Chapter 8 Martial Arts Pharmacy
Gu Dan was divided into the benefits again, five hundred taels of silver tickets.
I heard that Emperor Zongming was overjoyed after seeing Pang Qi's colorful Tai Sui, which secretly fits the way of immortality, and the meaning is excellent.
Not to mention the five colors, there is no one in the world, which is very much in line with his wishes.
It's just slightly inferior to the white deer offered by Fang Shi, and he didn't get the jackpot.
Still, it's a reward!
Tai Hospital, which has been shrouded by the shadow of Fang Shi for ten years, has recently seemed to have a second spring.
Even the imperial physician is no longer as leisurely as it is, and occasionally there are summons from dignitaries.
It's just that Gu Dan doesn't have the energy to pay attention to these for the time being, because Moqiu is finally back!
"Brother Mo, I haven't seen you for a long time, who are you?"
Seeing Moqiu again, Gu Dan was quite surprised.
Moqiu is still so strong, he looks like a giant up close, but there are more worries between his eyebrows, dusty clothes, and his face is quite solemn.
"It's a long story."
Moqiu sighed, "What I saw this time to suppress the bandits, I feel uneasy!" ”
"Let's go, let's pick up the wind and wash the dust for you first, and talk slowly."
Gu Dan chose a restaurant with high-quality dishes and asked for a private room.
"The land of the bandits is still a hundred miles away from the imperial capital, and the mountains are surrounded by mountains, and the road is treacherous. The evil bandits were entrenched in the mountains and forests, and the government raised troops to capture them and scattered them as birds and beasts, with little effect. So I didn't rush to take the bounty. ”
Mo Qiu picked up the wine jug, took a big sip, and then said: "But soon I found out that the bandits in the land of bandits far exceeded the expectations of the government, and they have become the climate!" ”
"Oh?"
Gu Dan was also a little surprised, "Dare to become a climate a hundred miles away from the imperial capital?" ”
If three or two kittens are not too much, the government is too lazy to take care of it.
Dare to gather in the mountains and forests, do you really think that the iron fist can't hit you?
The darkness under the lamp doesn't tell you to order a lantern!
"I came to the imperial capital because of the floods in Yuzhou. Tens of thousands of people have been displaced and hundreds of thousands have been left homeless. But this time, the number of bandits in the mountains and forests has increased significantly, but not only because of natural disasters, but because of man-made disasters! ”
The wine jug slammed back on the table, and Mo Qiu said coldly: "Yuzhou has just experienced natural disasters, but during this time, taxes have to be increased!" And it's not an extra year, but a total of at least five years! ”
"Hiss~"
Gu Dan couldn't help but gasp, "How dare he?!" ”
Taxation is related to the livelihood of the people, and it can be said that human life is at stake.
Before the natural disaster has passed, there will be an additional five years of taxes, I'm afraid it's not crazy!
"Heh, Yuzhou is already a major grain producing area. Although the natural disaster is tragic, it can still be survived. But as soon as the tax comes this time, I don't know how many people want their families to be ruined and have no livelihood!
According to the bandits, there are already people from the White Lotus Sect who have taken the opportunity to stir up trouble and incite the people. There are also people who know that they have no way out, so it is better to join the bandits, so that the number of bandits will increase greatly. ”
At this point, Moqiu was already full of murderous intent.
Even if Gu Dan knew that this killing intent was not aimed at him, he couldn't help but feel cold all over his body.
Suddenly, he thought of what Xu Zhian said to him.
'The current emperor has been cultivating for ten years. Ten years of asking, has been achieved, should be congratulated by both the government and the opposition......
Ha, what a congratulatory to both the government and the opposition!
It's really Haiyan River clear, and the world is peaceful!
Gu Dan's palms are already pinched white, even if he has relatives, what can he do?
He's just a mere ninth-grade healer, what's it?
The last imperial doctor who advised the Dog Emperor not to be obsessed with cultivation ordered to get out.
On the contrary, now this imperial doctor is constantly welcomed, and the rewards are soft.
The people in the court have long understood how to behave.
Emperor Zongming has not been in court for ten years, but he is not used to it, and he has long been away from the officialdom.
Dog Emperor, you can't die well!
The atmosphere at the banquet became dreary, and neither of them was in much interest.
After a while, Gu Dan cheered up and said, "Don't talk about state affairs." Brother Mo might as well talk about this trip to suppress bandits, how much did he gain? ”
Speaking of this, Mo Qiu's face finally improved a little, "Due to the large increase in the number of bandits, the reward this time has also increased a lot. Although it took several months, he also received a reward of three hundred taels of silver. ”
Three hundred taels is a very high number.
If ordinary people want to save so much, it is impossible for the whole family to be tired to death for the rest of their lives.
However, the suppression of bandits is already dangerous, and if one is not careful, he will lose his life, and if the government sends troops to encircle and suppress it, the amount of materials, money and food consumed will far exceed this amount.
"Three hundred taels ......"
