"That depends on Yu Xiu."

When Han Yuxiu heard that she had suddenly pointed at his head, he opened his eyes and looked at her: "Speak."

"I can tell from Xiao Si's apparent distress that there's probably an outbreak of disease on the border, and they're afraid it will spread to the towns here, which is why they're not allowing us to leave the house."

"Where did you get this inside information?" Fang Yuerong frowned. Although he was a businessman who was not without cunning, he didn't like making money off such shady things.

"Don't look at me with that contemptuous look. Yu Xiu can easily cure that little illness. We just need to add some medicinal herbs to the water. Besides, this is a medicinal spring. If everyone wants to live, it wouldn't be too much for me to sell it for a tael of gold."

"What you're doing is disregarding the lives of ordinary people!" Han Yuxiu was the first to object.

Fang Yuerong also fell silent. He disdained making such dirty money. Wu Ziyan patted the two of them on the shoulder: "But did I say I wanted to sell for one or two taels of gold?"

Both of them looked at her at the same time: "They only need to pick up a registration booklet at the first point of the boundary to get free water, but they must write down their occupation and average income in the registration booklet."

"Oh, so now you can use the data to investigate what they sell the most within the country, right?"

"It's always you; nothing can escape your mind."

"So you're going to do charity?"

"The tariffs will still be collected, but only after we get through the water shortage. Once we've saved their lives, they're unlikely to repay kindness with ingratitude, right?"

"Moreover, I suspect that soon someone will be begging us for help."

As soon as Wu Ziyan finished speaking, the system's voice reached his mind: the groundwater detector was already in a certain shop, and he could just go and get it. The formula for the antidote powder was also in a certain pharmacy.

With these things provided by the system, she felt much more confident in her work. She stood up and said she was going to get something, telling the two of them not to follow her. They were obedient, but as soon as Wu Ziyan left, Du Lan started wandering around the streets, looking at the two of them as if they were her saviors.

Of course, the most important thing was seeing Han Yuxiu. Du Lan's face was solemn. She walked over and knelt down in front of Han Yuxiu: "Young Master Yuxiu, please save our young master!"

Both men were taken aback. They were dressed in the uniforms of the Northern Desert army. What was going on? Han Yuxiu asked, "General Dulan, get up quickly. What do you mean by saving my life?"

“Our young master heard that there was a plague on the border, so he went to the pastoral area to check it out. As a result, he was also infected and now has a high fever. He keeps muttering that he wants to see Young Master Yu Xiu. I heard that you are also skilled in medicine, so I have dared to ask you to save our young master’s life.”

Fang Yuerong listened from the side, wondering what was going on. Young Master? Young Master Yu Xiu? Their young master likes Young Master Yu Xiu!

He finally came to this conclusion, staring at Han Yuxiu with utter shock in his eyes: "My little brother Yuxiu, you've really got some tricks up your sleeve!"

Looking at Fang Yuerong's distorted eyes, he knew that Fang Yuerong had already imagined ten dramatic scenarios in his mind. After these two days of contact, he knew that Fang Yuerong was the kind of man who was very guarded, intelligent and dramatic.

"Please, gentlemen, come to my residence immediately!"

Before the two of them could say anything, they were "invited" onto the carriage. Inside the carriage, Han Yuxiu kindly handed Fang Yuerong a face towel, since she had contracted febrile disease and it was contagious, so some precautions were necessary.

After Wu Ziyan went to those places to retrieve the tools and read the instructions, he returned to the original place and found that the two people were no longer there.

Xiao Si had specifically instructed the patrolling soldiers to pay close attention to their movements. When he saw Wu Ziyan wandering the street with a large bag of things, he quickly went up to ask her about it.

Wu Ziyan first asked about their whereabouts, and finally told them that they had been taken to the Dulan Mansion.

Wu Ziyan had known for a long time that Dulan and the others belonged to the Northern Desert, and that the febrile disease originated from their area. She wondered if someone had been infected. She had thought they would come to Han Yuxiu for help, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly!

"That's so unsportsmanlike!"

She wanted to instruct her subordinates to take the items back to Xiao Si's residence, but she didn't trust any of them, so in the end she carried the items back herself. Yue'er was frantic at the door, because the three of them hadn't taken him with them when they went out.

"Miss Ziyan, why didn't our young master come back with you?"

"Oh, him? He went to the General's mansion for a banquet." He said it casually, then tossed him his things: "When the young general comes back, tell him that there are detailed instructions inside. Tell him to go to the damp soil to the north and look down. If there is water, there is a red candle that will light up."

"Miss Ziyan, where are you going? Could you take me with you?"

"You should stay here and watch the house. I'm going to join the banquet next door!"

Yue'er touched her head. [What does "抱席" mean?] But since Wu Ziyan wouldn't take him out, she had no choice but to obey her orders.

The Dulan household was in a flurry of activity. Everyone was wearing face masks and carrying basins of water, going in and out. It seemed that something big had happened. When she came in, no one paid any attention to her.

Upon entering, I saw Dulan Town sitting on a stone bench, looking extremely distressed, his eyes constantly glancing towards the doorway of a room.

Wu Ziyan walked over and sat down next to her. Du Lan was surprised to see that it was Wu Ziyan. She knew that he had taken the person away, but he came to her door so quickly.

"I'm sorry, I took the two young masters away without your permission, but our young master is waiting to be saved."

"Well, then what?"

Wu Ziyan picked up the teapot on the table, poured herself a cup of water, and leisurely drank it. Why was Du Lan so confused? Then: "Please enlighten me, young lady."

"They kidnapped my people without my consent. First, they should compensate me for emotional distress. Second, our Han Yuxiu charges a high consultation fee. Pay up, including the 100 gold coins from last time."

"you!"

"What do you mean 'you'? Just give me 110 gold. I'm not greedy, and the person inside must be someone important, right? He's not even worth ten gold?"
