Back in Huainan, the days calmed down again.

Grandma Xu cried a lot when she saw the unharmed Ugly, and the Ugly was comforted for a while, and explained the reason clearly, so Grandma Xu calmed down a lot.

During this period of time, Yonghetang has been making small fights, and Sumire Hall is not difficult to deal with. As for the imperial court, after meeting Qian Zhanye that day, there was no news for a long time.

It was not until a long time later that the imperial court sent troops to deal with the fleeing bandits. When Ah Chou heard the news, he was sure that Qian Zhanye was still in the book, but from this point of view, the efficiency of the Daqian Imperial Court was really a little low, and it took so long to send troops, and the daylilies were cold. Sure enough, as soon as the troops were dispatched, news came out that the gang of thieves headed west and hid in the deep mountains of Shuzhong. Now the situation has returned to a stalemate between the two sides, and there has been no progress.

And the game between the four princes and the crown prince is still neither winning nor losing after all.

The autumn rain was pouring down, and he took the umbrella and walked into the house: "Girl, is there anything to find me?" ”

"You go to the warehouse for this list, and in addition, I have something to say after work today, so that everyone can stay." Ugly handed over the list.

"The weather has been bad this autumn, with continuous rain and rain, and even the harvest of various medicinal herbs has been affected." Ugly poses the reality.

Everyone was worried when they heard this.

Ugly continued: "Due to the weather, the purchase price is bound to increase. In order to deal with this situation, Yonghetang has already taken action. "The He family's head family is really extraordinary, and he shot so fast.

"However, how to deal with the increase in the purchase price?" Du Yisheng was puzzled.

"Yonghetang has raised the price of some medicinal materials, and in addition, they have sent people to the north to collect medicine." Ugly sighed. Yonghetang is widely distributed, so this part of the advantage is obvious. It is rainy in Huainan, but it is sunny in the north.

Jin Dacheng put forward an opinion: "Then we will also go to the north to collect medicine?" ”

"If there is Yonghetang in the north. Where else can we get our hands on? It's just that the more you buy, the higher the price. Let's go to the south, I will hand over this matter to He Sijun's procurement department, he is still outside, and I will explain it when I come back. In addition, we are going to adjust the price as well. Ugly took a deep breath.

"How are we going to adjust the price, is it the same as Yonghetang, or is it cheaper than Yonghetang?" Tian Qiumei asked.

"The jury is out on this, as long as the overall price level is comparable. But before He Sijun returns from the south, the supply is bound to be tight. I tell you this situation so that you can deal with it positively. Your sales department starts tomorrow. Half of the original inventory is out of warning, and the warehouse should be notified in time. The warehousing has been changed from a daily summary to a half-day. If something happens like this, we can respond in time. "Ugly's deployment plan has been adjusted.

In the evening, Ah Chou accompanied Grandma Xu to dinner.

"Why haven't you seen Mr. Mo looking for you recently?" Grandma Xu asked.

"Mo Gongzi," Ugly paused his chopsticks. "I haven't seen him since I returned to Huainan. There is no news of him either. But. Mo Gongzi has been very busy, and it is normal to say goodbye without saying goodbye. ”

Grandma Xu nodded, without words.

After a while, Ah Chou said again: "I don't know what happened to his cousin Miss Liu." "Last time, Liu Ruyu suddenly felt unwell, and then she didn't notice any illness, which was really reassuring.

"When you come back. I don't think I've seen Mr. Qian yet? Grandma Xu asked with a chopstick dish.

Ah Chou shook his head with the bowl: "Huainan Dao has poked such a big thing, Lord Qian, they must be very busy, and they will not mention any banquet." ”

After speaking, she looked at the rainy sky outside: "Besides, the weather is bad these days. No one wants to hold a chrysanthemum feast. ”

"I heard," Grandma Xu's somewhat cloudy eyes were a little worried, "Lord Qian's second son is going to the capital next spring to participate in the Spring Festival?" ”

"He is the second place in this year's B subject, that is, the second place, and he will definitely participate in the Spring Festival. Master Qian has been in officialdom for many years, and he will definitely be able to arrange a good place for his son. "These second-generation officials know a handful of nobles casually, and the road is well paved, but those from ordinary peasant families like Ding Juwen are much more difficult.

Ding Juwen set off to return to her hometown before she left Huainan, and has not been heard from since. Fortunately, when he figured it out after a while, he should be glad that she didn't agree.

"Although I don't go to Sumire Hall, I know a little bit about Sumire Hall," Grandma Xu sighed, "It's been so hard recently, even He Sijun has been sent to the south, don't you really regret it?" ”

He Sijun had already moved to the city from the outskirts of Huainan, and the residence that Ah Chou personally funded for him and his subordinates was near Ah Chou's house. And these days, when he went to the south to collect medicine, Wen Peiyu often came to Ugly's house to talk to Grandma Xu. Therefore, even if Nianxin and Qiu Mei don't talk about it, Wen Peiyu will reveal a thing or two.

Ugly shook his head: "It's not hard, how can you not worry about doing business, what's more, what do you regret?" ”

Grandma Xu looked at Ah Ugly with some pity: "If you had responded to Ding Juwen'......"

