She Rebuilt Her Fallen Country With Storage Space-Chapter 133 - : Not a Drop to Waste

“Look Vice General, we brothers couldn’t even stand this morning due to stomach pain, but now we’re fine.”

Jie Chen frowned, said nothing.

Zhao Yushi, standing next to him, was still asking, “Vice General, treating this disease requires a lot of my energy, I can’t help for free.”

“Besides, as you know, I was beaten that day, I have no other demands, I just hope that Xiang Ying could suffer like I did!”

She had just finished speaking when she saw Xiang Ying standing at the entrance of the tent.

Zhao Yushi’s resentful gaze swept over her face.

“Vice General, please give a definite word.”

Before Jie Chen could speak, Lu Feiyi already said: “Vice General, this disease is indeed difficult to treat.”

“But Zhao Yushi is a female prisoner, if you agree to her terms today, tomorrow everyone can leverage their skills to threaten the Vice General.”

“Then is this team still for banishment?”

Jie Chen looked at Zhao Yushi: “Did you hear that? No need to ask further, I won’t agree, and neither will the people in the team.”

“Either you treat them, or you and your brother fend for yourselves.”

Zhao Yushi trembled, then turned to look at Xiang Ying.

“Fine, I won’t insist anymore, as long as Xiang Ying apologizes to me now, I’m still willing to treat! Can this work?”

Xiang Ying folded her arms, her Phoenix Eyes cold: “You tarnish my reputation, and you expect me to apologize? Seems like a night tied up hasn’t cleared your mind.”

Zhao Yushi felt humiliated, clenched her fists.

Her eyes reddening, she looked at Lu Feiyi standing behind Xiang Ying.

Zhao Yushi thought for a moment, then said to Jie Chen: “I can treat, but I will only treat Nanyue soldiers, I won’t take care of these sick water bandits.”

“If Vice General Jie does not agree, I would rather die! I can’t swallow this grievance.”

Having said that, she fiercely lifted the tent curtain and left.

Jie Chen raised his eyes to Xiang Ying, who took the initiative to say: “Let’s do as she wishes, let her treat the Nanyue soldiers, Lu Feiyi this side, doesn’t need her attention.”

“Have you brought back all the cotton clothes I asked for?”

Xiang Ying nodded: “However, there’s not enough, one hundred fifty cotton clothes, one hundred mink coats.”

Jie Chen nodded: “I’ll go to the neighboring town to buy cotton clothes tonight, Supervisor Ke will manage the team temporarily, no matter what he says, don’t argue with him, let’s talk when I get back.”

Xiang Ying revealed a cold sneer: “Why would I conflict with him who is so single-minded, you should remind him not to be used by others.”

After Jie Chen left the camp, Supervisor Ke strongly advocated that Zhao Yushi begins treating the soldiers who have diarrhea and vomiting.

Half a day passed, and these soldiers indeed got much better.

Perhaps fearing that Xiang Ying would steal her methods, Zhao Yushi asked Supervisor Ke to coordinate with her, setting up a row of tents, only allowing Nanyue soldiers to enter.

And those sick water bandits had to stay on the other side.

Xiang Ying had Qi Fengyi and Lu Feiyi carry a pot of water for the water bandits to drink.

“Everyone must drink, drink more water, the faster you’ll recover.”

She had just finished instructing when Xiang Qianqian passed by her side and couldn’t help but say, “Big sister, didn’t you hear Miss Zhao say, it’s very likely these people got sick because of unclean water?”

“Why are you still giving these people dirty water? Won’t it make their condition worse?”

Xiang Ying glanced at her: “If you have nothing to do, go run a few laps and don’t worry about our matters.”

Xiang Qianqian, having been scolded, drew a cold smirk at the corner of her lips.

Just wait and see how Zhao Yushi will cure all these soldiers, then we’ll see how arrogant Xiang Ying can be!

Night fell.

The cooks prepared food, none of which the water bandits could eat.

When they went to get their food, the cooks, troubled, told them: “Supervisor Ke, following Miss Zhao’s instructions, separated all the food.”

“You can eat that over there.” The cook pointed to the cold steamed buns in the baskets.

Harder than stones.

The water bandits had a hard day with empty stomachs, and now they had to eat hard buns.

Even men of iron couldn’t endure such disgrace.

They went directly to Lu Feiyi, who was right in Xiang Ying’s tent.

“Master, Master, they are bullying us too much, they don’t treat us like humans at all.”

“Yes, we are all people from West Zhou, why is Zhao Yushi specifically making things difficult for us?”

Xiang Ying indifferently replied with her red lips: “She’s not making things difficult for you, she’s trying to compete with me. But, there’s no need to submit, we have food to eat.”

Lu Feiyi looked at them: “Master already had meals prepared for you, take your brothers and line up to get it.”

Xiang Ying had already instructed Tao Xue, Qi Fengyi, and the Seventh Princess along with some other women to help steam a big pot of rice.

Another pot contained cabbage, vermicelli, and stewed meat.

Each soldier, as they passed by, had to stand holding a bowl for a long while.

It smelled so delicious!

They wanted to get a bowl, but were stopped by Qi Fengyi.

“Zhao Yushi said that eating our food might worsen your condition, better not to mix your meals.”

The soldiers left, regretfully marveling at how tantalizingly fragrant the rice was.

Zhao Yushi, frowning discontentedly upon hearing them.

“If you keep praising her, go over to her side, you’ll lose not just your dinner, but your lives! What use is food then?”

The comment silenced the soldiers.

The water bandits each held a bowl of white rice with two scoops of cabbage, meat, and vermicelli stew, delicious enough to nearly bite off their tongues.

They talked among themselves.

“I feel like even if I died tomorrow after eating the food Master provided, I would die without regrets.”

“Is it just me, or do I feel much better after eating?”

“The food is good, but it’s a bit too salty…”

Little did they know, Xiang Ying had deliberately instructed Tao Xue to add a lot of salt.

People with diarrhea need timely replenishment of salt and Xiang Ying also wanted to make them thirsty.

In the tent, Xiang Ying quietly took out antiparasitic pills from his space, crushed them, and sprinkled them in the water prepared for the water bandits to drink.

The sick soldiers, after eating, indeed all felt terribly thirsty and ran to Xiang Ying’s place for water.

They didn’t care anymore if it was dirty water, they drank big bowls dry.

Xiang Ying stood by with arms crossed, nibbling on his roasted pork skewers while instructing: “Don’t waste even a drop.”

Zhao Yushi intentionally walked past Xiang Ying’s tent, originally to see what they were up to.

When she saw the group of water bandits drinking the dirty water again, Zhao Yushi was relieved.

She scoffed coldly.

Xiang Ying wasn’t as capable as those soldiers said.

By midnight.

The water bandits once again had a collective outbreak of diarrhea, seemingly worse than during the day.

Zhao Yushi took the opportunity to say to Supervisor Ke: “Supervisor, the urgent task is to relocate Xiang Ying and his group.”

“Otherwise, if they keep hanging around us, it will eventually worsen the soldiers’ illness even more.”
