Reborn to face famine, I brought a space full of supplies!
Chapter 182 Standing on your own
Jiang Chuyue refused to mention anything about herself and was stubborn. Xiao Yihao did not expose her and continued with what she said, "Stay at home for three to five days. There is nothing important to do in the next two days."
After understanding the situation, Jiang Chuyue nodded thoughtfully, "So, are you going to keep your return a secret from the village?"
“No need to hide it.” Seeing that Jiang Chuyue was holding more and more bags of medicinal herbs, Xiao Yihao stood up and climbed out of the window, taking the bags of medicinal herbs from Jiang Chuyue’s hands.
"Are you planning to continue your research by getting so many medicinal herbs?" Xiao Yihao suddenly thought of what Liu Wu said last night and asked curiously.
"Yes, there are more and more refugees in the town and the county now, and most of them have some health problems, so I want to research some medicine for health, and then boil it and distribute it to avoid any problems."
Whenever disaster strikes, epidemics are always prone to occur. It was based on this consideration that Jiang Chuyue started preparing in advance.
Otherwise, once an epidemic occurs, with today's medical conditions, the number of casualties will probably be quite high.
It would be better to take precautions in advance so as to avoid affecting themselves.
"You've thought it through very carefully." Even Xiao Yihao hadn't thought of this.
"Have you ever thought about the matter I discussed with you before?" Jiang Chuyue suddenly mentioned the previous proposal to Xiao Yihao that he should set up his own faction. Now the war is bound to break out, but it is still unclear when it will start. It all depends on whether the princes in the south are planning to start an uprising.
"I have mentioned this to Mr. Liu, but this is not a trivial matter after all, and I'm afraid we won't be able to reach a conclusion in a short period of time." Although Xiao Yihao also felt that what Jiang Chuyue said made sense, this kind of thing was a big deal that affected many people.
Not to mention how to establish one's own power, even after establishing one's own power, it would be difficult to protect oneself when facing many vassal kings who are eyeing them covetously.
Xiao Yihao and Jiang Chuyue have too few people they can use. Perhaps they can accomplish something with the support of Shuiyun Pavilion, but Xiao Yihao has not yet completely taken control of Shuiyun Pavilion. Even if he does, his foundation is unstable when he takes the position. If he wants to make such a big decision, I am afraid that many people will oppose it.
Therefore, the best option at the moment is to persuade Liu Mo to agree to this matter.
Jiang Chuyue also understood the interests involved and Xiao Yihao's difficult situation, but this kind of thing should be done sooner rather than later. If one plans to set up his own business, one must start preparing early.
"Do it as soon as possible. I'm afraid if we delay any longer, it might not work." After Jiang Chuyue sorted out all the herbs, she piled them on the donkey cart, planning to find a suitable time to send them to the town.
But before she could take any action, news came from the grain store in the town.
*
"Sister Jiang, someone has sent you another letter." Aunt Zhang, who had slept in the field all night, came with a familiar young man.
Seeing Xiao Yihao still at home, Aunt Zhang asked curiously, "Brother Xiao, don't you need to go out now?"
"He will stay at home for a few days." Jiang Chuyue took the initiative to explain. Aunt Zhang nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Jiang Chuyue and Xiao Yihao both had secrets, but Aunt Zhang also knew clearly what to ask and what not to ask.
She would never ask any questions that she shouldn't ask.
It is precisely because of Aunt Zhang's point that Jiang Chuyue will feel more at ease with her, and there is no need to explain too much. This way, both parties can feel more relaxed.
He looked past Aunt Zhang and at the waiter behind her, who was from Manager Zhang's grain shop.
"But what's the matter, Manager Zhang?" After Jiang Chuyue recognized him, she thought about what the grain shop had to do in the next two days and had a rough idea in her mind.
"The shopkeeper said that the price has been negotiated, and they are just waiting for the boss to come over." The waiter knew that he couldn't reveal too much about this matter. Seeing that there were a few people in the courtyard whose identities he didn't know, he spoke vaguely.
Jiang Chuyue understood, "I see. Wait for me for a moment. I'll pack up and go to town with you."
Jiang Chuyue attached great importance to the grain shop's business. More importantly, she was very curious about what the Zhou family was planning to do. Was the purchase of such a large quantity of grain really unrelated to the imperial court?
Xiao Yihao also knew that there was something fishy about this matter, so he naturally wouldn't stop Jiang Chuyue. After Jiang Chuyue went back to her room to change clothes, Xiao Yihao found a suitable opportunity and showed his man in front of Jiang Chuyue.
"These people will stay with you from now on. First, they will protect you. Second, if there is anything important, you can send them to handle it."
For example, this time, the cooperation with the Zhou family can be considered an important matter.
Jiang Chuyue nodded and didn't refuse. "It's getting late. I have to leave as soon as possible."
After meeting Jiang Chuyue, the few people quickly disappeared from their sight, but Jiang Chuyue was able to determine their current location with her keen perception.
After everything was prepared, Jiang Chuyue said goodbye to Xiao Yihao and followed the waiter directly to the town.
"Boss Jiang, the county manager Wu asked me to tell you that one of the men in the family you asked them to keep an eye on did go out two days ago."
Jiang Chuyue had been keeping an eye on Wu Yu, also known as Xiao Li's movements, but because he had been hiding in Widow Zhou's house and never went out, it was impossible for her to keep an eye on him all the time. Fortunately, the owners of the grain shops had their own people who could help Jiang Chuyue keep an eye on his whereabouts.
"The shopkeeper also said that the man's behavior was very strange. The shopkeeper will tell you the details after you arrive." The waiter knew that Jiang Chuyue was their shopkeeper's boss, so he was very respectful to Jiang Chuyue, fearing that he would displease her.
Fortunately, Jiang Chuyue is not a difficult person to serve.
"I understand. Is there any other movement from Widow Zhou's family?" Jiang Chuyue was very curious about how Widow Zhou was doing the flesh trade.
Widow Zhou's family kept their doors closed, and people who went to her house only cared about enjoying themselves, but they had no idea who helped them relieve their desires.
But in Widow Zhou's family, there is only Widow Zhou on the surface. Even if she receives customers, it is impossible for her to have several guests every day.
"I'm not sure about this. I'm afraid I'll have to wait for you, Boss Jiang, to come and the shopkeeper will be able to explain it to you clearly." The young waiter didn't know too much.
Jiang Chuyue naturally wouldn't make things difficult for him, a person with little authority. He was just doing his job according to the orders of Manager Zhang and others.
He knew as much as they told him to know. If Manager Zhang and the others didn't tell him, the young waiter naturally wouldn't know.
"Lead the way quickly." Jiang Chuyue urged.
