"Junior brother, do you have to use antelope bones?" Sun Youwei asked, puzzled by seeing the antelope bone in Lin Miao’s prescription.
"Of course. Antelope bone is sweet, cold-natured, and aligns with the liver and stomach ridians. It has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, nourishing the liver and kidneys, stopping bleeding and reducing swelling, and promoting blood circulation. It is contraindicated for pregnant won," Lin Miao nodded and explained.
"What about buffalo horn?"
"Actually, using rhinoceros horn is more effective, but rhinoceros horn is too expensive, and I’m afraid Xiaohong’s family can’t afford it. Although buffalo horn has a slightly lesser effect, it’s sufficient for this ailnt," Lin Miao explained.
"This is what you an by tailoring the dicine to the person," Sun Youwei nodded slightly, beginning to understand so of Lin Miao’s thods in prescribing dicines based on the person.
Poor people primarily focus on curing diseases while considering other factors, whereas the wealthy don’t mind paying more for better and faster-acting dicine. This is normal.
For poor people, giving them expensive prescriptions, while effective, is useless if they can’t afford it.
The court set up convenient dical diagnosis points and designated pharmacies selling affordable dicines to cater to the poor’s need for treatnt and dication.
It’s a rare good policy, though its implentation might get distorted at the lower levels.
Good policies need people to execute them. If the executors are corrupt, can the policy be good?
Moreover, the amount of dicinal herbs consud by common people for treatnt is not the highest. In fact, the martial artists consu the most herbs.
For martial artists, buying dicinal herbs is relatively simple. They have fixed herbal bath recipes and only need to purchase them directly from pharmacies. The prices of almost all prescriptions are similar. Of course, there are regional differences, but factoring in transportation costs, the difference isn’t much.
If it’s a specific herbal bath recipe, every sect has its own cooperating physicians or internal pharmacists who mix them for large-scale procurent. The sect has its own internal dicine warehouse to mix them as needed.
Therefore, the dicine King Sect is the most profitable among all sects in this era, and no one dares to offend it.
The following cases are relatively common. Having one or two unique cases in a day would be good, offering a rare opportunity for dical students.
Because it’s the most valuable opportunity to gain experience.
...
Su Chen was imnsely shocked after seeing Si Miaoxue’s glass workshop and, upon learning that the glass-making thod was taught to Si Miaoxue by Lin Miao, he was utterly stunned.
This crystal-clear "colorless glass" was easily manufactured, and compared to its price, the cost was unbelievably low.
Although the yield rate isn’t high now, even with just a one percent yield rate, it’s imnsely profitable!
If this business materializes, the profits for the three parties involved will be unimaginable.
Controlling the production and creating high-quality products, if done right, can bring unimaginable wealth to the three families annually.
The losses the Su Family has suffered with the warhorses can completely be offset by this single revenue stream.
If he hadn’t already sent an eagle ssage for his mother to co to Dongshan, he would have wanted to return personally to report this situation to his father.
This friend whom he unintentionally befriended and ford a good relationship with during the physician’s exam helped him imnsely.
With just this business deal, his status within the Su Family beca unshakeable.
He was very eager, wishing he could settle the deal right now, even if it ant taking a slight loss, but since his mother hadn’t arrived yet, he could only wait in Dongshan City.
It takes two days to reach Dongshan from Lanzhou by fast horse. Given Bai Feng’s style, she definitely wouldn’t take a slow carriage ride.
She would surely arrive on a swift horse, pushing onward without a mont’s rest.
Even with her injuries not fully healed, could she endure such a long ride?
Two days later, at dusk, Su Chen hurriedly arrived at the dical diagnosis point, pulling Lin Miao along: "Dear brother, my mother has arrived at the Star-Picking Tower. Please co over for a chat."
"Alright." Lin Miao nodded. Bai Feng’s visit to Dongshan this ti should be kept secret, so eting at Xiuyue Square wasn’t appropriate.
The people from the Green Blade Sect seed to be keeping watch around Xiuyue Square, indicating they still intended to target him.
He instructed Xia Zhu to accompany Sun Youwei back. With Guan Biyun escorting them, if the Green Blade Sect dared to lay a hand on his senior sister, he would show no rcy, even if it ant an all-out war!
Such a significant business deal is enough to bind the Snow Mountain Sect in a shared interest.
Before this, he also had Han Chunyang pass a ssage to the Green Blade Sect people in prison, stating that if they dared to harm Sun Youwei, he wouldn’t mind turning their sect into a river of blood.
Let’s see if the Green Blade Sect dares to gamble on this.
He’s got nothing to lose.
The Green Blade Sect initially didn’t take him seriously, but now, things have changed. Sect Leader’s third disciple n Dong and four skilled fighters fell at his hands. If Lin Miao hadn’t held back, none of them would have survived.
Unless they find an opportunity to kill in one strike, they now dare not touch Lin Miao’s people.
The problem is that Lin Miao hardly steps out of Xiuyue Square now and is protected by experts like Guan Biyun and "Hui."
The Green Blade Sect wouldn’t dare rush into Xiuyue Square to kill, nor would they dare to commit assassinations.
To kill soone in the wild is a vendetta of the martial world, and the officials won’t pursue it when the people don’t press charges. But in the city, even if you’re from the foremost sect, the Tao Seeking Sect, you cannot act recklessly. Do you really think the secular court is just for show?
Now, besides Lin Miao, there is also the third young master of the Su Family, Su Chen. He is evidently not one to be trifled with, and behind Su Chen is his mother, Bai Feng, a master from the Snow Mountain Sect.
Although the Green Blade Sect is thriving, its overall foundation is not as solid as the Snow Mountain Sect. The Celestial Monarch Xue from the Snow Mountain Sect is a renowned expert of the Celestial Essence for many years. Besides Celestial Monarch Xue, there are at least two other Celestial Essence level experts, the Celestial Eagle and the Celestial Elephant.
