Chapter 80
Thunderbolt left, taking the cashier's heart with him.
This is a metaphor.
The accountant was a little lazy, like a lover who had just separated from his beloved.
"The survival rate after a heart transplant is decreasing year by year, and he has to come back every year."
Yao Chen comforted him while eating.He is in a good mood. Recently, the cook's condition has improved, and his cooking skills have improved, and he has returned to the cooking level of a normal person. After Yao Chen's guidance, his progress can be described as rapid.And before Thunderbolt left, he peeled a lot of chestnuts, so he could eat several meals of roasted chicken with chestnuts.
"What if he dies outside? If something happens to him, how will he teach me how to live?" The cashier complained to Yao Chen that he should lock the Thunderbolt hand in the inn for the rest of his life, so that he can observe nearby.
"His martial arts has now broken through to the peak of first-class, and there are only a handful of people in the world who can move him," Yao Chen said, "If you think about it this way, when he returns home, he can bring more family members, and you want to see them too, right? ?”
The accountant's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he put the Thunderbolt hand aside for now, and flattered Yao Chen with a good piece of meat.
"His family's mental method caused great damage to the heart in the early and middle stages, and it became milder in the later stage, and it was suitable for surgery at the age of 20 to 30. He once mentioned several uncles who were in their forties, although they were older A little, but a good material."
"Enlightened people are born naturally." Yao Chen praised him, and the accountant turned his worries into joy, and discussed with him enthusiastically.
Material selection criteria, sterile environment, postoperative complications, organ rejection after transplantation...
Even though the baby-faced Thief couldn't understand, he silently moved his seat a little further away from the two of them, closer to the waiter, and the goosebumps on his skin barely disappeared.
At night, while Yao Chen was exchanging medical knowledge with the accountant, Thief secretly found the waiter.
"I stole this while the cashier wasn't paying attention. Which one is the antidote?"
The waiter searched for a while, and ate one for himself.
"How?" Thieves asked.
"Cough, cough, I..." After not speaking for a long time, the waiter coughed a few times in a low voice, and then moved his tongue before speaking slowly.
As soon as he opened his mouth, there was bitter water, tears streaming down his face: "Brother, I am suffering!"
The baby face said: "I have always wanted to ask, you are invincible in lightness kung fu, good at stealing, good at hiding, you are the king of stealing, the sage of stealing! No one in the world knows you are tall, short, fat, and thin, and I am lucky to have met you." I can barely recognize the footwork. You have disappeared all these years, and I still know where you are, and I don’t want to meet again here... How did you get to this point?"
As soon as the reason was mentioned, the waiter looked regretful: "I just went around the palace out of curiosity, and I happened to see a heinous villain stretching his hand towards the imperial concubine, as if he was going to be rude..."
"This, this...who is so bold, dare to give the emperor...?"
"It's the proprietress of this inn!"
The baby face was a little speechless: "Did you read it wrong? They are all women, how is it possible?"
"Who says he is a woman, he is the adopted son of Governor Cao of Dongchang!"
Although Babyface was surprised that it was involved in the Imperial Palace East Factory, and as the top disguise master in the Jianghu, he didn't realize that it was a man disguised as a woman, but in the end the desire to gossip overcame the others: "Eunuch?!"
"No."
"Scared!!" Royal really knows how to play.
Babyface learned of this royal secret, and said anxiously: "It's not too late, since we have found the antidote, let's run away immediately! Don't worry, someone is in Yinchuan to meet you."
"We can't escape."
"Don't worry, my helper, the government will not tolerate him!"
"No, no." Waiter shook his head like a rattle, instead of following Thief God's advice, he found another medicine in the pile and swallowed it.
"Why is this?"
"Because he's a chatterbox, he can't hide secrets." A woman's voice came in, and the baby face jumped in fright, and the hair stood on end. He was horrified to see Yao Chen and other experts in the inn standing outside the door.
"Spread rumors about me, the imperial concubine, and the emperor everywhere, slander and slander, tarnish the royal reputation, deliberately fabricate and spread fictitious facts, causing serious consequences, punish him with a three-year ban, today is for you to explain to him Forbidden. The list of your accomplices, give you a chance to tell me, or I will ask the accountant to ask?"
