Chapter 64 The Smart Girl

King Li also said: "It is indeed good."

Dugu Huanxu smiled and said: "You eat first, and I will explain to you after you finish eating. These dishes should be eaten while they are hot to taste."

The two nodded, stopped asking any more questions, and ate quickly.

Prince Li and Princess Li both advocated frugality and requested that the meals cooked in the palace would be enough for them every time, so it didn't take long for them to finish all the food.

King Li said: "Not bad, delicious, especially delicious."

Princess Li also said: "I have had a bad appetite recently, so these foods come at the right time."

"As long as your father, princess and concubine like it." Dugu Huanxu said: "If you like these dishes, let the kitchen do this in the future."

Feng Yuan and Feng Yun are responsible for teaching the cook.

Princess Li asked curiously: "How is this made? Why do I think there is oil in every dish?"

"Is such that……"

Dugu Huanxu then told him all about peanut oil and cooking.

After listening, Princess Li was surprised and said: "There are actually such smart girls in this world."

King Li also said: "The children today are really amazing."

Dugu Huanxu said: "If I hadn't personally watched her squeeze the oil, I wouldn't have believed that peanuts could be turned into oil."

"This stir-fry is so popular. If we sell oil together with her in the future, we can make more money."

"Everywhere is not peaceful now, and there will be a war at any time. We still need to prepare more money."

"And I feel like she knows more than just that. Maybe she can help our fiefdom develop into the most prosperous fiefdom. From now on, whenever others mention the Liwang fiefdom, they will be fascinated by it."

After Wang Li thought for a moment, he asked: "How old is that girl?"

"Nine years old."

"Well, from what you say, it's not easy for her. As long as it's beneficial to our fiefdom, you can help her however you want in the future. She saved your life, and we should repay her."

"Thank you, father."



After having lunch, Nangong Anshan went to the mountains again and brought back a lot of vegetables and herbs.

Originally, she wanted to start growing garlic in the yard, but she gave up the idea because there were piles of construction materials in many places and people would step on them if she was not careful every day.

There are a lot of things she will grow in the future. The current seven acres of land are simply not enough, and the money is far from enough. She can just take out the seasonings her family will need in the future from the space temporarily. When she has money to buy the land,

, just plant again.

After the oil pressing workshop is built, her family will have a regular income.

At night, after everyone went to bed, she started working on her oil press again.

After the workshop is completed, a lot will be needed. Now prepare it in advance. Once the workshop is completed, it can be put into use, and she can have a regular income early.

The next day, she used a cart to push the herbs to the pharmacy.

This time, just like last time, her medicinal materials were sold for a full ten taels of silver.

Taking the money from the apprentice, she sighed: "It's really hard to make money. I only sold it for ten taels of silver in one day."

When can she buy hundreds of acres of land and grow something she likes?

The apprentice next to him staggered when he heard this and looked at Nangong Anshan with a look of resentment.

Is ten taels of silver a day still short?

This is money that many people cannot earn in a year.

His monthly salary is only two taels of silver.

The apprentice thought for a while, then stepped forward with a smile: "Girl, I have a question for you."

Nangong Anshan said: "Ask."

"Where do you get these herbal medicines from? You can come and sell them in one day. Now you can basically be regarded as our largest supplier of medicinal materials."

"They are all picked from the Xu Lei Mountain next to my home. When we lived there, no one lived there, so there were many herbs. Now that we have lived there, there will probably be fewer herbs in the future."

"Girl, do your family always pick herbs with you?"

"Well, that's right."

"Thank you for your answer, girl. I have no problem."

"Then pick up some more medicine for me. Here are the prescriptions."

"OK."

Nangong Anshan took the medicine and left the pharmacy.

The doctor next to him saw his apprentice looking at Nangong Anshan's back with envy, and frowned: "What? You think it's better for me as my apprentice to collect herbs and sell them every day?"

The apprentice suddenly felt a little embarrassed and said, "Yes."

The doctor snorted, "Don't even think about making a living like that girl selling medicine. That girl is very strong and probably has many people helping her at home, so she can sell hundreds of kilograms of medicinal materials every time."

"You have grown up in the city since you were a child. It is difficult to carry anything weighing dozens of kilograms, let alone hundreds of kilograms of medicinal materials. Last time I asked you to help unload the goods, you fainted in half an hour."

"The weather is getting hotter and hotter now. If you are exposed to the sun every day on the mountain, it will probably take less than two days, and you will lose half your life."

"You don't have anyone at home to help you. If you go up the mountain alone, if you encounter a wild animal or suddenly get sick, you won't even be able to find anyone to collect your body."

After hearing this, the apprentice thought about it seriously and suddenly became weak.

Although what the master said was unpleasant, it was really right. His body simply did not allow him to go to the mountain every day.

Seeing the disappointed look on his apprentice's face, the old doctor comforted him and said, "Okay, don't think about it so much anymore. You will learn medical skills from me honestly from now on. I will only accept you as my apprentice in this life. Your talent will not be the same."

Very good. Before I die, I will definitely pass on all my skills to you. With my medical skills, you will be able to live without worries in the future."

The apprentice nodded: "Yes, I listen to the master."

What Nangong Anshan didn't know was that after she left, the two of them sneaked into Jishan Hall.

One person asked: "Brother, I would like to ask how much medicine the girl who came in just now sold medicine for."

The apprentice looked at her askance: "Why are you asking this? Who is that girl to you?"

"I am her relative. The money she has taken home the last few times has been a bit low. We are worried that she has kept it secretly, so we came here to ask this time."

The apprentice asked: "Where is the evidence? You just say she is your relative?"

Another person said: "That is my cousin, this is her grandma, we are really her relatives."

"Grandma?" the apprentice said with disdain on his face, "I don't believe it. Also, if you are that girl's cousin, then you have no right to interfere in other people's affairs. You are not a biological sister."

"You!" Mrs. Qiu was furious and looked at the old doctor next to her: "Doctor, is this how you discipline your servants?"

The old doctor said: "He is not my servant, but my apprentice, and I agree with what he said. You have nothing to do with that girl!"
