Once the work is done, the rest is up to the patient.
How well she recovers depends on herself.
This physician really can’t help with that.
...
That day, news ca from Jinling, the capital city of the Great Yue Country, that the colored glassware was still selling extrely well, creating an almost inexhaustible demand trend.
People of the Great Yue are indeed wealthy. Those who missed out in the first half of the year heard the news and ca in the second half.
The people of Yue Country are really fond of this.
There’s no choice, more goods were brought in the second half of the year. Initially, it was thought sales would require a price cut, but instead, prices didn’t drop; they increased.
Especially the new product "Xuan Paper," which sold at a sky-high price of one tael of silver per sheet.
It’s even more expensive than the white silk used by the royal family. Suddenly, there was a saying about the high cost of Jinling paper. This ti, not many were brought, only a hundred thousand sheets.
Taking aside the ten thousand sheets offered to the King of Yue, the rest were auctioned. This Xuan Paper is large; if cut, a whole sheet can be divided into twenty sheets the size of ordinary notepaper.
Calculated this way, it’s not so expensive and is acceptable to everyone.
No one knows the cost of this Xuan Paper better than Su Chen. The Su Family is going to make a fortune with this pillar industry, giving them the ability to withstand risks.
In the letter, Su Chen ntioned giving Lin Miao half of the Su Family’s papermaking workshop shares, but Lin Miao didn’t plan to accept them. Instead, in his reply, he suggested giving half of the workshop’s shares to the royal family.
Because a major source of revenue for the Da Li royal family cos from papermaking; half of the mulberry paper and hemp paper on the market is produced by major paper mills controlled by the royal family.
With the introduction of Xuan Paper, the price of mulberry paper would surely plumt. Even if the Su Family only sells Xuan Paper in Yue Country, it’s impossible to stop people from importing it back into Da Li for resale. When competition starts, can the royal family still tolerate the Su Family?
The only way is to give it away.
That is the long-term strategy.
Wealth in the world is inexhaustible, but if one person only thinks about monopolizing wealth without wanting to share it, their path is destined to be short.
This is not about fairness; it’s about humanity.
Even if he’s the emperor, he can’t occupy all the wealth in the world, or his rule will be overthrown by others.
If the royal family is too greedy, it would suggest that Da Li Dynasty is near its disintegration.
The sugar workshop matter has so progress too, but the location is sowhat far, requiring sea transportation, which takes half a month to reach Jinling, then enter Da Li; both water and land transport would take at least twenty days to reach Dongshan. If the raw sugar is transported to Dongshan for purification, the cost would be high.
However, given the current price of refined sugar, even with such high transport costs, profit is still possible.
Su Chen suggested building a refined sugar workshop near Jiangdu Prefecture, close to Jinling. After refining, it can be directly resold back to Yue Country; additionally, it can be sold dostically within Da Li.
It’s a twofold gain, maximizing profit.
Lin Miao doesn’t mind sharing the profits from sugar production with the Su Family; anyway, it will eventually beco public, but placing the refined sugar workshop in Jiangdu leaves him out of reach.
Su Chen can be trusted, but what about the Su Family?
He’s not a philanthropist.
After so consideration, if there is large-scale sales, cooperation with the Su Family would save him a lot of trouble.
For distribution, sales, and recruitnt issues, he only needs to control the technology and factory production while the Su Family handles sales.
It can actually be a pretty good way, at least to make a large sum of money in the shortest ti possible.
Moreover, he has plenty of moneymaking projects and doesn’t need to worry about this one.
Su Chen also ntioned in the letter that this ti the expected profit could be over ten million taels of silver, and splitting it among the three would make each share quite considerable.
The Su Family could cover its losses just from these two trades, and the Snow Mountain Sect would hit the jackpot; as for Lin Miao, being the smallest and having the least cost, would make the most.
Su Chen jokingly said that now even if the Snow Mountain Sect sent ten or eight beauties to Lin Miao, they would do so without hesitation.
With money, why fear not recruiting excellent disciples, even if the Snow Mountain Sect’s ancestral land is in the Yue Country?
As for Lin Miao’s relationship with the so-called Moon Worship Sect, it hasn’t been proven right? Even if it were, so what, does the Snow Mountain Sect know?
Not knowing ans no problem; who would go against silver?
You tell a doctor who heals the sick and saves lives every day is a demon sect mber. Are you blind, or am I blind?
Could it be that all those people cured by him were fake?
So, Mr. Lin is a good person.
...
"Miss Ji, how do you feel today?" As a physician, it is only natural to be inford of the patient’s recovery progress.
In a sense, Ji Fei’Er is also his research subject. Such cases are ones a doctor might not encounter even once in a lifeti.
"It’s okay, it’s just that thing, I’m really not used to it, can I..."
"Didn’t Xia Zhu tell you to use it while sleeping at night and you can take it off during the day?" Lin Miao gave Ji Fei’Er a peculiar look.