"I won't answer Ding Juwen," Ugly explained helplessly, "Not to mention that this person is a brainless nerd with a big brain, and I am not suitable for him at all." Grandma, I said I don't have to bring it up again. ”

Grandma Xu will also observe words and feelings, and the ugly has said so, what else can she say? "You girl......" The ending note was full of emotion and a little sad.

At the end of October, the early winter season. There was a slightly damp coldness in the air, and some dim sunlight was faintly shrouded, adding a bit of gloom to Huainan City.

Ah Chou had just returned from a place where he was talking about business, and he was walking down the street, surrounded by an endless stream of pedestrians.

Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead, as if someone had had an accident.

Out of professional habit, Ugly went up to investigate. As a doctor, how can there be a reason not to save when you die?

A young man was lying on the ground and hugging his body, as if he was shivering, his face was pale and painful.

Ah Chou frowned and squatted down: "Can you still speak, is there an old illness or a sudden attack?" She said anxiously, reaching for his pulse. The disease seems to be menacing, and if left untreated, it may be life-threatening......

However, no one expected that as soon as Ah Chou approached to grab the hand of the young man on the ground, a sharp dagger glowing with cold light suddenly appeared and stabbed Ah Chou in the chest and abdomen.

Defenseless, she instantly felt pain, and subconsciously struggled desperately.

The dagger was pulled out of her abdomen, blood flowing, and Ugly fell to the ground, unable to get up again.

Seeing this, the young man on the ground hurriedly stepped forward to make up for a few more knives, but unfortunately there were already people in the crowd who had seen the unevenness of the road rushing up to catch him.

"It's too lacking in morality, pretending to be sick and sympathetic, and actually wants to kill well-wishers......"

"Girl, how are you?"

"Hurry up and call Lang Zhong, hurry!"

Ah Chou's right hand covered the gushing blood, and his left hand was slightly raised, so weak that he was angry.

Who is going to kill her?

Who's going to kill her......

It was the last thing she remembered before she passed out.

In the courtyard of the house where Ah Chou lived, the prefect of Huainan City walked back and forth with some boredom.

This morning was quite peaceful, and there were no difficult cases to decide. He also thought that today was an easy day, and everyone was fine. But when it was almost noon, I suddenly said that there was a murder case on the street! He rushed over, only to find out that the victim was actually an ugly girl from Sumire! And that murderer actually committed suicide by taking poison!

Now after checking for a long time, there is no clue at all. No usable evidence was found on the murderer. And Ah Chou, it seems that he has been injured to the point, if he can be saved, it will be easier to do, after all, there is no death; But if he can't be saved, Ah Chou has some friendship with the officials of Huainan Province. There is no clue that the murderer committed suicide, and he can't find out why, how can he explain it to the above?

Nianxin walked out of the east wing where Ah Chou lived, closed the door, and came to the prefect to salute: "My lord." ”

When the prefect saw that Nian Xin was worried, he knew that he was not out of danger, and he couldn't help sighing: "This murder case is really strange. ”

"My lord," Nian Xin worried, "what was the situation then?" ”

"According to those who saw it at the time, there was a man on the road who was sick and rolling on the ground shivering. The ugly girl is always helpful and treats others for free. So the ugly girl stepped forward to check, and the person who pretended to be sick took the opportunity to stab her. If it weren't for the people's indignation and the subduing of the murderer, I'm afraid it would be ......," the prefect shook his head again and again.

Nian Xin lowered his head and pondered: "My lord, in this way, that murderer must have deliberately murdered. Who doesn't know the name of our girl's free clinic in Jiantang, Huainan City? The murderer probably took advantage of my girl's kindness to create this incident, and then took the opportunity to do it. But that person, my girl doesn't know, I'm afraid it's the real murderer behind the scenes. ”

"Who has your girl offended, or who has a vendetta with?" The prefect asked.

"How can there be no few opponents in business, and if you want to offend, it's all about business. However, it is not impossible to kill because of business. Nian Xin spoke his speculation.

The prefect sighed: "It's not early, I'll go back first." If your girl is out of danger, come to the yamen to inform you. ”

Nian Xin's words were earnest: "Lord Qiuzhifu must be the master of our girl's family and give her justice!" ”

"This official must do his best, this incident has too bad an impact on the people's customs, if the murderer is not punished, I am afraid that no one will dare to do good and help others in the future! So I'm definitely going to do my best. The prefect promised.

Indeed, this incident happened on the street, and the people saw it clearly. If you can't figure out the cause and effect of the matter, and you can't figure out the real culprit behind the scenes, Huainan City is afraid that the world is really going down! Therefore, whether it is because of the special relationship between Augly and Huainan Provincial officials, or for the sake of long-term political achievements, the Huainan prefect is bound to give an explanation.

"Thank you for your trouble," said Nian Xin, "Your Excellency will walk slowly, and you will definitely inform the yamen as soon as there is news, so that you can come and inquire about the situation at that time." Unfortunately, she was also very worried about whether the girl would wake up. (To be continued......)
