499 Indemnification
Jiang Chuanchuan and the Ninth Princess listened to what they had done in the early autumn, Jiang Chuan's eyes widened, "He lost the medical book that the sixth aunt borrowed from his aunt?" ”
The ninth princess said: "I lost it, I know that it is a good book, and I am reluctant to return it." But all the famous imperial doctors, Langzhong, and their ancestors are all famous doctors, and if such a book falls into his hands, I am afraid that it will be regarded as a family heirloom. ”
Chu Qiu said: "The ninth princess is right. The fifth master, the sixth master is not at home, you have to make the decision for the sixth wife of my family, and you can't let her be coaxed by the hateful imperial doctor. The slave maid inquired around the imperial city, and the big man of Baohetang in the east of the city was willing to bid 100,000 taels to buy this book, and the sixth wife said that she had some friendship with Tao Taiyi, and it was not good for him to pay 100,000 taels, and he should pay 80,000 taels. ”
The ninth princess squirted out tea with a "pounce", it was really ruthless, a medical book dared to ask for 80,000 taels, and someone offered a sky-high price of 100,000 taels, and I don't know if it was true or not.
Chu Qiu said very seriously, "Earlier, the county lord said that this book is very valuable, and we still don't believe it, since I inquired in the imperial city, it is really worth 100,000 taels of silver." Ago, the slave maid and Bai Teng found Imperial Doctor Tao, but he agreed to compensate 80,000 taels before giving 5,000 taels of silver. ”
When the Ninth Princess heard about such an expensive medical book, she asked, "Isn't this the only one in the world?" ”
Chu Qiu said: "What the ninth princess said is exact. The county lord borrowed it from the master, and promised to return it after copying two copies, but he didn't copy it yet, so he was borrowed by Imperial Doctor Tao. ”
In fact, in the morning, Su Yan asked the monks of Tianlong Temple who knew medical skills to copy two sets, but the one that was lent to Liu Feifei was borrowed by her from Guigu Palace, and she said that she would return it.
The Ninth Princess figured it out this time. Dare to love this medical book is the only one in the world, and no one else has it, so he borrowed it from the master, and exclaimed: "Don't say 100,000 taels, I'm afraid it's worth 200,000 taels." ”
Jiang conveyed's eyes sparkled. That's a good thing. "In the early autumn, you lead me there, and I will go and get the money back. is so bold, I have hit our Jiang family with all the ideas, and today we will either let him return the book or let him pay the silver. ”
This time it's not 80,000 taels, Jiang conveyed it ruthlessly.
led a few henchmen and took people to Doctor Tao's house.
Imperial Physician Tao heard that someone from the Jiang family was coming. It's still nine horses, saying that they are coming to collect debts, but they don't hide it, they don't hide it, they have to come to greet people.
Jiang Chuanchuan crossed his hands on his hips: "You are the guy who deceived Mrs. Changpingbo's medical book, that medical book is the only one in the world, you can either return the book." or 150,000 taels of silver. ”
Mrs. Tao stood aside and whispered "Husband". That's more than 100,000 taels of silver, "Why don't you return the book?" ”
It is the only medical book in the world, although it is only "Obstetrics and Gynecology Thousand Departments", but it is very valuable, and he also carefully distinguishes the age, the paper is yellow, and there is a smell of herbs that are bitten by bookworms, it is really a good thing, a unique medical book. His descendants will be able to rely on this medical book to survive.
Imperial Physician Tao snorted: "Shut up, I have my own opinions." He clasped his fists and saluted, "Nine horses, I told the sixth wife of Jiangfu earlier that I lost this book, and I am willing to pay 80,000 taels of silver." ”
"Eighty thousand taels, that's the previous price. If you ask, the book is worth 200,000 taels and it deserves it. Hmph, if you don't want to play tricks and refuse to pay the money honestly, your kid resigned from the post of imperial doctor and wanted to lead the family back to Jiangnan to open a medical center, don't be ignorant of us. If you want to slip away without saying hello, you will flee back to Jiangnan, and Lao Tzu will also chase back the money you owe. Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, now you have to pay 150,000 taels of silver, not a single cent. ”
The news also leaked out too quickly.
He had a quarrel with the doctor this morning, and was told by the doctor that he had a quarrel with the envoy, and the envoy allowed him to resign from the post of imperial physician by being disrespectful to his superiors.
After getting the book of "Obstetrics and Gynecology", he thought about whether to use this book to make a name for himself in Tai Hospital, or to go back to Jiangnan to open a medical hall, and he knew that Tai Hospital would send Tai Yi to study with people in Yiji Medical Center, thinking that the book was a unique book, he naturally made another idea: resign and return to his hometown, devote himself to studying medical books, and open a medical hall in two years to earn a reputation as a miracle doctor.
Doctor Tao said: "150,000 taels of silver is too expensive, but what I said earlier is 80,000 taels......"
Early autumn is aggressive at the moment: "If you are too expensive, return the book." Now someone has already offered 200,000 taels of silver. As long as you return the original, we only have a place to settle. ”
He also plans to pass it on as a family heirloom for generations to come.
Imperial Doctor Tao has fallen out with the hospital envoy and the doctor, and he can't go back to the hospital. He humbly shook his head deeply, "Please also ask the Nine Horses to be kind, you see that my family is so simple, where can I still take out tens of thousands of taels of silver." How about I make an IOU with the Nine Ponies? ”
"Less nonsense! Give the money quickly, or return the book. ”
When you return the book, you will turn around and sell it to others.
If he doesn't return the book, he will use the recipes and medical skills in the one-person association.
Books have a price, but what is priceless is craftsmanship.
