Starting from the Greyhound, seventy-two changes
Chapter 59 Report
In the Medicine King Hall.
Chen Ku was digesting the news and intelligence he got tonight at this banquet that was not part of his circle.
"If nothing else, if I can get the bait rat and sell it to these noble men, I can at least make a lot of money!"
I heard from them that this bait rat is worth at least two to three hundred taels of silver. If you can catch three or four of them, you will pocket a thousand taels of silver.
If there is another pandemic like they are talking about and typhoid fever spreads, the price will probably be even higher.
And Chen Ku did not forget another piece of news he heard.
Peaceful way?
Free talisman water to cure diseases?
Even the young ladies in this world, when they heard about this, knew that something was not right and there was definitely a conspiracy.
After all, how can there be a free lunch in the world?
What's more, Chen Ku has seen so many information explosions in his previous life, combined with some historical things?
When there is a big disaster or epidemic, will Fu Shui cure the disease?
Coupled with the "Ping An Dao" of Laoshizi, and the smell of white lotus and peace, it is definitely a big plan, not to mention that this is the border, once chaos breaks out...
When the time comes, I'm afraid it won't just be as simple as not having enough to eat, but the general trend of the world will come at once, not to mention him, even the entire Yaowangtang, I'm afraid it won't be able to withstand it.
Therefore, Chen Ku has some sense of urgency to be prepared for danger in times of peace.
Whether it is to save more money or to save more cultivation, it is all in order to survive in this world and live better. We must not fall under the avalanche caused by a certain environment.
"There are bait rats in Yaowangtang, used to test medicines. With my current relationship with Master Ke, I should be qualified to take a look, at least smell it, and then send the fine dog out to the two I went to look for it over at Jieshan..."
Thinking like this, he fell into a deep sleep.
But he didn't know,
In the Lianjia Mountain Forest where Xi Quan often haunted before, an unexpected person appeared here.
"Huang Yaoshi, are you here to collect medicines late at night? This kind of thing can't trouble a great pharmacist like you!" The Lian family's servants had a cart of herbs picked together delivered to Huang Gun and his assistant.
"The quality of the medicinal materials recently delivered by your medicine mountain is not even the slightest bit poor."
Huang Gun said with a cold face:
"If I don't come here in person, it will appear that my Yaowangtang is not afraid at all in the eyes of your family, right?"
He was originally in charge of the inner treasury of Yaowangtang, and all medicinal materials and the entry and exit of the treasury were his responsibility.
Now even the medicinal materials sent by the medicine supplier to the family are all defective, and he has not been given any filial piety. Even if he is a stone man, he cannot turn a blind eye and pretend not to see anything.
Why?
When the manager of the Lian family heard this, he immediately felt guilty, and then argued with a grimace:
"This... there is also an inside story. The main reason is that something strange has happened in this mountain recently. The rare and high-quality medicinal materials are becoming less and less every day. We thought it was some good medicine collector who was digging for our family's medicine on the mountain. It was short, but after a few days of inspection, it was indeed not there... I found out later that there seemed to be some kind of dog demon on the mountain that had become a spirit and was stealing herbs every day... Where the traces of the herbs were, you could always find small dog footprints..."
"Sinu... um, Sinu?"
Huang Gun originally heard that demons were digging for medicine, but he didn't take it seriously. After all, warriors with higher levels of internal energy would eat demons as meat. Some demon meat can replenish qi and blood more than ordinary treasure grass...
But after hearing that the demon is a thin dog.
The uneasiness that was originally buried deep in his heart suddenly appeared as if it was ignited by something.
It made him subconsciously think of what he was most worried about...
The detective found out that his nephew Huang Ba was bitten to death by a small dog and the money box that was lost at his nephew's house. The key was that the money box contained some letters in which he asked his nephew to resell items from the Yaowang Hall's treasury for him...
At this time, thin dogs and demons are digging for medicine...
Combine something.
Treasure medicine, apprentice, Huang Ba, fellow villagers...
Huang Gun subconsciously seemed to have caught some context.
The only thing that doesn't make sense is...
"What kind of thin dog must he be to be so psychic?"
