The fat woman asked about the price while looking at the tofu stall with picky eyes. Her tofu business had been severely damaged by this group of people in the past two days.

Humph, everyone's open to do business. She sells five-spice powder and also sells fried tofu. Let's see who can sell more?!

She was still very confident in this regard. She had already found out before coming that this group of people were refugees who fled to Beichuan County and they started to steal her family's business as soon as they arrived.

Her Li's Tofu Shop has been doing business in Beichuan County for so many years, relying on its own capabilities, and will not be seriously affected by an outsider!

There were many guests who knew Li, and Jiang Huaixu captured a lot of information when they talked to people around them.

"That tigress from the Li Tofu family is definitely going to make trouble!"

"Who wouldn't be angry if their business was taken away?"

"If you ask me, this tofu is indeed not as good as Li's tofu. It still lacks the right heat. It can't stand up to the taste of their fried tofu. When you add that spicy powder, it makes you feel hot all over. If it were colder, it would definitely sell better..."

"Why did Li buy the five-spice powder?"

"Why else? Fight in a ring!"

······

After listening to almost everything, Jiang Wei beside him also weighed out three pounds of five-spice powder. Jiang Huaixu took the cloth bag handed to him by Li and filled it with the five-spice powder.

"Auntie, if the food is good, you are welcome to come again next time!" After counting the silver, she smiled with her eyes curved. Facing the fat woman with fire in her eyes, she was not afraid at all. Instead, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

Not long after the fat woman left, the remaining five-spice powder was quickly sold out.

They brought a total of more than ten pounds of five-spice powder in bulk, and the rest were packaged. A rough calculation showed that the gross profit of the five-spice powder alone was four or five taels of silver.

During the selling process, Jiang Huaixu told the vendors and people coming to the restaurant that he could deliver the goods to their door. Some people immediately decided to send them some every three days, and some people said they would go back and ask.

Jiang Huaixu quickly wrote down the name of the shop that needed to be delivered five-spice powder and the quantity to be delivered. This was considered a short-term cooperative customer.

Seeing that there weren't many people at the tofu stall and four people were enough to handle it, Jiang Huaixu took some grilled tofu and fried bean cakes and took Jiang Wei to Qingnang Pavilion to buy medicinal materials for grinding five-spice powder.

On the way, Jiang Wei asked in confusion, "Little sister, I heard that the fat lady just now is the owner of the Li's Tofu Shop. Why did you sell her five-spice powder? What if they also learn to make iron plate tofu?"

"Sister, do you think she can't do it if we don't sell it to her?" Jiang Huaixu asked.

Jiang Wei was about to nod, but then she subconsciously felt that her younger sister would definitely not ask this question for no reason. She pondered it carefully in her heart, and suddenly her eyes lit up, "I know!"

"If we don't sell it to this fat lady, she'll find someone else to buy it from. Who knows who those people who buy the five-spice powder are from?"

Jiang Huaixu nodded repeatedly. "That's right. Even if there weren't Li's tofu shop, there might still be Wang's or Chen's. As long as they can make money, more people will do it. We can't be so restrained as to not dare to sell five-spice powder just because they want to do the same business as us. You know, we agreed from the beginning that selling five-spice powder is the real business. Besides, our tofu now has chili powder in it, which is unique. What's there to be afraid of?"

After hearing this, Jiang Wei asked, "Will someone learn how to make our five-spice powder?"

Since this is their legitimate business, they can’t let anyone find out the recipe like they did with grilled tofu.

She asked her youngest sister last night that as long as she came to the county town to help, she could get paid at the end of the month.

Apart from selling mushrooms, this is the first time in her life that she has earned money and received wages, so she is particularly concerned about it.

Jiang Huaixu was very confident about this. "Even if they knew what spices were in it, it would be difficult for them to mix them out. If they did, don't worry, I can still upgrade our five-spice powder. Let them figure it out slowly!"

After listening to Yaomei's explanation, Jiang Wei suddenly understood.

She said happily: "We are unique!"

When the two of them arrived at Qingnang Pavilion excitedly, they found that there seemed to be a lot of people gathered at the door.

There were also incessant cries and screams coming from inside.

The two men were small in stature, and soon they squeezed in the crowd and reached the door of the pharmacy.

A young boy of fifteen or sixteen was lying on the ground in front of the Qingnang Pavilion, covered in blood. Beside him was a woman in brocade clothes crying bitterly, and kept begging the doctors to save the boy's life.

The doctors at Qingnang Hall all looked troubled, probably thinking there was no hope.

Jiang Huaixu looked at the boy's injuries. The wound should be in the abdomen. The bleeding had almost stopped, but the man's face was still as pale as paper, with no signs of relief. This injury definitely did not look as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Jiang Huaixu found Dr. Kang in the crowd and quietly pulled Jiang Wei to his side.

"Doctor Kang, how was this man injured?"

When Kang Ping saw that it was Jiang Huaixu, hope immediately lit up in his eyes, but it dimmed again in an instant.

Their Qingnang Hall has the best medical skills. Doctor Qiao, who has been practicing medicine for more than 30 years, can only shake his head silently. Can Jiang Huaixu really save the person?

"This is the son of the county lieutenant of Beichuan County. He had an argument with a classmate at the county school, and that classmate actually took out a knife and stabbed him. If it were an ordinary knife wound, it would be fine, but this one hit his internal organs and caused him to bleed profusely. There's nothing he can do about it."

Jiang Huaixu didn't know why there was no other way. After thinking about it, he thought that no one had ever performed an abdominal surgery before.

If Fu Tuan was here, she could try to save the man, but Fu Tuan wasn't there. This was her first time performing an abdominal surgery. If she succeeded, it would be fine, but if she didn't, she might have to bear the responsibility. She shook her head inwardly, thinking, no, no.

Jiang Huaixu looked at the dying boy with pity. This was a huge amount of points!

[Host, why do you miss me so much after not seeing me for just one day? ]

As if he heard Fu Tuan's voice, Jiang Huaixu was in a trance for a moment and quickly sank his consciousness into space.

When she saw Fu Tuan lying leisurely in the pile of tomatoes, she was shocked and asked, "Why are you here?"

Now that Futuan has a physical entity, they don't need to stay together all the time. She was afraid of scaring the guests, so she didn't bring Futuan to the county town these two days.

Fu Tuan patted his round belly and said, "As long as I enter the space, I can communicate with the host! Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

[What? Earning points!] Jiang Huaixu was filled with joy. [Scanning the person on the ground to see if he can still be saved.]
