Zuo Gui's face was gloomy, just now he also saw Ni Er standing opposite, and he also heard him coaxing and instigating the creditors to go to the yamen. His heart was full of anger, and he said, "Why did he harm me so much? ”

Zhao Sanniang said: "Hi! Besides, the last time he came to your cousin to buy a son, he spoke ugly, and he was beaten out by a fennel broom, and he held a grudge! You have to be wary of this kind of villain. You can't have the heart of harming people, and you can't have the heart of letting people go! - Alright, I'm leaving. ”

"Thank you Sanniang for the reminder!"

"Where's the matter, you rent my house, it's not like a family, I don't help you guys, hehe"

As she spoke, Zhao Sanniang twisted her waist and left. The butcher also smiled dryly and followed behind. Guizhitang returned to its former calm.

Fennel scooped a wooden basin of water for Zuo Shaoyang to wash the blood on the feet of the little squirrel. Zuo Gui frowned and said, "This little thing is so vicious, it's better not to support the family." ”

Fennel helped Zuo Shaoyang and said: "Dad, this little squirrel raised by my brother has always been very docile before, but I saw that the iron head was too fierce, and I used my head to hurt the big man who lent money, and I saw him with his head against my brother, so I pounced on him from the beam of the house. ”

Zuo Shaoyang also laughed and said: "Yes, Dad, if it weren't for the yellow ball to suppress the iron head, I'm afraid that today would not know how to end." ”

Zuo Gui thought about what happened just now, the iron head was so fierce, men, women and children were able to do it, and they had to take away all the money, and the creditors would never give up, at that time, it was thanks to the little squirrel that he was injured to stabilize the situation, he sighed, shook his head, and said: "Even so, it is still too sharp, and it is better to restrain it and not cause trouble." ”

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly agreed, and after washing the blood of the little squirrel's paws, he put it back in the nest, but the little squirrel swished twice, ran out of the nest and fell to the ground, climbed up his body along his trouser legs, and squatted on his shoulders.

Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile: "Huangqiu, it's not a matter for you to squat on my shoulder like this, I know that I am a doctor, and if I don't know, I think I am a monkey!" ”

Fennel giggled and said, "That's easy, I'll sew a small pocket for you later, you can tie it around your waist and put him in your pocket." ”

"Well, that's a good idea. It's the size of a fist, so it's okay to carry it in your pocket. ”

Fennel said to Zuo Shaoyang again: "What medicinal materials have you concocted that can make the medicine cabinet feel moved?" This old man is a very good businessman, and he has never seen a true Buddha and does not burn incense......"

Zuo Gui waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, come back and talk about it, the medicine cabinet is still waiting for Zhong'er to repair the warehouse." Go for it! ”

Zuo Shaoyang was about to go out when he suddenly saw an old man standing across the street, looking at him with a smile behind his back. It is the medicine cabinet of Hengchang Pharmacy!

"Best wishes, uncle!" Zuo Shaoyang ran over, "I was about to go to your bank, but I happened to have something to do." ”

"Well, I saw everything just now, I know this guy Sang Laohan too well, he is an iron rooster who sees money and doesn't pull out a dime, and he is not a person who squanders money and money, besides, his little tea shop has no money to give him such a toss. Therefore, Sang Xiaomei took the dowry as a dowry for you, it must be her own idea, and I don't know how to be scolded when I go back......"

Zuo Shaoyang was anxious: "Then what should I do?" I'll go and talk to Daddy Sang! ”

"Aren't you going there now to add to the chaos? Hehe, don't worry, Daddy Sang, I'll tell him, just tell him not to embarrass the little sister. ”

Zuo Shaoyang was a little settled in his heart at this time, and arched his hand and said, "Thank you, uncle!" ”

This wishes the old shopkeeper and Daddy Sang were guys who supported the boat together in their early years, and now they are old tea customers in the tea shop. Daddy Sang wants to give some face. Of course, in order to solve this matter, in the end, the pawn dowry must be redeemed as soon as possible.

Zhu medicine cabinet stroked her gray beard and smiled: "This little girl is good to you, even the dowry is made out for you, she is not afraid that you will not be able to pay it back, and you will not be able to marry without a dowry?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, thinking that since you have seen it and know that I am going to sell it to you, but you have been standing across the street to watch the excitement, and you have not come to prove it.

The medicine cabinet seemed to see his dissatisfaction, stroked his white beard and whispered: "To be honest, don't be angry, the old man thinks that there is no need for your Guizhitang to open again, your father's medical skills, the medicine shop can't leave." It's better to close the door and care for the elderly at home, and you can also rest assured that you can be a concoction master in my pharmacy. You'll earn enough money to cover your family's expenses. He can also live well. So I didn't come forward. Of course, if you really go to our medicine store to find me, I will still do you this favor and buy your prescription for ten taels of silver. I didn't expect the little sister of the Sang family to come with such a hand, hehe, it is also your Guizhitang life that should not be extinguished. Hey hey"

It turned out that this medicine cabinet had this idea, Zuo Shaoyang listened to it, and he admired it a little in his heart, thinking that this medicine cabinet was also frank in his words, what he wanted, a cannon barrel, and he was not afraid of being annoyed, but Zuo Shaoyang had a little more good impression of the medicine cabinet, and it would be relatively easy to deal with such a straightforward person, and he generally didn't have to worry about being tricked.

