Quick Transmigration: A money-loving man meets a boy who gives away money!

Chapter 35: The Greedy Fox vs. the Princess of Great Chu (5)

Cluck——cluck——!

The crowing of the chickens bought yesterday for the two fox fairies could be heard in the inn.

Chu Jiangli woke up in the noise, coughed twice, and felt the bitter taste in his mouth. He frowned and said, "Green... Jade..., water."

She looked at the bed curtains hanging from the ceiling and tapped the side of the bed with her fingers, making a sound.

Qingyu was on guard all night. When she first heard His Highness' voice, she thought it was an illusion until she found that His Highness had really opened his eyes!

"Your Highness! Thank you for the blessing of the fox fairy!"

"water……"

"Oh! Please wait a moment!" Qingyu immediately fetched hot water and gently helped Chu Jiangli up to drink.

After taking a few sips of water, the bitterness in his mouth was diluted, and Chu Jiangli asked calmly: "Fox Fairy, what's going on?"

Qingyu didn't dare to hide anything and told the whole story of meeting the sisters Yu Ci and Hu Liu and saving Chu Jiangli.

Chu Jiangli did not answer. She looked at Qingyu quietly for two seconds, then shifted her gaze to her wrist, where a red thread was quietly wrapped around it, which she could not touch or feel.

Obviously, even Qingyu can't be seen.

She remembered that she was indeed saved by a fire fox that day, but the rescue was for no reason, and now there was a red thread between them. This weird fact really made people think too much.

Is this a fairy fox, or... a demon fox? !

What does she want from herself?

Want the lives of the people? Souls?

Or is it the destiny of her Great Chu?

"Let them come to see me."

Yu Ci and Hu Liu had just finished eating three roast chickens in the kitchen when they were called to Li Jiang's sister's ward.

Hu Liu asked: "Are you going to give us some kind of reward? I hope it's a chicken farm!"

Yu Ci rolled her eyes: "Shut up!"

After entering the room, the door behind her closed tightly. Chu Jiangli, who was half sitting up, was imposing. She saw through the curtains and beads that her red string was tied to the fire fox, and she thought to herself: As expected...

"What do you want?" Chu Jiangli asked casually, as if she was talking about a trivial matter. She wanted to find out what the purpose of these two foxes was.

If anyone has the intention of harming Da Chu, she will definitely find a Taoist priest and kill him.

Yu Ci felt a sense of familiarity when she heard this voice that was slightly more childish than Li Jiang's. She held Hu Liu down and said, "We two have come down to earth to experience tribulations. We need to do 200 good deeds before we can attain enlightenment. I would like to ask you to arrange for someone to open a small clinic for us."

"We two will sit in command, the curtains will be closed, the merits will be fulfilled, and we will retire after completing our mission."

Hu Liu added: "And we need to have chicken to eat every day!"

Chu Jiangli was surprised. Is this the only wish?

"Nothing... ahem... anything else you want?" She was deeply ill, suffering from a spring cold, and her cough had not yet stopped.

Yu Ci scratched the ground with her claws twice and said awkwardly with concern: "The poison has been removed. You can boil loquat leaves to relieve your cough." She was just concerned because the other person looked very much like Li Jiang.

"No it beg."

Chu Jiangli waved his hand, and Qingyu took the two foxes out.

Kaifeng is an ancient capital and also a county town with a large population and many officials and merchants. The emperor sent her here to find out whether there is corruption in Kaifeng.

Chu Jiangli understood even more clearly that her nominal father only treated her as a useful knife. He wanted to build a large-scale project but was short of money.

She pretended to be on a business trip and never revealed her identity along the way, but she didn't expect that there was a traitor around her. She was intercepted by bandits and stabbed in the back by the traitor, who separated her from the team.

Kaifeng...

The Kaifeng Prefecture Governor is Defei's maternal family and also one of the third prince's relatives.

Chu Jiangli rubbed her brows. She had been exposed now, and it would be extremely difficult to investigate further, not to mention that she was still ill.

"Your Highness, take your medicine."

Qingyu brought over a dish of pitch-black medicinal soup, which contained Hu Liukai's warming and nourishing tonic, which needed to be consumed consistently for a month.

When Chu Jiangli saw it, he felt his tongue go numb. He wondered if the fox did it on purpose. Why was the medicine he prescribed so bitter?

She is only seventeen now, at the peak of her youth, and is most tired of these things.

"lay down."

