Chapter 4 Acacia Pharmacy
"My lord, people have brought it. Feng Jiu said and pushed the man forward.
This person is really extremely thin, and he was almost pushed this time, but fortunately, his small body was also brisk, and he was resolved by two or three stomps.
"Lord Fang is good, the little one is You Chunyao. This person was also cheeky, he didn't stand firmly, and he looked up and flattered Fang Ming. "I heard a young magistrate from Jinxi County a long time ago, but I haven't had a chance to visit. When I saw it today, I was really a dragon and a phoenix among people, and ...... suave and suave among people."
"It's over...... Are you the owner of Xingle Fang?" asked Fang Ming.
"Lord Fang is really discerning, the boss doesn't dare to be the boss, the small one is the shopkeeper of Xingle Fang. ”
Feng Jiu scolded when he heard this: "You kid be honest, don't put this big man on the back!"
Chen Shi, who had always spoken little, also followed: "Yes! Lord Fang, you can't be so polite to this kid. When Feng Jiu and I went to look for him in his store, we ran into him testing medicine for his daughter-in-law, and the clothes were so hot that he couldn't wear them, so he just sat aside and drank tea. ”
"Later, the medicine was too strong, and we had no choice, so we could only ask my grandmother on the same street to help take care of it. Chen Shi said, Nunu mouthed. "I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup this kid poured into his daughter-in-law? He didn't squeak, and his daughter-in-law didn't dare to look up. The station was unstable, and I didn't dare to let my grandmother help me. ”
Feng Jiu added angrily: "Later, we glared at this kid, and this kid let go and let his daughter-in-law follow his grandmother, so that his daughter-in-law dared to move...... I see that this kid has a bad stomach, and he doesn't use the medicine in his store to do bad things. Say, "How many daughters of good families have you used this medicine?"
"This official can rest assured, although I sell this, I never dare to do anything wrong. It's enough for me to have my daughter-in-law alone, with a good figure and good looks, and the rest of my life is enough......"
"You still know that it's your daughter-in-law! I think it's similar to the maid of a big family, even if you let her drink your footwashing water, she won't dare to refuse!" Chen Shi seemed to suddenly open up the conversation, and his words were full of gunpowder.
"How do you know...... The official is really joking, and the little ones don't dare to say anything else, it's definitely law-abiding. In any case, we can't let this ancestral skill fall into the hands of a small one. You Chunyao said as he spoke, and even raised his hand to swear: "Please rest assured, the little ones will never let the magic medicine of this store be criticized by others." ”
Friday listened to it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but say, "Hmph! Do you know that this medicine kills people?"
"Ah, how is it possible? The magic medicine in this pharmacy has been passed down for a hundred years, and no one has ever been eaten!" You Chunyao was terrified and took out a small bottle from his clothes, and explained to Fang Ming as he walked: "This is the medicine in this store, it is impossible to be poisonous!
Friday, Wu Liu, Feng Jiu, and Chen Shi saw that You Chunyao was about to move forward, and they all stepped forward to stop it.
Wu Liu was the closest, and was the first to scold: "What are you doing? You Chunyao! You stand here honestly for me, don't lean in front of adults!"
Zhu Li also whispered: "The case has just progressed, it is better to be careful." ”
"Don't worry, Uncle Zhu. I'm a treasure in the sect, and nothing will happen. Fang Ming said, showing a smile at Zhu Li. Then he waved his hand and asked a few people not to stop him.
"Look, my lord, this is already the strongest medicine in the small shop, you can find a random girl and give her some to try...... Bah, bah, bah, look at the little mouth. You Chunyao saw that everyone's faces changed, and hurriedly changed his words: "Adults can feed some livestock...... If the adults still don't believe it, the small ones can be tasted in person, so please believe the small ones!"
After You Chunyao finished speaking, he stuffed the medicine bottle in his hand into Fang Ming's hand. Regardless of whether Fang Ming was willing or not, he insisted on letting him test the medicine.
Fang Ming looked at the bottle in his hand, about the same size as his thumb. The entire bottle is covered with a layer of black porcelain, and the mouth of the bottle is corked with a wooden stopper. He twisted the cork slightly, pulled it out, and then brought the black bottle to his nose and sniffed it gently.
The bottle was full of bottles of unknown black ointment, and the smell was fragrant, and there was nothing wrong with it.
"It doesn't smell like anything, it's really not poison. Fang Ming said, glancing at Zhu Li.
Zhu Li also nodded in response.
"This is the most powerful medicine in the small shop, and the prescription for making medicine is a small guy who eats, please forgive the adults for the inconvenience of revealing it. The small one can only tell the adults that it is refined with several animals in estrus. You Chunyao saw that Fang Ming's face was flat, and immediately struck while the iron was hot, and hurriedly explained.
"Since the prescription can't be said, then the people who came to you to buy this kind of medicine in the recent past must still remember!" Fang Ming said, handing the black bottle to You Chunyao, intending to return it.
"This bottle of medicine can be kept by adults, this is the villain's heart. Adults walking the rivers and lakes must use it. You Chunyao rejected Fang Ming's return of the medicine and replied: "I can't remember it accurately, but every transaction, the small one is recorded." ”
"Bookkeeping, where is the account book?" Zhu Li asked one after another after hearing this.
"My lord, the ledger is here. Chen Shi said and took out a notebook from his arms.
Fang Ming no longer refused You Chunyao's good intentions, and indifferently put away the black bottle. Then I took the notebook and carefully flipped through all the transaction records since the beginning of this year.
More than five months of sale, the names of nearly a hundred people were recorded. Fang Ming, who was watching, looked dazed......
"I'm not very familiar with the situation in this county, Uncle Zhu, let's take a look!"
Zhu Li took the book and looked at them one by one. The first day, the second day of the new year, and the third day of the new year......
Soon, Zhu Li found out the clues.
"Mrs. Wang...... Mrs. Wang...... Which Wang matchmaker is this Wang matchmaker? Is it the Wang Guihua in the alley of Dongping Lane?"
"Master Shi is right, it is the matchmaker Wang Guihua. It seems that after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, she will come every few days. At first, I only bought female medicine, but later added male medicine, and each time the amount of medicine was quite a lot. You Chunyao replied.
"This Wang Guihua is old and doesn't abide by women's morals, what is she doing with this?" Feng Jiu was puzzled.
The little one also asked her, but she said that she ate it herself, and said that her man wanted her to have another child. ”
"What about their two sons, who are they still alive?" Feng Jiu raised his tone a little higher.
Fang Ming also listened to it for a moment, and said puzzledly: "Uncle Zhu, what's going on? Is there something wrong?"
"That's the case, this Wang Guihua is about forty years old, and he can be regarded as a matchmaker in Jinxi County. She and her man Shao Dazhuang had two sons, and now both sons are of the age of marriage, and the family affairs have not yet been settled. Zhu Li explained in detail: "At her age, it is unreasonable to buy this medicine......!
Fang Ming nodded and said, "Feng Jiu, Chen Shi, it seems that you have to work hard to make a trip." ”
"Whatever the adults say, this is what we should do. ”
"Yes! ”
Feng and Chen politely went out.
And the master, who continued to check the account book, leaned in front of Fang Ming again. The master pointed to a name on the ledger and showed it to Fang Ming.
This name Fang Ming is very familiar, it is none other than Zhao Tiehan's neighbor who lives next door - Yan Xiaoliu.
