Zhang Baoer said goodbye to Zhao Feng and went straight to Xishi with Uncle Hua and Jiang Yuqiao. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the West Market, I saw a middle-aged man selling porcelain with a porcelain bottle and accosted him: "Guest officer, buy one, this is from the palace!" ”
"Wandering out of the palace?" Zhang Bao'er shook her head and smiled: "You can keep it for yourself!" ”
Zhang Baoer was about to walk forward, but suddenly heard a "poof", and the porcelain vase fell to the ground and shattered.
Zhang Baoer was slightly stunned, but heard the middle-aged man say indignantly: "If you don't buy it, you won't buy it, and you can't drop the bottle!" No, you'll have to compensate me! ”
After that, the middle-aged man was going to come up and pull Zhang Bao'er's collar.
Uncle Hua gently pushed, and the middle-aged man withdrew a few steps away, and sat on the ground.
"Come on, this man smashed my porcelain and beat people! There is no royal law! ”
With the shouts of the middle-aged man, more than a dozen men surrounded him in an instant.
Zhang Baoer had already seen that these men in front of him were not good people, he had just returned to Chang'an, and he didn't want to cause trouble here, so he said to the middle-aged man on the ground: "Even if I break your things, I will pay you compensation." Say, how much silver? ”
"If you are willing to pay, how can I be in such trouble?" The middle-aged man got up and said with a cruel smile: "I don't want much, five hundred taels of silver is enough!" ”
"Five hundred taels of silver?" Zhang Bao'er frowned: "Your thing is not even worth two taels of silver, I'll give you ten taels of silver, and that's it!" ”
"Ten taels of silver, where can this be?" The middle-aged man said in a vicious voice: "Five hundred taels of silver, not a penny less!" ”
Zhang Bao'er smiled coldly and said: "I have decided now, I will not give you a penny, you can only use any tricks!" ”
"Yo he, you kid is playing horizontally, then don't blame us for being rude!" As soon as the middle-aged man beckoned, the dozen or so men surrounded Zhang Bao'er with their guys.
Zhang Bao'er was also annoyed, turned her head and said, "Uncle Hua, don't be polite to them!" ”
As soon as Zhang Bao'er's words fell, Jiang Yuqiao and Uncle Hua were like a game, and pounced on these dozen or so people at the same time. In an instant, all of them fell to the ground and wailed.
"You wait!" The middle-aged man glanced at Zhang Bao'er resentfully, and quickly turned to leave.
Zhang Baoer didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, and continued to walk forward with Jiang Yuqiao and Uncle Hua.
After walking a few steps, he saw a shop with a lot of customers, Zhang Baoer turned to Jiang Yuqiao and said: "Father-in-law, this is the famous Xishi drink, it is said that drinking it can cure all diseases." Let's try! ”
The three of them finally found a place to sit down, and Zhang Bao'er introduced with a smile: "Father-in-law, the business here is surprisingly good, and it will take a while before it will be our turn to serve drinks!" ”
Jiang Yuqiao smiled and said, "It's not in the way, it's not in the way, we have time anyway, Bao'er, I really haven't tasted this Xishi drink, you tell me about its origin, let me also have a long insight!" ”
"Father-in-law, in fact, this Xishi drink was originally just used to make a living in the Jianghu Langzhong. Earlier, there was a family of four in Jiangnan, who had to leave their hometown and live in Chang'an City because of a famine in their hometown. But the whole family, with no livelihood skills, how to fill their stomachs is really a top priority. Coincidentally, there is a widowed old lady next door who is sick, and there is no extra money for treatment, the father's surname is Zhu, originally a private school Mr., after teaching, he has studied medicine books for several years, in line with the principle of dead horses as live horse doctors, he tried to prescribe a prescription at the moment, let his daughter catch the side medicine for the old lady to drink, I don't want the old lady to be alive for two days, and the disease is all gone. When the news came out, some nearby people also came to Mr. Zhu for medical treatment, and they were all miraculously cured. Mr. Zhu's daughter had an idea and immediately persuaded her father to open a small shop specializing in selling this supernatural decoction for curing diseases. Mr. Zhu was still hesitant, because his decoction prescription only used three or four ordinary medicinal materials, and the price was extremely low, so he was really unsure about the cure. But he couldn't stand his daughter's repeated persuasion, and finally went into battle. He also gave the decoction a name called "Drink", so the "Zhujia Drinker in the West Market" pharmacy finally opened. Unexpectedly, after the shop opened, the business was unexpectedly hot, and there was an endless stream of people who came to buy soup medicine. At first, some people also asked about prescriptions and pathologies, and asked for a pulse consultation, but the daughter of the Zhu family was very clever and all blocked the drive, only saying that spending 50 yuan to buy a dose of drink can cure the disease after eating. It seems that no matter what kind of disease you have, as long as this medicine is imported, the disease will be cured. As a result, the reputation of the miracle medicine for curing diseases has spread, and the price of the drink has also risen by 100 yuan per dose, so it is still in short supply. People from far and near, all come here to buy medicine, every day the door is like a market, there are countless guests, the noise is full of the capital, and even some people take money to guard the door, waiting for six or seven days to buy a dose of medicine, and finally they don't buy medicine. The Zhu family then changed the current big house in the West Market, with the front facing the street house as a storefront, and the back yard being inhabited, and the whole family went into battle together, supporting a cauldron in the backyard of the mansion, turning day and night, cutting and boiling medicine non-stop, so as to make the sales of drinks uninterrupted. In just a few years, the Zhu family has become rich quickly and has become a wealthy family in the capital, and the Zhu family in Xishi is also known as a must in Chang'an because of "a thousand kinds of diseases, the entrance is cured, and one hundred texts are served". ”
"Guest, your drink!" Xiao Er greeted the three of them with a drink.
"I'm going to taste it, and I'll see ......"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Before Jiang Yuqiao's words were finished, a group of people came towards the store.
The middle-aged man who was selling porcelain just now appeared in front of them again, and there were more than a dozen people behind him.
The man who had suffered a loss before said to the leader behind him: "It's them!" ”
"Father-in-law, I won't bother your old man this time, let Uncle Hua go, I don't want anyone to disturb our Yaxing!" Zhang Baoer said to Jiang Yuqiao.
Jiang Yuqiao nodded and said to Uncle Hua: "Lao Hua, go!" Don't delay too long! ”
"Owner, I understand!" Uncle Hua got up and walked towards the others.
After a while, Uncle Hua clapped his hands and came back, and asked with a smile, "Island Master, how does this drink taste?" ”
Uncle Hua sat down, and before the drink was put in his mouth, he smiled bitterly at Zhang Bao'er and said, "Uncle, someone is here again......"
Zhang Bao'er didn't raise her head and waved her hand: "The old rule, just throw it out!" ”
Uncle Hua whispered: "Uncle, I'm afraid, it's not so easy this time!" ”
"Oh?" Zhang Bao'er raised her head, it turned out that the people who were bustling drinking and drinking had long since disappeared, and the three of them were surrounded by a hundred and ten officials.