Tao Ji took a deep look, "Nine horses are angry, at this time and a half, our Tao family really can't get together so many taels of silver, please wait a while, I'll go and make up 75,000 taels of silver." ”
"One hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver!"
Jiang Wei stubbornly argued.
In the early autumn, he was soft-hearted at the moment, thanks to Tao Ji for Liu Feifei's fetal protection in the past few months, and said: "If you can make up enough 100,000 taels as soon as possible, I will give it to you at this price." If you can't, return the book to us, and we only need the original one, which is the handwriting of a famous doctor in the previous dynasty. ”
In the early autumn, he also said casually, Tao Ji only felt that the words on the book were well written, and the pictures of the herbs on it were also delicately painted, so he didn't think it was the handwriting of a famous doctor, and said busily: "The early autumn girl and the nine horses will go to the flower hall, and I will go to make up the money." ”
He also did not bargain, one thought that one hundred thousand taels of silver was worth it, and the other was because he had his own selfish motives and wanted him to be the only one who had this book.
How can the Tao family have so much silver, go out of the road, find a familiar Jiangnan fellow villagers to borrow money, Jiangnan rich businessmen in the imperial city is also a lot, everyone knows that he is anxious to use the money, so they lent him some, scraped together, only enough 60,000 taels of silver, a whole night spent on the silver, until dawn, has not been enough.
The Tao family had to delay their departure.
Jiang was not in a hurry, he just stayed in the flower hall and did not leave, and a few small servants were like him, all sitting crookedly on the Taishi chair. Jiang conveyed that he was really sleepy, so he lay down and slept on the warm couch in the ear room on the side.
Until noon the next day, Dr. Tao came back from outside, took a thick stack of silver tickets and handed them to Jiang Chuan, Jiang Chuanchuan and the early autumn inventory, Jiang Chuanchuan is now as fine as a fox, it is a real silver ticket, a fake silver ticket as soon as you pass your hand.
"Tao Ji, what the hell are you doing, it's only 80,000 taels of silver, and you want to send us away?"
Imperial Physician Tao hurriedly bowed down, "Nine horses are open, the little one has already run to the homes of all the people he knows, and he can only get such a silver." Please also ask the nine horses to raise their noble hands, the medical book has been lost, and it is really not returned, and the nine horses are invited to have a large number of them, and let go of the small one. ”
Jiang Chuan naturally didn't believe his words, and as soon as he came in and saw the whispers of Imperial Doctor Tao and his wife, he knew that Lu Dao must have hidden the book. He looked up at this courtyard, it was a small courtyard with three entrances, which was not bad, and it was worth thousands of taels of silver.
"If the nine horses take a fancy to this courtyard, take it together." Tao Ji ordered his wife to take the deed and presented it to Jiang with both hands.
Jiang Chuanchuan took it and glanced at it, "This time it's cheaper for you." In early autumn, let's go! He led his subordinates out of Tao's house.
Mrs. Tao's wife had a bitter face.
Imperial Physician Tao looked excited and exhaled, "This medical book is finally mine." ”
Tao's wife scolded: "I think you are really crazy, this yard has been sold, and you still owe so much silver, when will you be able to pay it back." You...... I'm really. ”
"Long hair and short knowledge, with this medical book, my Tao family descendants will have the skill of eating, and over time, I will definitely be able to become a famous doctor in Jiangnan, and at that time, a few hundred thousand taels of silver will not be earned. The people immediately set off back to Jiangnan. ”
In the early autumn, he and Jiang conveyed back to the Pingguo Mansion.
The emperor rewarded a new plaque and replaced it with the sign of "Pingxi Houfu".
Jiang Chuanchuan went to the Agarwood Courtyard and personally gave Liu Feifei the silver ticket and the house deed.
Chu Qiu was still pouting there, "Sixth wife, I heard the ninth princess say that it is a lone medical book, which is sold for 200,000 taels of silver, and someone wants it." You said, the county lord gave the hospital a lot of money, the county lord said that they would copy it, and they would copy it, and I knew that it would be like this, and I would copy a few more sets to sell. ”
The girl's words were like a drum, and Jiang Chuan's mind flashed and jumped.
Liu Feifei said: "What did the fifth master do in shock? ”
Jiang Chuan couldn't help but laugh, "Auntie's trick is powerful enough!" Just this sentence, for fear that Liu Feifei would know how much he thought about it, and left with his fists clenched.
Back at the Xiangxiang Courtyard, Jiang conveyed the matter of debt collection with the ninth princess.
The ninth princess nodded, "It's really weird, my aunt lent several other books to the Tai Hospital to copy, but the "Obstetrics and Gynecology Chapter" is missing, and it doesn't look like this with my aunt's behavior." Let Tao Ji lose money, the asking price is so high, Tao Jin would rather borrow money to compensate than return the book......"
Jiang said: "I see, my aunt has more than one set of "Hundred Diseases Prescriptions" in her hand, that is, there is at least one copy of "Obstetrics and Gynecology". ”
Su Yan deceived Tao Ji like this, isn't she rectifying people.
Looking back, people kindly lent him the book to copy, but he actually lied that he had lost it.
Su Yan This is to make Tao Ji remember for a long time, that book is not a book, when Su Yan did a loss-making business, she took the shortcomings, and it is strange that you don't feel distressed. It is the money of the first emperor, Su Yan also dares to accept it, what is a Tao Ji, she has not taken tens of thousands of taels of silver out.
One day, if Tao Ji knows the Tao, the book "Gynecology Qianjin" in his hand is not the only one, although there are some years, but someone has copied it early in the morning, and he also spent a sky-high price to buy it, he will be so angry that he vomits blood.
