After walking for a long time, the two finally arrived at the first floor of the largest tool shop in the capital. In addition to acupuncture silver needles, swords are also sold here.
Lin Yi thought to herself that this era was really not the Qin Dynasty recorded in history. She remembered reading an abstract somewhere, saying that China had not opened up folk weapon casting until the Song Dynasty. What kind of dynasty is the current Qin Dynasty?
Walking into the dazzling building, Lin Yi noticed that the man in front of him was obviously different from other men in the building. He had an outstanding, elegant and easy-going temperament. But if you want to say that you are a shopkeeper, but you don’t have the feeling of Mr. Branch Accountant, what is the appropriate title?
Forget it, just follow the principle of calling a man "gong" and a woman "ma'am".
"Sir, how much is this set of needles?" Lin Yi pointed to a set of needles of different lengths wrapped in cowhide.
The man in front of her looked her over. He didn't expect such a young and beautiful woman to ask about the price of this set of needles. He chuckled lightly, pointed to the stacked silver needles and asked, "Miss, do you know how many needles there are here?"
Lin Yi didn't want to buy this set of needles, but she found that this set of needles had the most complete specifications, and judging from the packaging, it must be expensive. She just asked for a price and waited until she had saved enough money from working to buy it.
Since the other party was questioning her, she thought for a moment, pursed her lips and smiled: "Twenty-four strands, four lengths, two-inch four strands, three one-and-a-half-inch strands, one-inch five strands, and the shortest twelve strands. This young man, I can guess correct?"
A flash of astonishment flashed in the man's eyes. This set was no ordinary silver needle. It had been on the shelf for more than a year, but no one had noticed it. He never thought that the beautiful and lovely woman in front of him would directly ask about this set of needles. Originally it was just a casual test, but I didn't expect the woman to make the specifications and quantities so clear.
"Miss, you are really amazing. How can you guess it?"
Lin Yi didn't show off, and replied cheerfully: "I think this set of leather sheaths wrapped with silver needles is very sophisticated. Although they are not piled up properly and I can't see the quantity clearly, I can roughly tell that there are four specifications. Combined with the acupuncture points on the human body, I I guess it’s the fastest number of needles that can be produced in a short period of time, so it should be twenty-four silver needles.”
The man looked at Lin Yi carefully again. His temperament was gentle and his answers were generous. He seemed weak but showed a kind of tenacity.
"I don't know who the lady is, but I am the host Ye Ziming on the first floor." After saying that, he bowed.
Lin Yi was slightly startled. The man in front of him was as beautiful as a tree, and his every move showed elegance. He looked like he was only in his early twenties.
He is actually the landlord?
This is the largest tool shop in the capital. Were the ancients so powerful? !
Meeting his sincere gaze, Lin Yi introduced herself boldly without concealing her identity.
"The little girl is Lin Yi, the second daughter of Lin Weifu, who has met Lord Ye."
The second young lady of the Lin family? A flash of surprise flashed through Ye Ziming's heart. It was rumored that she was as beautiful as a flower, and was favored by King Huan at the same time as her sister-in-law, but she had a dull personality and rarely went out. The woman in front of me is Miss Lin Er? !
It seems that the rumors cannot be fully believed.
Ye Ziming raised his lips and said, "It turns out that Miss Lin Er is here. I am honored to meet you."
Lin Yi smiled politely, but at the moment she was only focused on the set of silver needles, and did not want to continue the ineffective conversation. She immediately asked: "Master Ye, how much is this set of silver needles? I'm afraid I don’t have enough money, so I’ll buy it later when I have more money.”
"To be honest with Miss Lin Er, this set of silver needles is not made of ordinary silver. Special materials are added during the production. A master's needle movement can increase the needle frequency ten times. Ordinary doctors will not buy it because they cannot use this set of silver needles. The effect. As for the price -" Thinking of the effort spent by the master craftsmen in making this set of silver needles, Ye Ziming laughed happily to himself. Although everyone was hoping that someone would recognize the goods, he had already predicted that it would be difficult to sell. After all, the capital city There are only a handful of people with superb medical skills.
"Master Ye?" Lin Yi had been waiting for his quotation with bated breath. Unexpectedly, Ye Ziming suddenly laughed happily. Don't be so pretentious!
"Not less than a thousand taels - gold." Looking at her nervous look, Ye Ziming felt even more funny.
