Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

"How is that possible! I wish it could be that luxurious." He Le shouted.

He actually knew that this behavior was extravagant! Gu Yue had a changed opinion of him.

The old butler on the side said: "Master Le is very happy that you are here."

"What do you mean?" Gu Yue asked.

Hele added: "Normally my mother wouldn't allow me to eat so much or so fancy. Since you guys are here as guests, I'm using this as an excuse to... finally have something good to eat."

Hele smiled shyly.

Gu Yue was a little confused. Why was this happening?

According to Bei Qin's standards, He Le is fat, but he is far from needing to diet. In this era, people don't care about men's weight, so you can't forbid him to eat more just for the sake of his figure, right?

"Why is that? Your house is so wealthy with carved beams and painted buildings, why do you limit yourself to food?" Gu Yue asked.

"My mother thinks I am extravagant and wasteful, so she only allows me to have two dishes and one soup." He Le touched her belly, "She always says that people all over the world have simple meals, and the money in my hand is not earned by my own labor, so I can only take the basic needs."

"...It seems that you have no other hobbies except eating." Gu Yue said.

"That's right." He Le nodded repeatedly.

Soon, all the dishes were served, five dishes plus a plate of braised food and a bowl of some black sauce.

"This is the marinade." He let Gu Xushisan eat first, and He Le introduced the bowl of food to Gu Yue, "In addition to the recipe, my friend also gave me a pot of marinade. It is said that it is fifty years old."

Gu Yue suddenly remembered the famous Red Sky horror story.

There is a century-old braised goose shop somewhere in Hongkong. The protagonist is the daughter of the owner of this old shop. When she was a child, her father treated them badly and had a mistress outside. However, one day her father went out and never came back. Since then, the braised goose business of the family has suddenly become popular.

In fact, after my mother killed my father, she put the body into the brine jar.

Gu Yue shook off his strange thoughts, took the marinade and smelled it.

The smell is very strong, but you can smell the fragrance. It seems that some Chinese medicine has been added, and it has a very light bitter taste.

Gu Yue tasted the braised food again, which was mainly some kind of meat and some dried tofu.

The taste...is indeed good, but to be honest, Gu Yue is not very interested in this kind of food, so he can only judge that the taste is okay.

"What do you think, Boss Gu?" He Le's eyes sparkled.

"Not bad, what price do you want?" Gu Yue talked business with him directly.

"It's awkward to talk about money." He Le smiled and waved his hand.

"...You can't just give it to me for free, right?" Gu Yue smiled. If this person really wanted to give it to me for free, then he would have to doubt He Le's intentions.

They are not old friends. If someone shows too much kindness for no reason, he is either a villain or a thief.

The anti-fraud APP reminds you not to believe in pie in the sky.

"Of course not." Hele said, "I'm not going to sell you the entire recipe, but I will give you the marinade. From now on, I want 10% of the profit from the marinated food you sell."

Oh, agents.

Gu Yue was in deep thought.

He Le continued, "I will give you another 1,000 taels of silver as capital, which you can use to buy the ingredients for the stewed food."

Gu Yue was shocked!

One thousand taels!

He was not dazzled by the huge wealth that fell from the sky: "Aren't you afraid that I will take the money and run away? Aren't you afraid of losing money? Aren't you afraid that the money will be wasted?"

They had only been selling fried chicken for five days, and after spending such a short time with Hele, this guy decided to invest? Isn't that too hasty?

Gu Yue waited to see what convincing reasons He Le could come up with.

"No reason." He Le smiled, "My intuition is always accurate. I think you can manage this pot of marinade well."

This line sounds so familiar, a typical line uttered by a supporting NPC after being influenced by the protagonist's halo.

He glanced at Gu Xu. Is this kid’s aura so great?

But it’s not Gu Xu who runs this store. The actual boss is just a background cannon fodder!

"...Since you said so, I won't ask so many reasons." Gu Yue said that he really didn't want to give up the 1,000 taels of silver. He still had a lot of things that needed money to complete. "But, Master Hele, if you lose the 1,000 taels of silver, I will not give you any compensation. This point must also be clearly stated in the contract."

"Of course, I know the rules." He Le said.

"Okay! That's settled then. But opening a stall is just a side job, don't expect to make a fortune all at once." Gu Yue smiled.

He Le picked up the teacup and made a toast gesture: "Boss Gu, don't think too much! I just want to make friends with you because I think you and I get along well."

Gu Yue responded, and the two of them drank tea like they were drinking wine.

……

"Get the medicine according to this prescription, boil it into a thick juice and feed it to him. It will probably take only three doses of medicine and the patient will wake up." Wu Ye picked up the rice paper he had just written and handed it to the servant who was guarding on the side.

"How is he now?" Qin Zhaoyue asked.

After Wu Ye checked on Lu Tianyun's condition that day, he first asked the servant who was taking care of him to heal the wounds on Lu Tianyun's body, and then gave him acupuncture.

The acupuncture was continued for about three days, with medication stopped in between. After Lu Tianyun finally showed some response and his fingers could move involuntarily, Wu Ye wrote the prescription and dispensed the medicine.

"A few days ago, there was not a single good spot on his body. I couldn't even put acupuncture there." Wu Ye complained, "Now he's better. If I give him more medicine, he should be able to swallow it on his own. This man has a solid foundation and won't die easily."

Qin Zhaoyue was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Wu Ye raising a finger.

"But, Your Highness, I suggest you be mentally prepared," Wu Ye said.

"What psychological preparation?" Qin Zhaoyue frowned.

"This man must have been seriously injured. Judging from his pulse, he has lost too much blood." Wu Ye said, "Plus, he has a wound on his neck. Blood loss in this area... can easily damage the brain."

"...Please explain it clearly." Qin Zhaoyue grabbed Wu Ye's shoulders.

"There's a high possibility that he will be unconscious after waking up, and may lose his memory," Wu Ye said.

Qin Zhaoyue was silent for a moment.

"That's fine." Qin Zhaoyue said, "You should do your best to treat him, no matter what he looks like when he wakes up."

"Of course." Wu Ye held Qin Zhaoyue's wrist and slowly made him loosen his fingers.

"Jingcun." Qin Zhaoyue let go of him, turned and walked to the door.

"Here." Jingcun appeared.

"Any progress?" Qin Zhaoyue asked.

"There is a group of people secretly watching Gu Dashi." Jingcun paused, "He... opened a shop selling fried chicken."

"What is that?" Qin Zhaoyue was confused.

"It's a kind of food. It's said that the outer shell is crispy and the chicken inside is tender. It's very delicious." Jingcun said, "The brothers who were stalking like it very much."

Since the letter sent back specifically said that the fried chicken was delicious, it must have been especially delicious.

"How come I didn't know he had that ability?" Qin Zhaoyue rubbed his fingers, "What's going on in the capital?"

"Tang Wuling was placed under house arrest for reflection. Wen Qing returned to the Third Prince's residence. The Third Prince has not made any statement yet, nor has he entered the palace. The Emperor has not taken any action against him." Jing Cun replied.

"He didn't contact anyone?"

"On the surface, not." Jingcun said.