Yao Chen was not deceived by Thief God's safety at the beginning, a poison can't scare the daring Jianghu people.
The maker of poison can.
Thief God was completely honest this time, he even suspected that this powerful and scheming righteous son of Dongchangchang was kicked out of the capital because he blasphemed the imperial concubine. As for why he was not executed, it was probably because the emperor also had an affair with him Bar!
He obediently swallowed what the accountant gave him, not daring to resist.
Anyway, the Thief Saint has already been planted, and there is no shame in having one more Thief God.
After adjusting his mentality, he adapted well to the Wuyou Inn, but Captain Lu was very dissatisfied with it, so he could only actively join the ranks of arresting his accomplices, and followed the vine to find out that a certain caravan had been traveling between the Western Regions and the Central Plains all year round. Its owner is the Xie family's in-laws.
Everyone in Yinchuan has heard that after Captain Lu met the proprietress, the proprietress seemed to be in a better mood, and gradually regained her spirits, and began to warmly greet the guests, flirt with them, drink wine, sing and dance, and some nights even went into the middle of the night Just rested.
"Restrain yourself and pay attention to your body," the accountant warned, "The cook made you hangover soup and put it in your room."
The proprietress waved her hand indifferently, she seemed to be drunk, her eyes were hazy, she teased and said, "You are so kind to me, don't you have ill intentions towards me?" lively.
The accountant pretended not to hear, and packed up his pens and papers.
But the proprietress got up reluctantly and walked to his side: "Do you still remember the first time we met?"
The accountant knew his purpose and said, "It's vivid in my mind."
"Liar! I will reward you if you are right." The proprietress blinked slyly.
"Lingnan miasma is rampant, and malaria is rampant in autumn. There is no cure for the patients, and there are only three out of ten. I was collecting medicine locally and was imprisoned as a spy. You got my manuscript by chance, and saw that I have a little knowledge of the art of Qihuang , rescued me, and persuaded the government to let me heal my illness and make amends."
Many people in the Central Plains have heard of the malaria that spread in the south three years ago in the autumn. Malaria spreads from ten to hundreds, regardless of old or young. It was hot, the headache was severe, and there was no cure for it. Thousands of patients died in just half a month.At that time, the imperial court dispatched troops to garrison and tried their best to control it to avoid flooding.From time to time, a genius doctor offered the prescription "hold a piece of Artemisia annua, soak it in two liters of water, wring it out to get the juice, and take it wholeheartedly." In addition, the imperial court vigorously eliminated mosquitoes, and the epidemic was controlled.
This incident was widely circulated. Unexpectedly, the small accountant had experienced such a catastrophe, and the listeners were very sad.
"The road is as simple as it is, and the sound is rare. A little Artemisia annua is actually a good medicine for curing malaria. Now that Artemisia annua has been spread all over the world, it has benefited the people and saved countless lives. It should be clear."
The proprietress was still refusing to let go, and asked again: "What else?" She approached the accountant, her body almost sticking to the accountant's body.
The accountant evaded flexibly, and simply said: "Your close relative has Ruyan and needs to be removed."
Ruyan is breast cancer, a bumpy, rock-shaped tumor under the skin. The accountant performed the operation on the imperial concubine, and before he could be happy, he was almost given death by the emperor, so he was extremely unwilling to mention this matter to others.He called the waiter to come over and asked him to take the drunk proprietress back to the room.
When there are only two people left, the waiter warns: Don't get carried away.
The proprietress snorted coldly, rolled over and fell asleep.
"Boss, feed the horse some good food."
A young man with a baby face jumped out of the cart, handed the horse to the waiter in the inn, asked for a pot of tea and some side dishes, and sat in the lobby to rest.
That appearance is none other than the Thief God who should be in the Wuyou Inn.
A merchant was sitting at another table discussing the itinerary: "Half a day further east from here is the city of Nanjing."
"I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."
The baby face was also relaxed in his heart. He was eating with peace of mind when he was suddenly attracted by the shopkeeper.
"Guest officer, I'm afraid we don't accept precious banknotes here." The shopkeeper looked embarrassed.
