Chapter 19: Turning The Situation
" No matter what the Cai Family does, the Nie Family doesn't need to meddle in it."
" Of course, Why not?" The middle aged man snorted. " After all, Everyone in the Great Yan Kingdom should strive to deter the strong and help the weak. If the Cai Family tries to suppress the commoners, the Nie Family would have to oppose it."
Jia Hao looked at the middle aged man as he already marked a red cross on his face in his heart. It looks like he was some prominent figure of the Nie Family, who is probably behind the trouble.
Cai Lingzhi simply snorted as she looked at Old Yang. " Uncle Yang, No need to mind them. We should try to save the patients first."
Soon, the drinks were distributed among the patients. Not long after taking the first sip, many of those patients who were feeling lethargic got up.
" This...Fruit Juice?"
" This tastes so good. Eh? I am no longer feeling nausea?"
The crowd gasped as they saw the swift recovery of the patients. The village folks of Anzu village got up as they looked at their loved ones with energy.
" I am... I am no longer feeling weak. And the sweet and sour taste of the orange...It simply makes my body jump."
" Indeed! It changed the taste of my mouth. I can finally feel some hunger."
Pharmacist Mo was excited as he shouted. " Prepare some brown gruel and feed it to them."
Only half an hour later, the majority of the patients got up and looked healthy. After eating the porridge, many of them felt full once again. Jia Hao felt the main property of Purple Shade Flower is to weaken people through frequent body discharge, which his instant energy drink negated.
However, he also found the clue to manipulate the odds of item enchantment. Without any doubt, he looked into the Pot of Miracles in his consciousness, checking other items in it.
Thousand Layer Dagger: A dagger made up of the highest quality cold iron, tempered for a thousand times. An excellent item to chop vegetables and people alike.
Sparkling Pure Water: Purest water with a bit of tongue teasing spark. It can easily enhance the taste of any wine or drink.
Packet Of Delicious Chocolates: A delicacy that can instantly improve someone's mood. Not to mention, after taking a bite, they will definitely eat another.

The Fragrant Medicine Store is renowned in Nanhai City, competing with other elite medicinal facilities. Naturally, the treatment fees here are higher than others.
However, Anzu Village is a small backwater village, filled with farmers and workers of the lowest wages. Even if all of them pool their savings, they couldn't give the treatment fees of a single person, much less a few dozen people here who were lying here.
An old man knelt before Cai Lingzhi and others. " This incompetent old man is Ma Yuan, the chief of Anzu Village. I am grateful that you have helped our villagers."
Suddenly, he slammed his head on the ground repeatedly as he kowtowed. " My lord, We are just poor farmers. We don't deserve the pity of General Cai's family."
" Saving our villagers, the Anzu Village will be eternally grateful to Cai Family."
The crowd became stunned as they saw all the villagers from Anzu Village knelt before the store. The scene made Jia Hao's heart move. Stepping forward, he waved his hands.
" It's alright. Saving life is greater than building a seven story pagoda. Since so many people affected, it's natural that our Fragrant Medicine Store would help." Jia Hao spoke.
" However, You must give us the treatment fees."
When Jia Hao's words fell, everyone's expression changed. As for those who were from Anzu Village, they couldn't help but feel despair.
After all, they only came to the Fragrant Medicine Store because they had no choice, despite knowing about their financial inability. Therefore, they couldn't help but accept Cai Family's demands.
Niu Deng's grin widened as he looked at the scene. ' As expected, Cai Family is going to ask for money.'
" The fee will be, 1 silver ingot."
When Jia Hao's voice fell, everyone became silent, gazing at them with shock. The villagers of Anzu Village knelt again with more intensity.
" Long live, Cai Family!"
" Long live Cai Family!"
The sound of the villagers, makes the surroundings vibrate. Cai Lingzhi and Old Yang were stunned when they saw the scene. They thought Jia Hao would demand for money, as something like the orange powder looked like an expensive medicinal powder.
However, With a simple sentence, Jia Hao turned the table and garnered immense favorability from the crowd and villagers.
