Chapter 120: The Medicine Is Complete
Recalling the steps in her mind, Yiyi effortlessly started making the medicine pills.
Right from the start, she added the green little berries into the mixed ingredients. She wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but this time the pill-making process went incredibly smoothly, even saving quite a bit of time.
When Yiyi looked at the five Jade Fragrance Pills in her hand, she could hardly believe it.
You must know that the rare ingredients Mo Ping collected were only enough for three Jade Fragrance Pills, so it was a surprise to end up with five in the end.
Taking advantage of the current good hand feeling, after storing away the Jade Fragrance Pills, Yiyi began to make the Rongzhi Pills.
The Rongzhi Pill was made by Yiyi using the Lingzhi from her space and other ingredients. Now, making this pill, she also added the little berries, resulting in a pill with a strong medicinal fragrance that refreshed the mind.
Since she was in good form today and the preparation time was short, Yiyi planned to continue making the whitening pills and Height Increasing Pills. This time, she also included the little berries, and just by looking at the richness of the fragrance, she knew that the pills made today would be more effective than usual.
Looking at the medicine pills in her hand, Yiyi smiled broadly, and after leaving the pharmacy room, she went straight to find Mo Ping and Guo Ming.
"Mo Ping, here are the whitening pills and Height Increasing Pills. However, starting today, the prices for these two types of pills need to go up a bit because I’ve added a secret ingredient that makes them more effective than before."
Upon hearing this, Mo Ping was a bit surprised and then just delighted.
"That’s great. The pills we have here were already quite effective. If they’re even better now, they will surely be popular. However... how much are we going to sell them for each?" He originally thought they were quite expensive, and now being even more so, surely some people wouldn’t be able to accept it.
Yiyi thought for a moment and said, "Let’s sell them for ten dollars each."
"What... isn’t that too expensive."
Even though Mo Ping had gotten used to the prices of the pills, hearing Yiyi’s sudden words was still a bit hard to accept, considering ten dollars was equivalent to half a month’s salary for a worker. Who would spend that much on a single pill?
"It might be a bit pricey, but our pills have a good effect and are worth the price."
Yiyi had already thought it through. Wuming Pharmacy would follow the high-end route in the future, so the price couldn’t be low, and considering the current effect of a single whitening pill is so good, just eating about ten pills would be enough to turn completely white. Imagine spending a hundred dollars to become white. Isn’t it quite a bargain?
Upon hearing this, Mo Ping suddenly felt it was indeed quite a bargain. After all, people didn’t even have the chance to become white and beautiful before. However, he quickly had a question, "What if it’s back to summer and gets tanned again?"
"Then just continue eating them."
Mo Ping couldn’t help but twitch his lips at this.
Yiyi glanced at him and said, "Don’t think it’s not a bargain. As long as you do proper sun protection and don’t expose yourself under the sun all the time, you generally won’t become dark again. So, the whitening pill is really quite good."
Of course, the best is the Jade Fragrance Pill she had just made. Once you consume the Jade Fragrance Pill, you never have to worry about getting tanned again while your skin turns as delicate as snow, and you’ll exude a faint personal fragrance.
Thinking of this, Yiyi couldn’t help but take one herself.
Seeing Yiyi take a medicine pill, Mo Ping laughed, "Little boss, you don’t need to take the whitening pill. You’re already very fair now, much prettier than before."
Previously, Yiyi didn’t eat well and worked a lot, so at sixteen or seventeen, she looked like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old. Now, having moved to town and eating well, she grew taller, and her features became more defined and exquisite, not to mention her skin is now snow white, she truly is a beauty.
Guo Ming also wholeheartedly agreed, nodding his head, "Indeed, very good-looking."
Upon hearing their compliments, Yiyi couldn’t help but laugh, "Thank you, I do feel like I’ve become prettier than before." As she spoke, Yiyi took out two porcelain bottles, handing one to Mo Ping and the other to Guo Ming, "These are for you, for saving your lives, take good care of them."
"What kind of medicine pill is this?"
Mo Ping curiously opened it for a look and was immediately hit by a rich medicinal fragrance, "These pills smell so good, what are they made of to smell this good." Mo Ping had only been in contact with these things for a short time, so he wasn’t very familiar with many ingredients.
Guo Ming, on the other hand, commented from the side, "It’s Lingzhi."
As he spoke, he also opened his porcelain bottle, took a whiff of the medicinal aroma, and quickly closed the lid. Initially, he didn’t think much of the pills Yiyi gave him, but now he was quite impressed. The Lingzhi used in these pills must be aged; otherwise, they wouldn’t have such a strong aroma. It seems Yiyi wasn’t exaggerating; these pills indeed are life-saving.
Seeing both of them gripping the porcelain bottles tightly, Yiyi nodded approvingly, glad that they recognized the value.
"Mo Ping, these pills are Rongzhi Pills. After giving one bottle to each of you, I have two more left for you to sell. Remember, one pill goes for three thousand, not a penny less."
"What..."
Mo Ping nearly dropped the bottle in shock, but regained his composure and tightened his grip on the porcelain bottle, repeatedly thinking ’thank goodness’. However, he soon swallowed and asked, "Little boss, did you mean to say three hundred?"
"No, I didn’t misspeak. It’s three thousand. Think about it, when facing life and death, having a pill that can save your life, don’t you think it’s worth three thousand?"
"Worth it."
Even though his own life isn’t very valuable, at a crucial moment, he would definitely choose to save his own life.
Guo Ming, standing on the side, casually added, "This price isn’t expensive. I’ll buy these two bottles directly from you."
"Ah..."
Mo Ping, clutching the bottle, was momentarily speechless, "Old Guo, what did you just say?"
"I said I’ll buy these two bottles of Rongzhi Pills."
This time, Mo Ping no longer doubted what he heard, but he skeptically eyed Guo Ming, "But do you have the money? Just now, the bottle Yiyi gave you was free, while these two bottles need to be paid for."
"I’ll go get the money tomorrow, so don’t sell these two bottles to anyone else."
Seeing the seriousness in Guo Ming’s words, Mo Ping gradually believed he intended to buy the pills but was still in disbelief, circling Guo Ming once and couldn’t help but ask, "Old Guo, where do you get the money from? If you have that much, why stick around this small place with us?"
Guo Ming gave Mo Ping a sidelong glance and then casually returned to his room.
Yiyi thoughtfully observed Guo Ming for a moment, pondering over his identity, but given Guo Ming’s reserved nature, it was really hard to uncover his history.
Shaking her head to dismiss the thoughts, Yiyi turned back to instruct Mo Ping not to sell the Rongzhi Pills and then headed straight home.
