Chapter 283: Believe
Doctor," Jiang Nuan looked stunned, "If it weren't for the stakes, I wouldn't have said anything about alcohol." People in the world chase good wine, but forget how much food is consumed for a liter of wine, and making wine in large quantities will inevitably cause the price of food to rise, and it is not known how many people will go hungry at that time. ”
Originally, she thought that in a few years, she would be able to grow high-yield food, and when no one was hungry, she would take it out just right.
Now I find that some things can't be delayed.
The sooner alcohol is used, the sooner it can play its role, and more lives can be saved.
In fact, she wanted to hand it over directly to the imperial court, not in exchange for benefits and status, but only the imperial court could promote it on a large scale.
It's a pity that the Huang family is not powerful enough, and even if it is handed over to the imperial court, it cannot guarantee that the desired result will be achieved.
It is more likely that alcohol became an open secret, exploited by certain aristocratic classes, and then profited for themselves.
At that time, it will still affect the people.
It is still very risky to say the prescription now, but, inexplicably, Jiang Nuan is willing to believe the white-haired doctor in front of him.
Perhaps, because the old man is always slow and half-beat, slow and leisurely, time has retained his footsteps; It may also be because his plain eyes are like experiencing the waves of waves, and finally return to ordinary tranquility.
Silence, a long silence.
"Mrs. Jiang," in the end, the old doctor bowed slightly and said solemnly, "The old man agreed to this condition." ”
Writing out the recipe for distilling alcohol and handing it to the old doctor, Jiang Nuan took a deep breath, and then, regardless of the old doctor's retention, he resolutely left.
"Master," the junior apprentice looked curiously at the old doctor standing at the threshold, "everyone is gone, why haven't you entered the house yet?" ”
It was the first time he had seen his master attach so much importance to a person, usually those nobles, and the master also loved to ignore them, and only did his duty as a doctor.
"You don't understand," the old doctor stroked his beard slowly, "Jiang Niangzi can't be too respectful of such a strange woman." ”
For the first time in his life, he met this kind of woman: she had both a world-wide outlook and a compassionate mind.
If it weren't for today's incident, he wouldn't have believed that there would be such a woman, not to look down on people, but to be confined to the inner house, and to lack knowledge.
With that, the doctor returned to his study.
A moment later, a white carrier pigeon slowly flew north.
Huang Xiaosan has always dared to do and speak, but he was in the pharmacy, and he didn't dare to breathe.
I don't know why, it's obviously his own mother, but it makes him feel strange.
And the doctor, I didn't see him lose his temper, but it made him feel an inexplicable oppression.
The three of them were in the same room, and he inexplicably felt that he was left in another world.
After coming out, he couldn't help but have a stomach full of questions, "Mother, alcohol is really so magical?" ”
"It's not magical, but it's of great medical value."
After a pause, Jiang Nuan added, "The commercial value is also very large!" ”
"Business value?" Huang Xiaosan asked tentatively, "Can you make a lot of money?" ”
"Yes!" Jiang Nuan nodded slowly, "The recipe just sent out is enough to make our family the richest man in southern Henan." ”
The tobacco and alcohol industry has been a profiteering industry since ancient times.
"Henan...... Richest? Huang Xiaosan's breath was short, "Mother, are you sure you are talking about the richest man in southern Henan and not the richest man in Ping'an County?" ”
Henan, that's the city!
