ush of shame and awkwardly forced a smile."Doctor Fang, you are truly a master of medicine. I was blind not to recognize your greatness.""I apologize for any offenses I may have caused in the past. I...Fang Jinshui smiled and comforted her not to get so excited.

Without cultivating a few capable assistants, managing such a large mountaintop and lodge would be enough to wear her out.

After capturing the mountain peak, Fang Jinshu discovered that starting a business was much harder than opening a clinic.

The number of people to be managed and the amount of trivial matters to deal with are countless times more than in a clinic.

Yu Lian quickly started packing her things. There wasn't much to bring, anyway. Fang Jinxiu planned to be gone for three days in total, and the journey there and back would take a whole day and night, even if they traveled as quickly as possible.

I stayed in the city for a day and took the opportunity to visit the county magistrate, inquiring about the water situation in Luoshui City.

As soon as they left home, Hu Ailan arrived.

Today, Mu Shi assigned her a task. When Hu Ailan first saw Mu Shi, she ran excitedly to her.

"Auntie Mu! You're the only one who cares about me. Tell me the truth, is Fang Jinxiu really just playing with me"

Mu was always more polite than Zong Yu Lian. With the sudden change of person today, Hu Ai Lan's first reaction was that it was Mu's doing.

Otherwise, how could Fang Jinshu let her see Mu's aunt

For six days she'd been here, yet she hadn't even caught a glimpse of Mu Shu's clothing. She was definitely doing it on purpose.

Mu subconsciously dodged Hu Ailan's touch, but she didn't forget her daughter-in-law's instructions before leaving.

Don't think too much, the house is especially busy today. Jinxiu and Yulian went out to do other work. You should still go to compost manure today. Turn over the manure water buried a few days ago so that the fertilizer is more evenly composted.

As soon as she heard that they were going to the pigpen again, Hu Ai Lan's face crumpled in resistance. She put on a pitiful act, playing the victim and using every trick in the book to fawn over and plead with Mu Shi.

Alas, the current Mu family is no longer what it used to be. After observing for a while, I also found that Hu Ai Lan wasn't as docile as she appeared on the surface at all.

"Don't plead with me. Our daughter-in-law isn't that easy to get along with. Didn't you see Fang Jinshu even had to do chores when she was leaving"

Get to work.

Hu Ailan was taken aback. She had served by Mu Shi's side for over two years and believed she understood Mu Shi's personality very well.

She definitely wasn't the kind of person who would lie or deceive people. These days, Hu Ailan was becoming increasingly suspicious in her heart, she felt she had been tricked by Fang Jinshu.

Seeing Mu's attitude like this now, could it be that her family is really busy

If she could withstand the test and show Mu Auntie that she was also capable of doing everything well, her heart would definitely not rely solely on Fang Jinxiu anymore.

Hu Ai-lan's fatigue was gone, and her posture had noticeably straightened.

"Okay, Mu Auntie, I'll get to work right now. Please rest assured, I will definitely do a good job. You should take care of yourself at home."

Mu shook his hand, letting her leave.

Hu Ailan could only grit her teeth and continue to frantically pick up the dung.

She worked all day long, and at night she had to be at the beck and call of Elder Zong San doing housework. At night, she also had to wait on Old Lady Wu, rubbing her body and coaxing her to sleep.

Hu Ai-lan looked much thinner and paler. Her jawline was even more pointed than before.

After Zong Jia had finally put on a little bit of weight, it disappeared visibly within just a few days.

"I will definitely succeed," she muttered to herself repeatedly, like a ruthless work machine, picking up feces.

As soon as Fang Jinshi and his companions left the village, they got into a carriage and raced towards Luoshui City.

Last night, she gathered all the usable resources in the space. While Bai Lingzhi's spores were thriving near the spirit spring eye, they were still a medicinal herb with a very slow growth cycle.

It takes three to five years before she's ready to be harvested, and even then it's best not to pick her.

The only valuable thing was medicinal herbs, but most of them couldn't be sold. Fang Jinshi was extremely worried. Could she really raise 10,000 taels of silver just by selling mountain spring silver fish

During a disaster year, luxury goods are the fastest to depreciate in value. In prosperous times, perhaps the value of mountain spring silver fish could still rise due to scarcity. Now, it's hard to say.

To avoid a wasted trip and being short of money, Fang Jinshu took out all the remaining medicine she had on hand.

There was also a burn ointment made from the weasel oil caught last time. It worked much better than most commercially available burn ointments. After applying it, the skin would recover to its original state within three days.

There are also some common ointments that can be exchanged for a little money.

Fang Jinshi looked out the carriage window and sighed.

I never thought she'd be broke one day. If she hadn't time-traveled, she might have already taken a vacation to relax on a Maldivian island, sipping cocktails, enjoying delicious food, soaking up the blue sea and sky, and watching countless handsome men and beautiful women.

Never mind, there's no going back. I better figure out how to make some money first.

If she's lucky, maybe she can build a utopia in this other world and live that kind of life. walked in with a composed face.Zong Taiwu, upon seeing his mother, turned pale like a mouse encountering a cat. Fearing a scolding, he immediately jumped up and tried to run away."Sit down!"Yuan Xia...
