Chapter VII

As the saying goes, it's hard to get started.

The ancients were honest and did not anger me, Yao Yanyu, as soon as the Food and Drug Administration was established, the first decree issued was: all major pharmacies and pharmacies must register with the Food and Drug Administration, take the initiative to accept the supervision of the Food and Drug Administration, and receive a document jointly issued by the local government and the Food and Drug Administration.

It is said that this is not a difficult matter, because she only made it clear that if these people take the initiative to come to the door to register, they can get a legal paperwork, and they don't need a penny.

But when this order was issued, it was like a stone in the sea, and Lord Yao sat firmly in the Food and Drug Administration for a month, and he didn't see a single person from a pharmacy or pharmacy come to handle the paperwork.

A few of the Xiangzhi who went to work with Yao Yanyu every day were angry, because they said: "These people are too hateful!" I don't even take our wife in my eyes. ”

Wumei also said angrily: "It's better to talk to Hou Ye and let Hou Ye cure them." ”

"Besides, Master Hou hasn't seen anyone in the past two days." Xiang Zhi flattened his mouth, at the beginning, Hou Ye could still come back every night to accompany Mrs. to use you, these days it will only be in the middle of the night, Mrs. didn't say anything, but these days the meal is obviously a little absent-minded, as a close service person, Xiang Zhi and a few girls are really anxious.

Wumei sighed faintly and said, "Hey! I thought Master Hou had come to accompany his wife this time. ”

"How is that possible? Without the emperor's decree, how could the Hou Ye leave Beijing? Don't be stupid. Xiang Xue glared at Ume and heard the lady calling inside, so she hurriedly turned around and went in.

But it was getting late, and Yao Yanyu told them to pack their things and prepare to go home.

In the carriage home, the Xiangzhi didn't dare to say anything, and accidentally talked about business, which made the lady unhappy. Yao Yanyu leaned on the carriage and pondered for a long time, and then asked Xiangzhi: "How long has our Food and Drug Administration been open?" ”

Xiang Xue hurriedly replied: "If you go back to Mrs., it will be exactly a month since Ming'er." ”

Yao Yanyu nodded and said, "Well, it's been a month!" It's time. ”

Xiangzhi and Wumei looked at each other, not knowing what Mrs. Lu Dao meant, but they didn't dare to ask more.

On the second day, the Yao court announced the second decree: the Food and Drug Administration will fully take over the medical lawsuit in Jiangnan Province. That is to say, all lawsuits related to medicine, the Food and Drug Administration must interrogate. In particular, ordinary people who have been harmed by medicine can directly file a complaint with the Food and Drug Administration, and the Food and Drug Administration will make every effort to make decisions for the people. If the person accused is indeed guilty, the Food and Drug Administration will reward the plaintiff with an additional 20 taels of silver.

Now Jiangning City is really lively!

On the day of the promulgation of this decree, the entrance of the Food and Drug Administration was crowded with people, and there were more than 20 copies of the pleadings received that day, and more than a dozen people had no money to write complaints, so they came directly to complain.

Yao Yanyu was not ambiguous, she took the pleadings on the spot, and ordered someone to write a pleadings for those who had no money to write a complaint and include it. That night, Yao Fengge asked worriedly: "If you do this, all the pharmacies and pharmacists in Jiangning City have become criminals!" ”

Yao Yanyu sneered: "It's because they don't go to the Tao, and now it's no wonder that I whip them to the Tao." ”

Yao Fengge said uneasily: "In this way, you have to bring more people with you when you go to the yamen every day." ”

"Sister, don't worry." Yao Yanyu smiled softly. Not to mention that Bai Koyuguo'er beside her will not leave an inch, just to say that there are not dozens of people by Wei Zhang's side but more than a dozen, who wants to harm themselves secretly, I'm afraid it's not that simple.

The sisters here were discussing things in the warm and coaxing room, and several pharmacists in Jiangning City had to get together to discuss countermeasures.

Things have reached this point, and they are about to tear their faces, and these few pharmacists are rich and rich, but they don't dare to offend the government easily. After all, this is an imperial society, and it is so easy for the imperial court to pinch a pharmacist to death.

