During my escape from famine, I survived by eavesdropping on the whispers of food.

Looking at the three thick memorials in Qin Shuang's hands, Lu Jun couldn't help but ask, "Have you thought this through? If you throw these memorials up there, their Khan will probably throw them back at you. The demands they're making are a bit too much. Wouldn't it be better if you just made them hand over all their military power?"

Jin Danian understood Lu Jun's teasing words. He stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, then smiled nonchalantly, "It's normal for a young girl to have such thoughts. Besides, she's going to risk the lives of tens of millions of soldiers. The conditions she's setting are things they can meet. Over the years, the Waler people have been killing and looting everywhere. I think they can also meet the conditions Miss Qin is setting now. Why not let her give it a try?"

"If they agree, that's fine. But if they don't, and force Qin Shuangshuang to save their lives, rest assured, the ten soldiers I've sent are more than enough to carve a bloody path for you."

Qin Shuangshuang couldn't help but open the document she had just written and glance at it. It contained dozens of boxes of gold and dozens of boxes of silver, things that would make her extremely happy.

Immediately, Jin Danian arranged for people to escort them back to the enemy's camp.

Upon seeing the familiar carriage, the soldiers at the gate rushed forward to greet Qin Shuangshuang with utmost respect, saying, "Miss Qin, you're finally back! You have no idea how long we've been eagerly awaiting your return."

Qin Shuangshuang said, "I've only been back for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Do you really miss me that much?"

The officers and soldiers looked at each other, saying nothing more. One of them gestured for her to come forward and said, "The Khan is already waiting for you in his tent. Please come over and ask him questions."

Qin Shuangshuang and Lu Jun went in one after the other. Once inside, the Khan lay down on the animal skin couch and looked at the two people opposite him.

He tried to sit up quickly, but he felt weak all over. Qin Shuangshuang looked at him and saw that he was covered in sweat. She knew that he had probably caught a bad cold.

Qin Shuangshuang then said to him, "You don't need to sit up and talk to us, just lie there."

"Great Khan, we have now brought you a list of what we desire. After you have read through these three documents and are certain you can agree to them, I will begin treating the sick and saving lives."

Seeing that Qin Shuangshuang had actually gone back and seriously discussed it with her family, Tie Yi smiled slightly. He knew that Qin Shuangshuang had probably come prepared.

Then, the attendant beside her took the three memorials from her hands and presented them to her.

When you open the iron box, you see a dense pile of various kinds of things, including silk, cloth, and more.

He was dazzled by the sight, but fortunately, he could accept these things anyway. In addition, they had previously plundered some things from Zhongyuan, so these things were essentially being returned. They could only add a few things themselves, probably not too many.

He then placed the memorial aside and said to them, "I can agree to all these things, Miss Qin. Now, do you think it's possible to treat the soldiers of my army?"

Qin Shuangshuang thought for a moment, and seeing how easily he agreed, she stepped forward and looked at his face covered in sweat, and said to him, "It can cure the illness, but it will take effort, manpower and money to go deep into the mountains to find some medicinal herbs. I have specific medicinal herbs in mind, but now, I see that you don't seem to have many here. Now that we can get to the eastern route, what should we do?"

Qin Shuangshuang deliberately touched her chin, then thought for a moment, and pretended to be like this.

Lu Jun was curious. They had brought some people from their own military camp with them, and now Qin Shuangshuang looked like she was negotiating with that powerful figure again.

With a slight frown and knowing her intentions, and considering that Qin Shuangshuang had come to save his life, he had no choice but to speak directly to Qin Shuangshuang, saying, "Miss, what do you want? Just say it."

Seeing that he was sensible, Qin Shuangshuang didn't hesitate to start calculating, saying, "Regarding manpower and financial resources, you'll need to give me two more chests of gold. Don't worry, I'll definitely find the most efficient people for manpower."

"Find those medicinal herbs quickly so I can brew the soup for you. Otherwise, with my limited medical skills, how could I have saved the lives of your thousands upon thousands of soldiers so quickly?"

Upon realizing that a purchase was indeed necessary, Tie had no objections and nodded in agreement. He then instructed the soldiers to retrieve two boxes of gold from the warehouse for Qin Shuangshuang.

Soon, Qin Shuangshuang was dazzled by the sight of all the gold. Overjoyed, she turned to the man in front of her and said again, "Great Khan, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter for you, completely obediently. I will go and recruit people to come with me up the mountain to get the medicinal herbs."

Seeing the two of them leave, You Yitie said to his attendant, "I'm really worried. Have someone follow them and see what kind of medicinal herbs they've gathered. If they seem to have enough, we can send our own people to collect them later. We can't let them get away with this so easily."

However, if they see that they've been gathering poisonous herbs, come back and tell me immediately. I certainly won't believe them anymore. But thinking about it carefully, there's no need to worry too much, since I haven't given them what they want yet.

The attendant nodded and bowed to the man with iron, saying, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will take care of it right away."

Seeing the attendant beside him leave, he adjusted the thumb ring on his finger.

He wondered if this little girl, Qin Shuangshuang, could really save the lives of all his soldiers.

……

Qin Shuangshuang led the dozen or so elite soldiers assigned to her by Jin Danian's army camp up the mountain to collect medicinal herbs.

Qin Shuangshuang arrived at the area where she usually collected Isatis root, and then heard a lot of murmurs.

"It's her! It's her! It's that wretched woman! Look what she's done! She's dragged all our descendants into that military camp! How hateful!"

"That's right! Everyone, please stop talking! What if it happens again in a moment? Let's shut up!"

"Exactly! Our descendants have already been wiped out. If we are also dragged out, isn't she simply trying to lower our birth rate?!"

"Fortunately, our cousins ​​in the east and south are still alive. Otherwise, what would we do if she found out?"

East and south?

Qin Shuangshuang instantly locked onto those two locations, then pointed to them, "Quickly, that area, go there and search."

Lu Jun asked her curiously, "That area doesn't look like it has any herbs growing there at all. Are you sure?"

Qin Shuangshuang affirmed, "Don't worry, if I say it's there, then it definitely is there."

Before long, a soldier grabbed a handful of Isatis root herbs from the snowdrift and said to Qin Shuangshuang, "There are so many herbs here!"

Lu Jun's shocked gaze swept across her face. "I have roamed the martial world for so many years and am most sensitive to herbs, but I never expected that one day I would find that you, a young woman, are far more perceptive than I am. It would be a real pity if you did not go on to treat and save lives in the future."
