014 Expedited
After a period of expansion, the houses at the foot of Luanqishan Mountain are more than several times larger than when they first came.
Although it is simple, it can also shelter from wind and rain and cover up the cold.
During this period, there were special women dealing with iron wire vines. They first crushed them into fibers with tools, then soaked them in the medicinal solution and took them out forging.
According to the degree of forging, the wolf poison whip is divided into 100 forging, 300 forging and the best quality thousand forging.
This whip is called Wolf Poison Whip. It not only has fierce force, but also has extremely difficult wounds to heal and is very vicious, so it was named Wolf Poison Whip.
In the square, a high platform was set up with two Grand Master Chairs on it. The foreign master Lei Tianlai and Shen Du sat upright, closing his eyes without saying a word.
The eldest brother Huang Zhen stood in the middle of the platform with his hands on his back, watching the crowd gathering with a serious look on his face.
When the staff arrived, Huang Zhen coughed lightly, stopped the discussion below and stepped forward.
"My junior brothers, according to the news from the county town, the wolf poison whip we are going to make requires three hundred forgings to meet the requirements."
He glanced at everyone in the audience and continued to speak: "So, the number of wire vines at present is far from enough!"
"Ah! What should I do?"
"The weather is getting colder day by day, and it is about to be snowed heavily to close the mountain. Do you still have to go into the mountain to collect it?"
"Isn't this our life?"
A low voice of discussion sounded from below, and there was inevitably a little complaint.
"Stop the sound!"
Huang Zi raised his breath and made a sound. As soon as the voice was cold, the noise in the audience gradually stopped. This shows everyone's fear of this Senior Brother Huang.
"Don't worry, the two masters have their own solutions!"
Huang Zi raised his lips with satisfaction and spoke loudly: "We are summoning nearby mountain people to help us collect iron wire vines."
"In addition, if the task cannot be completed from today, the punishment will remain unchanged. But as long as the task is completed, each bundle of rewards will be rewarded with five big money! More work will be more rewarded!"
"From the first snowfall this year, every bundle of iron wire vines will be raised to ten big money! At that time, the punishment will be exempted, and the handyman can choose to enter the mountain or stay, and the apprentices must all enter the mountain and collect iron wire vines!"
"Ten big money! If you bundle a day, you'll have three hundred big money a month!"
Someone from the audience muttered in a low voice, unable to even suppress the excitement in his heart: "Three hundred dollars, the long-term worker of the pharmacy shop is not that good for a month!"
"The money is a lot, but the mountains are blocked with heavy snow, so it is unlikely to collect a bundle of iron wire vines in one day."
"That's not necessarily true. Besides, even if it doesn't work, it's worth it to bundle every two days!"
In Sun Heng's opinion, the big money here is similar to the one dollar in his previous life, but the wealth here is differentiated, and the exploitation of the bottom by the top leaders is extremely serious.
Rich people are rich, but ordinary people's monthly wages are only a few dozen cents, hundreds of cents, and three hundred cents, which is a considerable amount for many people.
The noise sounded from below again, but this time, there was excitement, anxiety, and a lot of things.
"Okay, that's how it's happening. I'll go back. The handyman wants to come to report tomorrow! Humph, it's a bargain!"
Huang Zi glanced at the people below with cold eyes, spoke coldly, and waved his hand to disperse the crowd.
After sending the two masters away with their hands, he walked to his house.
Huang Zhen and his junior brother Zhang Xiao live in the same room, but Zhang Xiao doesn't like to talk and has a dull face all day long. The relationship between the two is not that good.
After entering the room, there were two people waiting in the room. One of them was pointed-mouthed, monkey-mouthed, untidy, with a arched back and a slanted shoulder, and looked like the idle gangster on the street.
The other man was tall but dull, and followed the other person without saying a word.
"Brother Phine!"
The man with a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek was named Huang Shiyou, who was Huang Zhen’s family. He used to be a foreign apprentice in a pharmacy, but he was a scammer. After eight years, he failed to catch the master’s eyes and was driven out.
