Chapter 22: Extremely Fresh Things,



It's in the river outside the village. Xiaoyan and I went fishing yesterday and caught it by luck. Lu Qing answered.

How can there be green turtles of this age in that small river? Old Doctor Chen was a little surprised.

The river outside the village is not that big, but it is rare for a green turtle to grow to this size.

But it suddenly occurred to him that none of the nearby villages seemed to make a living from fishing.

Maybe this is why the green turtle can grow up.

No wonder you said before that you felt you had a talent for fishing, and you were able to produce fish rocks of this quality. The green turtle is quite big, but you were able to catch it?

Old Doctor Chen looked at Lu Qing's somewhat thin body and couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

This is all thanks to the silk thread you gave me, Grandpa Chen. Lu Qing said modestly, Grandpa Chen, that silk thread is really tough. Without it, I really wouldn't be able to catch this big fish.

As long as it's useful, it's useless if I keep it here anyway.

Old Doctor Chen waved his hand, not really caring.

On the contrary, he was somewhat interested in the wooden barrel that Lu Qing had been holding in his hand.

What's in the bucket? It looks like it's quite heavy.

Because Lu Qing put some branches and leaves into the bucket when he went out to prevent the fish from being too frightened, old doctor Chen couldn't see clearly what was in the bucket.

Inside is something I want to give you, Grandpa Chen. Lu Qing began to take out the branches and leaves from the bucket. Yesterday, Xiaoyan and I went fishing and caught two big fish in total. We ate the big green turtle. I just want to give Grandpa Chen a taste of the smaller one.

Yes, Grandpa Chen, this fish is so beautiful. Grandpa Zhang and the others don't even know what kind of fish it is. Xiaoyan also said.

Oh, you are so thoughtful, then I want to see what kind of fish it is.

Old Doctor Chen became even more interested when he heard this.

That's the fish.

Lu Qing cleared all the branches and leaves in the bucket and handed the bucket to the old doctor.

The old doctor looked into the bucket and saw the flaming fish. He was shocked at first, and then moved.

He blurted out: This, is this the Red Moon Carp?

The old doctor really knew this fish.

Lu Qing's mind was spinning with thoughts, but there was doubt on his face.

Grandpa Chen, do you know what kind of fish this is?

The old doctor put Xiaoyan down, stepped forward, put his hand into the bucket and teased the fish, and then carefully identified it.

Finally confirmed: You can't be wrong, this is the Red Moon Carp!

The old doctor looked at Lu Qing, and he was really surprised now, You can even catch such a strange fish as the red moon carp?

Grandpa Chen, what is Red Moon Carp? Xiaoyan asked ignorantly.

This Red Moon Carp is a bit extraordinary.

When Old Doctor Chen saw that Lu Qing was also confused, he simply explained.

The red moon carp is a kind of strange fish. In this world, everything that can be called a strange fish has its own uniqueness.

This red moon carp is famous for its deliciousness.

It is rumored that its taste is so delicious that once you eat it, you will never forget it. Therefore, some good people call it one of the ten delicacies in the world.

One of the ten most beautiful things in the world?

This time it was Lu Qing's turn to be surprised.

He didn't expect that the red moon carp would be so famous.

It is indeed a strange fish that can be evaluated as an extremely rare thing by supernatural powers.

The big red fish is so powerful! Xiaoyan was also a little shocked, Grandpa Chen, have you ever eaten the big red fish?

Grandpa, I was lucky enough to taste the red moon carp once at a nobleman's banquet. The taste...

Old Doctor Chen didn't finish his words, but even Xiaoyan could see the aftertaste look on his face.

Then it would be most appropriate to give this red moon carp to you, Grandpa Chen. Lu Qing said.

I dare not accept this gift from you. Old Doctor Chen came back to his senses, Do you know how much money this red moon carp could fetch if sold in the city?

Lu Qing shook his head.

One hundred taels of silver. Old Doctor Chen stretched out a finger and saw the shock on Lu Qing's face. He continued, The best quality red moon carp can be sold for at least one hundred taels of silver.

A fish is worth one hundred taels of silver? Lu Qing took a breath.

He knows that the purchasing power of money in this world is very strong.

One tael of silver can feed a family of three for a month.

And in his memory, when the Lu family was the richest, they probably didn't even have ten taels of cash.

