Infinity we are monsters

Chapter 192 The show is about to begin (first update)
This is what Zhao Chenping wanted.

Immediately, the corner of his mouth turned up slightly, and he reached out and took out two deeds of sale from his bosom, and handed them to Xu Xiandao: "Hanwen, this is their deed of sale, I have already bought them for you."

"This... isn't it good!?"

Xu Xian refused to accept it, thinking it was too precious, but when he thought of the tears in the corners of the two girls' eyes, he felt that it was difficult to refuse, and his expression could not help but change.

Zhao Chenping secretly smiled inwardly, and stuffed the two deeds of selling himself into his hands, saying: "Between us brothers, there is nothing to be embarrassed about! These days, you have worked so hard for the branch of Baohetang Pharmacy, making the business flourish. I can see it all, these two girls, even if I give you a reward, you must not refuse."

"But this is too expensive!"

"Hey, what are you talking about! Money is something outside of yourself, as long as you are satisfied with those two girls, the money is worth it! And I have redeemed them now, if you don't accept them, why don't you ask me to find another one?" The brothel can't sell them."

When Xu Xian heard the words, a trace of reluctance flashed in Xu Xian's eyes. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Since the eldest brother said so, it would be unreasonable for me to refuse, but I will definitely return the ransom for the two of them in the future."

"Tsk, you're already separated now. Isn't it just a matter of a few hundred taels of silver? How can you be so serious about it?"

"Brother, I know you have good intentions, but I will pay back the money no matter what."

Seeing his serious face, Zhao Chenping said no more, "You can do whatever you want, but you should go back and take a good look at your two beauties now!"

A happy smile appeared on Xu Xian's face, he turned around and was about to go back to his room, but when he was about to open the door, he suddenly paused, turned his head and said worriedly: "Brother, is it too much to take them into the medicinal materials?" Is it inconvenient?"

After hearing this, Zhao Chenping felt inexplicably emotional, this Xu Xian is really a good person, and at this moment, he was still thinking about buying medicinal materials!No wonder Bai Suzhen would marry him. Although there was a sense of repayment, if Xu Xian was really a philistine ordinary person, how could the arrogant Bai Suzhen marry him.

It seems that the training cannot be relaxed yet.

After thinking about this, Zhao Chenping smiled slightly and said: "You don't have to worry about buying medicine. I can handle it myself. You should cultivate your relationship with the two girls here and don't let them feel like they are goods. So complaining."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xu Xian to speak, he pushed open the door and pushed him in.

. . .

Two days later, Zhao Chenping and Xu Xian drove to Qiantang County with more than a dozen people and five carts of medicinal materials. Behind the convoy, there was a carriage with Xu Xian's two concubines sitting in it. Bai Ling, a Su Mei, is a sensible and exquisite woman, flattering Xu Xian in every possible way along the way, and at the same time respecting Zhao Chenping very much.

When he arrived in Qiantang County, Zhao Shenping transported four carts of medicinal materials to Baohetang, and one cart to the branch managed by Xu Xian, and then rented a yard next to the medicine shop for Xu Xian to house Bailing and Su Mei. Since then, Xu Xian has lived happily ever after The happy days of hugging left and right.

It's just that within a month of this good day, Xu Xian came to Baohetang again to find Zhao Chenping who was meditating in the backyard, and asked him to borrow money with some embarrassment.

Zhao Chenping smiled slightly, did not shirk, and immediately lent him 50 taels of silver. However, after receiving the money, Xu Xian did not leave, but stood there with a tangled expression. After questioning, he found out that he wanted to learn gambling.

Zhao Chenping was overjoyed. Xu Xian wanted to learn how to gamble, which meant that he had started to speculate. So, how could Zhao Chenping let him down, immediately took him to the casino, and won more than 100 taels of silver.

Filled with joy, Xu Xian bought a lot of jewelry for Bai Ling and Su Mei, and after thinking about it, he bought a hairpin for his sister, so he bid farewell to Zhao Chenping and left in a hurry.

In the following two months, Xu Xian begged Zhao Chenping to go to the casino a few times. Later, he consciously learned a lot of gambling skills, so he went there secretly once. In the end, he won more than a dozen taels, so he became addicted, and couldn't help but gamble a few times from time to time. After half a month, he owed a huge debt of 500 taels to the casino. The house deed of Su Mei's yard was mortgaged.It's just that the casino is not satisfied, saying that the yard is not worth 500 taels at all, and it is only when he gives them the Bailing and Su Mei.

Only then did Xu Xian realize that he was afraid, and hurriedly asked Zhao Chenping for help.

After Zhao Chenping found out the whole story, he immediately burst into joy in his heart, but on the surface he reprimanded Xu Xian sternly.Later, Zhao Chenping paid off Xu Xian's gambling debt. He thought he would become addicted to gambling, but he didn't know whether the reprimand was too harsh or Xu Xian had strong self-control, so he quietly gave up his gambling addiction.

From then on, Xu Xian never went to the casino again, even sometimes Zhao Chenping asked him to go to guarantee his winnings, but he refused with words.As a result, Xu Xian started to worry about money all day long, but even so, he still didn't gamble, and he didn't accept Zhao Chenping's help.

