Chapter 3: Threatening my brother
Β·
After Mama Qin learned that Si Xuan ran to find Wen Yunjin, she was very angry, thinking that the little county lord was going to be confused by that person and couldn't turn over, but fortunately, after the little county lord came back this time, she was a lot more sober and focused on expanding her wealth.
In the past two days, Si Xuan has visited several of her existing pharmacies and ordered someone to revise some systems.
Although Si Xuan said that he had never taken care of these, after all, he had the predecessor of the imperial merchant family, and he had been exposed to his father and mother since he was a child, so he still knew some ways of doing business.
On this day, when Si Xuan was checking the account books upstairs in a branch medicine village, he heard the two maids waiting on the side bow their heads and say something, Si Xuan looked up at them from the table and asked, "What's wrong?" β
One of the maidservants replied, "County Lord, Dean Wen of the Hanlin Academy has brought someone to the medicine house, it seems that he is here to see a doctor." β
Si Xuan's fingers on the side of the ledger tightened slightly, paused for a while, closed the ledger and got up, and pushed the door out.
Si Xuan stood on the edge of the gan on the second floor of the medicine village, looked down from the second floor with his eyes down, and clearly saw that opposite the consultation table under the hollow red sandalwood screen, there was a woman, and the person standing next to the woman was Wen Yunjin.
The woman had a graceful temperament, but her complexion was a little pale.
And Wen Yunjin, who was standing beside her, looked a little dignified, as if he was discussing something with Dr. Xu, who was seeing a doctor.
Si Xuan slowly squinted his eyes, and the knuckles of his fingers hanging down his side gradually turned white, faintly showing faint green tendons.
About a quarter of an hour later, Si Xuan watched Wen Yunjin help the weak and beautiful woman leave from the medicine house, and Si Xuan returned to the attic room and asked Dr. Xu to go upstairs.
Soon Si Xuan learned from Dr. Xu that Wen Yunjin did take the woman to see the doctor, and the woman was not lightly ill, Si Xuan was not interested in her condition, so she didn't listen very carefully, what made her interested was that the woman's illness urgently needed a rare medicinal herb Lang Er into medicine-
And the rarity of this flavor can be said to be hard to find, and it doesn't matter if you really can't buy it on the market.
While listening to Dr. Xu's explanation, Si Xuan flipped through the summary of Miss Jiang's illness in his hand and asked, "What did Wen Yunjin say?" β
"What Dean Wen means is that no matter how much money you have, you are willing to buy this life-saving medicine." Doctor Xu paused, seeing that Si Xuan was so concerned about this matter, and thought that Si Xuan wanted to help the dean, so he added, "County Lord, although Lang'er's medicine is hard to find, after all, we are a medicine village affiliated to the capital city, and the doorway is clearer than the layman. β
Si Xuan's hand paused, and he raised his eyes to look at Dr. Xu, but the focus of the conversation was, "He told you that himself?" β
Dr. Xu didn't quite understand what Si Xuan meant, so he nodded hesitantly and said "yes".
Si Xuan leaned on the back of the couch, folded the paper in his hand very carefully, folded it flat and neatly and put it on the edge of the table, and slowly ordered: "Use all the channels to buy medicine, and buy back all the Langer that Chonghua can buy at all costs." β
"This ......" Dr. Xu was really frightened by the arrogant behavior of the little county lord of Changyang, he knew that the queen mother left a lot of assets to the little county lord, but he didn't expect her to be such a loser as soon as she came up, and she couldn't even persuade her-
"County Lord, Lang'er's medicine is expensive and impractical, I'm afraid that I won't have the opportunity to use it if I buy it for ten years, do you really want to buy it all?"
Si Xuan stared at the blue veins on his wrists, his fingertips rubbing along the thin skin texture, and said, "Well, all." β
Si Xuan has given the order, and Director Li of the medicine village can only do it head-on.
According to Si Xuan's explanation, Yaozhuang spent a lot of money this time, and used some unsightly tough methods, and within ten days, it almost monopolized all the Langer that could be bought in the entire Chonghua.
Β·
On this day, after Wen Yunjin finished handling affairs in the Hanlin Academy, he was reminded by his subordinate Zhao Changlin that he remembered that it was the day of Jiang Huaiyue's follow-up today.
