Chapter 10: The Great Fire
"Black-hearted shop, return the money. ”
"That's it, Su Qinghuang, this kind of person has really lost all the face of the Su family. ”
"I'll just say, who in the entire Qingjun doesn't know what kind of tattered blank he Su Qinghuang is, it's really a hell of a person to be able to do business. ”
Don't be angry, everyone, calm down, the Su family will give you an explanation. When a group of people gathered in front of the door were about to indignantly step through the threshold of the Su family's shop, a fat man who was not from the Su family rushed to the front in order to stabilize the position, and let many slaps slap his meat-like body without paying attention.
"Wang Fatzi, it's none of your business, what kind of bad person are you here, is it really as rumored that you want to rob a man with Wu Muxin. ”
"Haha. ”
"Put, fart. Wang Fatzi was embarrassed by these words, blushing and arguing with others, thanks to the fact that he brought the Wang family's guards to guard outside the door, and the two old men who stayed behind were not affected.
Su Qinghuang came to the shop from the back door, if he dared to enter through the front door, the people at the door would have to tear him alive.
"How's the situation, Elder Wen. Su Qinghuang asked with a sad face.
"There must be someone behind this, these beasts, sell the dyeing of Coptis chinensis that is not in a good age, the old ginseng is also a fraud, Li Sanqian's bastard thing is evil, and the pot is all carried by our Su family. Wen Lao knocked the cigarette pouch on the edge and said angrily.
"Reputation, reputation is the most important thing, if Su Ye's reputation is ruined in the hands of a few of us, more than ten years later, who has the face to go down to see his old man, do you have it, do you have it." ”
"It's a problem. Su Qinghuang held a coptis in his hand and played with it casually, and after a while, his palms were full of the kind of turmeric that was unique to the dye.
"The disaster is my fault, it's not ladylike, it's time for me, the person in charge, to shoulder the responsibility, it's really not good to hide here like a turtle with a shrunken head, go to the front, no matter what tricks the people behind it, let's give it a follow." Saying that, he limped up, and several old men looked behind Su Qinghuang, I have to say, it is really a bit heroic, I hope this time, but don't be slapped by the people in front of me.
"You say, do you mean something about Su Ye back then? Elder Wen said ill-intentionedly.
"It's still a long way off. ”
"It's this way, a little bit of that taste, do you remember the night when Su Ye wanted to take a concubine, the movement in the house was worse than the pig killed in the New Year, and the next day Su Ye walked exactly the same as this. ”
"Are you saying that the young owner also moved the idea of taking a concubine and was moved by the young grandmother? No, Mu Xin, that girl, let's watch grow up, how gentle and sensible you are. ”
"Don't you say that, the more calm the temperament on weekdays, the more intense the reaction when she touches her bottom line. "Old Wen looks like a person who has come over.
"Bullshit, we've all been singles all our lives, where do you have so much experience. ”
"You two are raw melon eggs, I'm different, when I was young, I was a famous handsome student in Qingjun, who came to propose marriage, and broke the threshold of my family. ”
Then he took the girl to the straw pile, and was stunned that he didn't do anything all night, and he just looked at the moon and stars. ”
"You. "Wen Lao was exposed, his breath almost didn't come up, and he hurriedly drank saliva to suppress it, this person is old, and he will always become a child's temperament.
"Let one, let one, the young owner is here. There was a lot of whining in front of him, but suddenly there was silence, and everyone looked at the white young man who was surrounded by people with anticipation, and then.
"Su Qinghuang, this scourge has come out, call me. I don't know who agitated in the crowd like this, and then the tattered medicinal herbs that were sold before were thrown towards the door of the shop, Su Qinghuang didn't dodge, let those firewood and rhubarb throw over, fortunately, they were all small things, and they couldn't smash people, until the things were thrown away, and then he slowly spoke.
"Let's finish spilling it, if it's done, you should say a few words, even a murderer always has to give a chance to appeal, don't you. "Su Qinghuang is standing upright.
"I think there is no one present who doesn't know me Su Qinghuang, and I can roughly guess what everyone thinks in their hearts. ”
"Let's not say much about other polite words, it's not easy for everyone to beg for food in this world, and the medicinal material business has become more and more difficult in the past few years, but conscience will not be wrong at any time. ”
As soon as he said this, there was already a voice of disdain and ridicule below, throwing a bunch of messes to Miss Wu for her own patronage, conscience, when did he Su Qinghuang have that thing.
Su Qinghuang was not angry, but continued.
"The people at the bottom must be thinking about what you Su Qinghuang is, and the Su family is such a tattered thing, and now they are still pointing fingers, the Su family started from the old lady for three generations, and the first two generations can afford the name of this hanging pot to help the world, only me, not to mention the people who lost their ancestors, and also made the business a mess, the old man knows that there is such an unscrupulous descendant in the sky, and it is estimated that he will be choked when he drinks saliva. ”
"But there's no way, I chose the personnel before this, even if something happens, I have to carry it when the sky falls. Su Qinghuang looked gentle and continued.
