Chapter 301: Food is not a difficult issue to solve.
"Look, we all have some medicinal herbs with us."
The aunt weighed the luggage of the two people, and seeing that Meixi was busy reuniting with her friends, the aunt did not disturb them.
He, Ruan Mian, and Ruan Qingsong gathered all the sick people in the nursing home.
Give them all a unified diagnosis and treatment.
Except for some people who are already disabled, the others do not have serious illnesses. They are just suffering from some underlying diseases caused by malnutrition.
As long as the food supply keeps up and the heating conditions are better, we can get out of these difficulties.
Of course, some drugs are also needed for auxiliary treatment.
The food issue is not difficult to solve.
"Aunt, come with me to the Xinrong Health Center later. I want to meet Mother Lou and Miss Xu."
Her aunt had guessed her thoughts: "Do you want to use Mama Lou and the others to donate some food to the nursing home regularly?"
As expected, her aunt understood her: "People's hearts are unpredictable. If you just give them money, won't things get out of hand once we leave?"
"We get dividends every month at the health club, and using that little bit of money to help these people is also considered a good deed."
Ruan Qingsong obviously didn't expect that they had such moral integrity.
"Miss, if you donate every month, it will be a considerable amount of money. Will this make you..."
"This little bit of money is within my means, but I can't give you more."
"Brother, if we really want to solve this problem from the root, we have to start with the king."
"If the world were peaceful and prosperous, why would the people suffer so much? Of course, every dynasty has had class divisions, but relatively speaking, if the monarch is wise and the subjects are united, then generally speaking, the people will live a better life."
"If the throne falls into the hands of a foolish and incompetent person who abuses his power for personal gain, how can there be peace in the world? The people will be in dire straits, unable to save themselves."
Having said this, Ruan Mian suddenly stopped talking.
"It's disrespectful to discuss state affairs without permission. Fortunately, there are only a few of us acquaintances here, so please don't let this get out."
She smiled, not knowing that Ruan Qingsong's eyes had changed a lot when he looked at her.
"Miss, if you are truly my biological sister, I, as your brother, would be ashamed of myself." Ruan Mian laughed and joked, "Brother, you just can't remember anything right now. You used to be a merchant, but you were able to pass the imperial examination and enter the official career through your own ability. If it weren't for the evil people who interfered, how could you have ended up in that faraway place like Wu Heng?"
"Brother, you have great ambitions. I am simply following your path. So even though you have gone through this hardship, I sincerely hope you can bounce back and not underestimate yourself!"
Ruan Qingsong was encouraged and nodded vigorously.
After working in the nursing home for an entire afternoon, they finally settled everything there.
It was too hasty to leave today, so they simply went back to the city to rest for one night. Ruan Mian and her aunt stopped by the health center to arrange the funeral arrangements for the donation to the nursing home.
On the way to the health club, the aunt took out a new thing to show Ruan Mian.
"Mianmian, look what this is?"
Ruan Mian looked over and saw a musket made of wrought iron and bronze on the carriage.
It is more portable than the simple musket they made last time.
Ruan Mian was a little curious: "Where did this come from? This era hasn't developed to the point where we have this kind of firearm, right?"
"I've never found such a sophisticated musket in all the military supplies I've confiscated before. I wanted to improve it back then, but time and supplies were limited, so I couldn't put the energy into it."
My aunt quickly said, "This is the first time I've seen this either. I stole it from a servant in that shady shop."
"I figured this was the only one they had, so after I took it, they didn't even have a chance to shoot. You said those black-hearted people had this thing. Does that mean Wen Qiang, who's in cahoots with them, also knows something?"
"Let's follow this trail further. Could it be that the rebels have acquired advanced weapons?"
What my aunt said reminded Ruan Mian.
Her guess is possible.
Looking at this musket, it is obviously more portable and sophisticated than the muskets and cannons in the armory, but it is a bit heavy.
If it was really made by Prince Yan and his party, wouldn't they have a natural advantage when launching a rebellion and attacking Kyoto?
Dajing had few firearms, and the previous muskets were heavy, long, and crudely made, making them inconvenient to use in warfare.
The range is also not ideal.
Thinking of this, Ruan Mian took the rifle and looked at it carefully.
My aunt quickly warned: "Be careful, don't fire it!"
Ruan Mian smiled and said, "This thing is not well made. There is still a lot of room for improvement. It won't go off so easily."
When my aunt heard this, she immediately became interested: "Mianmian, could it be that you can improve firearms?"
Ruan Mian glanced around and saw that there was no written material, so he simply spoke briefly.
"In the era I lived in, surviving was difficult. You had to master many skills to avoid danger, and crafting weapons was even easier."
"Once we get to the health club, I'll draw a blueprint and make some improvements to it tonight."
"If I remember correctly, there's a blacksmith shop on the street behind the health club, right? Have them forge some important parts for us, and I'll assemble them. This ignition mechanism will be a flint wheel, with a trigger connecting the flower wheel. Once the trigger is pulled, the flower wheel rotates, creating friction with the flint above, instantly igniting a blazing flame."
"However, this musket has a short range, is powerful, and has a large recoil. Naturally, it is more prone to accidental discharge than it is now."
"But it's powerful enough! Even though I don't understand the principle you're talking about just now, I think it's powerful enough. As long as you can do it, that's enough!"
"If we had such advanced weapons, wouldn't we be able to move around easily?"
"Hey! You can even sell arms? Oh my god, I'm about to become rich enough to rival a country!"
At this moment, my aunt seemed to have imagined the scene of them being hit by a large amount of silver and money and unable to get up.
My mind is full of gold ingots.
The arms trade, no matter when it started, is definitely a big money-maker.
Ruan Mian didn't think that far ahead. After all, if he really wanted to do this deal, it would involve a lot of things and there would be a lot more to do.
She now has so much gold, silver, and jewelry in her space, as well as so many treasures in Longchang Mountain, and the space can make her money, so she has no shortage of them.
Now I am thinking about how to develop Wu Heng, how to help Xie Huaian and quell the rebellion.
Things that make you the richest man will come naturally, and you can do other businesses as well.
But she agreed with her aunt's words: "With this thing, we can walk sideways."
