Ugly vase becomes beautiful

Dajiang is still in winter, but the sun came out today.

The earth pharmacy was built in peace.

Seeing the brand-new pharmacy, Pei Shen and Bai Xingtian smiled at each other. On the first day of opening, the two were full of energy, and there was no one in the store.

After sitting for a long time, there was still no one there. Occasionally, some people wandered here and saw this newly built pharmacy, but they did not come in.

Bai Xingtian sighed: "Now everyone goes to the number one pharmacy in the world to buy medicines. Many pharmacies in Dajiang City can't keep open, not to mention our location is so remote."

Pei Shen lowered his head and pondered: "The number one pharmacy in the world is indeed famous. Mr. Bai, where is the famous music workshop in Dajiang City?"

Bai Xingtian was full of doubts: "Qingqufang."

The warm winter sun slanted in from the window. In Qingqufang, Pei Shen called some of the most beautiful girls and sat at the table to watch carefully.

Bai Xingtian sat on the side, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles.

Bai Xingtian is old, but he is an honest and honest person, and he has never been to this kind of place. Looking at the girls playing the piano in front of him, he always feels that he has committed some heinous crime.

Then, he saw Pei Shen pick out a few girls: "How many of them, how much is the package for a day?"

Bai Xingtian almost spit out the tea.

The owner of Qufang is a woman, commonly known as Li Niang, she choked: "Ahem... Young Master, do you want all of them?"

Pei Shen: "Yes."

Li Niang glanced at Pei Shen slightly in shock. This young man looks so young, but he is so generous... But few people are so generous. Li Niang thought for a while and said the number: "For half a day, 500 taels."

Pei Shen said, "I'll make a deal with you."

After finishing speaking, he asked Li Niang to bring the paper and ink: "I will make a written receipt and pay 20 taels as a deposit first. After tomorrow, add the original 500 taels, how about I give you another 200 taels?"

Li Niang was a little moved, it was a total of 200 taels, but she thought about it again, and said: "No, the girls here have to pay all of them, what if you run away?"

Pei Shen: "How about adding another guarantor?"

Li Niang was displeased: "Who will guarantee you?"

Pei Shen bit his pen, and wrote three words on the paper—Jiang Wuyin.

Li Niang paused, Ning, King Ning?

Is it the King Ning she thought of?

……

Jiang Wuyin was drinking medicine in the house, Lin Diao hurried in: "My lord!"

Jiang Wuyin: "What's the matter?"

Lin Diao was a little out of breath: "Mr. Pei went to Qingqufang and bought several girls..."

Jiang Wuyin paused, isn't Pei Shen building a medicine store, why did he suddenly go to Qingqufang?

There are all the places where young masters love to go, nothing more than listening to music, or...

Jiang Wuyin didn't even notice that the spoon in his hand sank into the bowl: "How many?"

Lin Diao counted on his fingers: "Five... No, six, it's a lot anyway."

Jiang Wuyin: "Isn't he short of money? Where did he get so much money?"

Lin Diao's complexion became more and more ugly, and he replied: "Mr. Pei...he wrote an IOU and guaranteed it in your name."

After watching for a long time, Lin Diao reminded: "My lord, your lord, your spoon sank into the bowl."

……

When leaving Qingqufang, Pei Shen was followed by several girls, Bai Xingtian approached him and said: "There are so many girls, you... pay attention to your body."

Pei Shen said: "Who said I want to buy them to serve?"

Back at the pharmacy, Pei Shen took out a thick stack of paper, which confused Bai Xingtian, and the rest of the girls were even more puzzled: "My lord, why don't you ask us to serve you here?"

This fetish is a little...unique.

Pei Shen only said, "Just do as I tell you."

……

A few young masters jokingly passed by the alley, and suddenly heard a beautiful song coming from the alley, and looked at each other: "This...isn't this the song from Qingqufang?"

"How could it sound here?"

The young masters walked into the alley strangely, and suddenly found that a new shop had opened in the alley at some time, and the girls from Qingqufang were sitting in front of the shop playing the piano, and there were four large characters written on the front - Happy opening.

A young man in Tsing Yi stood at the door, holding a stack of papers in his hand: "Earth Pharmacy is newly opened, and there are many discounts..."

The young master looked at each other in dismay. He had never seen any shop do this before. The young master in Tsing Yi handed them the paper. The young master took it in doubt and looked down: "The earth medicine store is newly opened..."

"What is it, the earth drugstore?" The young master looked up, "is it the name of this drugstore?"

Immediately afterwards, Mr. Tsing Yi explained: "That's right, the earth medicine store is a new medicine store opened by Mr. Pei and Mr. Bai. It just opened today. This is the opening activity of this medicine store."

"Opening event?"

