Chapter 168: Dumping the pot
Master Qian was arrested and imprisoned for more than half a month. During this period, there is no coarse tea and light rice every day, only the rancid steamed buns have no vegetables, and the sleeping place at night is often touched by mice.
I haven't taken a shower for half a month, and my body exudes a sour smell, and I unfortunately have a few lice as neighbors.
This half month is the most difficult half month in Mr. Qian's life.
Mrs. Qian sent people to the prison many times to investigate, because it was General Zhou who offended, and the lord of the government did not dare to release the order easily, so the money made by Mrs. Qian was not of any use.
"My lord, you have to think of a way, our lord usually doesn't contribute to you, you can't see death at this juncture and leave it all gone." Mrs. Qian sadly asked to see the lord of the palace.
"It's not that the official doesn't help, it's really the general who commands the three armies who is offended again, and he is directly sealed by the emperor himself, and even the official has to give three points when he sees it, please forgive the official for not being able to do anything." The lord of the government clearly pushed the matter to a clean end.
"Yes...... This... Anyway, let me go to see the master, he has always been pampered in the mansion and is used to it, and he can't bear the life in prison at all. "Mrs. Qian was worried about Master Qian, so she specially prepared a change of clothes and food when she came.
"There's really nothing you can do, so please go back."
The lord of the government said a few words of greetings and sent Mrs. Qian away, what kind of foolishness is it. On the other hand, he sent someone to inquire about what Mr. Qian offended General Zhou for.
After inquiring, it was because of Nalan Jin, which made the Lord of the Mansion suddenly curious.
"What kind of three-headed and six-armed figure is this Nalan Jin? Whatever you do, you can have anything to do with her. The lord of the mansion curiously touched the white marble statue in the room.
"I heard that He Jun was linked to the medicinal herb business, and Master Qian made a hindrance from it, which made General Zhou fall." Master replied vaguely.
"Idiot, he thought that he deserved to be imprisoned for showing off his might in front of me, and he had long wanted to give him a little bit of power, and ordered the people in prison to take more care of him."
The lord of the mansion has always been dissatisfied with the fact that Master Qian has money in his hands and drinks five or six to him as a court official, and this time he seized the opportunity and did not trample him under his feet.
Tell Master Qian, even if you have money, you can't ignore the official.
Since the army took away the medicinal herbs, the people in the city heard about Nalan Jin's prestige and the army's support, and they all took refuge and wanted to establish a relationship with her.
Before purchasing medicinal materials, those pharmacies that claimed that they did not have medicinal materials in their stores also took the initiative to come to the door to contribute those medicinal materials to Nalan Jin.
"It's ...... What do you mean? Nalan Jin looked at the ground outside the front hall filled with large and small boxes, as well as the owners of various pharmacies.
"Before, we had no eyes, and if there was anything inappropriate, please Haihan."
"Yes, we are all businessmen, and I think Miss Nalan can understand our intentions."
"Hoarding and seizing business opportunities are the usual tricks of every businessman
Two. ”
The bosses explained for a long time, and Nalan Jin probably heard a little bit of the doorway, just because he was sorry for not lending a helping hand when he purchased medicinal materials before.
"Then what do you mean by bringing the medicine to the workshop now?" Nalan Jiajin pointed to the boxes piled up in front of him, occupying all the places to walk well.
"Miss Nalan has a good means, she can get on the line with Absolute, improve regardless of previous suspicions, and reward us with a bite to eat."
"I don't mean anything else, I just want to cooperate with the workshop, and it's better than wasting these medicinal materials in our hands."
"That's right, there are multiple roads, and it's much more convenient when purchasing medicinal herbs."
Everyone's opinions made Nalan Jin very moved, she didn't think that all the medicinal herb shops in the city would be gathered together to supply her in a unified manner.
But it's a bit tricky to do this, not to mention whether you will agree to it, just in terms of management, there is a big difference.
These people who are difficult are driven by profit.
Nalan Jin will plan and buy back these people's medicinal materials at twice the price. At the same time, the medicinal materials needed on the military list were sown into their hands and let them prepare in advance.
In just half a month, Master Qian only "rested" for half a month, and most of the pharmacies in the city were managed by Lan Jin.
When Mr. Qian came out of prison, the pharmacies that had cooperated with him before asked to terminate the contract and took the initiative to make compensation.
"Master, I won't see it all, and these things that are eaten inside and outside will cling to others." Old Man Qian was angry with the compensation silver sent by Lao Tie.
"Master, I finally came out, put out the fire first, and stay in the green mountains, I'm not afraid that there will be no firewood, she is a yellow-haired girl. All you have to do is hook your little finger and you can step on it. The housekeeper comforted and handed tea to Master Qian.
"She is not worthy of competing with the master, but these bosses who only see the benefits are even more hateful, the lord and I just had an accident, and they are hiding far away one by one." Master Qian angrily threw all the silver on the table to the ground.
