicked slightly, and it was difficult to say what he wanted to ask him.

Ask him why he took off his clothes, would a normal big man be so awkward?Ask yourself why are you crying?Even he himself didn't know, how could Jiang Baiye know.

"Eat it, it won't taste good after a long time." Jiang Baiye pulled him to sit at the table, "This is a new product I made, try it."

Just as he was talking, Lu Lizhi's stomach gurgled softly, making his face turn red. Not only did he not eat at noon, he also did not eat in the morning and last night.

When you read and forget to eat and sleep, you can forget everything.

"Why don't you know how to love yourself so much?" Jiang Baiye sighed, and immediately scooped up a spoonful of smooth ice powder and handed it to his lips, "I won't come to bring you food for a while, and you don't pay attention to your body."

Lu Lizhi was slightly stunned, seeing his natural expression and movements, neither eating nor not eating, seeing him holding his arms up, he opened his mouth to eat in embarrassment.

The sweetness and smoothness of the entrance are intertwined with a variety of sweet and sour tastes and textures, and it is another delicious snack that he has never eaten.

How much does this person do?He took the spoon and ate it by himself.

"If you don't pay attention to diet and rest, you will fall ill again sooner or later. I managed to make you fat..." At this point, Jiang Baiye remembered the thin and thin shoulders he had glimpsed just now, and suddenly swallowed the following words.

"It seems that every meal will be delivered to you personally in the future. As long as I can cook what you want to eat, no, as long as it is edible, I can figure it out for you!" Jiang Baiye vowed.

Lu Lizhi shook his head in a good mood, he had no idea about what to eat, he only knew that every time what he cooked was to his liking, and it was delicious, that was enough.

At this time, he noticed that Jiang Baiye's body was a little wet, even his hair was dripping with unwiped water. After washing his whole body, he felt more refreshed, but why did he have to take a bath in broad daylight?

"What are you thinking, eat quickly!" Jiang Baiye knocked his head, "Are you stupid for crying?"

Lu Lizhi froze, looked at him slowly, Jiang Baiye also became serious, "Lu Lizhi, do you miss your parents? You suddenly cried so sadly."

Lu Lizhi was a little embarrassed, had he seen them all, but is this the truth?Lu Lizhi nodded hesitantly.

He really misses them every day, especially for his beloved father. He is not afraid of the death of his relatives, but he is afraid that his relatives will pass away unexplainably due to grievances.

"I will be with you from now on, and I won't leave you alone." Jiang Baiye solemnly put his hand on his tightly curled fist.

As for those who have nothing, try to change your mentality and be a brother first, let him leave Lu Lizhi alone and deal with his own personal problems, just think of Lu Lizhi's pitiful face with red nose from crying, Jiang Baiye willcrazy.

Because of this, Jiang Baiye found it interesting to see his dignified and dignified appearance, did he know that he would show that seductive, ahem, heart-wrenching expression?

It's so cute!

Lu Lizhi looked at his hand, moved in his heart, held him instead, dragged him to the table impatiently, picked up the brush and wrote heavily on the paper.

friend.

Jiang Baiye couldn't help curling his lips, he finally did it, was recognized by this person, treated him as a friend, and walked into his heart.

However, he shook his head, directly landed on Lu Lizhi's hand, and drew a big cross on "friend", which made Lu Lizhi's heart tighten, and then held his hand and wrote "brother" next to him like a dog crawling.".

Lu Lizhi is funny, he is still so clumsy and ugly after practicing.

He held it back again, taking control of the sovereignty, and his white and slender knuckles lightly passed through the back of his broad and strong hand.

The coolness mixed with the heat, both of them felt tingling, but neither of them cared about it, immersed in the joy of having another close friend, on a new piece of white paper, wrote "Brother" two strokes.Character.

The pen moves like a dragon, Jiang Baiye feels the strength of his manipulation, and feels the carefree and elegant way of a calligrapher's brush and ink in the air.

However, Lu Lizhi was very dissatisfied. This was the ugliest word he had ever written. One stroke even trembled, which was made by Jiang Baiye rubbing his palm just now.

Jiang Baiye dried the ink on the paper, carefully folded "Brother" and put it on his chest, "I will accept this, and I will take a look at it every day when I wake up before going to bed."

Lu Lizhi didn't know the deep meaning in his words. Seeing that he cherished this friendship, he felt that he hadn't been this happy for a long time.

That night, Jiang Baiye sat cross-legged on the bed with a serious face, took out the "brother" card, and chanted the heart-cleaning mantra to the "brother" just like he did.

Woke up the next day and continued with the "practice".

The effect was good, Jiang Baiye felt that he was about to become a holy monk.

After the workshop is built, there are still many follow-up things, such as training everyone to identify medicinal materials, use processing tools, how to pick, repair, cut, bake, fry, fry, wash, soak, bleach, steam, boil... to what extentOnly qualified and excellent, Jiang Baiye felt that he needed more assistants.

The third son is now leaving with Liu Gong. Even if he is here, he may not be able to help him in this regard. Jiang Baiye plans to find Dr. Sun and the others to see if he can recommend two or three people who know medicine to help him check.

