This Side-effect Is Great - Chapter 35

Chapter 35 The First Batch Of Goods

Wang Yuliang and Hao Jiyong did not lie to him!

These ten beautiful girls were indeed intelligent and ingenious. At least they were much better than Song Ankang had imagined. They were not as numb and stupid as many ordinary tenants.

Or rather, the people who were numb and stupid were just the ancient people on some television dramas. Actually, the real ancient people were not stupid. The tenants of Chaoyun Manor were much better at farming than the people on Earth.

It was just that their knowledge was limited, so they seemed a little silly to some people. In fact, in their professional field, they were smarter than anyone else. When they looked at those self-righteous intellectuals, they also felt that they were fools who couldn’t even do farm work.

Some television dramas on Earth had harmed Song Ankang, making him think that the tenants of Chaoyun Manor were generally stupid. That was why he specially instructed Wang Yuliang and Hao Jiyong to find some smart and intelligent seedlings.

Then, to his surprise, Song Ankang discovered that these good seedlings were even better than him in certain procedures of handling medicinal herbs. Moreover, their learning speed and comprehension ability were beyond his imagination.

Chaoyun Manor’s main business was in food and medicinal herbs, so these girls were very good at the basic processing of many medicinal herbs. It was just that they did not go deeper.

Therefore, in terms of shallow processing, Song Ankang was far inferior to these girls. Even in terms of deep processing, their comprehension and learning ability were not much worse than Song Ankang’s.

However, because he did not understand the knowledge involved, let alone the methods and techniques, he seemed a little rusty and busy at first.

The initial stages were quite smooth. As the teaching progressed, all kinds of difficult questions began to appear. Fortunately, these girls were very attentive and none of them were muddle-headed, so their learning progress was not slow.

In addition, these medicinal herbs were all carefully selected by Song Ankang. It was not difficult to process them. Ordinary people could master them with more practice, let alone these carefully selected girls.

The girls were serious and focused, and all of them were good-looking. They surrounded Song Ankang and studied hard. Not only were they pleasing to the eye, but they also made people happy. Song Ankang’s enthusiasm for teaching also rose.

In the beginning, Song Ankang asked these girls to focus on the processing of a basic medicinal herb to avoid being too greedy and not being able to chew it. Therefore, their learning progress was much faster than Song Ankang had imagined.

In just a day, a young girl had grasped the key points of the basic medicinal herbs she was responsible for and started practicing.

On the second day, more girls mastered the deep processing of a basic medicinal herb. On the third day, all ten girls mastered the deep processing method and technique of a medicinal herb.

Song Ankang began to let them practice on a large scale. They did not have to worry about the consumption of medicinal herbs. Song Ankang could still afford this loss.

None of these girls deliberately damaged the medicinal herbs. They were especially serious every time they practiced because they knew very well that these damaged medicinal herbs were made of copper coins.

If it was damaged too much, he might lose this additional income and starve to death in the farmstead this year.

The tenants of Chaoyun Manor were generally simple and kind, and there were basically no bad people. People like Hao Jimeng were already the limit, subverting the imagination of most of the tenants.

Fortunately, evil people had their retribution. Hao Jimeng had already been killed by the members of the Ningmen Guild, and his body was still hanging near the Ningmen Guild’s casino.

Even these beautiful girls, at most, had some thoughts of social climbing. When they really worked, they were especially serious. They just liked to be by Song Ankang’s side in their free time.

It was similar to the operations of some green tea b*tches on Earth. The girls here had yet to master it and would not do it. It was already the limit to give Song Ankang a wink.

Even after leaving the workshop, these girls would still spend a lot of time practicing when they returned home. If they did not have any medicinal herbs, they would practice some basic techniques and movements. They wanted to master the medicinal herbs they were responsible for as quickly as possible.

Because he was busy with the workshop, Song Ankang was a little lazy in terms of cultivation. However, this was necessary. When the workshop was on the right track and could bring him endless wealth, Song Ankang could use it to buy a large number of cultivation resources and improve faster.

A beard lathered is half shaved. The current sacrifice was also to allow him to improve faster in the future.

However, because he had to hide his strength every day, the Hidden Heaven and Earth Technique progressed rapidly and was getting closer and closer to the Greater Mastery of the Hidden Form. The side effects also further promoted the improvement of Song Ankang’s foundation and strength.

There was no need to mention Traceless Snow Steps. Thanks to Song Ankang’s laziness in this aspect, Traceless Song Ankang had been advancing rapidly.

Song Ankang had also gradually adapted to the joy of stepping on the Traceless Snow Steps and was able to endure it without batting an eyelid. According to his current progress, it would only take about a month for him to reach the Greater Mastery stage.

This sounded like a long time, but it had to be known that even if other martial artists who cultivated the Traceless Snow Steps had outstanding talent, they would usually need to spend several years to reach the Greater Mastery stage. From this, one could tell how fast Song Ankang’s cultivation speed was.

At the moment, Traceless Snow Steps could also increase Song Ankang’s speed by several times. He could basically dominate the Body Refinement Realm. Even many first-rate martial artists could not compare to him.

His strength was steadily improving, and the progress of the processing of herbs was also very gratifying.

In just a few days, the ten girls had already mastered the basic medicinal herbs that they were responsible for. Moreover, the first batch of qualified finished products had already been produced. There were ten sets of each medicinal herb.

Song Ankang brought these processed basic herbs to Huachun Hall again, but this time, it was not Pang Huachun who received him, but the person in charge of Huachun Hall in Tongxin Town, Chen Fangshu.

Chen Fangshu looked dignified and beautiful. She did not look like the person in charge of the medicine shop. Instead, she looked like a good wife and mother, which surprised Song Ankang a little.

“Manor Lord Song, you’re here. Shopkeeper Pang has already told me about you. Please come in and sit.”

Chen Fangshu led the way with a smile, instructing the maid to make tea for Song Ankang. The group arrived at the waiting room.

On the way, Song Ankang asked, “Has Shopkeeper Pang gone back?”

“Yes, Shopkeeper Pang has a lot of things to do in the capital. He will occasionally come to the branch hall below to patrol. He will return the next day after meeting Song Manor Lord.” Chen Fangshu replied.

Song Ankang nodded and placed the medicinal herbs that had been processed in the past few days in front of Chen Fangshu. “Shopkeeper Chen, this is the harvest of Chaoyun Manor over the past few days. Take a look at the quality. If it’s possible, we’ll start mass production.”
