According to Xu Linzhi, there were only five or six days left before the border riot.

Because she remembered very clearly that when those people suddenly launched the attack, our officers and soldiers were busy preparing for the New Year.

Without further ado, Qi Siyuan arranged for people to raise supplies and at the same time wrote a secret letter and had someone send it out.

Other matters were left to these ministers to handle, and Qi Siyuan hurried to the emperor's Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

No matter what, he had to talk to his father about this matter first. Although he was a prince, it was a taboo for him to mobilize troops privately. Moreover, to mobilize troops, he needed to show the military order in the emperor's hand.

Unexpectedly, he went there but found nothing. The emperor was not in the Yangxin Palace. Only Eunuch Xing and his men were left guarding the door, and he was told not to let anyone in.

In desperation, Qi Siyuan had to take his men out of the palace. He first arranged for someone to guard Xu Linzhi, and then took a carriage to Yuxiu's house.

There will definitely be casualties in a war, so it is necessary to have some high-quality medicines in reserve.

It was just right that he could tell Yuxiu about Xu Linzhi's situation and see if she had any good ideas to share.

"Hahaha...Brother Yan is really generous. This is my home. Next time if you have any problems, just come over directly..."

As soon as Qi Siyuan's carriage stopped at the door of Yuxiu's house, he heard a burst of laughter coming from behind, and the voice sounded like Xu Qinghe.

There were quite a few people coming over after hearing the noise, so Qi Siyuan didn't get off the carriage. He simply sat in the carriage and waited, thinking of getting off after the outsiders left.

"Then we have settled this matter. I will come to see you tomorrow, and you must bring me the pills..."

Then a familiar man's voice sounded. Qi Siyuan's heart was shocked. With trembling hands, he opened the curtain of the carriage a little. Sure enough, he saw a figure that he was very familiar with climbing down from the carriage.

"Why don't I ask someone to take you back..."

"No, no, no, it's just a few steps away, just go in, I'm leaving..."

While the two were still arguing, the servants of the Xu family came back in several carriages, opened the gate, and moved all the pots, pans, and utensils into the mansion one by one.

Haha... isn't it just a matter of a few steps?

Who knows how many people are waiting in their carriages on the street outside.

Qi Siyuan was speechless and sat quietly in the carriage until things outside gradually quieted down.

"It's really you. I thought this carriage looked familiar."

Yuxiu had come out to see Xu Qinghe and his group returning, but she didn't expect to see the carriage parked there for a long time.

"Let's talk about it inside..."

Yuxiu invited them, saying that although this was an alley and not many people walked here, since they had come to her doorstep, there was no reason to refuse them entry.

"Come up, I have something important to tell you. Just a few words."

Qi Siyuan's mind was filled with the image of his father climbing down from the carriage, so he had no time to think about anything else.

He roughly told the news he got from Xu Linzhi.

"The capital is so cold, so it goes without saying that the border further north is also covered in snow. We plan to bring some supplies with us."

It is said that food and fodder must be prepared before troops move out. Although natural disasters have occurred frequently in the past two years, the Yuan Dynasty, from the emperor to the civil and military officials, has been quite diligent, so a lot of food and fodder have been stored, which can last for a while.

The most important things are the medicinal materials. He had taken several kinds of pills from Yuxiu's house back and had someone send them to his people for testing. Naturally, they passed safely.

"Like some kind of cold medicine, wound medicine, painkiller..."

Qi Siyuan took out a list from his sleeve, which listed a long list of medicines, basically including all the medicines needed for battlefield first aid.

"You guys make these things first. There are still some missing medicinal materials in the treasury. Just send someone to get them when the time comes. Also, we won't let anyone work in vain. These are deposits. When you come to get the medicine later, send the remaining banknotes over..."

Yuxiu listened quietly. When she learned that she heard this from Xu Linzhi, she understood what was going on.

Since she couldn't help with anything else, she might as well help make these medicines.

"Then make them all into pills and powders, which will be very convenient for storage and transportation. Once they are there, the effects will be even better."

Yuxiu agreed without hesitation. Not to mention that the other party had agreed to give her money, even if he didn't give her anything, she couldn't just stand by and watch.

Qi Siyuan left very quickly. Yuxiu knew that he still had a lot of things to do, so she did not try to keep him and went back to discuss the matter with Xu Qinghe and Cui.

"My daughter did the right thing. When the nest is overturned, no one will be left unbroken. It would be great if we could help out a bit."

Xu Qinghe felt a little anxious. King Ning Xu Jinren had been missing for a long time. Xu Jinyi and Xu Jinren's two sons were all at the border. They were his blood relatives, so he naturally didn't want anything to happen to them.

"Don't think too much about it. All we can do now is to help make these medicines."

Cui was also a little nervous and patted Xu Qinghe's arm, trying to ease his mood.

Fortunately, because of the preparation of the pharmacy these days, a large number of pills are made every day, and the medicinal materials collected before are also sufficient.

She also asked someone to contact the medicinal herb merchants and ask them to send in a large batch of medicinal herbs.

These were left to Yuxiu to handle. If there was something that the herbal medicine dealer didn't have, she would secretly exchange it from the system mall, then put it in the big warehouse over there, and then have someone get it back.

She also exchanged a new batch of materials needed for medicine making and placed them in Uncle Cui's yard.

There are many vacant houses over there, and a lot of medicinal herbs have already been piled up there, so there’s no need to move them around.

Now that everything is ready, what is most lacking is manpower.

The people in the farm outside the city were still busy working on the coal stove and it was not easy to call them over. Besides, it was not very convenient to run back and forth.

Finally, after a discussion, they decided to hire some people to do the work first.

Xu Qinghe had already thought of the candidates, and he would invite them from among the poor people in the north of the city.

It's just a simple job like helping to grind medicinal herbs, so there's no need to worry that these people won't be able to learn it.

As for the important links in the middle, of course they cannot be seen by others, so they have to be done by the people in the mansion.

Of course, these are not difficult problems and can be solved quickly.
