Chapter 746 The Thief is Expensive

Lao Yu fell asleep, but everyone was still busy, even though they were exhausted by now.

Because Lao Yu wanted to drink porridge, Zhou Ru made porridge directly for him, then combined what he brought from home with what was available here, and made a few dishes, and everyone had dinner.

While she was cleaning up, Zhou Qing and Zhou Li helped, but Xi Yao was stared at by Zhou Rong and Dr. Qin... who stared at the alcohol in her hand.

"Forehead!"

Their gazes were really too hot. Xi Yao couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to, so he pursed his lips and said, "If Lao Yu's wound can be improved, I can hand over the method of making it, but for now, the refinement of this thing is very difficult." It’s expensive, but based on the current situation in Daqian, it’s a bit difficult to produce it on a large scale!”

Doctor Qin asked confused and curiously: "What kind of refinement is this?"

No matter what kind of herb it is, if you just plant it at the worst, how can it be so difficult?

Xi Yao sighed and said, "This is made from wine!"

"liquor?"

Zhou Rong and Doctor Qin shouted in unison, obviously in disbelief.

"Yes, wine. I spent hundreds of taels of silver to buy wine, but the alcohol extracted is less than one-tenth!" She said helplessly.

The wine was not good enough, so she had no choice but to make do with it.

Zhou Rong and Doctor Qin looked at each other and finally understood what Xi Yao meant when he said that thieves are expensive.

Even if this medicine is made from ginseng, they can still think of it, but this wine... is brewed from grain, which is expensive to begin with, and this alcohol is only one tenth of it, which is too much.

The people were already underfed, and there was even less food. If it was known that food was wasted in the military camp, even if it was to save people, this would not be a good statement, let alone Xi Yao, who provided this method, said You might be attacked.

Zhou Rong said decisively for Xi Yao: "Then don't tell the general!"

But Doctor Qin didn't think so.

He is a doctor, and it is his responsibility to save lives and heal the wounded.

Without medicine, there is no solution, but if he has medicine but cannot use it, he will become restless.

An injury like Lao Yu's is generally hopeless...

But if he could be saved, how many fewer people would die!

"Why does it have to be food!" He clenched his fists and said unwillingly.

Xi Yao felt their loneliness and reassured them: "It's not possible at the moment, but after the military camp clears up wasteland and grows their own food, no one else can control whether they eat it or make wine!"

By then, if you want alcohol, won’t it be easy?

"There are so many people in the military camp. It is already difficult to feed everyone by opening up wasteland, let alone making wine!" Zhou Rong said with a sigh.

He followed the general and knew these things well.

It is still a bit difficult to open up more land in this short period of time.

The main reason is that I don't want to alarm more people. Otherwise, if we gather the surrounding people, even if they exchange salt for work, countless people will flock to him.

"Take your time. After all, you didn't have anything before. Now you are slowly getting better. What's more, with two seasons of food a year, plus raising pigs, growing vegetables, and even raising fish, etc., you can always

There will be extra food!" Xi Yao comforted him.

Doctor Qin nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, it is better to have hope than despair!"

In the past, they had no idea about alcohol. When they saw injured people, they only felt helpless and desperate.

Now, at least there is a way.