"Is there any news from the drugstore?" Wen Yunjin tidied up the ink inkstone on the table a little, and asked directly.
"The subordinates originally asked several medicine houses in the capital, and they all said that there was no 'Lang Er' flavor medicine, and then the subordinates threw a lot of money to ask for medicine, and only then did they find out a little rumor from a medicine shopββ"
Zhao Changlin whispered with a solemn face: "Some people say that Baiqiang Medicine Village recently bought the entire Langer of Chonghua and will not sell it to the public. The subordinates thought it was strange, so they went to investigate, and found out that the boss behind the White Rose Medicine Shop was...... The little county lord of Changyang. β
Speaking of which, although Si Xuan was not stripped of the title of the small county lord of Changyang because of the amnesty of the Queen Mother, the Si family committed treason after all, and few people dared to mention these words in the past two years.
When Wen Yunjin heard this, his fingers accidentally got ink, and his finger bones were scribbled together and rubbed, and he picked up a square handkerchief on the edge of the table, and while slowly wiping the soiled fingertips, he said indifferently: "Then you go and ask Baiqiang Medicine Shop how to sell it." β
Zhao Changlin went to Baiqiang Medicine Village again according to the instructions of the dean, and this time, he clearly received the reply given by Director Li himself: "Please Dean Wen bring sincerity here in person tomorrow, whether you can talk about it depends on Dean Wen's own ability." β
Zhao Changlin took the address given by Director Li, returned to the Wen Mansion with a complicated mood, and repeated the last words of Director Li to their dean.
Anyone can see at a glance that the little county lord of Changyang suddenly made such a move, and it was clear that he wanted to take revenge on the dean.
Therefore, while Wen Yunjin took the letter and read the address on it, Zhao Changlin frowned, and couldn't help but remind in a low voice, "My lord, the little county lord, she is only afraid that she has a grudge against you because of the incident two years ago, if you really go, you may be ...... by the Changyang county lord."
Before the words fell, Wen Yunjin interrupted his subordinates' words in a gentle tone, explained several things to bring, and said, "You go and prepare." β
Zhao Changlin had no choice but to say yes.
The next day, Wen Yunjin came to Si Xuan's house in person with a carefully prepared gift.
The person who came to pick him up into the house was Mama Qin, and Mama Qin saw Wen Yunjin who came to visit, and her face was naturally good and she couldn't see where to go.
Although the little county lord informed her in advance that Wen Yunjin came to ask for medicine this time, Mama Qin felt a chill in her heart when she thought of what this Lord Wen had done in the past, but she had to endure her anger and take him into the house.
As soon as she entered the mansion, Mama Qin noticed that Wen Yunjin was carrying a very beautiful box in her hand, Mama Qin looked at it a few times, and finally couldn't help asking: "Lord Dean, what is the ...... here?"
"A set of pen inkstones."
Mama Qin didn't let up there, and asked next: "Is it for the little county lord?" β
Wen Yunjin nodded.
"Can you show the old slave?"
Wen Yunjin raised her eyebrows, probably seeing what Mama Qin was thinking, she chuckled, and handed it to Mama Qin casually, looking like she didn't have any so-called Sven elegance.
Mama Qin was indeed afraid that Wen Yunjin would bring something dirty to Si Xuan again, so after taking it, she carefully checked it and determined that what Wen Yunjin brought was only a set of pen inkstones, so she was a little relieved and returned it to Wen Yunjin with confidence.
On the spacious and solemn water corridor pavilion, Wen Yunjin saw the little girl standing on the edge of the stone corridor.
Si Xuan tilted his head slightly, and his hand hung to the side without any force, looking a little depressed and very cold.
Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, Si Xuan turned his head over, his light gray eyes looked straight at Wen Yunjin who walked to the bottom of the porch, and blinked his eyelashes very slowly.
"Mama, you go down first."
Si Xuan came back to his senses, noticed Mama Qin who was following him, and spoke.
Mama Qin looked at Wen Yunjin vigilantly, and stopped talking a few times, but when Si Xuan said this, she had no choice but to retreat worriedly.
"For me?"
After Mama Qin left, Si Xuan looked at the delicate box that Wen Yunjin put on the table, opened his eyes in an arc that became larger, and asked him.