"No, you have to drink it while it's hot, otherwise the medicinal properties will be lost." Qingyu's attitude was firm. Although she was Chu Jiangli's subordinate, she was also the guard left for Chu Jiangli by the former queen. She watched her grow up and sometimes treated her more like a sister.

Such as now.

Chu Jiangli rarely showed the emotions of a young girl. She frowned, took the medicine and drank it all in one gulp.

Then he quickly picked up the candied fruit on the plate and put it into his mouth.

"How are the two foxes?"

"The two fox fairies have already chosen a medicine shop, but... it's a new shop and not very famous."

Chu Jiangli lowered his head and said, "Go to the city and find those who are sick and have no money to treat them. Send them to the clinic and I will pay for the medicine."

"Yes."

Hu's Medical Clinic

Hu Liu jumped up and down behind the curtain, "Qiqi, what should we do if we have no business?!"

Yu Ci was much calmer. She had someone put up a notice behind the curtain at the entrance of the clinic. "The Hu family's medical canon has been passed down for three hundred years. It was originally passed down within the family, but now we see the suffering of the people!"

Alas! "

Today, the Hu sisters made a decision that goes against their ancestors! Practicing medicine to save the world!"

If you can’t cure me, I won’t charge you a penny!”

A middle-aged man who was suffering from severe abdominal pain on the roadside and was about to go to see Doctor Chang in the next street passed by the door and saw the words "If you don't cure me, I won't charge you a penny!" He touched the sackcloth on his body and turned into the clinic.

"Doctor! Is anyone there?"

There were two servants sitting in the clinic. There was a long curtain in the middle and a chair in front of the curtain. Apart from that, there was nothing else.

The waiter didn't expect that someone would actually come, so he perked up and said, "Sit here, sir. Doctors Hu will see you."

"People are coming!" Hu Liu calmed down.

Yu Ci took out the Medical Encyclopedia and scanned it, which showed that it was bacterial enteritis, probably caused by eating unclean food.

She asked, "But have you ever drunk raw water, or eaten stale food, or eaten spoiled food?"

The middle-aged man nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, I saw what the rebellious son left this morning. I thought it was a waste so I ate it."

Yu Ci was speechless. Food eaten three or four days ago would be fatal in an era when there were no refrigerators to keep things warm.

She followed the prescription given in the manual, selected a cheap and effective one, and reported it to the servant beside her.

The servant wrote it down, picked up the medicine from the cupboard and handed the medicine package over.

The middle-aged man looked even more nervous and asked, "How much will it cost?"

Yu Ci calculated the cost of the herbs and said, "Give me thirteen cents!"

"Thirteen coins?!"

The man was shocked. So little? It was only enough for half a day's living expenses? On weekdays, when I was sick and needed medicine, the consultation fee was ten cents! The medicine was charged separately.

It is impossible not to spend a hundred or eighty cents for one trip.

Now this medicine only costs thirteen cents!

In feudal society, the lives of the lower-class people were mostly barely adequate and clothed, and Yu Ci wondered if this was too much.

“Is that too much?” she asked.

The middle-aged man shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, no, I thought what the girl said outside the door was just bragging, but now it turns out that she is the reincarnation of a real Bodhisattva, and she actually went against the decision of her ancestors for the sake of the suffering of the people!"

"Old Chen is here, thank you, young lady!" He took out the copper coins from his arms, counted out fifteen, put them on the table, took the medicine and left.

Yu Ci stretched out her fox claws, quickly grabbed the copper coin, and put it on the table to play with it.

Most of the coins used by the common people in Great Chu were copper coins, which were divided into large copper coins and ordinary copper coins. Large copper coins had a higher copper content, were more golden, and were larger, while ordinary copper coins were slightly bluish, yellowish, and black, and were smaller.

One large copper coin is equal to ten small copper coins.

One tael of silver is equal to one hundred large copper coins and one thousand ordinary copper coins.

With these fifteen copper coins, you can buy a meter-long linen cloth at the market, a pair of the most ordinary cloth shoes, or seven candied haws that you only give to your children during festivals, and you will have one copper left to buy yourself a piece of malt sugar.

Yu Ci suddenly thought that the fundamental reason for the poverty of the ancient people was the oppression of productivity and class. She could not shake the class by herself, but productivity...

The loom Jenny that she had learned about in her middle school textbooks and many other technologies from the future came to her mind.

That is something that can truly change this era.

But now let’s talk about the human figure first!

Suddenly, more than a dozen people rushed in at the door, and the noise startled Yu Ci.
