Dressed as the villain's stepmother

If there is a shortage of people, they can recruit a group of people in the village, but now if they want to supply in large quantities, the biggest problem they face is that there is not enough land.

The few remaining open spaces in the village are not suitable for planting. Even if they ask Li Zheng to get those pieces of land, it will not give them any advantage.

Liu Liide was silent for a long time before he suggested again: "Sister Jiang, I think you might consider going to the next village to have a look and talk to the local villagers about the supply of medicinal materials."

"What happened in the next village?" Jiang Lianzhu narrowed her eyes and asked in confusion.

"There was a famine over there some time ago, and now everyone in the village is extremely poor. Li Zheng has asked us to give some of our food reserves to them, but it still doesn't help."

Aunt Liu's expression changed slightly, and she explained in a low voice the current situation in the village next door.

A famine over there happened so suddenly that it was hard to tell whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster.

All I know is that it was almost going to spread to them.

Jiang Lianzhu nodded, indicating that she understood, and motioned for Liu Lide to continue.

"If you can provide them with enough food, then they will definitely be willing to plant some herbs in the village. I checked out their village accidentally before, and the few pieces of wasteland they have not yet cultivated are suitable for them. Planting herbs, and there are many men in the village, I don’t have to worry about finding anyone to do this work.”

Liu Lide added, and after finishing speaking, he grabbed a handful of herbs from the basket behind him and placed it in Jiang Lianzhu's hand.

"I bought these when I went to their village before, and they are definitely not worse than the ones here."

Jiang Lianzhu lowered his head and glanced at the herb in his hand. It was indeed a thick stem with thick leaves. It would be in good condition to be sold in the city.

If she could negotiate this cooperation with the people in the next village, she would really not have to worry about the lack of supply of the medicinal materials needed in the capital.

Jiang Lianzhu put the herbs back into the basket and said with a chuckle: "Brother Li De, thank you for reminding me this time, otherwise I wouldn't have thought that I would be able to do this!"

"What a big deal!" Liu Lide waved his hand, "When do you plan to go, tell me first, and I will show you a shortcut. You can get there in about half a day."

"Okay, let's not rush this matter until tomorrow morning." Jiang Lianzhu responded, and after saying a few words, he left and went to the county town instead.

She was in a hurry on her trip to the capital and handed over the medical clinic directly to Zhao Ruyue and several medicine boys she had recruited.

To put it bluntly, she was unsure of how the medical clinic was doing at the moment.

When Jiang Lianzhu walked into the hospital, Zhao Ruyue was examining a woman. After taking her pulse, she gave her diagnosis result neatly.

"After taking the previous two doses of medicine, the effect was good, and there are no major problems with the body. The only thing to note is that you must have enough rest time on weekdays, otherwise it will be difficult to avoid contracting the disease again."

Zhao Ruyue warned, and after finishing speaking, she wrote down a prescription and gave it to the little medicine boy standing aside to grab the medicine.

The mother-in-law nodded repeatedly when she heard what Zhao Ruyue said, as if she had met a living Bodhisattva: "I have remembered everything the girl just said. If I finish this medicine, there will be nothing else in my body." If there is a problem, do you no longer need to come to the hospital?"

"Yes, if you feel you are already comfortable, then there is no need to come to the hospital again." Zhao Ruyue replied patiently, and handed over the packets of medicine handed over by the little medicine boy to the mother-in-law without taking a penny. Let the mother-in-law leave.

When she raised her head again, she met the eyes of Jiang Lianzhu who was standing not far away, and her eyes dodged for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Lianzhu approached Zhao Ruyue and asked patiently.

She did have a clear view of everything she did just now, but she didn't mean to blame people too much.

Zhao Ruyue pursed her lips slightly, not knowing how much Jiang Lianzhu had seen, so she subconsciously explained: "I just deliberately didn't accept the money from that grandma. When she came to the hospital to see a doctor a few times, she couldn't put it together. I can only take out a little money, and I deliberately confiscated it this time... I will use my own money to make up for the empty money in the account."

"It doesn't matter, I won't argue with you about these things, not to mention that grandma is indeed not very wealthy, so she just thinks that she is doing good deeds for our medical center." Jiang Lianzhu said lightly, and really didn't intend to mention it again. this matter.

Several more people taking medicine came in one after another.

The little medicine boys were not here to listen to the two of them gossiping, and they all started to entertain the guests.

Jiang Lianzhu asked Zhao Ruyue to take out the recently prescribed prescriptions. After reading them from beginning to end, Jiang Lianzhu felt relieved and returned a stack of paper to her.

"You are really good at treating patients, and the houses you open are also excellent."

"Miss Jiang is joking." Zhao Ruyue moved her lips, as if she was a little embarrassed, "I wonder if she has any plans to expand the medicine field. If she has such an idea, I can introduce someone to her."

She took advantage of Jiang Lianzhu's absence to inquire about it.

Jiang Lianzhu has a sealed medicinal field in the village, and the herbs grown are specially used to supply her three medical clinics.

This was the only information she could learn. Naturally, she had no way of knowing how big the medicine field was, and whether Jiang Lianzhu had any ambition to open a medical clinic elsewhere.

Jiang Lianzhu's eyes changed slightly when she heard this. She didn't expect someone to hand her a pillow since she was sleepy now.

The words Zhao Ruyue said happened to hit her heart.

"Tsk, it's a coincidence that you asked this. I plan to open a medical clinic in the capital next, but there is indeed trouble in the supply of medicinal materials. If you can introduce me to a reliable one, then Of course it’s good.”

"Seriously what the girl said?" Zhao Ruyue's eyes widened and she leaned forward a little.

"Natural." Jiang Lianzhu affirmed.

Zhao Ruyue got an affirmative answer and couldn't wait to ask: "When will that girl be free? I will take you to meet that person."

"Just after the hospital closes." Jiang Lianzhu responded casually. Seeing that another patient came to the door, she stopped discussing this matter with Zhao Ruyue.

It was already evening when the medical clinic closed, and Jiang Lianzhu followed Zhao Ruyue to an inn in the county town. .
