Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Chapter 420: Bet, if you lose, you will get wholesale

When the people in the shop saw someone suddenly come in to question them, and even brought up human lives and official hats, they could not help but look at each other in confusion, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Qiao Jianer came back just as he reached the door.

"Uncle, we are selling medicinal herbs very well. It's not appropriate for you to say such discouraging words," she said bluntly.

"I am just trying to advise you with good intentions not to disregard human lives for the sake of temporary gains." Shopkeeper Tan said with a righteous attitude.

Madam Chu was displeased: "Manager Tan, I don't understand why we are so disregarding human lives."

"We all run pharmacies. You're not unhappy just because my business is booming, are you? Your pharmacy has been open for over ten years and has three floors. You don't have to be jealous of a small shop like mine."

Shopkeeper Tan snorted, "All medicinal herbs that can be used to treat illnesses are included in the 'Compendium of Materia Medica'. The herbs sold in major shops and clinics fall within the scope of the 'Compendium of Materia Medica'. This herbal reference book is compiled by the Imperial Hospital. Every year, new herbs that are proven to be effective in treating illnesses and strengthening the body are reported at the end of the year and included in this 'Compendium of Materia Medica'. It not only has text descriptions but also illustrations for easy identification. Most of the herbs on your shelves have never been seen, let alone heard of, yet they have such effects. This shows that they are not following the right path and are banned drugs."

It wasn't just Liu, the laborer. On his way there, he also heard two men discussing that the medicine they bought from the Chu family pharmacy could actually last for half an hour. The two men were very happy, with a look of pride on their faces as if they had regained their masculinity.

Qiao Jian'er was both angry and amused, but looking at this Shopkeeper Tan, it seemed that he was not intentionally causing trouble, but really cared about the safety of human lives.

Considering this responsibility, she said patiently.

"To be honest, these medicines of mine are imported from Xiyan Country, where they have a history of hundreds of years of use, so their safety can be guaranteed. Since you mentioned having this 'Compendium of Materia Medica', I'll submit it to you by the end of the year."

"Now that such a miraculous medicine has suddenly appeared, don't use the barbarians as an excuse." Shopkeeper Tan was still stubborn.

"Besides, there is the Flame Mountain between Xiyan Kingdom and Daze Kingdom. There is almost no communication between the two countries. How can I judge whether what you said is true or false?"

"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, how did you transport it here? Were the men and horses not afraid of being burned to death by the flames of Flaming Mountain?"

"The Western Flame Kingdom has special transport birds, the Fire Eagle, which can carry 500 kilograms."

"Strange, too strange! How can a little girl like you communicate with them?"

"Let's put it this way. There's no point in talking more. Let's make a bet." Qiao Lianer said.

"What bet?"

"After three days, if the people who use these herbs have more strength and energy, and no other adverse symptoms, then my herbs are fine."

"When the time comes, Shopkeeper Tan will wholesale these medicinal herbs to your shop."

Since the owner of a big drugstore has come to our door but still holds prejudices against us, we can just use him for marketing.

Even those who had objections surrendered, so what about others?

Shopkeeper Tan thought about it seriously. If there was really something wrong with these medicinal herbs, it would be revealed in three days anyway.

This person is just a mortal, and he can't withstand the poisonous medicine for long.

Moreover, the medicinal materials in this shop have strong and obvious effects, and are not the kind of chronic medicine that takes effect slowly.

"Okay, if I really misunderstood you, and if your herbs are really that effective, even without mentioning the bet, I'm going to get them before anyone else."

Who doesn't want good medicine when running a pharmacy? He didn't come here intentionally to cause trouble, he was just worried that these herbs would be harmful to people's health.

"Of course, if something happens to someone, you'll have to close the shop and pay for their recovery. If someone dies, not only will you have to pay for the funeral, but Mr. Chu will also have to report to his superiors."

Shopkeeper Tan faced Madam Chu and clasped his hands together, "Madam Chu, don't blame me for speaking harshly. After all, human life is at stake."

"I have been practicing medicine for many years and I am not afraid of power. Human life always comes first in my heart."

Old Madam Chu was angry, amused and speechless, but the other party was so persistent because he was considering human lives. Besides, the bet had already been made, so she did not blame him.

With a cold expression, he ordered the guest to leave: "Then Manager Tan, go back and wait for news."

Shopkeeper Tan left. Before leaving, he asked for a few popular medicinal herbs, saying he wanted to take them back for research.

Qiao Yunni shook her head: "What can I say about this Shopkeeper Tan?"

"He has had this temper for many years. Once, the matter got so serious that it was even reported to the government office." Old Lady Chu said helplessly.

Suddenly she thought of something and her eyes flickered.

"We'll see the results in three days, so you won't be going back until three days later."

Not counting the first day, today is already the third day that the mother and daughter have been at the Chu family. They will leave in two days.

Old Madam Chu just felt that these few days were so short, and she was reluctant to leave.

Qiao Yunni looked at Qiao Jianer, waiting for her to make a decision.

When we set off, Old Mrs. Qiao told us that since this was our first time here, it was okay to stay for half a month or even a month.

But there is the Qiao family at the east end of the village, and there is also a time bomb, Song Ruier, so Qiao Jianer can't stay here for too long.

However, three days is definitely worth keeping.

"At least we have to wait until the Chu family shop forms a wholesale supply relationship with several large pharmacies. Then it will be much more convenient for Grandma."

Old Madam Chu was delighted. In this way, not to mention three days, even five or six days would be no problem.

To celebrate, she memorized a few more herbs.

Thanks to the word-of-mouth spread yesterday, business is even better today. Not only are adults coming to buy medicinal herbs, but many children are clamoring to buy nuts.

The news spread even faster among children. They came in groups, pulling their parents' hands. When the adults heard about the medicinal herbs, they also bought some to try, forming a virtuous circle.

The sumptuous meal from last night was served again, and tonight the variety was even more varied. However, after hearing what the mother and daughter said, Old Madam Chu stopped wasting food and ordered small portions of everything, so by the end the meal was almost full.

Old Master Chu was drinking and was a little silent because there was no progress to report in the search for Song Lao San.

If Mr. Song is really dead, he also hopes to find his body so that he can feel at peace.

Qiao Yunni knew what the old man was thinking, so she tried every possible way to make him happy.

Mr. Chu didn't want to make his daughter worry, so he put the matter aside for the time being and had fun with everyone.

After washing off the smell of medicinal herbs, Qiao Lian'er lay down on the bed. Suddenly, she felt something strange under her pillow, as if an invisible and subtle feeling was transmitted to her brain.

She stood up, lifted the pillow, and found a letter written to her by Pei Zhujin underneath.

Is he echoing her?
