I am happy to be a mother in a famine year, I have a system to farm the land

The shopkeeper nodded.

"I know."

This pharmaceutical workshop is a famous place in their Qingshui County, how could he not know?

Seeing the shopkeeper's nod, Fanbangren chuckled lightly.

"It's good for the shopkeeper to know. What I want the shopkeeper to do is to get this pharmaceutical workshop."

When the shopkeeper heard the other party's intention, he frowned immediately.

He knew that this pharmaceutical workshop cooperated with Jishitang.

Moreover, Jishi Hall is located all over the Zhou Dynasty. Although he knows that there are people behind Jishi Hall, he does not know who they are.

But the shopkeeper is not stupid. To be able to open such a medical clinic for the whole of Zhou Dynasty, the identity of the person behind it must not be simple.

Now the people of this country are actually eyeing this pharmaceutical workshop, but he didn't do it himself. Instead, he found someone to do it for him.

If there is no ghost in this, even the stupidest kid in their gambling shop wouldn't believe it.

"What does the shopkeeper think?"

Seeing that the shopkeeper hadn't spoken for a long time, the foreigner couldn't help but ask.

The shopkeeper saw that the other party did not look anxious, but instead had a calm expression on his face, as if he was sure that he would agree to this matter.

The shopkeeper laughed when he saw the Fanbang people acting like this.

He didn't believe that the other party didn't know that there was someone behind Jishitang. Now that the other party was unwilling to do these things themselves, they found someone to do it instead. This was to make them take the blame.

Thinking of this, the shopkeeper's smile faded and his face darkened.

He is indeed in urgent need of money to give to his brothers, but this does not mean that he will push his brothers to a dead end.

"You are so calculating. Since you said I am a figure in Qingshui County, how could you assume that I don't know about the cooperation between this pharmaceutical workshop and Jishitang?"

"And there is a big shot behind this Jishi Hall. Are you asking us to take the blame for you?"

"Haha, do you really think you are from Fanbang and I dare not touch you?"

Although the emperor is now trying to negotiate peace with the Fanbang people, if a small Fanbang person dies in a small county, it will not be enough to attract the attention of the court.

Sure enough, the faces of the Fanbang people who had looked so proud just now changed when they heard the shopkeeper's words.

"Shopkeeper, I'm here to do serious business with you, and I'm not joking with you."

Fan Bangren said it very seriously, as if he was so serious from the beginning.

However, when the shopkeeper saw this, he sneered.

When he saw this foreigner for the first time, he knew that he was dishonest.

Now that he saw that this countryman was still trying to play tricks, the shopkeeper became completely cold-faced.

"Since you don't sincerely want to do business with us, then please go ahead and leave without sending me away."

Hearing that the shopkeeper saw off the guests so directly, the people from Bangbang suddenly became anxious.

"and many more!"

"Shopkeeper, we can discuss this further."

The shopkeeper saw beads of sweat appearing on Fanbang's forehead, and then waved to the people around him.

The Fanbang people were relieved when they saw the person who was about to attack him retreat.

"If the shopkeeper has any opinions, just tell me."

The shopkeeper was very excited when he thought of the five hundred taels of gold that the other party had just proposed.

But he is also the kind of person who does not get rewarded for his merits. He takes money without doing anything for the other party, and he is not stable in his heart.

After thinking for a long time, he said: "It is naturally impossible for our people to take down the workshop for you, but we can do other things to influence Jishi Hall."

"But I won't charge you five hundred taels of gold to do this. You can just give me one hundred taels of gold."

When the Fanbang people heard this, they wanted to say something, but when they saw the fierce-looking thugs next to the shopkeeper, they finally nodded.

Zhang Siyuan also didn't expect that it was the shopkeeper who was approached by the other party.

"Then Wu Gang is the person you found for him?"

The shopkeeper shook his head, "I didn't find Wu Gang. People like Wu Gang are unreliable and can't control themselves. I would never find someone like that to work for me."

"Wu Gang was found by that person himself. Wu Gang lost a lot of money with me that day. I met him when he was thrown out."

"Our people said that they didn't know what they said at that time, but they spoke for a long time. Wu Gang seemed to hesitate at first, but finally nodded."

"When Wu Gang returned, the foreigner came to me and said that he wanted Wu Gang to work for him in the future."

"I thought Wu Gang was just a guest of our gambling house, not my brother, so I agreed to this."

"But the people in that country didn't know about this. They thought Wu Gang was punished and kicked out because he did something wrong."

Zhang Siyuan frowned and thought, "So you just let him misunderstand you?"

The shopkeeper sighed and nodded.

"I have no choice. Brothers like me have to open their mouths to eat. Naturally, I won't miss such a good opportunity."

"It's just that I didn't expect that someone like Wu Gang could take you to a gambling house."

Thinking of this, the shopkeeper still can't believe it.

Who would have thought that a fool like Wu Gang, who has no bottom line, would have a friend like Zhang Siyuan?

But now it seems that his initial intuition was right.

How could Zhang Siyuan be friends with a fool like Wu Gang?

"On the day you closed Jishi Hall, I took people to Zuixian Tower to find a foreigner. I took away one hundred taels of gold from him. If you really doubt him, it is not impossible."

"When I took the money away, the faces of those people were not very good."

The shopkeeper was not lying in his words. The shopkeeper has not forgotten the resentful look in his eyes before.

It is not impossible for the other party to use this as revenge.

After all, what Wu Gang promised to that person has not come true now.

And these people also took away part of his money, so he would naturally not be happy.

Zhang Siyuan nodded after hearing the shopkeeper's analysis.

"The other party may indeed become angry and kill someone."

And if he remembered correctly, the time when traitors appeared on the border was exactly one month ago.

What is the relationship between this foreigner and the other side of the border?

Zhang Siyuan looked at the shopkeeper in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and finally put down the tea cup.

"The shopkeeper doesn't know, but the people of Dazhou and Fanbang are currently fighting. The situation on our border with Dazhou is very critical. We originally thought we could defend the city on the border, but something happened there a month ago."

"One of our Zhou governors rebelled, which led to people from Fanbang massacring the city. Although the people in the city generally escaped desperately, the casualties were not small."
