Chapter 283 Miss Shen, why don't you just name a price?
Seeing that the other party had completed her request, Shen Ruolan began to give him acupuncture.
While inserting needles into her, Shen Ruolan said to Jiang Qin, "It will take a long time to cure your disease with just acupuncture. Come with me into the mountains in a few days. I will teach you a set of exercises to cure the disease. You can practice them slowly and see if the effect will be better."
The exercises left by the Taoist grandfather in the previous life are really powerful. She has seen it with her own eyes. A cancer patient refused all kinds of chemotherapy from Western medicine. She received conservative treatment and persisted in practicing exercises for five years.
Unexpectedly, five years later, he miraculously returned to normal and the so-called cancer disappeared.
She really hoped to pass on the skills left by the Taoist grandfather and the medical skills of her Shen family so that all patients could be free from pain.
There is also this technique, which normal people can practice, but she has too many things to do every day and can't take care of it.
When she has more free time in the future, she will bring her grandfather and others to practice together.
Jiang Qin listened to Shen Ruolan's words. He looked at her weakly and said, "Do you think I can go into the mountains with you in this state?"
He now had trouble even getting out of bed, let alone hiking into the mountains with her.
Shen Ruolan raised her eyebrows and glanced at him and said, "Then what do you say we should do? Your illness won't be cured in a short time. I can't leave my family in the mountains. I won't stay here for long."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she paused and continued, "By the way, I'm a little short of money recently. If it's convenient for Your Highness, could you please pay some of the medical expenses first?"
Jiang Qin saw Shen Ruolan asking him for medical expenses right after the start, which made him twitch his lips. He looked at her and said, "It's not easy for you to see a doctor, but you are quite proactive in asking for money."
Shen Ruolan said: "That's right, no one would have a problem with silver."
Jiang Qing listened to her and looked at her with a half-smile and said, "If you like money so much, Jiang Dichen has a lot of it, why do you try every possible means to leave the Han Palace?"
Shen Ruolan paused for a moment and said to him, "You also said that it belonged to Jiang Dichen. How can you spend other people's money as freely as you can with your own money?"
When Shen Ruolan said this, she looked up at Jiang Qing and asked with a smile: "Your Highness, is that right?"
Jiang Qing looked at the smiling woman in front of him and couldn't help being a little dazed. Her smile was really so beautiful that it was not an exaggeration to describe her as gentle as jade and stunningly beautiful.
Seeing the prince staring at her in a daze, Shen Ruolan deliberately inserted the needle with force.
The prince hissed in pain, came back to his senses, and said to Shen Ruolan with an unhappy look on his face: "Shen Ruolan, you did it on purpose just now, didn't you?"
Shen Ruolan: "Yes and no."
After she finished speaking, she paused and continued to say to Jiang Qing: "Your Highness, as a patient, if you want to get better quickly, you must have a clear mind. Otherwise, even the Great Luo Immortal can't save you."
Jiang Qing snorted at her and said, "I'm fine, you don't need to remind me."
After that, the two stopped talking.
Half an hour later, Shen Ruolan took out the needles and told Jiang Qin, "You can't take a shower today. If you want to take a shower, you can do it at 3 p.m. tomorrow. I'll come back to help you with acupuncture later."
Shen Ruolan said as she gave him another prescription: "Take this prescription for now, one dose a day, once in the morning and once in the evening."
Du Xiang, who was standing by, responded to Shen Ruolan: "Yes, Miss Shen, we will remember it."
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out to take the prescription.
Shen Ruolan quickly moved the prescription aside, stretched out her hand and asked Du Fang, "Where's the silver?"
Du Fang had no choice but to take out two hundred taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Shen Ruolan, saying, "Here, Miss Shen, you don't need to change it."
Shen Ruolan looked at the two hundred taels of silver and almost laughed out of anger. It turned out that Du Fang was just sending away beggars?
Shen Ruolan held two silver notes and said to Du Fang: "I helped Xia Hongmiao treat his illness, and he gave me 5 million catties of grain, 800,000 taels of silver, and 30,000 sets of farm tools..."
Du Fang's scalp was numb from what Shen Ruolan said. He quickly interrupted her and said, "Miss Shen, why don't you just name a price?"
After he finished speaking, he paused and added: "However, my master is not as rich as Xia Hongmiao, so don't ask for too much!"
Du Fang was really afraid that Shen Ruolan would ask them for compensation.
Jiang Qing on the bed also looked at Shen Ruolan with a gloomy expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Shen Ruolan glanced at Jiang Qin and his servant, she coughed dryly, and said to Du Fang and his servant, "How about this, since you are relatives of my two children, I will suffer a little loss and accept 200,000 taels of silver from you. Pay 100,000 now, and the remaining 100,000 can be paid later."
Jiang Qing is different from Mu Jinxuan and Xia Hongmiao, so Shen Ruolan doesn't dare to ask him for too much.
After all, she is still a citizen of Beiming, and there is a war in Beiming now. If she asks for too much, Jiang Qing or the emperor or the queen will find a way to make her spit it out, especially food. She dare not even mention it.
So, she asked for 200,000 taels of silver, which was neither too much nor too little.
After Jiang Qin heard Shen Ruolan's words, he sneered at her and said, "How dare you ask for it."
Two hundred thousand taels of silver is indeed insignificant compared to what Xia Hongmiao gave, but for Jiang Qin, it is also a considerable sum of money.
Because of last year's autumn harvest, he was sent to buy grain. Due to the sharp increase in grain prices, he was unable to complete the task assigned by his father, so he paid the difference out of his own pocket.
Although his father would give him some money, he knew very well what the current state of the national treasury was like. In addition, there was a war going on now, so his father would rather ask his sons to contribute all the treasury money, let alone give him some money.
Shen Ruolan said helplessly: "I can't help it, I have to eat too."
Jiang Qing stared at Shen Ruolan for a long time and said to her: "Two hundred thousand taels is too much, one hundred thousand taels at most."
"One hundred thousand taels, this is also..." Seeing Shen Ruolan complaining that it was too little, Jiang Qing interrupted her and said, "Shen Ruolan, what is the current situation in Beiming? I believe Jiang Dichen has told you that I can also give you two hundred thousand taels, but every penny I spend must be approved by the emperor. Tell me, if he knew that you charged so much money for my medical treatment, what would he think?"
Shen Ruolan looked at Jiang Qing who threatened her with the emperor, and she hated him so much that her teeth itched. She had no choice but to compromise and said, "One hundred thousand taels is one hundred thousand taels. Give it to me within three days."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she packed up her things and left angrily.
When she was about to leave the room, she suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Jiang Qing: "By the way, Your Highness, you will follow me into the mountains. Please take care of your own food and lodging."
After she finished speaking, she paused and added: "Of course, I can also provide meals and accommodation in the mountains, but there will be a charge."
After saying this, Shen Ruolan left without looking back, leaving Jiang Qing and his servant looking at each other.
Du Xiang asked his master: "Master, how are you now?"
