When the two drove the rented ox cart to the town, they saw the villagers in the distance. The villagers thought it was Doctor Lu and his son, Lu Pingan, sitting in the ox cart. After all, who would have thought that it was Bai Zhi, who was sitting next to Doctor Lu?

Originally, the ointment was expected to be delivered after 7 days, but they delivered the goods within 4 days. The Shopkeeper of Baicaotang didn’t know what to do.

The Shopkeeper said to Doctor Lu: “Because they were medicines for the soldiers, I promised them that we will deliver the medicines as soon as possible, but I also said that it will take at least 7 days. So they promised to come and pick up the goods after 7 days. Who knows that you will deliver them so soon?”

Bai Zhi smiled and asked, “Are they coming here from the barracks to collect the goods?”

The Shopkeeper nodded: “Of course, where else will they come from? Before, they also asked us our Baicaotang to deliver goods to them, but you know, now the war is tight, I would rather be short in money than to deliver goods in there.”

Bai Zhi was waiting for that sentence, so she immediately patted her chest and said, “It isn’t easy, right? Then I’ll deliver these goods for you. You only need to prepare your Baicaotang carriage. It will also save us effort to lift the medicine here and there. Besides, our town is not far from the border. If I go now and rush to go there, I’m sure I’ll be there before night fell.”

The Shopkeeper was puzzled. Other people will avoid going to that place as much as possible, but she volunteered herself. There must be something going on!

Doctor Lu’s face drastically changed. He didn’t expect Bai Zhi to make such a request, so he busily said: “Don’t talk nonsense, how can you go to that kind of place?”

Bai Zhi said, “Lu Dafu, you know, Hu Feng went there. I’ve never been at ease since then. I always wanted to find a way to see him. Now that I can go in there, I will not waste such an opportunity.”

Hearing her mentioning Hu Feng, Doctor Lu understood that she and Hu Feng might have decided to get married. He also thinks that they were a good match. Unfortunately, Hu Feng went to the battlefield. It’s only normal for her to worry whether he can come back alive.

After hearing their words, the Shopkeeper understood some of it, so he asked, “So, you want to go there to find someone?”

Bai Zhi nodded: “Yes, my brother was recruited a few days ago, and there has been no news. I originally planned to go there. This opportunity is just right on time, it’s killing two birds with one stone, isn’t it?”

The Shopkeeper was shocked. So she was originally looking for her brother. The Shopkeeper nodded his head with a smile: “I see, that is the case, you can rest a.s.sured, I’m sure nothing happened to your brother. But you are so thin, can you drive?”

Bai Zhi laughed: “Shopkeeper, you must be joking, do you need meat in the body to drive a cart?”

The Shopkeeper also laughed: “That 's right, you can do it. I believe you. After all, I have known Lu Dafu for many years and I trust him. I also trust the people he brings.”

The matter was settled. The Shopkeeper paid Doctor Lu all the money that the army gave. Doctor Lu immediately returned 10% of the sales. The Shopkeeper couldn’t close his mouth. He didn’t expect that he could earn money just by using his mouth. It’s worth selling medicine.

The Shopkeeper pulled out all the ointment in the ox cart and put them to the car they were using. Bai Zhi pulled Doctor Lu on the side: “Lu Dafu, you go back to the village and say to my Niang that I will deliver medicine, but not in the barracks, so she doesn’t have to worry. You can also give my share to my Niang.”

Doctor Lu was worried: “Can you really do this alone?”