"Well, the farther you go to the south, the lower the price of treasure notes," the guest sighed, "now the price of rice has reached [-] pieces of treasure notes. If this continues, I'm afraid that the treasure notes will be worthless. Buckle, how do you live this day!"
The shopkeeper tried to make atonement, but he didn't let go at all.
Babyface thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Brother, if you don't mind, I'd like to exchange it with you for silver."
The man dressed up as a literati and bowed to him and said, "Little brother, thank you for your help. A certain is a Beijing official. He came out of Hangzhou to judge and handle grain transportation. The price of precious banknotes in the capital is still stable, and it is only thirty guan for one stone and one meter. I dare not How about eating fat and losing weight, and occasionally changing the game?"
This price is also considered kind, and the baby face agreed, and made a happy deal with him.
After the literati left, the shopkeeper looked at the young face of the baby, and kindly persuaded me: "Forgive me for talking too much, since the beginning of spring, there have been rumors that the imperial court is going to scrap the banknotes, and the guest officer should be more cautious."
The baby face thanked the shopkeeper, asked where the rumors came from, and the current grain price, he had an idea in his mind, he saw that the sun was about to come, and hurried on his way.
The news that the imperial court wants to abolish the banknotes is not groundless.
Daming treasure banknotes were issued by □□, mainly due to the lack of copper, paper and pens such as treasure banknotes were used as a substitute, first issued by the Ministry of Education in Nanjing, and gradually popularized throughout the country.The imperial court once prohibited the people from buying and selling gold and silver, but the prohibition continued repeatedly, because the value of the banknotes was unstable, depreciating and rising. In eight hundred texts.
This is the case even if Nanjing is close to the imperial capital, which shows that the situation in remote areas is even worse, and the precious banknotes may not be as good as waste paper.
An official wrote: "The storehouses that have accumulated treasures and banknotes will be disregarded, so please abolish them."
Emperor stayed in middle school.
No discussion or criticism, which is intriguing.
This is not the first time an official has asked for a scrap of banknotes. Last time, the unlucky ghost was smashed in the face by the enraged emperor when he mentioned it, and then sentenced to another state. I don't know if he is on the way to death.
From this point of view, the holy will may have changed.
The court procrastinated and did not take action, but the depreciation of the treasure bills continued to deteriorate. Most shops refused to accept them, even if the exchange rate was extremely low. Those who held a lot of treasure bills suffered heavy losses. The yamen servant even went to the Shangguan to protest.
Under such circumstances, a humble underground bank in Nanjing began hoarding banknotes wantonly.
Unlimited purchases are [-]% higher than the exchange rate on the market. As soon as the news is heard, countless people come here. The largest transaction is as high as [-] copper coins.
"Brother, is your news reliable? All of your brother's wealth has been thrown into it." The owner of this underground bank has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He is not good-looking. He is a local snake in Nanjing.
The baby-faced old god is here: "Monkey, we have a life-threatening friendship, how can we still lie to you? I just did something for the Xie family, and they owe me. Don't worry, the treasure money can't be scrapped, and we still have little hoarding , Xie’s family is so ruthless, so many money houses... Hey! It’s really no profiteering! We guys, go in the wind and rain, how much money do we earn with our heads on our trouser belts every day? Wait for the government to take action, and the money will be restored The price, the ten lifetimes we earn this time won’t last!”
"What's the matter?"
"It's not the northwest side..." Babyface stopped talking halfway, "Stop talking about that, come and drink!"
"Drink and drink!"
The baby's face relaxed for two days, and suddenly the owner of the underground bank introduced someone to him.
"The god of robbers is polite, and has long admired his name. I am here for the treasure."
The baby face was annoyed, and scolded at the monkey: "If you don't tie your trouser belt tightly, everything will fall out! If you talk too hard, will you die?"
The monkey repeatedly begged for mercy: "This is my brother who is in charge, and he is very powerful in Guangdong and Guangxi. The Jade Buddha that you got as a tribute back then was only taken off with his help."
Babiesian barely suppressed his anger, and hastily bowed his hands in salute.His appearance is very blunt, but it proves that this matter is profitable, and he does not want others to share a piece of the pie.
