Chapter 982: Official Medicinal Materials and Farewell
These words touched the heart of Patriarch Lu, who was very satisfied. He added, "The students always say that when one prospers, all prosper, and when one suffers, all suffer. Today I will tell you something about that... In short, if we all behave ourselves, be honest, and don't act rashly, and follow the Qin family, we will surely be able to live a good life under the guidance of the Qin family."
After saying that, he glanced at his brother-in-law and his wife.
The two of them hurriedly said, "Don't worry, brother-in-law, we will absolutely obey and will never be instigated into doing anything stupid!"
Patriarch Lu: "That's good... It doesn't matter if someone instigated him to do something stupid. We can just break off the relationship."
Mrs. Lu, and the Lu family... Why does the old man/father speak in such a way that it sounds like Mr. Qin's family?
"How did we end up severing ties? Brother-in-law, we've been relatives all our lives. We can't end up severing ties in our old age!" Third Uncle said anxiously. "Brother-in-law, we will definitely take care of ourselves and our families. We will never cause trouble for you or for Old Master Qin. Brother-in-law, we must stay relatives forever!"
Third Aunt: "Yes, yes, brother-in-law, we can't break off our relationship."
Break off the relationship?
Her current reputation is given by her brother-in-law's family and the Qin family. How can she still be decent after the relationship is severed?
"It doesn't matter if you don't have a job and can't come to Taifeng Town to study, as long as we continue to be relatives!" The third aunt added this, she was really afraid of breaking off the relationship.
It’s good to be afraid.
Chief Lu no longer threatened them, but instead explained to them in detail how to be on guard against instigation and tricks.
So that they: "Be careful. If you feel something is wrong, don't respond or act rashly. Send someone to tell us first."
"Hey, brother-in-law, don't worry, we know what's going on." The uncles and aunts responded and listened carefully, so as to avoid being schemed against or instigated by others and losing their two powerful relatives, the Lu and Qin families!
Patriarch Lu was very satisfied with the performance of his three brothers-in-law.
The next day, he not only gave 20% more gifts to his three uncles' homes, but also used the Lu family's mule cart to send his three uncles back to Zhangjiaji.
This greatly brought honor to the three nephews' families. When the head of Zhangjiaji Village, Zhang, heard that they had returned in glory, he came to greet them in person.
……
After Qin Ying's marriage, the training of the Qin family's medicinal materials workshop was completely completed and they officially began to prepare medicinal materials.
But before officially starting to use medicinal materials, some things must be made clear.
"The female workers were all responsible for processing non-toxic and harmless medicinal materials, such as Bupleurum, licorice, Rehmannia, Eucommia, etc."
"Generally, male workers also process these non-toxic and harmless medicinal materials, but they also process some medicinal materials that are slightly toxic but harmless to the human body, such as Euphorbia kansui, Asarum sieboldii, Arisaema heterophyllum, Cyperus rotundus, Arisaema heterophyllum, Strychnos nux-vomica, and Pinellia ternata."
"Male workers over 40 who don't need to have children are required to prepare some risky medicinal herbs that may affect fertility!"
"The workers who prepare these risky medicinal materials will receive a monthly subsidy of 500 wen, which is 1 tael and 4 qian of silver per month."
"Everyone can rest assured that these herbs will only have a slight impact on fertility and will not cause poisoning, death or disability."
"The herbal medicine shop has submitted the list of these risky herbs to the government office. The government office has sent doctors to confirm that these herbs will not cause death or disability, so everyone can rest assured." Qin Xiaomi shouted.
Today, the Qin family's medicinal materials workshop also invited people from the second gate of the government army, the workers' village heads, and important family members.
"If your family is worried or afraid and doesn't want to be asked, bring it up now. If they have no objection, then sign a risk information form and officially start working in the pharmaceutical industry."
During the training days, Dr. You had already told the workers that some medicinal materials were risky.
The workers were also asked to go home and tell their families.
Those who were unwilling have already registered. All the workers in the 40-year-old poison processing team now have the consent of themselves and their families.
Old Man Chai shouted, "I'm willing to do it, and my family has no objection!"
Old Man Chai from Guicun also came to work at the Qin family's herbal medicine workshop. He came here just to help the Qin family prepare risky herbs.
