The two men followed the passers-by and stepped aside, watching the yamen runner in the middle walk to the government notice board and post three notices in one breath.

As soon as they left, everyone gathered around and asked, "What's written on this? Is there anyone who can understand and explain it?"

Even the announcements at the border are different from those in other places. Perhaps to take care of the people, each notice has a very abstract "painting" drawn on it.

One pictured a man kneeling on the ground with his hands tied and locked up. The second pictured a chicken and a tree. The last pictured a flower of unknown variety.

Ji Changying and the dog squeezed to the front, looked at the three notices above, and couldn't help but read out loud in surprise:

"Now ministers who disobey the emperor and defy his will have emerged one after another. Prince Duan Zhongli Jinghui was the first to abuse his power, and Yang Xian followed suit with his conspiracy..."

After reading it all the way through, I found out that Prince Duan's conspiracy to rebel was exposed, and all those who stood with Prince Duan were killed along with their entire clans. Prince Duan himself did not die, but was demoted to a commoner and imprisoned for life.

But this is worse than death.

The dog scratched his head and said, "Sister Ji, what do you mean?"

Everyone around was listening attentively, and Ji Changying translated the content.

"Oh, after all this time, the guy who was locked up is Prince Duan? Does he look like this?"

"I don't think he's that good! He looks like a decent person, but I didn't expect him to be so useless. Ugh!"

"I think these people are just living too comfortably and eating too much. Let's wait a couple of years and see if they still have the mood to rebel..."

The people around pointed at the little man drawn on the notice and cursed.

She was still eager to gossip and pulled Ji Changying to stop her from leaving: "Girl, what did those two pictures say? Tell me at the same time."

This request was not excessive. Ji Changying also said, "This card says that a prescription has been developed for the epidemic in Liangzhou. A large amount of chicken gizzard lining and phellodendron chinense is needed. If anyone has some, they can take it to the county government to sell for money."

As soon as the news came out, the people around immediately shifted their attention and started a heated discussion.

"Girl, what is this chicken gizzard lining mentioned here? Can gold grow inside a chicken?"

"Yeah, what is Huang Bai?"

Ji Changying frowned and looked at it. There was no explanation on the notice. It only said that those who were interested in knowing more could go to the county government office to ask.

"Chicken's gizzard lining is supposed to be a part of the chicken's body. You'd have to ask the old doctor for details, but it says here that if you're interested, you can go to the county government office and ask."

"That's right, this girl isn't a doctor. If you want to know something, just go to the county government office and ask! Girl, what does the rest of the picture say?"

The last document was even more abstract, and Ji Changying still couldn't figure out what kind of flower was painted on it.

"The whole city is looking for a skilled gardener to cure Lanhua. The reward for curing Lanhua is fifty taels. If you are interested, please go to the county government office to inquire."

"whispering sound!"

After listening to the third piece of content, everyone made the same statement.

The first piece of news can at least be treated as gossip, the second piece of news is relevant to everyone for the time being, and the third piece of news is completely ignored by everyone.

Gou'er looked at Ji Changying with admiration: "Sister Ji is so amazing! She knows so many words!"

Ji Changying pulled him out of the crowd thoughtfully. Hearing his words, she couldn't help but laugh: "Just knowing how to read is so impressive?"

The dog looked mysterious and lowered his voice quietly: "I will tell you a secret."

"Although everyone says that studying is useless and that when the barbarians attack, we still have to rely on fists, but Sister Ji, have you noticed that among the rich and powerful, which one can't read? Which one is illiterate?"

"This proves how important studying is! Anyone who says studying is useless is just fooling fools! I won't be fooled! In fact, every time I go to the escort company, besides spying on them practicing, I also secretly learn Uncle Dalin's counting skills."

The dog's face was full of pride.

Ji Changying was really surprised. Gou'er really didn't look like an eight-year-old child at all. At such a young age, when everyone around him was saying that studying was useless, he actually saw through the essence with his young eyes.

"But it's wrong for you to learn by stealing. If someone takes your things without you knowing, will you be angry?"

The dog glared and said, "I'll be very angry!"

"That's right! The same applies to stealing knowledge. You should go back and apologize to Uncle Dalin and ask for his forgiveness."

The dog's head drooped, and he said sullenly, "I know."

Ji Changying patted his head comfortingly: "If I have time in the future, you can come to me and I will teach you! I can not only read, but also count."

The dog's eyes lit up: "Really? That's great!"

"Sister doesn't lie to children."

Hearing Ji Changying's words, Gou'er was very excited and enthusiastically took her to the place where local specialties were sold.

Ji Changying didn't dare to buy more.

Because it’s too expensive!

Ginseng, deer antler, various tiger skins, bear skins, mink skins and fox skins.

None of these things are affordable for ordinary people. If I really buy them all and send them back, I'm afraid my grandma will be very upset.

Ji Changying bought some hazelnuts and dried mushrooms and planned to send them back, but the quantity was small, and there was not much left between the two families, so he was a little troubled.

"The frostbite cream here is more effective than that of other places. If anyone has frostbite on their hands and feet and it's painful and itchy, you can buy some and apply it. It works very well!"

The dog sniffed his nose while attentively introducing Ji Changying.

"Buy it!" Ji Changying felt it made a lot of sense and decided to buy more without hesitation.

Gou'er took Ji Changying to Puji Medical Clinic, which looked very lively with people coming and going.

She had initially thought these people were there to see a doctor, but upon closer inspection, she saw many of them simply gathered around, not being treated. Some were asking the doctor inside, "What is chicken gizzard lining? How do we get it?"

The old doctor stroked his beard and asked, "Have you seen the announcement?"

"Not so good. I heard the county government wants something like phellodendron and chicken gizzard lining. They only said they wanted money but didn't say what they were!"

The old doctor seemed in a good mood. "Chicken's gizzard lining is the inner wall of the chicken's gizzard. After killing the chicken, take out the gizzard, immediately peel off the inner wall, wash it and dry it, then stir-fry it with hot sand, wait for it to swell up, spray it with vinegar, take it out and dry it.

"Huangbai is the bark of the Huangpi tree you mentioned. After peeling it, remove the rough bark, wash it, slice it, add salt water, and stir-fry it over low heat until it is dry."

It was quiet all around.

The person who had come to ask excitedly just now now frowned and looked resistant.

The old doctor saw the expressions on their faces and seemed to be able to guess what they were thinking. He said mischievously, "If all else fails, you can always go ask the county government if they will accept chickens and kumquat trees. With the way you're going, I don't think we can expect you to produce a finished product."

This is absolutely true. The people in the county government really want to collect some chickens and kumquat trees.

Because Liangzhou is in great shortage of medicinal materials, the only way is to use fresh herbs. Although the old doctor doesn't know the situation in Liangzhou, he can guess a thing or two.
