Chapter 118: Medicinal Herb Business with the Military
"How is she?" Granny Ji was obviously a little confused. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Actually, it's none of her business, it's just because she knows the living habits of the blood shadow and said it unintentionally, and this makes the people in the villa know about the blood shadow's book, so so many things have happened." Shum Wenhan looked confident.
Shi Guzhuang asked, "What is the use of this book for these people?" ”
"This starts with a business that Blood Shadow recently discussed, what is the purpose of the alliance between the Night Shadow Garden and the Valley of the Shadows?"
"Of course, it's to win the military's medicinal herb supply business." Shi Guzhuang replied without even thinking about it.
"But now that there is no war, does the military need so many medicinal materials?"
At this time, Shi Guzhuang said with a smile: "Cen Gongzi doesn't know, although on the surface the people in the military are all young and middle-aged, they rarely get sick, if there is no war, they basically don't need to take medicine, but the army is strictly managed, and soldiers have to train every day, so that some people will be injured in training, this is one aspect." ”
Cen Wenhan nodded, and Shi Guzhuang continued: "On the other hand, the military quartermaster in the army must prepare medicinal materials at any time in case of emergency, you must know that there are more than 2.7 million soldiers in the country, will there be fewer medicinal materials according to this number?" ”
Cen Wenhan was taken aback when he heard this number, he didn't expect that there were so many soldiers, Shi Guzhuang said again: "It is impossible for medicinal materials not to be bad for a long time, the management of these in the army is very strict, and the medicinal materials that have been put for a few years will flow out of the army and be sold to the people, if we buy these medicinal materials back at a low price, this is another considerable business." ”
"Why do you want to buy back the medicinal herbs that are about to be scrapped?" Cen Wenhan was confused.
"This is because although these medicinal materials have been left for a long time, the medicinal effect has not disappeared, but it is a little weaker, and we can sell them at a low price in the market after we buy the ashes, because there are still many merchants who will buy these medicinal materials at a low price." Shi Guzhuang seems to be very proficient in this business.
At this time, Cen Wenhan understood how valuable this business was, "No wonder my mother-in-law is willing to give me 100,000 taels of silver when she opens her mouth, it seems that there is really a lot of oil and water here." ”
Granny Ji said angrily: "You kid knows money, if you dare to bully my family Qin'er again, I won't let you get ten taels of silver." ”
"......" Cen Wenhan didn't expect that his neck was secretly reined by Granny Ji, "Mother-in-law, don't be angry, I won't mess with her in the future, then again, these people arranged for someone to deliberately approach Diecui in order to get this book in the hands of the blood shadow." ”
"But why did they kill the Blood Shadow again?" Shi Guzhuang didn't figure it out either.
"This is also a sentence that Zhou Sheng said to make me understand the reason, once the blood shadow collected this book fell out because he was drunk, Zhou Sheng picked it up and looked through a few pages without knowing what to do, and was scolded by the blood shadow, which shows that the blood shadow cares about this book very much."
"You mean they want to steal this book by stacking it?" Shi Guzhuang asked.
"Yes, until something happened later that they had to speed up the progress of stealing this book."
"What's the matter?" Granny Ji and Shi Guzhuang both asked eagerly.
Cen Wenhan thought for a moment, "After the failure of the assassination of Ji Xiangyun in Youran Valley and the internal situation there was dug up, they decided to take a risk, using Stacked Cui to trick the blood shadow into drinking the kind of wine that can make people lose their martial arts, and then steal the notebook. ”
Shi Guzhuang interjected: "Aren't these people afraid of being discovered? ”
"This is where they are smart, they know that the amount of alcohol in the Blood Shadow is poor, and people will get drunk if they drink a few sips, but the Blood Shadow doesn't drink alcohol on weekdays, so they added something very fragrant to the wine, so that the Blood Shadow couldn't help but take a few sips."
Granny Ji shook her head, "Blood Shadow doesn't like to drink very much, and if he can, he won't stick a drop of water at home." ”
"Yes, but just one drop of this wine is enough." Cen Wenhan said confidently.
"Why does Cen Gongzi think so?" Shi Guzhuang thought that Cen Wenhan's words were too flawed.
Cen Wenhan smiled and said: "Zhou Sheng fed the dog with steamed buns dipped in Diecui's blood, but the dog became a dog plague, and the road almost didn't move." ”
Granny Ji and Shi Guzhuang nodded at this time and said, "Reasonable." ”
"But Blood Shadow has never loved wine, so why does he still drink it?" Shi Guzhuang still felt that Cen Wenhan's words were a little unreliable.
