Ning Huan was quite anxious, but then she thought that she could ask him herself when they arrived, so she wasn't in a hurry anymore.

The carriage quickly arrived at Zuiyanlou, in the familiar private room on the second floor. This time, Xiao Wu was much more polite to Ning Huan. He bowed respectfully to her and said, "Madam Physician."

Ning Huan didn't stand on ceremony, nodded, and followed Si Yan inside.

Si Yan said gently to the person inside the room, "I've brought her here. You must speak to her properly."

Ning Huan slowly walked over and saw the man lying on the bed.

I probably didn't notice him last night when I was treating my wound by removing the arrow. But when I saw this man again today, he had striking features and an extraordinary bearing.

Even though he was pale from his injuries, it couldn't hide the imposing aura emanating from him. His clothes were extremely luxurious, clearly indicating his special status.

"Madam Physician, thank you so much for saving my life. I heard from Doctor Si Gong that if it weren't for your timely treatment last night, I wouldn't be sitting here right now."

Xiao Qi thanked Ning Huan and then said, "I heard last night that Xiao Wu offended you, so I had him apologize to you."

Ning Huan waved her hand and said, "I'm not one to hold grudges, so there's no need for him to come over and apologize."

Xiao Qi laughed heartily: "The female physician is a woman of strong character, and we get along very well. The reason I called you here is to thank her for saving my life."

"The reward is that I provide the female doctor with money and access. I heard that you are going to do some voice work recently, and I can help you with that."

Upon hearing this, Ning Huan chuckled and, without giving any face, immediately said, "This isn't a thank-you gift; it's clearly an offer to cooperate with me and win me over with the terms I'm offering, isn't it?"

Xiao Wu frowned upon hearing this. This woman was so ungrateful. He was about to step forward to say something when Xiao Qi raised his hand, signaling him not to come closer.

Then he smiled and said, "The female doctor is indeed straightforward. I did hear Manager Si mention you. I think your abilities shouldn't be limited to the village. I also heard that Madam Ning is interested in doing some business in town."

What the man said was true, but Ning Huan was still speechless. He clearly wanted to cooperate with her, but he pretended to be grateful for her gift.

She raised an eyebrow and said, "I do want to do some business, but if you value my abilities, you should cooperate with me, not offer me a reward."

Xiao Qi chuckled lightly. He had been somewhat skeptical when Si Yan told him that this female physician was no ordinary person, but now it seemed she truly was remarkable.

“What you say is true, Madam Physician. I am indeed willing to cooperate with you. As for my thanks, I will give you an additional thousand taels of silver as a token of my appreciation.”

Upon hearing that there were a thousand taels of silver notes, Ning Huan immediately stopped talking about anything else.

Then Xiao Qi said, "I've heard that the Jade Complexion Cream from the Female Physician sells very well in town. I've also heard from Manager Si about how you do business. I wonder if the Female Physician would be interested in trying to sell these creams in the capital?"

Ning Huan raised an eyebrow. She could tell that the person in front of her might have an unusual background, but she didn't expect him to be able to go to the capital.

"Does the young master mean that you can sell these ointments in the capital?"

Xiao Qi nodded: "That's right. I have connections in the capital and channels to sell these ointments there. If you think it's acceptable, then these ointments can soon be available in the best clinics and shops in the capital."

The man's words sounded nice, but Ning Huan asked, "Cooperation is fine, but you must give me a heads-up first, at least let me know who I'm cooperating with, otherwise I'll be worried."

With her own abilities, it was only a matter of time before Ning Huan's business expanded to the capital; it was just that she now had help that could bring it forward a little earlier. If this person was a fraud, she would have taken a detour instead.

Xiao Qi seemed to understand Ning Huan's meaning and nodded: "If the female physician is willing to cooperate with me, then I will naturally treat her with sincerity."

Now he was certain that Ning Huan was a capable person, and if he could join forces with her to do business, he would have a guarantee in his future business dealings.

Xiao Qi narrowed his eyes and then said to Ning Huan, "My surname is Zhang and my given name is Qi. You can call me Young Master Qi, Madam Physician. My family knows many powerful and influential people in the capital, so I have always wanted to try doing some business, but I have not found a suitable business yet."

"If you, Madam Physician, find it acceptable, then in the future, you can take any kind of ointment you make from me to sell in the capital. As for the price, you can set it yourself, Madam Ning."

Xiao Qi naturally wouldn't reveal his true identity to Ning Huan. Xiao is the current imperial surname, and if he were to reveal his real name, it would likely cause a lot of trouble.

Ning Huan had no reason to doubt what Xiao Qi said. The monk may run away, but the temple cannot. Even if this Young Master Qi was lying, there was still Manager Si.

“Alright, Young Master Qi is a straightforward person. Then I will take the Jade Complexion Cream and Jade Lotus Dew that I recently made to the capital. Since the main products that are sold are made by me, I will receive 60% of the profits. If possible, I will give the cream to Manager Si next month.”

Ning Huan planned to take out the Jade Lotus Dew from her consciousness space. This ointment and the Jade Complexion Cream only had different effects on skin beautification. The Jade Lotus Dew was specially made with expensive medicinal materials. If she sold it to wealthy places in the capital, it would be a good choice.

Si Yan nodded after hearing Ning Huan's introduction of Yu Fulu, and then turned to indicate to Xiao Qi that it was indeed quite good. The group then made their decision.

On the way back, Ning Huan discussed things with Si Yan again in the carriage. Si Yan probably understood that Ning Huan wanted to do some business in town. He said to her, "If you come to town in the future and have any other things you want to do, Renjitang will definitely do its best to help you."

There was no other reason. The medicinal materials that Ning Huan had been providing to Renjitang, as well as the patients she had helped treat over the years, had long since made her relationship with Renjitang more than just a simple cooperation.

Hearing Si Yan's words, Ning Huan felt a strange warmth in her heart. However, there was indeed something she needed Si Yan's help with right now, so she said, "There's something I really need Manager Si's help with."

It was rare for Si Yan to hear Ning Huan ask him for a favor, so he asked curiously, "What is it?"

Because she had discussed going to town with Zhou Jing'an, Ning Huan planned to buy a large house there so that it would be convenient for her to live with her four little ones when she came to town to do business.

This was not a difficult task, so Si Yan agreed and said he would help Ning Huan take a good look at the house.
