Besides searching for medicinal herbs, they would also buy food and store it in the warehouse, just so they could eat it when they returned to the modern world.
After finding the medicinal herbs, the group returned to the village. They needed Doctor Liu and Wenwu to help them make the herbs into pills for future use, since they wouldn't be able to use them if they weren't made into pills.
Upon entering the village, they received a warm welcome. The Lin family actually had a residence in the capital, but the Lin clan members were used to Peach Blossom Village, so they returned to the village after the emperor's wedding.
Although they were now relatives of the emperor, their lives remained unchanged; they continued to work in the workshops. However, the children who were eligible to attend academies had been sent to the capital to study there.
"Sisters-in-law, what brings you back? How have you been these past two years?" Elder Lin asked as soon as he saw them from afar.
The Emperor sent them a letter when their two sisters-in-law went out to play, so they naturally knew about it.
An Shuyi nodded, "It's fine. Is everything alright in the village?"
"fine."
"That's good. In four days, our workshop will distribute the profits. I'll tell you something else then." Three days is enough time for Doctor Liu to make the medicine.
He took several baskets from the carriage and said to Doctor Liu beside him, "Brother Liu, we've dug up a lot of medicinal herbs this time. We'd appreciate it if you could help us make them into pills. As for what kind of medicine to make, here's the list."
Doctor Liu took the herbs, saying, "There are so many! I'll be busy for a long time." He hadn't seen so many good medicinal herbs in a long time.
An Shuyi nodded, "We need it urgently, so please make it in three days, Brother Liu, and have your apprentices help out. Thank you for your help."
"Since you're in such a hurry, I'll hurry up and make sure it's done in three days."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Liu."
Give the remaining poisonous plants and snakes to Wenwu so he can make poison.
The village was as lively as ever during dinner time, with everyone gathered around the table to eat and chat about interesting things.
For the past three days, An Shuyi and the others haven't gone anywhere. Instead, they've spent more time with their families, chatting and working in the workshop. But time always passes.
On the fourth day, Doctor Liu and Wenwu delivered medicine, all packed in wooden boxes with writing on them.
In the afternoon, a group of people came to the village. Seeing them, An Shuyi smiled and told the woman who was cooking to cook more and make it better tonight.
"Zhen'er, didn't I tell you not to come? There are so many things to do in the court, and you all came back too. What will happen to the court? And you, instead of guarding your own borders, you ran back here!"
Besides Yan Zhen, the Empress, Wen Liu and others also returned, as did Wen Shi and the others, even the children.
"I haven't told them yet. Grandma, you can tell them yourself later. As for me, Grandma, don't worry about the affairs of the court. I'll send all those ministers out to inspect the people," Yan Zhen said.
This was a plan he had been thinking of for a long time, so that he wouldn't have to attend court and the ministers wouldn't know where he was going.
"Don't worry, Mother. Those barbarians and people from beyond the Great Wall won't dare to invade. We've come to see you too," Wen Shan said.
He didn't know what was going on, but the emperor ordered him to return to the village and he had to be there in three days, so he hurriedly came back and met Wen Shi, Da Niu and others on the way.
An Shuyi nodded, "That's a good idea. It's fine to come back. Get some rest, I'll talk about it tonight."
The others were somewhat confused by what they were saying, but Wen Liu and a few others could guess what it meant, after all, they had been officials for many years.
The interest would be distributed in the evening, so dinner was served very early, starting at four o'clock. Despite the Emperor's presence, everyone was quite talkative.
After finishing their meal, everyone packed up their things and started dividing them up. They had done this before, but unlike before, An Shuyi and Xia Hua were there.
Wen Yi was the first to start, taking out three account books. There were five chests of silver in each book, which gives you an idea of how much the village could earn in a day.
Since Yan Zhen became emperor, the workshop's business has improved dozens of times, with people coming from all over to pick up goods.
After Wen Yi finished distributing the silver, it was Wen Qing's turn. He also received several boxes of silver. After all the silver was distributed, An Shuyi and Xia Hua had more than twenty boxes of silver in the corner, and each of them received more than ten boxes.
An Shuyi stood up. "I have two things to say today. First, all the profits from the village workshops that belong to me and Huahua will go to Yanzhen. The same goes for the profits from the other side; let him take them away."
"Grandma, I..." Yan Zhen wanted to say something, but An Shuyi told him not to, and continued, "Take those account books to Yan Zhen to look at. Don't say why he won't give them to you, because he has to support a country."
“You earn quite a bit each month, and this is all given to him by us. After all, he needs a lot of money. Also, there are two boxes in our house, filled with land deeds and house deeds. These are all for you.”
“These are all things we’ve bought over the years. We have them in every prefecture and even two shops in the capital. Here are the recipes. You can take one out every few years, and I guarantee your business will be booming.”
"We've also put those servants' indentures in the box. There's another small box with writing on it, which is for Ruohua. We'll give it to your aunt later." Besides what she mentioned, there were also many pills, poisons, and various prescriptions.
Anyway, it's just buying it for him, it only costs some money. Besides that, she also left two bombs, and she had already written down how to use them.
The original plan was to have Mu Tou arrange for someone to send them to the palace after they left, but since he came here, I'll tell him in advance.
Yan Zhen nodded, "Thank you, Grandma." He was utterly unworthy of such consideration from them.
We hired private tutors to teach him from a young age, and took him out to play every now and then. While playing, we didn't forget to teach him. Even at his age, he still had to lead troops into battle. In the end, it was all for his sake.
Village Chief Lin stood up. "Sister-in-law, if we give it to the Emperor, what will you and Aunt Xia use?"
With so much stuff, even though the villagers wouldn't covet it, if it were all given to the Emperor, there would be nothing left. Could it be that the women have some other ideas?
After asking him to sit down, An Shuyi said, "That's the first thing. The second thing is that we're leaving, and we won't need the money."
After these words were spoken, the room fell silent, and no one spoke for a long time.
"Lin Anshi, Li Xiashi, is it because of that boy in the village, or because of these two young masters?" the clan chief said from the side.
Previously, they hadn't thought much of it because the two young masters were friends of Lin Anshi and Li Xiashi, but they only found out after going to the capital.
But they didn't ask, acting as if they knew nothing about it. If they had known they would leave, he would have had Little Wood arrange their marriage.
