Chapter Thirty-Eight: Who Knows Where the Peach Blossom Fountain Is

Chapter 38 Who knows where the Peach Blossom Fountain is

If he was as aggressive as the previous "rule man", Zhang Qian could directly reply to him with a "mind about your", and he walked away. Anyway, Zhang Qian didn't take Datang's salary first, and secondly, he didn't ask to do business with these people.

And he put on a serious discussion posture, Zhang Qian was not embarrassed to open directly. After a little hesitation, he smiled sideways and returned the salute: "The old man is polite, I don't hide it, and I don't know how much this medicine should be sold for." Although there are still ten pills of this medicine, it is only enough for one person. If the old man can estimate a proper price for this medicine, so that it can finally fall into the hands of those who really need it, I am willing to change the price back immediately according to the old man's idea! ”

Playing the ball was one of the debating skills he learned in college. Kick the question back to the first questioner and attack the shield with the spear of the son! As soon as this trick came out, immediately, the old man named "Ji Weng" fell into the way, and Tie Qing thought about it for a long time with a blue face, but in the end, he only let out a long sigh.

"Why is Ji on sighing? Even if this medicine is the only one in the world, selling it for fifty hangs is already a sky-high price. The old man, whose name was "Shi Weng", didn't understand why his friend was defeated at a word, and frowned and helped by the side.

Before the words fell, Zhang Qian immediately turned his body to him and bowed down to ask for advice, "Dare to ask my father-in-law, if someone has evil poison into the body, but there is no fifty hanging family assets, wouldn't he close his eyes and wait for death?" And if there is a huge rich family, buying this medicine and hiding it in the high pavilion, will it not live up to the original intention of the Dan maker to help the world? ”

These two sentences were originally from the mouth of the previous "Ji Weng", and Zhang Qian's only change was to change the 100,000 hangs to the 50 hangs suggested by "Shi Weng", and the others were returned as they were.

looked at the old man who was called "Shi Weng" by his friends, and he was dumbfounded when he asked. After muttering for a long time, I couldn't find a word to answer.

Like China in the 21st century, in the Tang Dynasty in the 8th century, there were rich people who could not afford 100,000 yuan, and naturally there were middle-class people who could not afford 50,000 yuan. There are also extremely poor families who are busy all day long, and their monthly income does not reach 100 yuan. Therefore, unless it is given away for free, otherwise, no matter how much the price of the ten "evil pills" is, there will definitely be people who can't afford it. (Note: According to the purchasing power of Xiaomi, one article is equivalent to almost 10 yuan.) )

And the lower the price of buying it home and going to the high pavilion of hiding, the more likely it is that this kind of thing will happen. From this point of view, his suggestion of "fifty hangings" is simply unmistakable.

"Dare to ask the two elders, if one of them spends fifty yuan to buy this medicine to save his son, but the other one pays five thousand yuan to ask him to transfer it. The two elders thought that he would give up his wealth to save his son, or would he give up his son and seek wealth? "Lest the "Ji Weng" and "Shi Weng" are also the same as the "Gui Weng", and the debate with himself is endless, Zhang Qian simply put on a posture of humbly seeking advice, and threw the problems he faced at the beginning to the two of them, "If there is a person who spends 5,000 hangs to get this medicine at a high price, and has time to save his relatives in the future, but someone comes to the door with the name of the county magistrate, and asks him to transfer this medicine to save the father of the county magistrate, and the two elders think that he has the courage to turn away the person who holds the name post?" If the person who came is not holding the name of the county governor, but the history of the assassination, the book of Shang, or even higher, may I ask the two elders, who will this medicine end up into?! ”

The two old men whose names were called "Ji Weng" and "Shi Weng" in the name of "This ......" both blushed again and were speechless.

