Li Shojing gritted his teeth secretly when he heard three thousand taels of medicine.

Yesterday, a mask earned him two thousand taels of silver. Today, a course of medicine will cost him another three thousand taels? This girl had the nerve to say that she would sell it to him at the original price, which was too deceptive.

Yan Shu glanced at him, knowing that Li Shoujing had already started scolding her in his heart.

"Master Li, if you think the price is too expensive, I suggest you find another doctor to take a look. There are two highly respected doctors nearby, right?"

Doctor Qin said: "Mrs. Jiang is joking. If it is tuberculosis, there is nothing I can do."

Dr. Heng also nodded in agreement: "Our medical skills are far inferior to Mrs. Jiang. If Mr. Li's disease can be cured, I would like to discuss it with Mrs. Jiang."

The attitude of the two men was obvious, they couldn't cure it at all.

Li Shoujing was heartbroken and no longer worried about the money. He smiled hurriedly and took out a wad of silver notes from his sleeve.

"I went out in a hurry, so I only brought five thousand taels of silver notes with me. I spent two thousand taels yesterday to buy masks, and the remaining three thousand taels are here. Miss Yan, please prescribe a course of medicine for me first. When I get back to Gucheng, I will prepare the remaining six thousand taels as soon as possible to buy the remaining two courses of treatment."

Yan Shu smiled and said, "Don't worry now. I will prepare the medicine you need tomorrow and you can pay me for it."

"Then there's Mrs. Lao Jiang." Even though he knew he was being slaughtered, there was nothing he could do.

If the nine thousand taels of silver could be spent to cure his illness, that would be fine. If not, he would have to give this girl some color.

Doctor Qin and Doctor Heng were very curious about how Yan Shu treated tuberculosis, so they started asking each other one by one.

This disease is mainly treated with Western medicine and sterilization. It was inconvenient for Yan Shu to tell them in detail, so he could only refuse to reveal too much to them on the grounds of a secret recipe.

The two old men were a little disappointed after hearing this, but as doctors, they could also understand the reason why the secret recipe should not be passed on to others.

After Jiang Ci left the inn, he rode his horse to a secluded alley. He got off his horse and walked to the door of a house, raising his hand to knock on the door.

The people inside quickly opened the door, and it was Huan Ying and others who came.

Seeing Jiang Ci, all the Xuanzong disciples immediately bowed to him.

Jiang Ci walked straight into the courtyard.

"Is that batch of food ready?"

Huanying said: "We are ready. The guards at the North City Gate have been replaced by our people. We can leave the city after dark. Ying Qi Fei Ge sent a message, saying that the group of people rescued in Baihua Town last time were also Outside the city, they recognized Ying Qi and the others, and when they learned that we were recruiting troops, these boys took the initiative to join us, and they helped a lot outside the city in the past two days."

Jiang Ci pondered for a moment: "Choose some people with good character to focus on training."

"Subordinates take orders!"

"Sir, today Wuming sent someone to send a message back, saying that the whereabouts of the shopkeeper had been discovered in Gucheng. He was currently in the Baishan Hall in Gucheng. During this period, a group of people frequently met the shopkeeper from time to time. Wuming Ming said that those people look very much like the Rong Di people, Wu Ming lives in northern Xinjiang all year round, and he has the most contact with the Rong Di people, so he should not be mistaken."

Jiang Ci had already guessed who was the mastermind behind the plague.

"It seems that the lesson from Cangtong County didn't make her remember anything."

Huanying immediately understood who the "she" Jiang Ci was referring to.

"This Princess Rong Dijiu is still poisoned by us. She actually sneaked into Sui Dynasty to cause trouble again. We really need to teach her a lesson this time."

Jiang Ci pondered for a moment: "Tuoba Yan should be in Gucheng at this time. Let Wu Ming keep an eye on those people and report back immediately once Tuoba Yan's whereabouts are discovered."

"Yes!"

"Sir, why didn't Miss Yan come back with you?"

"She is assisting Liu Bin in controlling the plague in Lingquan Town at the inn. You send two people to the inn to protect her secretly."

"Yes!"

noon ten

Liu Bin personally led a team of people, including more than 20 doctors and more than 300 elite soldiers, to the south gate of Lingquan Town.

Li Shojing got the news and came to wait outside the city gate in advance.

