Chapter 170: Not Found
Since Bai Churuo was named a female imperial doctor, there are not many people who come to her for medical treatment, and there are quite a few people who ask her to go to the banquet for dinner. Naturally, she had no interest in any of them, so she rejected them all.
On the contrary, Bai Churuo has recently put more energy into the acquisition of the medical center.
Xiaolan collected the situation of the medical halls in the capital, "Miss, after the slave went to investigate, she found that there were more than 80 medical halls in the capital?" 200 pharmacies! ”
"Normal, the capital is so big! Of course, there are many pharmacies in the medical center where you can see a doctor! Bai Churuo said, "However, some pharmacies are chain stores, and there may be a boss behind the scenes." ”
"Well, there are a few drugstores that are indeed chains." Xiaolan said, "The slave maid also discovered that there are six or seven medical centers that have been transferred recently, and there are more than ten that are not well managed. ”
Bai Churuo nodded, "It's a lot less than I imagined, that proves that they can open a medical hall, and what I said before that I made them unable to open a medical hall is completely different." ”
"So, what are we going to do now?" Xiaolan asked.
"You go to Chang Yi and ask him to talk to the transferred medical centers, and then try to talk to the medical centers that are not running well but are still open, and if so, let those medical centers join the hospital! If we can't talk about it, then let's find a way to invest in them and take their share of profits. ”
"Yes, Miss." Xiaolan said.
Otherwise, Chang Yi and Xiaolan are Bai Churuo's favorite domestic servants, and within a few days of her orders, those who transferred came over at the most favorable price to make a branch, and then eighty percent of the dozen or so that were not well managed talked about getting income after investment, and the other party was willing to buy goods on her side in order to ensure profits, and the channels for purchasing goods on her side were very favorable.
After doing all this, Bai Churuo began to make plans for the next step.
"Xiaolan, you and Chang Yi go and arrange activities in the hospital, and all my branches will do activities together." Bai Churuo said.
"Okay." Xiaolan said.
All the medical centers that Bai Churuo bought were replaced with new hospital signs, and then began to make medicines, daily necessities she invented, and a wide range of free clinics, which could not only expand their reputation but also attract patients to see a doctor, but it did not cost much.
Not only that, Bai Churuo also summoned Peony back, and asked Chang Yi to accompany her to the capital to buy those resold shops and open hotel branches.
In a short period of time, Bai Churuo has become the owner of more than a dozen medical clinics and seven or eight hotels, and some of them have completely bought all the stores, and they will just sit and wait for the income in the future.
On this day, Young Master Gu seemed to have clues about the matter that he asked him to investigate last time, and she made an appointment with Bai Churuo to go to the private room of the branch of her hotel.
Young Master Gu still came to the meeting wearing the clothes of a domestic servant, and he saluted and said, "See the princess." ”
"Excuse me!" Bai Churuo said.
Young Master Gu said, "I heard that the hospital has branches all over the city recently. ”
"Who did you listen to?" Bai Chu heard this.
"Everyone is talking." Young Master Gu said.
"It's true that there are a few branches, but it's too exaggerated to spread all over the city." Bai Churuo said.
"I'll tell you." Young Master Gu said.
Bai Churuo said, "Actually, I don't understand one thing, that is, why every time those medical centers in my hospital are targeted, all of them go out of business after the incident, and even go to prison or even die, I suspect that someone is targeting me!" ”
Young Master Gu nodded, "Your guess is good, I have also had a guess in this regard recently, so I have also paid attention to this aspect, if there are any clues, I will definitely inform the princess." ”
Bai Churuo smiled when he heard this, "Young Master Gu doesn't have to take this matter to heart, I have always gone with the flow!" And your body is a little better, and you can't stand too much tossing. ”
"I'll pay attention to this, after all, I've finally raised my body well, and I can't give up all my efforts." Young Master Gu said.
Bai Churuo didn't come today to say this, so he asked directly, "So, did Young Master Gu find a clue to my father's traces?" ”
"Not bad!" Young Master Gu said.
When Bai Churuo heard this, his eyes lit up, "Let's talk about it." ”
"Your father is in Yucheng." Young Master Gu said.
When Bai Churuo heard this, he stood up, "Yucheng? ”
"Don't get excited, sit down and listen to me slowly." Young Master Gu said.
