I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

The Crisis of Two People Dying!

Although there was not much money left, they still needed some living expenses.

The next morning, Lu Ze and Lin Suisui packed up and entered the city. There were many shops in the city. Although it was still early, the narrow street was already bustling with people.

Lin Suisui and Lu Ze went to the pharmacy first.

Along the way, Lin Suisui more or less understood the distribution of shops in the city. The most common ones were naturally inns and restaurants, followed by cloth embroidery, and then porcelain and tea shops.

As for pharmacies, there were a few in the city, but compared to the other businesses, this place seemed a little deserted.

But it wasn’t surprising.

Although the northern region was a place where precious herbs like ginseng and deer antler were produced, it was a pity that this place was located at the border and there were very few people because of the constant war. In addition, most of these refugees who had migrated from the mainland didn’t know how to obtain these herbs, so more of these herbs had to be transported from Korea and other countries further north.

Due to the uniqueness of the herbs, they usually followed the route of the caravan’s escort and were rarely used for such transactions.

Therefore, it was not surprising that there were only a few pharmacies in the city.

Lin Suisui was not in a hurry. After shopping around these pharmacies, she returned to the Wang family’s pharmacy, which she had been to before. She politely stopped a waiter who had received them previously and asked in a low voice, “May I ask if you accept medicinal herbs?”

Musk was priceless. In addition to being able to sell it to the pharmacy, she could also ask many spice shops in the city. She looked for the pharmacy first because she was a doctor and was biased towards them.

Although the shop clerk saw that the two people in front of him were dressed simply, he didn’t show any contempt for them. He only paused for a moment and said bluntly, “Yes. I wonder what herbs you want to sell?!”

“Musk.”

Lin Suisui’s voice was not loud, but it still attracted the attention of the shopkeeper not far away. When he came over and heard that the two people in front of him wanted to sell musk, his eyes immediately lit up. He took a few steps over and squeezed the waiter, who was about to reply, to the side. He looked at the young lady in front of him eagerly. “Are you talking about musk?!”

“Yes.” Since they were going to do business, Lin Suisui was very straightforward. She turned around and gestured for Lu Ze to take out the two musks from the basket and place them on the table for the shopkeeper to see.

These two musks were quite valuable. The eagerness in the shopkeeper’s eyes immediately rose to another level.

“How much do you plan to sell it for?” Although he wanted it badly, the shopkeeper tried his best to restrain himself and conceal his desire.

He did so in case the other party saw through it and took the opportunity to increase the price!

“Of course it’s the market price.” Lin Suisui could see the eagerness in the shopkeeper’s eyes at a glance. As a doctor, she naturally knew the value of these two herbs. Many medical prescriptions needed these herbs!

If not for the fact that she was short of money, she would be a little reluctant to sell the musks.

The shopkeeper pondered for a moment before slowly raising his hand and showing Lin Suisui his palm. He flipped both sides before saying, “I wonder if you can accept this number.”

“You’re indeed a fair person.” Lin Suisui smiled. This shopkeeper’s gesture were actually a bargaining gesture that many doctors understood. In other words, this shopkeeper was negotiating with her as a form of probing.

Doctors were in awe of many precious herbs that could save lives. Therefore, they rarely spoke about the price directly. Over time, they used this gesture to replace it.

If she were an ordinary person and happened to obtain these herbs, she would probably think that the shopkeeper’s gesture only meant 50 taels of silver.

However, she knew very well that this gesture meant a thousand taels.

“It’s my blessing that you’re willing to part with it.” Seeing that Lin Suisui was an in the know, the shopkeeper gave up on the idea of getting a bargain. He bowed obediently to Lin Suisui and asked her and Lu Ze to wait a moment. They had to clean up the musk first before coming over to pay her.

While waiting, Lin Suisui had time to stroll around the pharmacy. She was not too interested in anything else, but when she saw the two sets of tools stacked together on the wall rack, she was interested.

It was a set of thirteen knives of different sizes and a set of silver needles for acupuncture.

The needles were average, but it was mainly the set of knives that interested her. The smallest blade was as thin as a cicada’s wing, and the largest was extremely sharp. It was obvious that it was made by an expert!

She had a set of these knives before. They were used to clean wounds and treat injuries. To a doctor, this set was definitely the best assistant!

However, the price…

“This is one of the knives that Master Liu Yi made previously. It originally belonged to Doctor Du, but something happened to his family last year, so he sold this knife to our shopkeeper for money.”

Seeing that Lin Suisui was interested in this set of knives, the clerk introduced them to her.

When she heard that it was a knife made by Master Liu Yi, Lin Suisui felt even more interested. After all, the knife she used previously was also made by this master!

Other than being too expensive, it had almost no shortcomings!

So…

Lin Suisui raised her hand to cover her chest. For the first time, she felt that poverty was unbearable.

However, before she could delve deeper into her emotions, her thoughts were interrupted by a flurry of footsteps. She turned around and saw a group of panicked maidservants and old women surrounding a burly old woman as they squeezed in through the door. When the leader of the maidservants saw the shopkeeper, she came over and knelt in front of him. “Please help save my girl. She, she just fell… She’s having a miscarriage. Please, save our girl. She’s bleeding so much…”

The sudden chaos in the hall didn’t affect Lin Suisui’s observation and judgment. She immediately saw the woman lying on the burly woman. She was already unconscious, and the blood on the hem of her dress reflected the crisis of the current situation.

However, even if he knew the situation was dire, the shopkeeper, who was grabbed by this girl, was still helpless. “I’m not a doctor! I-I can’t do anything about it!”

There was indeed a doctor in the pharmacy, but he could only treat simple headaches and fevers. The current situtation might cost two lives… Who dared to get involved?!
