In fact, when he learned that Tang Xiaobei was not kidnapped by the Zhou family, Jin Feng wondered if someone had the idea of making soap.
Now that he heard what the doctor said, Jin Feng confirmed this even more.
"Mr. Jin, I wonder how much money you want to spend to buy this news?"
The doctor asked with a blushing face.
Jin Feng glanced at the doctor and stretched out three fingers: "Thirty taels!"
"Five...five hundred taels!"
The doctor raised his hand and said: "I have already seen it. There are no precious medicinal materials in the soap. If you don't give me five hundred taels, I...I will tell the news!"
"Mr. Wei, are you threatening me?"
Jin Feng's tone became colder.
The recent events had already made him feel angry, and the doctor felt like he was on the receiving end of a gun.
Da Liu was also ready to throw the doctor away as long as Jin Feng spoke.
"No...I...I'm really short of money..."
It was probably the first time that the doctor threatened someone, and he was obviously not very skilled at it. Jin Feng suppressed his momentum and his words became incoherent.
"Whether you are short of money or not is none of my business."
Jin Feng said: "It's only thirty taels of silver. If you want to talk, just say it. If you don't want to, forget it. As for the soap thing, if you want to talk about it, just say it. I have no control over it."
Except for him, Dakang doesn't even know how to use caustic soda. So what if others know that there are no precious medicinal materials in the soap?
If you want to use soap, you can only buy it from him.
The worst case scenario is to find another place and continue to cheat... just continue to sell.
"Thirty taels is too little...one hundred taels!"
The doctor still wants to fight for it again.
"Mr. Wei, if you don't want to say it, forget it."
Jin Feng's mind was not here and he was already a little impatient.
There must be many people interested in the soap, and they are willing to pay thirty taels of silver, thinking that maybe the person the doctor mentioned may be related to the person behind Tang Xiaobei's kidnapping.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't even be able to make three liang.
"Thirty taels, just thirty taels." The doctor sighed: "It's Mr. Wenyuan."
"It's him?!"
Da Liu's eyes suddenly widened, surprised and regretful: "Why didn't I think of him?"
"Who is Mr. Wenyuan?"
When Liu introduced the situation, he only said that Tang Xiaobei had a conflict with Zhou Dewu, the third son of the Zhou family, but did not mention Zhou Wenyuan. This was the first time Jin Feng heard this name.
"Zhou Changlin once brought him to Miss Xiaobei to buy soap. It was said that it belonged to the Zhou family in the capital, but Miss Xiaobei didn't agree."
Da Liu said: "Later, Miss Xiaobei went to Chunfeng Tower to find Sister Ting and met him again. He invited Miss Xiaobei to have tea, but Miss Xiaobei refused. It was because of this that Zhou Dewu provoked Miss Xiaobei.
The doctor didn't mention it, and I didn't even think of it, but his bodyguard was a tall and strong man, a little taller than a hammer."
"Why didn't you tell such an important clue before?"
If there weren't outsiders here, Jin Feng would definitely kick Da Liu a few times.
This guy's observation skills are too slow.
"I'll settle the accounts with you when I come back!"
Jin Feng pointed at Da Liu, took out thirty taels of silver notes and handed them to the doctor.
While we were talking, several more veterans and female soldiers came from everywhere.
The county town is still very big, and monkeys firing arrows at the east city gate cannot hear them in the west city.
The Zhaojia Inn is located in the center of the county, so Jin Feng heard the sound of arrows at the east city gate and fired another one to summon tall veterans and female soldiers who were searching the streets of the west city.
Including Da Liu and others, more than a dozen people had gathered at this time. Jin Feng couldn't wait any longer, so he told Tang Dongdong and took these people to the east city gate.
It was almost noon, and the city had been closed for several days. The streets were full of people going out to buy groceries, and the war horses couldn't run at all.
As we approached the city gate, we could no longer ride on horseback.
There were already many people preparing to leave the city, but because of the fighting at the city gate, these people were frightened and ran back.
Jin Feng and the others had no choice but to dismount and lead their horses forward little by little against the flow of people.
When they finally arrived at the city gate, the battle was already over, and there were only corpses left in the city gate.
"The other party's attack was so cruel, they didn't even leave a single person alive!"
Amei checked the corpse: "Basically, they were all killed with one knife!"
"Isn't this Zhou Wenyuan too arrogant?" Qing Mulan took a breath: "Amei, is he the direct grandson of Duke Zhou?"
Her brother is Nishikawa Mu. Qing Mulan doesn't go to the capital very often and doesn't know much about the dandies in the capital.
"No, none of Duke Zhou's direct grandsons is named Zhou Wenyuan." Amei shook her head.
"Then he dares to kill even the soldiers guarding the city. Doesn't he want to live?"
Qing Mulan looked angry: "If I catch him, I have to kill him!"
Guangyuan County was under the rule of his brother. Zhou Wenyuan was obviously slapping his brother in the face by doing this.
Jin Feng also frowned slightly.
He had seen bloodier scenes, but those were against invading enemies and bandits.
And these corpses in front of me are government soldiers, regular soldiers who receive military pay from the imperial court.
It's impossible for the other party not to understand this, but he still kills him, obviously not paying attention to the soldiers.
Cong Qing Mulan's tone of voice also proved this point.
What surprised her was not that the other party dared to kill the soldiers, but that the other party was not the direct grandson of Zhou Guogong.
Qing Mulan was usually very carefree and didn't care about anything. She often deliberately teased Xiao'e, which almost made Jin Feng ignore the fact.
She is also a noble, and her position is still on the side of the noble.
Perhaps in Qing Mulan's view, if the opponent is the direct grandson of the Duke, it might be reasonable to kill a few soldiers.
A dandy would dare to do this. Aren't their fathers, those officials with real power, audacious?
"Who is the brother guarding this city gate?"
Jin Feng asked with a cold face.
"It's a monkey!" Da Liu's expression changed: "Where's the monkey?"
"it's here!"
A female soldier opened the overturned stall and revealed the monkey lying inside.
At this time the monkey could no longer get up.
Seeing the female soldier trying to pull the monkey up, Jin Feng quickly ran over to stop the female soldier.
"His ribs may have been broken by the kick. When you pull him up, if the broken bones pierce his internal organs, you won't be able to save him."
Jin Feng stopped the female soldier, squatted next to the monkey and asked, "How do you feel?"
While asking, he also untied the monkey's clothes.
The right side of the chest was indeed bulging, obviously held up by broken bones.
"It's okay... I can't die yet..."
The monkey vomited a mouthful of blood and said: "Sir, it was Zhou Wenyuan's guard who took action... Amei is right... His leg skills are too powerful... I am useless, I can't even walk through three moves... However,
I shot that young man with an arrow..."
"Stop talking, you have done a good job, you don't have to worry about the rest, I will definitely catch him!"
Jin Feng turned to the female soldier who found the monkey and said, "You stay to take care of the monkey and find the best doctor in the county. By the way, the one I just met at the inn."
He doesn't know much about medicine, he only knows some common sense. The monkey can still speak so many words, and his breathing doesn't make any noise, so he shouldn't die.
"yes!"
The female soldier nodded and agreed.
"Take good care of yourself!"
Jin Feng patted the monkey's shoulder lightly, stood up and said coldly: "Chase!"
