the next day
Wei Han went directly to Manager Xu and asked him for half a day's leave.
There was not much free time in the warehouse, and Manager Xu also knew the situation, so he approved the leave without asking any questions.
Wei Han left the pharmacy after having lunch.
First, in a deserted alley, he put on his old tattered clothes and pretended to be an ordinary disaster victim.
Then he went straight to the Chen's Pharmacy branch two streets away.
As the largest pharmacy in Qingshan County, Chen's Pharmacy has three branches.
Although this store is smaller, the flow of people is still busy, and no one here knows the unkempt Wei Han.
As soon as he entered the branch, he was stopped and scolded by a waiter: "What are you doing? Go out and beg for food. This is a pharmacy, not a restaurant."
"Brother, I'm here to test medicine and make money, not to beg for food." Wei Han changed his voice and spoke with a naive smile.
"Trying the medicine, right?" The boy's attitude softened a lot, and he took him to the side compartment and said, "The trial medicine is here, 1 tael of silver at a time, you are responsible for life and death."
"Is there really one tael?"
Wei Han pretended to be ecstatic.
The boy curled his lips subconsciously, feeling contempt in his heart.
I thought to myself that these poor people are really short-sighted, and 1 tael of silver is indeed a sky-high price.
But to make money, you also need to spend money. Do you know how many people are carried out every day?
"go Go."
The boy was not interested in saying anything more.
He just waved his hand and turned around and left here.
Wei Han took a look at the small cubicle at this time and found that there was a counter inside. A doctor's apprentice was registering and dispensing medicine, and there were seven or eight disaster victims who were worse than beggars queuing up.
Inside the cubicle, there are more than a dozen people who have tried the medicine and are waiting for the results.
Most of them looked depressed, some were dying with nosebleeds, and a few were rolling around on the ground holding their stomachs, which looked very breathtaking.
There was also a physician apprentice beside them, constantly asking and recording their feelings.
He really treats people as guinea pigs and is cruel to the extreme.
"Brother, why don't we forget it? I heard that this test medicine will kill people, and there will be a lot of corpses added to the mass graves every day."
"What are you afraid of? We are strong and there is nothing to be afraid of. One time is only 1 tael of silver."
"Let's find a job carrying big bags. I can earn more than one or two silver a month. Even if I can't find it, there are wealthy households outside the city who will give porridge. I won't starve to death."
"Gungungun, if you want to drink porridge, go ahead, I want to eat meat!"
A pair of brothers in front of Wei Han were discussing quietly.
Although the sound was not loud, it spread throughout the cubicle.
Everyone's expressions were different, some were moved and others flinched.
But in the end, they still can't resist the magic of money.
Everyone gritted their teeth and signed the drug trial contract, then took the pills and swallowed them.
"Ahem! Poof!"
At this time, an old drug tester coughed violently and vomited blood.
Before anyone could react, he fell to the ground, convulsed and died.
"He's dead, he's dead, he took the same medicine as us!"
"My mother, won't we die too?"
Everyone immediately panicked.
The two pharmacist apprentices were not surprised. They didn't even bother to raise their eyes. They just waved their hands and asked the handymen to drag the body away.
It's just a few people dying this year and it doesn't make any waves at all.
"If you don't have a signature, it's too late to quit. It's hard to make money." An apprentice sneered and said: "What we are trying today is the newly developed ancient residual prescription Longhu Dan, which is refined from 36 kinds of precious medicinal materials. , the cost of one pill is more expensive than your life."
"In order to suppress the heat and hotness of tiger blood in the pills, several yin-cold and slightly poisonous drugs were specially added. Therefore, the risk of testing the pills is very high. Otherwise, the sky-high price of 1 tael of silver would not have been offered. Please think about it before signing. Press But you can’t go back on it after taking the mudra.”
The apprentice's words were cold both inside and outside.
But it can be seen that he is a warm-hearted person and cannot bear the victims to die here indiscriminately.
"Is it so dangerous? I'd better forget it. Even if the government gives you porridge, you can drink half full, as long as you don't starve to death!"