Gu Dan's expression was inexplicable, he didn't do anything, but his income during this period was more than twice that of Moqiu's exhaustion.
In terms of ability, he is far inferior to Moqiu.
But his family has passed down three generations of imperial doctors, and now even if there is only one seedling left, there are still people to take care of it, and every day is very leisurely.
In addition, there are some intangible conveniences, such as the medicinal materials he needs for the diagnosis and treatment of prisoners in prison, all of which are from the Tai Hospital, and there is no need for money.
This is not his prerogative, as is the case with every imperial physician who holds an official position.
Only certain precious medicinal materials need to be recorded when they are used.
To put it mildly, even if he is completely rotten, as long as he does not touch gambling and drugs, with the remaining property and prescriptions at home, not to mention brocade clothes and jade food for a lifetime, the life of a chic ordinary person is also a simple thing.
It wasn't until this time that Gu Dan suddenly realized that the second generation was actually me!
"Three hundred taels sounds like a lot, but it really costs money, and it seems that the flowing water is going east, and it will disappear in the blink of an eye." Mo Qiu looked a little helpless, "I don't want to go to those princes and nobles, it's really ......"
"The bandit didn't leave any gold or silver behind?" Gu Dan asked curiously.
"That's not true."
Mo Qiu immediately shook his head and said heavily: "The money and wealth obtained by the bandits are all murder and goods, forcible seizure of business travelers, and persecution of the people's property. A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. What is the difference between such possessions and the robber when he has them for his own expenses? I have used all the money I have received from the bandits for the relief of the victims, and I have nothing left. ”
"Brother Mo is righteous! Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years! ”
Gu was worried, and immediately said: "Brother Mo's strength is far beyond the reach of others, but the matter of suppressing bandits is extremely dangerous after all. This matter cannot be repeated again and again, and the other party must be prepared to suppress bandits one after another, and one carelessness is a danger of life and death, which is really not a good way. In contrast, Brother Mo has both skills, but is he interested in opening a martial arts gym? ”
"Martial arts?"
Mo Qiu thought for a moment and shook his head again, "Life in the martial arts hall is not easy now. Just talking about the purchase of space, every inch of land in the imperial capital is expensive, and there is nothing left to buy a suitable courtyard for three hundred taels of silver. In the middle, I want to make a name for myself, and then recruit students, and I don't know how many years it will take. ”
The martial arts hall is not something you can open if you have the ability.
I have to be recognized!
There is no one on it, who can stand it if they go to your house twice in three days to make trouble?
Not to mention that Fang Shi is highly respected now, and there are many more people who are willing to go to Fang Shi Taoist Temple than those who are willing to go to the martial arts hall.
One is up to the heavens, and the other is a caretaker, and there is no need to think about the trade-offs.
Gu Dan clapped his hands and said: "Ha, it just so happens that my father left a house in Beijing that is not bad, and I have never been there on weekdays, so I am idle there." If Brother Mo is interested, wouldn't it be beautiful for the two of us to open a martial arts gym and a pharmacy together? ”
Mo Qiu shook his head again and again and said, "That is the mansion left by Ling Zun, how can it be demolished and made into a martial arts hall?" It's not reasonable! ”
"Definitely! When my father was still alive, he once told him that if he didn't have much ability, he would not wait in the hospital, and he could open a pharmacy to make a living. It's just that I ask myself, and I don't dare to make mistakes. It was only after listening to Brother Mo mention the difficulties that he had such thoughts. You and I live as neighbors, and we can take care of each other.
What's more, medicine and martial arts are not separated, and if they promote each other, maybe the business can be more prosperous. Even if there is no one, it doesn't cost much money, and the place will never run! ”
Mo Qiu just said it, but Gu Dan had already thought about it.
The hospital is very good, but it's not his home.
Not to mention that the current Taiyi Ling has been making trouble without stopping.
I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet?
Wucai Tai Sui taught Gu Dan a lesson, his caution was far from enough, and he also made up his mind for him.
It's time to move out of the hospital!
"This ......"
Murphy hesitated.
Opening a martial arts hall, he didn't think about it.
It's just that the cost of capital and time to pay is too high, and whether there is an apprentice or not, you have to find a pharmacist to support you - it's normal to have injuries in martial arts, and it's impossible to have a pharmacist in charge, which is a big expense.
"Brother Mo teaches people with martial arts, and I go out of the territory and diagnose and treat people. In the meantime, the revenue can be divided into five or a half, what does Brother Mo think? Gu Dan struck while the iron was hot, "It's not a secret, I also want to learn some martial arts, but the martial arts hall outside is really not at ease." If Brother Mo is willing to teach, it would be great. ”
Moqiu looked at Gu Dan, who did not shy away from meeting his gaze, with only anticipation and excitement in his eyes.
For this day, he has been waiting for more than four months!
Although a large part of the reason is to avoid the attention of people who care about him, it is also real to wait.
"Brother Gu's kindness ......"
Moqiu pondered, and couldn't help but feel a little emotion in his heart.
