"Brother, you're joking." Xiao Lin said with a smile.

Pei Shangxing nodded, "Indeed, but brother, you have the talent of a general, both wise and brave. You saved my father from the enemy army, but you only suffered minor injuries. Our old man has always praised you. If you are willing, you can be crowned king or marquis. But you insist on going home... This... is a pity."

Pei Shangxing looked at him with regret, "If you are willing, you can go with me to the battle. When I come back, I will ask the emperor for permission to confer you a title..."

Xiao Lin shook his head, "Brother, there's really no need for that. My parents are old, and I'm really worried about her being the only one to take care of them."

Pei Shangxing wanted to persuade him again, but seeing that he had made up his mind, he stopped talking.

"I'm really curious about what kind of woman is this, who can't even be a goddess descending from heaven to earth, but makes you give up even your future."

Xiao Lin curled his lips, "It's only temporary, there may be opportunities to meet again in the future."

He said seriously: "Brother, remember not to reveal it."

Pei Shangxing sighed, "You, you, why do you have to do this? You gave up so much for her, but you don't even let her know."

Xiao Lin's eyes flickered, "I didn't give up so much for him, but for myself. You will know in the future."

"Yes, please come in."

Jiang Shuyue waited anxiously, and just when she was about to get out of the car to take a look, the curtain was lifted, and Xiao Lin's voice at this moment had a magical power to reassure people, "Come down, General Pei wants to see you."

Jiang Shuyue nodded. She had never met General Pei in her previous life because he would die in this battle. She had only met Mrs. Pei, who was a very nice person.

However, because her husband died in the war, she seldom went out, and she had only seen him once. That time, when someone was gossiping about her, she helped him out.

"I am a commoner, paying my respects to the general." Jiang Shuyue said nervously.

Pei Shangxing glanced at Xiao Lin and said, "Get up."

Jiang Shuyue stood up slowly. Pei Shangxing stared at her face. Although she was pretty, she was not a fairy.

"Your husband said that your wine for treating bruises is very useful. Did you bring it?"

Jiang Shuyue nodded and said, "I have it. General, you can have someone come and try it."

Pei Shangxing also had the same idea. Public is public, private is private. This concerns the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and cannot be careless.

"Someone, find a wounded brother."

Soon, people came. Due to long-term training, there were countless bruises on their knees, wrists, and legs.

Jiang Shuyue poured out some healing wine and rubbed the man's injured area with a little force for a while. As for the broken wounds, she soaked gauze in the healing wine and applied it on them.

"How is it?" Pei Shangxing asked.

"Hiss...comfortable...comfortable. The place where I rubbed it feels warm. It actually doesn't hurt that much anymore."

Pei Shangxing nodded, "It looks like a good thing. My brothers are injured a lot, and with this, they will feel more comfortable. If they feel more comfortable, they can kill two more enemies."

Jiang Shuyue hesitated for a moment, but decided to mention it. If he listened and it had some effect, that would be a good thing. If he didn't listen, she wouldn't feel guilty.

"General Pei, I heard that you are going to lead your troops to the south to fight?"

"Yes, we will set off in ten days. The army will rest here and wait for the supply of food and grass from the court."

"I heard that the south is humid and full of poisons. I know a little about medicine and have read some books..."

"Just say what you want to say. We soldiers like to be direct and don't like to beat around the bush."

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "Yes, I would like to ask the general, have you prepared enough medicines to remove dampness and detoxify? The south often suffers from stomach upset and dysentery. If the soldiers are affected by these problems, their morale will be weakened when they go into battle."

Pei Shangxing glanced at Xiao Lin. This little woman was quite capable. What she said made sense and was indeed very important.

"That makes sense. This general will send a pigeon to the capital to report the situation. To be honest, this is the first time that the Great Yong Dynasty has fought a war with them, and we don't have much experience yet."

Perhaps it was precisely because of the lack of experience that this battle resulted in heavy losses.

"General, I have a good antidote for common poisons. I wonder if you..."

"Yes, yes, write it down." Pei Shangxing was very happy and said in a cheerful voice, "I didn't expect to get a prescription for free when I bought medicine. I've made a lot of money this time. When I win the battle, I will definitely not treat you two unfairly."

Jiang Shuyue didn’t think so much about it. She just felt that if this battle could really be won, there wouldn’t be so many families torn apart and so many people displaced.

"You mean... do you want this wine for treating bruises?"

"Yes, it is. As you said, morale is very important when fighting in battle. With this, they will be happy. Besides, your stuff is good. Send more later."

"What about the price..." Jiang Shuyue asked tentatively.

"Just do as your husband said, one hundred coins per bottle." Pei Shangxing said generously: "Let's have one thousand bottles."

Jiang Shuyue was a little surprised. She herself didn't dare to ask for so much money. She was just hesitating about how much to ask for a bottle.

How did Xiao Lin negotiate such a high price?

This is one hundred taels of silver, she really made a fortune.

"What, are you in trouble?"

Jiang Shuyue shook her head, "No, I can deliver it in seven days, and I will definitely not delay the general's important matter."

“This recipe…”

"By the way, you have to pay for the prescription. How much?"

Jiang Shuyue was surprised. He had misunderstood. "No, I meant that the general might as well ask the military doctors to take a look to see if there is anything wrong."

"No need, it's a good recipe at first glance."

Even if he doesn't trust this woman, can he not trust his own brother?

However, he glanced at Jiang Shuyue's handwriting, and a touch of surprise flashed across his eyes, "I didn't expect your handwriting to be so good, almost the same as my wife's, beautiful."

Jiang Shuyue thought of Madam Pei, a famous talented woman, gentle and kind.

I gave her the prescription for detoxification as a way of repaying her for helping me out in my previous life. I don't know if the ending will change.

On the way back, Jiang Shuyue still couldn't figure it out.

"Isn't this General Pei too easy to talk to? And how did you negotiate the price? I don't even dare to imagine."

Xiao Lin curled his lips, feeling proud, "Your stuff is good stuff, they really need it, it can save lives, and the price is not high."

Jiang Shuyue nodded. "I calculated this time, and I can earn at least half, which is fifty taels. If you help me get this done, we can... split the profits 40% to 60%."

"Four six, no!"

Jiang Shuyue took a breath. Did he want to split the profits 50-50 with him?