Bai Churuo sat down again, "Asked, how did you know?" ”
"The prefect's authority can investigate cases of missing persons and can also check household registration." Young Master Gu said, "I did my investigation and used the elimination method, and in the end, I felt that there was only one person who met the requirements the most, and that was a middle-aged man in Yucheng. ”
Bai Churuo nodded, "And then?" Where is the address? If he is alive, why doesn't he come back? ”
Young Master Gu showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.
Bai Churuo felt that there was something that was difficult for her to accept, so Young Master Gu had some scruples.
"If you have anything, you can say it, and I can accept it." Bai Churuo said.
Young Master Gu continued, "Originally, if he died elsewhere after disappearing, or if the other party lived alone somewhere, he might not be able to find it!" However, the other party is not either! ”
When he said this, he looked at Bai Churuo's eyes a little more complicated, "He has a new identity in Yucheng, because he must have this identity to marry a wife and have children, even if no one knows this identity, as long as it is recorded, it can be matched." From age, appearance, etc., all these must be registered. ”
When Bai Chu heard this, he didn't expect that his father would marry another wife and have children, no wonder Young Master Gu would look embarrassed, just because he was afraid that she would think too much.
But if the original owner is afraid that he will really think about it, the current Bai Churuo has nothing to do with the so-called father, so there are no emotional waves.
What Bai Chu wants to do is to find his father and live this life for the original owner. So, now that this thing has happened, then she just needs to do it well.
Bai Churuo said, "So, where is the detailed address?" Is it convenient for me to go and see it? ”
"The address is on Zhao Yuanwai's house on Yucheng South Street, and your father is now in Zhao Yuanwai's house." Young Master Gu said, "But that Zhao Yuanwai seems to be very good to your father, saying that he wants to take care of the family business for him." ”
"You even inquired about this?" Bai Churuo asked.
"Yes." Young Master Gu said, "When I went to ask, I asked some questions by the way, and the person who handled the matter was quite clever and inquired in detail about all aspects. ”
"I see." Bai Churuo said and muttered for a long time.
In the end, he figured out something, and said to Young Master Gu, "Young Master Gu, no matter what, thank you for finding the news of my father for me, and I will solve the rest of the things myself, and I will treat you to this meal." ”
Young Master Gu didn't refuse, but said, "This is what I should do." ”
"There's nothing you shouldn't have." Bai Churuo said with a smile, "But if there is anything else in the future, Young Master Gu must also help." ”
"Of course." Young Master Gu said.
In order to thank him, Bai Churuo asked the hotel to serve more signature dishes, and asked while beckoning Young Master Gu to eat, "How is it?" How is Gu Mansion doing lately? ”
"It's good." Young Master Gu said, "Ye Xiang doesn't have the time to embarrass the Mansion, a few days ago, because of the trouble between him and Ying Tianfu Mansion Yin until now, there are still many people in the court and the central government who are impeaching him!" Even if this matter comes to an end, it is estimated that there will be a long time when they will not rashly do anything to the prefect's mansion. ”
Bai Churuo nodded and said, "That's good, I'm afraid that your Gu Mansion will be embarrassed again." ”
"Not anymore, not in the future!" Young Master Gu's face showed unprecedented firmness, "If I don't go to the Patron Mansion in the future, I won't be embarrassed, and the people I want to protect won't be embarrassed." ”
If Bai Chu heard this, when he said that he was his sweetheart, it was normal for him to have this kind of thought.
After eating, Bai Churuo returned to the palace.
Murong Jiuqing was lying on the bed, shaking one leg very comfortably.
"Hey, you didn't go out today?" Bai Churuo asked.
"Nope!" Murong Jiuqing said.
"Okay...... Let me tell you something. Bai Churuo sat on the edge of the bed and said softly, "I may have to go out in the near future." ”
"Where are you going?" Murong Jiuqing sat up when he heard this.
"I'm going to Yucheng." Bai Churuo said.
"The town we went to the ghost town last time?" Murong Jiuqing asked.
"yes, I didn't expect you to remember." Bai Churuo said.
"I almost couldn't get out of the mountains, of course I remember!" Murong Jiuqing frowned and asked, "What are you doing in Yucheng?" ”
"I'm going to find my father." Bai Churuo said.
