General, your wife has gone to deliver another calf for your horse.

Chapter 169 The person is already dead, why did you call me here?
Jiang Nuanzhi: "I think you're pretty impressive, you know how to write ads at a time like this."

"Advertisement? What's that?" Hua Yue looked over curiously.

Jiang Nuanzhi: "Advertising is simply... spreading the word."

Hua Yue pinched her chin and pondered, "This wording is good, I like it, this is an advertisement."

It must be said that Huayue is indeed talented in this area.

I just don't understand why her previous shop ended up like that. But, as a woman starting her own business, she must have had her share of hardships.

"Hurry up! Don't just stand there, bring everything out."

As Hua Yue spoke, she looked at Jiang Nuanzhi and stared intently at the basket on her back.

Jiang Nuanzhi didn't delay. She put down the basket and handed the porcelain bottle to her.

There are sixty bottles in total.

"Good, good, good!" Hua Yue nodded, then quickly opened a bottle, scooped up some ointment with her fingernail, rubbed it on her hand, and smelled it. Her eyes brightened even more: "The quality this time seems even better than last time!"

Jiang Nuanzhi smiled: "Yes, this time the grinding is more fine."

"I'll keep all of these. Just wait, I'll make two copies of the daily ledger and have them sent to you at the end of the month. But if this stuff sells well, you'll have to make sure you can supply it."

Jiang Nuanzhi said, "You can try selling them for now. I can only guarantee a maximum of 500 bottles a month; I can't handle more than that for the time being." After saying that, she asked, "What price are you planning to set?"

“Five hundred bottles should be enough,” Hua Yue said. “I plan to set the price of the ointment at two and a half ounces for now. You know, our ointment isn’t famous yet, so we need to sell it for a while. Once those young ladies and wives find it useful, they will naturally come back to us. At that time, maybe our business can even reach the capital!” As she spoke, her eyes sparkled.

Jiang Nuanzhi wasn't good at doing business, but seeing how confident Hua Yue was, she simply nodded and extended her hand: "Okay, let's start with a deposit."

Hua Yue's eyes widened: "It was agreed that we would split the money after selling the silver!"

Jiang Nuanzhi glanced at her: "We're out of money, can we get an advance?"

Hua Yue glanced at her suspiciously, then looked at the donkey cart outside that was snorting: "You're a doctor, after all. How come you're having such a hard time? Do you want me to lend you a carriage?"

"No need, my donkey is also very handsome. And it has a super good temperament, you can go out and pet it if you don't believe me."

Hua Yue shook her head three times in a row, "No, no, no, that's not necessary."

The movement was too forceful, tearing at the wound. He hissed, "Damn it, they hit me so hard! If I break the connection, they'll regret it!"

After saying that, he lowered his head and took out some silver: "I don't have fifty taels. Consider this twenty taels a loan to you. I will deduct it from the account when the ointment is sold."

Jiang Nuanzhi nodded: "Okay."

Hua Yue handed twenty taels of silver to Jiang Nuanzhi, then looked at Lü Shizhu: "Young Master, did you bring the calligraphy?"

Lu Shizhu was taken aback: "Of course I brought it."

Hua Yue laughed and said, "Five hundred taels is definitely not going to work. I can only give you one hundred and fifty taels at most, and anything more is out of the question. To be honest, that calligraphy is for sale to a wealthy merchant in the capital. I've bought it for now, but I'm not sure if that merchant will come back. I really don't know if I'll lose money. I can't afford to add another tael of silver."

Upon hearing this, Lü Shizhu immediately went to inquire about Jiang Nuanzhi.

Hua Yue had actually already turned her attention to Jiang Nuanzhi.

How could she not know that Young Master Lü was not the type to negotiate prices with her?

Jiang Nuanzhi shrugged and said frankly, "Alright, one hundred and fifty taels it is. Then the painting will be sold to Hua Niangzi."

"Is this what doing business should be like?"

As Hua Yue spoke, her fingers formed a lotus-like shape, and she delicately and affectedly flicked the handkerchief.

If it weren't for the bruises on her face and the lack of extravagant decorations on her body, she would probably have looked quite beautiful doing this.

