A war was about to break out, and the entire capital suddenly became solemn.

The Ministry of Industry expanded its recruitment and launched a massive steel production campaign. A special military equipment supervisory bureau was established to manufacture crossbows and arrows.

Song Chunsheng and other young men of the Jin generation ended their vacation early and returned to the recruit camp.

Song Jinxiu received news in advance that her brothers might have to escort the first batch of food and supplies to the front line, and once the war broke out, there would be many dangers.

Song Jinxiu wanted to keep her brothers and others, even if it meant sending them to the Ministry of Works.

She doesn't care whether others will say that she abuses her power for personal gain. If she can't even protect her own people, what's the point of her being an official?

But my brother and all the clan brothers seemed to have been brainwashed. They were all very excited and determined to go to southern Xinjiang, swearing to defend the country to the death and make great achievements.

There was no other way, Song Jinxiu had to personally prepare armor, war horses, and cavalry spears for them.

Being a cavalryman is always safer than being an infantryman.

He also used the only remaining box of Kevlar fabric in the space to make bulletproof vests for several people. They wore them under the armor to maximize their safety.

Plasters, wound remedies, and anti-inflammatory drugs were plentiful for everyone. Everyone also had a hard-to-find telescope. She even gave everyone a peace charm she had drawn with her own spiritual power.

The news of several people going to the battlefield was kept secret from Tian Xinghua and the others, so Song Jinxiu also prepared these things secretly.

She instructed, "Brothers fight together, and fathers and sons fight together. On the battlefield, brothers must stick together. Safety is paramount. As long as you do it with a clear conscience and act with urgency, I can cover for you even if you desert."

Song Jinyou covered the amulet in his arms, sniffed, and said in a muffled voice: "Chief, I know you are good to me, but don't worry, I, Song Jinyou, am not a coward and I will not be a deserter."

Everyone also said with red eyes: "Don't worry, clan leader, there are no cowards in our Song family, we will not be deserters."

Oh my god, Song Jinxiu held her forehead, "No, I'm saying, brothers, don't you understand what I mean?"

Song Chunsheng smiled and said, "I understand what you mean. You mean, 'A general is not subject to military orders when he is away from home,' right? Don't worry, I will adapt to the actual situation."

Looking at everyone's determined gaze, Song Jinxiu suddenly felt that anything she said would be redundant.

"Well, then I wish my brothers a speedy and triumphant return."

With the sound of trumpets, the first batch of food and fodder set out south on the sixth day of the first lunar month. That same day, a frontier war report was released: war had broken out.

The news of Song Chunsheng going to the battlefield was hidden from Tian Xinghua, but not from Song Sanzhu.

This scumbag father held his son's hand and cried bitterly. He almost sat on the ground and acted like a scoundrel, not letting his son leave.

I have seen sons and grandchildren crying and making a fuss about not wanting to leave their grandparents, but I have never seen a father crying and clinging to his son like this.

Seeing her brother's eyes reddened by his scumbag father's tears, Song Jinxiu said impatiently, "How about I sign you up and you follow my brother and the others to the battlefield?"

Go to the battlefield? With his old arms and legs, wouldn't he be a hindrance to his son?

Song Sanzhu stopped crying immediately. Old Song's peach blossom eyes blinked, shed a few tears, and then he calmed down.

Song Jinxiu: ...

Humph! The scumbag dad is still the same scumbag dad, just a coward.

With her brothers going to the battlefield, Song Jinxiu became even busier.

War is fought for money!

Food, fodder and medicine must be delivered to the front line.

Do your job well and fulfill your responsibilities in your position.

As a first-rank official, Song Jinxiu's pharmaceutical factory also suspended the production of other pills and switched to hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs such as Zhixue Dingsang Pills, Sanqi Zhixue Pills, Lianqiao Baidu Pills, and Xianfang Huoming Drink.

Because people in southern Xinjiang are good at using poison, and because it is hot and humid there, and there are many poisonous insects and ants, all kinds of detoxification pills are produced overtime.

Song Jinxiu Pharmaceutical Factory's entire purpose is for the front line. They only charge the lowest price for pills. They are not doing it for profit, but just to earn enough to pay the workers' wages.

It was at this time that the Zaichuntang Pharmaceutical Factory, which had been half-dead, suddenly emerged and quickly occupied the market for pills in Beijing.

Zaichuntang is the pill factory opened by Cui Zixuan and the Li family.

It has been open for two months. At the beginning, business was okay due to promotions and price cuts, but later on business became bleak.

It’s not that their pills are so bad, it’s mainly because Song Jinxiu’s Jindan Pharmacy has become famous early on, and her pills are of guaranteed quality and genuine.

Therefore, many clinics and patients are regular customers. Unless there is a problem with the Golden Elixir Pharmacy, they will not consider switching to another one. After all, when it comes to imported medicine, efficacy and reputation are the most important.

Cui Zixuan thought of many ways, and finally came up with something like a male enhancement pill, which increased sales.

However, the good times didn't last long. The drug administration found that the powerful pills were banned and harmful to the body. Several other pills were also found to have problems.

For this reason, Zaichuntang was closed down, fined and rectified, and did not reopen until the end of the year.

Some foresighted aristocratic families began to stockpile medicine as soon as the war started, so the stock of pills in the Jindan Pharmacy was quickly sold out.

Therefore, for some common illnesses, Jindan Pharmacy started to boil bitter medicine again.

After taking pills, who would want to take bitter medicine? Since Jindan Pharmacy is out of pills, I can just go to Zaichuntang to buy them.

As a result, Zaichuntang's business became unprecedentedly booming.

Cui Zixuan finally felt proud of herself.

Humph! Song Jinxiu, you bitch, you want to fight me? Who will have the last laugh?

Junjun: "That woman named Xing Cui has raised the price of her pills. There are so many people lining up to buy them. Tsk tsk tsk, don't you see how proud she is?"

Junjun paced back and forth in the space with his furry tail raised, his little black eyes rolled up to the sky.

During the war, prices rose, especially food and medicine, the prices of which almost doubled.

Song Jinxiu said, "It's okay, just let her jump around for a few more days."

Junjun, the treasure-hunting rat, grinned and gnashed his fangs. His small black eyes sparkled as he asked, "Is the master going to deal with her?"

Song Jinxiu narrowed her eyes and said, "Those who profit from the national crisis must be punished. Are there any movements from the grain merchants in the capital?"

Treasure Hunter Rat Junjun immediately became interested and said, "The price of most things has increased, but after all, it's under the imperial city, so the price of food hasn't increased much, and the people are still relatively stable."

It smacked its lips, propped up its chin with its paws in a humane manner, and said, imitating Song Jinxiu's thoughtful expression:

“But I discovered a strange phenomenon, that is the Ji family.

The Ji family's grain store in the capital has not raised prices, but only sells three dan of grain per day, and each person is limited to purchasing two kilograms."

Song Jinxiu nodded: "Well, it seems that this Ji family is not bad."

Treasure Hunter Junjun snorted, "Tsk, what's so good about that? Half of the people who went to buy food were his own people.

Master, you said they have so much food in stock, why don't they sell it now while the price is high? Why is he pretending to sell it himself?"

Song Jinxiu raised her eyebrows, "Of course I'm pretending to be a good person!"