Cen Wenhan nodded and said: "First of all, Diecui doesn't know martial arts, so it's the same for her to drink this wine, it just feels delicious, and she is the person that Blood Shadow trusts the most, it is estimated that she persuaded Blood Shadow to please her master, and Blood Shadow swallowed this cup of wine that killed him." ”
"Why do you think Diecui drank this wine first?" Shi Guzhuang still did not agree with Cen Wenhan's statement.
"That's because there was a woman in the love talk I overheard that day, what did you say, do you still have that fragrant wine? She also wanted to have a few more drinks. I deduced from this that Diecui drank this wine first, and it was because Diecui had drunk it that Blood Shadow drank it with confidence. ”
"It's all your speculation, isn't it?" Shi Guzhuang was also a little convinced of Cen Wenhan's statement at this time.
"Yes, I also deduced that I only thought that these people would be unfavorable to Mr. Shi when I came here, so I rushed to Mr. Shi when I thought of this, and sure enough, ......" The rest of Cen Wenhan needless to say.
Granny Ji nodded, "Master Cen is reasonable, now let's think that's the case, I think Mr. Shi should hide this booklet well, and be more careful himself, they will keep an eye on you." ”
"Don't worry, they won't be able to find the booklet even if they kill me." Shi Guzhuang looked very confident.
Granny Ji said suspiciously, "Didn't we see you take the booklet out of your arms in the afternoon?" ”
"That's when I looked through the booklet today, He Hu came to me, and I casually put the booklet in my arms."
"Who is He Hu?" Cen Wenhan had never heard of this person.
"It's one of my deputies, and he's helping me with a lot of things in the villa on weekdays."
"Do you know where that Liu Si went?" Cen Wenhan will not let go of any detail.
At this time, Shi Guzhuang was stunned for a moment, "What does Gongzi Cen mean......?" ”
Granny Ji interjected at this time: "There are ghosts in the villa, and Mr. Shi should not let go of any detail." ”
"Mother-in-law mean tell me not to trust anyone?" Shi Guzhuang now understands what Cen Wenhan meant.
Seeing that Shi Guzhuang understood what she meant, Granny Ji called Cen Wenhan away, while Shi Guzhuang sat alone and pondered something.
After being discharged from the hospital, Granny Ji pulled Cen Wenhan aside and asked, "Cen Gongzi is suspicious of the people around Shi Guzhuang?" ”
"Mother-in-law, do you remember why so many people knew about Mr. Shi when he was looking for the blood shadow notebook in the villa, and I just saw that Mr. Shi is a careful person, he won't fail to notice this."
Granny Ji turned her head to look at Cen Wenhan and didn't speak, it seemed that she thought of something at this time, but Cen Wenhan was still a little afraid when she saw Granny Ji staring at her, it turned out that the old woman's two eyes were still glowing green.
At this time, Granny Ji also noticed Cen Wenhan's expression, "Cen Gongzi go back and rest, and I'll talk about it tomorrow if I have something." ”
At dawn, there was a commotion in the courtyard that woke Cen Wenhan up, and after he came to the courtyard, Zhou Sheng also came to look for him, "Master Cen, someone found a body in the well of the villa. ”
"Who is it?"
"That missing Liu Si's."
Cen Wenhan followed Zhou Sheng to the courtyard where he hid last time, and at this time, there were already many people standing inside, and Qiu Shiying was conducting an autopsy. Everyone saw Cen Wenhan coming, and let him in.
Soon Qiu Shiying reported to Granny Ji, "The deceased Liu Si, the time of death cannot be inferred because he was soaked in water, but the fatal injury was killed by a heavy blow to the back." ”
"Did anyone see him yesterday?" Cen Wenhan asked.
Everyone looked at each other for a while and said they didn't know, and then Cen Wenhan asked, "Why isn't Mr. Shi here?" ”
Zhou Sheng looked around and said, "I'll take a look!" With that, he went out.
Not long after Zhou Sheng came back and shook his head at Cen Wenhan, Cen Wenhan turned to look at Granny Ji, at this time Granny Ji knew that the matter was serious, and she immediately arranged for the people in the villa to look around.
At noon, Shi Guzhuang was not found, and at this time, Cen Wenhan looked at Zhou Sheng on the side and asked secretly, "Is there anyone outside Mr. Shi Villa?" ”
"Who?" Zhou Sheng felt a little inexplicable about Cen Wenhan's words.
"Hello, don't you understand?"