"Are you that...Pei Shen?" A young master immediately recognized him.

"It's him. I heard that he is very good at curing diseases, and even cured Miss Chen." A young master murmured.

"What opening event?"

One after another, many people walked into the alley following the sound of the music, and someone next to the son took the paper and read it: "Earth Medicine Store is newly opened, and you can enjoy the beautiful music of Qingqufang for free when you come to the store, and you can also order songs at will. , so that customers can enjoy the beauty of shopping..."

"So good, can I listen to the music for free?"

Just for the matter of listening to the music for free, many people stepped into the shop one after another, and bought medicinal materials while listening to the music. Some people even said: "Give me a surprise song."

"Give me a song of eternal regret."

Pei Shen said: "Take your time, everyone first line up to register."

Bai Xingtian smiled and said: "Buying things and listening to music, what is this called?"

Pei Shen whispered back: "It's called shopping bgm, it can relax customers."

The people listened to the music and leisurely queued up in front to register, when they suddenly caught a glimpse of the medicinal materials in the cabinet: "The quality of these medicinal materials looks really good..."

Pei Shen smiled and said: "The guest officer is right, take a closer look at the paper in your hand, there are more surprises behind."

The man took out a piece of paper and looked down: "Buy over fifty cash and get a free medicinal herb..."

Another person said in surprise: "Really, send medicinal materials?"

"You said that if you buy over [-] Wen, you will get a free medicinal material, but is it true?" Someone asked, "The free medicinal material will not be bad, right?"

Pei Shen had already prepared, Bai Xingtian took out the medicinal materials from a clean box, and let the common people circulate them one by one, Pei Shen said: "These are the medicinal materials sent by our shop."

The common people circulated it one by one, and someone who knew the medicinal material said, "This medicinal material...is pretty good."

"This herbal medicine is no worse than the one from the number one pharmacy in the world!"

Pei Shen replied: "Not only that, why don't you take a look at the paper in your hand?"

The first son looked at the paper in his hand, there was a strange mark on it: "This is..."

Pei Shen said: "Customers who come to the store with this paper can enjoy a free diagnosis and treatment by Dr. Pei himself. This imprint is an anti-counterfeiting mark and cannot be copied, so it is impossible to forge it. Everyone must hold the paper sent from the girls. You can enjoy free medical treatment."

After the words fell, everyone in the store exploded: "Really, is there such a good thing?"

Pei Shen: "It's absolutely true."

Someone asked: "What is this paper called, why have I never seen it before?"

Pei Shen pondered: "This is called a leaflet."

All of a sudden, the people flocked to: "Give me one! Give me one!"

Jiang Wuyin, who just had someone drive the carriage here: "What's going on in front?"

The coachman replied: "My lord, it seems to be Mr. Pei, what kind of paper is he distributing, saying that he went to their pharmacy to buy medicine..."

Jiang Wuyin looked over there, and found that those girls were playing the piano at the door, and Pei Shen was in the shop, it seemed that he hadn't had much contact with them.

Jiang Wuyin quickly understood Pei Shen's intentions.

Pei Shen is very smart.

Seeing that Pei Shen didn't get in touch with the girls, he was inexplicably relieved.

……

In the capital city of Dajiang, the long queues lined up directly to the gate of the city, everyone held a blank sheet of paper in their hands, and the streets were noisy.

"What's the big deal?"

"I heard that famous doctor Pei has opened a medicine shop!"

"This famous doctor Pei is so famous, and there are so many people opening a pharmacy?"

"That pharmacy is not an ordinary pharmacy, I heard that there is a song to listen to when you go to buy medicine!" The speaker shook the white paper in his hand, "And as long as you rely on this leaflet, you can let famous doctor Pei see a doctor for free! "

"What! Is there such a good thing? Is it true?"

"It's true, I just came out of the doctor, and the famous doctor Pei was right, and even prescribed medicine for me!" said someone who came out of the doctor.

Someone on the street pulled his wife over: "My lady, let's go and get the leaflets!"

Someone even pulled his daughter: "Girl, didn't you have been suffering from that disease a few days ago? Go, get the leaflets!"

Even the housekeeper who came out to do the shopping didn't take time off, took a leaflet and ran back to the mansion: "Master, master, I got a leaflet for you, you can go to Dr. Pei for free medical treatment!"

……

Pei Shen has been busy for a few days, and the rumors in the capital are getting more and more outrageous.

There is this saying:

"Doctor Pei is amazing...!"

"Those diseases, he cured people with just one look...!"

Pei Shen: When I went to see a doctor that day, because some diseases appeared frequently in modern times, he knew what the disease was after seeing it, so he could prescribe medicine for them.

Of course, Oe's disease has not yet become popular.

