After all, if Pei Qian insisted, Lu Ze would find it difficult to refuse.

Seeing Pei Qian, who hadn’t shown his face since they arrived in Cloud Mountain City, Lin Suisui was clearly a little surprised. However, thinking that he was a guest after all, she wanted to arrange for someone to add a few dishes and send them to the front yard. Unexpectedly, as soon as she said this suggestion, she was rebuked by Pei Qian with a sigh. “Sigh, Madam Liu, do you already despise me to this extent?!

We even have to split the tables for a meal?!”

Lin Suisui wanted to retort. When had she ever eaten at the same table as him?!

However, on the way here, they did eat by the bonfire together!

She didn’t say anything else. She simply asked Yuan Niang to arrange for more food to be sent over.

“When do you plan to return to the capital?” At the dining table, Lu Ze wasn’t very polite to this uninvited guest.

Pei Qian didn’t mind Lu Ze’s double entendre. He raised his wine glass in Lu Ze’s direction and said slowly, “There’s no hurry. I’ve already sent a letter back to the capital to report to His Majesty that I’m probably staying in the north for the new year. It won’t be too late to go back next spring.”

Speaking of which, I don’t know anyone in the north. Why don’t I come over on New Year’s Eve? The more people, the merrier!”

“You—”

Lu Ze wanted to remind Pei Qian that he still had an aunt who was the wife of a general in the north, but before he could say anything, Pei Qian had already finished the wine in his glass. He flipped the wine cup and gestured to Lu Ze. At the same time, he didn’t forget to interrupt Lu Ze. “If you don’t object, that means you agree!

Don’t worry, I won’t come empty-handed. I’ll definitely prepare a lavish New Year’s gift!”

Lu Ze probably knew that it was useless to stop Pei Qian, so he didn’t waste his effort. He accepted Pei Qian’s request and finished his glass.

At this point, Pei Qian looked at Lin Suisui, who was eating at the side. “Madam Liu, there’s something I think you’re the only one in the north who can help me with.”

“Mr. Pei, if you have anything to say, just say it. If I can help, I definitely won’t refuse.” Although Lin Suisui didn’t know what Pei Qian was up to, seeing that he didn’t seem to have any ill intentions, she thought for a moment and replied calmly.

With Lin Suisui’s approval, Pei Qian continued, “I’ve been investigating military affairs these past few days. The Northern Battlefront Army has slumped to a shockingly corrupt extent!

However, not all of them are corrupt.

Because a few military doctors in the camp refused to listen to Gao Xuwei’s instructions previously, Gao Xuwei had confiscated the soldiers’ medicinal herbs and falsely accused them. Then, they were sentenced to torture. Now, out of the six military doctors, two had lost a leg, one had lost both ears, and three had their arms cut off!

When I found them, they were being used as the lowest-level servants in the Huben Battalion and abused. If we had arrived a little later, they would have been tortured to death with those servants!

I’ve asked around. They all have families in the north, but because of their experiences over the years, their families aren’t in a good situation either!

With their current situation, it’s definitely unsuitable for them to stay in the military camp!

However, if we send them out of the military camp, they will probably have a good life in the future. I heard that you want to open a medical center, so I wonder if these six military doctors can be used by you.

Their medical skills aren’t bad. They’re definitely good at treating patients!

This way, you don’t have to worry about the lack of doctors in the medical center anymore. With you taking care of them, they can earn some money to support their family. It’s killing two birds with one stone.

“What do you think, Madam Liu?!”

“I heard from you that these doctors aren’t only benevolent, but also heroic and brave. According to my previous plans, I only wanted to open a medical center for women.”

Lin Suisui didn’t hide anything from Pei Qian. She briefly explained the plan she had discussed with Yuan Niang over the past few days. Just as Pei Qian thought that she was going to refuse to help settle these doctors, Lin Suisui changed the topic and took the initiative to mention the matter again. “But after hearing your request just now, I have another plan.

I want to open another medical center. This medical center is not for profit. It’s just so more ordinary people coming to get treated. I’ve actually heard from Yuan Niang that life in the north is tough since the weather is cold. Many soldiers’ families actually live very rugged lives. I want to open this medical center for those soldiers and their families in the future.

“If possible, give them some money. If there’s not enough money, they can also use things as payment. For example, if they’re free, they can find some herbs outside Cloud Mountain City and the shop can collect them. This way, everyone will benefit from each other. If my medical center supplements them a little, I believe this business will be sustainable!”

Actually, Lin Suisui had been thinking about this for the past few days.

Previously, she and her mentor had opened more than ten such medical centers in the empire. They were all targeted at poor people who couldn’t afford treatment.

Most of the supplements from these medical centers were the consultation fees she and her mentor collected from those high-ranking officials.

It should be possible to use the same business model here! The herbs used in this medical center actually were not that expensive. Many of them were ordinary herbs that could be found in the mountains outside the city!

This way, it would more or less improve the lives of those soldiers’ families.

“Madam Liu, I admire your righteousness! Since you said that this medical center was set up to treat more families, I can’t stay out of it. I’ll help with this matter.”

When Pei Qian heard Lin Suisui’s words, he was silent for a long time before slowly standing up. Then, he bowed to Lin Suisui and praised her.

Lin Suisui stood up in embarrassment to avoid Pei Qian’s bow. Then, she waved her hand and said awkwardly, “You’re too polite, Mr. Pei. This is nothing!

Actually, I have an idea, but to put it into practice, I still have to consider it carefully!”

“It’s already rare for you to have such thoughts and decisiveness.” Pei Qian looked at Lin Suisui with a smile. Then, he turned to look at Lu Ze, who had already stood up to support Lin Suisui. He said meaningfully, “You’re really lucky!”
