Not to mention the round management.

There are only two things that worry him most in his life.

One was the money owed to my brothers;

One thing is the poison in the young master.

As long as the money is still owed and the young master's poison is not cured, Manager Yuan will not be able to sleep well.

However, Xuezhu and the elder of the house did not have much feeling.

They were simply called here by Manager Yuan.

Xuezhu is still thinking about his cloth, and Mr. Zhai is still thinking about his bed.

Both of them hoped that this small discussion would end soon so that they could go back to their own work.

Poison Lady handed the antidote recipe to Wu Weian.

Wu Weian took the prescription, glanced at it, paused, and subconsciously said, "So long?"

Poison Lady: "There are 72 herbs in total, and each one is not an ordinary herb. But Ji Mingyan's yard has a lot of good things, so I took 20 herbs from him. There are still 52 herbs to collect."

Wu Weian didn't really want to read it, so he handed it to Manager Yuan and said, "You handle it."

Having said that, he went into the bedroom, out of sight, out of mind.

About half an hour later, Ji Yunxi's carriage stopped outside the courtyard.

When she returned to the courtyard, she found that there were many people in the bedroom today.

Wu Weian's four servants were all there, rarely seen. They stood in front of the desk and surrounded Wu Weian.

The elderly steward Yuan whispered, "Young Master, I've just reorganized the prescription. Take a look. We already have the first 20 ingredients. We can ask our brothers in Qingzhou to help pick the 21st, 22nd, and 23rd herbs in Qingshan. These three herbs are traditionally grown in Qingshan. We can ask our brothers in Niujia Village to help pick the 24th and 25th herbs in Niubei Mountain..."

Wu Weian sat leisurely in his seat without saying a word.

Hearing Ji Yunxi come in, he glanced at her.

Ji Yunxi didn't say anything.

She went to the table and sat down.

Baofu held a box of things in his hands and put it aside, then busied himself pouring tea for Ji Yunxi.

Ji Yunxi slowly finished her second cup of tea and was about to drink the third when Steward Yuan finally told her about the 66th flavor. He swallowed hard, his face full of worry and wrinkles. "Sir, we probably need to go there in person to get this Fire Feather Bird Tail Flower."

Poison Lady said, "The Fire Feather Bird Tail flower loses its medicinal properties two hours after it falls. We need to bring the other 71 herbs and refine them as soon as we pick them. Furthermore, the Fire Feather Bird Tail flower grows in dangerous places and is not easy to harvest."

Ji Yunxi lowered her eyes and looked at Wu Weian calmly without interrupting.

Wu Wei'an's voice rang out, and he sighed slightly: "This is a bit of a waste of time and money."

The people he arranged were not there to collect herbs. Once they collected the herbs, their whereabouts might be revealed, and it would be troublesome to use them later.

Moreover, not to mention the time it takes to deliver them from all over the place, the money needed for the journey is also not a small amount.

Manager Yuan also fell silent.

The gambling houses and cloth shops have been profitable recently, but after the money was spent everywhere, there is nothing left.

The young master calculated the money he owed a few days ago and found that he still had to pay back the money owed to his brothers in seven cities, sixteen counties, and thirty-three townships.

Not only that, the brothers are always taking action and will continue to generate money.

Manager Yuan sighed.

He subconsciously glanced at Ji Yunxi and even wanted to ask the young master to ask the lady for some money.

But he thought about it and realized that it was not about money.

Yuan Guanshi could still transfer the money for transporting the medicinal materials from other places.

The most difficult part about this is manpower.

We need brothers from all over the place to help find and collect herbs. Those herbs are difficult to collect and may even be life-threatening. They cannot be bought with money.

"Forget it, this is the only way." Wu Weian handed the prepared prescription back, "You did a good job, I'll follow your arrangement. As for the Fire Feather Bird Tail Flower, I'll find a way."

Ji Yunxi put down the teacup and looked at Wu Weian again.

His expression was calm, but Ji Yunxi could see that he was heartbroken.

She admired it for a while longer before she stood up and walked towards them with the box in her arms.

Wu Weian and the other four people including Manager Yuan subconsciously looked at her with puzzled expressions.

Generally speaking, when they are talking about things, the wife never interrupts them, and everyone keeps to themselves.

What does Madam want to do this time?

Wu Weian subconsciously looked at the box in her hand.

Could it be money inside? To subsidize his search for medicine?

But it was not until the box was opened that Wu Weian realized that he had guessed wrong.

There are medicinal herbs inside.

The medicinal materials are sealed in special small boxes.

Poison Lady swallowed subconsciously, and her eyes were fixed on it and she couldn't move them away.

Only she knows best what this box of medicinal herbs means.

Ji Yunxi said calmly, "There are more than a dozen more on the way." She looked at Wu Weian, "Except for the Fire Feather Bird Tail Flower, they are all here."

He subconsciously asked, "How did you get it?"

Ji Yunxi raised an eyebrow: "? Bought it?" That's not nonsense, what else? She doesn't know how to pick herbs.

Manager Yuan was shocked. He was usually so steady that he lost his composure for a moment: "Can these be bought?"

Ji Yunxi hummed.

Looking at her bright and charming face with a calm expression, Wu Weian's heart skipped a beat.

Chapter 67 What are you doing?

Wu Wei'an looked at Ji Yunxi deeply and said to the others, "Retreat."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuezhu turned around and left without hesitation.

He was just waiting for the young master to say this, and it took him more than an hour to finish dyeing the cloth.

As for the golden toad poison in the young master, isn't that from the poisonous lady?

Therefore, Xuezhu didn't quite understand why Manager Yuan called him from the cloth shop and asked him to listen in on such a matter for so long.

It's none of his business.

The young master is poisoned by the Gu, but even if you call him, he can't cure it.
