Chapter 420: Cold Sweat, Net Worth
"Okay, what are you doing at their house?" Chunxin asked strangely.
Meng Dong opened his mouth, but he didn't speak, but looked left and right, even though he knew that there was no one else in the store except for the two of them, he couldn't help but ask: "Is there anyone else here?" ”
So careful? Sister, what's going on with people now, one is more mysterious than the other. Chunxin raised her eyebrows, nodded and said, "Yes, I am human and you are also human." ”
"I don't have time to mess around with you!" Meng Dong glared at Chunxin, rubbed his temples that were a little painful, sat down on the chair next to him, and said, "I have something to look for you." ”
Nonsense, looking at this situation, you also know that there is something wrong with the road. Chunxin is a little curious, it is said that since that day, this kid should have disappeared for a while, who knows that after a few days, he suddenly came to the door again, I am afraid that there is really something very important.
Meng Dong didn't speak, just buried his face in the palm of his hand. His mind was in a state of confusion right now, and he wanted to say it but didn't know how to say it.
If you are not careful, I am afraid that the entire Meng family will be destroyed.
Moreover, not only the collapse of the Meng family, I am afraid that there will be a lot of involvement.
Chunxin didn't urge him, just sat there and flipped through the book - anyway, they all came to the door, and they must have something to say to her, so give this kid a little time to organize his language.
"I remember that when you used my family's medicine, it was the Qian family who came forward to contact you." Finally, Meng Dong spoke.
"yes, that's my brother's friend." Chunxin nodded, "If it weren't for the Qian family, how could we get your family's medicine at a low price with a small shop like ours with little stock and insufficient funds?" ”
Meng Dong nodded slowly, his brows furrowed.
"How. Are you looking for someone to find money? Chunxin tilted her head and looked at Meng Dong. But I only know one person from the Qian family. You should have heard that there is a little general named Qian Wujian who has just won a battle in Far North Pass. ”
"Yes......" Meng Dong's voice was a little dry, it was because the people who led the troops to fight in Far North Pass knew that there was no shortage of money, so he found Xiaochun.
"If there's anything I can do to help, just tell me."
It's noon, it's cloudy and windy today, and there are few people outside at this time. If the two of them are silent, there is always an oppressive silence.
"Xiaochun, this matter is related to the life and death of our Meng family, and even the life and death of our Changguo, you ......" Meng Dong pursed his lips, stared at Chunxin, and said solemnly, "It must be kept secret." ”
Dwarf oil, it's so serious, it can't be that your Meng family is going to rebel, right? Chunxin raised an eyebrow. But your family is just a drug seller, and you have no soldiers and no power. How to rebel?
The cold wind whistles through the door, and the sound it makes is always unconsciously lifting.
"You have to keep this matter a secret." Meng Dong stood up, walked to the opposite side of Chunxin in a few steps, supported the table with both hands and looked at her, and a wry smile suddenly appeared on Junya's face, "Moreover, apart from you, I don't know who to talk to." ”
Chunxin nodded slightly.
"Our Meng family's medicinal herb business, even in the entire Chang Dynasty, is also famous." Rao was no longer around, and Meng Dong still kept his voice very low, "Whenever there is a plague and the imperial court needs a large amount of medicine, it will definitely collect medicine from major medicine stores, and our Meng family is naturally among them." ”
Imperial court medicine? There was a faint uneasiness that arose from Chunxin's heart. If it was just to collect medicine as usual, the Meng family was afraid that if they hadn't handed it over once or twice, it wouldn't be like this, and there was no need for Meng Dong to come to her to discuss. Now that the north is at war, the situation in the south is not optimistic, and the imperial court naturally wants to collect medicine...... Meng Dong mentioned that Senior Brother Qian is not bad, could it be that their medicine is going to be sent to Far North Pass?
Soon, Meng Dong gave her the answer: "Now that the Far North Pass is in war, the consumption of medicinal materials is large, the first batch of medicinal materials raised by our family has been sent away seven days ago, and now the second batch has also left the city yesterday." It's just that I found something wrong, if my guess comes true, I'm afraid that Far North Pass will suffer heavy losses, and our Meng family will naturally be responsible, and it will be difficult to escape death. ”
"What's wrong with those herbs? Who is responsible? Is it your people who escort it, or the people of the court who escort it? ”
All three questions were asked to the point. Meng Dong glanced at Chunxin deeply, sighed slightly in his heart, looked away, and said softly: "I handed it over to Meng You after the acceptance, and it was escorted to Far North Pass by our family." What are the pills...... Someone has tampered with it, good drugs have been mixed with defective products, and it is likely that there are some fake drugs. ”
Chunxin originally thought that in addition to the so-called problems, he was just afraid that the road would be delayed or made difficult by the military, but he didn't expect it to be like this. If the Far North Pass army used such medicine, it would inevitably cause losses, and when the time came, the imperial court ordered a thorough investigation, and the Meng family had no other fate than death. Moreover, what is even more terrifying is that if the loss caused by those medicines is too great, in case it leads to the loss of the Far North Pass, it will not be a problem that can be solved by destroying the Meng family.
It's not bad that Senior Brother Qian is still leading people to fight in the Far North Pass, if something goes wrong...... Cold sweat leaked out of Chunxin's back little by little, she really couldn't imagine what the original fun-loving and a little narcissistic senior brother was like when he was a lively and lovely young man.