Mrs. Qian came over and saw the silver all over the ground complaining that Master Qian was impulsive, and all the good money was thrown on the ground. Then he picked it up again and wiped it clean with a handkerchief.
"You layman, what else do you have in your eyes but money?" Master Qian glared in disgust.
"You're not tacky, then don't leave the money!" Mrs. Qian's eyes flashed with gold, and she stared at the white silver in her hand and retorted.
Old Man Qian was angry and turned his head to leave.
Since then, the cooperation between Master Qian and Nalan Jin has also been cracked. Going against Nalan Jin became the only thought he had for the rest of his life.
Nalan Jin opened the free clinic, and Master Qian specially found some people who were not sick to go to the door of the free clinic and moaned loudly, and also made trouble with other people queuing up to see a doctor.
After a while, there was not even a figure at the entrance of the free clinic.
Su Yan was at ease. The two jugs of wine in his waist made him drink all the wine.
Su Yan
, why did you secretly hide to the side and drink, and the patients at the door have all finished reading? Nalan accused, Su Yan.
"I'm not a veterinarian, I only treat people, not animals." Su Yan turned his head and said a vernacular.
Nalan Jin was puzzled and went out to take a look. Except for a few sparrows that landed on the table, there were wild dogs that ran out of other people's houses, and there was not even a shadow of a ghost.
"What's going on? What about the people who do the free clinic? I remember that there were still a lot of people in the free clinic a few days ago. Nalan Jin looked at Su Yan who was drinking in confusion.
"I'm just a doctor, how do I know if there's anybody? Maybe they've been saved by my art, and there are no sick people in the city who need to be healed. It's time for me to pack up and go. ”
Su Yan took a sip of wine, smiled with satisfaction, and turned his head to Nalan Jin.
Nalan Jin looked at the pedestrians walking outside, and it seemed that there were a few people in the opposite corner who had been staring at the door of the workshop.
"Dongfang, come over and take a look, do you feel that the eyes of those people on the other side are wrong?" Nalan Jin waved his hand to let Dongfang Yi, who was settling accounts, pass.
Dongfang Yi raised his head and glanced at it, and put down the ledger in his hand. After walking to the door and looking around for a long time, there seemed to be nothing unusual except for passing pedestrians.
"It's all strange faces, if you have to say that he is strange and strange, if you want to say that he is not strange, he is not strange." Dongfang Yi twisted his eyebrows and couldn't see anything unusual.
"I'll tell you seriously, take a good look at the two people in black in the opposite corner, are they staring at us all the time?" Nalan Jin specifically pointed out those two people.
Before he noticed it just now, when Nalan Jin said this, Dongfang Yi stared at the man carefully. They immediately pretended to turn their gaze to the nearby embroidery stall.
"It's strange that you say that as if the two of them were indeed. But what does this have to do with free clinics? Dongfang Yi still didn't understand what Nalan Jin meant.
Nalan Jin let out a long sigh, unable to explain. But the suspicion made her anxious again.
"Have you noticed that a series of things have been a little abnormal recently, no matter what we do, there are people who can think ahead of us, and even before we act, there are already people who have taken the lead." Nalan Jin was puzzled.
"No, right? Have you been worrying a little too much lately? Dongfang Yi devoted himself to sorting out the income of the past few days.
In the end, it is a man, and there is always a time when it is rough.
"Do you remember the last time we finished buying atractylodes, the herb shop that we were optimistic about was gone immediately, and the forsythia the day before yesterday was gone...... It's as if someone is following us, always ahead of us. ”
Nalan Jin listed the recent events one by one, Dongfang Yi thought about it back and forth, it seemed to make some sense, but it was too reluctant to say it.
"This ...... Could it be a coincidence? Dongfang Yi still has a glimmer of hope for luck.
"No, once it's a coincidence
Twice, three times, that was too much of a coincidence. I suspect that there is an inner ghost around us, and it is in the house! Nalan Jin walked around and analyzed for a long time, and came to a conclusion with certainty.
"This ......," Dongfang Yi shifted his gaze to the people in the workshop.
They all shook their heads and waved their hands in fear, proving that they didn't do it themselves.
"Don't look at me like that, there's no way I'm going to betray Miss." Lian'er retorted affirmatively.
"I don't think it's possible." Dongfang Yi re-examined, "Jin'er, are you too suspicious?" ”
Dongfang Yi still thinks that it is better to have more trust between people, after all, in the wind and rain together, he has experienced ups and downs so many times.
"Whether it's or not, we'll find out right away." Nalan Jin raised her eyebrows suspiciously, looking at the two people outside who were still watching them.
In the past few days, Pei's has relied on what Nalan Zhen said at every turn, and whenever he is free, he will go to Li's courtyard to hug Nalan Bo to play, and Li's stop was rejected by Pei's grandiose.
"This is what the old man meant, if you have any dissatisfaction, just talk to the old man, anyway, I also want the little master's mother, you will always be a concubine, this bit of face still has to have." Pei sneered.