"Ah?" Ji Fei’Er’s cheeks reddened involuntarily as she quickly turned around and ran back to the room. Monts later, she returned.
"Miss Ji, if you have any issues, let’s communicate tily. Xia Zhu might not have made so things clear, but it’s okay, you can directly ask ."
"Okay."
"Mr. Lin, if I never marry, will this illness still occur?"
"Generally, it shouldn’t, but your illness ca from your mother’s womb. Normally, one wouldn’t grow blocked areas, but for you it’s hard to say. Just pay attention usually. Won get ear piercings, and if you don’t wear earrings, doesn’t it seal up after a while?"
"You’re right, I’ll be more careful in the future."
"Alright, take care and rest. I’m off to work. If you need anything, find Xia Zhu, she’ll arrange everything."
...
"Mr. Lin, please save my child..."
"Don’t worry, dear auntie, say it slowly, what’s wrong with your child?" Lin Miao attended to a patient, a mother bringing over a boy in his early teens.
The boy clutched his abdon, his complexion pale as paper, beads of sweat on his forehead, looking as if in unbearable pain.
Lin Miao examined his tongue coating, checked the pulse, finally had the boy lie down, reached out to touch him, and then used Inner Breath Detection Skill.
Basically determined what the ailnt was.
This auxiliary Inner Breath Detection Skill is much quicker and more accurate than feeling with the hand alone before.
"Auntie, has your child recently eaten unripe persimmons?"
"Mr. Lin, how did you know?" The mother was shocked, "This child is greedy, and a few days ago, he ate five or six persimmons at one go, not knowing if any were unripe?"
"That’s it, persimmons are cold fruits. If consud unripe or without peeling, it can cause such ailnts. It’s not a major issue; take one dose of my dicine, and he’ll be cured." Lin Miao chuckled. Eating too many persimmons, especially among teenagers who indulge, often combined with stomach acid, forms gastric stones.
While examining earlier, Lin Miao shattered the gastric stones in the stomach with inner breath, and now just needs to expel the fragnts from the body, and then aid with spleen-strengthening, accumulation-relieving herbal dicine.
Lin Miao discovered that this inner breath not only detects internal lesions but can also shatter stones. It’s sowhat like ultrasound.
Yet, it should be more effective than ultrasound.
This Inner Breath Detection Skill is sothing Lin Miao is still exploring and hasn’t taught Xia Zhu or his senior sister yet, but after accumulating enough experience, it will naturally be imparted.
"Mom, I feel like I’m not in pain anymore..."
"Really, son, that’s great. Mr. Lin must have healed you."
"Mom, when Mr. Lin examined , I suddenly felt warmth in my belly, and then the pain subsided..."
"Hehe, auntie, take this prescription to get the dicine, just take two doses and it’ll be fine." Lin Miao smiled slightly, handing over the prescription.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, thank you!" The aunt received the prescription with both hands, repeatedly expressing gratitude as she left.
"Junior, did you treat this child?"
"Senior sister, you have discerning eyes. I felt the stone in his stomach earlier and used inner breath to break it apart. After easing the pain and expelling it, the ailnt naturally healed." Lin Miao explained.
"Inner breath can also heal?"
"Of course, but I’m still exploring. Human internal organs are very fragile, so control must be precise. To use it for healing requires specific conditions; not all illnesses can be treated with inner breath." Lin Miao said, "First, the position must be accurate. A mistake and it’s not healing but harming life."
Normally, when inner breath enters the body, it causes indiscriminate harm; even if guided for healing, it’s still within the ridians. No one dares to do it with internal organs; a slight misstep and the delicate organs could endure harm. Only Lin Miao can achieve such detailed control to shatter gastric stones.
"Senior sister, how is your Minor Formless Skill practice going?"
"I practice every day as you said, and I’ve already opened nine of the Twelve Main ridians." Sun Youwei replied.
"Good, once senior sister opens all twelve ridians, you’ll be able to level up in the passages." Lin Miao rejoiced, "Can you observe internally?"
"Not yet, I can only feel the inner breath circulating in the ridians, but can’t see the five viscera and six bowels clearly."
"Take it slowly; as your level increases, you’ll soon be able to achieve it." Lin Miao nodded, "With Xia Zhu, pass on the Minor Formless Skill to her; my Inner Cultivation Heart thod isn’t suitable for her."
"Alright."
At this mont, the door curtain lifted, and soone walked in.
The clothing wasn’t sumptuous, but dressed quite properly with thin-soled fast boots—not the style of a martial world person but more akin to official wear.
Looking again at the square face, with three-inch tiger whiskers below the chin, dusted with so grey, striding wide steps, an aura of deadly intent surged forward.
Judging by the gait and deanor, who would think of this person as a patient!
At first sight, Lin Miao unconsciously stood up; evidently, this patient is quite different from the others.