"That's it." Meng Dong sighed, this kind of thing, he can't discuss it with anyone, he thinks about it, and the only way to find Xiaochun is to find it.
"Wait, wait! Do you know who did it? Chunxin finally came back to his senses and asked quickly, "Even if you move your hands and feet here, how can you deal with it over there in Far North Pass?" The people who accepted it wouldn't be blind and couldn't recognize the problems with those medicines, right? ”
Meng Dong gritted his teeth hard, and his tone became cold: "It's Meng You." I personally inspected the medicines before handing them over, and he was in charge of sorting out and escorting them, and no one would have thought that he would dare to act so boldly...... As for the Far North Pass," he suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly, "as long as the effort is done, the people who accept it will naturally turn a blind eye." "In the past, when the medicine was collected, sometimes the medicine was insufficient, and in order not to delay the date, it was also shoddy, as long as the person in charge of acceptance was encircled. As long as the superficial work is done well. Even if there is a little bit of discrepancy, you can mix it up.
It's just that. He couldn't imagine where Meng You got so bold to do it in the medicinal materials sent to the Far North Guan Barracks, because the medicine stored at home can be fully supported, there is no need to use shoddy medicine, let alone prevaricate with fake medicine, that is a war!
"Are you sure something really went wrong?" Not only Meng Dong couldn't figure it out, but Chun Xin couldn't figure out why Meng Youwei would come to such a hand. Is he really not afraid of the East Window incident? This is ancient times, and copying all over the house is not just for fun.
"Yes, when I inspected the goods this morning, I found that there was a warehouse with the wrong amount of medicinal materials." Meng Dong wiped his face vigorously, took a long breath and said, "It's also a coincidence, I shouldn't have been there today, I just happened to pass by, and it just happened." ”
Because, that warehouse is at the intersection of Jiqing Street. This. He didn't want Chun to know, and shook his head slightly. He continued: "The warehouse should have been emptied, and I had already told my father that there would be a new batch of medicinal herbs in two days, but when I passed by, I noticed several carts pulling medicine out. I didn't alarm them, I just looked them up on the side. ”
And under this investigation, he was shocked into a cold sweat, those medicines should have been sent out of the city yesterday! It's okay if it's just that the workers are lazy and delay, but he understands that the batch of medicines he watched the car go out of the city, and what he saw today is not all.
Chunxin bit her lip lightly, and asked with some hesitation: "There are so many medicines, how can you be sure that it is the batch sent to Far North Pass?" Could it be a mistake? ”
"No," Meng Dong shook his head slightly, "I personally inspected it, and I remember all the marks on those medicine packets." I came back to my senses, didn't dare to pause, and secretly went to the warehouse where I was on a mission, and found that there was a warehouse where some of the medicinal materials in poor condition and a batch of fake medicinal materials were mistakenly received a long time ago, but the guards said that the medicinal materials in poor condition had been sold, and the batch of fake medicinal materials was useless and had been burned as firewood......"
"Do you believe that?"
"Of course I don't believe it, but the accounts are really clear, and even where those medicinal materials are sold, there are accounts to check."
In other words, there are indeed people who are making trouble, and their influence is not low, at least they can control the two medicine warehouses of the Meng family, and there are a group of their own people hiding in the shadows. Chun Xin's eyebrows raised slightly, she didn't expect Meng You to have such great strength. However, "Is it really Mengyou?" ”
"Except for him, I can't think of anyone else, in order to avoid delays, I handed over the goods to him immediately after inspection, and the next day he personally escorted him to the Far North Pass, nearly half of the medicinal materials were dropped overnight, if he didn't know anything, there was no need to worry about the position of the head of the Meng family in this life." Meng Dong's eyes became more and more cold, he really didn't expect Meng You to dare to treat the entire Meng family as a child's play.
"And what are you going to do now?" Chun Xin sighed, it's really bad to encounter this kind of thing, this kid is only seventeen or eighteen years old this year, and he is a carefree high school student in modern times, at most, he is worried about the college entrance examination and is about to take the college entrance examination, so annoying that the sister paper ignores me and does something like that, but here it is to run for the whole family.
What to do? As soon as he found out the truth, Meng Dong's first reaction was to inform his father as soon as possible, so that he could recover the batch of medicinal materials from yesterday, after all, it was only one day, and he might be able to catch up. Then, he quickly thought of the batch seven days ago, which was also escorted by Meng You, but at that time, Meng You was still waiting for the second batch and did not personally participate in the escort, I am afraid that it has gone far now, even if it catches up, it will be delayed for at least nearly half a month to recover and re-prepare. A day or two late may still be excusable, three days and four days, as long as the favor is in place, it can be perfunctory, but for more than half a month or even longer, there is no way to perfunctory.
"That's my father, I know him, and I have already ordered someone to report what happened to him yesterday." Meng Dong sighed with a wry smile, "It's just the batch from seven days ago, he will definitely not recover it, the delay is too long, there is no way to cover it up, he will definitely try his best to hide the truth that those medicinal materials are problematic." ”
"Yes...... That batch of medicine will go to the Far North Pass first, and then the injured or sick soldiers will use those medicines...... "The border pass is already difficult, and the medicinal materials that can be used are defective and fake, thinking of that kind of consequence, Chun Xin only felt cold in his heart."
