Chapter 70: The Merchant

When Jin Qiwu arrived at the school, several members of the Jin family had already waited there.

As soon as he entered the door, he knelt on the ground and said to the father on the seat: "Dad, I will go to the border city, the Sun family is in Yuanli Town, the family has a great business, we can't do it, but I don't believe that he can still reach the border city, within seven days, I will rush back with the ingredients on the formula." ”

The rice paper with the recipe on it was lost, but he still remembered several of the ingredients, but as soon as he walked into one of the pharmacies, he was kicked out before he could open his mouth.

One, two, and three are like this, and Jin Qiwu knows that even if he has silver taels in his hand, he can't buy them in the town.

Old Man Jin didn't say the words to blame him, but said, "Li Da's donkey cart is outside, I'll give you five days." San Lang, if you can't come back within five days, I'm afraid the Jin family will be scattered. ”

On the way here, the youngest daughter told him about the contract, and the old man Jin knew that it was wrong, and when he saw San Lang looking like a wolf, he already knew the result without him saying it explicitly.

Jin Qiwu nodded solemnly, did not leave immediately, but turned his head and asked the little sister: "You carefully describe the plant boy on the formula, and describe it carefully." ”

If it weren't for the long journey, Jin Qiwu would have thought about bringing his little sister there.

Jin Yun didn't understand: "Why do you want to go far?" There is everything in the back mountains, so why run to the outer city? ”

"Silly girl, you must not go to the back mountain unless you have to, if you are not careful, this life will have to stay on the mountain." Although he had never experienced it, he had seen people carried down from the back mountain, whose bodies were bitten by fierce beasts, and whose bodies were stained with blood, and whose roads were even sprinkled with blood.

The man did not leave on the spot, the flesh on his waist was gone, but the man was still awake, and kept howling with his mouth open.

That tragic voice, Jin Qiwu can still remember, the moment he saw it, he couldn't stand bending over and vomiting, and he didn't sleep peacefully for several nights.

As long as the harvest is bad, some people take the risk to go up the mountain in the hope of catching some wild animals.

The weather is not beautiful, the harvest in the fields is not good, the beasts in the back mountains are naturally hungry and full, and the people who go up the mountains to hunt are simply the food sent to the door.

Not to mention half of it, two out of ten people who went up the mountain failed to get out, and they didn't even have a chance to enter the ground.

It is precisely because of this that the faces of several villages on the side began to change color after talking about it.

In the eyes of the rest of the Jin family, the same is true, compared to the back mountain, the far away border city is their first choice.

Jin Yun didn't say much, she said the characteristics of the plant, because she knew that even if Jin Qiwu went to the border city, it would be useless, and she had to go to the back mountain.

The peculiar herb that grew by the water shrank within three hours of being picked.

Even if you go to the border city, you can't use the herb you brought back.

But Jin Yun didn't say it, just because as soon as she opened her mouth, she couldn't explain why she knew.

Even now, she hadn't explained how the plants she first refined came about.

Jin Qiwu left with the task, and no one let the rest of the Jin family relax.

Since coming here, Jin Qishuang has been standing in the corner with his arms crossed and has not said a word.

Just by listening, he can understand the general situation, and he can't help but feel a trace of impatience in his heart, the difficult things that happened in the Jin family came one after another, and it didn't take long for him to stop, and what he was most afraid of now was dragging.

"The Sun family is not small, there are three major families in the town, Kong, Bai, and Sun. The Sun family has made a windfall from their ancestors, and all their children and grandchildren are capable people, if it weren't for the people in the court of the Kong and Bai families, I am afraid that the Sun family would be the only one. Jin Qishuang told everything he knew, he didn't want to know how the Jin family offended the Sun family, he just wanted his father to know the powerful relationship here, but don't drag down the family.

"The eldest girl of the Shifu where Yang Xianghan is located is married to the second young master of the Sun family. Dad, if it is not difficult, we can let Yang Xianghan build a bridge, introduce the Sun family, and talk about things well, after all, countrymen like us can't compare with them. ”

How could Old Man Jin not know, but he didn't look down on the Sun family's style, and he didn't want to be at the bottom.

If he is willing to bow his head, why should the Sun family be afraid.

"Wait." Old Man Jin looked out the door, and there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Because he knew that no matter how bad it was, it was just to hand over the formula to the Sun family, but he didn't want to, Old Man Jin once thought that he had no ambition in his heart and was willing to live in the field for the rest of his life.

But the recipe brought by the youngest daughter was like a drop of water falling into the calm water, causing a ripple.

In the end, I am still unwilling.

"Brother Jin, good news, good news." As soon as there was a voice outside, I saw a man in a dark robe step in.

When Jin Qishuang saw the comer, a smile appeared on his calm face, and he stepped forward and clasped his hands: "Brother Zhao." ”

Zhao Rui saw that there were many people standing in the house, and said, "Brother Jin, are you disturbed?" ”

Jin Qishuang waved his hand again and again: "It's all my own family, how can I bother." ”

"That's good, Brother Jin, the matter you dragged me to inquire about last time has already come to fruition." Zhao Rui was about to speak, but was interrupted by Jin Qishuang raising his hand.

He said, "Brother Zhao, let's go into the back room to talk." ”

After speaking, he didn't say hello to the Jin family, so he hurriedly welcomed the people into the back room.

said that it was the inner room, but it was just a door, and when Jin Qishuang and the two talked inside, it still came out intermittently.

Jin Yun's ear power is better, even if she doesn't deliberately pay attention to it, she still hears the words inside clearly.

These three of hers really have a lot of plans, but they are also smart people.

Jin Qishuang is not young, he is already a child, he has participated in the imperial examination many times, but he has not been able to show his talent in high school, maybe he knows that he does not have that ability, and he has entrusted a lot of relationships to find relationships in the past year, and he hopes to be attached to which everyone is a businessman.

This time, Zhao Rui came to the door, and he also inquired about a relationship, and came to inform him.

And Jin Qishuang's idea of wanting to be a businessman has never been mentioned by his family once.

If Jin Qishuang is a businessman, he must leave the title of Tongsheng and be banned from the imperial examination for life.

To put it more simply, he gave up the Jin family's efforts for so many years.

I'm afraid that's why he didn't dare to speak.

Jin Yun didn't understand very much, she could feel Old Man Jin's gradually stiffened body, he was holding the handle on the Taishi's chair, and the meridians on the back of his hand were protruding, obviously using a lot of strength to endure it.

The Jin family, or the old man Jin, also knows that his third son's ability is limited, but he is unwilling to give up in his heart, even if he fails in the imperial examination again and again, he still has not complained, and even has always supported it.

This is also something that Jin Yun can't understand, since he knows that the possibility of success is very small, why do he have to insist?
