"Actually, we came today to ask Master Xie if he still needs medicinal herbs?"

"Herbs?" Mu Yu pretended to ponder, "I did hear the adults say that he needed to buy some medicinal materials a few days ago, but then I heard that the prices of the pharmacies in this city seem to have increased, and only the Liang family pharmacies are willing to sell them at the original price, so the adults are also ready to say a few good words for the Liang family pharmacies in front of the emperor, what's the matter, I don't know what the four shopkeepers mean by visiting today?" ”

When the four of them heard Mu Yu praising the Liang family pharmacy, they rubbed their hands nervously and regretfully, "Actually, we are also very guilty about this price increase, and you also know that there is an epidemic in the south, and it is difficult to buy all the medicinal materials, and we have no choice but to raise the price!" ”

"I see." Mu Yu nodded suddenly, "I can understand what a few shopkeepers said." After expressing her understanding, she stopped speaking.

Four people, you look at me, I look at you, and continued to say with difficulty, "We, we didn't know who was going to purchase so many medicinal materials before, we didn't think about it so much, when we heard someone ask for the price, we said the price of the current medicinal materials, and we didn't know until now that the person who bought the medicinal materials turned out to be Lord Xie." ”

"Yes, yes, we don't know until now." The four of them cooperated quite perfectly, "And Lord Xie still has to help the people when he buys medicinal materials, after we heard about this, we all regretted it, Lord Xie bought medicinal materials in order to help the people, we really shouldn't raise the price." ”

Mu Yu pursed his lips, his eyes were deep, "So that's the case, I said why my lord was a little depressed a few days ago, I asked for a long time, but he refused to say." ”

The four of them shrank and hurriedly sought Mu Yu's help, "My lord thinks he's depressed at this time?" Then please Mrs. be sure to help us say a few kind words in front of the adult, we really don't know that it is Lord Xie who buys the medicinal materials, if the adult still needs the medicinal materials now, we will definitely sell them at the original price. ”

"Yes, yes, if Lord Xie buys medicinal materials, we are willing to sell them at the original price."

Mu Yu frowned and sighed, "Since the matter is a misunderstanding, then I will help you explain this matter clearly in front of adults, and the misunderstanding will be solved, and it will be easy to do, but ......"

"I wonder what is wrong with Madame?" Several shopkeepers were confused, they came to the door to admit their mistakes, and took the initiative to reduce the price, is this not possible?

"I don't know, this medicinal material, the adults must need it, but as for the price, ......" Mu Yu secretly observed a few people with pale faces, and sneered in his heart.

Since you have bitten the price before, and want to make a lot of money when the country is in trouble, then you have to pay some price for your greed, and she will repay it.

"Actually, I shouldn't mention this price, everyone in charge has difficulties, and I understand it." She smiled considerately at the four of them, "But you should also know that this southern epidemic and the empty treasury are empty, and this matter about silver naturally has to be saved again and again." "Especially now that Xie Fu is advancing money, it's all his own money.

"What Madame said is reasonable, the country is in a difficult situation, and we should be considerate." One of the shopkeepers saw Mu Yu's bargaining posture, and there was a hint of retreat in his heart, "But it's not easy for us ordinary people, and we still have to support a few people at home, madam, you say so, we are actually very embarrassed." ”

As soon as these words came out, Mu Yu immediately withdrew the smile on his face, suppressed his throat, and said with a hint of disappointment, "Since this shopkeeper said so, then in my opinion, your sincerity is nothing more than that, it is the little woman's request that is difficult for a few, since this is the case, please go back." ”

Seeing that Mu Yu was about to send off the guests, the other three were all panicked, "Madame is angry, Madame is angry, our sincerity must be full, and please give Madam another chance, as for the price, we can discuss." ”

The shopkeeper who opened his mouth gave someone a look, and the other two nodded together, "Madam, let's discuss it again, can you see it?" ”

Mu Yu lowered her head slightly, and then changed her face again, although she was smiling on her face, her eyes were half-narrowed, with a calculating light, "A few shopkeepers, it's not that I have a bad temper, it's just that I'm here today, and I'll tell you the truth to a few of you." ”

"Madame, please speak."