"There are long queues in front of this door, there are old people, there are children, there are women, I know that everyone is not rich, make up a few taels of broken silver to buy a formula to replenish the body, if you see the effect how happy it should be, and even some of them are really waiting for this help, I think how much faith it must be, so that they can wait quietly under the anxiety of their hearts like soup. “
"It is said that the doctor is benevolent, with this heart, others can give their lives to you with confidence, thinking about how good it is to say thank you with our Qingjun accent when you hand them the medicinal materials. ”
Someone at the bottom will smile, of course it is Wang Fatzi.
"There are still a lot of medicinal materials left in the shop, and some people persuaded me that there are still more than half of the medicinal materials left in the shop, and the effect is almost good, but it is absolutely impossible to eat the dead, and we all know how difficult it is for the Su family to come to this point, and how much this loss can be reduced. ”
"But I said, yes, this medicine is immortal, but it lacks virtue, it lacks virtue, what kind of business do you have, why should people trust you with their lives. ”
"Take it out. Su Qinghuang motioned behind him, and a small servant carried out the packed medicinal materials one by one.
"All the remaining medicinal materials of this batch are here, all kinds of piles full of five big bags, thousands of taels of silver, who is not distressed, to be honest, I also hesitated, but this time, Su Qinghuang asked the fathers and villagers of the entire Qingjun County to be a witness. As he spoke, he took the torch that came from behind him, and then said loudly.
"Anyway, I, Su Qinghuang, have always been a loser, and I have been defeated for four or five years, and it is not bad what I am today. ”
......
Later, there was a book record that on the fourth day of the second month of the lunar calendar, the fourth of Sujiabei, the medicinal materials were burned in one thousand taels, and the fire was filled with thick smoke, and half rushed to the blue sky.
"Good. It was the person who led the fat man Wang who was the first to shout.
And with this encouragement, the rest of the people began to cater one after another, at first there were only a few scattered points, but as the fire got bigger and bigger, more people began to applaud, until finally, except for a few few, the old and young of Qingjun cheered for Su Qinghuang for the first time, not to mention anything else, at least this courage, deserved this applause.
"Thank you, thank you. Su Qinghuang was shy at this time, laughing with the big girl, and kept bowing.
Fortunately, there were not many people who bought that batch of medicinal materials, and most of them were old customers, otherwise he really didn't know how to end it this time.
"Qinghuang, what you just said is really good. Wang Fatzi twisted his body and squeezed to the front, his greasy and shiny face full of sincerity.
"I know there is a big silver gap in the shop this time, I brought it all, you can see if it is enough. As he spoke, he took out a dozen silver tickets from his bosom.
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse me first, when your shop improves and you make money, it's not too late to pay it back. Wang Fatzi said softly, Su Qinghuang is the first time to see people asking for cashiers, but now is indeed not the time to be polite to hypocrisy.
"It's like you're taking a stake. Solemnly accepting the silver ticket, Su Qinghuang said embarrassedly, "Also, Wang, well, Wang Fugui, I have written down this favor, thanks to the people you brought today to support the field, otherwise this matter will not end well." Su Qinghuang called such an awkward name, this name was given by Wang Fugui's father, in order to make this fat man rich and rich for the rest of his life.
"Between us, we don't need to talk about this. Wang Fatzi lowered his head and looked at his toes, which made Su Qinghuang feel that this favor was really awkward.
"Don't talk about this, do you remember all the people who made the coax just now?"
Wang Fugui patted his chest and said: "Of course, they all say that my Wang Fugui is too honest on weekdays, and they don't want to think about it, if I don't have a little heart, the little family business I inherited from the old man, I would have been ruined a long time ago, how can I get by now, I would have ordered people to follow." ”
"Then teach them a good lesson behind their backs, and tell them that the Su family will be useless and declining, and not everyone can ride on their heads. ”
"The way you used to let people throw eggs and didn't dodge, I really thought that you would become the great sage who spit on himself, okay, leave this matter to me, and I promise to help you do it completely. After the silver ticket was given, Wang Fatzi walked out excitedly, and saw the playful eyes of a few people behind him.
"Saints, just look at their clay golden bodies living on top of the temple, and how many people can know about the flies and dogs behind them. Su Qinghuang muttered, looking at the fat man's round figure, he always felt that he owed an emotional debt, and he was unspeakably uncomfortable.
"Zizi, this silver ticket, to say the least, there are three or four thousand taels, and the owner has a lot of face, how to say this, it is called a bride price. Wen Lao said enviously, holding the silver ticket, it was almost a spent, and he estimated that if they could come with a few thousand taels, they would be able to tie Su Qinghuang with a rope and send it to the palace.
"People's hearts are not ancient, people's hearts are not ancient. Su Qinghuang's face was full of pain, spending the money he earned from selling it, don't the old people hate it.