"Haven't you forgotten about the Bo family?" A man in his fifties sat at the top, looking at everyone with heavy eyes.

"That's what Jin Lao said." A middle-aged man about forty years old sitting next to the old man raised his hand and stroked his beard, nodded and said, "We naturally know the strength of the Yao family. This goddess doctor is Ning Hou's wife againβ€”let's lose her face like this, and it is natural for her to be annoyed and angry. ”

An old man in a blue brocade robe who was sitting at the bottom of his hand snorted impatiently: "What's the use of talking about this now? I heard that she received more than 40 complaints today! Who of you here can guarantee that your shop will not be sued? Those Diao people heard that they had money to take, but they were not allowed to bite people like mad dogs? ”

"Just by their biting? Isn't this time a matter of discussion? One of the men put down the teacup in displeasure and looked at the rest of the room.

It was a spacious and elegant room with six people seated around a carved mahogany table.

Jin Lao, the big pharmacist Jin Boying. When the Bo family fell, the Jin family made the greatest profit. Almost annexed more than half of the Bo family's business.

Of course, this matter is also in the case of Yao Yanyi's deliberate concession He had such an opportunity, Yao Yanyi's idea was that he had just made a medicine field, Yao Yanyu had just been valued by the emperor, and the Yao family's meddling in the medicinal material business was afraid that it would cause dissatisfaction among the opponents, and it was easy to expose the fact that he had cleaned up the Bo family, so he quietly withdrew after cleaning up the Bo family, and let the major pharmacists carve up the Bo family's industry.

Sitting on Jin Boying's left hand is his son and daughter's in-law Li Kun, the Li family was originally made of raw silk, but Li Kun is not the eldest son in the family, and he has no part in managing the family business, and later married Jin Boying and joined the ranks of pharmaceutical merchants. In the past two years, he has been promoted by Jin Boying, and he can be regarded as making a lot of money.

The young man sitting next to Jin Boying is surnamed Huang Xingyi, the Huang family is in the ship business, and the foundation of their shipbuilding is ancestral. It is said that business is very good, and orders are scheduled for the following year. He has only joined the ranks of pharmaceutical companies in recent years, but because of his sufficient capital, he can be said to be on top, and his status in the medicine store is definitely above Li Kun.

Although the remaining three cannot be compared with these three, they are also big pharmacists in the Jiangnan area, each operating five, six, seven or eight pharmacies, and six have joined forces, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have monopolized the pharmaceutical industry in Jiangnan.

Several people discussed it babblingly, and finally Li Kun sighed and asked Jin Boying: "Or, let's take the initiative to report to the Food and Drug Administration?" ”

"Ball!" One of the people who started couldn't help but slap the table, "This girl is clearly trying to force us to death, go to report tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow you have to wait for her to draw taxes!" I dare to say that after this start, we have to pay homage every year, and if there is less filial piety, it will be unlucky! ”

"And what do you want to do?" Huang Xingyi frowned and asked.

"What to do! Anyway, we are already not cooperating, it is better to be hard to the end! Get this girl out of Jiangning City! We don't care what she wants to do in the imperial capital, but the medicine in Jiangning City is still our world! Besides, her old son is no longer the governor of Liangjiang! Why should we look at her face! The man cursed, turned his head and spat on the ground.

"That's what you mean?" Kim Bo-young's heavy gaze swept over everyone's faces.

Everyone hesitated for a moment, and then nodded lightly or heavily.

"Well, since everyone wants to carry it hard, then we also have to think about the future." Kim Bo-young said.

"Naturally, we are all looking forward to the old horse." The person sitting at the bottom of the hand was busy slapping the past and slapping a sycophant.

Then someone immediately chimed in: "That is, haven't all the major events of our medicine store over the years been made by Jin Lao?" We all listen to you. ”

Jin Boying looked left and right again, and Li Kun and Huang Xingyi both nodded.

