Chapter 258: Don’t you have any idea?
Feng Jing: ...
He still remembered what his father had told him before he died, asking him to be a compassionate doctor and save the world.
Why does his niece have completely different ideas from his?
Feng Nian'er patted his arm and said, "Don't just stand there, uncle. Get back to work."
"We need to earn more money and store more food before winter comes."
……
……
Beijing.
The servant in shorts hurried to the back door of a small courtyard and knocked three times gently.
The wooden door was opened a crack, revealing a scarred face.
"Scar Master, our master asked me to buy some medicine." The servant didn't dare to look at the face inside the door, and only dared to look at the man's feet.
"How much do you want?" Lin Yuanxiu asked coldly.
The servant quickly raised his hand and said, "Five, five bottles."
Lin Yuanxiu said impatiently, "Tsk," "Five hundred taels."
The servant nodded quickly, and said in a very low voice, "I know, I brought them all."
Lin Yuanxiu turned his head and waved, "Five."
A skinny man was standing under the eaves. Upon hearing this, he turned back into the house and took out five small glass bottles.
The servant handed over the banknote in one hand and took the medicine in the other. He hid the medicine in his arms and left quickly.
Lin Yuanxiu watched his figure disappear into the alley and said to the skinny man, "Go ask them later when we can leave."
The man said, "I understand, Captain."
As he said this, he rubbed his hands and stretched lazily.
"Finally, I'm going home. This capital city is not a place for people to stay."
Another man popped his head out of the house and added casually, "That's right. One brick would hit four or five officials. Prices are high, and even going out to breathe costs money."
Songjiabao is still better. The prices are low, the wages are high, and most importantly, it is safe. You don’t have to worry about offending some dignitaries and losing your life.
Lin Yuanxiu put his hands behind his back and glanced at them one by one. "The closer we are to go back, the more we must not slack off. Cheer up."
Everyone responded, "Don't worry, Captain, we are all alert!"
……
……
Almost all the goods Lu Ying brought back were sold out.
But he actually knew very well that these goods were just a small part of the profit, and the real big part was in the dark.
Don't think he didn't recognize the pills in those glass bottles. He saw several uncles in the family taking them.
I heard it's very expensive, 100 taels for a bottle, and only contains ten small pills, but I heard the effect is very good, no harm to people, it is a real medicine for nourishing the body.
However, he had no say in Songjiabao. If he had not been obedient, they might have sent him directly to see his father.
The day before returning to Jiangnan, Yang Shaochun gave Lu Ying three bottles of antidote and a half-person-high carved mirror.
"Our young lady said that this mirror is a gift for Concubine Li. Please help pass it on, Master Lu."
When Lu Ying saw such a clear mirror, he felt numb all over.
If this mirror were sold, it would have fetched tens of thousands of taels. And they were just sending it to the palace? What were they thinking? This doesn't seem like the Song Family Fort's style at all.
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to ask, fearing that if he asked a few more questions, his life would be shortened. These people were cruel and ruthless, and he couldn't afford to offend them.
"I understand. I will pass it on." After a pause, he asked about his wife, children and mother.
Yang Shaochun looked at him in confusion, "You actually still remember your wife, children, and mother?"
Lu Ying: ???
"I...I shouldn't ask?"
Yang Shaochun pulled out a thick letter from his pocket and slammed it on the table. "I thought you had forgotten about them all! You never cared about them..."
He muttered to himself, but Lu Ying heard his complaints clearly.
Lu Ying: ???
Why didn’t I ask? Don’t you have any idea?
It's not because they are afraid that after asking, you will do something to hurt them.
