Chapter 40: Blackmail
"I'm the root of Mai Dong, that is, the rhizome of Mai Dong that is not used in medicine...."Gu Banniang said slowly.
Dr. Zhu was stunned for a moment, and he looked down again at the so-called wheat winter root in his hand, "Fibrous root?" ”
"Yes, the root of Mai Dong is thicker, and the top or middle of the root is swollen into a spindle-shaped fleshy small piece," Gu Banniang said, while gesturing, "And this is the other fibrous roots that are useless to go down, now there is Mai Dong on the side of the road, Mr. can find someone to pull it down and take a look, after soaking and cleaning, it becomes like this, although it does not look like it, but it is still Mai Dong after all..."
As he spoke, he looked at the young man and said with a smile, "So you can't call it Yuanzhi just because it can't be used in wheat winter medicine..."
This made the outsiders laugh.
The young man was a little flustered at this moment, "You, you, this is nonsense, you just bought it back for Yuanzhi..."
"This big brother," Gu Bainiang smiled, looked at the young man, and said a little helplessly, "Why am I doing this?" It's not like I can't buy a vision... Besides...," she looked solemn, "How could I do that?" ”
The eyes of the people in the hall instantly fell on the young man, and the woman, who had been crying in a low voice, couldn't care about crying at this time, and looked at everyone blankly.
"Because. . Because.. Because this one is cheap! The young man panicked and shouted indiscriminately.
As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion, and Gu Bainiang couldn't help but shake her head, why did Shopkeeper Zhou send such a fool over?
At this time, a person in the crowd saw this and squeezed out, ran along the street, and only after passing a street, he saw three people rushing across the opposite side, and coincidentally collided with him.
"Blind you...," the man jumped up from the ground and cursed.
Before he finished speaking, he was picked up, "Who are you scolding!" You broke Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu hasn't settled the account for you...."
When the people on the street saw it, they avoided it one after another, and some good things came around, watching this excitement that was destined not to end soon.
In Peng's medicine shop, the cold-faced official looked at the young man, and he already understood in his heart that he was clearly a gangster who came to blackmail.
He waved his hand, and four or five officials surrounded the three of them.
"But, little lady Gu, what do you want this Mai Dong Whisker Root to do?" Dr. Zhu asked suddenly, looking at her meaningfully, "I have to say, this is really similar to what Yuanzhi did.....
"I don't think it's a pity to abandon the root of the wheat root, I want to see if it can also be used in medicine..... Gu Banniang said.
Dr. Zhu smiled and said, "The little lady is laughing." ”
Since Mai Dong was recorded as a medicinal material, all the roots and whiskers have been discarded, this little lady is really whimsical......
"Maybe one day it can be used in medicine, such as grinding into powder..."Gu Banniang said seriously.
Dr. Zhu smiled and shook his head, apparently taking this as a joke and discarding it as no longer theorizing.
"Little lady, this wheat winter fibrous root is fibrous root, and it must not be equated with wheat winter." He said meaningfully, while glancing at Peng Yipin.
What he means is that you should not sell the root of the wheat as the wheat winter.
However, his worry was purely superfluous, Gu Bainiang smiled, shook the Mai Dong whisker root in his hand, and pointed to the Mai Dong in Dr. Zhu's hand, "Although they are born to the same mother, they are really too different in appearance..."
This means that she wants to pretend, but the world is not blind.
Dr. Zhu couldn't help but smile when he saw the little girl say witty words, looked at her a few more times, and turned around to say a few words to the cold-faced official.
An official once again took a packet of medicine that had been spread out on the counter and showed it to Dr. Zhu, who looked at it and nodded.
"It's Yuanzhi, it's not this Maidong Whisker Root," he said.
The young man's legs were trembling at this time, a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead, he cried and mourned, and said in a loud voice: "Uncle Cha....I don't understand this either... Xu was mistaken...."
At this time, the official had a bottom in his heart, he snorted coldly, waved his hand, and the two officials stepped forward to pick up the young man.
"Come with us, if you have anything to say, say it in the yamen."
The young man cried for his father and cried for his mother, and the woman on the ground stopped crying for her mother, but turned around and beat the young man and scolded him with a thousand knives.
"So, it's a nuisance." The official said to Peng Yizhen.
