With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

Chapter 29: I will repay you by being your ox or horse in the next life!

The old doctor pinched his beard with his hand and smiled kindly.

"I just want to make a living, not to make dirty money. I'll charge one silver dollar for five packets of medicine. This packet of medicine is enough for three hundred people."

A packet of medicine powder weighs about one pound, which is about two grams per person.

This powder is a concentrated essence, and each person should not take too much.

When he was giving Xu Shitou the medicine just now, he only scooped out a little bit with a spoon, about the size of a little fingernail.

Minister of Military Affairs Zhao Gang estimated in his mind and determined the required quantity.

"Okay! Then give me 300 packs. Do you have that many?"

In fact, about two hundred and fifty packets would be enough, but he wanted to prepare more so that if someone else had diarrhea on the road, they would not be without medicine.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The old doctor walked to the ox cart, counted the packets of medicine powder wrapped in oil paper, and handed them to the soldiers.

After unloading these medicine bags, there were still some left on the ox cart.

The old doctor continued to talk to Chen Gang, "I still have some magic medicine for colds and fevers. If you want it, I will give you the lowest price."

Chen Gang thought about it. The weather is getting colder and colder, and people in the army often catch colds.

Coughing and runny nose are not bad, but we are worried that the high fever will not go away. If there is no medicine, the soldiers can only endure it.

"Okay! I'll take all of these!"

Finally, these medicines were distributed according to the number of people suffering from dysentery in each camp.

When Zhao Dashan and Wang Jianguo came back in the afternoon, everyone had already taken the medicine.

Zhou Yue used the purslane they picked to make several large pots of purslane porridge, which has the effect of replenishing blood and iron.

Seeing everyone’s pitifully low health points, Zhou Yue really wanted to give them some good supplements.

However, my stomach and intestines are damaged now, so it is not suitable to eat greasy food. I should eat some light food first.

After dinner, three large pots began to boil water without stopping.

When a large-scale diarrhea outbreak occurred in the team, everyone looked for the cause and finally determined that it was a problem with the water source.

Therefore, military doctors recommend that you try not to drink raw water in the future, and that water must be boiled before drinking.

After the water boiled, Zhou Yue filled a bowl with it and walked towards a small thatched hut.

Li Suzhen lives in this abandoned thatched house.

As soon as I entered, I saw Li Suzhen lying on the bed and Xu Shitou sitting beside the bed watching over her.

When Li Suzhen saw the person coming, she propped herself up and half sat up.

Zhou Yue put the water next to the bed and said, "Brother Shitou, the water is already boiling. Go fill up both of your kettles so you can drink it in the evening."

Li Suzhen was a very smart woman and immediately understood what Zhou Yue meant.

He said to Xu Shitou who was about to go out, "Go out and help everyone with more work. I want to talk to Sister Zhou Yue for a while."

In this way, Xu Shitou was successfully sent out, and the two of them had a quiet space to talk.

"Sister Suzhen, how are you feeling lately?"

"I feel much better after taking the medicine. Thank you so much for what happened last time."

The last time she had a threatened miscarriage, her heart broke when she touched the blood on her hand.

In fact, she understood that during such a difficult long march, it was very likely that the child would not be born.

But this is her own flesh and blood, and she is a first-time mother, so she really hopes that her child can see the world.

Zhou Yue looked at her belly which had no bulge at all and couldn't tell that she was four or five months pregnant.

Li Suzhen has a very thin figure, and no one would guess that she is pregnant.

Zhou Yue remembered that when her cousin was pregnant, she could see a very obvious bulge when she was almost four months pregnant, and she started to gain weight.

"Sister Suzhen, have you noticed that the fetus is growing a little slowly?"

Zhou Yue spoke very softly when she said this, for fear of hurting Sister Suzhen's heart.

After all, no matter which mother it is, it will be sad to hear that her baby is not developing well.

Li Suzhen put her hand on her belly, her face showing helplessness and pain.

"I know, but there's nothing I can do."

Zhou Yue took out a palm-sized bag from her arms, which contained enough for one day.

There are many nutritional supplements in it, including folic acid, calcium tablets, DHA, multivitamins, iron supplements and nutritional paste.

"Sister Suzhen, these are all nutritional supplements. As long as you take them every day, your baby will grow very well! This is the amount for one day. I will bring you the nutritional supplements every morning from now on."

Li Suzhen recalled the last time Zhou Yue gave her a pot of bitter medicine to drink, and the child that was supposed to be lost was miraculously saved.

She knew that there must be something very good in this small bag. Her eyes were red and full of gratitude.

"Sister Zhou Yue, I will always remember your kindness. In my next life, I will repay you even if I am your ox or horse."

Zhou Yue gently patted the back of her hand, "Sister Suzhen, don't say that. These are what I should do."

Improving the living conditions of the soldiers and preserving more revolutionary sparks is her mission this time!

Zhou Yue raised her lips and smiled playfully, "As long as Sister Yu Zhen helps me keep the secret, it will be the best reward for me~"

Li Suzhen pursed her lips and smiled softly after hearing this, "Okay, I will keep it a secret and won't tell anyone."

By the next morning after taking the medicine, most people's diarrhea had eased a lot. After resting until noon, the large group continued to move forward.

After crossing the Xiangjiang River in Hunan, the large army began to advance towards Guizhou and finally reached Guizhou in mid-December.

It is said that Sichuan is a place with many difficulties and dangers, as difficult as climbing to the sky, but the mountains and ridges in Guizhou are no less difficult.

The mountain roads along the way are winding and difficult to navigate. They are extremely steep and even several mules have fallen to their deaths on the mountains.

But there are also advantages. Wherever they walk are dense forests, and Zhou Yue will release some wild animals in the mountains from time to time.

Some mushrooms that grow in December are also placed on the mountain, but there are very few species, only Agaricus ovalis and Morels, which can grow in low temperatures.

With the nutrition provided by these wild products in the mountains, the soldiers' health values ​​have been steadily improving over the past half month.

The balance of points accumulated more and more, and Zhou Yue had been lacking an opportunity to purchase large quantities of supplies for the troops.

That afternoon, the large army arrived at a Miao village on Fengtou Mountain.

After staying in Fengtou Mountain Miao Village for a few days, Zhou Yue experienced the warmest customs and culture, and had the most thrilling and wonderful experience!
