Chapter 835 Doing Business with the Fake Princess



This sentence shocked everyone. Looking at the crossed wrists of Fu Ya and the injured person, it was true that the place where Fu Ya pinched was not a vein, but an ordinary place on the wrist.

Someone burst out laughing and said to the old doctor: "It is impossible for a god to diagnose a disease by just scratching the wrist!"

Someone even asked Fu Ya directly, "Princess, what are you doing?"

Fu Ya was embarrassed by what she said, and she was extremely anxious, but fortunately she didn't show it on her face. She quickly reacted to this matter in her heart, thought of a way to deal with it, and hurriedly replied: "It is different from the methods you have seen on weekdays. This is the medical skills I learned from my Persian master. It is not commonly used in Dashun." She still had a certain understanding of Feng Yuheng, so she made up this lie, and then without waiting for people to say anything, she quickly took out the pills from her sleeve pocket and handed them to the old doctor beside her, "This medicine, twice a day, one pill each time, take it for seven days to keep your life safe." Fu Ya actually didn't know what kind of medicine it was, but Feng Jinyuan told her that it could cure this kind of horse trampling injury, so there must be no problem.

The old doctor glanced at her and said nothing, but focused his eyes on the pills in his hand. The pills were prescribed from Baicaotang in Beijing. Feng Yuheng repackaged them and replaced the plastic sheets with special paper. They still looked very high-end. The old doctor had been living in the South Realm and had heard of this kind of pills, but had never seen them. When he saw them today, he felt that they were very magical. He put them under his nose and smelled them, but there was not much smell. He couldn't help but doubt how effective such a small thing could be. How could it be comparable to the Chinese medicine soup made from so many herbs?

Xiao Taoer saw the doubt in the old doctor's heart, and raised the corners of her lips slightly, with self-confidence rising spontaneously: "Princess Ji'an is good at using pills and tablets, and disdains to give patients bitter medicine soups. This is known to everyone in the world. Old doctor, please don't be confused anymore. This kind of pill is also inherited from Persian medicine. We don't have it in Dashun. Because Baicaotang has not opened in the southern border, this kind of thing is still new here, but it is no longer a rare thing in the capital. It's just that the medicine is expensive, not everyone can afford it."

Fu Ya quickly pretended to rebuke Xiao Taoer: "What do you mean by expensive or not? If it is used properly and can cure patients, it is worth it. No matter how expensive something is, it can't be used for dignitaries. Don't say such things again in the future."

Xiao Taoer immediately bowed her head and admitted her mistake, and Fu Ya's words also won a round of applause from the people outside. She breathed a sigh of relief, and did not stay any longer. She stood up and said goodbye, and hurried back to Feng Mansion amid the applause of the people.

Xiao Tao'er was a little scared, and only said to Fu Ya after the door of the mansion was closed: "It was a close call. How come you don't even know how to take a pulse?" If you want to play the role of a miracle doctor, you should at least have an idea in your mind and figure out the basics, right?

Fu Ya just didn't think about it, and she had overlooked this point in her calculations. Thinking about it now, cold sweats broke out in her eyes, and she felt a little guilty when she saw Feng Jinyuan again.

The servants were sent away by Feng Jinyuan, and the two came to the study. Fu Ya told him what happened just now again. Feng Jinyuan wanted to blame her, but he also knew that this was not his biological daughter after all. He was afraid that Fu Ya would be upset if he said too much. Fortunately, his temper is not the same as before, and his confidence is not as good as when he was the left prime minister. People who have suffered losses at least have lost a little wisdom. He now gradually understands that getting angry is not the best way to solve problems. The important thing is to think about how to help Fu Ya overcome this difficulty. He pondered for a while and said, "It is definitely too late to learn medical skills, but at least you have to understand the basic common sense, at least you won't be in a situation like today where you can't even feel the pulse."

Fu Ya nodded: "Yes, today's incident was indeed an accident, but how can I learn?"

Feng Jinyuan thought about it again and said, "I will go to the prefecture right away and ask Lord Ji to send a doctor over. It would be better if he is a confidant. If not, he must be the kind who can be killed after being taught. In short, this matter must not be used against anyone else, otherwise something bad will happen. The three of us are here, and our fates are closely related. If you succeed, I succeed too. If I am well, you will be well too. We must not undermine each other."

Feng Jinyuan opened up, and Fu Ya nodded seriously: "My daughter understands, please rest assured, father."

As the two were talking, a servant came in and reported, "There is a herbal medicine merchant from Lanzhou who wants to see the princess."

Fu Ya was puzzled and asked, "Did you tell me why?"

The servant replied, "The other party only said that he came to discuss a business with the princess, but he didn't say what the business was. But that person has been trading herbs in Lanzhou for many years, so I think it should be related to this."

Fu Ya looked at Feng Jinyuan, but heard him say, "Tell that person to wait in the hall and have some tea." Then he said to Fu Ya, "The person who came here has bad intentions. I'm afraid it's related to medical skills. Your father will go with you, but you must not let anyone get in again."

Fu Ya was relieved to have Feng Jinyuan with her. She was not afraid of anything else, but she was afraid of encountering things related to medical practice. She didn't know anything about it, and she would make a fool of herself if she was not careful.

