Chapter 19 Cinnabar The yellow paper was not expensive.
I bought three large sheets for 50 coppers and cut them for customers.
Ye Kong asked to cut the paper into strips of two inches wide and five inches long.
The shop owner didn't ask why.
He just cut it for the money.
After a while, hundreds of long and narrow yellow slips of paper were delivered to Ye Kong.
After paying the money, he grabbed an erotic album from the shop owner.
"Buy one, get one free."
Ye Kong flipped through the book and walked away.
Yellow paper is easy to buy, but cinnabar is not so easy to buy.
In fact, in professional terms, cinnabar is solid mercury sulfide, the main component of which is mercury.
There are no chemical stores in Cangnan Continent, so the only way to buy this stuff is at pharmacies.
Not to mention, pharmacies do sell it, but because cinnabar is rarely used by people, Ye Kong went to several pharmacies and took out the goods.
Finally, under the guidance of others, he came to the most prosperous Tongchundang in the middle of the city.
"This is Tongchun Hall.
I hope I can buy cinnabar."
Ye Kong stood under the golden door plaque of Tongchun Hall and muttered, then walked up the steps.
After all, it is the largest pharmacy in Nandu City.
The lobby is very spacious, and people buying medicines are coming and going.
There are a few people sitting around the consultation table in the corner, and they don't know what they are arguing about.
Ye Kong turned around and looked in the direction of the door, then went straight to the medicine counter.
"Excuse me, are there any cinnabar for sale here?"
Ye Kong asked the waiter inside.
"Ah, there seems to be some cinnabar, please wait."
The waiter felt a little strange when he heard the cinnabar, and hurriedly asked the shopkeeper in the lobby.
"There is cinnabar, one tael of silver and one penny."
The middle-aged shopkeeper replied, looking at Ye Kong who was wearing a rough coat outside, and then told the waiter, "There is still some of that stuff in the warehouse, it's hard to find, so let him give you the money first. " Ye Kong's ears and eyesight have become sharp since he practiced the Five Elements Ascension Sutra.
He heard the shopkeeper's words clearly.
He also knew that he was afraid that he would find out and couldn't afford it, so he simply took out ten taels of silver.
"Give me a tael."
Ye Kong put down the money.
"Okay."
The waiter drawled, accepted the money, and said politely, "Dear guest, there is a bench over there for resting.
Please rest, I will go to the warehouse to find it for you."
Ye Kong nodded, walked to the resting place next to him, sat down, closed his eyes and waited.
As soon as Ye Kong closed his eyes, his ears became more sensitive.
Not only could he hear everyone talking in the lobby, but he could also clearly understand who was where, who was talking, and who the other person was.
"This magical technique is indeed magical."
Ye Kong praised in his heart.
He had just refined the first level of Qi and his five senses were so sharp.
It seems that it will not be difficult to listen to thousands of miles in the future.
"Doctor Kan, please help me.
My mother will go blind if she doesn't treat her eyes."
"If you don't go, you have to pay for medical treatment.
We are a medicine hall, not a charity hall."

"Miracle Doctor Kan, can we, the Lu family brothers, beg you?"
"Why are you still doing this if you can't?
You scoundrels like you know that when we are begging for help, you won't go if you don't want to go, and you won't treat your illness if you don't give us money."
Ye Kong opened his eyes when he heard this and looked at the doctor's desk where the dispute was taking place.
There were doctors in the big pharmacies, who would take medicine for minor ailments and pains.
He opened his eyes and paid attention because he heard about the ruffians, and he wanted to see what was going on with his colleagues in Cangnan Continent.
However, the scoundrels in these two places are a bit worse than the scoundrels on Earth.
Although these two people are tall and strong, their clothes are very shabby, with short-cut coarse cloth clothes and a small hemp rope tied around their waists, just like farmers. .
The two local scoundrels were anxious when they were rejected by the doctor.
The older one stared blankly but had no idea what to do.
He took a breath and begged again, "Mr.
Kan, you don't care about the faults of villains.
The gang forced us last time."
Come to Tongchun Hall to collect your monthly payment.”
"Then you go to the Dragon Snake Gang to find someone to see a doctor."
Divine Doctor Kan interrupted coldly, and then snorted, "Don't even think about causing trouble.
We have already paid the monthly fee, so you can't make trouble in our place, otherwise you will The gang leader won’t spare you either.”
Ye Kong closed his eyes again after hearing this.
These two gangsters came here to collect protection money before and offended the pharmacy.
Now they want to hire a doctor for treatment without paying.
Of course, the doctor will take this opportunity to take revenge.
Of course he doesn't want to take care of it.
He doesn't have any money.
You can't help just because you are a colleague from another world.
There are many rogues.
Who told you to be polite when collecting protection fees?
I think back when I was hanging around Hanzheng Street, The clinic in the film takes special care, and no one can guarantee that there will be minor injuries and pains.
But just as Ye Kong closed his eyes, he heard the ruffian say in a deep voice, "Doctor Kan, let's do this.
Our family has a jade, which is an heirloom of our Lu family.
If you help my mother cure her illness, I will let you You watch it once.”
Divine Doctor Kan opened his mouth and laughed loudly, "I've heard about that precious jade in your house.
Isn't it just that there are vaguely dancing figures in it when the moonlight shines?
Is there anything interesting to see?
For ten taels of silver, Kan will go to Shangchunlou.
It doesn’t cost ten taels of silver to see a girl for one night.”
After the miracle doctor finished speaking, the people around him also laughed.
Someone said, "Cangnan Continent is old, and many people have some bullshit family heirlooms.
At last glance, they are all garbage.
I heard that the jade in your family can be obtained from You can see the profound martial arts in the little dancing man, but why haven't you two brothers become masters?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Kong paid close attention.
Indeed, Cangnan Continent has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years.
Many families have treasures, many of which are useless, but there is no guarantee that there will be real treasures.
Just because you can’t see Mingtang, doesn’t mean you guys can’t see it.
Aren’t the Ye Family Treasure Books regarded as garbage by the immortals?
The Lu brothers begged again, but they had offended the doctor a lot, and Divine Doctor Kan just ignored them.

