The wronged female supporting role made a comeback with a divine reply
Chapter 12 Zhang Ruolan
"Go to hell! You are a useless descendant, so the ancestors have to talk to you!"
"Okay, we should focus on the clan land first. No matter how we develop in the future, we will always have something to eat!"
After arguing for two hours, Bai Zhaozhao felt that she could no longer sit still. The Bai clan leader suddenly asked her, "Zhao girl, after selling these 10,000 bottles of medicine, minus the cost and your share, there will be about 600 taels. What do you think we should do?"
Bai Zhaozhao blinked his eyes: "It's not just 600 taels. In the future, we can have 600 taels or even more every month. We have clan schools, clan fields, and ancestral halls. We can just take it one by one!"
As soon as these words came out, the elders from each family choked collectively. It was not that they disagreed with what she said, but the Zhang family's contract only signed for this one month, saying that it could only be signed for a year if the business could sell well. So they had to use up the six hundred taels that were set in stone first, otherwise wouldn't their work be in vain?
In fact, it is not surprising that everyone wants to clarify the distribution of benefits. The main reason is that after the separation of the branches, some are rich and some are poor, and their perspectives are different. When the clan gets the money, everyone wants to benefit themselves.
Fortunately, Chief Bai was smart, and he made the final decision: "Just do as Miss Zhao said, including the clan school, clan fields, and ancestral hall! Okay, let's go!"
Bai Zhaozhao was finally liberated. For the first time, she intuitively felt the concept of ancient clan. It was like a small society, in which the real masters were the few rich and powerful people, and the rest were just following suit.
Just like the great uncle from the third room, his family had two scholars and one eighth-rank official, and thousands of acres of fertile land. It was definitely a family tradition of farming and studying, and they knew the importance of studying, so they tried their best to run the clan school well.
Soon, the Bai family workshop recruited people, provided seeds to the villagers, and collected a lot of medicinal materials. They began to make medicine according to Bai Zhaozhao's plan. Bai Zhaozhao was not idle either. She continued her medical studies and martial arts training.
A month later, the golden wound medicine became popular in all towns and counties in Linyang County. Although it was a little expensive, ordinary people could afford it and keep it at home for use at any time. The effect was very good and could even stop bleeding quickly from some large wounds.
Jishidiang's reputation spread quickly, and even some wealthy families began to buy its medicines in large quantities, and even many medical clinics began to seek cooperation with Jishidiang.
The eldest master of the Zhang family decisively came and signed a three-year contract with Baiji Workshop, requiring it to only supply Jishidiang within three years, and the price could be raised to 120 wen, and he would pay as much as the output was.
Bai Zhaozhao readily agreed. Jishidiang had to develop first before the value of Baiji Workshop could be realized.
Three months later.
"invitation?"
"Yes, Zhao girl, the Zhang family invites you to the capital city. They say there is a banquet and they want you to attend. There is a carriage in the town and it will take about a day to get there. It's a good opportunity for you to go and ask your uncle to thank you, otherwise he won't be promoted to the sixth rank."
“Ah, Grandpa Patriarch, you are too polite. Third Uncle relies on strength!”
"Okay, this is the Zhang family trying to show goodwill, we must respond. You can go there early tomorrow morning, and I'll ask Ali to take you there in a bullock cart."
"Okay!" Bai Zhaozhao nodded. The Bai family has undergone great changes in the past few months. The clan school has begun to expand, two hundred acres of clan land have been purchased, and the ancestral hall is also ready to be renovated.
She is now quite respected when she walks in the village. Even the annoying great-grandfather and his family look at her with complicated eyes. I heard that they are now earning a good income by working in the workshop.
Linyang County City is a big city. To its west is Qinghe County, the fief of Prince An, and to its east is Shangjing City.
Therefore, Prince An's son had to pass through Linyang County when traveling between the capital and Qinghe County. Bai Zhaozhao always felt that he might meet him when he went to the provincial capital this time.
However, what does it matter if he encounters her? It just so happens that she has brought some ferocious beasts from the mountains in the past few months. If he dares to harm her, don't blame her for leading him to a deserted place and then releasing a few wolves for him.
There is no way. For this potential danger, I really don't know what the plot will come up with. Bai Zhaozhao thinks the best counterattack is to secretly kill him! After all, he doesn't have the aura of a protagonist like Cheng Jiayu.
As for Cheng Jiayu, the original male protagonist, it was said that he had opened a jade shop as described in the original novel. She would go and see it when she had the chance. Even if she couldn't kill him directly, she would find a way to consume his luck.
After making up her mind, Bai Zhaozhao walked into the gate of Zhang's house. She was received by the third daughter of the Zhang family, a very gentle girl. She was very polite and her every move revealed the upbringing of a lady from a noble family.
"Miss Bai, I heard from my brother that you have a similar figure to me, but you are more beautiful, so I asked someone to make you two sets of solid-color gauze dresses. As for the headwear, it is better to wear something high-end so that people will not look down on you. So I can only ask you to use my ruby set. Although it is not new, it is simple and elegant."
Bai Zhaozhao was a little confused: "Is your Zhang family's lotus viewing banquet so particular?"
Zhang Ruolan was also confused: "Didn't my brother tell you? This is a lotus viewing banquet held by the prefect of Linyang County!"
"Ah? I really don't know that."
"It's okay, Miss Bai. You will stay with me then. Our main purpose is to quietly mention Baiji Golden Wound Medicine in front of the noble ladies."
Bai Zhaozhao understood that Zhang family's Jishidiang was preparing to march into the provincial capital, and they must have sent him an invitation in order to do some good.
"Then Miss Third, tell me, what is the main purpose of this lotus viewing banquet, which distinguished guests will be there, and what should we pay attention to?"
Zhang Ruolan smiled softly: "My maiden name is Zhang Ruolan. I heard that you are fifteen this year, exactly one year younger than me, so I should call you Sister Zhao?"
"Okay, Sister Lan."
"This lotus viewing banquet is held every year, hosted by the wife of the prefect. It is mainly for the nobles of Linyang County to get together and for the young talented ladies to meet each other. It is a banquet that has become a convention.
But this year is a little different, because Lord Zhong just took office last winter, and was released from outside the capital. This is the first time that Mrs. Zhong is hosting a lotus viewing banquet, and she needs to get to know the nobles of Linyang County, so she attaches great importance to it.
And we, the local big families, also want to show our faces in front of Madam Zhong, because she comes from the Duke of Qi’s family in Shangjing City, the Duke’s family that married the princess.”
Bai Zhaozhao was indeed a little surprised. What a big shot! He never expected that he could get in touch with a high-level person so quickly. The Zhang family was really powerful.
"So your family wants to find you a family?"
Zhang Ruolan nodded shyly: "Yes, I went there once last year, but I didn't find a suitable family. I'll try again this year. Sister Zhao is also a good choice..."
Bai Zhaozhao waved her hands quickly: "No, no, I won't look at it. Just give me that plain dress, and a simple headpiece. By the way, although I am going with you, I don't have an invitation. Is that okay?"