Mu Yu stood up from his seat elegantly, walked to the middle of the hall, and said lightly, "To put it mildly, don't be angry, a few people here have raised the price of drugs privately for whatever reason a few days ago, which made the adults unhappy, and the emperor was not happy. ”

She glanced at the shopkeeper who was resigned just now, and said, "It's easy for you, the two mouths touch up and down, let me say good things for you in front of adults, I have a good heart, I don't want a few adults to be misunderstood, just say it, but it's different when adults speak in front of the emperor, how do you let the adults explain to the emperor?" ”

The four of them lowered their heads, and none of them dared to look at her. "Do you want your lord to tell the emperor that the pharmacy has lowered the price again?" She shrugged her shoulders and sneered, and raised her voice seriously, "What will the emperor think, he will think that my family is joking about the lives of the people in the south!" ”

Several people were cleverly surprised by Mu Yu's suddenly raised voice, and retorted in a panic, "It's a few of us who didn't think about it, I didn't expect the difficulties of adults, madam, what you said." ”

Four big men, hunched into chairs, is a funny thing. Mu Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled, and sat back in his place, "Don't blame me for speaking mercilessly, but in the end, this is the truth, several of them are also smart people, and I believe you can understand the difficulties." ”

The knife is gone, and then she has to give some sweetness, otherwise how can she attract more people? "But of course, the price of the shops in the entire capital has increased, and it can't just be said that the four shopkeepers are to blame, right?"

She turned her head sideways and smiled sweetly, "But if the four are the first to give a considerable price, then the adults will definitely remember the names of the four, and they will even pay tribute to the emperor. ”

People are all animals driven by interests in the end, and the four of them, who were still hesitating, heard Mu Yu's last words, gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, and agreed.

Mu Yu smiled and called a few guards, and immediately followed these shopkeepers to the pharmacy to get medicine. Things can't be delayed, lest there be long nights and dreams, who knows if these four people will suddenly regret it.

In short, she didn't give the four of them a chance to regret at all, and resolutely sent someone to take the medicine and send the money. When the four of them received the silver from Xie Fu, everyone's heart was dripping blood!

Where is this Lord Xie Dali Siqing, it is simply Zhou Peeling, forcing them to shed a layer of skin! Although the four of them suffered a dumb loss, when others came to investigate, they also said that they had earned money and gained benefits.

After all, they wouldn't slap themselves in the face and publicize this secret thing.

With this first batch of crab eaters, there are naturally many more people who have come forward and succeeded, but Mu Yu slaughtered each of them and saved a lot of money for Xie Fu.

At the same time, the first batch of medicinal materials has caught up with Xie Chongning's footsteps, and with it, there are also the "heroic deeds" of Mu Yu in the circle of pharmacies in the capital and how to buy medicinal materials at the original price.

Xie Chongning looked at the letter in his hand, and the frowning brow that had been frowning for several days eased, and there was a little more tenderness between his eyebrows.

The epidemic in the south is severe, and all of them have a thick layer of gauze covering their faces, covering their mouths and noses, and only their eyebrows and eyes can be seen.

"My lord, what good things do you say in this letter? My lord has been cold-faced for the past few days, and I am much relieved when I read the letter. Zhang Wei squinted and looked at Xie Chongning with a smile. Although she was a woman, she was not pretentious at all, like everyone else, riding on horseback and walking beside Xie Chongning.

On the other side of Xie Chongning, it was the dustless master who had changed his outfit. After leaving the temple, Master Wuchen changed into a dark blue ordinary robe, without any superfluous decorations on his body, and with a handsome face that could not show any traces of time, he was undoubtedly a good-looking little novice.

Xie Chongning said "um", which was counted as a response.

Zhang Wei, who didn't get an answer, was not discouraged, she looked back at the medicinal materials on the carriage, and couldn't help but sigh, "Your Excellency's subordinates are really neat, and they actually sent medicinal materials so quickly." ”

Wuchen also glanced at the medicinal herbs, and did not relax because of this, "My lord, these medicinal materials are far from enough. ”

Xie Chongning nodded, and returned to his previous indifferent appearance, "The prices of Chinese medicine shops in the capital have increased one after another, and we can only buy these for the time being." ”

Wuchen frowned, he couldn't agree with the businessmen's behavior of those healers, "When their family and country are in danger, they really shouldn't do this. ”

Zhang Wei looked at Wuchen with a little smile, "Master Wuchen is a monk, but he is greedy for mortals, so he naturally doesn't understand, now the epidemic in the south is a good opportunity for them to make money, how could they miss it." ”

Wuchen turned his head slowly and glanced at Zhang Wei, but didn't say anything.

Zhang Wei thought that Wuchen was acquiescing to her words, and continued, "It is not easy for Lord Xie to buy so many medicinal materials, and I will definitely make good use of these medicinal materials to develop the best medicine for the treatment of the epidemic." ”

Before Xie Chongning could give any answer, Wuchen said softly, "Since the price of medicine has risen one after another, your lord might as well leave the matter of purchasing medicinal materials to Mrs. to deal with." ”

Hearing this, Xie Chongning tilted his head, and a trace of surprise flashed quickly in his eyes, "Why did the master say this?" ”

"Madame is certainly smart, but this matter of purchasing medicinal materials is a big deal, and the master wants to hand over this matter to Madam Xie, it is a little too hasty, right?" Zhang Wei interjected.