Seeing that there was something to be done, the monkey immediately said: "Besides, our money is almost spent..."
"Let's not take this as an example. You have to know that if the word gets out and the value of the treasure stabilizes, our profit will decrease."
"Of course."
If the Jianghu people could keep their secrets, there would not be so many wonderful stories.
No matter what the secret is, there will always be rumors leaking out, through the servant who betrayed the master, the wife by the bedside, and the brother of the same school... leading to the news that "Xie's family has inside information, the treasure will not be scrapped, and they want to use it to make huge profits." It spread all over the rivers and lakes.
The in-laws of Xie's family tried it out, but Xie Xuan categorically denied it, and sincerely warned against the idea of making money. The imperial treasury was empty, officials were rotten, and corruption was rampant.
His in-laws didn't say anything on the surface, but they found out that Xie's family had close contacts with the officials of the Beijing Baochao Lifting Department—they wanted to promote the abolition of the Baochao, and the money flow of Xie's many banks was unknown—secretly supporting Mingjiao activities.This person secretly lamented that shopping malls are like battlefields, and the world can be ruled by strategy, and marrying a biological daughter can't be exchanged for a single truth. He secretly allocated some funds to buy precious banknotes.He is still cautious, even if he loses, he will not hurt his muscles and bones, but the profit is really attractive, high risk and high reward, it is worth a try.
Little did he know that someone was also paying close attention to his family's movements. He bought the treasures immediately after seeing Xie Xuan, which undoubtedly confirmed the rumors, and they took action one after another. The difference between the bold and the prudent was the amount invested.
They are all families of many generations. Once they acted, the effect was remarkable. The booming prices in the south finally stopped rising, and the value of treasures gradually stabilized. Although it was still lower than usual, it did not plummet.
Nanzhen Fusi has been paying attention to the promotion and depreciation of banknotes and private transactions. When he found out that the undercurrent was raging and someone was looking for opportunities to make profits, he traced the clues to an underground bank and invited the people behind the scenes to have tea.
The monkey had already tactfully avoided it with the important books and inventory. At this time, the underground bank was only a couple of kittens, and a baby face sitting in the lobby. There was a tea set in front of him, leisurely, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
Pu Jiayan secretly thought that this underground bank was not easy to deal with, and he seemed to have anticipated Jin Yiwei's actions, so he carefully ordered the cavalrymen to guard all the exits, and sat down in front of the baby face.
"The God of Thieves really lives up to its reputation." Park Jiayan was the first to tell the story of Babyface's identity, obviously having done his homework.
Babyface looked at the handsome and handsome Jinyiwei Qianhu in front of him, his heart was surging and he couldn't control himself, and there was some emotion in his eyes.
"Do you recognize me?" Park Jiayan asked strangely, the person in front of him gave him a strange sense of familiarity.
Babyface nodded: "I know the proprietress of the Wuyou Inn, I heard her mention you." He said and poured a cup of tea for Pu Jiayan himself.
Pu Jiayan's expression was as usual, but his heart became displeased. Although he was not by Yao Chen's side, he was always paying attention to the news from the Northwest. He heard that the proprietress had recently returned to her old ways and attracted bees and butterflies. He knew that maybe it was just a trick to deceive people, but it was still a bit tasteful.
This Thief God is handsome and cute, with quick eyes. When he mentioned Yao Chen, his tone was familiar and natural. It could be said that he was also the guest of honor on the surface of the proprietress, but the relationship between him and Yao Chen was complicated and could not be shown in the open, but could only be concealed. It's really complicated.
But the baby face seems to be familiar, and does not regard itself as an outsider at all.
"Nanzhen Fusi is very powerful and famous. I always wanted to go for a walk, but I didn't have the chance." Taking advantage of Pu Jiayan's unpreparedness, he grabbed his left hand and smiled incomprehensibly.
Pu Jiayan sneered, keeping his composure: "The God of Thieves is here in person, and he is full of brilliance. He will definitely entertain him well." He didn't immediately shake off the opponent's hand, watching the changes, waiting for the opponent to make a move, but the baby face seemed to be just to express intimacy Usually, there is no further action, just holding his hand for a long time, longer than it should be.