"Well, since everyone is willing to listen to me, then I'll say a few important things." Jin Boying coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said, "First of all, after you go back, you will first select a few loyal and eloquent people to prevent the Food and Drug Administration from coming to take people." ”

"Take people?" Someone immediately got angry, "Take whom?" She dares! ”

"What would she not dare? Even if there's no mess in your shop, now that someone has sued, you have to summon and ask for a pass! Since you have to go through the motions, you must guard against the subordinates talking nonsense and accidentally falling into the trap of that woman! ”

"That's what Jin Lao said." Li Kun immediately nodded, "We have to guard against this." ”

"Then, let's get ready to stock up." After Jin Boying finished speaking, he sighed softly. Hoarding, in fact, is not what the merchant is willing to do, buy and sell well without closing the door or something - how much does it affect making money?

"That's right! We are closed for adjustments. As it gets colder and colder today, it looks like there will be a snowstorm soon. This winter's weather is so cold that there are 30% more people than in previous years...... If none of these people can buy medicineβ€”huh! I'll see what she does! ”

Immediately someone objected: "Is this possible?" He's a miracle doctor. A silver needle has saved countless people, and I heard that she also brought 200 female doctors to Jiangning to give lectures for the Jiangning Branch of the Chinese Medical Museum. There are so many doctors in Jiangning City, are you still afraid that the common people will not be able to see the disease? ”

"There is a saying that it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice! No matter how powerful Doctor Yao is, there is no medicine in Jiangning City, what else can she do? It seems that she is the only one who returns to the Taiyi Divine Needle, right? She treats the people of Jiangning City alone? Tired of her! ”

"Moreover, I heard that this Yao Divine Doctor is pregnant, and I can't stand it."

"Really?"

"Eighty percent of them are true. Otherwise, Ning Hou also came to Jiang Ning? ”

"Isn't it because of pirates?"

"Pirate ......"

Speaking of pirates, these gentlemen immediately became interested, and you talked about it word by word, and forgot for a moment what they were sitting here for.

Yao Yanyu waited for another two days, and after all the complaints in his hand were in every pharmacy in Jiangning City, he borrowed troops from the prefect to go to each pharmacy to get people.

Of course, no one can be convicted of guilt until there is a trial. Yao's court sentenced her to be a person who understands the law, and her reason for taking people is very simple: someone accused your pharmacy of seeking ill-gotten wealth and harming people's lives, so the Food and Drug Administration came to take people back for interrogation.

The major pharmacists have been prepared, and the people who are taken by the Food and Drug Administration are loyal, reliable, and eloquent, so naturally they will not send the handle of the pharmacy to the hands of the Yao Yuan.

However, they still misguessed the chess sentence of the Yao Yuan - the person was taken, but the Yao Yuan judge did not rush to interrogate, but put everyone in the prison of the government office.

And as soon as I locked it in, there was no movement, as if I had forgotten about arraignment.

At first, the pharmacists were still thinking about how to hit the joints on the other side of the government and spend some money to get people out and finish the job. Who knew that Lu Dao found the prefect, and the prefect said that the Food and Drug Administration would not open the trial, and he would not be able to interfere in this matter, so it was better to wait.

So we had to wait. This waited until the twenty-third day of the lunar month.

It's been a small year, and the right-hand men of the various pharmaceutical companies are still locked up in prison, although they are slaves, they are all capable minions, and there is nothing wrong with it, so they can't be allowed to spend the New Year in prison, right? These people can do the work of preventing disasters for the owner, at least they are dragging their families, those daughters-in-law and children come to the master every day to wipe their eyes and tears, this year can't pass?

Moreover, there was a small pharmacist who actually sent his cousin to be tried because he was afraid that something bad would happen, but the cousin never came out, and the owner was almost forced to hang himself by his uncle and aunt, and he couldn't wait to go in and exchange his cousin back.

The pharmacists led by Jin Lao once again couldn't sit still.

Everyone got together again while they were young, and discussed how to get their own people out of prison first. Everything will wait until the New Year.

But the initiative in this matter is in the hands of Yao Yanyu, they have already gone to the prefect to find out the news, the prefect said that the Yao Yuan has the emperor's holy decree in his hand, but any lawsuit related to medicine, the prefect yamen must be tried together with the Food and Drug Administration. The prefect accepted the benefits of the pharmacists, so he naturally asked when the Yao Yuan Judgment would be heard, and the clinker Yao Yuan Judgment only gave him one word: Wait.

