Chapter 1055: Being cheated of medicinal materials
"Miss, please sit down." Long Yi helped Huo Zhong sit on the stool with a serious face.
"What's wrong?" Huo Zhong was confused at first, until he saw Long Yi kneeling in front of him and kowtowed to her three times, then he reacted and asked...
"Uncle Long, what are you doing?"
Long Yi raised his head and looked at Huo Zhong, saying with lingering fear: "Miss, you saved the people of Youzhou. It is my duty to kowtow to you. If it weren't for your help, I would have gone back to Youzhou with a pile of medicine residue." Long Yi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he thought about the fact that without the medicine to save their lives, the people of Youzhou City would be dead all over the place.
The owner of the clinic is so despicable. He actually did such a conscienceless thing just to make money.
No, he must be taught a lesson.
Long Yi secretly made up his mind.
At midnight the next day, Xiao Ding and his men disguised themselves and drove a horse-drawn carriage to the clinic to trade.
In order to transport the herbs back to Youzhou as quickly as possible, Long Yi asked the giant python that had just returned from Youzhou to go with him, planning to let the python carry the herbs back to Youzhou as soon as it got the herbs.
Long Yi also dressed up as a subordinate and mixed in with them, and all the transactions were done by Xiao Ding.
"Brother Ding, you are finally here. Come in quickly." As soon as they arrived at the clinic, Manager Li was waiting for them at the door.
In the past, when there was a big transaction in the clinic, the owner would usually be there to supervise. But he didn't come tonight, and Manager Li felt very strange.
How could he know that in order to cheat Long Yi of his money, the boss stayed up all night to collect a large amount of drug residue.
It is what we call painstaking efforts.
He is so tired that he is sleeping soundly at home, the kind that cannot be woken up even by thunder.
When Xiao Ding arrived at the clinic's warehouse, he checked all the medicinal materials and gave a large box of gold to the shopkeeper, saying that his family did not have that many silver notes and could only use gold to offset the loss.
As everyone knows, Youzhou is a place where gold is produced. Shopkeeper Li did not doubt it at all. He took a glance and accepted the gold.
In order to ensure that everything was foolproof, Shopkeeper Li specially checked the herbs and only handed them to Xiao Ding after finding no problems. He also repeatedly told Xiao Ding that if he needed herbs again in the future, he must come to him.
Seeing that Manager Li was so sincere, Xiao Ding felt a little regretful that he should not have lied to him, but when he thought of the owner of the clinic, he became furious. If the young lady had not come, not only would they have spent money to buy a bunch of garbage, but most importantly, it would have killed the people of Youzhou.
After all, they were all waiting for medicinal herbs to save their lives.
However, the owner of the clinic sold them the drug residues that had no medicinal effect. It is no exaggeration to say that he was cruel and insane.
Xiao Ding thought about it again and again, and finally gave a token to Shopkeeper Li, and said: "Shopkeeper Li, you are a good person. I believe you have guessed who we are. My master said that if one day you can't make it in the clinic, you can come to us. We will definitely repay you for this favor today."
Shopkeeper Li took the token and found it was just an ordinary jade pendant, so he accepted it and said jokingly, "Okay, if I can't make it in the clinic, I'll come to you. You have to give me a bite to eat then, hahaha..."
"Sure." Xiao Ding clasped his fists seriously, then left with his men pushing the cart full of medicinal herbs.
Manager Li stood at the door of the clinic and watched them leave until they were out of sight. Then he locked the door, got in his carriage and went home to sleep.
In the alley.
Under the dim moonlight, Long saw that there was no one around, so he immediately waved to the giant python on the eaves, signaling it to come down.
"Hiss..., General Long, here I come." The giant python squirmed its long body, flew down from the eaves, and stopped steadily in front of them.
Long Yi took out all the ropes that had been prepared long ago, and then together with his men, tied all the medicinal herbs on the back of the python.
Fortunately, the python's body was quite long, more than ten meters long, which was more than enough to tie up all the medicinal materials.
Xiao Ding was a little worried. There were thousands of kilograms of medicinal herbs on its back. Could the python still fly with them?
He asked the question...
"General Long, with so many medicinal herbs tied to its back, can the python still fly?"
Long Yi didn't know either, so he looked up at the python and asked it if it was okay.
The python seemed to understand what he said, nodded, spit out its tongue, and hissed...
"General Long, we are all men, how can we say no? Yes, of course."
It has to be done even if it doesn't work. Our ancestors are still waiting for the medicinal materials to save the lives of the people, and it can't be a drag.
Seeing the python nod, Long Yi felt relieved and said...
"The python is fine. The most important thing is that you should tie up the herbs tightly and don't lose them."
"Yes." After the men had bundled up the herbs, they checked them again to make sure everything was safe before letting the python fly away.