Sometimes even Pei Shen himself has some doubts, he is actually a Chinese medicine doctor.

It is also said:

"Doctor Pei sometimes doesn't check the pulse when he sees a doctor. He sticks a long thing on my chest, and he knows what's wrong with me!"

"...." Pei Shen yawned.

That's the stethoscope he made.

The capital city is very busy these days, and the business of the earth medicine store is very good. Pei Shen and Bai Xingtian will soon earn back the money they rented the store in a few days.

Some came to see a doctor, but they were attracted by the high-quality medicinal materials in the shop and bought some back.

There are also those who want to buy medicine to go back to boil after seeing a doctor, so they buy the medicinal materials directly in our store.

All in all, very profitable.

Sometimes the shop is too busy and there are not enough people, Jiang Wuyin will call some people to help.

Speaking of Jiang Wuyin, fortunately Pei Shen made money quickly and quickly made back the money owed that day, otherwise it would be hard to imagine the scene of Li Niang going to the house to ask for money.

In fact, Pei Shen also thought about it in private, Jiang Wuyin was blocked by Li Niang asking for money, people who didn't know thought that Jiang Wuyin bought another girl and didn't give money.

However, after earning money, Pei Shen immediately renewed the contract. Li Niang readily continued to lend the girl to him, and said that she didn't want any money. The reason was that Pei Shen's pharmacy was so good that everyone in Dajiang City had to come and see it. look.

Bai Xingtian's sound of reckoning brought Pei Shen back to his thoughts, and he said in surprise: "Pei Pei, we can buy this shop back in a few days, what do you think? You think, we have been renting the shop for a long time, so why don't we buy it?" It's a good deal."

During these days, the two of them were fighting side by side. Once Bai Xingtian was in a hurry and spoke too fast, so he uttered "Pei Pei".

At that time, both of them were stunned for a while, and then they both laughed.

From then on, Bai Xingtian called Pei Shen "Pei Pei".

Pei Shen thought about it, and thought it made sense. Although the shop was a bit old, the people of Dajiang had only become familiar with the location. It would not only be a waste of time, but also a pity to move it again.

"I think it's okay." Pei Shen nodded, and picked up the brand new small bag on the table, "Mr. Bai, let's go get the medicinal materials first?"

This is because Pei Shen is in a good mood these days. When he was shopping in the downtown area a few days ago, he bought himself a beautiful small bag, which was specially used to hold his diagnostic equipment every day.

His stethoscope is very simple. It is made of wood taken from the Dajiang treasure house last time, and it is simply modeled on the stethoscope of the Qing Dynasty.

For doctors, these things are very precious.

But having said that, the business in the store is too hot these days, and the medicinal materials are not enough, so they need to be replenished in advance.

The two walked together to the place where the medicinal materials were stored, and along the way, Bai Xingtian advised Pei Shen to go back earlier: "I'll do the matter of supplementing the medicinal materials, you go back first."

Pei Shen shook his head: "You can't hold so many herbs."

Bai Xingtian had no choice but to take Pei Shen there. The place where the medicinal materials were stored was on the mountain. Because Bai Xingtian collected herbs on the mountain, he built a special room to store the medicinal materials.

The house is surprisingly clean, and the medicinal materials are well preserved. It can be seen that it is tidied up every day.

Bai Xingtian said: "Pei Pei, you wait here first, I'll go find candles."

Pei Shen stood there waiting for Bai Xingtian. He was bored waiting, so he simply took a look around the room first, when suddenly there was a heavy door closing sound behind him.

Pei Shen: "Mr. Bai?"

There was no response from behind, so Pei Shen tried to open the door, only to find that it was locked.

His scalp felt numb all of a sudden, knowing that he was being plotted against, but who was this plotting against him?

He couldn't allow him to think for a moment, this room has no windows, Pei Shen tried to find a way to get out, when suddenly pairs of red eyes stared at him in the darkness.

Three or two mice in the corner were staring at him, Pei Shen was afraid of the mice and couldn't move.

The night was pitch black, the whole room was airtight, and he couldn't see his fingers. Apart from those eyes, Pei Shen couldn't see anything.

Fear suddenly swept over Pei Shen's body, and an unprecedented sense of suffocation rushed over his face.

There is no light in the house, and this house is located on a mountain, and no one will come. The helplessness seems to be clamping his legs, making it impossible for him to take a step.

There were no windows, the door was locked, and there was nothing in the room by which he could get out.

Pei Shen leaned against the wall panting, sweat dripped down his forehead, the past buried in the memory was revealed.

He remembered a long time ago, when he was about seven years old, his parents divorced.

In Pei Shen's impression, his mother has always been a gentle person, she would cook delicious breakfast for him, tell interesting stories to him, and take him to play every weekend.

