Chapter 89 - 89 Don’t Cause Us Any Trouble89 Don’t Cause Us Any Trouble
Zhao Chuchu still insisted on giving Niu An the money. She stuffed the silvers in his hand and turned to start packing, not giving him a chance to refuse anymore.
Niu An looked at the silvers in his hand. He was filled with a particular type of emotion that he could not describe.
“Mr. Niu, can you help me take care of Dalang and Junjun? I just remembered that I need to get some Chinese medicine.” Zhao Chuchu requested after she had finished packing. “I’ll be back soon.”
“Do you need me to help you carry the stuff?” Niu An quickly asked.
“It’s okay. Just help me look after them.” Zhao Chuchu paused and turned to look at Xie Heng. “Wait for me here.”
!!
“Okay.” Xie Heng nodded.
He could tell that Zhao Chuchu was going to look to sell the Sky Heart Herb.

Even though the plague had been taken care of, the Spring Medicine Hall was still filled with patients.
Zhao Chuchu scanned the place and saw that none of the patients had any severe illness. With that, she headed to the counter.
“Excuse me, do you have the Sky Heart Herb here?”
“The Sky Heart Herb? We don’t have any in stock right now. Are you looking to purchase one?” The owner immediately let his staff take care of the matter he was handling to personally serve Zhao Chuchu. “The Sky Heart Herb is a very rare find. There’s a huge market for it, but the herb itself is almost priceless. I’m sorry to say this, but you might not be able to afford one. Why don’t you look for other things instead of the Sky Heart Herb?”
“How much is it?”
“200 for one Sky Heart Herb.”
“200 silvers?”
“No. 200 golds.”
As one gold was equal to 10 silvers, it would mean that a Sky Heart Herb could sell for more than 1000 silvers.
The Sky Heart Herb was much more valuable than gold itself.
“Also, the price of a fresh Sky Heart Herb is much more than a dry Sky Heart Herb.”
“How much more?”
“At least this much.”
The owner showed three fingers.
“300 golds?”
The owner nodded. He looked at Zhao Chuchu. “Miss, why don’t you tell me the patient’s symptoms? I might be able to suggest an alternative to the Sky Heart Herb. The effect might not be as good, but if you are patient enough, the illness will still eventually get cured.”
“I see. Is there any chance you’ll purchase the Sky Heart Herb if someone sells it?” Zhao Chuchu asked, feeling as if there was a hole in her wallet. She did not expect the Sky Heart Herb to be so expensive. She had already lost around 6000 silvers before she could even start curing Xie Jun’s poison.
“Of course. But, I’ve set up my business in Yuanjiang County for 30 more years, and I have yet to see a person manage to harvest a Sky Heart Herb.” The owner smiled. He wasn’t laughing at Zhao Chuchu’s lack of knowledge, believing that it was normal for a young lady not to know everything in the world.
“I-” Before Zhao Chuchu could even say anything, she was interrupted.

A man ran into the medicine hall with a pregnant woman in his arms. The woman was covered in blood, and she seemed lifeless. If not for the weak breathing motion in her chest, others would think she was already dead.
Zhao Chuchu frowned.
The doctor of the medicine hall immediately got up. The moment he saw the pregnant woman’s state, he paused and shook his head. “I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can do to save her. You’ll have to look for someone else.”
The man got so anxious after hearing that. “Doctor! Please! You have to save my wife!” he begged.
“I told you. There’s nothing I can do.” The doctor sighed. “It’s better that you get prepared for her funeral…”
The doctor clearly understood that he wasn’t good enough to save the woman. As the woman was still alive, he didn’t want her to die while he was performing the treatment. If that happened, he would have much explaining to do.”
“Please! I beg you! I… I can be your slave if you want! Just save her!” The man wailed.
Zhao Chuchu approached the man. After a quick glance, she said, “Owner, can you prepare a bed for me? I can save her.”
Everyone turned to look at Zhao Chuchu as soon as she said that.
“Miss, please don’t cause us any trouble,” The doctor replied grumpily. “How can a young lady like you save her when I can’t? Can you handle the consequences if you can’t save her?”
