The backyard of the county government office.
Shen Luoqiao, the current county magistrate of Gaochuan County, was sitting under the shade of a tree drinking tea with a middle-aged man in elegant clothes.
An officer came in and walked up to the two men.
"Master Liu, Magistrate Shen," the official said with a bow, "the dozen or so women have been sold out."
"Well," the middle-aged man called Master Liu nodded slightly and asked, "What about Si Chenan?"
"As Master expected, no one wants it. But..."
"But what?"
"It's like this," the officer said, "Just now, Si Chenan had died. Fortunately, someone intervened in time and managed to save him."
"Impossible!" Master Liu said, "Si Chenan is not that weak."
"Master, this is true. We brothers all saw it with our own eyes just now." said the officer.
"You said he died and was saved by someone. Who was the person who saved him?" Master Liu said, looking at County Magistrate Shen. "Is there a famous doctor in Gaochuan County?"
"She's not a famous doctor, but just a country girl who pinched him a few times and brought him back to life. She also wants to buy Si Chen'an back to get married, so as to avoid the marriage arranged by her family." The official lowered his voice and suggested, "Master, if Si Chen dies before we can take action, it will be difficult for us brothers to report back after we return."
Master Liu did not comment and asked Magistrate Shen who was standing beside him: "Magistrate Shen, what do you think?"
"This county believes that we will have to take action sooner or later," said County Magistrate Shen. "If he really dies in our hands, it will be difficult to explain. The county government will have to pay for the funeral."
Master Liu thought for a moment, and finally asked the official: "Did you ask the country girl who wanted to buy him what her name was? Where did she live?"
"He said he was from Liuyun Village, and his name was Jiang Sining."
"Then Magistrate Shen, please send someone to investigate." Master Liu said, "If it is appropriate, it is not impossible to take action a few days earlier."
"That's easy. We'll have to check it out thoroughly before tonight."
……
Walking on the street, Jiang Sining was thinking about how to get a large sum of money within a day or two?
There are many things in the space that can be converted into cash.
For example, she had a jade bracelet that she bought on a whim when she was in college. After buying it, she put it in a drawer, gathering dust, and rarely wore it.
There are also makeup mirrors, glass bottles, and glass cups, which are definitely high-value items in this world.
But to whom?
It was not safe to sell to the local tycoons, so Jiang Sining finally decided to try looking for those merchants from other places.
She had seen before that in addition to restaurants and inns, there were also many tea shops in the east city of Gaochuanji. Many tea merchants from the south of the Yangtze River liked to drink tea and discuss business in these tea shops.
So she went to a clothing store and bought a set of men's blue shirt, a pair of cloth shoes and a cloth bag. She tied her hair behind her head, took out cosmetics from the space and put on some simple makeup. She transformed herself into a handsome young man and walked into the teahouse with the most people.
The waiter saw the guests coming and immediately came forward to greet them enthusiastically: "How many guests are there?"
"One."
"Is it the lobby or the private room?"
"hall."
"Okay, one seat in the lobby on the second floor!"
The design of this teahouse is quite interesting. There are no walls on the second floor, only railings, so you can have a clear view of the surrounding scenery.
Jiang Sining ordered a pot of tea and a plate of cakes, and while drinking by himself, he paid attention to the actions of the people around him.
Most of the people who come here to drink tea are businessmen from Beijing and Jiangnan. They talk about what they have seen along the way. Those who really want to talk business will probably choose the quiet private rooms.
Just as she was thinking about how to "inadvertently" display the treasure she was going to sell, she suddenly heard the waiter's hurried voice coming from upstairs.
"Boss, a guest on the third floor has suffered from heat stroke. Go call a doctor."
It is midsummer now and heatstroke is common. The teahouse owner asked someone to call a doctor while he asked two waiters to carry the guest who had heatstroke to the second floor and put together a few long benches for him to lie down.
"Quick, quick, get some clean water and start scraping his sha."
Jiang Sining looked from afar and saw that the guest who had suffered from heatstroke was extremely fat, with his eyes closed and a pale face. He was already in a daze, and sweat from his head kept dripping down his cheeks.
