Hua Shan and the other seventeen people left Chang'an City quietly, and there was no one to see them off, and Li Jun, the only one who knew about it, was still asleep on the woman's bed.

Since leaving Chang'an City, Huashan ran to the carriage and did not show up, and soon the bitter and astringent taste of herbs came from the carriage, Gao Gan felt very strange, this time he and others did not say that it was the wind and the water was cold, and it could be regarded as a march for the country, and no one sent it away, and Huashan also made a mystery.

Finally in the evening, Gao Gan couldn't control his curiosity, and also got into the carriage, like Huashan, Gao Gan got on the carriage and didn't get down, and there was a quarrel between the two people in the carriage from time to time......

At this time, the capital is a different scene, the Qinglou liquor stores that were very ostentatious before have been closed, and Jing Zhaoyin's bad people are patrolling everywhere, especially for the tightest investigation of outsiders, I can't wait to ask your ancestors for eight generations.

Everyone is not stupid, they have already known the news of the plague in Xuzhou through the newspaper, so they are also very cooperative, especially those businessmen who go south and north, they are well-informed, and naturally know the severity of the plague.

Lv Hanyi is a businessman, a native of Hedong, mainly engaged in the business of medicinal materials, Lv Hanyi heard the news of the plague for the first time, and immediately stopped selling medicinal materials, and the businessman's intuition told Lv Hanyi that at this time, food or anything is not as valuable as medicinal materials.

In order to be able to sell his medicinal materials at a good price, Lu Hanyi was determined to wait for a few days, and wait until there was a shortage of medicinal materials before making a move, and when the time came, doubling the price would be regarded as having a conscience.

So during this time, Lu Hanyi often sat alone in a small teahouse to inquire about the news outside, when he heard the news that the Huashan Divine Doctor led the team to Xuzhou, Lv Hanyi knew in his heart that it was time to make a move, although the Huashan Divine Doctor was a god, but he couldn't change the medicinal materials, this time was just to raise the price, as for the protective price system, Lu Hanyi felt that this kind of critical moment was useless, you don't want me to sell at a high price, then I will keep it, and see who is in a hurry in the end?

Lu Hanyi made a calculation in his heart, and happily returned to the inn where he lived, as soon as he entered the inn, Lu Hanyi was surrounded by a group of big men in brocade clothes, this is the famous brocade guard, Lu Hanyi's head immediately sweated, how can he be able to dispatch this group of uncles.

The captain of the Jinyi Guard, who was the leader, asked with a straight face, "You are Lu Hanyi, right?" ”

"The little one is, I don't know what the official commands?" Lu Hanyi replied cautiously.

The lieutenant snorted coldly and said, "Lu Hanyi, someone reported that you are preparing to raise the price of medicinal materials, it is really damn to make money at this time, come with me." ”

Lu Hanyi secretly scolded his mother in his heart, why did you say that you were "ready to raise prices", didn't Lao Tzu raise prices yet, why did you catch Lao Tzu?

Of course, you just gave Lu Hanyi a hundred guts to say these words, and he didn't dare to say it, Lu Hanyi hurriedly smiled and said, "Did you officials misunderstand?" I'm a serious businessman, and I didn't even think about price gouging. ”

The captain pointed to the large pile of medicinal herbs he had found and said coldly, "Then how do you explain these things?" According to the information obtained by Jin Yiwei, you have been in Beijing for half a month, and you were looking for sellers everywhere in the days before, since the news of the plague in Xuzhou came out, you have disappeared with your medicinal materials, isn't this preparing to raise prices? ”

"This ...... This ......" Lu Hanyi didn't know how to answer for a while, and it happened that at this time, there was a sudden shout from a bad person outside: "Now the people of Xuzhou are suffering, please come to help, donate money if you have money, and donate medicine if you don't have money......"

Hearing this, Lu Hanyi suddenly had an idea in his heart, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, you really misunderstood, although Lu Mou is just a businessman, he also knows the truth of worrying about the country, the reason why Lu Mou kept these medicinal materials is to donate them to the imperial court, the country is in trouble, and it is really short-sighted for us to think about our own petty profits." ”

The captain was obviously stunned when he heard these righteous words, and then it took a long time for the captain to react, arched his hand at Lu Hanyi and said: "I'm ashamed, it's wrong Mr., since Mr. has the heart to serve the country, then we don't dare to stop it, so I escorted Mr. to the donation office in Nancheng to donate medicinal materials." ”

"Ah, now?" Lu Hanyi asked with a dark face, this group of people is really real, Lao Tzu is just talking, but he didn't think about donating it.

Captain Jinyi nodded and said, "Yes, does Mr. have any other concerns?" ”

Lu Hanyi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, let's go, let's go now." ”

In order to save his life, Lu Hanyi finally decided to break the fortune and avoid disasters, and Lu Hanyi also figured it out, if he dared to regret it now, or if he didn't admit it afterwards, then with Jinyiwei's ability, his future would be a dead end.

There are very few people in the donation office, except for some people who really have good intentions, most of the people are watching, everyone is talking about the four big words "voluntary donation", a teenager asked the old man next to him: "Uncle, what does this mean?" ”

"Gua Wazi, you still don't understand this, this is something in the court, I hope the people will help, it doesn't matter how much money you give, it doesn't matter if you donate or not, everything is voluntary." The old man replied with a smile.

"Then why don't you donate, uncle?" The boy asked.

The old man touched his goatee and said, "Silly boy, this matter is not in a hurry, wait, I just want to donate, and I can't be the first, I can't be the first bird, child." ”

Just when everyone was bored, a group of brocade guards came over like wolves.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, and make way for Mr. Lu."

The young man said angrily: "What are you angry? ”

The old man hurriedly covered the young man's mouth and said, "I don't want to live anymore, how dare I provoke these black skins?" They don't blink an eye when they kill people. ”

The boy stuck out his tongue mischievously and hid aside.

The people in charge of the donation are the people of the school department, and the people in the school department are a group of scholars, and the background is Yang Xiong, so they are also the most daring to say and do in these departments.

When the group of brocade guards came to the donation office, the steward said coldly: "Donations?" ”

The Jinyi guards shook their heads.

"Then please leave quickly and don't disturb the people behind."

"Haha, who's behind it?" Captain Jinyi said with a smile.

"Then I'm sorry for you to leave." The steward continued.

Captain Jinyi sneered and said, "Mr. Lu, come here." ”

Lu Hanyi walked over, and the steward looked Lu Hanyi up and down and asked, "Do you want to donate?" How much to donate? ”

"A thousand stones of medicinal herbs." Saying this, Lu Hanyi felt that his heart was dripping blood, and the onlookers were also surprised when they heard this number, which local tyrant is this? So rich?
