Bai Song took Sang Sang to the western suburbs, where they were still in front of the three Turkic stalls.
The Turkic woman asked in broken Chinese: "Sir, is there anything else you need?"
Bai Song took out a piece of remaining Artemisia annua and said, "I think your goods should often travel through mountains and forests. Have you ever seen something like this?"
The Turkic woman took the Qinghao, turned around and communicated with the two men in Turkic language for a while, and then answered:
"I've seen them. They're often found in the nearby mountains and forests."
Bai Song was overjoyed and suppressed his excitement: "If I want you to go to the mountains to pick some and bring them back, how long will it take to get back and forth?"
"Six days."
"I need a lot of this. You go and collect it from the mountains for me. I'll buy it for thirty cents per catty, and I'll give you a lot of money for running errands."
The Turkic woman turned around and spoke to the man. The two men became excited and chattered to Bai Song, but Bai Song couldn't understand a word he said.
The woman explained: "Sir, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it's true. I've bought things for you before. You should know that I'm not someone who talks randomly."
"How much do you need, Master?"
Bai Song calculated the money on his sister and reported the number: "Forty pounds."
The Turkic women looked happy. It was much easier to dig grass in the mountains than to hunt game.
As for the deer before, the three brothers and sisters might not be able to find it even after ten days of work.
The woman nodded quickly and said that they would pack up the stall now to find medicinal materials for Bai Song.
Bai Song repeatedly told him to do it as soon as possible, and to contact Sang Sang directly when he came back.
After a few brief words, the Turks packed up their stalls and left.
Sangsang didn't quite understand: "Brother, what do you want with so much grass?"
"This is the key to making money and getting rich."
Bai Song had already prepared a list of prescriptions based on Artemisia annua, specifically for the treatment of malaria.
From now on, let Sang Sang prepare the medicine according to this list. Thousands of people outside Mang County have malaria, and they don't have to worry about not being able to sell it.
How can blood of nine thousand years old be sold for one hundred guan?
The Bai Song Artemisia Soup sold for ten guan.
As long as you sell a pair of medicines, not only will you pay off the money you owe, but you will also have some left over.
This is quite a fortune.
But Bai Song is not a person who eats steamed buns with human blood. This kind of medicine is first sold to wealthy people, and after three to five days of sales, it will be given away for free.
Then the prescription was announced to the county government, and the county government was asked to produce it on a large scale to quell the plague.
…
It was getting late, and Bai Song was preparing to return to Lin Mansion.
Sang Sang refused to listen to the dissuasion and insisted on sending her eldest brother to the place where they met.
The two of them walked together, much quieter than before.
Dusk turns to evening, the sun has become yesterday, and there are a few more stars in the snow curtain.
Sangsang stopped in front of the notice.
Xiao Nizi's deep reluctance was written in her loving eyes. While gently patting the snowflakes on Bai Song's body, she whispered softly: "Brother, Sangsang will be here waiting for you every day from now on."
"Silly girl, I may not know when I will have the chance to come out. You can't wait for me."
"One day I'll wait."
Sangsang was firm and sweet, and the old man who had lived for two lifetimes could hardly stand it anymore.
It is true that it is difficult to eliminate the kindness of a beautiful woman.
"Then...then that...I'm leaving."
Bai Song was a little panicked, like a deserter preparing to run away.
Unexpectedly, before he had taken two steps, a pair of small hands wrapped around his waist from behind, and Sangsang hugged Bai Song tightly.
"Brother, I will miss you."
There is a hint of coolness in the velvet snow, which reveals the warmth of the cotton clothes on the body.
Bai Song was deeply moved, and he knew how much courage it took to say these simple words from the little girl's mouth.
Bai Song wanted to say something to calm this girl's heart.
However, he saw that the snowflakes above his head were no longer falling, and a small white hand brushed over the top of Bai Song's head, gently sweeping away a few flakes of snow.
Under a snow-white velvet cloak, Lin Xiang'er stood beside Bai Song in a noble and elegant manner, holding an exquisite embroidered umbrella, giving Bai Song a peaceful world.
"who is she?"
With these three simple words, Lin Xiang'er maintained the same smile as everyone else's lady, and didn't realize that there was anything wrong with a little girl hugging Bai Song tightly.
"Miss Lin..."
Bai Song was stunned, how could he have thought of such a situation?
"Brother..." Bai Rou poked out half of her head from behind. She was wearing a brand-new coat that was quite exquisite and looked much prettier than usual.
"Sister... why are you... here?"
"My sister-in-law was worried about my brother, so she specially found it. We searched for it for a long time and walked through most of the city, but we didn't expect that my brother and Sangsang were together."
"Sang Sang?" Lin Xiang'er frowned slightly, looking at the stunned Sang Sang behind her.
Sangsang finally came to his senses, quickly let go, lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake, and stood aside submissively.
Bai Song stood between the two women. Although there were no unnecessary words, an indescribable smell suddenly filled the air.
Sang Sang was extremely nervous, and sweat was dripping from her forehead. She didn't dare to speak, but she mustered up the courage to glance at Lin Xiang'er.
I saw Lin Xiang'er like a peony proudly standing in the snow, noble and elegant, blooming with a beauty that makes even women awe.
Her plum blossom in the snow cannot be compared with it.
For a moment, a faint feeling of loss lingered in my heart. Then I looked at Brother Bai and Miss Lin standing together. That was the most beautiful scene in the wind and snow. They were a match made in heaven.
Too many things happened today. Sangsang experienced a series of ups and downs at a young age. Under the excitement, he forgot his identity, the estrangement, and everything that stood between him and Big Brother Bai, so he selflessly said and thought a lot.
A lot, a lot of longing for...
The moment he saw Miss Lin, Sangsang woke up from his dream and knew what he should do.
"I...I'm going back."
Leaving behind a word, Sangsang broke away from Bai Song, leaving a nonchalant figure walking out of the west city, but her face was stained with tears again.
Today, Xiao Nizi shed more tears than she has in her entire life.
Bai Song frowned, knowing that Sangsang was in a low mood, but he didn't know how to deal with such a thing. He could only think about giving her a decent gift next time they met, hoping that Xiao Nizi could be happy again.
"Take it!"
Lin Xiang'er's tone changed from her previous gentleness, and she forced the umbrella in her hand to Bai Song, then turned around and walked on the windy and snowy road.
…
Returning to the Lin Mansion, no one in the Lin family knew what happened today.
But Miss Lin fell ill again, her cough worsened, and she was bedridden.
During this period, Dr. Xue came twice and prescribed new medicine to Miss Lin.
Every time the servants of the Lin family brought medicine, Miss Lin secretly threw it away.
She didn't take any of the medicine prescribed by others, but wanted Bai Song to take care of her all day long.
Five days passed in a flash.
Qu Jia brought back the message through Bai Rou.
It was said that the Turkic man who went to collect medicine for Bai Song came back and brought back the artemisia annua he needed as requested. Now he is waiting for Bai Song to pay.
This was a major event, related to his future livelihood, so Bai Song had to go out.
Only he can identify whether it is the Artemisia annua that he wants, and he can personally demonstrate how to mix the medicine.
It's a pity that Lin Xiang'er was entangled so tightly that she wouldn't let Bai Song leave the Lin Mansion.
For a while, Bai Song could only worry in the house.
