Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 7
Chapter 007 Medicinal Ingredients Intercepted
After the group of people left, everyone entered the Yong Ci Hall. The injured staff dressed their wounds slightly and then stood under the hall, looking at Liu Shun and Bai Junzhuo.
Liu Shun showed Bai Junzhuo the ledger of the medicinal ingredients business for the past six months. She roughly flipped through a few pages before frowning deeply.
The losses of the Bai Clan over the past six months were even more severe than they had shown. The money they owed those employees was simply impossible to pay, and they also owed a large sum of money to several other merchants in Luoyang City who had a cooperative relationship with them. If nothing unexpected happened, those merchants would come to collect debts in a few days.
“Miss, what should we do next?” Someone below asked.
Bai Junzhuo wanted to shake his head to show that he didn’t know what to do, but he raised his head to see everyone’s expectant eyes and clenched his fists tightly.
There was a burst of silence in the Medicine Hall, but one could occasionally hear some people sighing helplessly.
When Bai Jun Zhuo saw everyone like this, his heart felt very uncomfortable, but she had no choice.
“Right!” Liu Shun patted his head and suddenly said, “Miss, I remember that there was an epidemic in a small city near Tiger Prison Pass a month ago. The emperor ordered Lord Secretariat Tea to purchase all the medicinal ingredients, and Lord Secretariat handed them all over to Miracle Doctor Bai. By now, these medicinal ingredients should be on their way to Luoyang within a day or two.”
Bai Junzhuo didn’t know anything about this matter before. Hearing Liu Shun’s words, she also had hope in her heart. When this batch of medicinal ingredients arrived, she could give it to Lord Secretary Cha Jinzhi to resolve the urgent matter. As for the future, she could think of a way.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Liu Shun gave them some instructions and ordered them to continue. Then, he said to Bai Junzhuo, “Young miss, your injuries are not healed yet. Go back and rest first. I will be with the Medicine Hall.”
Bai Junzhuo was indeed dizzy at this moment. He nodded and returned to the White House with Lizi.
As soon as he returned to his courtyard, Xing Zi rushed over with red eyes and helped Bai Junzhuo say, “Miss, where have you been? This servant can’t find you anywhere after cooking the medicine. I’m so anxious …”
Bai Junzhuo smiled and patted her head. Riko took her words and said, “Isn’t it the staff of the Medicine Hall? Those heartless people who came to throw stones at the Bai Clan when they were in trouble are really hateful! Fortunately, Young Miss is powerful. She was stunned by those people when she got there. Otherwise, the Medicine Hall would really be burned by them!”
‘”That’s right, that’s right.” Hearing that, Xingzi’s face was filled with resentment. “They have the ability to bully Miss. Second Master and Madam even took the money and ran away, but they didn’t chase after them! I’m so angry!”
“That’s right. In the end, Madam is really not a good person. She used to like to bully Miss and deduct her monthly money, but now she has caused Miss to suffer so badly. Hmph, wait for Old Lady to come back …”
Riko suddenly stopped and looked at Bai Junzhuo worriedly. Apricot glared at Riko with some reproach, then looked at Bai Junzhuo and cautiously shouted, “Miss.”
Just like how Bai Junzhuo didn’t care too much about Miracle Doctor Bai’s death, he didn’t have much affection for the grandmother who had gone to the temple to see the Bai Clan’s grandson and hadn’t heard from him for half a year, so he smiled indifferently.
Seeing that there was indeed no sadness on her face, Xing Zi heaved a sigh of relief. “Miss, the medicine is still hot on the stove. This servant will go get it for you.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded. Xingzi went over to fetch her medicine. As soon as he left the room, he bumped into someone who had rushed over from the medicine hall. He stumbled in and said, “Miss, Shopkeeper Liu asked me to call you over and tell you that our medicinal ingredients were seized at the edge of Luoyang City!”
