Chapter 299: Chapter 300: New Ideas

"All remembered! Does Master plan to test me?"

Zhuang Muyan’s eyes sparkled, and behind him, there might as well have been an invisible tail, already swinging like a propeller.

"I’ve mastered everything Master taught me inside out, so feel free to test me backward if you must!"

Chu Nanli pressed her forehead somewhat helplessly, "You have only learned so much, even if there were to be a test, it would not be now."

"Wait until you have mastered everything I’ve taught you, then we can talk about testing."

Her words did not discourage Zhuang Muyan.

Instead, it sparked an endless fighting spirit within him.

"Right, Master, you asked me the other day about methods of childbirth for women. My family’s ancestors didn’t record much on this topic, but the Imperial Medical Bureau does have a lot of experiences left by Imperial Physicians. I’ll organize it and bring it to you later."

Zhuang Muyan didn’t know what Chu Nanli needed these for or what she planned to do, but as long as it was Chu Nanli’s command, he would do his utmost.

"However, Master, surely the Divine Doctor, our Grandmaster, also has some knowledge in this field after studying medicine for so many years, right?"

He still didn’t know that the Liuli Divine Doctor he desperately wanted to meet was right in front of him.

"Cough, every craft requires specialization, even a Divine Doctor will have fields he has not ventured into, right?"

Chu Nanli had asked Zhuang Muyan for this information just to be safe.

Only after she had made inquiries did she realize that giving birth in this era was truly a life-threatening ordeal.

Although she had many machines in her space, she couldn’t possibly take them out and use them directly.

She could choose to give birth in her space.

But, her swelling belly would certainly not escape the eyes of others.

And if her belly suddenly flattened without any signs of childbirth,

Wouldn’t that turn her into a monster?

Chu Nanli didn’t dare to take it lightly; she could only make as many preparations as possible before that day came.

"Master, when will I be able to meet the Grandmaster?"

Zhuang Muyan scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, his eyes brimming with anticipation.

"I mean, I am considered your first disciple, the Grandmaster wouldn’t look down on me, would he?"

The mystery surrounding the Liuli Divine Doctor had already attracted the attention of many.

No matter how hard they investigated, they couldn’t find even a trace of a clue.

"That, there might be a chance in the future,"

Chu Nanli quickly glossed over this topic.

Although her name was very similar to the Liuli Divine Doctor’s, no one had ever connected her to the Liuli Divine Doctor.

Ultimately, it was those people’s arrogance

They thought that she a Princess Consort, despised by Ye Yunting, simply had no significant abilities.

After sending Zhuang Muyan away, Zhuang Lin promptly came for a visit.

This time, he came to deliver good news.

"Miss Chu, our martial arts school has just opened recently and many people have already come by reputation. I reckon it will take just a couple more months to break even,"

Zhuang Lin’s interest grew thicker as he talked about making money.

He unconsciously swung the fan in his hand, excitedly describing the prosperity of the martial arts school to Chu Nanli.

"Oh, and I have a rather awkward request."

After discussing the matters concerning the martial arts school, Zhuang Lin continued speaking.

"I mentioned it to Ye Jiuxiao the other day, he’s quite interested in your training methods and is willing to pay Silver just to have a look."

Chu Nanli was calculating the resources she currently had, not engaging in conversation for a moment.

At the Bright Moon Building, there was a stable income every month. Once the martial arts school stabilized, she could save up one or two thousand Silver Coins each month.

A year down the line, that would amount to a fortune beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Zhuang Lin thought she was troubled by not speaking.

Recalling Ye Jiuxiao’s instructions, he clenched his teeth and spoke again.

"If it’s a matter of not having enough Silver Coins, Miss Chu, just say the word. Also, this training method is only for his perusal; it absolutely won’t fall into the hands of others."

"What Silver Coins?"

Only then did Chu Nanli snap back to reality, and from Zhuang Lin’s expression, she began to guess the situation.

It seemed that the training method she had provided could indeed have a significant impact in this era.

But this was merely the most basic training method from 2090.

She did have the advanced version, but the physical constitution of the common people in this era definitely couldn’t withstand such intense training.

"If he wants to see it, he should just ask me directly. What need is there to talk about Silver Coins?"

Chu Nanli waved her hand nonchalantly, Ye Jiuxiao had helped her before, and the two were already considered friends.

She was not so obsessed with wealth.

"However, if his army wants to use this method, they’ll still need to consult me for improvements."

Zhuang Lin chuckled awkwardly, "The Prince has already surrendered his Tiger Talisman, where would he get an army from?"

"If you say so."

Chu Nanli didn’t bother to expose his flimsy lie.

As far as she knew, the Red Dragon Army was created by Ye Jiuxiao alone.

Even if Ye Jiuxiao had handed over the Tiger Talisman, his authority within the army would still be absolute.

She definitely knew more about military matters than Zhuang Lin.

Zhuang Lin was covering for Ye Jiuxiao, and she wasn’t about to puncture that veil.

"You said you would show the training method to Ye Jiuxiao. Is he about to return to the capital?"

Ye Jiuxiao had been away from the capital for some time now.

She wondered whether his tasks were proceeding smoothly.

"The last time the Prince wrote, he said it would probably take him another ten to fifteen days to wrap things up." Zhuang Lin had actually been keeping in touch with him since Ye Jiuxiao left.

"Then if you’re sending this letter to the Southern Border, isn’t he already on his way back? Wouldn’t that be a wasted effort if you missed him?"

At this, pride flickered across Zhuang Lin’s face, "Ordinary people sending messages to the Southern Border would take ten to fifteen days."

"What, can your people fly or something?"

Chu Nanli wasn’t ignorant of the communication methods of this era; they were nothing but speed built on manpower.

"How did Miss Chu know?"

Zhuang Lin unrolled his fan and began to explain proudly to Chu Nanli.

"I adopted the method of training eagles from the Western Regions, and specifically trained a group of eagles for messaging, which are three times faster than pigeons. It only takes a day and a night to send messages from the capital to the south."

"Also, a pigeon can only carry so much, but eagles are different – they can carry both messages and goods."

"Of course, the Prince also helped a lot; without him, I wouldn’t have been able to find the method of nourishing eagles."

The trained eagles were used not only for internal messaging, but he had also expanded a lot of business outside, specifically for delivering urgent family messages.

Chu Nanli couldn’t help but remark, "It’s a pity not to go into courier service with that idea of yours."