Because even demons have only cultivated demonic energy. In most cases, they are still beasts and beasts, not intelligent enough...
What's more, if a thin dog is a demon-level dog, how can it be driven by a bitter, mud-legged person?
Why?
But Huang Gun couldn't help but think otherwise.
What if?
There are always some people in this world who have adventures?
"If it is really that Chen Ku... He is currently popular in front of Ke Yansheng, there is no way I can investigate and deal with him in the yard... If we really break up, if the letter is really in his hands, won't it be me who dies? "
Huang Gun was deep in thought:
"Anyway, pay more attention to him these days. If it's really him... You can't touch him inside the hall, but you can't touch him outside the hall?"
In the inner treasury, there is a strange medicinal powder called 'Corpse Transformation Powder', which can completely transform bones, let alone corpses.
My mind turned to how heavy it was.
Huang Gun looked at the steward of the Lian family in front of him with cold eyes:
"Is this the explanation you gave me? It seems that we need to ask the shopkeeper in our hall to personally talk to you family heads about this matter, what should we do! After all, no one in Baojiao County dares to do this Insult me, Yaowangtang!”
Even if it is true that the demon has emptied the mountain of medicine, it is not a reason to shoddy the medicine.
The face of the Lian family steward changed again and again. This matter cannot be called four-liang. After all, everyone knows that there is a lot of money in purchasing medicinal materials. If he is greedy, others will be greedy...
The reason why this happened today is simply that the treasury manager of Yaowang Hall did not let the treasurer get greedy, or in other words, he was less greedy.
Therefore, smart people like these people immediately know what to do.
"Huang Yaoshi, calm down. Of course, we must have done something wrong in this matter. Please get a charter. How can we avoid making things worse?" Manager Lian said.
Huang Gun said calmly: "Of course it's very simple. Make up for what you owe and make some amends."
Even the steward gritted his teeth, but he didn't expect that this greedy man not only wanted to take what he owed, but also wanted to pay him tribute again.
Late at night, Huang Gun took advantage of the benefits and returned to the city with two carts of medicinal materials, one cart back to Yaowangtang and the other cart elsewhere.
This time, he was greedy for at least five hundred taels.
…………
[Those who have Huang Gun will have unfavorable thoughts towards the owner of the picture]
Chen Ku woke up in the middle of the night and saw the reminder on the change chart. He couldn't help but change his color slightly, and then became serious.
Huang Gon?
The last time I was unkind to myself, I was reminded once by the change chart, and now I am reminded again, using the same word as ‘unfavorable thoughts’…
"What did he find?"
Chen Ku's eyes flashed slightly, thinking that those few letters were enough to ruin Huang Gun's reputation in Yaowangtang, but his own prestige was obviously not enough.
After all, to be able to hold such a key position in the inner treasury of Medicine King Hall, it doesn’t take much to figure out who else might be relying on him behind his back. It would be difficult to defeat him with just a few letters and a report from a young apprentice like himself.
But since the change map has a reminder, we have to consider taking the first step.
"Give those letters to Master Ke?"
Thinking about Master Ke’s character.
Apart from anything else, I regard myself as a true successor and consider myself in every possible way.
But after handing over the letter, if he asked where it came from, it would be difficult to hide the secret of his killing of Huang Ba and the transformation of Xi Quan.
After all, you can do things like murder, but you can't talk about it to everyone, and you can't make it public so generously, not to mention that the change map is your foundation.
"If I can't report it openly, it will expose myself. Then I can directly put it on Yao Wangtang's face secretly. Even if I can't kill Huang Gun, I still have to strike first and make him lose his skin."
The letter was still in the yard outside. Chen Ku immediately got up from the bed and drove the Suburban to make sure no one was following him and went to get the letter back.
He took out one of the letters, opened the contents, and directly at night, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, he pasted it on the door frame of the Yaowang Hall with paste. It contained the amount of money that had been used to embezzle the medicinal materials from the inner treasury and sell them outside. …
Then I go to bed and wait for dawn, looking forward to the hall opening tomorrow and my reaction after seeing the letter on the door.
