Chapter 260: Send Supplies
Chi Xinru nodded and said, "No problem. Just concentrate on checking the patient and leave this matter to me."
After Chi Xinru finished speaking, Chi Xiyou came back. He put the old wooden table he bought from one of the porridge stalls and said, "Ru’er, you can use this."
Chi Xinru nodded, went to get a stool, took out the bronze scales, and then stood behind the table. She looked at the refugees and said, "Whoever wants to get the medicine can come to me."
As soon as she finished speaking, the refugees with prescriptions hurriedly lined up in front of Chi Xinru. Seeing Chi Xinru starting to prepare the medicinal materials with the help of Chi Xiyou, Duan Yixin also looked at the first person in the row in front of her and said, "Please take a seat."
While the three of them were busy with their own tasks, Xuan Ruiquan was responsible for protecting them and guarding the medicinal materials. While the four of them were busy, the staff at the local magistrate’s office were also very busy.
After Xuan Ruiquan’s visit yesterday, Assistant Huo took over most of the decision power in the local county government.
Under his leadership, the staff, servants, and guards finally collected enough medicinal materials and food for the refugees for a week. Moreover, Chang Shou Pharmacy gave them a low price for the medicinal materials, and the results were even better than they expected.
"Have the medicinal materials and grains been prepared?" Assistant Huo asked while checking the list in his hand.
A staff member in charge of transporting the goods nodded and said, "Yes. Everything is ready. The guards are also ready, and we can leave anytime now."