Fifty-five accounts, to put it mildly.
He only needs to sit and teach, and the rest of the things will be handled by the other party.
It's not as simple as a simple sentence to get out of the territory and treat people.
Not to mention anything else, if you want to open a martial arts hall in the imperial capital, you have to get the credentials in the government first, run through the joints, and ensure that you don't cheat people to pay money and turn around and run away.
This step alone has stopped many people.
Of course, he also knew that Gu Dan was on duty in Tai Hospital, three generations of imperial doctors in his family, and even he was a Jiupin doctor, so there must be a relationship.
"Brother Mo, even if you don't agree, I will definitely open a pharmacy. How much more can I spend if I open the martial arts hall easily? Not to mention anything else, even if the loss is overwhelming, the Tai Hospital will have to take care of us at any time. ”
Seeing Moqiu's intentions, Gu Dan couldn't wait to say.
"If that's the case, then it's troublesome Brother Gu!"
Moqiu nodded, the conditions offered by the other party could not be better, and even the preferential treatment was not enough to describe.
Even if you can't do anything, it's just a waste of time, and you should practice martial arts.
"Haha, come, drink!"
Gu is worried about Zhongdachang.
It is inevitable to open a medicine shop, and the martial arts hall is purely for Moqiu.
Although he has not known Moqiu for a long time, whether it is what he saw in prison or talked to at this time, it is not difficult to see that he has his own bottom line, and his bottom line is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
He was relieved to practice martial arts with this person.
Get along day and night, and someone will give you advice, and you can't ask for it.
After being full of wine and food, Gu Dan was not ambiguous at all, and directly pulled Moqiu to the old mansion left by his cheap father.
According to the rules of the previous life, if the palace is divided into one ring, the house left by my father is a little far away from the second ring road, and there are more than a dozen rooms, which occupies a good area.
It is more than enough to open a martial arts hall, and it is also very simple to set aside one to make a pharmacy for him.
Do you understand the gold content of the three generations of imperial doctors in the family!
Hand over a key to Moqiu, and take care of the non-stop, immediately going to get down to business.
Holding the key to the Gu family's old mansion, Mo Qiu was still a little unresponsive.
"Brother Gu, this person is really ......"
After thinking about it, he didn't think of the right words even if he was well-informed.
He and Gu Dan have only known each other for more than three months, and they haven't seen each other for two months.
But the other party was able to entrust him so much that he directly handed over the keys to the old mansion!
What kind of trust is this?
......
On the other side, Gu Dan had already run back to the Tai Hospital and put on his Jiupin official uniform.
Although the nine grades in the imperial capital are really nothing, it also depends on who they compare with.
He didn't want to compete for the Oiran, the nine grades were enough.
As for whether Moqiu will run away with the key and rummaging through the cabinet with the money?
Gu Dan didn't have this worry at all.
Let's not say that the other party has no problem with both his actions and style, even if he really looks away?
It's just a little bit of money, plus a thorough look at a person.
Ordinary people have a number in their lives, and it is inevitable that they need to be careful, and even risk their lives to fight for temporary gains and losses.
As long as he heals and saves people in peace, immortality is by no means vain.
Directly handing over the key to Moqiu and running away, it is not so much that he is big and ignorant of the sinister heart, but rather a test for Moqiu.
No matter how nice it sounds, it may not be true.
Before leaving, he also specially informed the family that there was some money left over for Moqiu to use by himself.
If the other party really wants to take it, then take it.
Even if a fire burned down the old house, he didn't care.
The background of three generations of imperial doctors has given him enough capital for trial and error.
And if the other party does not run away, it proves that his trust is worth it.
From now on, you can also practice martial arts with Moqiu with peace of mind, and there will be no harm in doing a hundred benefits!
......
Time flies, and seven days have passed.
Moqiu sat in the lobby, listening to the clanging sounds around him, and couldn't help but be a little stunned.
After a while, he muttered to himself, "Brother Gu...... What a strange person! ”
In the past seven days, Gu Dan has never come back at all.
On the third day, a group of people came in with a meal guy, and Murchu thought it was a thief and almost caught him on the spot.
As a result, when I asked, it was a little brother who asked them to come and demolish the house, saying that they were going to build a martial arts hall.
There are people in the family, and when you ask, you will know that it is all up to him.
Moqiu's mood at that time is really difficult to describe in words.
Now the courtyard is in full swing, but the real owner of the yard is not there at all.
The people who work have questions and come to ask Murqiu, what can Murqiu do?
The hospital also went to ask once, but I didn't even see Gu Dan's figure.
You can only do it on your own.
He knows countless people and knows a lot of things, but it is really the first time he has seen Gu Dan like this.
If it weren't for the fact that they didn't look alike, he would have suspected that Gu Dan was his long-lost brother.
"Haha, Brother Mo. What are the busy days? It's all done. ”
Mo Qiu was still thinking about it, and Gu Dan was already stepping into the door, greeting him with a smile.