The two of them came to the hall, where they saw a man sitting. He looked to be about 40 years old, dressed in noble clothes, and looked very smart. He was obviously a businessman. When the man saw them coming out, he quickly stood up, saluted Fu Ya, and said sincerely, "I pay my respects to the princess."

Fu Ya nodded, and tried her best to find the feeling when Feng Yuheng was talking: "Get up, no need to be polite." Then she said to the servant: "Why didn't you serve tea to the master?"

After thanking him, the man kept saying “I dare not, I dare not”, and then bowed to Feng Jinyuan, “I have long heard of Mr. Feng’s great name, but I have never been able to meet him because of the long journey. Today is a great honor for me.”

Feng Jinyuan chuckled and took the main seat. Fu Ya also sat next to him. Feng Jinyuan said, "I used to live in the capital and never came to the south. This time, I moved to Lanzhou with my wife and daughter. I would like to thank the people of Lanzhou and the prefect for their care. I just heard from the servants that you are in the medicinal materials business?"

The man also sat on the chair and answered with a smile: "Sir, you are right. My name is Fang Rujiang. I have been doing herbal medicine business in Luotianfu in the southern border and Lanzhou for many years. I have also opened several herbal medicine shops. Recently, I heard that Princess Ji'an came to Lanzhou. I came here because of her reputation. I didn't hand over my name card in advance. I hope the princess won't blame me."

Feng Jinyuan smiled but said nothing. He just nodded slightly and looked at Fu Ya. Fu Ya took a sip of tea and asked the man, "Why did Mr. Fang come here?"

Fang Rujiang didn't hesitate. When Fu Ya asked, he immediately said, "To be honest with you, Princess, let's talk business. I came here to ask you if you have any plans to open a Baicaotang in Lanzhou. I heard that you have opened Baicaotang in many provinces, including Kyoto, but not in the southern border. Now that you are in Lanzhou, if you have this intention, I am willing to do my best to help you."

"Oh?" Fu Ya's heart thumped. She was just having a headache about the medical skills, and now Baicaotang was brought up again. What day was it today? Was he deliberately trying to go against her? But even if she was upset, she couldn't show it on her face, especially since Feng Jinyuan had just glanced at her, which clearly meant to remind her not to make any more mistakes in this matter. She also thought that Feng Yuheng had indeed opened many Baicaotangs as that person said, which meant that Baicaotang was a very important thing for Feng Yuheng. Speaking of such an important thing, she had to be serious about it.

As if thinking, Fu Ya picked up the teacup and brought it to her mouth, but she was actually thinking about what to say next. After a while, she finally put it down, and she had some thoughts in her mind. She said again: "The reason why Baicaotang didn't open to the southern border is that this place was commanded by the Biannan Army. Starting from Luotian Mansion, all the way to the south, the city defense is guarded by the Biannan Army. The Biannan Army is commanded by His Highness the Eighth Prince. Everyone knows that this princess was engaged to the Ninth Prince when she was young, so she didn't consider this place." What she said was reasonable, and Fang Rujiang nodded repeatedly.

Feng Jinyuan also continued: "The engagement with His Majesty the Ninth Prince was a childhood thing, and it was arranged when the Queen Mother was still alive." He waved his hands as he spoke: "It's better not to talk about this matter, it's all my Feng family's internal affairs."

Fu Ya nodded and continued, "If His Majesty the Ninth Prince and I have already called off our engagement and have come to the Southern Realm, then I should consider the matter of Baicaotang. But as you know, my father, mother and I have just arrived and are not familiar with everything here. We have never thought about taking care of Baicaotang so soon, so... there is no rush."

She said that this matter was not urgent, and she really didn't want to mention it anymore. But Fang Rujiang was very sincere and kept persuading her: "The South Border is a border, not to mention that fights often happen, it is also a hot area, and the herbal medicine business is very good, not to mention that the princess has excellent medical skills. I still say that we are doing business, if Baicaotang can be opened in the South Border, it will be a great thing for the people of the South Border. Of course, the profit here is also very profitable. I heard that the princess is now fully supporting the Eighth Prince, which means she is supporting the South Border Army. For the army, medicine and money are a great guarantee."

Fu Ya nodded, "That's right. I will consider this matter. Sir, please leave your contact information with the servants at home so that we can contact you in the future."

Fang Rujiang was delighted when he heard this and quickly agreed. He then repeatedly said that if they really wanted to set up Baicaotang, Fu Ya didn't need to worry about the store, herbs, and shop assistants. He would arrange everything and provide both money and manpower. He just needed Princess Ji'an to put her name on it, and then provide some of the same tablets and pills used in Baicaotang in other provinces. The two of them would split the profit 40% to 60%, and he would only take 40% and let Fu Ya take the majority, or he could take 30%. He always hoped to have a chance to cooperate with Princess Ji'an, so that he would not have wasted his half-life in the herbal medicine business, and it would be a reward for his fame and status.

Finally, after getting to know Fang Rujiang, Fu Ya frowned and asked Feng Jinyuan, "What does father think about this?"

Without waiting for Feng Jinyuan to answer, Yao suddenly walked into the hall and said firmly: "It can't be opened!"
