Chapter 167: Jingwen visits Puji Hall to find Cheng Shulan
That Cao Xun was most interested in selling medicine to Zhao Chuan.
This Cao Xun said that he had worked in a pharmacy in his early years and knew some alchemy medicinal materials.
A few months ago, the owner of a pharmacy changed careers and had to deal with packaging. Cao Xun saw that there were a few rare medicinal herbs, checked the classics, looked at the pictures, and thought it was a big bargain.
A few people scraped together two hundred medium-grade spirit stones and bought them.
How do you know that it is the seller's gimmick, those medicinal materials are not cared for at all, and some ordinary medicinal materials are processed at a low price for hundreds of spirit stones, and it is not as cost-effective to deal with them on the side of the road as to chop firewood for others.
Everyone laughed when they heard it.
Next, there was a back and forth around the matter of medicinal materials, and Cao Xun and several people wanted to take advantage of Zhao Chuan being a rookie and quickly sell it to him.
Zhao Chuan actually didn't know that these medicinal materials were He Danfang materials, so naturally they didn't pay a high price.
Cao Xun said: "Brother Zhao, you are an alchemist, these herbs must be useful in your hands." ”
Zhao Chuan pretended to be confused and said, "Brother Cao, I only know the name, do you have a formula?" What is the effect of refining He Dan? ”
Cao Xun said: "I want to know this, and I will get rich early." Alas, forget it, it's useless for me to keep it, these medicinal materials, even if they are five hundred medium-grade spirit stones, are all given to you! ”
Zhao Chuan waved his hand and smiled: "Brother Cao said it was funny, what do I want it for?" Make tea and drink? Still so expensive? ”
When several people heard this, they looked at each other, a little anxious, but no one said anything more.
The following words are just thoughts, how to say them?
Zhao Chuan obviously saw that a few people were not business materials, and smiled secretly in his heart, while drinking tea calmly.
After a few sips, Zhao Chuan beckoned Xiao Er to serve two more dishes.
Several looked at each other, and after a while, they all looked at Cao Xun again.
Cao Xun was also anxious, and he opened his mouth several times but didn't say anything.
What to say? They invited a few of themselves to dinner.
"Alas, it's not easy for you to scatter your cultivation, I want a hundred spirit stones, even if I make a friend." Seeing this, Zhao Chuan said with a smile.
Qiao Fu patted his leg and said, "Big brother, don't say anything about hundreds or hundreds, you bought it for two hundred, and everyone lost a little, one hundred and five!" Brother Zhao will give it to him if he wants, and forget about paying off the debt! ”
Cao Xun also had a headache, and several people asked him for dog meat accounts every day, and after hesitating, he agreed.
And so the deal was made.
Xiao Er ordered a new dish, and Zhao Chuan called for another pot of wine.
After a few drinks, Zhao Chuan said: "Since this is the case, you bought it for two hundred, then two hundred is good!" The medicinal materials are in the hands of our alchemists, and if they are useful, they will make a lot of money, right? ”
Cao Xun and the others were overjoyed when they heard this, and they paid attention to the entrusted matters.
After a few more meals, they dispersed.
Out of Xianlin Town, Zhao Chuan came to Taiyue City.
Zhao Chuan exchanged 1,000 medium-grade spirit stones for 180,000 taels of golden tickets.
People are mixed in the world, money is a good thing, Zhao Chuan thinks that money is good.
The day after Zhao Chuan went out for alchemy, Cheng Shulan went to Puji Hall as soon as possible for a consultation.
Mrs. Xu, a neighbor, came and said that she had a toothache on fire, and Cheng Shulan prescribed medicine and asked her, "Why did you get angry?" ”
Mrs. Xu snorted and said, "It's not because of my second child, it's awkward to live in this house divided into two, and the second child often causes trouble, so I really want to sell the house and move out." ”
Cheng Shulan asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Why didn't you sell it?" ”
Mrs. Xu said: "This house sells for 6,000 silver at most, and it costs 8,000 to buy a courtyard with one or three entrances, which is not enough money." ”
Cheng Shulan was secretly overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "My yard is small, and I want to expand it, or sell me for 8,000 silver." ”
Mrs. Xu was overjoyed when she heard this, and immediately said, "Is this true? ”
"If you want to sell, go through the formalities with Steward Chu." Cheng Shulan said.