After the divorce, Pei Shen was sentenced to his mother. Before leaving home, Pei Shen folded his little quilt and tried not to make himself sad. He thought that he would be more obedient in the future and not make his mother sad.

His mother took him to a new place, and their life was not satisfactory, and his mother became irritable, sometimes even violent to Pei Shen.

Pei Shen told himself at that time that her mother was just sick, and she would get better one day.

But later, his mother locked him in the basement.

The basement is dark and airtight, and there are rats running around. He no longer goes to school, but lives in the darkness forever.

In this dark space, Pei Shen never knew what would happen tomorrow.

He was afraid of it, afraid of everything there.

The memory started to be confused, Pei Shen curled up by the wall, his father brought the police to take him away in his mind for a while, and his mother beat him with a whip for a while, he bit his lips tightly, unable to distinguish reality from memories.

He suddenly wanted to disappear from this world.

It's too dark here, too similar to that place, he thought he would forget all of that, but now he realizes it.

It was something he would never forget in his life.

Pei Shen's consciousness was in a state of confusion, and he could hear the chirping rats next to his ears. He suddenly remembered that the lamp would encounter a rat that day, and Jiang Wuyin held him in his arms to protect him.

When he was about to close his eyes, there was a bang sound from nowhere, as if someone hugged him.

……

Pei Shen opened his eyes again, and the ink painting hanging on the wall jumped into his eyes.

This is not the dark room, but Jiang Wuyin's room.

Ah Xiang looked at him worriedly: "Ah Shen, you frightened us, you slept for several days..."

Axiang told him that Bai Xingtian came to Prince Ning's mansion with injuries that night and asked them to rescue Pei Shen.

Jiang Wuyin didn't say anything after hearing this, she just asked Ah Xiang to wait at the gate of the mansion, and then went out.

Ah Xiang didn't know exactly what happened afterwards, but she only knew that she waited so anxiously that she didn't see Jiang Wuyin's figure, turned around to call someone, but her gaze suddenly froze around the corner.

Jiang Wuyin came back with Pei Shen in her arms.

The hanging lamp was crumbling that night, Jiang Wuyin didn't say anything.

Pei Shen sat up, just in time to see Jiang Wuyin at the door, and their eyes collided.

Ah Xiang retreated knowingly, Jiang Wuyin asked him: "Is it better?"

Pei Shen nodded: "Thank you this time."

After a while, Pei Shen asked again: "Are you injured?"

Jiang Wuyin shook his head: "No."

Pei Shen: "What about Mr. Bai, is he alright?"

"He's okay, he's coming over to see you." Jiang Wuyin looked at him for a long time, and only replied like this for a long time.

Before coming here, Jiang Wuyin wanted to say a lot to Pei Shen, but after seeing the person, she couldn't say a word.

Pei Shen murmured, "How did they know that I'm afraid of those things?"

Jiang Wuyin: "If you ask someone to observe you carefully, a smart person will naturally see that you don't like to walk alone at night, and you will buy a lamp when you come back. You deliberately avoid dark places. When you stay in a dark place, you will Dizzy and scared of mice."

Pei Shen was startled, then smiled and said, "Jiang Wuyin, how do you know so clearly?"

Jiang Wuyin was speechless for a moment.

Pei Shen suddenly took his hand: "Are you injured?"

Jiang Wuyin had fine wounds on his hands, and Pei Shen had sharp eyes.

Jiang Wuyin: "Accidentally cut it."

Before Bai Xingtian entered the door, he saw Pei Shen sitting on the bed bandaging Jiang Wuyin's wound, chattering about it while bandaging it.

Bai Xingtian's gaze turned to Jiang Wuyin, Jiang Wuyin let Pei Shen bandage his fingers, looking at Pei Shen a little abnormally.

It's like looking at your own wife.

For some reason, Bai Xingtian's heart couldn't take it anymore, seeing that Pei Shen was fine, he handed the tonic he brought to Ah Xiang and left.

Night fell quickly in the mansion, and at the end of the day, Pei Shen didn't even get out of bed, Ah Xiang didn't allow Pei Shen to do anything, let Pei Shen rest well, and cooked him some dishes.

When picking up the soup, Pei Shen smelled the flavor in it: "Where did this medicinal material come from?"

Ah Xiang: "Mr. Bai gave it to you, drink more of this soup."

Pei Shen smiled and said, "Okay, okay."

The two of you said something to each other, and the maids at the door came in one after another with lamps, and some even held big candles.

Ashanti:"?"

The maid explained: "This is the order of the prince. He said that he should hang up lamps and light candles for Mr. Pei when it gets dark."

Pei Shen thought it was a little funny, but at the same time it was a little warm in his heart.

The author has something to say:
