Chapter 457: If you want to get rich, build roads first
The construction of the medical center is in full swing, and Fubao has not been idle these days.
I often take Big Tiger and Little Tiger to the medical clinic to check on the progress.
Then I went to the street to observe how other businessmen did business.
Fubao knew all about the people selling candied haws on the street and selling wontons from their stalls.
With the support of the automatic price marker of all things, Fubao can see the purchase prices of some small vendors.
Those vendors who sell well may seem to be selling at low prices, but their actual profits are pretty good.
Especially for those selling snacks, Fubao was greedy for food and the income from others, and secretly thought that he also wanted to start a food business.
Of course, she still remembered the matter of treating the eldest prince.
The fifth uncle and the seventh uncle worked together on the research and seemed to have made some progress.
In the past few days, she had gone to the palace twice with her fifth uncle to see the eldest prince. Every time, her fifth uncle would make some unexpected discoveries.
For example, this poison is indeed as he suspected, not effective on adults, but only on unformed fetuses.
For example, this poison may actually take away the life of a baby, causing the fetus to miscarry without knowing it. It is indeed a miracle that the eldest prince survived.
The fifth uncle was busy interpreting, and the seventh uncle was busy creating or even transforming the poison. The two went in different directions but reached the same goal, both of which helped the eldest prince stand back on his feet.
The queen, who paid close attention to the eldest prince's situation, knew that this was poison, but she was always cautious and refused to alert him.
Even to the emperor, the empress did not reveal anything. She only said that the Jiang family was treating the eldest prince's disability, never mentioning that it was caused by poisoning. Secretly, she had been investigating the people who had sneaked into the residence.
Among them are the current Concubine Jing, Concubine Hui and others...
However, it was said that after Concubine Jing was released from the ban, her temper became much calmer and she became more peaceful. The only thing she did was to intercede with the emperor, and her daughter Changle was also released from the ban. The mother and daughter had always kept to themselves and were quite quiet.
Concubine Jing had nothing to do if she couldn't be quiet. This incident taught her a lesson. She knew that the emperor's so-called love was just a matter of giving it to you if you liked it, and taking it back if you didn't. In the emperor's heart, she probably didn't know anything.
no.
Her father, the general, took the initiative to request to guard the border, which was equivalent to trying to survive with a broken arm. When Concubine Jing saw it clearly, she only felt sad and hateful.
I hate the Tian family for being ruthless.
Concubine Hui walked around anxiously in the palace.
She was usually dignified and polite to the outside world, but when the door was closed, her maid would often not dare to raise her head.
Concubine Hui had a sinister look on her face, "It's really unreasonable! The emperor really still has Concubine Jing in his heart! Only a few days have passed, and he can't wait to lift her ban! He even ordered her to sleep with her!"
The second prince comforted her, "Mom, don't be angry. Concubine Jing has no children, so she can't afford to cause any trouble. It's the queen's side..."
When Concubine Jing mentioned that she had no children, Concubine Hui looked gentle and even fiddled with her nails with some composure.
"Recently, the eldest prince's line has become very close to the Jiang family... That Wulang of the Jiang family is just a young man who is not yet married. The emperor gave him the title of doctor just for the sake of the Jiang family. According to me
Look, what kind of miracle doctor is there..."
Concubine Hui was a little scornful, but the second prince remembered the day when he bumped into Jiang Xi and Fubao in the bookstore and made a fuss.
He looked gloomy and said, "Mother is absolutely right! Seeing how young my son is, how can he be ready to cure his illness? The queen must have been sick and went to the doctor in a hurry, and got confused!"
As for who made the queen so anxious to cure the eldest prince?
Concubine Hui looked at her son with pride and said, "Son, it is you who the Queen is afraid of. You are also grown up, and Concubine Hui will ask your grandfather to work more in the previous dynasty and urge His Majesty to establish a heir. As long as His Majesty cannot withstand the pressure.
, you are the next prince..."
The mother and son looked at each other and smiled, with the same ambition in their eyes.
Concubine Hui was unwilling to be inferior to others, while the second prince enjoyed the pleasure brought by power.
He thought that as long as he became the prince, let alone renovating a little Princess Changning or a medical doctor or a bookstore, he might not be able to defeat the Jiang family!
"But having said that, it seems that your father is very fond of Princess Changning of the Jiang family, and even specially asked you to go to the imperial garden to play with her... I think the emperor is interested in making her the next crown princess. Your Majesty, you
You must remember that before everything is finalized, you must not offend the Jiang family, and you must have a good relationship with that Fu Bao."
The second prince felt a little unhappy when he thought of the girl with dark eyes, "But mother..."
Concubine Hui interrupted him with a sharp look in her eyes, "That day in the Imperial Garden, you caused her to fall into the water, so the Jiang family treated your grandfather. Jiang Qi, the Dalang of the Jiang family, is not someone to be trifled with. Not to mention the court.
He also has several brothers in the hall to help. No matter what, the Jiang family must be your helper, and Fubao is your best opportunity to get close to them."
The second prince said: "My son knows about his mother...but what if the Jiang family helps the eldest prince?"
Concubine Hui sneered: "If the Jiang family can't win over, then it will be ruined."
The second prince looked at his confident mother and his confidence doubled, his eyes showing a cold light, "Yes, I know."
Less than half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Thanks to the efforts of the workers, the medical center was successfully completed!
On the day it was built, the Jiang family specially decorated it with lanterns and colorful decorations and named it "Baicao Hall".
Several rounds of firecrackers were set off and lanterns were decorated to celebrate the completion of the shop.
Fu Bao also changed into a red dress that day, which made his little face even more rosy and cute. The two little balls fell on his head. He was so cute that anyone who saw him wanted to kiss him hard.
Jiang Xi and Jiang Yuan also rarely broke away from their sleepless research and came to the medical clinic with Fu Bao in their arms.
The spacious and simple new medical center is located in front of you, and everything went smoothly as planned.
"Thanks to our Fu Bao, my fifth uncle heard that our Fu Bao comes to check on the progress of this shop every day?"
Fu Bao nodded naturally: "Fu Bao also wants to make money, of course!"
Yes, Fu Bao, the little elf ghost, has already made an agreement with his fifth uncle.
Fubao has to bear one-third of the money spent by the shop. That is to say, when the shop is opened, the costs are shared by the Jiang family's fifth and seventh elders and Fubao, making a total of three owners.
The workers paid their wages and left happily.
The Jiang family was left to celebrate the completion of the medical center. Unexpectedly, many dignitaries from Beijing heard the news and came to support them. Some wanted to curry favor with the Jiang family, some wanted to find out, and some wanted to seek medical advice...
They were all blocked by Jiang Xi, who said——
"Baicaotang will officially open in three days. You are welcome to come then!"
There seemed to be another figure in the crowd. Fu Bao glanced at it unconsciously, and it looked familiar...
Hey, isn't that Xu Qingshan?
The young man was still carrying a backpack today and looked a little anxious. He was shouting in the crowd to wait a moment, but was drowned out by the noise of the crowd.
Others are about to be squeezed out by the crowd.
Fu Bao shouted at the top of his lungs, "Wait a moment! Xu Qingshan, come here!"