Cheng Shulan originally wanted to think that the Han Mansion was small, and she couldn't live in this big family, and she didn't want to go to the Zhao Mansion where Han Lingyu's mother was married.
Now that he has money in his hand, as soon as he heard that Mrs. Xu was going to sell the Xu Mansion next door, she took over at a high price.
After Mrs. Xu left, Jingwen came.
Although they had never met before, Cheng Shulan recognized this person as Jingwen at a glance.
Because of this temperament, where can there be a second one for this beauty?
"You're Miss Jingwen, aren't you?" Cheng Shulan asked with a smile.
When Jingwen heard this, she hurriedly said, "You are Sister Shulan?" ”
Cheng Shulan got up and said to her, "Sister, what a fairy-like person, let's go to the backyard to talk." ”
Jingwen looked around, and said a little embarrassedly: "Sister, this won't delay you from sitting in Zhen, right?" ”
"Alas, here, why do you need me to sit for a consultation, I'm just really bored, it's just a matter of relieving boredom, if Miss Jingwen is free, you can often come and sit!" Cheng Shulan said as she led her to the backyard.
Cheng Shulan is also a great beauty, and she is moisturized by Zhao Chuan's skin-building and beautifying pills, and now she is also graceful.
The woman saw that the woman talked happily with each other, and soon became acquainted.
Of course, the two also have their own thoughts, Jingwen is curious about what kind of person is this Cheng Shulan? , Cheng Shulan is concerned about what the relationship between Jingwen and Zhao Chuan is.
According to Jingwen, she was originally a big family in the capital, but decades ago she was changed for some reason and the family declined. Jingwen was lost in the temple fair when she was young and was trafficked, and later her adoptive parents had children and treated her badly, when she was a few years old, she ran to wander the streets, and was later adopted by the master, her parents are not clear, Cheng Shulan was quite sympathetic after hearing it.
"Sister Shulan, Brother Zhao's medical skills are so powerful, who did you learn from?" Jingwen asked as she walked.
Cheng Shulan sighed and said that she didn't know very well, "Zhao Chuan has been a village doctor since he was a child, but his current medical skills are not passed on by his master when he was a child, and he himself can't say clearly, I only knew him two years ago, he was my cousin's life-saving benefactor." ”
Jingwen asked again, "Where is your cousin now?" ”
"I'm married." Cheng Shulan said lightly.
I heard that the newcomers came, Chen Suqin and Mu Yao from the Zhao Mansion came over.
Shu Lan introduced them one by one.
Jingwen was very excited to see so many girls, and volunteered to play a song for everyone.
The maid carried the guqin and played a song "Spring River Plumbing" in the living room.
Suddenly everyone was silent, these girls had heard and played the piano, but they never knew that the piano could play such a beautiful rhythm.
Cheng Shulan, Chen Suqin, Xue Yan and others praised the piano in unison.
Xue Yan clapped her hands and said, "Sister Jingwen will play another song!" ”
Jingwen replied: "Tomorrow, there will be time to play in the future!" ”
Xue Yan asked, "Sister Jingwen, can you teach me to play the piano?" ”
Jingwen smiled: "Of course you can." ”
Cheng Shulan said: "Sister Jingwen, you will accept Xueyan as an apprentice, right?" ”
Jingwen hurriedly waved her hand: "It's okay to teach my sister to learn the piano, I can't be the master of accepting apprentices, our Wuyun Peak recruits disciples every three years, and it needs to be carried out according to a certain procedure, and finally it has to be determined by the peak master." ”
When everyone heard this, they were a little surprised.
"In two months, it will be the triennial disciple recruitment conference, and I will return to Ruoling Mountain at that time, and whoever wants to go can go with me." Jingwen laughed again.
At that moment, as soon as everyone heard it, Xueyan Shuang'er dreamed of Cui'er and wanted to sign up.
Xue Yan said, "Sister Jingwen, can we sign up to join the Zixiao Sect?" ”
Jingwen said: "The others don't know, our Wuyun Peak recruits disciples are generally seven to ten years old, and if you have special talents after this age, you can also relax." ”
Everyone was disappointed.
