Chapter 323 You are so lenient
The person who came reported to Shen Ruolan: "Manager Lu went to see General Su. General Su said that it was the Luo family in Xia Guoan Shuicheng who suddenly stopped selling pork to Beiming. That's why the pork supply in Cangling City suddenly stopped."
When Shen Ruolan heard this, there was nothing she didn't understand. It was simply that she had taken away all the food from Beinan Mountain, and the people of the Luo family were unhappy.
When Shen Ruolan thought of this, she called out to Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, come out for a moment."
Ji Ning came out of the kitchen and said, "Master, do you have any instructions?"
Shen Ruolan said to Ji Ning: "Go and invite the head of Beinan Mountain over."
"Yes," Ji Ning said, and quickly ran towards the courtyard of the guest room.
Soon, the head of Beinan Mountain came over and asked Shen Ruolan, "Village leader, are you looking for me?"
Shen Ruolan looked at him and asked, "How many pigs do you have in your village?"
She only took his food and didn't touch any of his livestock.
When the head of the family heard Shen Ruolan asking about livestock, he didn't know what she was going to do. He was silent for a moment and said to her, "To answer the village chief, there are nearly a hundred heads of livestock, big and small."
They don't sell meat in the mountains, and they basically raise pigs for their own consumption, so they don't raise many.
When Shen Ruolan heard that there were about a hundred pigs, she looked at him and said, "Sell all these pigs to me. I'll give you the same price as the city."
When the head of the family heard that Shen Ruolan wanted to buy pigs, he was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said to Shen Ruolan: "Master Shen, there are probably only about fifty or sixty pigs that can be slaughtered."
Shen Ruolan nodded and said, "I know. Although it's not much, it's enough for me to deal with the current difficulties."
Sixty heads are enough to last her small restaurant for several months, but the weather is a bit hot now, making it difficult to preserve them.
However, this did not pose a problem for her. She could simply salt and smoke the pork slaughtered every day and store it for three to five days without any problem.
Her restaurant consumes an average of about 40 kilograms of pork every day. She eats up an entire pig before it’s even smoked, and she is not afraid of it going bad.
After hearing what Shen Ruolan said, the head of the village had no choice but to nod and agree: "Okay, the village chief will do it."
Since Shen Ruolan wanted to buy it with money, he might as well sell it to her generously. It was better than her snatching it from him.
The boss felt heartbroken when he thought about how Shen Ruolan had taken away all his hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain without leaving a single grain.
Seeing that the boss agreed, Shen Ruolan asked Ji Ning to fetch fifty taels of silver and handed it to him, saying, "This is a fifty tael deposit. Take it first. After you sell all your pigs, I will check the account with you carefully and refund you any excess or make up for any shortfall."
"Yes, village chief." The leader took the silver and replied with his head down.
"Go down. I'll find you later if I need anything." After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she said to the people who came back from Cang Ling City, "Go back and stay first. Gather here early tomorrow morning and go to Beinan Mountain with everyone else to drive the pigs to Cang Ling City."
"Yes, village chief." After the man finished speaking, he turned and left.
But before he had taken a few steps, he turned back and said to Shen Ruolan, "By the way, Village Chief, when I came back, I saw a large group of people coming from outside the mountain towards our Fu Village. You have to be careful."
"Okay, I understand." Shen Ruolan said.
When the visitor saw that his village chief knew about it, he left with peace of mind.
Shen Qi waited until there was no one in the yard before he asked his granddaughter, "Lan'er, who do you think these people could be?"
Shen Ruolan turned around and said to her grandfather, "Grandpa, now that everyone has finished the autumn harvest, if I'm not mistaken, everyone should be coming to me for medical treatment."
Shen Qi was relieved to hear that she was here to see a doctor. He looked at his granddaughter and said, "If she is really here to see a doctor, that's good. It's a good opportunity for your cousins to practice with her."
"Okay." Shen Ruolan had no objection to what her grandfather said.
In the following days, things were exactly as Shen Ruolan had expected. After the autumn harvest, ordinary people came to her with food on their backs for medical treatment. At this time, the two medicine boys given to her by Jiang Dichen also arrived.
Shen Ruolan asked two medicine boys to take the family members who came to see the doctor or the villagers to the mountain to collect herbs every day. After coming down the mountain, she found a few more flexible girls and boys to teach them how to prepare medicinal materials.
After Shen Ruolan's repeated efforts, two months later, her Fuzhai finally welcomed its first pharmacy. People who came to see her for medical treatment no longer had to worry about getting medicine.
From then on, her reputation became so famous that word spread from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred. Eventually, people from the surrounding countries got to know her, and all the sick people came to see her for treatment.
As Shen Ruolan became more and more famous, she also harvested a lot of food and medicinal herbs from all directions, which made her originally deserted Xiaofu Village unexpectedly become very lively.
In the blink of an eye, a year passed and Shen Ruolan welcomed her second autumn harvest.
However, this year's autumn harvest is busier than last year. This year, she has about 1,000 acres of land in Beinan Mountain, and the area in Fuzhai Mountain has increased to 3,000 acres.
Excluding the original farmland in Fuzhai Village, the total area increased to about one thousand acres. Because the flat land in the village had been reclaimed, most of the villagers were sent to the inner mountains by her.
That day, she helped Jiang Qing finish his last injection and said, "Your Highness, I can only treat your illness to this point. After today, you can leave."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she looked at him and paused, then continued, "After you go back, you must continue to practice the disease-eliminating exercises every day. Don't get too happy or too angry. It's best to keep a good mood every day."
"By the way, just in case, you'd better not have sex in the next year." After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she hesitated for a long time and added another sentence.
She didn't want to say it at first, but when she thought about the many women in the Prince's Mansion, she was afraid that he would get anxious and have a seizure as soon as he returned, and then she would be in trouble.
Jiang Qing looked at the woman who reminded him not to have sex. He couldn't help but twitch his lips and said, "You are really nosy."
The two have been together for a year. Normally, as long as Jiang Qing doesn't go too far, Shen Ruolan will speak to him nicely.
Shen Ruolan looked up and rolled her eyes at him, then said unhappily, "Who cares about you? As a doctor, I am just reminding you of some precautions."
After she finished speaking, she paused and continued, "Otherwise, if you spend a year here to treat your illness and die within a few days after returning, I, Shen Ruolan, cannot bear that responsibility."
In the past year, she has admitted many patients with difficult and complicated diseases, and many of them have recovered and returned home. Only Jiang Qing's condition is more complicated.
Duan Ye's body had recovered three months ago, and he was now busy preparing for his and Su Qianqian's wedding.
After Jiang Qing heard Shen Ruolan's words, he suddenly raised his head and said to her with an ambiguous look: "Since you are so afraid of death, why don't you come back to the capital with me and take care of my food, clothing, housing and transportation?"
