Without waiting for Wang Yuanbao's answer, Li Sixu continued: "Because the fire-huan cloth has antiseptic, acid-proof, and heat-resistant effects, wrapping the corpse for burial can prevent the body from rotting. This is a business opportunity."
"What's more, the more the fire-huan cloth is burned, the cleaner it will look like new. It can prevent fires and retardant. Since most houses in the Tang Dynasty are built with wood, the fire-huan cloth can be made into fire-proof clothing and used in special times."
Li Sixu pointed out: "Why can't Huohuan cloth be used as ordinary fabrics to make clothes? Because Huohuan cloth is poisonous, and long-term exposure will cause malignant swelling and sores in the body, resulting in death."
"Sisi identified the material of Huo Huanbu and consulted a large number of classics to know the secret and origin of Huo Huanbu."
So Huo Huan Bu is still poisonous?
Wang Yuanbao couldn't help but tremble when he thought that he originally wanted to use the Huohuan cloth as a treasure to make clothes for His Majesty. He felt like he was looking for death.
If this kind of cloth is used to wrap the dead to protect the body from decay, it is really a way to make money.
Wang Yuanbao became interested, but frowned and said: "Princess, this kind of cloth is indeed extremely difficult to find. The common people have asked the merchants from the Western Regions. The output of this kind of cloth is very low in their dynasty. I heard that in their dynasty, there is a kind of cloth near the volcano. Fire rats, if water is poured on them, the rats will not live long. Only by taking the hair of the fire rats and spinning them into cloth can we make fire-huan cloth."
"If Huohuan cloth is really made from the hair of fire rats, and the yield is extremely low, then there will be no clue that this is a way to make money."
Li Sixu revealed the secret of Huohuanbu: "In fact, Huohuanbu is obtained by washing minerals. The silk left after the minerals are pounded and washed can be used to weave cloth. This mineral is not only found in the Western Regions. Sir, you can send someone to look for it at the boundary of Yazhou in Jiannan Road."
"If sir finds this kind of ore that can be used to make fire-huan cloth in Yazhou, Jiannan Province, Sisi wants him to use 20% of the sales of fire-huan cloth to develop medicine and build a hospital relief center."
Li Sixu looked at him with a smile: "What do you think, sir?"
Wonderful!
If so, Wang Yuanbao can not only do good deeds and accumulate virtue, but also become famous.
If your reputation reaches His Majesty, will you be commended by the court, right?
It's more likely that he only needs to offer 20% of the money from selling fire-huan cloth, and the little princess can justifiably introduce him to the emperor.
With the emperor as your biggest backer, you won’t be guilty of harboring a treasure!
What Wang Yuanbao saw was not only the benefits brought by selling Huohuan cloth, but also the secret that could preserve the Wang family's wealth.
He bowed deeply to Li Sixu: "The little princess's great kindness to the common people will never be repaid by the common people."
"The common people will follow what the princess said and send people to Jiannan Dao Yazhou to look for ore that can be used to make fire cloth."
"Then it depends on what you do, sir!"
Li Sixu smiled sweetly and warned: "Proceed in secret."
Wang Yuanbao felt that he and the princess had shared many times of adversity and seemed to have become closer to each other invisibly.
He responded hurriedly: "The common people know!"
After listening to the conversation between his junior sister and Wang Yuanbao, Wang Ziqing realized that Huo Huanbu was hiding murderous intentions. Those who were fighting for power wanted to use Wang Yuanbao to drag his junior sister into the situation.
Fortunately, the junior sister was not fooled and saw through Huo Huanbu's secret.
Otherwise, even if the master and he try their best, they may not be able to save the little junior sister this time.
Fortunately, everything is fine.
Wang Ziqing was glad that Li Sixu had seen through the mystery behind Huo Huanbu, but he was also shocked that the junior sister had such profound and broad knowledge in addition to her skillful acupuncture skills.
His junior sister is so mysterious!