Now a fish is worth a hundred taels, which is really beyond his expectation.

The key point is that this is just a strange fish with a hint of red light in the white light. If it is a real red light level spiritual fish, how precious will it be?

This world is very big, Lu Qing. Old Doctor Chen sighed, The daily expenses of those nobles are beyond ordinary people's imagination. Do you know how much it costs to treat some nobles to a banquet? ?”

Lu Qing shook his head again.

It will cost at least a thousand taels of silver. If you are entertaining distinguished guests, the cost will be unimaginable.

This red moon carp is a rare and extremely rare thing. Those nobles who are not short of money, in order to taste such delicious food, a mere hundred taels of silver is nothing.

Lu Qing's mouth opened slightly.

Half of his expression was fake, and the other half was genuine surprise.

Sure enough, no matter which world you are in, rich people are so extravagant.

How about it, now do you want to give this red moon carp to me, the old man?

Old Doctor Chen looked at the look of disbelief on Lu Qing's face and joked.

Lu Qing came back to his senses, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded firmly: Send it, of course I will. Compared to Grandpa Chen, your life-saving grace, a hundred taels of silver is nothing. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have done it. Standing here, let alone catching this red moon carp!

Ha ha ha ha……

Old Doctor Chen suddenly laughed heartily.

After laughing for a while, he stopped laughing and said with a pleased expression: I'm very happy that you have such a heart, old man, but I really can't take this red moon carp. It's such a waste to feed me such a precious fish. ”

But Grandpa Chen...

Lu Qing was about to say something, but Old Doctor Chen raised his hand and interrupted him.

Okay, it's settled. You put the fish here with me, and after two days, I will take it to the city and sell it for you, exchange it for silver, and you can take it back for household use.

Lu Qing's mouth opened, but in the end he didn't insist anymore and just said: Okay, but Grandpa Chen, the money you get from selling fish must first pay for your previous medical expenses.

Okay! Old Doctor Chen nodded.

But he didn't tell Lu Qing that the precious medicinal materials added to the decoction he prescribed before were no less valuable than the red moon carp.

Because the old doctor could see that Lu Qing was a young man with great self-esteem.

If he knew the value of that decoction, he would probably never want the money from the red moon carp again.

Old Doctor Chen looked at the red moon carp in the bucket again.

Then he frowned and said, It's a pity that although your red moon carp is of good quality, it's a bit bigger. I'm afraid it won't be worth a hundred taels of silver, and the value will be slightly lower.

Why, Grandpa Chen, isn't the bigger the fish, the better? Xiaoyan asked confused.

Generally speaking, this is the case, but this Red Moon Carp is different. Old Doctor Chen explained.

The most rare thing about red moon carp is its delicious taste. Generally, when the red moon carp weighs about two kilograms, it is at its most delicious and tender. For those weighing more than this, even if the umami taste is not reduced, the meat is slightly If you look older, your value will naturally not be that high.”

Lu Qing can understand this.

Just like some seafood in previous lives, the bigger they are, the more expensive they are. On the contrary, when they are smaller, the unit price is higher.

No matter what the value is, Grandpa Chen is here to help. Lu Qing said.

No matter how valuable the Red Moon Carp was, Lu Qing couldn't sell it.

He believed that if he really dared to appear in the city with such a strange fish, even if he could make money from it, he might not be able to leave the city.

Perhaps only practitioners like Dr. Chen are qualified to get involved in such a transaction.

By the way, this red moon carp has always been rare, and its habits are difficult to identify. It likes to be solitary and hard to find. How did you catch it? Old Doctor Chen asked curiously.

Maybe it's luck. After I caught the green turtle yesterday, I fished for a while and happened to catch this red moon carp. Lu Qing replied.

But my heart moved slightly.

It's hard to tell the habits. So even the old doctor doesn't know that the red moon carp likes to eat blood apricots?

So, you are really lucky. Old Doctor Chen sighed, Perhaps God saw that you brothers and sisters were living too hard, so he sent these blessings to you.

The old doctor thought of Lu Qing's sudden improvement in his illness.

Perhaps this is also the reason why Lu Qing's illness suddenly recovered?

After sighing for a while, old doctor Chen put the red moon carp into a water tank in the house to keep it temporarily, and then gave Lu Qing an injection.