Murong Jiuqing was stunned, in fact, he had already received the news of Master Bai, and after learning that he had another wife and children, he did not continue to investigate, let alone find someone to tell Bai Churuo the news. He also knew that the Gu family was helping Bai Churuo find his father, but he didn't expect to find clues so quickly.
"Then I'm going too." Murong Jiuqing knew Bai Churuo, and it was impossible for her not to go, so it would be better for him to follow.
"No!" Bai Churuo said, "I went to Yucheng to find my father because I had to go, but it must be very dangerous along the way. ”
"If you don't let me go, then you won't be allowed to go." Murong Jiuqing said.
"Don't make a fuss!" Bai Churuo said.
When Murong Jiuqing heard this, he didn't agree, and even hugged her at night and didn't let her go anywhere.
Bai Churuo thought about it, it was not difficult for this guy to fool the past, so he didn't mention the matter of leaving the palace to find his father after that, but waited for the next day when Murong Jiuqing was not paying attention, he quietly changed his clothes and secretly hired a few guards to go on the road together.
Bai Chu didn't want to alarm others, and she had always remembered what 'Blood Moon' said, there were spies around her! So she won't be notified to anyone! As for Hei Feng, it was Murong Jiuqing's secret guard, and she would definitely listen to Murong Jiuqing's telling her not to go out, so she had to make this decision.
Bai Churuo traveled in disguise as a man, and went on horseback, so it was much faster, not to mention the trip, she estimated that if she continued to rush like this, she was afraid that she would be able to reach Yangcheng in less than a month, and then she would soon be able to reach Yucheng by water.
At night, Bai Churuo sat and slept by the tree, and the rest of the guards took turns to keep vigil and rest.
The sky before dawn was dark for a moment, but their fires lit up the surroundings.
If Bai Chu was woken up by a gust of wind, the wind in this winter was very cold, and it was already very lucky that there was no rain or snow at the moment.
If Bai Chu didn't wake up tightly, she couldn't sleep as soon as she opened her eyes, and one of the guards she hired kept staring at her.
As if he had noticed that Bai Churuo was looking at him, the guard looked away.
Bai Churuo bit her lip and didn't say anything, because she was afraid that what she said would happen to her and the other party would be angry and angry at her. But if she really wants to do it, she is not completely unprepared.
Bai Churuo put his hand close to the position of his purse, preparing to release poison or kill them with a silver needle if the other party had any evil intentions.
However, the guards did not do anything until dawn.
The group set off again, and when it was close to noon, they happened to encounter a tea shed.
Bai Churuo and his entourage stopped here to eat and drink water to replenish their strength.
Bai Churuo has a table for one person, and the five guards sit at a table.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Bai Churuo always felt that the five guards were looking at her intentionally or unintentionally.
Xiao Er, who served the food, put the meat and steamed buns up, but made a strange gesture at Bai Churuo, and quickly left as if nothing happened, and no one else found out.
If Bai Chu didn't understand correctly, the second little boy in this shop asked Bai Chu not to eat these things, why is this? Is it toxic?
If Bai Chu picked up the meat and steamed buns and smelled them, there was indeed a faint strange smell, if he didn't pay attention to it carefully, it would be difficult to find such a difference.
Bai Churuo pretended to eat, and after a while, he pretended to be poisoned and lay on the table and pretended to faint.
The next moment, the guards stood up, and one of them said, "Kill her and the shopkeeper." ”
The shopkeeper over there was about to run, but was caught by several guards.
The shopkeeper begged for mercy and said, "A few heroes spare their lives, I don't know each other with you, please let go!" And I'm not going to tell you what you're doing. ”
"Hehe, I don't want to kill you either, but unfortunately I can't!"
When the guard finished speaking, he raised his sword and dropped it.
Bai Churuo suddenly straightened up and said, "What do you want to do?" ”
Several of the guards were taken aback when they saw this.
One of them said, "Huh? You weren't even poisoned! He carried the knife, immediately changed his face and pointed at the shopkeeper and shouted, "You told her?" ”
"I ...... I, I, I'......," the shopkeeper stammered, not daring to tell the truth.
Bai Churuo said, "I'm a doctor!" I don't need to be told, I can smell whether there is poison in this food. ”。
The guards were obviously blinded again, but soon the men showed a hideous look again, "Whatever you are, you must die today." ”