It's also because he has experienced a lot, and his junior sister has surprised him again and again, and he has become accustomed to it.
Wang Ziqing felt that everything was unimportant and did not want to explore the secret behind it. He only knew that the little girl in front of him who smiled sweetly and asked him for candied fruit was his junior sister.
This is the person he wants to pamper and protect.
After meeting Wang Yuanbao, Wang Ziqing took Li Sixu into Song Qing Medicine Store in Dongshi.
Most of the medicines sold by Song Qing's medicine stores are high-quality and low-priced. Herbal medicine collectors from all over the world know that Song Qing is a kind person and the prices for medicinal materials are very fair, so they are willing to send medicinal materials to medicine shops.
When Li Sixu followed Wang Ziqing out of the carriage, she saw a long queue at the door of the medicine store, and those in the queue were holding bowls in their hands.
"Brother, what are they doing?"
"Buy medicine!"
Wang Ziqing and Li Sixu explained: "The reason why the Song and Qing medicine shops made a big fuss in Chang'an City was because Song Qing was very knowledgeable about prescription medicines. He would brew some disease-preventing medicinal materials based on which diseases were most common in each season."
"For example, if it is easy to catch a cold in autumn and winter, he will boil some decoction to keep the cold away. If the poor people catch the cold, they can drink a bowl of the medicine to cure the disease. It can also play a preventive role for those who are not sick."
Wang Ziqing told Li Sixu that it must be because of the recent frequent outbreak of dysentery in Chang'an City. Song Qing boiled a preventive medicine for intestinal diarrhea, and the door of the medicine store was full of people.
Li Sixu smelled the medicinal smell at the door. With her ability to identify medicinal materials, she could tell that the medicinal smell wafting out seemed to be added with licorice, woody incense, peony, etc., as well as honeysuckle, burnet root, paeonol bark, etc. that could clear away heat and cool blood. .
When she followed Wang Ziqing into the door, she saw a large pot set up in the yard, with boiling medicinal materials boiling in the pot.
Wang Ziqing felt that Song Qing had a benevolent attitude as a doctor, so he also donated prescription medicines to his pharmacy and was familiar with Song Qing.
Seeing him coming, Song Qing, who was instructing the doctor to prepare the medicine, hurriedly came over to greet him: "How come Mr. Wang has time to come to Xiaoke's medicine shop today?"
"Bring my junior sister here to find medicine."
Wang Ziqing asked him: "Have you recently purchased Artemisia annua in your pharmacy? My junior sister wants to find some Artemisia annua to use as medicine for Master Yao."
Junior sister?
Didn’t Wang Ziqing learn from the Imperial Physician Zheng?
Then isn't his junior sister...
Song Qing was startled and raised his hand to Li Sixu: "There is no ready-made Qinghao shop, but a nearby herb collector just came back from the suburbs of Beijing yesterday. He will come to deliver herbs every two days. I will send someone Go and urge him and ask him if he has picked fresh artemisia annua."
Li Sixu only had to look at the people queuing up outside to buy the decoction and see Song Qing personally supervising the doctor to prepare the medicine, and she knew that Song Qing was extremely attentive.
When diseases were common, his measures to prevent diseases by making decoctions also greatly eased the pressure on the Imperial Medical Office and Beitian Clinic.
Moreover, most of the people queuing up were wearing simple clothes. From this, it can be inferred that the price of the medicine he sold was not high.
Li Sixu felt that there were many strange people among the people, so she raised her hand to him: "There is Mr. Lao Song."
This sound of sir and the little princess's words and deeds made Song Qing panic.
He almost wondered if the person in front of him was the one who was rumored to be studying the vaccination technique with Wang Tao to benefit the people?
However, in addition to accepting Wang Ziqing as his disciple, Sun Yizheng also only accepted the tenth princess as his initial disciple.
Could it be that there is someone else who Wang Ziqing calls junior sister?
After Song Qing sent the medicine shop boy to urge the medicine, he took Li Sixu and Wang Ziqing into his medicine shop.