After the injection this time, Lu Qing's sleep time was shorter than last time.

After waking up, I saw the old doctor and Xiaoyan still chatting and laughing in the yard, and there was still a plate of yam cake on the stone table.

Wake up, come on, let's eat something first.

When Old Doctor Chen saw Lu Qing coming out, he pushed the cakes on the table over.

This time Lu Qing did not refuse, picked up a piece of pastry and ate it slowly.

Old Doctor Chen observed the look on Lu Qing's face and nodded.

Yes, it seems that you have listened to my instructions these days and have not treated yourself badly in terms of food and drink.

Grandpa Chen, my brother and I have been eating delicious food every day these days. The food my brother cooks is delicious! Xiaoyan showed off at the side.

Well, Grandpa noticed it. The old doctor touched the little guy's head with pity.

With his medical skills, how could he not see that the two siblings looked much better than they had in the past few days.

After Lu Qing had eaten a few pieces of cake, the old doctor said slowly: I said before that after this injection, you are allowed to learn about medicinal materials from me for half an hour. Do you remember it?

Lu Qing immediately sat up straight and said solemnly: Of course Lu Qing remembers it.

So now, do you still have the desire to learn medicinal materials?

Of course, Lu Qing's interest in medicinal herbs has never weakened.

That's good. Old Doctor Chen laughed, I thought that after you caught a red moon carp and were about to make a lot of money, you would no longer want to take the path of collecting medicine.

Lu Qing wants to learn the knowledge of medicinal materials, not just for living, but because he is really curious about all kinds of magical medicinal materials and wants to know how they can cure diseases and save people. Lu Qing said seriously.

In that case, come with me.

Old Doctor Chen got up and walked into the house.

Lu Qing quickly followed.

When they arrived at the room, Dr. Chen took out a book and put it in Lu Qing's hand.

There is a Hundred Herbs Classic here, which records the names, diagrams and growth habits of various medicinal materials. Take it and study it carefully, and compare it with the herbs dried outside the yard. If you don't understand anything, just come and ask me.

Lu Qing was stunned while holding the book: Grandpa Chen, didn't you ask me to help you dry the medicinal materials and learn from you at the same time?

Now he actually handed a medicinal book directly to him.

Lu Qing knows that in this world, books are very precious.

Firstly, paper is expensive, and secondly, pen and ink are also expensive.

The grandfather of the original owner, when he fled, he took nothing else with him but a few books.

Unfortunately, during the escape, the books were lost.

So much so that when the original owner was a child, he often heard his grandfather lamenting that he was ashamed of his ancestors for the loss of those ancient family books.

Later, because his family was poor and could not afford paper, pen and ink, Grandfather Lu was never able to revise those ancient family books.

Even the original owner could only recognize some characters and was very weak in writing.

Why, aren't you happy? Old Doctor Chen asked.

Of course I'm happy to, Lu Qing said quickly.

In this world, he still knows how precious knowledge is.

That's okay, then you can start learning now.

Seeing that the old doctor had said this, Lu Qing could only take the book and return to the courtyard.

After giving Xiaoyan a few words of advice, he walked to a quiet place and opened the book.

However, after reading a few pages, Lu Qing couldn't help but frown.

Because, in the Baicao Jing, many medicinal materials have quite weird names, and the characters are very uncommon.

The original owner did not know many words.

Although he has memories of his past life, the words in the two worlds are different.

Even he didn't recognize some words.

This makes the Baicao Jing very obscure to read.

If this continues, he wants to learn the knowledge inside, but he doesn't know how long it will take.

Lu Qing knew that he was not the kind of extremely smart person.

There is no such thing as the ability to understand everything at once.

In his previous life, he was just an ordinary person with a normal IQ, who studied hard and barely managed to get into an ordinary university.

Therefore, if he wanted to learn the Baicao Jing as soon as possible, he probably had to show off the same hard-working energy he had during the college entrance examination.

After encouraging himself, Lu Qing continued to read.

Then, as he looked at it, the medicinal scripture in front of him suddenly glowed with a hazy white light.

[Baicao Jing: A book that records many medicinal herbal knowledge. 】

[After learning this book, you may have a rough understanding of the herbs in the world. 】

【Do you want to download? 】

The first two notes were okay, but when the third note appeared, Lu Qing was stunned.
