Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Lu Xiaofo opened the letter sent by Bai Shanzhu, and was taken aback when he saw the Qiuli paste prescription attached.

Mrs. Lu stepped forward, "What's the matter?"

Lu Xiaofo handed her the prescription, and said with a smile, "It was sent by Zhishan, but they gave us a big gift."

Mrs. Lu took a look, "What's the use of this?"

"It's very useful," Lu Xiaofo said, "Prepare some money, and I'll ask the steward to find a drug dealer in the city."

He smiled and said: "You just treat it as an extra income for the family."

But it is more than just an income. If this business is done well, it will not only solve the pears accumulated in the village now, but also plant them in the nearby villages in the future, which will be an extra income for many people.

Mrs. Lu worried: "It's just a prescription, don't say whether we can make it, can it really be sold after we make it?"

How can business be so easy to do? Their family has never been in the medicine business.

Lu Xiaofo said with a smile: "If someone else gave the prescription, I would naturally have to think about it, but it was given by Zhou Man. As long as you let the word out, most people will come to ask for it. Don't worry, this pear paste will not worry about selling."

Mrs. Lu just left.

Lu Xiaofo guessed right, the pear ointment hadn't been made yet, the stewards of the governor's mansion just asked a few drug dealers to let him know, and there was a prescription for the ointment written by Zhou Man himself in Lu's governor's hand, so they expressed their interest one after another.

After privately finding out that Lu Xiaofo and Bai Shan used to be classmates, some time ago Bai Shan and Zhou Man appeared in Lingnan, and they were entertained by Governor Lu in Liuzhou, so the drug dealers believed even more that the prescription was written by Zhou Man.

Several people stopped hesitating, and came to talk to the manager of the Lu family about the pear cream business.

Mrs. Lu, who had been carrying her heart all the time, let out a sigh of relief when she saw this, and hurriedly asked people to prepare the workshop and buy pears.

Although Ah Shan and the others were dubious about Zhou Man's words, they went up the mountain to tidy up the messy orchard.

After waiting for a few days and no one came, just when he was about to be disappointed, a steward who claimed to be the governor's mansion drove a group of people to look for them, and immediately wanted to buy their pears.

The steward said: "Two cents a catty, as long as it's good, we want as much as you have."

Ah Shan's eyes lit up, he pushed aside the crowd and asked, "Did Mrs. Zhou ask you to come?"

"What Mrs. Zhou, that's Mrs. Zhou," the steward said, "Do you know who Mrs. Zhou is? It was a former order of the Imperial Medical Office, and she is the one who opened the medical offices all over Dajin."

The villagers were amazed, Ah Shan's father repented and said: "Oh, I have neglected the distinguished guest."

The steward said, "Are you selling this pear? Our master is still waiting for pears to make pear paste."

"Sell, sell, sell for two cents per catty."

This price was also promised by the original merchants when they encouraged them to plant pear trees.

After the pear paste was made, it was quickly sent to various parts of Dajin through the hands of drug dealers in Liuzhou.

Two months later, when it was the coldest time in Chang'an, a jar of pear paste was bought in the palace.

Some time ago, the emperor took people out hunting, and when he came back he had a little cough. The imperial doctor prescribed medicine. The emperor drank it for two days. Although he was much better, he still coughed twice from time to time, so the people below offered this jar pear paste.

The emperor glanced at the pear paste that Eunuch Wu brought up, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this what Zhou Man made in Liuzhou?"

"Yes," Eunuch Wu said with a bow and a smile, "People say that this pear ointment is good. Children don't like to take medicine when they are sick. This pear ointment is sweet. They like to drink two spoonfuls of it."

The emperor snorted, "Good medicine tastes bitter, how useful is this sweet pear paste?"

But still ate.

However, "Do I still need to buy the prescriptions that I have eaten Zhou Man from outside? It is not too troublesome to check layer by layer. Let the Tai Hospital do some storage by itself. If the queen, prince and princess need it, they can go directly from the Tai Hospital. Take."

Eunuch Wu laughed and said: "I heard that this is the prescription that the princess gave to Inspector Lu of Liuzhou. It is brand new, and it is a little different from the pear cream that is out there now."

The emperor looked at Eunuch Wu quietly.

Eunuch Wu understood it at a glance, bowed in response, and withdrew to find Zheng Yuanzheng of Tai Hospital.

Zheng Yuanzheng: "What do you want?"

"Fangzi, the prescription of Qiuli Paste," Eunuch Wu whispered, "How can His Majesty import the finished products from outside? Naturally, it is safe for the Tai Hospital to do it by itself."

He said: "Zheng Yuanzheng, you have a very close relationship with the princess, this prescription..."

Zheng Yuanzheng: ...Thank you, it's not him who has a close relationship with Zhou Man, but his nephew.

He had a headache, but he still complied, "Please tell Your Majesty, I can give it a try."

After going back, Zheng Yuanzheng did not look for Zheng Gu, but wrote a letter to Zhou Man after thinking about it.

When Zhou Man received the letter, she was writing a letter to Yang Heshu.

After several months of wandering and investigation, she circled a few lands in Lingnan that are suitable for planting medicinal materials, and the specific people from the medical department came down to investigate.

Zhou Man asked Yang Heshu, do you need advice from her and Zheng Shuling?

With her coming forward, it is easier for Yang Heshu, the superior official, to gain the support and trust of the Imperial Medical Administration.

After all, Lingnan is too far away from the Central Plains. Even Zhou Man, the former decree, cannot guarantee that the officials of the Imperial Medical Administration will agree to set up the medicine nursery in Lingnan.

As a result, before the letter to Yang Heshu was sent, the letter from Imperial Physician Zheng arrived first.

Zhou Man took a look at it, clicked his tongue twice, then unfolded a piece of white paper and wrote down the prescription of the pear cream.

After thinking about it, she wrote a letter to Imperial Physician Zheng, but she did not mention Yang Heshu's entrustment to her. Instead, she wrote that she lived in Lingnan and found that the climate and soil here are very suitable for growing medicinal materials. Now Dajin lacks medicinal materials. Has the Department thought about setting up medicine gardens in Lingnan to grow medicines?

There are some medicinal materials that can only be grown in the south of the Five Ridges, such as Panax notoginseng, which is currently in short supply.

Zhou Man wrote a long letter to Imperial Physician Zheng before closing it. Before he could seal it, Bai Shan called outside, "Ziqian, hurry up, I'll be waiting for you."

Zhou Man hurriedly stuffed the letter into the envelope and took it out, handed it to the guard and said: "Seal it and send it back to the capital."

She trotted out, everyone's luggage was ready, Bai Shan was waiting for her by the side of the car, and when she saw her coming out, he reached out to help her into the car, "Isn't the letter to Brother Yang already written?"

"I just remembered that the three children are all in the capital for the New Year. I entrusted Brother Yang to help take care of them. Who knew that the letter from Imperial Physician Zheng just arrived, so I replied to him."

Zhou Man got into the car, turned around but raised the curtain to look out, and asked excitedly, "Lu Xiaofo promised us?"

Bai Shan responded, and said with a smile: "We have helped him a lot, so naturally he will help us."

He said: "The person he sent has arrived, we will meet at the gate of the city and go directly to the Liaozi Department."

There were only Zhou Man and Bai Shan in this car, so Zhou Man put down the curtain and asked in a low voice, "Are there really elephants in the Liaozi Department?"