Peng Yizhen hurriedly replied and said that he didn't dare, and personally sent the official and his party out.
"However, these old men have to be taken away and some appraisals will be done," Dr. Zhu said.
It seems that he is still very curious that the root of the wheat winter can be made like this.
"Feel free, sir." Peng said hurriedly, and immediately instructed the young man to hurry up and load it for Dr. Zhu.
Dr. Zhu nodded and followed the official out.
"Blind, blackmailed me Peng Yipin!" Peng Yizhen stood at the door and said loudly.
The onlookers pointed to the young man who had been taken away by the official messenger, and then saw that the woman sitting in the pharmacy also ran away with her head down.
"Hey, your mother is still lying.." Someone snorted and laughed at the good thing.
Before the words fell, I saw the old woman lying on the door panel get up, get out of the crowd and run, laughing on all sides, and even Peng Yizhen laughed angrily.
"Disperse, disperse." He waved his hand.
The onlookers dispersed in a hurry, this blackmail of the medical hall pharmacy is not uncommon, but this time the blackmailer is too arrogant, and he dares to find an official, this is not a self-defeating way.
"I don't know how the government will come to a conclusion?" Peng Yizhen looked excited, "Can you find out .....?"
Halfway through his words, he saw Gu Baniang glaring at him, and then he remembered that the Cao family was also standing in the hall and was busy talking.
Gu Bainiang shook her head at him, the final conclusion of this matter can only be blackmail, and Shopkeeper Zhou definitely did not come forward to leave himself clean in this matter.
But it doesn't matter.
"The blackmailers don't blackmail the doctor now, they actually know the medicinal herbs as a doorway, Mr. Peng, you who do the pharmacy should be careful..."Gu Banniang reminded with a smile.
Peng Yizhen nodded at her, made a look that everything was arranged, and said, "Thank you little lady for reminding me." ”
"Although it is said that this time it is someone who blackmails you, but in this world, there are naturally fake medicines, Shopkeeper Peng, you have to be more careful when buying medicines or anything in the future." Gu Banniang said with a smile.
Peng Yizhen knew that she had something to say, so he listened carefully, and said along the way: "No, there are always some people who want to make money with their conscience now....."
Gu Bainiang nodded, "However, what is fake is fake after all, and people who know how can easily see it, or taste it, or soak it in water..."
Speaking of the last sentence, she looked at Peng Yizhen and accentuated her tone.
Soak in water... Peng Yizhen muttered in his heart for a moment, his face suddenly smiled, he couldn't hide his laughter, nodded again and again, and said yes in his mouth.
Gu Banniang saw that he understood, and she didn't say anything more, so she was about to leave.
Peng Yizhen made amends to the Cao family again, sorry for making them frightened, and took out the money as he spoke.
Cao resolutely refused to accept it, "The medicine we sell, naturally we have to testify if something happens." ”
Seeing that she insisted, Peng Yizhen didn't force it anymore, thanked him again, and asked the young man to prepare a car to send them, Cao Shi thanked him, and pulled Gu Bainiang's footsteps and walked away easily.
"I didn't expect that selling medicinal herbs is also risky.." Cao said with a smile, stroking his daughter's head, "Eighteen Niang, are you afraid?" ”
Gu Banniang smiled, "Mother, I didn't do anything wrong, what are you afraid of?" ”
It should be those who are afraid of those who have done something wrong, and she smiled widely.
When Shopkeeper Zhou got the news, it was already evening, and his face was shocked, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.
"That's not right! Wrong! He reacted.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Zhou Liniang asked hurriedly.
"Fooled! Fooled! Shopkeeper Zhou muttered, his mind was chaotic, and the scene of the day of the medicine meeting echoed in front of him in turn.
"Tricked by them!" Shopkeeper Zhou sat on the chair with a puff, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his body.
"Daddy." Zhou Liniang was shocked and hurriedly helped him arm, "What's wrong with you?" Tricked by whom? ”
Shopkeeper Zhou didn't care about her words, and stood up from the chair suddenly, "Quick, quick, call someone, go, go and throw away all the Qin skins I bought that day...."
"Dad, what are you talking about," Zhou Liniang said in surprise, "What Qin Pi you bought that day?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the door and the sound of banging on the door.