Liu Bin was dressed in a black brocade robe and a dark cloak. Although he was middle-aged, he was still majestic and handsome.

"What's the situation in the city now?"

Li Shojing respectfully replied: "Reporting to Lord Marquis, we have transported a group of the most seriously ill patients in the city to the Lingquan Town Station for treatment. Now Mrs. Jiang, Doctor Qin, and Doctor Heng are doing their best to treat them."

Liu Bin nodded: "These twenty doctors and three hundred elite soldiers will follow you into the city. Everything will be subject to Mrs. Jiang's arrangements."

"Your Majesty, take your orders!"

Late night

Lingquan Town was extremely quiet, and a convoy of vehicles slowly drove towards the north gate in the heavy snow.

The soldiers guarding the city immediately let them go after seeing the convoy. Not far from the city gate, a dozen people hurried towards them as the convoy drove not far from the city gate.

After seeing Jiang Ci, the leading Xuanyi guards knelt on one knee and saluted.

"Subordinates, please see your master."

Behind them were a dozen young men. They were wearing coarse cotton-padded clothes. They were generally thin, but overall they were in good spirits.

Jiang Ci said in a deep voice: "Get up."

"Thank you, Master!"

After several people stood up, Ying Qi pointed at the young people behind them.

"Master, these people are some of the people rescued in Baihua Town. My subordinates felt that these boys were very exciting, so they selected them and planned to focus on cultivating them."

After finishing speaking, the shadow guard called to the group of teenagers: "Listen up, everyone, this person in front of you is our master. From now on, all of you must be loyal to the master and obey the master's arrangements in everything."

The young people knelt down with respectful expressions.

"Young man, please meet your master."

Jiang Ci got off his horse and walked slowly to them.

His cold phoenix eyes scanned the crowd lightly: "Since you have entered the Xuanzong Sect, you must strictly abide by the Xuanzong Sect's rules from now on. Remember that the Xuanzong Sect never raises waste."

“Young man, please remember the Lord’s Church!”

"Get up."

"Yes!"

Jiang Ci's eyes fell on a pair of twins. He had some impressions of these brothers. When they rescued the group of captured refugees from Zhenwumen that day, these two brothers were among them.

After they were rescued, they also helped to deal with the Zhenwumen gang. Since both of them were somewhat capable, Jiang Ci was quite impressed by them.

"What are your names?"

The two brothers did not expect that Jiang Ci would take the initiative to ask them, and excitement flashed on their thin faces.

One of them said: "To return to the master, my name is Guan Shan, and he is my brother Guan Hai."

Jiang Ci asked in a deep voice: "Do you know martial arts?"

The two brothers shook their heads together.

Guan Haidao: "Our brothers grew up in the countryside and have never learned martial arts. However, we followed my father to the mountains to hunt since we were young."

Ying Qi said in a low voice: "These two brothers have good bones. Guan Shan's archery is extremely accurate and can pierce a poplar with a hundred steps. Guan Hai is born with supernatural power and can kill a bull with one fist. Although he is brute force, he is also flexible enough. As long as Cultivated with care, these two brothers are two good seedlings."

Jiang Ci's cold eyes were slightly curious.

"Guan Hai, how much cargo can you carry at one time?"

"Replying to the master, I haven't tried it carefully, but in previous years when the mountains were closed in winter, I would work as a porter on the dock. It would not be a problem to move six to seven hundred kilograms of goods at a time."

Jiang Ci pointed to the cart of grain: "Go and try moving it."

Guan Hai knew that his master was going to test him. He nodded and sighed, walked straight to the grain truck, easily picked up a hundred kilogram sack and put it on his shoulders, and then the second bag, the third bag, the fourth bag... …

Because they were stacked too high, other people could only step forward to help with the remaining bags.

When ten bags of grain were stacked on the ground, Guan Hai's expression remained calm and normal.

Jiang Ci was also quite shocked. This young man looked weak, but he didn't expect to have such power. If he was well cultivated, he would definitely be a powerful general.

"Okay, let's go here."

Guan Hai said: "Master, I can carry a few more bags."

Huan Ying smiled and scolded: "You can still carry it, but we can't reach this height."

Jiang Cidao: "It's not enough to go too far. Please help unload the grain."

"Yes!"

Several shadow guards stepped forward and took down all the ten sacks of food Guan Hai was carrying.