"You're so scared, I'm a tough man!"
"That's right, if you're not afraid of being poor, why are you afraid of death?"
After a while of discussion among the people in line.
Only one young man with a sallow complexion retreated timidly.
Others signed, drew, and fingerprinted as usual, and then swallowed the pills.
When Wei Han arrived, the apprentice in charge of registration asked without raising his eyes: "How many pills should I try?"
"How many?" Wei Han was stunned and asked, "Isn't it one for each person?"
"Of course not." The physician apprentice explained impatiently: "One pill is only the lowest grade. Sometimes, in order to test the limits of the new medicine, we allow multiple pills to be swallowed together. In short, each additional pill swallowed is an extra tael of silver. , you can do it or not."
"Do it!" Wei Han immediately beamed, raised his hand and said without hesitation: "Five, quick!"
"How many?"
The two physician apprentices were immediately startled.
The other people who tested the medicine also had their eyes wide open and their faces were confused. They looked at Wei Han as if they were looking at a fool.
This is a great tonic prepared for warriors, and it is an ancient remnant recipe that has not yet been developed. One pill can easily kill someone.
No matter how strong a person is, he only dares to try two.
Is this guy crazy? You actually want to try five?
"I'm short of money!" Wei Han held back a tear and pretended to be sad: "My sister is seriously ill and urgently needs medical treatment. The doctor said that it will take at least five taels of silver to cure her."
As soon as he finished speaking, the shock in everyone's eyes turned into pity.
Then there were sighs in the crowd, but no one tried to persuade him.
Which one of you here is not a man whose family has been destroyed? It is not uncommon for poor people to risk their lives to make money.
"Okay!" The physician apprentice nodded and said, "This is a contract. After you sign and post it, you can get money to test the medicine."
"good!"
Wei Han didn't even think about it and signed directly.
He casually filled in his name with Wang Wu, received an ingot of five taels of silver on the spot, and then swallowed five Dragon and Tiger Pills in a row under the witness of everyone.
"Um!"
Wei Han pretended to have a changed expression.
Under the gaze of everyone with pity or greed, he sat silently aside and said nothing.
But he was already happy in his heart, because he clearly felt a powerful medicinal power dissolving in his body, and at the same time there was a burst of toxins eroding his body.
Unfortunately, the toxin has been expelled from the system before it can take effect.
However, the warming and tonic power was retained and continued to nourish the body.
"It's such a powerful medicine. It's stronger than if I swallowed two kilograms of dried medicine. It seems that the efficacy of the refined medicine has been improved a lot."
"Huh? This Dragon Tiger Pill contains tortoise shell, Polygonatum sibiricum, Five-fingered peach, Acanthopanax senticosus, deer antler, Rehmannia glutinosa..."
"There is also a powerful medicine that should be tiger blood. The prescription is wrong. So many warming tonics should not be used. The dosage of Acanthopanax and deer antler should be reduced, and red peony root and Trachelospermia vine should be added to neutralize it."
"Only warriors at the late stage of the Strength Training Realm dare to take this kind of powerful medicine. If ordinary people swallow it, they will suffer from nosebleeds, abdominal pain and internal heat, or they will die suddenly on the spot."
Wei Han muttered secretly in his heart.
The special effects of Shen Nong's taste of hundreds of herbs made him well aware of all kinds of medicines.
He also quickly analyzed the pros and cons of the medicinal materials in Dragon Tiger Pill.
Time passed by, and Wei Han stayed here for half an hour, pretending to be weak, and still didn't die in accordance with the drug testing rules. During this period, the physician apprentice came over to check several times and was amazed.
This shocked everyone who thought he would die suddenly on the spot?
"It's time, can I go?"
Wei Han stood up happily and left without waiting for the two physician apprentices to say anything, leaving only a bunch of dumbfounded people looking at each other.
A huge sum of five taels can be easily obtained!
But Wei Han was not satisfied yet. After some disguise, he rushed to the next pharmacy.