For a moment, Zhao Chenping felt that he had nowhere to attack.

However, soon, he thought of an idea.

Do business.

The business place is a big dyeing vat. If Xu Xian falls into it, he will always be dyed black.

Zhao Chenping shared his idea with him, and Xu Xian, who was thinking about money like crazy, readily agreed.Although Zhao Chenping doesn't know how to do business, he knows that it is best to do monopoly business, and Xu Xian is in Qiantang County, so he can be regarded as a related household of the county government. Immediately, Zhao Chenping discussed with Xu Xian to buy all the pharmacies in Qiantang County. Only one pharmacy, Baohetang, exists in Qiantang County.

Although Xu Xian felt that this was a bit domineering, but when he thought of Zhao Chenping and the great prospects he had drawn, he didn't say much.

At the beginning, Zhao Chenping really wanted to buy various pharmacies in Qiantang County through the normal way. Those small pharmacies are easy to talk about. If you give more money, you can buy them. There is only one old store called Qingyutang, Ren Zhao Shenping and Xu Xian As for how much money to pay, Wang Yuanwai, the shopkeeper, just disagreed.

Zhao Chenping competed viciously with him, selling medicines at low prices, Qingyutang has a deep foundation, and it won't hurt his bones for a while. After a few months of entanglement, Zhao Shenping got impatient, and secretly used magic to switch his medicinal materials , put some counterfeit medicines in his medicine cabinet, at the same time, Zhao Chenping closed the Baohe Hall for a few days, making the Qingyu Hall overcrowded. It wasn't until the next day that a dozen people who had eaten their stomachs went up to the Qingyu Hall, and the king inspected the medicinal materials before he discovered the truth.

It's just that there are all the witnesses and material evidences at this time, so the royal officials can't tell what they have to say, and Zhao Chenping even encouraged the common people to sue Qingyutang to the county government.

The case was simple and clear, and Yangzhi County was bought by Zhao Shenping, and the court judged Wang Yuanwai for selling fake medicines, causing harm to the people, a heinous crime, and Qingyu Hall was sealed up.

As a result, there is only one pharmacy left in the entire Qiantang County, and that is Baohetang.

It's just that Xu Xian, who has become the big shopkeeper of four pharmacies, is often a little distracted and taciturn.

Of course Zhao Chenping knew why, but he just didn't point it out, until after Xu Xian held back for a few days, when he was drinking at his house at night, he asked.

"Brother, tell me the truth, did you put the fake medicine in Qingyutang?"

Zhao Chenping played with the wine glass, and said meaningfully: "Hanwen, you are an upright person, it is better not to know some things."

Although Xu Xian was a little drunk, but still rational, he heard the meaning of his words, and immediately said a little puzzled: "Brother, there is no grievance, no enmity, why did you frame that Wang Yuanwai?"

"No injustice or enmity? In Chinese, haven't you heard the saying that colleagues are enemies? Besides, at the beginning, we were going to buy Qingyutang, and the price was not low, but Wang Yuanwai never let go. There is no way to do it.”

"But we were wrong to do this!"

At this time, Xu Xian blushed and looked at Zhao Chenping with burning eyes, as if he was the one who was ruined.

"Hanwen, you are still young! You must know that a business field is like a battlefield. If Qingyutang is not destroyed, can the business of our Baohetang be as hot as it is today? Can the people of the entire Qiantang County come to our store Do you buy medicine? As the shopkeeper of Baohetang, if the business of the pharmacy is not good, can your monthly money be more than ten times that of before? Without this money, can you afford Bailing and Sumei? Going out , can you be respected by others like you are now?"

Zhao Chenping's series of questioning made Xu Xian ask in a daze.

"cannot!"

Zhao Chenping looked at Xu Xian's confused eyes, and his voice was low.

"Hanwen, if you want to stand out, enjoy a beautiful wife and concubine, and be rich for a lifetime, you must be ruthless. We are in the medicinal material business, and we want to become bigger and stronger. We must not be kind to our competitors. You just have to remember, The medicines we sell in Baohetang will always be genuine medicines, and if we have a clear conscience with the people, that is already a great kindness."

Xu Xian remained silent, silently drank two more glasses of wine, and passed out.

Zhao Chenping smiled slightly, beckoned Bai Ling and Su Mei to help him back into the house, then turned and left.

The next day, when Zhao Chenping saw Xu Xian again, he found that the smile had returned to his face, and he was more calm and composed when doing things. As for the matter of Qingyutang, he chose to turn a blind eye.

. . .

Time passed slowly, months passed in the blink of an eye, and the new year is here.The people of Qiantang County did not experience any fluctuations due to Baohetang's dominance of the medicinal material market, and this New Year was still peaceful and joyful.

After the new year, in more than a month, Xu Xian was going to get married, so Zhao Chenping specially gave him a vacation and asked him to prepare well at home.

However, just as February was about to enter, a strange incident suddenly occurred in Qiantang County.

The silver in the county government treasury was stolen for no reason.

When Zhao Chenping heard the news, he was a little dazed.

Isn't this what Green Snake does when he appears?

Why, the plot is about to begin! ?
