Chapter 31 -31 Gaining a Windfall by Poaching is Also Doing Good

“If we had money, dad and mom would definitely be more easily persuaded. It just so happens that I know there is a treasure on this mountain at this moment that could solve our predicament of having no capital.”

Thinking of something from her past life, Lu Yun suddenly felt as if she had been injected with chicken blood.

“What treasure is it?”

Seeing Lu Yun so excited, Shitou also became interested.

“It’s a hundred-year-old ginseng,” Lu Yun said with a smile. “Actually, a hundred-year-old ginseng isn’t all that remarkable. What’s more important is that this hundred-year-old ginseng was discovered by the Su family’s third son, also known as my third uncle, in my last life. I even know the exact spot.”

Being able to snatch away the windfall that should’ve belonged to the Su family’s third son, while openly resolving the issue of capital needed for her father, mother, and Shitou’s business ventures, Lu Yun found herself feeling delighted whichever way she thought about it.

In her last life, next year the Su family’s third son would discover that hundred-year-old ginseng on the mountain, then dig it up and sell it for a lot of money. The Su family would show off and bask in glory in the village for a while.

The Su family’s third son also used that money to build a house, divorced his not-so-pretty and shrewish wife, and eventually, with a grand dowry, married a girl who was considered one of the most beautiful in the nearby villages, eliciting envy, jealousy and hatred from all the bachelors in the village who were too poor to afford a wife.

Unfortunately, the Su family’s third son’s new wife, despite being beautiful, lacked cunning and was too soft in character. She didn’t last many years in the tough environment of the Su family and passed away without leaving any children. In the end, the third son’s wealth was squandered, and he humbly went back to take his former wife home to continue living together.

By digging up the ginseng ahead of time in this life, she was also doing a good deed by preventing her “third uncle” from ruining another girl’s life. After all, his “later third aunt” was a pitiable person. Although she never helped Lu Yun in those days, she was the only Su family member who had never lifted a hand or scolded her.

Remembering now, the place where the third son found the ginseng wasn’t far from here, in fact, she only needed to make a detour on the way back. Lu Yun knew the location only because the Su family’s third son once proudly took his family to see it specifically. She, curious, had followed along, and because she was slow on the mountain path, she had been scolded by Chen Juxiang.

Really, how could she have almost forgotten about it?

“You’re not impressed by a hundred-year-old ginseng? Do you have something better?” Shitou raised an eyebrow at Lu Yun, finding her arrogance a bit too much.

“My space has always had all kinds of medicinal herbs, even thousand-year-old ginseng. Not only are they of supreme quality, but more importantly, they can be replenished automatically after use,” Lu Yun declared proudly with her head tilted up, showing off her precious space.

Although, compared to the spaces in other novels, hers didn’t contain land or a spiritual spring, it made up for it with a super huge alchemy room, which stored all the herbs she needed.

Every once in a while, the space would automatically replenish with rare medicinal herbs like several hundred-year-old, even thousand-year-old ginseng, Ganoderma, Cordyceps, and even Tianshan Snow Lotus. So she really didn’t care much for that hundred-year-old ginseng.

She had once extracted some herb seeds from her space and tried planting them in the most fertile soil outside. The result was that although the quality was directly comparable to wild herbs, it was incomparable to those grown in her space. It was like the difference between a top-grade and an inferior product.

Lu Yun had more than once doubted that the legacy she received possessed the ability to upgrade.

That’s because the Pharmacopoeia in her space, which she could currently open, was just the “Basic Volume,” divided into the upper and lower parts. In her last life, it took her nearly twenty years to fully understand the lower part, and she had only touched the surface of the upper part.

The medicine she mentioned to Shitou that could improve one’s constitution was the only type she could produce in the previous part, and it was the worst of the entry-level medicines.

However, the “worst” she referred to was more than ten times stronger than the mild strength-enhancing medicines found in the latter part.

It should be known that in her past life, simply taking out a diluted strength-enhancing medicine from the latter part, which was the lowest quality, had attracted close attention from various parties.

Luckily, her intuition was sharp, and the moment she sensed danger, she immediately withdrew. And due to the concealment work done early on, others were unable to trace it back to her, or else things would have been unmanageable.

It was also then that she realized that no matter how rich one was, there was a trick to how some things should be revealed. Otherwise, she might have become another victim of “holding a jade becomes a crime.”

“But no matter how precious those herbs are, they are not as valuable as the finished pills I’ve made,” Lu Yun said confidently to Shitou, “You don’t know, in my last life…”

Lu Yun didn’t wait for Shitou to speak and spilled everything about the diluted strength medicine pills from her past life. She concluded by saying, “Although those medicines are not as strong as the ones I will prepare for you in the future, they have the advantage of being mild. In about ten to fifteen days, I’ll be able to take them myself, as well as give them to Dad and Mom.”

“The milder medicine you mentioned, is there only a little of it?” Shitou was intrigued.

“Not at all, I’ve made a lot of them, and making those is no longer difficult for me,” Lu Yun shook her head.

Desire shone in Shitou’s eyes, “If there’s enough, could I also try the milder ones first?”

“Are you sure?”

Lu Yun smiled at him, knowing him well enough to understand that if he knew the details, he would never have asked for such a thing. That’s why she hadn’t brought it up before.

“Mhm, since the potent medicines have to wait for so long, I could try the milder ones first. If there aren’t enough pills, then forget it,” Shitou earnestly voiced his own thoughts, as he was the one asking for a favor.

“There’s a characteristic for every type of pill I make, and that is the first time you take a pill of a certain type, the effect is the best. The difference could be as much as twenty to thirty percent,” Lu Yun explained patiently.

“So you mean, if I first take the milder pills, and then take the more potent ones later, the effect will be twenty to thirty percent less than if I had directly taken the potent ones?”

Shitou was astonished; he had thought the effects of both types would be cumulative, but it turned out this wasn’t the case. He didn’t believe that Lu Yun would deceive him; since she had shared her secrets with him, he felt a complete and almost instinctive trust in her that even he had yet to notice.

“Right, so it’s not that I’m unwilling to give you the medicine, but based on what I knew about you in my past life, I think if you knew this, you would definitely not choose to take the milder pills,” Lu Yun affirmed.

Lu Yun nodded, and recalling his previous snarky attitude, she couldn’t help but take a dig at him, “Dad’s requirements for martial prowess don’t need to be too high. He’s not like you, who sacrifices so much for others… so the milder pills should be enough for him to use. You’ll be the one to hand them to him when the time comes. To endure the full three months is truly not something everyone can withstand; I tried once and gave up. Even if you can’t last until the end, at least your overall physical strength will be much better than if you had only taken the milder pills.”

“I will endure it,” Shitou ignored Lu Yun’s sarcastic comment and focused solely on the determined glint shining in his eyes.
