Frankincense and myrrh alone are certainly not enough.

The Panax notoginseng discovered by accident the other day is now in use, and with Sophora flavescens and Poria cocos as auxiliary medicines...

In fact, it is not the main ingredient.

Talc and salt are the most important ingredients.

It would be even better with powdered tea and tea powder, and Sapindus and castor oil are also indispensable.

All these raw materials, after a series of processing, become toothpaste, which every modern person cannot live without.

After living in this era for a month, Yu Rong's patience has almost reached the limit. After three or two days, he can't bear to brush his teeth with salt alone. Later, he made homemade tooth powder, but he felt uncomfortable and troublesome to use. It is not as good as modern times Toothpaste is so convenient and easy to use.

So, the idea of ​​making modern toothpaste by hand took root in my heart.

In fact, if it wasn't for all kinds of busy work these two days, or if there was no frankincense and myrrh, he might have already started.

For ordinary people, the production of all-manual toothpaste is complicated, and the ratio of various ingredients is not sure. What's more, it is likely to be daunting in the first hurdle, the processing of raw materials. .

For Yu Rong, although it is the first time to make toothpaste by himself, the difficulty is not too difficult in his opinion, and the process is not too complicated...Compared with the production of various medicines, toothpaste is easier to handle!

First of all, clean up the tools, such as medicine cutting knife, pestle and mortar, casserole and medicine stove, so as not to contaminate the medicine materials during the production process.

After finishing the preparatory work, we start to process medicinal materials, such as Panax notoginseng, frankincense, etc. to remove impurities, slices that should be sliced, mashed that should be mashed, and some that need to be ground into powder.

Then light the bamboo charcoal, burn a large stove, pour water into the casserole, and pour in the crushed Sapindus chinensis.

—— Sapindus, commonly known as Youzhuzi, spreads all over the middle and lower reaches of the Qianjiang River, including the areas to the south.The saponins that everyone is familiar with are actually not popular with the common people in places like Xin'an Prefecture. Sapindus is the favorite, cleansing, washing, not too easy to use... This thing is also one of the main raw materials for making soap one.

Sapindus decocted juice, not to mention the cleaning and decontamination effects, the key is that it is a natural active agent.It should be noted that the active agent is one of the essential ingredients of modern toothpaste.

While boiling the Sapinberry liquid, Yu Rong began to process the most important part of toothpaste—tooth powder.

Speaking of which, the history of tooth powder is quite long. Rich people have made tooth powder with Sophora flavescens or Poria cocos for a long time, but the common people are not willing to be so extravagant, and salt is the most common... Naturally, salt is indispensable to make tooth powder.

But the main thing is talcum powder.Talc powder is bought directly from the pharmacy. It is made of kaolin clay fired from ceramics. It was used to brush teeth a long time ago, and it is also an important part of toothpaste in modern times.

In addition to talcum powder and salt, Yu Rong also added powdered powder and tea powder.Powdered powder is similar to a "harmless additive", which has no other effect, but to increase the friction of toothpaste; adding tea powder is more interesting. Tea contains alkali, which has antibacterial and bactericidal effects, and because it contains a small amount of fluorine compounds , play a certain role in the prevention and treatment of dental caries.

After the tooth powder is ground and finely ground, the sapindus liquid is also boiled, filter out the dregs of the medicine, and put it in a cool place to cool.

The next step is the most troublesome.

First, frankincense and myrrh are processed, put in a medicine furnace and boiled until they melt into a gelatinous substance.

At this time, refer to the traditional method of making ointment, steam the medicinal materials such as Sanqi, and spread the ointment.

After the medicinal paste is mixed with the frankincense and myrrh gum, it must be stirred continuously to mix well.

Finally, the sapinberry liquid, synthetic ointment and tooth powder are prepared into a thick paste, and a little castor oil is not forgotten during the preparation process.Castor oil is a natural binder and wetting agent to enhance the viscosity of the paste, retain moisture and maintain the fluidity of the paste...

As a result, Yu's exclusive formula, pure natural, fully handmade traditional Chinese medicine toothpaste has been successfully released!

It's quite simple to say, and it seems to be very easy to make. In fact, when everything is done, the sun has already moved from east to west unconsciously.

The crystal clear paste, somewhat like old honey, is filled with porcelain pots, and the yellowish-yellow is a little light brown, against the azure glaze color. At first glance, it looks like a work of art, full of beauty. Inexplicably, the index finger moved.

