" I am afraid, it won't be efficient." Pharmacist Mo sighed. " The Bright Spot Grass is best for this situation. But the thing, none of them in our warehouse."
" I have sent my servants to purchase some around the city. Yet strange enough, he couldn't find much at all."
" Damn it, This has to be a conspiracy." Cai Lingzhi cursed.
" What is the Frgarnt Medicine Pavilion doing?"
" So many people are in life and death situations, yet the store is doing nothing."
" Should we move to the Three Herbs Store?"
" I thought Fragrant Medicine Pavilion is the number one medicine store in the city. I guess it's all fake."
" Close down the store! Close down if you can't cure it!"
As everyone expected, the ruckus outside grew as people started to shout. However, Jia Hao remained calm as he looked at Pharmacist Mo.
" Elder Mo, Do you know Purple Shade Flower?"
Suddenly, everyone in the store was stunned, especially the servants and Pharmacist Mo.
" Purple Shade Flower, Is a rare and toxic flower. Although it's not poisonous enough to kill someone instantly, It can weaken the body of people..." Pharmacist Mo paused as his eyes widened. " No way! This...This absurd!"
" What do you mean, Pharmacist Mo?" Cai Lingzhi hurriedly asked. " Are they got poisoned?"
" My lady, I am afraid so." Pharmacist Mo replied hurriedly. " However, if its really Purple Shade Flower, it's both good and bad news."
" Good news is, we only need to supply them with enough fluids till they excrete all the juices of Purple Shade Flower's juice out of their bodies."
" However, the fluid must be nutritious and full of energy. And if we do that, the cost would be astronomical." Pharmacist Mo sighed. " I doubt many of those poor villagers could pay for it."
" So either we take loss and save the villagers or let them die." Cai Lingzhi gritted her teeth. " Damn it, Our finance is so tight right now. How can we..."
" Eh? Energizing fluid you say?" Jia Hao suddenly remembered something as he smiled.
" Uncle Yang, Bring me a big pot of water." Jia Hao looked at Old Yang and spoke. Old Yang was surprised, but seeing Cai Lingzhi's nod, he brought a big wooden basket filled with clear water.
Jia Hao nodded as he waved his hand, a big packet of glucose and mineral energy powder appeared in his hand. Looking at it with his Sage's Divine Eyes, Jia Hao was surprised.
Instant Energy Mix Powder: An orange-flavored powder that can be mixed in water instantly. After drinking, it recovers all the fatigue and energizes the body in a few moments. Easy to carry and can be for a large amount of people.
Jia Hao grinned as one of his tests was successful. Seeing the Sage's Divine Eyes description, he felt he truly got a heavenly cheat. After all, even without his Pot of Miracle, just the power of appraisal was enough to make him turn into a dragon among mortals.
Seeing Jia Hao opening a strange packet and drowning in a load of orange powder made everyone stunned. Soon, the barrel of clear water had an orange tint, giving off a fresh fruity smell.
" This, What is this thing?"
" This does smell good. Like freshly picked oranges."
Pharmacist Mo was surprised as he took a scoop of the drink. He was shocked as he smacked his lips. " This...This is so refreshing. I could feel my fatigue simply lessening with a small sip."
" Not to mention, it's...It simply feels like drinking orange juice."
Jia Hao grinned as he nodded. " You can say this is a medicinal powder that would nourish one's fatigued body. Due to the Purple Shade Flower, they are having frequent discharge. It's making the fluid in their body dry and sapping their energy."
" I think if you make them drink this, it will nourish their body and help them to stay alive till they excrete all the Purple Shade Flower juice."
" This...This does feel like Cooling Breeze Potion." Pharmacist Mo was amazed. " If it has the same effectiveness, then the patients can be saved. Yes, We must distribute the drink immediately."
Cai Lingzhi was surprised as she saw the capabilities of her new brother in law. " But the cost..." She spoke in a hesitant voice.
" It doesn't matter, Sister Lingzhi." Jia Hao waved his hands. " We must save the needy people first. As for cost, we can discuss later."
" This bucket has enough water for a dozen people. For every two people, give them one cup of water." Jia Hao spoke. " Only after that, give them some light food that takes less energy to digest. Yes, some grain porridge will be alright."
Everyone was stunned for a moment as a stranger like Jia Hao took charge of the place. However, Pharmacist Mo snapped and shouted. " What are your fools standing for? Hurry up and do as young lord said!"
Soon, they scooped the water from the basket and fed to those who were lying outside.
A large crowd has already formed outside of the Fragrant Medicine Store.
" Hmph! I already told you. Fragrant Medicine Store only caters to the rich." A person snorted. " Just because these villagers are poor, they don't want to treat them at all."
" Not to mention, Pharmacist Mo has already been old. Maybe he already lost his medical expertise."
" Hmph, Close down the store! Cai Family, Close down the store!"
" Who dares to make a ruckus here!"
Old Yang comes out as his voice explodes like a clap of thunder, making the crowd silent at once. Even Jia Hao felt a jumpscare when he heard Old Yang's voice.
Looking at Old Yang, he could feel the vibe of a loyal general who butchered thousands on the battlefield. The powerful bloodlust around him could intimidate mortals intimidated.
" Hmph, Is the Cai Family trying to suppress the commoners?" A middle aged man walked out as the crowd parted.
Old Yang's gaze turned cold as he looked at him. " Niu Deng, What are you doing here?"