Internally, at least a dozen are at the ridian Passage Realm. The ridian Passage Realm experts from the Green Blade Sect can be counted on one hand. Even sect leader Shen Yidao, who claims to be the foremost below Celestial Essence, has rumored capability to withstand the Initial Stage of Celestial Essence, but that is rely a rumor.
Let’s see if the Green Blade Sect knows their boundaries.
Top floor of the Star-Picking Tower.
Lin Miao t Bai Feng, whom he hadn’t seen for over a month. Bai Feng looked much slimr, clearly indicating that she has had a tough ti recently.
Besides the internal pressure from the Su Family, there’s also internal pressure from the Snow Mountain Sect. Bai Feng being the interdiary between the two implies significant pressure on her.
Receiving her son’s falcon ssage, she made her way to Dongshan imdiately.
Originally, she should have been overseeing the Su Family during this period. Her husband is busy outside, and besides a brief stay at ho during ’New Year’s Eve,’ he hasn’t been ho at all after the new year. The won at ho tend to stir up trouble...
Fortunately, she can still manage. Although Su Chen’s two elder brothers were born earlier, their mothers ca from relatively humble backgrounds, so they can’t make much of a fuss. However, Su Chen has a younger brother whose mother’s family is considered a prestigious family in Lanzhou. Then there’s the second uncle who, after failing in the competition for family Patriarch, isn’t one to be underestimated either...
"Greetings, Aunt Bai," Lin Miao said.
"Little Lin, you’re too polite. You’ve saved my life and are a brother to Chen’Er. I consider you like a half-son, please sit." Upon seeing Lin Miao, Bai Feng’s weariness vanished completely.
"Aunt Bai, you are too kind. You are my elder, it’s only appropriate," Lin Miao said with deep respect for Bai Feng. Not only does she have a reputation in the martial world, but she also handles matters with great enthusiasm and generosity, which suits his personality well.
Unlike so elderlies who are overly strict and challenging to interact with.
"Little Lin, Su Chen has already told about your venture. I agree with it; it’s certainly a boon for the Su Family and Snow Mountain Sect. However, I feel your profit sharing might be too generous, we are only contributing so effort and taking away so much..." Bai Feng said earnestly. Lin Miao had saved her life and brought this invaluable opportunity to the Su Family and Snow Mountain Sect. If not for Su Chen’s relation, they wouldn’t necessarily choose to collaborate with you.
This significant wealth is virtually being offered freely to the Su Family and Snow Mountain Sect, and what they contribute is rely manpower.
Of course, there are risks, but for the Su Family and Snow Mountain Sect, this is negligible. At least the Su Family hasn’t fallen, and the Snow Mountain Sect remains a top-tier sect.
A top-tier sect should have the dignity it deserves.
"Mr. Su knows our goods are not really valuable. Among the three parties, we are rely suppliers, the easiest role with virtually no risk. The Su Family needs transportation and channel setup, while Snow Mountain Sect provides protection and endorses our products. This profit distribution is very reasonable, and as long as cooperation goes well, the business can continue indefinitely. However, as the market becos saturated, no one is a fool, and profits will inevitably get diluted," Lin Miao explained.
"Little Lin, I must clarify, is this business yours or Si Miaoxue’s?" Bai Feng asked sternly.
"The business is what I’ve given her."
"Do you know Si Miaoxue’s true identity?" Bai Feng inquired further.
Lin Miao nodded.
"Although I haven’t uncovered much, from my experience of roaming the martial world, Si Miaoxue has been hiding in Dongshan City for many years, surely with ulterior motives. Little Lin, please don’t be swayed by beauty?" Bai Feng advised solemnly.
"Aunt Bai, rest assured, I’m well aware of Si Miaoxue’s background and her purpose in Dongshan City," Lin Miao nodded.
"We only acknowledge you. As long as there are no issues with you, it’s fine."
"Of course, Aunt Bai, please rest assured," Lin Miao nodded. If Bai Feng pursued this line of questioning any further, it would beco truly troubleso.
Moon Worship Sect is regarded as demonic by the righteous path, and as a mber of the righteous path, Snow Mountain Sect cannot collaborate with soone from a demonic sect like Si Miaoxue. If word of this spreads, the Snow Mountain Sect’s reputation would be at risk.
However, Lin Miao’s identity has no relation to the demonic path, which can be thoroughly verified.
"If that’s settled, when can this first batch of goods be shipped?" Bai Feng asked. Once cooperation is confird, there’s no need for delay; the Su Family urgently needs liquidity.
"I can ship anyti from my side; it’s up to how Aunt Bai and Snow Mountain Sect arrange!" Lin Miao replied, the goods are ready.
"Great, I’ll make arrangents. Three days at the earliest, five days at the latest. Additionally, besides your batch of goods, we need so other items as cover..." Bai Feng said.
"Sure."
"Aunt Bai, after selling these colorless glassware, we can invest the proceeds in Great Yue, buy their goods, and bring them back. This way, with a profit, we can earn double the amount, which is entirely beneficial to us." Lin Miao suggested.
"Hmm, if that’s the case, then we need more personnel, and costs will increase as well." Bai Feng nodded. While she isn’t as skilled in business as her husband, her husband is currently busy overseeing Lanzhou.
"But, it will ultimately be profitable."
"This ti, I want Su Chen to go; he should start managing the family’s business." Bai Feng glanced at Su Chen and said.
"Mother, I understand. I won’t let you down." Su Chen nodded. Although he doesn’t wish to be bound by the family, he isn’t irresponsible. The family’s troubles cannot be ignored by the heir.
