Chapter 36: The Crisis of the Pharmacy
Qiao Xuan didn't say anything, he naturally changed the topic and told Tian Mi: "The house has been found, although it is not in the good area of Kuandajie, it is not too far from Delong Pharmaceutical Workshop. According to your meaning, the price has been pressed to the lowest, the contract has been signed, and you can move in tomorrow. ”
When did she say she was going to keep the price to a minimum? Although that's what she thinks in her heart. Tian Mi nodded, did not deny it out of her voice, smiled and hugged Tan's arm, and said jokingly: "Mother, we can move to a new house tomorrow, are you happy?" Gao is not happy? Hurry up and say you're happy. ”
Tan knocked on her head, smiled from ear to ear, and after choking a few times, he raised a weak smile and said dotingly: "How can there be, you have to call people, cough, call people, say happy." ”
Tian Mi smiled, smug and smug.
"I'm happy too." Tagawa didn't ask questions, and a bright smile appeared on his handsome little face.
Qiao Xuan looked at the happy appearance of this family, and couldn't help but laugh. With a slight smile, he quietly withdrew, leaving the place for this family of three.
He went out the door, into the next room, pushed open the window, and jumped down.
Tian Mi saw him go out, didn't make a sound, remembered something in a blink of an eye, and after a while, he found an excuse to go out.
She walked to the next room, knocked lightly on the door, and saw that there was no answer in the door, so she gently pushed the door open and walked in.
In the house, there was no one except for an open window that swayed in the evening breeze.
Seeing this, Tian Mi withdrew without saying a word, closed the door, and returned to her room as if nothing had happened.
Tian Mi returned to the house, and when she saw Tian Chuan setting up the dishes and chopsticks, she helped Tan to get up, and then sat down on one side.
"Brother Xuan said that he had eaten outside, so we didn't care about him." Tian Chuan said that he served rice for the Tan family first, then served rice for Tian Mi, and finally served his own. This series of actions is done naturally, and there is a smile on the handsome little face.
"Oh." Tian Mi nodded, looked at Tian Chuan with a smile, and felt much more comfortable in her tired heart.
Changguo men are inferior to women, only women serve men, and no man is willing to put down his body to take care of women, but Tian Chuan is so considerate of his family at a young age, how can it not make people's hearts warm?
Tan Shi also looked at his son with satisfaction, nodded in his heart, but coughed breathlessly, didn't eat a few bites of food, drank some soup and lay down again.
Tian Mi sighed almost invisibly, but she always maintained a quiet and well-behaved smile on her palm-sized little face, taking care of the Tan family while cleaning up this mess.
At night, the clean and empty canopy hangs the crescent moon, shining silver all over the earth, and everything is bathed in moonlight, reflecting the dappled light and shadow. The streets and alleys were silent, and the occasional barking of dogs in the courtyard on the street made the beggars huddled in the corners with thin mats tremble.
It was under such a clear night sky that a long figure walked leisurely through the long streets and alleys, and each time, at the right time, staggered with the night patrol, until he avoided the official errand at the gate of the tax department, and jumped into the courtyard lightly.
The tax department is a rather large courtyard, there are no pavilions, water pavilions, and clusters of flowers, only a few tall trees interspersed between the houses, which looks empty and solemn.
At this moment, the front yard was pitch black, and only a few guards yawned and stood bored in front of the archive building. They chatted lazily, not noticing a swift figure sneaking into the collection from the oblique side.
Qiao Xuan stood at the window on the second floor, looked down, and saw that the errand patrolling around was still far away from here, and the guards at the door did not find anything abnormal, so he put his mind at ease, took out the account book in his arms that he didn't know how many times, and read it again in front of the moonlight.
His fingers quickly flipped over the account page, and finally stopped at a page, and his rounded fingertips slowly slid over a line of words -- on the third day of the third month of the thirteenth year of Yuanqing, Ge Hongyan obtained the right to excavate a certain mountain Wujin ten miles outside Fuhua County with 90,000 taels of silver.
Qiao Xuan turned around and began to search for the file on the third day of the third month of the thirteenth year of Yuanqing on the rows of bookshelves.
Soon, he stopped in front of a row of bookshelves, pulled a wire from his bun, opened the lock on the drawer marked March, and took out the file inside.
On the third day of the third month of the thirteenth year of Yuanqing, approved by the tax supervisor Ruan Tiande, Ge Hongyan was allowed to set up a coal kiln in Hongtou Mountain outside Fuhua County with 8,000 taels of silver. When Qiao Xuan found out about this, his eyes fell on the account book spread out next to him for a long time, and the wind and clouds in his eyes flipped over.
How could that old fox of Nguyen Tien Duc make such an obvious mistake? There is no account office that will so blatantly miscalculate the amount, they are doing it with their hands and feet, and they will also make the two sides equal, and it is difficult for laymen to see the clues at a glance.
He slowly closed his eyes, his fingers closed, and grasped the account book tightly.
This account book was deliberately falsified. Moreover, it is so obvious that it is obvious that he is not taken seriously!
This is actually a warning, a resounding slap in the face!
This Dezhuang Mansion is a dense and huge net, how can he be an outsider, how can he be so easy to get involved in it? This time he stole a fake account book, which must have alarmed some people, and it is even more difficult to act again.
I thought that if this matter was over, I would be able to return as soon as possible, but now it seems that this road is still very long.
Qiao Xuan's mind was full of thoughts, but he did not fall behind in his actions, he put the account book in his arms, put the file back, and buckled the lock intact.
After doing this, he circled around the attic window, and after seeing the scene outside through the gap, he chose a direction and jumped down.
The front yard of the tax department is lifeless, but there is a place in the backyard that is brightly lit and full of people.
This courtyard is located in a couple, close to the back door, and it is especially convenient to come and go. At this moment, in the flower hall, the round table was full of all kinds of wine and food, and three middle-aged men were sitting opposite each other.
The one on the left, who was the Wu steward of Renhui Pharmacy, got up and poured wine for the other two, and said with a smile: "Wu originally wanted to invite the two of them to go to Jinfu Building. Coincidentally, the master said that he recently got a 30-year-old Northland Red Lady and invited us to come here to share it. Lin Qi is in charge, this time I am blessed by you, haha. ”
Steward Lin Qi on the right seat smiled when he heard this: "Where is it, it is the two of us who have been stained with the light of the master." ”
Zhou Zhangji, who was in the main seat, waved his hand, and after a few modest sentences, he started his chopsticks first. After seeing him drop the chopsticks, the two started eating one after another.
After three rounds of drinking, the three men who were a little strange suddenly became familiar with each other, and their words became much more casual.
At this time, Steward Wu began to get to the point, and he said to Steward Lin Qi: "Brother Yan drinks refreshingly, and has an appetite for me, and we brothers will not beat around the bush." I know that you are going to import a large number of medicinal herbs, and we at Renhui Pharmacy are also willing to do so. It's not that I blow, in this Fuhua County, there is one who can have an advantage over our Renhui Pharmacy, and I can't find it at all. It is Delong, which is known as Fuhua's No. 1 Pharmacy, and we have also compared it. It's a perfect fit for you to work with us. Besides, our brothers, the price is also easy to discuss, what do you think? ”