Wen Yunjin sat down, casually stretched the hem of his clothes and said, "Hmm." β
Si Xuan opened it in front of him, looked at it a few times in a lazy manner, the corners of his lips moved his face, first commented that the gift was "okay", and then said, "Thank you, brother." β
Wen Yunjin probably didn't want to chat with her at all this time, and after sitting down for a while, he went straight to the topic, but his tone was as warm as ever: "Although I don't have a deep understanding of pharmacology, but, Guanxuan, the medicine house shouldn't use so many Langer medicinal materials." β
Si Xuan nodded his chin obediently, agreeing with his statement.
"What does Guancheng probably want, you can talk about it." Wen Yunjin poured himself a cup of tea and asked patiently.
Looking at the past from Si Xuan's point of view, the begonia branches on the side passed diagonally along the eaves of the water corridor, blowing the flower branches in the wind, and occasionally sporadic flowers and leaves fell.
And Wen Yunjin, who was sitting opposite, had a handsome face, and every contour line seemed to be plated with natural soft light.
His fingers are also very good-looking, the knuckles of the fingers holding the cup are slender and distinct, and when he drinks water, his eyelashes are as black as a crow's feather downward, his thin lips are against the rim of the cup, and his Adam's apple is slowly moving.
He was still draped in a neat ice silk gown, with a collar meticulously bent over his neck, looking elegant and ascetic.
Si Xuan looked at it for a while, felt very sexy, and wanted to touch his Adam's apple.
Then she took out the contract she had already prepared, put it on the table, and said to Wen Yunjin-
"Sign this contract, and I'll help my brother save her."
Hearing this, Wen Yunjin picked up the paper and began to read it, his eyes were black, his eyes were flat, but he seemed to be gradually occupying something.
After a short pause, it seemed that he had seen something that made him noncommittal, Wen Yunjin let out a low chuckle in his throat, and glanced at her lightly, "What if I don't sign?" β
"Then brother, wait for Miss Jiang to die." Si Xuan used that very small face to say vicious words calmly.
Hearing this, Wen Yunjin shrugged his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Si Xuan with a smile instead of a smile, and his eyes vaguely revealed his appreciation for the changes of the little girl in the past two years.
Si Xuan was looked at by him like this, his fingertips tightened, his gaze quickly swept over the lapel he was holding against the protruding Adam's apple, lowered his head and was about to say something, Wen Yunjin had already spoken.
He read the contract again, sifted out a random passage, and repeated it in a low voice: "According to the third treaty above, every five days, I have to come and accompany Guancheng for one night, right? β
Si Xuan stared at the pale white fragrance perched on his fingertips and said, "Hmm." β
"The Hanlin Academy is busy, and I can't make sure that I will have time every time."
Si Xuan looked like he was listening to him very carefully, and when he finished speaking, he raised his head again, looked at him with a pair of cold and clear eyes, and made a concession as if he was compassionate: "Except for special circumstances." β
This time, Wen Yunjin didn't hesitate too much and said "yes", dipped his pen in ink, and calmly wrote down his name.
Si Xuan noticed that Wen Yunjin easily dismantled the set of pen inkstones he gave her to sign, and couldn't help but have a ridiculous coincidence.
But she didn't think much about it, just focused on supervising him to finish writing, and as soon as he put pen to paper, she took back the contract book and carefully checked it to make sure that he had made no mistakes, and then closed it and handed over the medicine box that had been prepared earlier.
Wen Yunjin took the medicine box from the little white hand, opened it and looked at it, and got up to leave.
Si Xuan immediately stood up and reminded him with the contract he had just signed, "The contract will take effect from today, brother, don't forget." β
Wen Yunjin, who had just walked out of the plank road for less than two steps, was quiet for a moment, and looked back at Si Xuan behind him.
Si Xuan was still standing in place, looking obedient and cold, but what he did was the opposite of it.
Wen Yunjin glanced at the contract she was holding in her hand, looked at her again, her lips hooked slightly, and she didn't care much to appease a sentence or two, "Aren't the contracts all in Xuan Xuan's hands?" Since I signed it, I will abide by the treaty. β
Si Xuan pressed the corners of her lips slightly, feeling weird, obviously she was blackmailing Wen Yunjin, but Wen Yunjin looked at her as if she was teasing a puppy, funny and boring.