The young doctor brought chopsticks, picked out a bit of toothpaste and sniffed it, then dipped the chopsticks on the tip of his tongue... Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.

The smell of medicine is a little heavy, but there is no doubt that the toothpaste is very successful.

However, after all, this is the first time to independently make ointment, even if the toothpaste is not real medicine, Yu Rong has a professional and rigorous attitude, and spares no expense to have the system appraise it, so that he can accurately evaluate the level of his preparation...

The result did not disappoint him.Although there are flaws, it is above the standard.

The young doctor smiled to himself.

Ignoring the little hunger in his belly, he took advantage of the excitement and got busy again, cleaning up the preparation tools again.

Yu Rong is going to make toothpaste again.With the previous experience, the technique should be more proficient, and it must be successfully developed before dark.

The difference from the previous one is that this time he chose different raw materials - Shicai's frankincense notoginseng toothpaste, which is definitely considered a luxury in this era - as a daily necessities, toothpaste should be something that ordinary people can afford, Also considering the path of small profits but quick turnover, it is not appropriate to use expensive medicinal materials as raw materials.

Panax notoginseng is replaced by honeysuckle, and flavescens and poria are replaced by mint, dandelion and purslane.There is no need to add myrrh, the frankincense can be replaced with easily available rosin, and the cost of tooth powder and castor oil is not high, so it is no problem to use the same.

After choosing these most common herbal medicines, the "worth" of toothpaste dropped to the lowest in an instant, and it lost its "luxury" attire, becoming an "affordable" product that most people can afford.

After being appraised by the system, there is still room for improvement, but the scoring for techniques and craftsmanship has slightly improved.

By this time, Yu Rong no longer felt that little bit of uncertainty, and she was full of confidence in addition to her determination.Once I have a clear understanding of my own level, I will make similar ointments in the future, and I don’t have to find the system for identification every time before I dare to use it.

it's getting dark.

The young doctor cleaned the tools and utensils, tidied up the temporary workbench, and after hastily feeding the three cats, he took a few dried persimmons and ate them absent-mindedly for dinner, focusing on the system.

As I said before, Yu Rong thought of the good idea of ​​earning contribution points in the mall, but he didn’t actually mean selling toothpaste or the like... After all, it is all handmade, and in reality, there must be at least a small-scale production workshop in order to truly Make small profits but quick turnover.

It is a small workshop, and its establishment and operation cannot be realized in a day or two.

For Yu Rong, who was in urgent need of contribution, he couldn't wait any longer.

So find another way.

Since the prices of seeds, blueprints and other commodities in the system mall are generally high, can it be judged that among the millions of hosts, there should be many who are in a similar situation to him. living comfortably without anybody's help".

In this way, instead of simply "selling medicine", selling videos of "preparation tutorials" may be a better marketing method-"teaching a man to fish is worse than giving him a fish"!

Although there are many transactions of various secret recipes in the mall, how can the video of the secret recipe be intuitive and detailed?Not to mention, not everyone knows what plants can be used for what medicine.

Yu Rong specially selected some daily necessities or standing medicines that people without medical background, such as toothpaste, can make by themselves under the condition of "hands-on" teaching, and made them into videos.

Video recording is not a problem, with a little contribution in the virtual space, everything will be a matter of course.

The recorded video can be edited and modified. There is a system. Yu Rong, who has never made a video before, can use his "consciousness" to edit it quite easily after thinking about it.

Afterwards, the video is directly published on the omnipotent system mall—similar to the paid video on the Internet, a part of it is played for free, and if you want to continue watching at key places, you must pay a contribution.

In view of Yu Rong's full confidence in the videos he made, in order to let other hosts spend money with peace of mind, he carried out "system certification"... For a long-term plan, a [-]% discount on the certification fee is a necessary investment, so that it is convenient to build a reputation and improve the reputation as soon as possible Spend.

The video comes first, and the finished product should still be sold.

It is a fortune to make a fortune. For some local tyrants who are not bad at contributing, they are probably more willing to buy toothpaste than to make toothpaste by themselves!

The two kinds of toothpaste made by Yu Rong are both very generous, and he alone will need to use it for a year or two... If the storage compartment is not placed, most of the toothpaste will deteriorate before it is used up.So the two types of toothpaste, put half a bowl of each, and put them in the mall for trial sales.

The rest, apart from saving a little for his own use, is going to be handed over to Lin Sange. With the business sense of the other party, maybe he can use the toothpaste as an opportunity to open up a brand new market... Even if the forecast is wrong and the sales are not good, Yu Rong is not worried. Anyway, if you have craftsmanship, why worry about starving yourself to death?

