After the incident of Underground Secret Chamber ended, Jiang Yingcheng was expressly forbidden by her beauty Imperial Father to not leave the palace until the end of New Year’s Banquet.
Jiang Yingcheng actually stayed in the palace "honestly" for a few days.
--The word "honest" is what she calls herself.
Ever since she saw the room full of gold and silver jewelry that Prince Xin had prepared for Imperial Consort in that tomb, her mind became more active.
Although her Imperial Father Imperial Consort are still alive, she also really wants to give them so many gold, silk, pearls and jade.
It happened that New Year’s Banquet was approaching, and officials from various ministries had many matters to report to the palace at any time. It happened to be convenient for Jiang Yingcheng to stop the familiar Uncle people halfway.
"Make money?"
Minister of Revenue Jiao Hongmiao looked at the little guy in front of him inexplicably, who was about to wrap himself into a ball, and subconsciously started to take out his own Purse: "Little Highness Don't you have any change to buy Pastries? I did bring some pocket money with me today--"
"No, no!" Jiang Yingcheng waved his hand quickly, "Changshun Uncle has prepared a lot of Pastries!"
Jiao Hongmiao looked down and finally saw the scene in front of him clearly.
The little guy moved a small maza and sat on the only way for officials to enter and leave the palace. There were two charcoal braziers at his feet. Four Great Guards behind him also carried a few food boxes and blankets, obviously intending to intercept them here for a long time.
Jiao Hongmiao trembled all over, and a sense of crisis suddenly came to his heart. "How about this, after I finish handling the matter here in a few days, I will personally take you to Ministry of Revenue to experience it!"
After that, he rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and left in a hurry.
Jiang Yingcheng looked blank. "Huh?"
His confused eyes followed Jiao Hongmiao's leaving figure until he completely disappeared.
New Year’s Banquet has many places where money is needed, and each department has to go to Ministry of Revenue for approval of funds. It is normal to be busy.
After thinking about it, Jiang Yingcheng relaxed and rested his chin with his hands, waiting for the next Uncle who didn't look so anxious to walk into the alley.
And then--
Ministry of Rites Minister Chu Jiaxu shed tears of sadness. "Little Highness is like this. The Ministry of Rites I belong to are not capable ministers who can make money. I can only live like this by relying on the breath of Ministry of Revenue and those Iron Roosters."
Minister of Works Ran Hongyi was enthusiastic. "Little Highness Are you short of Gold Beans? It just so happens that we Ministry of Works also have a sum of money that we need to go to Ministry of Revenue for a friendly discussion. In this way, you and I, I heard that Lord Jiao entered the palace not long ago, and it should not be out yet..."
None of the officials who came and went could put forward any valid opinions. Jiang Yingcheng was wrapped in a small blanket and felt a little discouraged.
"Little Highness Why are you sitting here?"
A kind voice suddenly came from behind, but it still frightened Jiang Yingcheng so much that he trembled.
"Grandpa Kan?"
General of Agile Cavalry Kan Ruifeng bent over, and when she turned around, she smiled even bigger.
Jiang Yingcheng then used the same rhetoric again.
Kan Ruifeng looked thoughtful.
"Although I don't know the specific situation of Little Highness, I can share with you some of my experience during the march and combat."
Jiang Yingcheng waited all morning for a different reply, and immediately grabbed the low stool she placed next to her, with bright eyes. "Grandpa Kan, sit down! Grandpa Kan Do you want some tea? Grandpa Kan Do you want some small Pastries?!"
Kan Ruifeng refused the latter two, but sat down politely. "For the military, there are only two ways to make money, one is Revenue Generation, the other is Cost Reduction."
"Revenue Generation, naturally we can turn other people's supplies into our own, and use other people's resources to enrich our Great Rui with good soldiers."
Jiang Yingcheng personally poured a cup of hot tea for her Grandpa Kan: "Oh oh oh!"
This seems to be very interesting.
Want to hear it!
However, Kan Ruifeng didn't know what the little guy was thinking. After taking the tea cup, he changed the topic. "As for Cost Reduction... there is a lot to say in this."
Kan Ruifeng was instantly brought into deep memories because of this conversation, and he continued, "Frugality in food and clothing is only the most basic of them, and frugality in medication is the most difficult."
This experience was too far away for Jiang Yingcheng and had no reference value at all, but seeing her Grandpa Kan look sad, she listened very seriously.
"The number of military doctors accompanying the army is very small, and many soldiers are unable to treat them. They force minor injuries and illnesses to become serious. Not to mention more medicinal materials are required, making treatment more difficult."
Strictly speaking, the number of accompanying military doctors has been much greater than in previous years, but it still cannot meet such a huge demand in the military.
The metropolitan Great Rui cavalry is invincible, but the road is full of thorns, and it is difficult to clear it for three days and three nights.
[Ah...]
[Uncle have never thought about directly preparing Medicine Pack for common diseases, so that when the soldiers are injured and sick, they can just take a dose?]
Kan Ruifeng was stunned. "What?"
Jiang Yingcheng was also stunned for a moment. "Ang? What's wrong?"
Kan Ruifeng then realized that what he just said was what the little guy was thinking in his heart, and he didn't say it out loud at all.
He was silent for a moment. "Ah, ah...Grandpa Kan just heard me wrong."
Jiang Yingcheng nodded with a confused expression.
Immediately afterwards--
[Chengcheng Remember, there are also some medicinal materials that can be directly ground into powder, brewed and taken without affecting the efficacy. This can also save a lot of transportation space~]
[Moreover, there are so many soldiers in the army, and some people catch colds and typhoid fever every day. Military doctors can prepare relevant medicines in advance, boil them into soups and put them in the open space. Anyone who suffers from this disease can just come and get a bowl. Wouldn't it be much more convenient~]
[Also, the wound medicines used in the military are of such low quality that they are not conducive to wound healing. However, there are formulas sold in Merit Shop, which can use fewer medicinal materials to achieve greater miraculous effects--]
Kan Ruifeng's breathing became more rapid with the little guy's heartbeat.
The medicinal materials prepared by the army are divided into categories. All medicines need to be prescribed by military doctors after diagnosing the pulse, and then specially prepared by dedicated personnel. The process is not only cumbersome. Whenever soldiers have a headache or fever, they do not dare to take up the precious time of military doctors. They want to leave time to soldiers who need treatment more.
If it is implemented as the little guy said, it will save a lot of time, save a lot of transportation space, and they can also bring more medicinal materials with the army!
There is also the wound medicine that the little guy mentioned. Every year, some people in the army die due to inflammation and ulceration of wounds. If there is a more effective medicine, they will definitely be able to save more soldiers!
So, what exactly is that prescription?!
Kan Ruifeng suppressed the tremor in his eyes and looked at the little dumpling beside him as if inadvertently.
Jiang Yingcheng waved his hand and directly exchanged the prescription for the wound medicine: [I Kang Kang, I Kang Kang--Notoginseng, Aconite Root...]
"General Kan!" A shout suddenly came from the end of the alley, successfully attracting the attention of several people, and Jiang Yingcheng's inner voice also stopped abruptly.
Kan Ruifeng:"..."
The person who made the noise at the alley hurried here, first saluted to both of them, and then said with a smile, "Why are you still here? Just now Your Majesty was saying that I had something to discuss with you, you--"
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing that Kan Ruifeng was stiff, the man asked with concern, "General, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Yingcheng also raised his head. "Grandpa Kan are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Kan Ruifeng swallowed a mouthful of old blood with difficulty, almost crying, "Grandpa Kan It's okay."
Afterwards, he raised his head and stared directly at the uninvited guest opposite -
You better be fine!