If it was Haiqing Heyan in the Tang Dynasty at this moment, Junzheng and Chenxian, of course they could loudly reprimand Zhang Qian for spending the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain! If at this moment, the people of the Tang Dynasty are "brothers, friends, brothers, brothers, fathers, sons, and filial piety", of course, they can also confidently reprimand Zhang Qian's demons to confuse the public. At this moment, the officialdom of Datang has rotted to the point of being full of fishy smells, as for the people of Datang, there is no shortage of people who give up their sons and seek wealth!

So, unless you close your eyes and tell nonsense. Otherwise, they simply couldn't deny that the situation that Zhang Qian had just talked about was very likely to happen in reality. In that case, no matter whether Zhang Qian made the price of the medicine ten or ten thousand, this medicine would not fall into the hands of ordinary people. The lower the price, the more disputes it will cause. However, it was marked at an unattainable price at one time and placed in Chang'an City, which could save a lot of trouble.

Although Datang is rich, at present, in Chang'an City, there will be no more than 50 households that can easily take out 100,000 hangers without hurting their muscles and bones. And these fifty households are either from five surnames and seven hopes, or they rely on the founding fathers and the royal family behind them. The home that can spend 100,000 yuan to buy medicine naturally has the strength to prevent the pill from being taken by some officials. In this way, Zhang Qian's price of the medicine was marked to 100,000 hangs, not only was it not a black heart, but a good deed after careful consideration. Instead of questioning him, others should be amazed by his wisdom!

Where would the two old men named "Ji Weng" and "Shi Weng" have thought that the bizarre pricing of the "Evil Pill Pill" was not from the hands of Zhang Qian, a young man, but the initial decision of the wealthy businessman Ren Qiong after careful consideration. In terms of being a scholar and an official, Ren Qiong is definitely inferior to them. When it comes to doing business, and being good at dancing with long sleeves, Ren Qiong can throw them twenty streets.

Both of them are real well-educated people, and they don't have the face to make that kind of nonsense behavior regardless of the facts. However, let the two of them admit that Zhang Qian's sky-high price of selling medicine is to accumulate virtue and do good, and it is too difficult for the two of them. Therefore, with a red face and red ears, he muttered again and again, and "Ji Weng" chose to sigh again. And the "real man" saluted Zhang in a curtled manner, and quickly diverted the topic, "If there is only one in the world, the old man really has nothing to say." However, is Xiaoyou really a child of the Mo family? The old man listened to the sharp words of the little friend, but he was not inferior to the Zongheng family? ”

That's what he really cares about. No matter what price the "evil pill" sells, he will not buy it himself. It will not be like the "rule man", in order to show his existence, he will find fault and find thorns everywhere. People have limited time in this life, and he prefers to spend his limited time on some interesting things, such as making a bet with his old friend "Ji Weng", and he has won repeatedly.

"Why did my husband say that?!" The topic changed a little suddenly, Zhang Qianleng was stunned, and a vigilance immediately rose in his heart, "Who said that the children of the Mo family can't defend themselves when they are splashed with sewage on their heads?" If only the Zongheng family is good at reasoning, during the Warring States Period, the sages of the Mo family ran around to resolve the soldiers, what did they rely on? ”

These few words, but all the answers were to the point, and suddenly, the old man whose name was called "Shi Weng" was speechless. The Mohists advocate "both love, not offense", and practice it personally. It can be clearly seen in the historical materials that there were seven or eight wars that were stopped by the patriarch Mo Zhai and his disciples, and those that were not recorded in the historical materials are probably even more!

If only a few weapons ahead of the times and a few people's enthusiasm, I am afraid that Mo Zhai and his descendants would have died cleanly a long time ago, and they would not have had a chance to establish a faction as one of the top five among the hundred sons, and pass on the torch. Therefore, in most cases, Mo Zhai and his descendants are still "convincing people with reason". The art of eloquence that they mastered was one of the best at the time, as was the weapon in their hands.

