Chapter 369: Shut the Old Man Up by the Way
mountains as a hunter is a real waste of talent.He was simply born into hardship, experiencing more suffering than most people. With a sickly mother and young siblings to care for, the burden of resp...Just as Fang Jinxiu left, the poisoned elder brother carried his younger brother and placed him on a chair inside the medical hall. He thought his brother wouldn't wake up so quickly, but to his surprise, as soon as he straightened up, he heard his brother call out his name.
"Big brother."
Everyone was astonished, including Zhao Xingzhou, when they saw the man had woken up.
"Brother, you're awake! That's great. How are you feeling now"
Zhao Xingzhou was shocked, watching the color of his subordinate's lips gradually return to normal. There were those among his subordinates who knew medicine, and Zhao Xingzhou gave a wink. The person beside him immediately stepped forward to take the pulse of the poisoned man.
A moment later, the person who had been feeling his pulse returned to him.
"Master Jiu, the poison is gone."
Really solved Just that village woman
Zhao Xingzhou narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment and ordered, "Immediately dispatch someone to follow them and investigate the backgrounds of these individuals."
Yes, Ninth Master.
Fang Jinshi and a few others came out of He'an Hall. Things hadn't gone as planned. Li Muhai, clearly getting impatient, stepped forward to block Fang Jinshi's path.
"Madam Zong, didn't you say you had a way to make He'an Tang return our money Why did you just leave"
Fang Jinshi walked while turning her head to look at the shops on both sides of the street, seeing what was sold in the county town.
She replied faintly, "The silver in your family was scammed by that incompetent doctor. An Tang is backed by the Zhao family. If the Zhao family doesn't want this scandal exposed, it won't matter if we stay there."
Li Muhai was taken aback, apparently not understanding her meaning.
"As for whether we can get the money, Zhao's family is more helpful in that regard," Zong Yu added.
When Li Muhai heard this, he was even more puzzled. Since they had to borrow money from the Zhao family, why would they go to Andong today
Fang Jinxiu pretended to go to the doctor with An Tang, also intending to expose the true face of that incompetent doctor. However, she didn't plan to make a public spectacle out of it.
Just want to use this as leverage to gain the power to speak with the head of Zhao's family.
Firstly, to get back the silver that was cheated from the Li family on the prescription. Secondly, to sell good goods to the Li family.
Her purpose is to do business with people, how could she possibly sabotage the clinic's business
If that rascal hadn't suddenly popped up and disrupted her plans, she should have been sitting down with the Zhao family manager to discuss business by now.
Since Plan A failed, she'd just implement Plan B. She could handle this much difficulty.
Ever since she heard that the Zhao family was the biggest pharmaceutical family in Luoshui City, she spent a little money to find out a lot about them from the neighbors of Li's family.
Although the Zhao family ran a pharmacy, there weren't many skilled physicians in the household. Zhao's fifth daughter was born frail and sickly; numerous renowned doctors and healers failed to cure her.
Since someone in the Zhao family was ill, wasn't that a perfect opportunity for her to get into the Zhao family
Fang Jinxiu had someone inquire about the Zhao family's address, and Zhao Xingzhou got this information.
"What did you say Is she asking around for our Zhao family's address"
It seems like the woman has indeed come for their family.
He glanced at his subordinate who had fully recovered from the poison. Countless doubts flashed in his eyes. At that time, the woman hadn't done anything, she just gave him a few needles and a bowl of white powder water. It was so easy to detoxify their family's special poison.
Either this person has incredible medical skills, or they came to the Zhao family with a purpose, having thoroughly researched their situation beforehand.
Judging from their attire, that's highly unlikely.
To verify his guess, Zhao Xingzhou decided to test Fang Jinxiu again.
If she is indeed a highly skilled physician, the Zhao family would certainly want to befriend her and ideally recruit her for their own use.
He leaned in close to his subordinate's ear and whispered a few instructions, arranging for a "probe" to be conducted.
Fang Jinshu came directly to the Zhao family's door. If she wasn't in a hurry to go home, she might have thought of more ways to get closer to the Zhao family.
As the saying goes, too much eagerness in a deal is not good. Even if it's a great product, being overly pushy will lead people to bargain down the price.
Three people squatted at the door of Zhao's house for almost half an hour, and Li Muhai couldn't help asking.
"Mistress, the Zhao family is right in front of us. Why are we still squatting here and not going in"
Fang Jinshi was beginning to regret bringing this old man out. What on earth had she been thinking
"See those guards at the Zhao family's gate"
Li Muhai nodded. "I saw it."
Looking at his silly expression, Fang Jinshu raised an eyebrow. Wasn't this a perfect opportunity to ask for directions
"Uncle Li, I think you're right. It's time to just go and ask directly. Waiting like this isn't going to help."
Li Muhai nodded in agreement, "It's true, my legs are about to go numb from squatting."
"Then you ask if the manager of Zhao's household is available. Tell them we have business to discuss with them and see if we can go in directly."
Li Muhai didn't think much, as soon as Fang Jinshu finished speaking, he went.
The couple stood up and hid behind a tree.
"If Old Man Li gets beaten up, the Li family might blame you."
Fang Jinshu smiled with a wry expression, saying, "There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world. If they want to use me to get back the silver that was stolen from them, wouldn't they have to pay some price"
And it would also shut that old geezer up..She changed her mind and grabbed Fang Mingxia's sleeve, "It's you, sister.""I remember.""Since it's been so long, why don't we sisters find a place to sit down and have a good chat"I also want to kno...