Jingwen smiled again: "The world's practice of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting is just to cultivate sentiment, there is no need to join the sect, unlike our sect, the skills are all improved to the extreme, just like Brother Zhao's medical skills, which can save people silently, and can also kill people invisibly......"
When Xue Yan heard this, she said unhappily: "Sister, don't talk nonsense, my brother's medical skills can only save people, how can he kill people?" ”
Su Qin also pouted and said, "Sister, can qin, chess, calligraphy and painting kill people?" ”
Jingwen said seriously: "Of course, the piano can retreat from the enemy, chess can trap thousands of soldiers, painting can make people crazy, and the cultivation is extreme, all of which are unfathomable......"
When Cheng Shulan heard this, her face changed slightly, she laughed dryly, and said, "Sister said that she was laughing, let's go to dinner, and talk while eating." ”
What Shu Lan didn't expect was that Jingwen was self-cooked, and she came back a few days later, and quickly mingled with the girls.
After a long time, after a few times, the girl liked Jingwen very much, so she played casually in Zhaofu Chengfu, and sometimes she simply lived in the mansion and didn't leave.
The neighbor Mrs. Xu had already had the idea of buying a house and moving, and she acted naturally and quickly, and the handover was completed in a few days.
But the second child of the Xu family actually came over to sell his other half, saying that half of the original mansion was sold, and the overall layout was ruined and he couldn't live there, so he wanted Shu Lan to buy it together.
Cheng Shulan thought about it and agreed, but said that it would not be handed over until the end of the month.
Steward Chu approached Cheng Shulan to discuss how to renovate the newly bought mansion.
Cheng Shulan saw that there were too many houses, and she couldn't use them at all. The newly bought five-entry courtyard will be demolished in the middle wing, the front yard maid's room, the second courtyard living room as a dining room, the third or fourth into the courtyard, the outer side of the four small courtyards, the inner side is all removed, left as a vacant land and garden, a two-story square attic is built in the middle, and finally a row of tall and spacious main houses are built.
Zhao Chuan returned from Taiyue City, and it was already a month after leaving.
The renovation of Cheng Shulan's newly bought mansion is nearing completion.
Zhao Chuan naturally came to Chengfu first, and there were his wives and children here.
Cheng Shulan also wanted to see Zhao Chuan more than ever, and she felt that Zhao Chuan had undergone some kind of change since that assassination.
Jingwen's appearance made her have another thing on her mind.
Cheng Shulan will not forget the warm two-person world with Zhao Chuan when she first came to Qincheng, and she was caught off guard by Han Yuer's sudden appearance and could not do anything.
Deng Nianzhi's arrival made her suffer, Chen Suqin's addition was unexpected by her, and she swallowed the bitter fruit in consideration of the overall situation.
The appearance of Jingwen made Shu Lan feel invisible pressure.
Recently, Zhao Chuan gave her a lot of money, and she vaguely felt that Zhao Chuan was going to leave this place or go to find Cheng Shujie.
Zhao Chuan said that Jingwen knew Shu Jie's whereabouts, which confirmed Shu Lan's worries.
Zhao Chuan is indeed very busy.
Taiyue City came back, went to see his son, and met Cheng Shulan.
But Zhao Chuan didn't know what to say in the face of Cheng Shulan, he was absolutely sorry for Cheng Shulan in his heart, but he always gave money and things.
"Sister Shulan, these tens of thousands of taels of golden tickets are for you, Dingyan Dan is a good thing......
Cheng Shulan was obviously not uncommon with these things, and said, "Why are you giving me so much money?" Are you really leaving? Will you ever come back? Leave me and karma alone in the future? ”
Cheng Shulan burst into tears as she spoke, pouring out her worries and questions.
"These are all precautionary measures, as for whether to go or not, I haven't thought about it yet, I will ignore you like this, don't think nonsense."
Faced with a mess some time ago, Zhao Chuan really wanted to leave.
But in the past few years, the business and this large group of people are reluctant, and they have been hesitating.
The most tangled and reassuring is Shulan.
At present, it is still appeased, the two chatted for most of the night, and finally the rain was clear.
