Zhu Qiuqi frowned slightly, "I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to do business with me personally. We will only provide drugs to Jishitang. If the young master wants to cooperate with Jishitang, the real decision-maker in Jishitang is not me."

Although Rong Xiuyun knew that Jishitang was a medical clinic under the name of Prince Zhou, Zhu Qiuqi said that he could only provide Jishitang with medicines, which made him ponder.

"I just heard from a young doctor that Madam Zhu is also the boss of Jishi Hall."

Since they are all bosses, why can't they be the master of Jishi Hall?

Zhu Qiuqi couldn't help sighing when she heard the words.

"If the young master really wants to talk about cooperation, I can take you to meet the real owner of Jishitang. But the young master wants the business of these pills. Do you want money to buy these pills directly or..."

Rong Xiuyun thought for a while, then took out a small box from his arms.

"I came all the way and didn't prepare anything valuable. This was just a meeting gift for Madam Zhu."

After hearing Rong Xiuyun's words, Zhu Qiuqi opened the box curiously.

When she saw the medicinal materials inside, Zhu Qiuqi's pupils shrank.

"This is a century-old ginseng..."

Rong Xiuyun nodded, "Exactly."

Zhu Qiuqi was startled and quickly pushed the box back.

"This item is too expensive, I can't accept it."

Rong Xiuyun's expression was very calm, "This may be valuable to Madam Zhu, but we have a lot of it."

Zhu Qiuqi was stunned, "Where is the young master from?"

Rong Xiuyun opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it slightly, "I'm coming from the border of Dazhou, close to the land of Baiyue."

Zhu Qiuqi felt relieved after hearing this.

"If the young master really wants to do business with this pill, I have a suggestion."

"Madam, please speak."

"I wonder if Young Master can use this medicinal material in exchange. The medicinal materials here are very scarce. Even if we grow them individually, they are not as good as the medicinal materials in Baiyue Land."

Rong Xiuyun raised her eyebrows, but she didn't expect Zhu Qiuqi to react so quickly.However, he did not refuse directly. After all, except for the area near Dazhou where food was grown, the rest of Baiyue grew medicinal herbs.

It would indeed be a good thing if he could really be honest with Dazhou Jishitang about this business.

"Now I won't hide it from Madam Zhu. We do have many people growing medicinal herbs, and the growth of medicinal herbs is indeed much better than that of Dazhou."

"How can Madam Zhu convince me that you can take so many of our medicinal materials?"

Zhu Qiuqi couldn't help but chuckled after hearing this.

"Since Mr. Rong has questions, why not come with me?"

Remembering that Zhu Qiuqi had just said that he was not the one who could make the decision in Jishi Hall, Rong Xiuyun narrowed her eyes and nodded in agreement.

When Rong Xiuyun and Wuyou got into the carriage, they noticed that the carriage was driving very smoothly on the road.

"The roads in Qingshui County are really different from other places."

Zhu Qiuqi was stunned for a moment and saw Rong Xiuyun's eyes were always on the road outside, but she didn't explain much.

"I heard Zixuan just said that Young Master Rong came here mainly to buy antidote pills? But someone in the family was poisoned?"

Zhu Qiuqi was actually a little confused. If someone was really poisoned, he wouldn't have bought so many antidote pills.

When mentioning this matter, Rong Xiuyun couldn't help but sigh.

If he had asked more questions when buying potatoes, he wouldn't have caused so much trouble to his father.

Even if he hadn't returned home, he still knew how the Li family would use this incident to ruin his father's reputation. Now he just hoped that the letter he sent could help his father.

"It's a long story. When I first came to Qingshui County half a month ago, I heard that there are high-yielding crops here. But we at the border of Dazhou have never heard of this."

"I went to the grain store and bought some potatoes and sweet potatoes. I also want the people on the other side of the border to grow such high-yielding crops so that they won't be unable to survive the winter."

"But I forgot what to pay attention to when the grain store boy had potatoes and sweet potatoes. The weather was getting colder and we couldn't plant any more potatoes and sweet potatoes, so my family stored them."

"It's a pity that the environment over the border is much more humid than here in Dazhou, and it has already sprouted after only being stored for more than ten days. If the family members accidentally ate the sprouted potatoes, my father was worried that this would cause damage to the border. The people no longer believe in potatoes and sweet potatoes, so I am anxious to buy more antidote pills from Jishitang this time."

When Zhu Qiuqi heard Rong Xiuyun mention potatoes, she vaguely guessed what was going on.

After all, this detoxification pill was originally made to understand the poison of potatoes.

"Originally, I was thinking of asking everyone to plant these potatoes and sweet potatoes as soon as possible before winter comes, but now it seems that this is no longer possible."

Seeing the worried look on Rong Xiuyun's eyebrows, Zhu Qiuqi knew that he was not lying.

People who care about the people are never treacherous or evil people.

“It’s not impossible to plant in winter.”

Qiu Qi's words made Rong Xiuyun couldn't help but cast his eyes on her.

"Congratulations to my wife..."

Although Rong Xiuyun felt strange, she did not ask.

Zhu Qiuqi has been in this era for so long that she has been suspected not once or twice.

However, she had already spoken out about potatoes and sweet potatoes, and now she is not afraid of Rong Xiuyun's suspicion.

"If it can be planted in a warm environment, it can be grown. However, it is difficult for ordinary people to do it. After all, it is not easy to create a land with a warm environment in winter."

"Just like the flowers in the greenhouse, why can they bloom in winter? Isn't it because the temperature in the greenhouse is just right?"

Rong Xiuyun's expression moved slightly, and her heart suddenly became enlightened.

"Mrs. Zhu is right, I am stupid."

Rong Xiuyun said it sincerely. Although they all knew about the greenhouse, he never thought of growing potatoes and sweet potatoes in the greenhouse.

Thinking of this, Rong Xiuyun became more and more curious about Zhu Qiuqi.

"Hey, this is the Zhang family's carriage. Is Qiu Qi back?"

"But why do I see that the person driving the car is not Qiu Qi?"

"Yeah, he looks like a man to me too."

"Is nothing going to happen to Qiu Qi?"

Everyone was talking a lot, and some even went to the village committee to find Sun Hong and Zhang Kui.

"Village chief, come out and take a look. There is a stranger driving Qiu Qi's carriage. Is something wrong with Qiu Qi?"

Because the carriage was a bit far from the village entrance, no one could see the people in the carriage clearly, and they were only worried that something might happen to Zhu Qiuqi.

The carriage was stopped when it arrived at the entrance of the village, and Wuyou hurriedly stopped the carriage.

Zhu Qiuqi couldn't help but sigh when she saw the situation outside.

Because she was riding in a carriage with Rong Xiuyun, a foreigner, she deliberately opened the carriage curtain to avoid suspicion. Unexpectedly, she made such a big fuss.