According to her experience, there was no need to call a doctor or use Cuosha. He could get better quickly by using a method his grandfather taught her.
So she stepped forward and said to the teahouse owner, "Boss, there's no need to call a doctor for such a small matter."
The shopkeeper saw that she was not wearing silk or satin, but new clothes from head to toe, and spoke Mandarin, so he did not dare to look down on her. He bowed and said, "Sir, what tricks do you have?"
"Get someone to help him sit up, and get a big bucket."
The shopkeeper thought about it, and probably felt that it was indeed troublesome to call a doctor, so he asked the waiter to help the fat man who had suffered from heatstroke to sit up. This guy had too much fat, and after Jiang Sining found the acupuncture points on his back, he pressed them hard with great force.
Her actions completely attracted the attention of everyone on the second floor, and they all stopped talking and looked over.
After pressing for about two or three minutes, the fat man let out a groan, as if he had woken up.
"A barrel."
The waiter at the side immediately brought the wooden barrel. Jiang Sining pressed the fat man's head and he started vomiting non-stop.
After vomiting out everything in his stomach, the fat man drank some water and rinsed his mouth, and he suddenly felt more energetic.
Everyone present was amazed to see that she cured the patient so quickly.
When the fat man learned that it was Jiang Sining who helped, he spoke with a Jiangnan accent and said gratefully: "Thanks to the young master for helping me, otherwise I don't know how much suffering I would have suffered today."
"How do you feel now?"
"I feel better!" The fat man said happily, "Just now I felt like something was blocking my heart. After vomiting it out, I feel so refreshed."
"It's good that you feel comfortable, but it's not safe enough." Jiang Sining said, "It just so happens that I brought some heat-relief medicine with me. I can pour some for you."
"Thank you for your help, young master," said the fat man, "I will definitely reward you handsomely later."
"It's just a small favor, no need to thank me. Shopkeeper, can I borrow the private room for a while?"
"Please follow me, young master."
When they arrived at the private room, Jiang Sining closed the door.
My grandfather liked to drink a little wine when he was alive, so we had some small drinking glasses at home, which could hold two taels of wine.
Jiang Sining took one out, poured half a cup of Coke into it, and then put some ice chips from the freezer into the cup.
A cup of elixir to relieve heat and quench thirst is ready.
She returned to the hall with the cup in her hand, and everyone looked at the cup in her hand. They saw that it was dark inside, and it really looked like a boiled medicinal soup.
The fat man took the small cup with both hands, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Why is this so cold?"
Jiang Sining smiled without saying anything, playing the role of being mysterious and profound.
The fat man knew that he was asking something he shouldn't have asked, so he stopped asking and brought the cup to his lips and smelled it.
This smell was another surprise.
I originally thought that the medicine soup would be very bitter and have a strong smell, but the medicine soup in my hand not only did not have that unpleasant smell, but instead had a faint sweetness.
Is this... really medicine?
But he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he drank the medicine in one gulp.
It's sweet, refreshing and icy, but it feels a little bit pungent when you drink it.
After drinking it, he burped again and felt better.
"Young Master, your medicinal soup is really delicious. Do you have any more?" The fat man said, "I still feel a little uneasy. I am willing to pay for more."
Jiang Sining: ...
Everyone:...
You're just drinking a medicinal soup and you can get addicted to it, right?
"It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but this medicine is not easy to make, and I don't have much left."
"That was my abruptness."
As the fat man was about to return the cup to Jiang Sining, his hand suddenly stopped in mid-air when he stretched it out halfway. His eyes seemed to be attracted by a strong magnet, staring at the cup in his hand and couldn't move away.
Others also saw the crystal clear glass at this time. Those who knew the value of the glass were so nervous that they almost stopped breathing.
"This...this..." The fat man's hands were shaking slightly, his breathing was rapid, and he could hardly speak clearly, "Young...Young Master, this cup..."
Jiang Sining smiled and said, "Mine."
