Chapter Eighty-Eight: Buying Medicine
Seeing Shushen go out to buy medicine, Zhao Ming was still a little nervous, not that Zhao Ming was unwilling to buy it himself, but although Zhao Ming didn't know about some things, Zhao Ming could still guess some things. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Presumably, at this time, the dignitaries and nobles in the capital should know themselves, hehe......"
Zhao Ming looked at the formula in his hand and couldn't help but shake his head.
After all, the proprietress had said that her own recipe had taken a lot of effort to get it, and even so, he had spent a lot of effort to collect those medicinal herbs.
Although Zhao Ming couldn't see that his formula was not as good as the boss's wife, of course, the formula he got in the hands of the boss's wife was not at the same level, but even so, it was not something he could get so easily now, and the emperor wanted to reward the heroes, and the rewarded things needed to be discussed by hundreds of officials, all of them had their own processes and their own specifications, how could they get this thing so easily, it is estimated that there should be people who strongly opposed it at that time......
Zhao Ming really guessed part of it, but he never expected that there was no one in the entire court to speak for Zhao Ming at all, if it wasn't for the emperor's insistence, it would not have been able to hit Zhao Ming's head.
Zhao Ming hugged Zhao Min's little girl and walked back and forth in the yard, not that she was not at ease with Shushen, how did she say that she used to be a beautiful girl, a young grandmother from a big family, it should be no problem to buy a medicinal herb, he was worried that those pharmacies would not be too desperate, and he would definitely not be able to buy it if he went to estimate that he could open a store in the capital, it didn't matter which one could open a store in the capital, when he received the formula, it was estimated that the news had spread all over the capital, and the whole capital said that it was not big, it was not small, and some of the news was delivered very quickly,
How could those merchants let go of such a good opportunity to 'catch Kaizi', let alone an outsider like Zhao Ming, the capital has nothing to do with it.
Zhao Ming can imagine that if he goes by himself, even if he buys it, he will have to be slaughtered once by those profiteers who eat people and don't spit out bones, but he doesn't know if he will be recognized if he will be recognized if he sends Shushen.
Time passed quickly, and Zhao Ming's whole person was like an ant on a hot pot, after all, if these medicines were not available in the capital, it was estimated that they would be suspended in other places.
"Why is it so slow? It seems that we have to prepare a horse at home, otherwise it will be too much work to go back and forth. At this time, Zhao Ming even put the little Zhao Min in his hand aside and let her play by herself, pacing back and forth in the yard by herself.
In fact, Zhao Ming was so anxious that he was not afraid that the medicine that Shushen bought would be expensive, what he was worried about was that those profiteers were too desperate, so he would not sell it to Shushen, then he would have nothing to do, and he would not be able to come to the door to rob it.
Another hour passed, and at this time the sky had gradually darkened (one hour and two hours), and Zhao Ming finally waited for the person he was waiting for.
"How is it?" Zhao Ming hurriedly picked up the little girl and walked over as soon as he saw Shushen enter the courtyard.
Shushen wiped the sweat on her head and said, "I bought it, but the price offered by those stores is too high, I ...... Childe, you don't have enough money for me......" Shushen lowered her head as she spoke, she felt that she couldn't even do such a small thing, and she felt that she was really useless.
But Zhao Ming smiled, as if everything was expected.
In fact, Zhao Ming asked Shu Shen to go to see if those people were only targeting him, but he didn't want to beat those people to play so hard, since he directly increased the price of the herbs of the previous year, this is simply what a lifeline, if you want to brew real treasure wine, you have to use the herbs that are old for a long time, and in their minds, Zhao Ming is such an outsider, how can he have so much silver to buy herbs, and when the time comes, he will not obediently go to them with the formula.
They do care that the emperor will not do anything to rob him, but if Zhao Ming comes to the door with the formula, then the emperor himself has no way, this method is tried by their big families, and they have never missed it before, after all, they told them the formula and they will not lack anything, which is simply beneficial and harmless for newcomers who have no power and power, but they are wrong this time, Zhao Ming is not the kind of person who easily succumbs to power, not to mention, Zhao Ming is not short of money.
For Zhao Ming, since it is something that can be solved with money, it is not a matter, he has nowhere to spend it now, he has met local tyrants several times, and even met Zhuo Bufan, the rich second generation with the inheritance of Huijianmen, how can he not get rich.
"Hehe, since you can buy it with money now, then Shushen, you can buy all those herbs back, as long as there is a price, then you are not afraid of them playing tricks. Saying that, Zhao Ming went into the bedroom again and took out a stack of silver tickets from his baggage, Shushen felt that he was immune to silver tickets, why didn't he usually see that his son was a local tyrant.
Shushen looked at Zhao Ming with strange eyes, stretched out his hand to take the silver ticket handed over by Zhao Ming, and looked at it, okay, this time there are not even fifty taels, they are all one hundred taels directly, and Shushen didn't count them carefully, after all, his son is determined to get those herbs, and he has never thought about embezzlement, of course, there is no need to waste time.
And Shushen never saw doubt in Zhao Ming's eyes, so she naturally couldn't be unconfident in herself.
"Then I'll go first, son. As he spoke, he was about to walk out of the courtyard.
But how could Zhao Ming still let her go alone, not to mention that it was getting late, it was estimated that those shops were closed when Shushen's feet waited, the key is that Zhao Ming was not at ease with Shushen going out alone at night, although the security in the capital was relatively good, but who could guarantee that no one would take risks.
Zhao Ming didn't want to put Shushen's safety on this uncertain possibility.
"No, I'll go with you this time, and the girl will bring ...... too."
Shushen was stunned when she heard Zhao Ming's words, but she also nodded.
She also knew that if she went by herself, it would probably be dark that day, but if the little girl was left here alone, he wouldn't be at ease, so it was the only way.
Zhao Ming held the little girl in one hand and Shushen in the other, and hurried to Fang City.
This time it was much faster, and the three of them fell into the market in just ten minutes, Zhao Ming found a corner and quietly put Shushen down, he didn't want others to know that he was also coming with him, otherwise Zhao Ming was afraid that those profiteers would not sell it to you if they had money.
Zhao Ming took the little girl to go shopping, and Shushen took the money to the pharmacies and didn't come back with the herbs.
The two agreed to meet the boss at the wine shop after an hour, and it was getting late, and no one recognized it, and Zhao Ming was also relieved of the boss.
Seeing Shushen's figure disappear into the crowd, Zhao Mingcai was walking around the street with the little girl in his arms, the little girl was interested in everything, fortunately Zhao Ming had a lot of money, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
The two of them walked until everyone had closed the stall before going to the wine shop, Zhao Ming took a fancy to the little girl in his arms, this girl was probably crazy, holding a sugar gourd in her left hand, and a little sugar man in her hand, licking Huan.
It didn't take long for Zhao Ming to come to the small wine shop, and when he went in like this, Shu Shen was already waiting for him inside, of course, and the proprietress who hadn't seen her for a long time, still with her own mocking eyes......
Zhao Ming didn't pay attention to the proprietress's provocation, and asked Shushen directly, "How is it?"
Shushen didn't beat around the bush, and said bluntly: "Well, all the medicinal materials that Gongzi asked me to buy have been bought, and the years are almost the same as those in the prescription, and I even found a Tianshan Snow Lotus and a large lump of rare Dragon Yanxiang." ”
Zhao Ming couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Shushen's words, he didn't expect that there would be a kind of medicinal herb in those pharmacies that might not necessarily remain even if it was still in the palace.
But then came the surprise, so that it was one step closer to having the recipe ready.