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Then let's go?" ”

"It's not busy, they're cleaning up the warehouse site, let's go first and sign the contract with your father before we go."

After that, Zhu Medicine Cabinet stepped into Guizhi Hall, and arched his hand: "Zuo Langzhong!" ”

Zuo Gui had already seen him coming, and he had already gotten up and arched his hand: "I wish the old shopkeeper, take a look!" ”

The Guizhi Hall of the Zuo family has three rooms, the main hall sees a doctor, and the side rooms on both sides live with people to put medicinal herbs. There is no place to separate the special living room, so you can only meet guests in the lobby. Fennel hurriedly brought a chair over and placed it next to the long table.

Zhu medicine cabinet did not sit, smiled and said: "Ling Lang must have told you, my Hengchang Pharmacy is ready to sign a contract with Guitang, entrust Guixing to concoct a few flavors of medicinal materials, I have already asked the master of the medicine store to determine the amount of these medicinal materials for an hour, if your bank has no opinion, just write a deed." "I wish the medicine cabinet to say how much to concoct every hour of a few flavors of medicine.

Zuo Gui was very happy when he heard this, it turned out that all this was true, and immediately looked at Zuo Shaoyang: "Zhong'er, what do you think?" ”

The amount of each hour of the five flavor medicines mentioned in the medicine cabinet is calculated according to the processing method used in the early Tang Dynasty, and in the method of the early Tang Dynasty, the time of **, myrrh and earth dragon is almost the same. However, the preparation of Chuanwu and Caowu is to use ash artillery, and the modern method is to soak and bleaching with water for a long time, and then boil for a long time. There is not enough time in this regard, however, Zhu Medicine Cabinet is worried that the new medicine will not sell well, this is the first time to customize medicinal materials, and I don't know what method Zuo Shaoyang uses and how much time it takes, I have already said that I will not let Zuo Shaoyang suffer, so I made a discount and only stipulated half of the amount. Fortunately, most of the time spent on these herbs is soaking and boiling, and they don't need much manpower to take care of them, just prepare a few more large pots and make a few more pots. It's not good to bargain at first. So Zuo Shaoyang said: "This time can almost be completed, so it's decided." ”

Zhu Yaojie said: "Okay, the old man drafted the deed, and the two of them revised it in a glance." Zuo Gui hurriedly gave up his position, sat down in the medicine cabinet, picked up a pen and wrote a contract, and wrote down the content that he and Zuo Shaoyang had agreed on one by one. Zuo Gui and Zuo Shaoyang put forward some detailed opinions. After the final draft, Zuo Gui copied two copies, which were signed and signed by Zuo Gui on the medicine cabinet and Zuo Gui. Keep one copy of each.

Zhu Medicine Cabinet said again: "I want to hire Ling Lang to help build a medicinal herb warehouse, and I may have to work hard for Ling Lang these days." If the rated processing amount cannot be completed during the construction of the warehouse, it can be postponed. ”

With this agreement, one or two or five dollars of silver will be credited to the account every month in the future, and Zuo Gui suddenly decided that this two or five dollars of silver is enough for the cost of the pharmacy. In the future, if you see a doctor and earn a penny, you will earn more penny. It was really joy from the sky, and the only thing that was uneasy was that he was afraid that the medicinal herbs concocted by his son would be dissatisfied, cause disputes or terminate the contract. Because the contract stipulates that the drug store can unilaterally terminate the contract if the sales of the concocted pharmaceutical materials are not smooth. But now it seems that Zhu Yaojie is still very interested in this concocted medicinal material, and his heart is a little settled. When they were gone, they sat there with a smile, wondering what was going on.

Zuo Shaoyang and Zhu Medicine Cabinet left Guizhi Hall and came to Hengchang Pharmacy.

Zhu Yao's son, Zhu Zhang, had already heard his father say this, and he was quite unimpressed, but this was something that his father decided, and he didn't dare to disobey it. The guys have been instructed to vacate the place where the medicinal herb warehouse needs to be built. They also brought in builders and waited there.

After Zuo Shaoyang came, he also checked the surrounding situation, looked at the entire warehouse of the medicine store, and pointed out some places that were not conducive to the preservation of medicinal materials. At the beginning, the son of Zhu Zhu in the medicine cabinet pouted his lips and disagreed, listening to Zuo Shaoyang point out the problems they encountered in the storage of medicinal materials, as if they had seen it with their own eyes, then they lost their disdain and replaced it with a look of surprise and sincerity. Memorize the skills of storing medicinal materials that Zuo Shaoyang explained to him along the way.

At the end of the inspection, it was already noon, and the medicine cabinet ordered a banquet to be set up to entertain Zuo Shaoyang.

After eating, Zuo Shaoyang called the craftsman and told him his design requirements. According to Zuo Shaoyang's requirements, the design craftsman designed the construction drawings after on-site investigation, and Zuo Shaoyang proposed revisions for modification. When everything was done, it was already evening. Zuo Shaoyang then said goodbye and went home.

Zhu medicine cabinet has already prepared a cart of medicinal materials that need to be concocted, weighed it in front of Zuo Shaoyang, and drove Zuo Shaoyang to Guizhi Hall together.

The carriage staggered forward for a while, and when it was almost home, it suddenly stopped, and the guy who was driving seemed to be talking to someone, and then, the curtain of the car was raised, and the guy probed in: "Young Master Zuo, an uncle is looking for you to drink and asking if you want to go?" ”
