My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

After Wei Shen left, Ji Yunshuang talked to Gao Lan about the medicinal herbs.

In addition to sourcing medicinal herbs from merchants and opening shops, Ji Yunshuang plans to establish her own medicinal herb cultivation base.

She happened to have bought quite a few estates, and could choose some to grow medicinal herbs.

After hearing Ji Yunshuang's words, Gao Lan was stunned for a moment, and asked in doubt, "Can medicinal herbs be grown?"

Beside him, Lu Yinheng also looked at Ji Yunshuang with deep, unfathomable eyes.

Looking at their expressions, Ji Yunshuang belatedly realized that medicinal herbs were not yet being cultivated on a large scale in this era!

No wonder there's such a shortage of medicine.

The medicinal herbs are all harvested from the wild, so the efficiency and yield are definitely not good.

She said, "If crops can be grown, why can't medicinal herbs be grown? The first person to grow crops certainly didn't succeed on the first try; he must have gone through many trials and errors before he succeeded."

We've just started planting, so we might fail, and we might not see results for the next two years. But from a long-term perspective, this is definitely a good thing.

Gao Lan suddenly realized, "Oh yeah! How come I never thought of that before?"

Not only did they not think of it, they never even considered it. They only ever complained, thinking that medicine was too expensive and that ordinary people like them simply couldn't afford to see a doctor.

But Ji Yunshuang could think of planting medicinal herbs.

Gao Lan once again admired Ji Yunshuang from the bottom of her heart; she was incredibly clever.

Lu Yinheng also looked intently at Ji Yunshuang. She truly was extraordinary.

He said, "We can gather some experienced medicinal herb farmers to cultivate them. They spend a lot of time collecting herbs in the deep mountains and have a better understanding of the growth habits of different herbs. They should be able to figure out the cultivation methods for different herbs more quickly."

Ji Yunshuang nodded and said, "Before planting, it's best to let them communicate more, record their insights, and then experiment with them in actual planting."

Her library actually contains many books on medicinal herbs. She could take them out and share them as a reference when the opportunity arises.

Gao Lan looked at Ji Yunshuang and Lu Yinheng with admiration, thinking that both of them were very smart.

She said, "Shall we go and post notices now, and look for the herb farmers?"

"This is our own business, and the government can't get involved in posting notices to hire people."

Ji Yunshuang said, "Moreover, some herb farmers may not be literate, so simply posting notices is a bit too simplistic."

Upon hearing Ji Yunshuang's words, Gao Lan immediately began to think.

She said, "Besides posting notices, we can also ask someone to introduce us."

As the saying goes, it's always easier to get things done if you know someone well.

In rural areas, people are more accustomed to introductions from acquaintances.

Gao Lan was outgoing and eloquent. She hadn't been at the estate for long, but she quickly became friends with everyone there.

She knew a little about each family's situation. After thinking for a while, she quickly remembered that someone in the village had a relative who worked as a clerk in the county clinic.

She quickly said, "I heard that the Zhang family's nephew from the east end works as a shop assistant in the largest clinic in Guangping County. I'll ask the Zhang family if they can help introduce some farmers who buy medicine from their shop."

Ji Yunshuang's eyes revealed a hint of admiration. As expected of the person she had chosen, he had already figured out the interpersonal relationships of each family in such a short time since arriving at the manor.

He's quick-witted.

She nodded, took a bag of silver and gave it to her, saying, "I'll leave this matter to you from now on."

Gao Lan quickly waved her hand, unwilling to accept the money Ji Yunshuang offered.

Ji Yunshuang said, "This is for you to do some errands, not for you. What's there to be embarrassed about accepting? Besides finding the herb farmers, I also need a batch of medicinal herbs recently."

Hearing her say this, Gao Lan accepted the money from Ji Yunshuang and said, "I will keep a detailed account of all expenses."

Ji Yunshuang didn't say any polite words of trust. Now that she was asking her to do things for her, there had to be rules. Everything had to be done according to the rules so that there wouldn't be any trouble later.

She gave her a list of the medicinal herbs she needed and said, "After you find a herb farmer, you can have them pick these herbs first, or you can ask someone to buy them from another place."

Even so, Ji Yunshuang knew that relying solely on farmers to collect herbs would not yield much.

The client has to travel to other places to buy them, which takes time, and with the current war and shortage of medicinal materials everywhere, they probably won't be able to buy much.

However, once she gets moving around, it will be easier for her to take the medicine out of her spatial storage.

Gao Lan took the order and readily agreed. Her mind was already racing, trying to figure out how to do the job Ji Yunshuang had asked her to do well.

Having said all that needed to be said, Ji Yunshuang should now leave.

Before leaving, she gave Gao Lan some masks and gloves, saying, "Remember to bring them when you go out on business."

When you get home, wash your hands frequently. Also, don't drink tap water at this time, and make sure everything is thoroughly cooked before eating..."

Ji Yunshuang told her a lot of ways to prevent bird flu in one go. The most important point was that if she felt unwell, she should send her a message in time and not try to tough it out.

She brought her from Jiangzhou to do her bidding, and naturally, she had to ensure the safety of her family.

*

As we left the mountain villa, the sun was already setting.

Ji Yunshuang and Lu Yinheng each rode a horse, moving slowly forward. Neither of them spoke, nor did they tacitly increase their speed.

Lu Yinheng was thinking about Ji Yunshuang's reaction that day.

When he first met her, she seemed very anxious and had something to say to him.

But she was visibly relieved when she saw the villagers suffering from the epidemic.

Why did I feel relieved?

In his view, this was the worst possible outcome. He couldn't understand why she seemed relieved after seeing that the villagers were suffering from the plague.

What did she think before?

Could it be that what she had thought of before was something more terrifying than the epidemic?

Is there anything more terrifying than an epidemic in this world?

Ji Yunshuang had no idea what he was thinking; if she did, she would probably burst out laughing.

Before the end times, large-scale epidemics were indeed considered terrible diseases in people's eyes.

But compared to the zombies and the mutations in plants and animals after the apocalypse, the plague is almost insignificant.

At least plagues can be controlled, but mutated insects, plants, and other organisms have almost destroyed the entire Earth, leaving no place for humans to live.

Therefore, in Ji Yunshuang's view, as long as it wasn't caused by some kind of insect, it was a minor matter.

After all, for people of this era, a plague could be a catastrophe. But for Ji Yunshuang, who had survived the apocalypse for ten years, controlling the plague was not difficult.

In the apocalypse, people don't just use force to survive in such harsh environments.

They also need to do everything possible to improve technology.

Some technologies that only exist in science fiction movies have become a reality in this post-apocalyptic world.
