Chapter 771 Drawing Talisman
When Tang Wan returned to her residence in the prefectural capital, she did not go back to the main house first, but went straight to the back room to visit Wang Xiaohua.

As soon as Tang Wan entered the knife-wielding room, Xiao Hua, who was lying down, was about to get up to pay her respects, but Tang Wan gently pressed her down: "No need for formalities, just rest well."

After Wang Da finished unloading the carriage, he saw Tang Wan enter the knife-making room and followed her back.

Tang Wan placed the food box she had brought back from Piaoxiang Pavilion next to Xiaohua's pillow and said to Wang Xiaohua, "These are pastries from Piaoxiang Pavilion. They should taste good. Xiaohua, have a taste."

Upon entering the room and witnessing this scene, Wang Da hurriedly refused, saying, "Master, this is too precious. Please keep it for yourself!"

Tang Wan raised her hand to refuse, saying, "Let Xiaohua eat. Xiaohua is a patient and doesn't have a good appetite. Eating something delicious can help her get some nutrition."

Wang Da was very grateful to Tang Wan and thanked her repeatedly.

Wang Xiaohua, sitting on the kang (heated brick bed), also thanked them profusely.

Tang Wan walked closer and looked at Xiao Hua's complexion. It was a little better than in the morning, and she felt a little relieved. After all, she was the one who had saved Wang Xiao Hua.

However, she still patiently instructed, "The pastries at Piaoxiang Pavilion are delicious, but you shouldn't eat too much. Your spleen and stomach are still weak, so just a little is enough. Rest well, and remember to take the medicine you brought this morning on time so that your body can recover quickly."

What I actually brought over this morning was the spiritual spring water from the space. Xiao Hua's body is weak and her foundation is poor, so drinking some spiritual spring water will only benefit her and not harm her.

Little Flower nodded obediently in agreement.

After settling Xiaohua in, Tang Wan returned to the main house.

She closed the door, and with a thought, entered the space.

The space was still filled with spiritual energy.

Tang Wan first went to check on the newly sown crops. The tender green seedlings had already broken through the soil and were growing well.

After inspecting the area and confirming that everything was alright, she turned and went into the study on the second floor of the villa.

This study was where she often practiced her skills and drew talismans.

Lately, I've been busy with many miscellaneous matters such as the autumn harvest, workshops, rescue efforts, and grain returns, and it's been quite some time since I've had the chance to calmly draw talismans.

Tang Wan walked to her desk, spread out the specially made yellow paper, ground the ink mixed with cinnabar and a little spiritual spring water, and concentrated her mind, clearing away all distractions.

Tang Wan picked up the brush, which was dipped in cinnabar, and wrote with great skill, channeling spiritual energy into the talisman paper through the tip of the brush.

First, he drew several commonly used "house purification talismans", "mind-calming talismans", and "peace talismans" for emergencies. Then he tried to draw more complex "Vajra talismans" and "Five Thunder talismans".

After thinking for a moment, Tang Wan drew a few more "message talismans". These talismans can transmit information in a simple way, but the distance cannot be too far. It should be no problem to transmit messages within a hundred miles.

Tang Wan was completely absorbed in the painting process, her mind completely focused.

Tang Wan put down her pen only when she felt that her spiritual energy had been greatly depleted and she was somewhat mentally exhausted.

Having finished drawing the talismans, he looked at the large stack of talismans on the table and nodded in satisfaction.

Suddenly, Tang Wan felt a little hungry, so she took out a plate of spaghetti from the refrigerator, heated it up briefly, and made do with that.

After eating and feeling refreshed, Tang Wan left the space.

Remembering that Xiaohua needed nourishment, she called Wang Da and asked, "Wang Da, did you kill a chicken today to make soup for Xiaohua?"

Wang Da scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Back to the master's house, not yet... not yet. I was thinking of doing it later." He was actually reluctant to kill the hen that was laying eggs.

Tang Wan saw through his thoughts and said gently, "Xiao Hua's recovery is the most important thing. Chicken soup is the best for nourishing the body. Go pick a plump one, kill it, and make a good soup. Let her eat as much meat as possible. I'll bring some more next time I come."

Seeing that his master insisted, Wang Da did not hesitate any longer and quickly replied, "Yes, master! I will take care of it right away!"

As he spoke, he quickly went to the chicken coop to catch a chicken.

Tang Wan watched as Wang Dali got down to slaughter the chicken, boiled water to pluck the feathers, and got busy. Only then did she turn around and want to go back to the house to rest for a while.

However, just as she reached the main house, she heard the sound of a carriage coming from outside the courtyard gate, followed by a knock on the door.

Wang Da was busy, and Tang Wan was about to open the door when she saw that Wang Da had already put down his work, wiped his hands on his apron, and ran to open the door.

So Tang Wan waited where she was, to see who would come to her residence at this time.

Before long, the newcomer appeared. He was dressed in a brocade robe, had a smile on his face, and was holding a neatly bound account book in his hand. It turned out to be the eldest son of the Yu family.

Seeing him, Tang Wan suddenly remembered that when the eldest son of the Yu family came to pick up the sorghum last time, he said that he would bring over the account book of the newly launched "Bingyu Shao" for her to check. However, since she had 20% of the profit from this new wine, she should have taken a look at it, both morally and logically.

Before the eldest son of the Yu family even reached Tang Wan, he hurriedly cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Master is here?! I was worried that Master wasn't at the manor today."

Tang Wan replied with a smile, "I had something to do today, so I came over early this morning!"

As they were talking, the eldest son of the Yu family arrived and handed the account book to Tang Wan, explaining, "This is the account book after the 'Ice Jade Burnt' was launched, which we agreed on last time. Please take a look, Master."

Tang Wan took it without hesitation and said with a smile, "I'm not in a hurry to look at the accounts. The young master must be very busy lately. It's the same if I look at them later."

“Even if you’re busy, you should still make time to send it over. I don’t trust anyone else to do it, so it took me two days to finally have time to come,” the eldest son of the Yu family explained with a smile.

Tang Wan nodded slightly and said, "Young Master Yu, you've gone to so much trouble. Please come inside and have a seat."

The two sat down in the hall, and Wang Da quickly served them two cups of hot tea before quietly leaving to continue his work.

Young Master Yu did not rush Tang Wan to look at the accounts. Instead, he picked up his teacup and chatted with Tang Wan for a few minutes.

Tang Wan smiled and agreed, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the eldest son of the Yu family tactfully rose to take his leave: "Master accountant, you may take your time reviewing the accounts. If there is anything unclear or questionable, please send someone to let me know, and I will certainly come to explain. I still have some trivial matters to attend to at the winery, so I will not disturb your peace any longer."

"Young Master Yu, please take your time. I will review the account books later." Tang Wan nodded slightly and rose to see him off.

After the eldest son of the Yu family left, Tang Wan opened the account book. The account book was extremely detailed, listing everything from the cost of "Bingyu Shao" (including grain, yeast, labor, firewood, etc.) to the quantity of each batch of wine produced, the time, quantity, and price of distribution, and the final amount of money received.

Tang Wan looked at it very carefully.

She is an expert in managing business and has an extremely keen sense of numbers.

While checking, I quickly calculated and verified in my mind.

The cost accounting was reasonable, the sales data matched what she had seen before, and the profit calculation was exactly in accordance with the agreed profit-sharing method. She did not see anything wrong at the moment.