A few days later, Lin Sange came back to the village for a ten-day break and learned of Yu Rong's plan. After personally trying the toothpaste's efficacy, he was ecstatic. Hurry back to Xiaoyanjing.

Yu Rong dissuaded it for no other reason. After making toothpaste for several days in a row, he was worried that it would not be easy to preserve if he made too much, so he thought about making bath beans again.

Compared with developing toothpaste, bath beans are more handy to make.

Nowadays, the prices of soap and bath beans on the market are too high, not entirely because of the expensive raw materials and high cost, but because of the slow speed of manual production, the small quantity, and the shortage of supply.Those who make bath beans are all hidden, and they don't want people to know the recipe, so they can't mass-produce them.

The reason why Yu Rong makes bath beans is only for his own use. The main consideration is that since he has got rid of Lin Sange as a broker, the more types of goods he can buy and sell, the better... But the time is short and there is not enough space. Toothpaste and bath beans Dou didn't do much, let's make a name for himself first...

The toothpaste of Sanciyu is packed in dozens of medicine bottles in bulk and divided into three grades. The frankincense notoginseng toothpaste is the least and the most precious, the mint and honeysuckle toothpaste has the most quantity and the cheapest price, and the spearmint toothpaste is in between. Belongs to "light luxury" goods.

20 yuan medicated soap, the same size, close to the thickness of a knuckle, square enough to be held in the palm of the hand.There are some differences in formula, different effects, and different fragrances, so they are also divided into grades.

In view of his own job as a doctor, in order not to appear "not doing his job properly", Yu Rong temporarily made some music

The most famous Divine Comedy.Divine Comedy is relatively quick to prepare, and it is a universally applicable health medicine for harmonizing the spleen and stomach. It should be a good choice to expand the market... Doctors sell medicines, and the name is justified.

With these three things in hand, Lin Sange left Qinglian and returned to Yanzhou full of ambition.

After that, Yu Rong decided to go out for a few days.

The cats were sent to the old man’s house and asked to take care of them. The construction of the new house is on the right track, so there is no need to worry. So take advantage of this spare time, before winter really enters, and follow the earlier plan to dig in the mountains herbs.

Collecting herbs by myself is not only to save the money to buy medicines, but also to find better medicinal materials.

As far as Yu Rong is concerned, there are many Chinese medicinal materials that he is familiar with, but their medicinal value has not been discovered in this era. Naturally, there is no way to go to the pharmacy to buy them, and he can only find them by himself.

A big medicine basket, several sacks, medicine sickle and hoe are indispensable, these are the most basic outfits.

Self-defense weapons are indispensable, the dagger is in the storage compartment, but it is mainly used to defend against people, and it is not easy to use when encountering wild animals.

Different from modern society, many wild animals are almost extinct. In Min Country, even in the not-so-high-mountain areas like Da'e Mountain, there are rumors of ferocious beasts coming in and out from time to time.

I can only continue to use my hands-on ability. I made two one-handed crossbows by myself, hung them on the quiver, carried one with me, and kept the other as a spare. I put it in the storage compartment together with more arrows, just in case.

Going deep into the Great Evil Mountain, it is impossible to go back and forth in one day, and you must prepare some clothes and daily necessities...

Once you're all set up, it's time to go.

-

The wind is violent and the rain is urgent.

Wearing a coir raincoat and carrying a basket full of medicinal herbs, the young doctor trudged through the mountains and forests with one foot deep and one foot shallow, stepping on the mud.

Originally, the journey was smooth and fruitful, and he was thinking of going back to the village, but unexpectedly, there was a strong wind and heavy rain, so he had to turn back to the mountain...

There is a cave in the mountain, and a wooden house is built in the cave, which is used for hunters and woodcutters to shelter from wind and rain or occasionally to stay overnight.In the past few nights, Yu Rong spent the night in the wooden house in the cave.

Fortunately, I didn't go far, and in less than a quarter of an hour, despite the wind and rain, I arrived in front of the cave... Seeing the cabin approaching, I subconsciously quickened my pace, and didn't even bother to check when I heard the system prompt—— Probably another news from the mall that the item was sold out.

Yu Rong reached out and pushed open the closed wooden door.

But don't guard against...

The cold light appeared in shock, piercing through Shen Mi, and a sharp sword stabbed straight at his face.