Waiting for whom? When? What are you waiting for? The prefect's heart is like a mirror, but he just can't say more and ask more.

Because although Yao Yuan's judgment didn't say anything, he had already put the prefect and those medicine merchants together in his heart. If you ask, it's a vain question, and if you say it, it's a vain thing, maybe you have to be sentenced by the Yao Yuan to An for the crime of collusion between officials and businessmen, and a secret performance will be sent to the capital, and the black gauze hat on your head will not be saved.

The pharmacists discussed for a long time, and finally elected Huang Xingyi as a representative to visit the Yao Yuan judge.

What is the reason, Huang Xingyi is now the vice president of the Jiangning Pharmaceutical Chamber of Commerce, he goes, his identity is gone, his face is gone, and even if the woman surnamed Yao makes any request, he can agree for the gentlemen of the medicine store. Besides, you can't let Jin Lao come forward, right? How can there be a reason for a veteran to come out as soon as the war starts?

Huang Xingyi took advantage of the reason for the New Year to prepare a generous gift, and went to Yao Yanyu's residence in a black lacquered oil-walled car with good words.

It just so happened that Wei Zhang was also there on this day, and the New Year was approaching, Yao Yanyu didn't go to the yamen, but only watched the maids try on new clothes at home, pick out jewelry, and prepare for the New Year. Next to him, Ling Xiao was also trying on a small shoulder of white tiger skin and red brocade, the little guy's white and round bun face was lined with red brocade and became more and more pink and cute, Yao Yanyu was very happy to see it.

While talking and laughing, someone went back and forth in front of him, saying that the third master of the Huang family in Jiangning was here, saying that he had something important to ask to see his wife.

Yao Yanyu smiled and said lightly to the visitor: "If it is a private matter, please ask Master Hou to meet the guest, and if it is a business matter, please ask the Ming'er Food and Drug Administration to say it." ”

The person who came answered, turned around and went to the front to pass the word.

Huang Xingyi's visit to the Yao family's private residence naturally could not be said to be a business matter, so the next person went back to Weizhang.

A few days ago, Tanglin had just been robbed by pirates, and the people suffered serious losses, but the Donglin Sword Lake Sailor was extremely sloppy, and the 5,000 sailors actually let the pirates of less than 1,000 people rob and leave, but they just stared dryly. Because of this incident, Wei Houye's heart was very depressed, and he couldn't wait to pull the main general of the Sword Lake Water Master out of the water division and cut it down.

So when someone went back and forth to Jiangning and asked to see the third master of the Huang family, Wei Zhang glared at the man angrily, and asked unhappily: "Which Huang family?" Is it the Huang family that built the ship? ”

The person who came hurriedly replied: "It's their home." ”

Wei Zhang silently gritted his back molars, thinking that he was trying to settle accounts with the grandson of this family, but he sent it to the door.

So when Huang Xingyi saw Ning Hou with a black face appear in front of him, he only felt inexplicable, thinking that this seems to be the first time I have seen this legendary god of war, right? I didn't offend him, did I? What does he mean by this cannibalistic look?

But no matter what, Wei Zhang is the Hou Ye, Huang Xingyi is a businessman, even if the Huang family is rich and rivals the country, he doesn't dare to be presumptuous when he sees the Hou Ye, and he also understands in his heart that if it weren't for the Food and Drug Administration, how could he have entered the residence of Ning Hou and his wife with his identity? So Huang Sanye hurriedly lifted the corner of his robe and knelt down: "The grass people visit the Hou Ye and say hello to the Hou Ye." ”

Wei Zhang walked in front of him, went directly to the upper seat and sat down, and then stared at Huang Xingyi deadly, Fang said lightly: "Get up and speak." ”

"Yes. Xie Houye. Huang Xingyi stood up at this time, and when he came, the momentum that was puffed up by several pharmacists had already disappeared, and under the cold gaze of Ning Houye, he only stared at the purple passion flower on the carpet, so he couldn't hold back his trembling legs and did not kneel on the ground again.

There is no way, this man is too strong, even if he crisscrosses the business and creates his own family business, he will not be able to stand firm in the face of this strong evil spirit.

"Your Huang family is now your master?" Wei Zhang asked coldly.