Lin Yi's head exploded with a bang, one thousand taels of gold? Equivalent to ten thousand taels of silver! It will take more than ten months without eating or drinking...I have to find other ways to make money immediately. But will it be bought by others before you can collect enough money? Lin Yi reluctantly glanced at the needle set.
"Master Ye, can I try this set of needles?"
Zi Ming did not expect Lin Yi to be so fond of this set of silver needles, so he immediately handed it over without being stingy.
Lin Yi took out a long needle and turned the needle body, and a familiar feel appeared on her fingertips.
In college, she heard that the acupuncture teacher was one of the pillars of the school, so she took acupuncture as an elective in her sophomore year. Lin Yi has always felt that acupuncture is profound and profound, and she works a thousand times harder than students in the acupuncture department. When she encounters something she doesn’t understand, she immediately consults an acupuncture teacher. The teacher also admired her very much and lobbied her repeatedly to change her major.
Lin Yi smiled, those days seemed like yesterday. She calmed down and lifted up her left sleeve, ready to try out this expensive set of silver needles.
Cuizhu quickly pulled down Lin Yi's sleeves with sharp eyes and looked at her with a horrified expression, "Miss, no!"
Lin Yi looked at Cuizhu in surprise, and immediately realized, alas... It's just showing your arms, and it can also establish a good reputation. The ancients were really troublesome.
This series of actions fell into Ye Ziming's eyes, and he raised his sleeves with interest after a second thought.
"Which acupuncture point would Miss Lin Er want to test the acupuncture on?"
Lin Yi felt grateful, "Master Ye, do you dare to believe me?"
Looking at Lin Yi's raised eyebrows and confident lips, Ye Ziming smiled calmly, "It doesn't matter if I trust you once."
What does "believe you once" mean? Lin Yi curled her lips, looking down on people so much! But it makes sense to think about it. It’s the first time we meet and we’re not familiar with each other, so it’s nice for someone to show their arms. Then give him three injections to promote his blood circulation and make him feel refreshed.
Lin Yi took two long needles and one short needle, and quickly pierced Ye Ziming's right arm. After closing his hand, he saw the silver needle vibrating slightly.
Ye Ziming was shocked that Miss Lin could actually vibrate, something that many old doctors couldn't do.
After a while, the needle frequency did not attenuate.
Lin Yi looked at Zi Ming slyly, with a little pride on his face.
"The vibration frequency can continue for a while, but Master Ye is strong and does not need to continue acupuncture." After saying that, she took out the silver needle, wiped it and put it back in the cowhide bag.
She would rather have less than waste, and she didn’t want to buy any more ordinary needles.
Ye Ziming rolled up his sleeves and touched his arms. He felt a surge of true energy slowly rising in his body and flowing throughout his body. He felt relaxed and happy. He touched the place where Lin Yi had stabbed him. Although he was not a doctor, martial arts practitioners knew a lot about acupuncture points. Unfortunately, he did not know the acupoints Lin Yi had used.
"I wonder which acupuncture points Miss Lin Er just extracted?"
"Secret." Lin Yi smiled, "Master Ye, I have to go back and make preparations, so I'll take my leave now. I'll buy it next time when I have enough money." Then he turned around and prepared to leave.
Zi Ming stopped her with a big stride, "I will give this set of silver needles to Miss Lin Er."
Lin Yi looked at him in surprise, and his eyes fell on the silver needle again. What was worth a thousand taels of gold was given to him? Are you hallucinating?
"As the saying goes, a sword is given to a hero." Zi Ming smiled and presented the silver needle.
Seeing Ye Ziming offering the silver needles with sincerity, Lin Yi thought it was valuable but she no longer shied away from it. She kept the affection of this set of silver needles in her heart, and she would definitely not shirk and go all out if she was needed in the future.
"Then I'll accept it."
She carefully took the silver needle, raised her head to look at Ye Ziming, and said sincerely: "Master Ye, I am not a lady who never leaves home. I will go to the Eternal Medical Clinic for a consultation in two days. If there is anything, Please come to the hospital to see me anytime if you need anything."
Ye Ziming was slightly startled. Although he felt that Lin Yi was extraordinary in using needles, but he could treat illnesses and save people with such medical skills at such a young age? What's more, the Eternal Medical Clinic is Qin Shuihan's sphere of influence. Will he allow useless people to appear on his territory?
Looking at Lin Yi's retreating figure, Zi Ming raised the corner of his mouth.
This Miss Lin Er is also interesting.