It just so happens that the workshop still lacks the stewards, and the manpower is far from enough. The people in Qingshui Village can only be regarded as small workers at first, and the preparation of medicinal materials needs the guidance of master masters, so as to bring out a group of experienced and skilled masters.Make qualified and satisfactory medicinal materials.

Jiang Baiye really doesn't have the skills. After taking into account the time he spends on cooking every day, he still has to go to the mountains to collect herbs. As for the matter of collecting herbs, he can't do it by himself all the time.Those who are brave enough to take him along will share his work when the time comes.

All in all, it is impossible for Jiang Baiye to want to make money anytime soon, but he plans to finish all of these before the large amount of herbs mature in autumn. When the workshop officially starts, he will definitely make a lot of money!

When Jiang Baiye arrived in the county and made his request, Dr. Sun's eyes lit up immediately, and he pointed outside to a middle-aged man who was harnessing a horse.

"That's there, that's a medicine farmer. He's a good concocter. The money he collects in exchange for the medicine is not enough for his children to go to school. He's looking for a new job..."

Jiang Baiye had strode out and invited him back.

The middle-aged man was tall and thin, dressed plainly but cleanly, he was surprised and looked forward to it: "Doctor Sun, do you need manpower here again?"

Dr. Sun talked about Jiang Baiye's situation, and Ding Yue looked at Jiang Baiye in disbelief, "Opening a workshop? Are you so young?"

His tone was vaguely suspicious. If it wasn't for Dr. Sun's help to speak, he would have thought this young man who was about the same age as his own son was a helper.

But he was really short of money, so he promised to go to Qingshui Village with Jiang Baiye later.

Jiang Baiye also asked about his situation, and found that although this person only knows some rough processing techniques, he knows everything, and has good eyesight. He has many years of experience in selling medicines, and can distinguish the good and bad of many medicinal materials.

If his character is verified to be fine, Jiang Baiye doesn't mind promoting this person to be a master master, teaching him some cooking techniques, and letting him lead other people, he will save himself a lot of worry.

Before returning to the village, Jiang Baiye bought a lot of ingredients from the county that will be used for the banquet in a few days.

Ding Yue waited at the side, watching him fill up the entire carriage in a short time, many of which were good things that they were reluctant to eat during the holidays, and secretly envied him, wondering if what this man said was true or not.

Jiang Baiye sent another invitation to Dr. Sun by the way.

Doctor Sun was just waiting for this sentence, and waved his hand: "Then we must go, Doctor Meng and I have long wanted to go to your place to see how the workshop is doing."

Jiang Baiye had been in touch with them earlier about setting up a workshop to process medicinal materials. Unexpectedly, Dr. Sun and the others not only welcomed them, but also urged them repeatedly.

Because there is no such large-scale pharmaceutical workshop in Changlin County, or even in Xuanhe Prefecture, the main thing is to rely on the medical hall to collect and sell medicines.

The kinds of medicinal materials sold by the scattered medicinal farmers are limited, and the quantity is also very small, and the processing is even less satisfactory.

Therefore, there is a reason why medicinal materials are expensive. If Jiang Baiye's workshop is well managed, the price of medicinal materials will gradually come down. For the common people, it may not be a blessing!

As for the losses of the medical hall, they are all small heads, and both Sun's drugstore and Huichuntang expressed that they don't care.

But that doesn't mean others don't care.

The news of Jiang Baiye's workshop was spread by many people, and it didn't take long before it reached Shanyitang. Before they sent someone to find out what was going on, shopkeeper Tian saw the person he liked running away with Jiang Baiye.

He hurriedly went to Dr. Sun to inquire, "Don't you have no shortage of people? Why did you poach my people away!"

"What do you mean, people who are not satisfied with the monthly money you give, why don't you find another way out for them?" Blame the greed of the Shanyitang, thinking that Ding Yue has no other place to go, so he wants to use the lowest wagesTake people down.

Dr. Sun didn't care about it at all, after all, Ding Yue was really short of money, or else he wouldn't be able to pay Shu Xiu, the son of the family, next month.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Baiye suddenly appeared, hey, it's better to come early than coincidentally!

Shopkeeper Tian ran back angrily. Hu Yaowei had just treated a patient, and the patient left with gratitude. He looked calm, and after hearing what Shopkeeper Tian said, he said indifferently: "This may not be an opportunity."

"What?"

"Isn't Ding Yue short of money and crazy? If he can break into the workshop, he might be able to bring us a lot of news..."

The author has something to say:

Lu Lizhi: Friends.

Jiang Baiye: Brother, yes (strengthening the tone)

later

Lu Lizhi: Not satisfied, that's not the case.

Jiang Baiye: The more depressed, the stronger the rebound.

Don't worry, it will take a process for emotional and psychological changes, as well as turning corners, and it won't be too late. Besides, I like to use the name of friends and brothers, while desperately suppressing, while constantly denying, and at the same time going crazyOne thing I want to get and get close to, and then break through ethics to contaminate...