However, both parties were quite satisfied with today's deal.

When Jiang Nuanzhi entered, her pockets were empty, but when she came out, she had 170 taels of silver notes. Lü Shizhu was even more excited, and couldn't help but say as soon as he came out, "Nuanzhi, I didn't expect her to give in after only one day. If we wait a couple more days, maybe she'll compromise. Do you think we should ask for a higher price next time we sell her calligraphy?"

Jiang Nuanzhi nodded: "That makes sense. We'll discuss it further next time. But selling calligraphy isn't a long-term solution, and there's no guarantee there won't be a next time."

"By the way, if you're busy, you don't need to come with me. I'm going to the school."

Lu Shizhu shook his head: "What do I have to do? I might get scolded by my father when I get back. Besides, aren't you going to my house later too? My dad wanted to go to your house a long time ago, but he gave up after I told him you would be coming today. He's waiting to order five hundred bottles of medicine from you."

Jiang Nuanzhi nodded: "In that case, let's go."

However, after leading the donkey for only a few steps, they were blocked by a crowd of onlookers.

"Huh? What's going on here?" Lü Shizhu frowned, looked up and ahead, and immediately said with schadenfreude, "This is the entrance of Jinhua Hall. So many people, did they do something bad?"

Thinking this, his eyes grew brighter and brighter: "Anuan, wait a moment, I'll go take a look."

He left those words behind and squeezed into the crowd.

Jiang Nuanzhi frowned slightly, but there was no use in being anxious now, so she tied up the donkey and decided to take a look as well.

"What did you say! Physician Sun! What do you mean she's not breathing? You must save my lady! Hurry!"

"My wife was perfectly fine when she bought the tassel, how could it suddenly go flat? You must be lying!"

Physician Sun removed the silver needles from the woman's arm: "Not only is she not breathing, but she also has no pulse. She's dead. What did you call me here for?"

"No, no, no! That's impossible! Madam was just talking to me peacefully, and she even said she would buy fabric to make clothes for the young master!"

Sun Langzhong shook his head, frowned, and tried to leave.

The young maid suddenly knelt down and clung tightly to his leg: "Please save our mistress! I beg you! Our mistress did good deeds all her life, and she just tripped and fell on the road. How could she suddenly be gone! If you save our mistress, Master will definitely reward you handsomely. Our master is very powerful."

Sun Langzhong kicked the man away impatiently, saying with disgust, "Stop your nonsense. I've seen plenty of people like you. This person is already dead. How can I save him? You'd be better off taking him back and preparing for the funeral."

"No way! No way! Madam! Wake up! Madam! Madam!" The maid knelt on the ground, crying her heart out.

People around them pointed and whispered, and noise rose and fell.

Jiang Nuanzhi only glanced at it, and her pupils suddenly contracted.

She immediately stepped forward to examine the man.

Lu Shizhu was startled and immediately grabbed her: "Anuan, this person has no pulse. Doctor Sun is the face of Jinhua Hall, and what he says is not false. It's best not to get involved in this matter."

Jiang Nuanzhi frowned: "Perhaps there is still hope for her."

Without a word, Jiang Nuanzhi broke free from Lü Shizhu's hand, quickly glanced at the patient, and checked her condition. Just as expected: "Her pupils haven't dilated yet, which means her brain is still intact. We haven't reached the final stage yet."

According to the young maid, the lady suddenly fell while they were walking on the road and then completely lost consciousness.

Judging from the current situation, it shouldn't take long, and thankfully it won't.

Jiang Nuanzhi immediately untied the tightly wrapped clothes. Fortunately, the people of the Great Wilderness did not have the habit of binding their chests. However, this lady was slightly plump, and her own waistband was tied very tightly.

The lady's maidservant snapped out of her daze and immediately stepped forward to protect her mistress: "What are you doing? Why are you trying to undress my lady! Stop right now!"

Ah Nuan remembered that her master had told her that when her medical skills reached their peak, she could open the brocade pouch her master had left her. Because it contained the most important secrets of the medical world.

Several years later, Ah Nuan finally achieved some success.

With trembling hands, she opened the brocade pouch.

It was written on it.
Good night, early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy.