"I have contacted dozens of mountain villagers. They are all good at collecting herbs all year round and will definitely be able to complete the task!"
"Um."
Huang Zi nodded expressionlessly, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of hot water, sat on the chair and swayed: "How much have you swallowed?"
"Hehe..., not much."
Huang Shiyou laughed dryly: "I smoke four big money for each bundle! Of course, half of them belong to Brother Phine."
"laugh……"
Huang Zi smiled coldly and gave the other party a blank look: "Do you think I'm very poor at what money?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his face turned a little: "I don't care how much money you charge, but this mission must be completed in a solid manner! Otherwise, I will definitely not spare you!"
At the end, his face had become extremely fierce, and the threat in his mouth was not fake at all.
Huang Shiyou and his two bodies trembled and nodded quickly: "It must be, it must! We will never delay the business of the pharmacy."
"Just understand."
Huang Phine nodded, took a sip of tea, and his attitude slightly eased.
"Physs brother."
Huang Shiyou blinked his eyes and suddenly spoke in a low voice: "I wonder how much does this wolf poison whip cost?"
"Um?"
Huang Zhen raised his eyebrows: "Is this something you should care about?"
"No, no."
Huang Shiyou hurriedly shook his head: "I was just curious for a moment, curious! Our pharmacy hasn't put such great efforts in a long time."
"hehe……"
Huang Zi smiled coldly, pondered for a moment, and then continued to speak: "It's okay to tell you. As far as I know, a three hundred forged wolf poison whip is priced at five taels of silver, which is still the wholesale price!"
"Five taels?"
Huang Shiyou and the others couldn't help but take a breath. One tael of silver is a thousand dollars! Five taels of silver, no life here is worth this price!
"That's right, it's just five liang."
Huang Zi's eyes were full of envy. His monthly money was only one or two taels of silver. Of course, as a senior brother of foreign affairs, he could have some other extra money.
"Don't worry about the wolf poison whip. The potion to soak the iron wire vine is a secret recipe provided by the county. Even if you are given the iron wire vine, you will not be able to make the wolf poison whip."
"That's, that's!"
Huang Shiyou nodded with regret: "Brother Phine, let's say goodbye first. You will be here in the next two days."
"Um."
Huang Zhen waved his hand casually: "Go!"

Apprentice house backyard.
Screams continued, this was a senior brother who failed to complete the task and was being punished.
Just hearing the miserable voice makes people feel cold in their hearts.
As far as Sun Heng knows, in addition to Chen Tieying, two apprentices were dragged back to Qingyang Town during this period due to serious physical damage.
The orders issued by the masters were unreasonable, but they did not mean to correct them.
I'm afraid in their opinion, the apprentice dies when it dies. Anyway, new ones will come every once in a while, so it's not worth the effort.
Fortunately, it won’t take long, and when it snows and the punishment will no longer be punished, the apprentices’ life will be easier.
"Brother Sun."
Erya squatted beside Sun Heng and whispered: "When it snows, will you still enter the mountain?"
"meeting."
Sun Heng nodded: "A bundle of ten big money, there are not many opportunities like this."
Moreover, staying at the foot of the mountain was so uncomfortable for him!
"What if you don't eat enough?"
Erya looked at Sun Heng with a little worried look. She knew that this elder brother Sun's appetite was far more than ordinary people. Even if he added his marching ball, he would sometimes still show hunger.
"Don't worry."
Sun Heng comforted her and smiled. Among the few people who came with him, I was afraid that this Erya still maintained a little of her original innocence: "There is food in the mountains, and the mountain people have bacon on them. I can buy some in advance. Maybe it's better than the current situation."
Erya opened her mouth, but Sun Heng reached out to stop her.
"Shh..."
He pointed at the field: "Don't make a sound, my senior brother has started practicing stick techniques."
Every evening, some apprentices practice stick method here. They do not avoid others. After all, there are no outsiders here and they will learn it in the future.
