Mrs. Gao thought she was talking about her willingness to test the medicine, so she smiled kindly and said, "Silly boy, what's the point? You can make such a medicine to benefit the people. It's the ancestors of our Zhao family who gave us the green smoke."
It's a great thing for you, so naturally I will support you!"
Listening to Mrs. Gao's words, Xiao Tiedou and Cao Gen were also a little excited. There were tears on their faces, but their scars were healed and they forgot about the pain. They said loudly: "We can also help test the medicine!"
Zhao Huanyu found it funny, but she was still very touched. She nodded and said, "I will definitely not let you down."
After saying that, she packed her things and went back to the room. Now it was a measurement problem. As long as it was taken care of, it should be fine.
However, experiments still need to be conducted on people of different age groups and with different physiques, otherwise it will be difficult to obtain accurate data.
Overall, it is still a very long and tiring process.
Knowing that this process was tiring, Zhao Huanyu did not leave and continued to forget food and sleep like the previous few days. He went back to study for a while, and when he saw that it was getting late, he took a break and continued the next day.
Duan Kuo rushed over at noon the next day. He originally thought he could see the finished product, but Zhao Huanyu said it was only a semi-finished product.
Duan Kuo was very disappointed, but he didn't show any dissatisfaction. He knew that this kind of thing could not be rushed. Zhao Huanyu was already very capable for this.
He sighed and said: "It's okay, it's okay, take your time, I'm not really here to spy on you, I just feel like I miss Grandma Zhao a little, come and stay for a few days hehehe!"
As he spoke, he placed the gift he had brought in front of Mr. Gao.
"Grandma, these are the new clothes I bought for you. The weather is getting hotter and we have to wear something cooler. These clothes made of silk are most suitable for wearing when the weather is hot. They are not hot at all!"
In order to prevent Zhao Huanyu from any psychological pressure, he quickly changed the topic and went to talk to Mr. Gao.
Zhao Huanyu could understand his good intentions. Looking at the gifts he prepared for Mr. Gao, she once again sighed that it was great to know such a friend.
Mrs. Gao has been smiling from ear to ear since Duan Kuo came here. Every time the child comes, she will bring her many gifts and respect her as if she were her own grandmother. She knows that this is all thanks to her granddaughter, so Duan Kuo
Be good to her, and she should also be good to Duan Kuo.
"You, you bring so many things every time you come here. Why do I, an old lady, wear so expensive clothes? Xiaoyu will also buy me new clothes. There are still many clothes in the cabinet that have never been worn. Why do you bring such expensive clothes?
Too much, I really can’t wear it anymore!”
Duan Kuo answered cheerfully: "Grandma, please feel free to wear them. Our business is not worth much. It's okay if you just throw them away when they get dirty!"
"Oh, don't say that! You must never do that kind of thing!"
How many people are still without enough food and clothing? How could she, an old rural lady, be so extravagant and wasteful?
Gao Shi made a move to cover his mouth, but Duan Kuo dodged it with a smile: "I know, I know, that's what I said, grandma is happy to hear it, don't take it to heart!"
"Hey, you kid, you only know how to make me happy!"
After a while, Mrs. Gao sighed with emotion, then got up and went to her room. When she came out, she had two more pairs of shoes in her hands.
She handed the shoes to Duan Kuo and said, "Grandma knows that you are always running around doing business. These shoes are specially made for you. They are padded inside, so you won't feel tired when you walk in them."
"Grandma still treats me well, so I'll accept it!"
Duan Kuo happily took it and tried it on on the spot. It was indeed very soft and comfortable. He couldn't bear to take it off after putting it on. He asked Wu Gui to help him put away the old shoes and another pair. He will wear new shoes today.
Seeing that he liked it so much, Mrs. Gao was very happy and smiled even happier.
The scene was so joyful for a while that Zhao Huanyu couldn't bear to be disturbed and took the initiative to get up and make tea for them.
After a while, Mr. Gao had to go out for something, and made an appointment with the old sisters in the village to collect shoe soles and chat about home affairs. It was impossible to miss the appointment at this time.
After Mr. Gao had gone far away, Duan Kuo asked Zhao Huanyu, "Do you have something to tell me?"
Having known each other for such a long time, Duan Kuo noticed that Zhao Huanyu was in a heavy mood from the beginning, but it was only because Gao didn't ask.
"Well," Zhao Huanyu nodded, "I do have something to tell you, but I don't know how to say it at the moment."
"Why are you embarrassed about me? Don't forget that I am your good buddy!"
Duan Kuo originally wanted to pat her shoulder to express comfort, but when he thought that she was engaged, it was inappropriate for him to do so, so he took his hand back.
Zhao Huanyu organized her words in her mind and said slowly: "Duan Kuo, I may not be able to make you a lot of money this time."
Duan Kuo's expression suddenly became serious and he asked: "What do you mean, what happened?"
"This medicine is hard to come by. Logically speaking, it should be sold at a high price and we can make a lot of money. But... this medicine can save lives, especially for the soldiers at the border. It can help them solve a lot of troubles.
If it is too expensive, the officers will be reluctant to give them such expensive medicine."
After saying that, she looked at Duan Kuo's reaction nervously.
This was a decision she made last night after being inspired by Mr. Gao. If she was the only one doing this business, she wouldn't be so entangled, but now she is partnering with Duan Kuo and needs him to go out and discuss this business.
Only in this way can it be done for a long time and, most importantly, can be widely used.
She was not sure whether Duan Kuo could accept such a low price. If not, their cooperation would have to be interrupted, and she might ask Ji Mingxuan to send someone to do this.
She is not the Holy Mother, nor is she the reincarnation of Guanyin. She just feels that it is necessary for her to do something to help people of this era within her own ability.
Duan Kuo did not speak immediately, but was seriously considering what Zhao Huanyu said.
He is a businessman, so he should put profit first. Anyway, the medicine has not yet been produced, so he can quit. After all, there is no need for him to get involved in this thankless business.
But... there is an official in his family, and his partner is Zhao Huanyu. As a woman, Zhao Huanyu has such a big picture view. How can he not be a big man?
The most important thing is that Zhao Huanyu's future husband is Ji Mingxuan. According to the current situation in the court, that person is very likely to take that position. By paving the way for the future and laying a solid foundation now, he can also accumulate some virtue for his family.
He doesn't have any ambition to be an official, but that doesn't guarantee that future generations won't have big ambitions. If he does more now, future generations will do less. It's all the same.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Zhao Huanyu said, "It's okay if you don't do this business..."