"No, ah, back to Master Hou, now that the father of the grass people is in charge, and there is an eldest brother here, it is not the turn of the grass people." Huang Xingyi replied worriedly.

Wei Zhang frowned and snorted coldly, and asked unhappily: "It's not your business, so what are you going to do?" ”

"Grass People...... Seeing that the New Year is coming, the grass people want to send some New Year's goods to Hou Ye......" Huang Xingyi plucked up his courage, but in the end he didn't dare to say anything about the Food and Drug Administration.

Wei Zhang sneered and said, "Forget about the New Year's goods." Since you are here, preach a message for your father for me. If he dares to do business with pirates again and privately sell them shipbuilding equipment and drawings, I will ask the emperor to ask your family for the crime of being a thief! ”

"This ...... Where does this begin? Father ......" Huang Xingyi knelt on the ground with a puff and begged: "Ask the Hou Ye for mercy, I'm afraid someone is planting a false accusation in this matter, right?" We've never done anything like this in our family! ”

"Humph!" Wei Zhang raised his hand and slapped the table, and suddenly stood up, "You just said that your family is not your business, and now you stand up to pack tickets?" You still say that I was going to frame you? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare! Hou Ye spared his life, the grass people did not mean that......" Huang Xingyi suddenly sweated like pulp, and his whole body was cold.

"Cherish this opportunity." Wei Zhang put down this sentence and left.

Huang Xingyi knelt on the ground for a long time before he exhaled a long breath, and tried to get up from the ground but felt weak in his hands and feet, and his body seemed to have been sucked away from his bones.

Until a young guy entered the door and asked with a smile: "May I ask if you are the third master of the Huang family?" Huang Xingyi relieved his breath.

He looked at the little guy blankly, and asked in a dumb voice, "It's me, what's the matter with the little brother?" ”

"My wife said, we can't accept the New Year's goods you brought, I have sent someone to load the car for you, remember to check it when you leave later." After the little guy finished speaking, he took two steps back and stood at the door.

Huang Xingyi had a mouthful of blood in his throat, stood up with his breath and stumbled away.

The third master of the royal family failed to succeed, and Jin Lao was very depressed.

What made Jin Lao even more depressed was that he repeatedly asked Huang San what was the situation when he went to Yao Di at that time, but Huang San only had a constipated face and couldn't say a word, except shaking his head or shaking his head.

"What the hell are we going to do?" Jin Lao was anxious.

"Third Master Huang? You have something to say! The person next to him was also anxious.

Huang Xingyi sighed helplessly, looked at the roof and said, "Go to the Food and Drug Administration." ”

"Just gave in?" Someone is not reconciled.

"It's like, we've held out for so long, and we have given in so easily?"

"If it doesn't work, let her lock people up, I'll see how long she can be locked up!"

"Can't we bail out on silver?"

After some gossip, Li Kun sighed: "Why don't we go find Third Master Su?" ”

"Third Master Su? Who is it? Jin Boying frowned, although he is not from Jiangning, but after all, he has lived here for more than 20 years, and he has never heard of such a person in Jiangning City.

"It's Doctor Yao's brother-in-law. Su Yuxiang, the third master of Dingbei Hou Mansion. Li Kun said.

"That's right. I heard that the eldest daughter of the Yao family returned to Jiangning with her husband and children, but I forgot about it later. Kim Boying nodded slowly.

In fact, I didn't forget, I heard that Yao Yuanzhi's eldest daughter married a straw bag, and the third brother of Dingbei Hou was a drunken man who lived on his wife's dowry industry. And Jin Lao, who prides himself on being a pivotal figure in Jiangning City, feels that there is no need to bow down to a young woman.

"I heard that this Third Master Su likes women." Immediately someone had an idea.

Jin Boying sneered indifferently: "Then go to the nineteenth floor to find him two stunning beauties soon?" That is, a matter of a few hundred taels of silver. ”

"Who's going to do that?" Li Kun looked at the three pharmacists opposite, he and Jin Boying boasted of their identities, so they naturally didn't want to do such a thing.

"I'll go, it's not easy." A lean old man in his fifties on the other side smiled obscenely.

Jin Boying immediately nodded: "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you." ”

------Off topic------
