Yun Wanwan was also afraid of the heat and was prone to heatstroke in the summer. To prevent any delays to her work, she consulted a doctor she knew at the hospital and obtained these effective herbal tea recipes. After drinking them for a whole summer, Yun Wanwan was completely free of heatstroke.
After Yun Wanwan finished writing the prescription, she went to the tents of the soldiers who had suffered from heatstroke, took out the fans she had made herself, and asked people to fan them. Some wind is better than no wind, at least it can quench the thirst of the soldiers by looking at the plum.
Yun Wanwan also had the military doctors prepare diarrhea-treating medicine. Yun Wanwan was worried the soldiers wouldn't be used to the food, and the unbearable summer heat would easily trigger diarrhea. Therefore, they had to prepare it in advance so they wouldn't be rushed when symptoms appeared.
With Yun Wanwan around, the soldiers' illness was quickly brought under control, eliminating the need for Rong Chengxuan to worry. However, Yun Wanwan was lucky. If she hadn't suffered from heatstroke frequently in modern times and taken care of herself, which gave her so much experience, she wouldn't have been able to help much.
Everything went smoothly on Yun Wanwan's side, but there was still no progress on Rong Chengxuan's side. In Daxing City, the people still did not cooperate with Beichen's management, but after what happened this morning, they did not make trouble and did not use anything else to threaten Rong Chengxuan.
After settling down in Daxing City, they resumed their normal life and did not cause any more trouble to Rong Chengxuan. However, they expressed their resistance to Beichen in another way. They still believed that they were people of the Western Zhou Dynasty, not Beichen.
For example - the spices in the city are only sold to people from Xizhou, the facial cream is only sold to people from Xizhou, and the food, water and everything else are only bought to people from Xizhou. We can't and dare not stop you people from Beichen from entering our store, but the things are mine, and I have the right to choose whether to sell them to you.
Spices and creams were fine, as women were more in demand for them. What bothered Rong Chengxuan the most was that they wouldn't even sell them food or water. If they took it by force, that would completely prove they were bandits. If they didn't, reasoning with them wouldn't make any sense.
The most important thing is that forced buying or selling will not work. After they take the money, they can bite you back. In short, they have a hundred ways and methods to make you unhappy.
But there are still many ways. It is impossible that Rong Chengxuan's army will starve to death just because they refuse to sell things to him, right? This is definitely impossible. All the solutions are invented by people.
Since Daxing City was blocked, Rong Chengxuan would dispatch 300 soldiers to bring food from Shaping City daily. As for water, Rong Chengxuan would have the soldiers follow the people of Daxing City wherever they went to fetch water. After all, the water belonged to everyone, and it wasn't specifically designated as belonging to anyone. Fetching water wasn't something Rong Chengxuan's army could control.
Yun Wanwan had just left the prefectural government office out of a whim today, wanting to take a good stroll around Daxing City. She happened to see a shop selling spices and facial creams, so she decided to go in and take a look and buy some.
Yun Wanwan knew that the so-called facial cream was just like modern sunscreen, which was used to protect against ultraviolet rays. Generally, in the desert, some rich young ladies who were afraid of getting tanned would use these facial creams to protect themselves from the sun.
Yun Wanwan had a reason for wanting to buy these facial creams. Not only was the weather in the desert extremely hot, but there was also too much sunlight. Many soldiers' faces began to break out, and some had even been sunburned.
At this time, Yun Wanwan thought of modern sunscreen. Yun Wanwan could naturally make this thing, but if she really waited for it to be made, she didn't know how much time would be wasted.
Later, Yun Wanwan heard that the people of the Western Zhou Dynasty had developed a facial cream specifically for sun protection, which was very effective. Of course, Western Zhou men didn't use that kind of thing; it was sold to women. Western Zhou men believed that the darker they were, the more handsome they were, much like modern foreigners' preference for tanning.
Yun Wanwan thought that if she could buy more and distribute them to Beichen's soldiers, it would probably alleviate some of their UV burn symptoms. While she could do it, it would be time-consuming. More importantly, Yun Wanwan wanted to see if the Western Zhou people's own invention was more effective, or if her modern-day version was better.
With this idea in mind, Yun Wanwan took A Kui out and randomly found a shop selling spice creams in Daxing City. Unfortunately, they ran into Ding Zi as soon as they entered the door.
Yun Wanwan had appeared with Rong Chengxuan before, and just based on her appearance and attire, no one could mistake her for someone from Beichen. One could tell at a glance that she was from Beichen.
The businessmen of the Western Zhou Dynasty had already agreed that they could do business, but they could not sell to the people of Beichen. They had to be united in dealing with external forces. No matter how much Yun Wanwan tried to persuade them, they simply refused to sell anything to the people of Beichen.
They themselves said, "Unless you Beichen people come to rob us! Otherwise, we don't think it's possible for us to sell things to you on our own initiative. But if you really come to rob us, it would be like you robbing the cities of the Western Zhou Dynasty. What's the difference between you and bandits? So in the final analysis, you Beichen people are still bandits."
Ah Kui was so angry that she laughed. Perhaps she really didn't expect that there were such weirdos in the world. "Since you all think Beichen is a robber, then even if we don't rob your shop today, we can't get rid of the robber title. In other words, even if we do nothing, we can't get rid of the robber title on our heads. So, we might as well just rob you!"
Ge Zichen, who had come along, was also furious and chimed in, "How ridiculous! Your own Western Zhou army can't defend their own city. It's their own fault for being incompetent. You civilians should just live your lives peacefully. Why are you causing all this trouble?"
"Our prince has been very merciful. Even though you made such a fuss yesterday, our army didn't massacre the city. We've already spared your lives. Can you please restrain yourself a little? Whoever opens his mouth and closes his mouth is a robber."
"Why are you guys from the Western Zhou Dynasty so precious? You really don't even take a piss to look at your own land and see what it looks like. You wouldn't even want a place like this with flying dirt all over it for free."
Seeing that Ge Zichen and A Kui were ruthless and both carried swords, the people of Western Zhou knew that although A Kui was a woman, she must be very skilled in swordsmanship. No matter what, she had martial arts skills. If they really fought, they would definitely not be able to beat them, and they would definitely be the ones to suffer in the end.