Because there were so many herbs on its back, the python had a hard time flying as it dragged its bloated body. After finally flying into the air, it stumbled and seemed like it would fall at any time. Everyone watched in fear.
Xiao Ding looked up into the air and asked worriedly, "General Long, is this snake reliable?"
Long Yi said, what can we do if it is unreliable? The medicinal materials have been carried away and cannot be brought back. Now we can only trust the python.
"The Snake King is extremely powerful. It's okay."
I don't know whether this sentence is to comfort my subordinates or to comfort myself.
"Let's go. The young lady is still waiting at home. Let's go back and pack our things and leave Dayao country early tomorrow morning."
Early the next morning, when the owner of the clinic woke up and remembered the transaction last night, he didn't even have breakfast and hurried to the clinic.
At the beginning, he was very proud when he heard Manager Li say that everything was going well in the transaction.
However, later, he went to the warehouse on a whim and found thousands of kilograms of medicinal residues. He was shocked. Didn’t he sell these medicinal residues as good medicinal materials to those people in Youzhou? Why were they still here?
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and rushed to another direction like crazy, only to find that all the good medicinal materials in the clinic were gone.
The boss was immediately furious and roared...
"What's going on? What happened? Where are my herbs? Where did they go?"
"Tell me, was it bought by someone from Youzhou?" He turned around, grabbed the front of a waiter's clothes, and asked with a ferocious look on his face.
The guy was so scared that he pissed himself. He had never seen his boss so angry before. It was too scary. He replied tremblingly...
"Boss, I don't know. I didn't work last night. You should ask the shopkeeper about this matter."
The boss was extremely suspicious and didn't believe what his clerks said at all. In the entire clinic, they were the only ones who knew that he was cheating on his clerks. Even Manager Li didn't know.
They didn't leak the secret, so how could the medicinal herbs disappear?
"Tell me, who leaked the secret?" he asked viciously.
Several guys were scared to death and quickly knelt on the ground. To be honest, they did not betray their boss and they knew nothing about the good medicinal materials.
Seeing that they did not seem to be lying, the boss had no choice but to let them go.
"Go and call Manager Li over." He wanted to see if this old guy had betrayed him.
"Yes, I'll call Manager Li over right away." The guys responded in unison as if they had been granted amnesty, turned around and ran away together.
The boss was angered again by their behavior of running away: "......"
Is he a ghost?
Is it that scary?
Why are they running so fast?
Besides, it would be enough to just ask one person to go. What's the point of asking them to go together?
Soon, Shopkeeper Li was called over. He thought the boss wanted to ask about last night's transaction, but when they met, he said happily...
"Boss, don't worry. The transaction last night was very successful. The government didn't find out about our transaction."
"I put the box of gold I received in the accounting office. Not to mention that those people were quite generous in purchasing medicinal materials."
The boss was about to get angry when he heard the words "a box of gold". His eyes widened and he couldn't wait to ask...
"Manager Li, did I hear you correctly? A box of gold?"
Shopkeeper Li nodded and said, "Boss, this is absolutely true. The gold is in the account office. Go check it."
In fact, those medicinal herbs were not worth that much money, but the other party insisted on giving so much, so he accepted it reluctantly.
The boss didn't care about the lost herbs, and hurried to the accounting office with his men. When he saw the box of gold, his eyes lit up. However, when he picked up a piece of gold in his hand, his face changed immediately. He quickly put it to his mouth and bit it, and his teeth were almost knocked out. Moreover, the paint on the gold was peeling off.
His face immediately turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he roared angrily at Shopkeeper Li behind him...
"Shopkeeper Li, is this the money you collected?"
Shopkeeper Li was also shocked when he saw this. He quickly picked up a piece of gold, put it to his mouth and bit it hard. Sure enough, the gold was hard and not soft at all, and the paint was peeling off, which meant that this batch of gold was fake.
He was completely dumbfounded. Just to be cautious, he had carefully checked the gold and it was indeed real. How could it become fake now?
"No, sir, I checked it at the time, and it is indeed real gold."
The boss was furious when he heard this. He threw the gold in his hand and cursed: "Where is the real gold now? Where did it go? Did you embezzle it?"
Shopkeeper Li wanted to cry but had no tears: "How could I have the courage to do that?"
Of course the boss knew that he didn't have the courage, otherwise he wouldn't have invited him to be the manager of the clinic. It was because he was honest and simple.
"That group of people in Youzhou is so despicable. I wanted to use the medicinal residue to cheat them out of some money, but I didn't expect that they were the masters. Not only did they cheat me of my good medicinal materials, they also cheated me of my money. I can't swallow this bitter pill."
Shopkeeper Li was confused. What was the boss talking about? What medicinal residue? What good medicinal material?
He is in charge of checking the medicinal materials in their clinic, so isn't the quality always very good?
