Chapter 30: The Counterfeit Drug Scandal
The door of Su's house has been very lively in the past few days, first some people beat gongs and drums to accuse Qin Chuan of evil deeds, and now some people are shouting and scolding Su Yanqing for selling fake medicines.
"Let's take a look! Such a person is still an imperial businessman! I really don't know how the business can be done in the palace! My husband was fine, drank the medicine they caught in the pharmacy, and has been in a coma until now! ”
The speaker was a middle-aged woman, dressed in coarse cloth with puddings, and her hair was only tied in a bun with a wooden hairpin, and it was obvious that the family was not wealthy.
In front of her lay a mattress, on which lay a scrawny man.
The man's lips were white and his cheeks were sunken, and he looked like a man who had been afflicted by a long illness, and he looked like he had few days to live.
In addition, several men also shouted loudly, roughly meaning how uncomfortable or ineffective they were after taking the medicine from Su's Pharmacy.
But Su Yunting's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that their clothes were made of satin, and they were all from a cloth workshop.
Su Yanqing was standing at the door with a sad face, he was alone, where did he say that there were so many people?
He opened his mouth several times in a row, but was shut up by those men.
Moreover, he has a more Sven personality, and there is really no way to face so many scoundrels.
Seeing that there were more and more people watching the excitement, Su Yanqing scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, the Su family's pharmacy was built by him after half a lifetime, and he didn't want the pharmacy to be cut off like this.
"You say, what about the current situation!" A few men shouted in a rough voice.
Su Yanqing didn't want to continue to consume with them.
He has been in business for so long, and he will always meet a few such scoundrels, these people are nothing more than asking for money, and the last thing he lacks is money.
Thinking of calming things down quickly, Su Yanqing said, "I'll give you money, right?" How much you want, you say! ”
The man at the head was overjoyed, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by Su Yunting.
"It's okay to give money, but you have to be clear. I don't know if you people have taken my medicine to cause you to be like this! ”
"What do you mean?" The man rolled up his sleeves and made a gesture, and Su Yunting was not afraid, but laughed.
"My Su family has always been honest in business, Tong Su is not bullied, today you come to the door, if we still blindly calm people, won't outsiders think that my Su family has indeed sold fake medicines?"
"It's a fact that you sell fake medicines! My man just took your medicine to get unconscious! The woman popped up and pointed at Su Yunting's nose to complain.
Su Yunting said with a smile: "You keep saying that your husband was fine before taking my medicine, but after taking it, he became like this, right?" ”
"That's right!"
"It's strange, since your husband is fine, why do you take medicine? Could it be that you deliberately poisoned it? Su Yunting pretended to be surprised.
In an instant, the spearhead of the melon-eating masses was directed at the woman.
The woman had never seen this meeting, and she was anxious on the spot, and blurted out: "You are talking nonsense! My man is suffering from tuberculosis, and he is dying! ”
After that, she also realized that she had said the wrong thing, and added: "He has been hanging on medicine all these years, and he has already seen well, but because of the change of your medicine, he is unconscious!" ”
This explanation also makes sense, and the people who eat melons began to point fingers at the Su family again.
"But you're so dignified, why do you want to change the medicine shop?"
Su Yanqing was very puzzled.
In general, when choosing a pharmacy, there are only two reference factors. One is the pharmacy that comes with the medical center, and the other is the pharmacy close to your home.
If it weren't for moving or going out of the house, I wouldn't have changed the pharmacy.
What's more, tuberculosis is dangerous and contagious, but this woman is full of anger when she speaks, and she is obviously not infected with the disease.
The man who took care of her for three years did not get sick, which means that the medicine is very good, and this situation will not be easy to change the medicine shop.
The woman tearfully complained: "It's not because you forced the pharmacy of the shopkeeper Hao on West Street to close the door, that I had to change the pharmacy!" ”
Su Yanqing pondered.
West Street? Shopkeeper Hao?
But those men didn't give Su Yanqing time to think at all, and shouted one after another: "Shopkeeper Hao, what a good person, and often help us see a doctor for free!" Just because he wanted to occupy the market on West Street, he forced others away! ”
"It's good to have money, you can do whatever you want!"
"Of course it's useless to have money alone! You still have to have the right! I heard that the backer behind the Su family is the king of Dingbei! ”
"Is it the king of Dingbei who the emperor is afraid of?"
"Who else could it be!"
"What about this...... Isn't it collusion between officials and businessmen? ”
"Not really! Officials and businessmen collude, bully the common people, and monopolize the medicinal materials market! In the future, the price of medicinal materials will be decided by their Su family! ”
"Oh, don't you dare to get sick then! Maybe you'll be bankrupt if you get a cold! ”
Su Yunting sneered.
Finally got to the point.
But how could the people who ate melons hear the inside story, they only heard that they might not be able to buy medicinal materials in the future and could not afford to get sick, so they protested one after another.
"Sue them!"
"But the government also has their people!"
"Then go and sue the royal court!"
"Sue the royal court! Sue the royal court! ”
Li Xiao, who was watching from the sidelines, was covered in a lot, these people were arguing with him, and if they bullied Su Yunting more, they should all be killed!
Just when Lixiao was really about to make a move, I saw Su Yunting use his internal strength and yelled: "Shut up for me!" ”
Because the sound was infused with internal force, it was extremely penetrating, and the crowd instantly quieted down.
But Su Yunting was a little too strong, and after shouting, his body fell back uncontrollably, but fortunately he was firmly supported by Lixiao taking a step forward, and did not let outsiders see the clues.
"My Su family pharmacy has been open in the capital for decades, and there are dozens of large and small stores, when has the price ever increased?"
"What's more, Shopkeeper Hao will send you medicine for free, I really laugh to death."
"I'm bothering you to figure it out and frame the Su family again, okay? Hao's shopkeeper's shop was originally my family's! ”
As soon as these words came out, the woman stayed where she was, unable to utter a word.
Someone in the crowd finally came to their senses.
"I'll just say what's weird, the one who gives us free medical treatment and medicine in March every year has always been Su's Pharmacy!"
"That's right, I didn't have a good cough before, but Mrs. Su helped cure it! They are by no means bad people! ”
"Are you mistaken?"
Those men saw that the coaxing had failed, and they turned around and wanted to run.
However, as soon as he ran a few steps, he was caught by someone sent by Su Yunting.
"You're done, it's my turn."
Su Yunting's aura was full of energy, and he approached the men and women step by step.
"Say! Who sent you? ”
