Transmigrated into a short-lived widow? Cold-faced uncle fights for my life
Chapter 45: The Clinic Starts Murder
Jiang Mingwei shouted loudly, her face full of anger, and her condescending and imposing attitude made the shopkeeper tremble with fear.
He was used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong, so now that he met a tough guy, he naturally became cowardly in an instant.
He shrank his body, frowned, and looked at Jiang Mingwei carefully over and over again.
Suddenly, his pupils constricted and an expression of horror and disbelief appeared on his face.
"You...are you the eldest lady?"
"If she's not a young lady, then who is?" Hua Cui's face was icy as she scolded in a low voice, "This is a good clinic with no one visiting, but you're sleeping in the broad daylight? How audacious!"
The shopkeeper's heart was pounding. Now that he had confirmed Jiang Mingwei's identity, he was trembling with fear and quickly begged for mercy with a sad face. Where was the toughness he had just now?
"Oh, it's unfair, it's really unfair!"
He stood up and hurriedly put on his boots and shoes, explaining with an anxious face: "Miss, I am really wronged. I didn't recognize you and didn't know you were coming. But the business of this clinic has always been bad, and this is not something I can control!"
Glancing at him without saying anything, Jiang Mingwei continued to open the box where the medicinal herbs were stored.
The shopkeeper was so scared that he wanted to stop her, but Jiang Mingwei was very fast. She opened the door, took a look, and then closed it. Her fair face became more and more gloomy, like a precursor to a storm...
"How many days have you not opened it to look at the medicinal herbs inside?"
The shopkeeper lowered his head guiltily, his eyes rolling around, cold sweat on his forehead, and he didn't dare to respond.
"This……"
boom!
With a loud bang, Jiang Mingwei pulled out one of the drawers and threw it heavily on the ground.
Hua Cui and the shopkeeper were so frightened that they were stunned and hurriedly took a step back.
But when she looked closely at the herbs scattered on the ground, Hua Cui exclaimed, "Oh my God, Miss, why are these herbs all moldy? They can't be used anymore. If they are used on people, I'm afraid they will die!"
"Yes, people come to the clinic to see a doctor and take medicine to get well. If they take the moldy herbs home to cook, it will not only fail to cure the disease, but will make the body weaker."
"This Renyifang is a place that treats illnesses and saves lives, but it turned out to be a place that kills people without my knowledge!"
Jiang Mingwei waved her long sleeves, filled with anger, staring at the shopkeeper intently, almost wanting to dig a hole in him!
It's fine if the shopkeeper is lazy.
But I didn't expect that he would dare to sell moldy medicinal materials. What is the difference between this and murder for money?
This would not only damage the reputation of Renyifang, if someone really died after taking the moldy medicinal materials, not to mention the shopkeeper, I'm afraid even she would be sent to jail!
"Manager Song, you have lived a long time, so you want to spend some time in prison with me and then be beheaded in public, right?"
"Miss, calm down, Miss, calm down. I...I didn't sell moldy herbs on purpose, nor do I not want to replace them. It's just that there is really no need!"
After all, Jiang Mingwei also studied medicine, and was extremely sensitive to the issue of curing diseases and saving lives. She understood that doctors must have their own pursuits and ethics, so she was very annoyed.
He exuded a fierce aura from head to toe, which frightened Shopkeeper Song so much that he didn't even dare to breathe.
He knelt down hurriedly, his face full of fear.
His words made Jiang Mingwei frown and asked coldly, "What do you mean?"
Shopkeeper Song looked bitter and sighed.
"To be honest, this matter is still your mother-in-law's fault. She angered Doctor Zhang and left. She even threatened that she would never cooperate with Renyifang again in the future. After this, Renyifang's business has been ruined!"
Until now, Shopkeeper Song would occasionally recall the scene of the bustling Renyifang. It's a pity that things and people have changed, and it has become like this in just a few years.
It really makes people sigh and sigh!
"Because of the presence of Imperial Doctor Zhang, the price of medicines in Renyifang is not cheap in Beijing. Miss, you can see from the decoration of this store that ordinary people will not come here to see a doctor. At most, they will ask Imperial Doctor Zhang to feel their pulse and find out their condition, and then take the prescription to those small pharmacies to get medicine."
"We earn money from the nobles in Bianjing. After Doctor Zhang left, who would come here to buy medicine? Ordinary people can't afford it, and the nobles don't like it, so it's naturally unsalable. When the plum rain season comes, the medicinal materials will get moldy. But don't worry, young lady, these medicinal materials have not been sold for a long time!"
At this moment, Shopkeeper Song told us everything he knew.
Jiang Mingwei's brows were tightly knitted together, and her eyes remained cold.
This Zhou is really causing a lot of harm to people!
She used the excuse that the original owner was young and didn't know how to manage the property, but she destroyed little by little everything the Jiang family had prepared for the original owner.
It would be fine if there was only one shop, but there are so many of them one after another!
Jiang Mingwei was so angry that her chest ached. She wished she could go home immediately, grab the old witch by the collar, and slap her hard.
"Where's the account book? Bring it to me."
Jiang Mingwei extended her hand to Shopkeeper Song, who nodded quickly and hurriedly took out the account book and handed it to Jiang Mingwei.
Jiang Mingwei opened the book and took a look. Her eyes suddenly turned dark. Just as Manager Song said, this Renyifang had not made any money for four or five months...
The last time I received any income was in winter, before the rainy season. I thought the medicinal herbs would not have become moldy like they are now.
Shopkeeper Song did not lie.
"Miss, I know I shouldn't sleep when the shop is open, but the business is not going well and I really have nothing to do! Fortunately, the deed to the shop is in your hands, otherwise Renyifang would have closed down long ago."
"Look, I'm the only one in this huge store, and I don't even hire any assistants, but I'm still losing money day by day!"
After listening to his explanation, Jiang Mingwei remained silent.
Shopkeeper Song finally found someone to talk to, and he poured out all his grievances.
Renyifang was a shop he had built himself, so he had the deepest feelings for it than anyone else, otherwise he wouldn't have persisted for so long without giving up.
But he also knew that he couldn't go on like this.
"Since you are here today and have noticed the root cause of Renyifang's problems, I beg you to think of a way to save Renyifang!"
"This is the dowry that the master and his wife left for you. If it is destroyed like this, they will not be able to rest in peace even in their graves..."
Jiang Mingwei's face was cold and she was thinking carefully in her mind.
She really didn't want to lose Renyifang, so for now she had to keep it running normally, and then build up its reputation step by step again!
"Since the nobles are not coming, then we will focus on the common people for now. Go and buy some medicinal materials first. They don't need to be too expensive, and the quality doesn't need to be too good. As long as they can cure diseases and save lives, they are fine."
She spoke in a low voice, walked to a spot near the door, and gestured with her hands.
"Put up a sign at the door to explain the future prices of Renyifang's medicinal materials. Sell them exclusively to the people. Keep the store going for now. I'll figure out the rest!"
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Song looked embarrassed and gave a bitter smile.
"But Miss..."
