While An Yi was still in a daze, An Le took an alcohol swab and wiped Yu Rong's hand, then skillfully inserted the syringe into Yu Rong's hand.

With fluent movements, he untied the leather strap that was binding Yu Rong's arm in one smooth motion, and then used medical tape to secure the needle.

"Don't move your arm too much while this IV is infusion. You can only move it after the needle is removed."

Watching the needle pierce Yu Rong's hand, An Yi swallowed hard, finding it hard to bear the sight.

"Does it hurt?"

Yu Rong shook his head, a rare occurrence, as if he had been bitten by a mosquito and felt no pain at all.

Anle put his hands on his hips.

"Tch, it's just an IV drip, how much pain could it cause? This is not the same as sticking a needle directly into flesh, I'm sticking it into a vein, understand?"

An Yi shook her head. "I don't understand, little sister. What's in this jar? It looks like water."

"It's just water, only saline solution, with some rehydration and vitamin C added. It's specifically for patients who have been poisoned by snake venom."

An Yi stared blankly at the hanging bottle.

"I still don't understand. I think it's snake venom. We should let the doctor in town take a look. Little sister, don't do anything reckless."

Anle pouted, muttered something, and rolled her eyes.

"You really don't trust me?"

Would I possibly harm him?

"Of course I'd only give him this medicine if I was absolutely certain!"

The next day at daybreak, Anle followed Anmancang into town and led the ox to the carpenter's shop.

"Lewa, you wait here, I'm going inside to find your uncle to pull the cart."

"Dad, wait a minute, I'll go in with you. I also have something to do; our shop needs to be renovated."

I'm planning to remodel that window to my liking, and I'll need to get some frames custom-made, so I'll take care of that while I'm at it.

Following An Mancang into the shop, we saw several carpenters busy with their work.

Upon seeing them enter, one of the men put down his work and cheerfully came over to greet them.

"Mancang is here. Your job is all done and we're just waiting for you to collect it. He's in the back. I'll take you there."

An Mancang rubbed his hands together and gave the man a simple, honest smile.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Yizhong."

"I have something to take care of, so I thought I'd share it with you all," An Yizhong said, glancing at An Le with a smile in his eyes.

"Your daughter's temperament is really unlike either of you two; she's quite fierce."

Anle blinked and looked at An Yizhong with a puzzled expression. What did he mean by that? Why did he suddenly say something like that?

“Le Wa Zi, Shou Shan told me about the toothbrush last night.”

Anle stared at An Yizhong in surprise. Toothbrush?

Could this person be the mountain guard's father?

"Is what Uncle is talking about about the toothbrush?"

"Yes, your thing is really ingeniously made."

It works better than willow twigs.

I showed it to the shopkeeper, and he was quite satisfied. He thought about making some and sending them to wealthy families, which would surely sell well.

And that toothpaste, if we paired it with your toothpaste, it would definitely sell well; it's sure to be a great sales strategy.”

Anle nodded with a smile.

"The toothpaste and toothbrush are of good quality, but as I said, the price must be set according to my wishes."

An Yizhong readily agreed.

"Okay, that's easy to discuss. What price do you want for Lewazi?"

Anle, with the smug look of a businessman, began to boast and promote his own wares.

Toothpaste is very good for teeth.

Not only is it incredibly convenient and easy to use for cleaning teeth, but it also offers significant benefits for teeth, helping to protect them. It's made with medicinal herbs.

This is because medicine isn't cheap; Uncle should understand that.

Since this product is intended for sale to wealthy households, I will sell each tube of toothpaste for fifty coins.

"Of course, that's the selling price. Here, we'll naturally sell it to you at a lower price so you can also make a profit."

An Yizhong stared at An Le with wide eyes, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"What?

Fifty coins?

Le Wa Zi, you're asking for the moon!

You're going to sell a tube of toothpaste for fifty coins?

You've sold this for an astronomical price!

How could it possibly be sold?

Anle smiled, her eyes crinkling.

“Exorbitant price? No, this is just a very ordinary price. For wealthy families, fifty coins is not expensive at all.”

Besides, this toothpaste isn't something you can use up in a day; one tube is enough to last a long time. If you calculate it by the day, you won't even need to spend a single coin a day.

It's like asking these wealthy families to contribute just one coin a day; it's actually quite a bargain!

An Yizhong's expression paused for a moment, then softened. If that's the case, it does seem to make sense.

"Then I'll ask the shopkeeper and see what he says."

Anle chuckled.

"Besides, Uncle is probably just trying to sell toothbrushes, right? He's only making this toothpaste to make it easier to sell as a set."

Once you get used to it, this toothbrush is a consumable item. As long as you can open up sales channels, it will definitely be a source of continuous business.

Moreover, I'll make sure you profit from this toothpaste business; it's a sure-fire way to make money.