They had no choice but to bow their heads and prepare to leave.
"Brothers of the Lu family, please stay."
A young man in a coarse robe stood in front of them.
"Whose unlucky child has nothing to do with you?
Get lost."
Sure enough, no matter what world he is in, this gangster is a gangster, and his tone of voice is the same.
Ye Kong was not annoyed and said with a smile, "The Immortal Ban Ban is kind enough to treat me as a donkey's liver and lungs.
Since you don't want my help, forget it."
When the Lu brothers heard this, they wanted to help.
The older one hurriedly came over and apologized, "Sir, this is Lu Jun.
That was my brother Lu Yi.
My mother is seriously ill at home and he has a bad temper.
Please forgive me."
Ye Kong nodded and said directly, "I have more than nine taels of silver, so I can barely lend you a favor, but I want to see your precious jade."
The miracle doctor said that a doctor would need ten taels for treatment, but he was actually just making an estimate.
Nine taels was quite a lot.
Lu Jun was overjoyed and quickly bowed to express his thanks.
The onlookers surrounding them all started shouting, "Young Master, the Lu brothers are all scoundrels.
Don't let them deceive you."
"Young Master, there's really nothing to see in that jade.
Go to my house to see my family heirloom.
It only costs eight taels of silver."
"It only costs seven taels to go to my house."
"Six Liang" "Show one tael and take five taels away."
Ye Kong was about to faint.
It seemed that every family in Cangnan Continent had heirlooms.
Alas, I don’t know if the Lu family would be at a loss for this.
Lu Jun and Lu Yi had a notorious reputation.
When he heard the noise from the people around him, he immediately opened his eyes wide and snorted coldly.
He was too frightened to watch the excitement and did not dare to say anything more.
At this time, the cinnabar had already been found at the counter over there.
Ye Kong took the cinnabar, and the Lu brothers had also hired Dr.
Kan and hired a carriage.
A few people and a car headed to Lu's house.
On the way, Ye Kong learned that a month ago, the Lu brothers went to Tongchundang to collect protection money.
Not only did they have a bad tone, but they also injured two nursing homes.
Of course, Divine Doctor Kan hated their brothers.
However, the Lu brothers were helpless.
They were asked to come by their gang, and all the money they received had to be handed over.
The Dragon Snake Gang was very dark, and it would be difficult for those who work there, but there was nothing they could do.
I heard Gang leader Fan Jiulong is a master, and his younger brother Fan Jiulong is an elusive and powerful character.
Ye Kong shook his head after hearing this.
It seemed that the underworld in Cangnan Continent really hadn't gotten over it yet.
Originally, he had thought about returning to his old business, but now it seemed that there was no point in having a gang like this with such a selfish boss.
Soon they arrived at Lu's house, but the gem had to be exposed to the moonlight at night, so Ye Kong just checked the door and came back to see it at night.

Although Ye Kong's expectations for this family heirloom have been reduced a lot, after all, we paid for it, so we still have to take a look.
Afraid that the two brothers were cheating, Ye Kong reminded him before leaving, "Lu Jun and Lu Yi, I am the eighth son of Zhennan General's Mansion.
If you need anything, come to me in the manor."
Of course Ye Kong is not asking them to find him, he is just warning them not to cheat, otherwise we will have ways to deal with you.
Although no one in the Ye family regarded the eighth young master as a human being, it was still very effective to scare outsiders.
The Lu family brothers, including the miracle doctor Kan, all hurriedly saluted.
Ye Kong waved his hand, "No need."
Just as he was about to leave, Lu Jun reminded him in a low voice, "If you want to send the eighth young master back home, there are a few tails of the Dragon and Snake Gang behind you."
Ye Kong had already noticed the few who were following him, but he didn't expect Lu Jun to find out too.
It seemed that these two brothers were not interesting enough at first.
They were probably planning to let those guys rob him, and he didn't need to see the family heirloom.
"It's just a few gangsters, you don't have to worry about it."
Ye Kong was a little unhappy in his heart.
Damn it, Cangnan Continent is really a good person.
I'm so anxious to save you, but you didn't even remind me.
Seeing that Ye Kong was unhappy, Lu Jun didn't dare to say anything more.
He only asked Ye Kong to report his family name when the time comes, so those gangsters would naturally not dare to provoke him.
Ye Kong sneered, I need to declare my family status.
I have just been practicing for a year.