His family lived a good life because of the Qin family's workshop, so he had only one idea, to work for the Qin family. Now that he had the opportunity, he certainly couldn't let it go.
Doctor Kang from the county government office produced a document. "This is the 'List of Risky Medicinal Materials' submitted by the Qin family. The government has confirmed that these herbs will not cause death or disability, but will affect fertility, such as increasing the risk of miscarriage. That's why female workers are not allowed to prepare these herbs. Only male workers over 40 years old who have no reproductive needs are selected to prepare these herbs!"
Old Lady Liu Jiu from Liuma Village asked, "That's not right. Last winter, the Ma brothers from our village sold Aconitum. That medicinal herb is very poisonous. The Qin family also bought it, and they bought a lot of it. Don't they process Aconitum?"
Qin Xiaomi said, "Of course they can prepare it. But to avoid disputes, these kinds of poisonous materials will not be prepared by skilled workers. They will be prepared by female doctors from the palace."
They often came into contact with such poisonous materials when they were in the palace, and it was a death contract, so even if something happened, there would not be any major disputes.
So in order to save trouble, Qin Xiaomi handed over the preparation of highly toxic herbs such as aconite to the female doctors.
"Regarding the toxins in Aconitum, I'm sharing a free detoxification method with everyone today. Aconitum poison comes from aconitine, which can be fatal in severe cases. The initial symptoms of poisoning are numbness in the mouth and dizziness. So if you experience these symptoms while harvesting Aconitum, you can immediately drink half a bowl of honey to detoxify it."
"But if you already have a severe headache, you must seek medical treatment immediately."
Aconite is highly toxic, but its fibrous roots can be processed into Aconitum carmichaelii. This Aconitum carmichaelii is different from the Aconitum carmichaelii made from Arisaema heterophyllum. This Aconitum carmichaelii is very powerful; it has the effect of restoring yang and reversing collapse.
It’s the adrenaline of ancient times.
Even though Aconitum is highly poisonous, she still wants to collect it and make it into medicinal herbs.
"Oh my god, drinking honey can detoxify Aconitum?!" Old Lady Liu Jiu was shocked, but then she was delighted: "Okay, okay, then I dare to go dig Aconitum and sell it. Aconitum is a valuable commodity."
Because Aconitum is very poisonous, she didn't dare to dig it up and sell it when she saw it, so that the Ma brothers would get a free piece of it. This year, she would not give it to them, she would dig it up and sell it herself!
Qin Xiaomi glanced at her and continued shouting, "You have to drink pure honey. Diluting it with too much water won't work. You can't use hot water to mix honey. Besides, my family can't guarantee that this detoxification method will definitely work. So if something still goes wrong after using this method, you'll be responsible for it!"
The purpose of revealing this antidote method is to help the villagers who harvest aconite, so that they don't die from poisoning, not to give scoundrels an opportunity to extort money from her family.
"Tsk, Mr. Qin, there's no need for you to say that!" Old lady Liu Jiu sighed. No matter what you say, now that you've said it, I won't be able to scam you.
On behalf of the yamen, Master Han said, "Master Qin's words have been recorded by the county clerk. This is the evidence that the Qin family is exempt from liability. So if anyone gets poisoned while harvesting medicinal herbs, they should take responsibility themselves and not try to frame others!"
The village heads said, "Master Han is right. The Qin family has done us a great favor by giving us this source of wealth. If anyone dares to act unreasonably, we will not forgive him!"
Dangdang Dangdang!
Uncle Qin banged the gong and shouted, "Let's get down to business. Male workers over 40 years old who are willing to prepare risky medicinal materials, and their families, please sign and stamp the 'Information Form on the Risks of Preparing Medicinal Materials' here."
"Here I am! Old Man Qian from Ghost Village will be the first to sign!" Old Man Qian was the first to rush forward, sign his name, and press his fingerprint on the document.
Old Man Chai was furious. That cunning Old Man Qian always spoke up only after the village chief's family had settled things. The village chief's family shouldn't have been so kind to him!
There were only forty workers in the risky medicinal materials team, and they signed in quickly.
Dangdang Dangdang!
"Okay, everyone go back to the workshop and start preparing the medicinal materials!" Uncle Qin shouted.
The workers followed the foreman back to their workshops to start the stoves and process the medicinal herbs.