"This is very reasonable, Shion, you are too obsessed with the surface!" Seeing that "Shi Weng" was asked by Zhang Qian to Zhang Qian, the old man of the fairy wind and bones who was called "Ji Weng" by his friends, the embarrassment and resentment in his heart were quickly replaced by schadenfreude. smiled and loudly gave Zhang Qian's help, "Although the Zongheng family is good at tongue debate, it is mostly sophistry and rhetoric, and it has no foundation in itself, and what it seeks is only the wealth of one person. The Mohists, on the other hand, are both able to speak and do good deeds, and their work is based on the principle of "rejuvenating the world and removing the harm of the world". I won't learn that weed to fall with the wind! Little friend, is the old man right? ”

"What the old man said is very true!" Since he has pretended to be a child of the Mo family, and others praise his teacher, of course Zhang Qian can't deny it. immediately smiled and bowed his hand, "Thank you for the praise, the younger generation is deeply honored!" ”

"Don't be too busy thanking me yet!" Unexpectedly, the purpose of "Ji Weng" is not only to compete with his old friend "Shi Weng" to determine whose judgment is accurate. smiled and waved his hand, and continued: "Dare to ask Xiaoyou, who made this medicine?" Is it true that you can't make a second copy? ”

"It turns out that you are also here for the prescription, but I still regarded you as a generous elder just now" Zhang Qian's heart was alarmed, he frowned, and responded coldly, "This medicine is made by the master, and when I went down the mountain, I brought two copies with me." One is used on the owner, and the other is in Chang'an City at the moment, as the old man saw! Under himself, he neither knows the prescription nor can he refine it. In fact, Zhang wished that someone could make a second copy. In that case, Zhang would have a lot less trouble. At least, you won't be questioned at every turn! ”

With that, he glanced at the guy whose name was called "Guiweng" out of the corner of his eye, and took another step. It's as if if you walk a little slower, you will be robbed by this group of "disrespectful" guys.

Although the "Ji Weng" is nearly fifty years old, his eyes have not been spent, and his ears are not deaf. was so disdainful of Zhang Qian's obvious disdain that his face was so red that he almost dripped, but he chased a few steps and explained loudly: "The old man understands what Xiaoyou means. If there is one more copy of this medicine in the world, there will not be so many people who will set their eyes on Xiaoyou. The old man, the old man doesn't want to mess around, let alone try to plot a prescription for the little friend. Old man, old man just thinks that since Xiaoyou's master can make this medicine, if Xiaoyou can go back and get more, won't more people in the world be rescued because of this? ”

Raising his hand to wipe the beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, he continued to add wishfully, "Xiaoyou claims to be a child of the Mo family, and the Mo family takes saving people from the world as a top priority. Little friends ......"

"My husband said this very much, but he can't go back now!" Before this person could finish speaking, Zhang Qian had already interrupted with a sigh.

If he could go back to the twenty-first century, would he wait until now? Not to mention that the current Tang Dynasty court has become a pot of porridge, and it will affect his "pond fish" one day. What is the appeal of these days when there is no Internet, no lamb skewers, no TV, movies and novels, and you may die of infection if you suffer a small injury?

Others cross, but there is still a system that can be upgraded, and there is an old man to escort you! When you stomp your feet, your little brother bows her head and bows, and her mouth is cocked, and there are beauties crying and shouting for her arms, and the beauties are all nine-headed and turbulent? As for him, from the beginning to the present, he has met a purple juan, who is still a minor washboard, and can neither look at nor eat.

"Why, the old man heard that the master didn't live in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain?" Seeing the loneliness on Zhang Qian's face, it didn't look like it was disguised, and the "Ji Weng" boss suddenly couldn't bear his patience and curiosity, and frowned to get to the bottom of it. "Although Zhongnan Mountain is vast, send more people to find it, and there will always be a chance to find where your master is!"

It seems that in order to sell medicine, the owner of Ren Zhuang has publicized all my original words! With Zhang Qian's cleverness, how could he not have imagined that the other party would be so "clear" about his own details? So, he sighed with a wry smile and gave the answer that he had been preparing for a long time, "Zhongnan Mountain is indeed not vast, but how is it compared to Wuling?" Since Tao Yuanming's fisherman, has anyone found the peach blossom source? ”
