Chapter 7: Everyone’s Shock, Apprentice Pharmacist!
Among the numerous apprentices, Lu Changsheng was not conspicuous.
Many apprentices didn't even recognize Lu Changsheng and didn't know his name.
This time, when they saw that Lu Changsheng was applying to become an apprentice pharmacist, they were genuinely surprised.
How long had it been?
At most, they had been in Miaoshou Garden for only about five months.
In five months, they couldn't even recognize all the characters, let alone become apprentice pharmacists.
You see, apprentice pharmacists needed to memorize the names, properties, and growth environments of at least hundreds of medicinal herbs, all of which had to be learned from books.
Without knowing how to read, how could one learn?
Even Zhang, the steward, frowned and asked with some doubt, "Are you sure you want to apply for the apprentice pharmacist assessment?"
"Sure."
"Do you have much confidence?"
Lu Changsheng thought for a moment, not daring to sound too confident, so he said conservatively, "Maybe about seventy to eighty percent."
