Shen Li took out the only ten taels of silver from the box, shook it in his hand, then put it in his pocket and walked out: "Now the most urgent thing is to find a way to earn money and then leave the palace. After all, only with money can I have the confidence to see this beautiful ancient landscape."

But, how can I make this money?

Even though I have medical skills, I can't just pull someone up on the street and ask them if they are sick and then say, "If you are sick, I will treat you."

It would be strange if he wasn't beaten to death as a madman.

"Let's go to the street and look for an opportunity first." Shen Li walked out of the house and onto the street.

……

"What? That bitch left the house?"

Lin Wanrou got up from the bed, tidied her clothes, and touched up her makeup again.

Lu'e said, "Yes, just now the servant came to report that she had swaggered out of the mansion. Since the prince has lifted her house arrest order, the servants did not dare to stop her. Master, how about we send someone to keep an eye on her and see what trouble she gets up to next?"

Lin Wanrou's eyes rolled as she looked in the bronze mirror and put on the last hairpin: "Prepare the car! I'll go and see what she's going out for!"

Jinxiu Street in the west of the city.

This is a very prosperous street. Most of the shops on this street are engaged in silk and cloth business, with a wide variety of silks.

When Shen Li was walking around the street, he suddenly saw a small stall selling masks. Thinking of the scars on both sides of his cheeks, he walked over and bought a butterfly-shaped mask that just happened to cover the scars, and paid for it.

Then she looked up at the doorways of the two rows of shops, found a cloth store that caught her eye, and walked in.

The shop assistant greeted Shen Li warmly: "Madam, what kind of fabric would you like to buy? The fabrics in our store are all of the highest quality."

Shen Li looked around the entire store and finally fixed his eyes on the ready-made clothes.

"I don't want to buy fabric, I want to buy ready-made clothes."

The guy smiled and said that it was better to buy ready-made clothes, as the profit of ready-made clothes was much higher than that of cloth.

"Madam, please look! These are the latest styles of ready-made clothes in our store, made of the finest materials. Please feel them..."

Shen Li shook his head and interrupted him: "I want to buy men's ready-made clothes."

If you want to make money outside, it is more convenient to be a man.

The guy was stunned and stood there for a moment with his mouth open.

What these cloth shops sell most are colorful fabrics suitable for sewing women's clothes. Women have always loved beauty since ancient times.

The sales of dark-colored fabrics suitable for men's clothing are much lower.

The same goes for ready-made clothes.

Sometimes not a single piece of men's ready-made clothing is sold in a day.

Therefore, there are very few men's ready-made clothes in the store, and they are placed in inconspicuous places.

"Is there?" Shen Li asked.

The guy came back to his senses, and the smile on his face faded a little: "Over there."

After saying that, he went to greet the new guests with a smile, completely leaving Shen Li aside.

Shen Li was not annoyed. She had important things to do, so why would she get angry with such a person?

Soon, Shen Li picked out a light blue men's ready-to-wear suit and walked into the fitting room to put it on.

Then she untied the simple bun on her head and tied her hair up high like a man. Finally, she took off her veil and put on the butterfly-shaped mask she had just bought.

After everything was ready, she walked out of the fitting room. Her originally frail body had gained some heroic spirit. Although not as masculine as a man, she had a different kind of beauty.

"Boss, how much is this dress?" She suppressed her nasal tone to make her voice sound more like a man's.

When you put on men's clothes, your voice will naturally change.

The shopkeeper: "?"

After Shen Li asked this question, she saw the shopkeeper looking at her blankly, as if he didn't understand what she said at all.

She suddenly realized she had said it wrong. These ancient people probably didn't understand the meaning of the word "money." After all, the common currency in ancient times was gold, silver, and copper coins. How could they refer to it directly as "money"? So she immediately changed her words: "How much silver is this dress worth?"

The shopkeeper finally realized what was happening and quickly replied, "This suit of clothing you're wearing costs eight taels and two cents."

Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he had enough silver with him.

"I want it." She walked to the counter, paid the money, took the packed skirt she had changed into, and walked out of the store under the surprised gaze of the shopkeeper.

Shen Li walked aimlessly, thinking about how to make money, and his eyes kept scanning the various small items displayed on the street stalls.

Shen Li couldn't help but feel moved: I seem to be missing a pendant.

At this moment, she heard a childish and clear voice calling out from the front: "Beautiful and fragrant sachets, they can cure diseases, repel insects and prevent odor. Don't miss them if you pass by. Come and have a look, take a look..."

Shen Li looked in the direction of the sound and saw a little girl, about seven or eight years old, standing in front of a stall, shouting with all her might. The girl was very pretty, with large, bright eyes and pigtails, making her look particularly adorable. On the stall in front of her were many brightly colored and variously shaped sachets, emitting a pleasant aroma.

Shen Li walked forward and gently picked up a white sachet embroidered with bamboo. He smelled it and found it had a very fresh scent. He opened it and took a look. There were two cheap medicinal herbs inside: mugwort and cloves.

"Little sister, how much is this sachet?"

"Five cents each." said the little girl, blinking her big watery eyes.

"Brother, the color of this sachet matches your clothes very well, please buy it."

elder brother……

Shen Li curled her lips and smiled: "Okay, I'll buy it." She took out the silver and handed it to the little girl, then tied the sachet around her waist.

"Something happened, something happened, the child's throat is stuck..."

Just then, a burst of rapid shouting came from the front.

"Doctor, doctor! Is there a doctor here?"

Hearing this shout, the originally noisy street suddenly became quiet, and everyone turned their eyes to the direction where the sound came from.

"What's going on? What happened?"

"It seems a child has something stuck in his throat and is in critical condition."

Everyone was talking about it, with worried looks on their faces.

"Go find a doctor quickly! Otherwise the child will be in danger!" someone shouted anxiously.
