Chapter 182 Lonely Ghost
Chu Xu then remembered and said: "For the border war, the military camp needs a lot of medicinal materials. You can sell the medicinal materials to the military camp."
Shang Wan thought he was going to say something. Hearing this, he chuckled and said, "A Nian, there are dedicated people to purchase the medicinal materials in the military camp, and there are also fixed partners, and they generally do not change."
Medicinal materials involve the life and death of soldiers. Those who choose to cooperate are trustworthy medicinal material merchants. There is a fixed cooperation model. Unless there are major mistakes, they will generally not be changed.
Chu Xu raised his chin and said confidently, "With me here, I can convince my father and brother."
The child looked serious and really wanted to help.
Shang Wan smiled and reached out to rub his head, with a gentle voice, "We have agreed on the conditions to save you and protect you, you don't need to do any more."
"No." Chu Xu shook his head, "It's not a condition."
He did want to help, but he also wanted to keep more wounded soldiers alive.
The white-bearded doctor said that good medicinal materials are hard to come by.
He tilted his head and thought for a while, then said seriously: "The military camp also needs good medicinal materials. If you don't sell medicinal materials, you can also sell ointments. The ointment you used for me is very good. If it can be sold to the military camp, it can save many injuries. Soldier."
The wound on his back was so serious that it healed very quickly after applying ointment. It was much more effective than the custom-made golden sore medicine in the military camp.
If all wounded soldiers could use such a good ointment, their injuries would heal quickly and not relapse, and many more people would survive.
Selling ointment?
Shang Wan was stunned. She had never thought of selling the ointment to the military camp.
The demand for ointment in the military camp was indeed high, but after thinking about it for a while, she felt that this method was not feasible.
She thought that the price of the ointment was not low, and the customers she targeted were wealthy people.
According to the price of ten taels of silver per box, it is impossible for the military camp to purchase in large quantities. If it is only a small amount, it is better to cooperate with a medical clinic and take less risks.
If it is sold at a reduced price, the same price as ordinary ointments, it will not only disrupt the market, but Shang Wan will also suffer losses.
Injuries on the battlefield are common, and more ointments are needed. If you purchase large quantities from Shang Wan at a low price, the spiritual spring water will be exhausted, and herbal cultivation will definitely be affected. The gain will not be worth the loss.
If she had a rich family, she would be squandering it. She has the capital, but she is still in the early stages and cannot afford to squander it.
If you are successful, you can help the world; if you are poor, you can only take care of yourself.
She is really poor now.
You can not make money, but you can't repay it.
Moreover, people's hearts are divided between people's stomachs. Just because the child Chu Xu is stupid and sweet doesn't mean that his family is stupid and sweet. What if someone uses their power to threaten her to hand over the so-called ancestral secret recipe?
Don’t talk about kindness, any friendship is useless in the face of absolute interests.
Thinking about it all, selling the ointment to the military camp was unnecessary at the right time and the right place and no one occupied it. It was completely unnecessary.
After making a decision in his heart, Shang Wan met the child's expectant eyes. He couldn't bear to blow him, so he stretched out his hand and purred, "We'll talk about this after the person who picks you up arrives."
——Find a way to fool him.
Chu Xu thought Shang Wan had agreed, and a bright smile immediately appeared on his face.
The child, who felt that he had accomplished something big, was in a very good mood, so he hugged Yuanyuan and went to play on the swing under the tree.
Shang Wan sighed secretly and winked at Xiaohuan.
Xiaohuan understood and asked Shang Wan to help pack up the cloth and silk threads he bought. He took Shang Wan's arm and went back to the room together.
The door creaked shut, and the two sat down on the kang.
Xiaohuan picked up the small teapot on the Kang table, poured a cup of herbal tea, and placed it next to Shang Wan. Shang Wan held the teacup and waited for Xiaohuan to speak.
Xiaohuan bit her lip and looked at Shang Wan again and again, her eyes tangled and her expression hesitant.
Shang Wan's limited patience was exhausted little by little. He knocked on the table with his fingers and urged: "Hurry up and tell me, if the sky falls, I will still hold it up."
Xiaohuan: "Sister, please promise me first that you will never leave no matter what I say."
Shang Wan thought to himself, it sounded serious. Could it be that the person coming was really an enemy?
She said seriously: "You are all here, where can I go? Don't worry so much, just tell me what you know. In the worst case, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth."
Hearing this, Xiao Huan seemed to have finally made up her mind. She adjusted her sitting posture to sit more upright, and spoke slowly and in a cautious tone, "Sister, where did you... come from?"
Shang Wan: "!"
Good guy, your vest is coming off right now?
Because I was too surprised and had no time to manage my expression, a trace of it leaked out of my expression.
Xiaohuan stared at Shang Wan without blinking, and hurriedly promised, "Sister, don't worry, I won't tell anyone else, not even my brother-in-law. Are you..."
"Yes." Shang Wan interrupted her and simply admitted.
Anyway, they have all been guessed. After these days of contact, she also knows Xiaohuan's temperament, and there is no point in hiding it.
Shang Wan admitted it simply, which actually frightened Xiao Huan.
Even though she was mentally prepared, she still covered her mouth in surprise, worried that she would be too excited and cry out.
Shang Wan stared at her curiously: "How did you find out?"
It is true that she pretended to be very careless, but even the fox Lu Chengjing only guessed that she had somehow replaced the original Shang Wan, and had never thought about ghosts and spirits. How could Xiao Huan guess so accurately?
Xiaohuan calmed down and whispered: "After the young lady hit her head, Shitou found a cart. When I helped to move the young lady onto the cart, I found that the young lady was out of breath."
Shang Wan: "..."
It is indeed suspicious that a person who is out of breath suddenly pretends to be dead.
"Then what?"
"When you woke up later, I thought I had made a mistake, but -"
Xiaohuan paused and looked at Shang Wan without saying anything, "I am the young madam's personal maid, and I know the young madam's affairs best. The young madam hates rough warriors the most, and there is no way she can practice martial arts and be so good at it. "
Shang Wan: "...What if I pretend to hate warriors?"
"Impossible." Xiaohuan shook her head firmly, "Your attitude towards brother-in-law and Yuanyuan is also different. The previous young lady was very afraid of the third young master, and even said that the third young master was a monster. If the third young master is imprisoned, the young lady will be the most What he might do is to leave us and run away immediately, instead of trying to find a way to rescue the third young master and treat his injuries. "
"Also, there are many things that you know that my wife doesn't know, and your temperament is so different that you don't look like the same person at all."
Shang Wan: "..."
Well, I dare say she was exposed from the beginning.
She couldn't help but look at Xiaohuan with admiration. This girl was surprisingly calm. If she hadn't pressed him, Xiaohuan would have kept this matter in her stomach forever and never said it out loud for the rest of her life.
Shang Wan teased her, "You say I'm a lonely ghost, so aren't you afraid that I'll do something bad to you?"
"No." Xiaohuan's eyes were firm, and there was even a smile in his eyes, "Even if you are a lonely ghost, you are still a good ghost. Without you, my brother-in-law has been escorted to the capital to be beheaded. Shitou and Yuanyuan and I still don't know How can we live on? We may starve to death. How can we have such a good life now?”
