Chapter 628: Chapter 631: Frostbite Ointment
"Why did you suddenly ask about this? Are your hands getting frostbitten?"
As she spoke, Jiang Ran looked at Wang Cuilan’s hands.
Her hands were perfectly fine, showing no signs of frostbite.
Noticing Jiang Ran’s gaze, Wang Cuilan knew what Jiang Ran was thinking and quickly explained with a smile.
"It’s not for my own use. I just think that in this kind of weather, there must be many people whose hands are frostbitten. If we make some to sell, it should sell well."
That was indeed true.
Jiang Ran nodded, "You’re right. I’ll start preparing in the next couple of days."
But she alone wouldn’t be able to make much.
Even in the small town, it wasn’t enough to sell, let alone now.
Pei Huai, upon hearing this, also spoke up.
"I’ll help you."
Jiang Ran smiled at this and then asked, "Don’t you have your own things to attend to?"
"Not for the time being. Let’s talk after the New Year."
This meant that until New Year, Pei Huai didn’t have anything else to do and could completely focus on helping Jiang Ran.
Having someone to help was certainly a good thing.
And if that person was Pei Huai, even better.
Since Pei Huai was helping, there was no need to wait until tomorrow.
Instead of idly sitting around, it was better to find something to do.
Jiang Ran and Pei Huai stood up together, walking along the corridor to the East Courtyard and entered the room.
This room also had a floor dragon, though it hadn’t been lit as there was no one around.
Once the two arrived, they quickly lit the floor dragon.
At first, it didn’t feel warm.
But soon enough, the room began to warm up.
Once it wasn’t cold anymore, Jiang Ran went to prepare the materials.
The medicinal herbs were all ready.
Pei Huai had helped make these before, so he was familiar with them.
The two worked together with great synergy.
Once truly busy, they didn’t notice time passing by.
It wasn’t until Wang Cuilan called them for lunch that they realized it was already noon.
They had come over in the morning!
Without even noticing, it was already noon.
The two tidied up their materials, washed their hands, and joined Wang Cuilan back at the main courtyard.
After lunch, Wang Cuilan suggested Jiang Ran take a rest.
But Jiang Ran was already full of energy and went straight back to the East Courtyard.
Seeing Jiang Ran go, Pei Huai, of course, followed.
In just a day, they had processed all the necessary medicinal herbs.
Working together, Jiang Ran prepared more materials than usual.
This meant there would be more frostbite ointment produced.
In the following days, Jiang Ran and Pei Huai spent most of their time in the pharmacy.
Fortunately, all their efforts paid off.
The results of their hard work were visible to the naked eye.
They already had wooden boxes custom-made, now just ready to use.
Of course, these were not the same as the ones for scar removal ointment. They were simple wooden boxes, with no inscriptions or carvings.
The price of the frostbite ointment wouldn’t be high, so there was no need for fancy packaging.
Looking at the table full of frostbite ointment, Jiang Ran felt a great sense of accomplishment.
The plan to make frostbite ointment had been mentioned to Chen Bing before.
Now that everything was ready, they could call Chen Bing over.
