Chapter 448: Lack of Medical Care and Medicine
Shen Qingqian didn't know the specific situation of the men fighting, but after a night of high-intensity work, she was very clear that the Hubei North Army's medicinal materials were almost used up.
"Brother Sun, when will my second brother and the others send the herbs over?" Shen Qingqian sat on a small stool, pinching his shoulders and asking little Sun who was massaging his legs.
Xiao Sun thought for a moment and said, "It should be in the next two days, but the crops we've harvested haven't been processed yet, and some of them can't be used yet. We have to save them."
Shen Qingqian thought to herself that this was already very economical, but the Zhao Wang Army and the Hubei Northern Army were both very fierce. When the two sides met, they really fought to the death. Many people were injured, but there were very few superficial injuries that did not require medicine.
Just now, Shen Qingqian took advantage of the chaos to mix in the stock from the system warehouse, but it was a drop in the bucket and still couldn't keep up with the speed of consumption.
"This won't work. I'll go find Doctor Hu." Shen Qingqian rested for a while, regained some strength, and quickly got up.
The food problem can be handled for now, but the consumption of medicinal materials is very high, and if there is no supply, it will be really over.
Doctor Hu was tired after a night of sleep and was old. After returning to the tent that had been set up specially for him, he almost fell asleep as soon as he lay down.
When Shen Qingqian came over, she had to shout several times before waking him up.
"Girl, is there something wrong?" Doctor Hu tilted his head, covered his mouth and yawned.
Shen Qingqian explained the current stock of medicinal herbs and their rate of use, and then said, "Doctor Hu, I want to open up a medicinal field nearby and ask the locals to plant them. I will tell you the detailed planting methods."
"Is this the rapid growth method we have over there?" Doctor Hu's eyes suddenly lit up.
Facts have proved that Shen Qingqian's method is very effective. Several batches of harvests have been made in the medicinal fields near the Hubei North Military Camp. Except for the medicinal herbs that grow very slowly, the yields of other medicinal herbs are also higher than those grown by ordinary farmers.
Shen Qingqian nodded. "Yes, I also want to promote this method in northern Hubei. In the future, we can grow different medicinal herbs according to the soil conditions of each place. Not only can we supply the army, but we can also sell them to pharmacies to increase the income of the people."
People's livelihood is usually linked to one another. For example, if the cultivation of medicinal herbs can be promoted in northern Hubei, it will not only boost the local economy, but also solve the problem of the source of medicinal herbs for the northern Hubei army, and provide supplies for future caravans, killing two birds with one stone.
"Okay! I'll take care of the several seriously injured patients tomorrow and then I'll do this right away. I'll hand it over to you after it's done." Doctor Hu said happily.
A large-scale ancient war could not be fought in a few days, or one or two months. In many cases, the time span might exceed three months.
This time is enough for Shen Qingqian to replenish the medicinal material supply of the Hubei Northern Army through the planting methods of the Wanjie Medical Classic and the help of accelerated fertilizers.
However, apart from this, Shen Qingqian had another idea.
After leaving Doctor Hu, she asked someone where Sheng Ze was, and then went to find him.
"Sixth sister, you are looking for me." Someone came to tell Sheng Ze that Shen Qingqian came to see him. He couldn't believe it, but he didn't expect it was really her.
Shen Qingqian nodded, "I need your help with something, can we talk alone?"
Upon hearing this, Sheng Ze didn't ask any questions and took Shen Qingqian to a corner.
"What's up"
"I want to release the sacred spring. If you drink this water, it can repair the wounds in your body. If the soldiers drink the sacred spring water during this period, they can save a lot of medicinal materials."
Shen Qingqian looked at him seriously, her eyes clear.
