Jiang Quan still couldn’t understand.

So Yingbao broke it down for him.

“That man ordered fifty boxes of cakes in one go, asking you to deliver them to Feihe Building. Then he would find various excuses to borrow money from us, promising to settle it all in Feihe Building. After you lend him money, he takes it and runs. That’s one possibility.”

“If he can’t borrow money from us, the goods you delivered to Feihe Building will be confiscated and smuggled out from a backdoor. That’s the second possibility.”

“Thirdly, if you lend him money and give the goods to the clerk you first met, you will end up with nothing. When you go to Feihe Building for an explanation, you’ll find out that the proprietor is actually someone else and the clerk who had contact with you has disappeared.”

Jiang Quan was stunned. “So, are there several of them involved in this fraud?”

“Yes, they are specifically scamming new and inexperienced shops like ours.”

Yingbao continued, “So regardless of the size of the business in the future, I will not entertain any that require credit.”

Jiang Quan broke out in a cold sweat.

If he had fallen for it just now, he wouldn’t only lose dozens of taels of silver but might also lose dozens of boxes of cakes.

“Yingbao, how do you know all this?” Jiang Quan asked suspiciously, finally feeling the gravity of the situation.

His younger cousin acted just like a street fortune teller, she saw through everything.

Yingbao ignored him.

Her silence was more meaningful than words, better to let him guess.

At night, when Yingbao escorted Jiang Jie back to the county government, she gave him three boxes of chestnut cakes, three boxes of homemade medicated pills, and three bottles of rejuvenating water. He was to keep one set, with the remaining divided between Wu Daozi and Mr. Wu.

In the following days, Yingbao and Sister Dani turned all the chestnuts into cakes and packed them into boxes.

Her only female patient, Dongmei, made another visit. This time, Dongmei looked even healthier.

“I will be able to accompany my father on stage tomorrow.” Dongmei bowed respectfully to Yingbao, “Thanks once again to Doctor Yingbao for saving my life.”

Yingbao hastily supported Dongmei to prevent her from bowing down, “It’s nothing, really.”

Dongmei looked around the shop, smiled and asked, “Does Doctor Yingbao want me to promote your shop?”

“That’d be great.” Yingbao was eager, “Dongmei, how much silver should we pay you each month?”

“I don’t want silver.” Dongmei smiled, “As long as Doctor Yingbao gives me a jar of Rootless Water each month.”

The Rootless Water not only made her healthier, but her parents also improved significantly after drinking it.

Their complexion improved, and even their mobility seemed better.

She and her father, due to their years of storytelling, had rough voices. Now, not only were their voices clearer, they could even perform three shows in a row without their voices getting hoarse. It seemed that the Rootless Water was a good thing indeed.

And no other places were selling it, showcasing the extraordinary medical skills of Doctor Yingbao who managed to concoct such a magical water.

Yingbao immediately nodded in agreement, “Alright then.”

It’s just Pupil Spring water, of which she had plenty. She would fill a big jar for her later.

Dongmei took a look around the shop, memorizing the prices of each item, then asked, “Are these all the items that you have in stock? Do you have any others?”

“Yes, we do!” Yingbao took out a prepared product introduction, “Our shop specializes in Qinchuan County’s specialty products. The golden and snow mushrooms are our main products. You can see their prices and effects here.”

She had initially planned to hire a singer to promote her shop, but she didn’t need to do that now.

With Dongmei’s current beautiful appearance and sweet voice, she believed that she would soon become popular and her influence would be no lesser than that of a singer.

Dongmei read through the product introduction and asked, “Can I take this home and study it slowly?”

“Of course, of course,” Yingbao said. She would naturally wholeheartedly support Dongmei, who worked so diligently.
