Chapter 120 Finally caught the thief and took the stolen goods
A woman's voice came from the hut next to her. She must have been a little excited, because the tone was very high: "What do you want the outer packaging for? This is medicine. The outside is just a wooden box. Who wants to eat wood? First tell me what this medicine is."
not real!"
I just heard an old man say, "I have checked the medicine and it is indeed real. We can accept it as it is now, but the three thousand taels you mentioned may not work."
"Why doesn't it work? Who takes medicine and reads the packaging?"
"Girl, to tell you the truth, this medicine is very precious, and only rich people can afford it. Those people are very particular about it, and all the packaging and receipts must be there! It needs to be in the security hall, and anyone who buys it can
It's registered. You see, there is a small number on the pills, and the box outside also has this number somewhere. You can't find it unless you look carefully. Moreover, there are marks on the box... many details.
Together, it can maintain authenticity and appear solemn, and we can sell it at a higher price. Otherwise, if all the money is given to you, what will we make? Do you think this is the truth?"
"There are so many things! It's just a medicine! Then... how about you give me the money first and I'll write you an IOU? Just go back and bring the box."
The old man said, "That's not necessary. You just need to keep the pills, and we will give you two thousand taels first. When the box comes, we will pay you another five hundred taels. A total of two thousand five hundred taels, what do you think?"
"Five hundred taels, didn't we agree on three thousand? You still have to pay me one thousand."
"Girl, we have to make a profit from our drugstore business. These seven pills may be sold at once, or they may be sold in installments. The backlog caused... is not a small amount. We work for the boss and invest two to three thousand taels.
, it only makes sense if you can make money."
The woman was very impatient and said, "You guys are so stingy. I trust you so much that I didn't ask anywhere else!"
At this moment, Lin Zhixuan secretly resented that she was too careless!
When I heard about the two thousand taels, I went crazy with joy. I should find more of them!
"If you don't give me three thousand taels, I'm going to leave. There is Tonghetang at the end of the street. If I go to his house and ask, I don't believe that he won't give me anything!"
The old master's voice was not anxious at all, "If you want, girl, you can go and ask. However, we are all in this business, and the rules are the same. If they pay too much, the boss won't be willing. Besides,
We are all peers, you are superior and I am inferior. If you break the rules, it will be difficult for everyone. Do you think so? If you are worried, just go and ask! There is only one thing, you go out of this door and come back,
We have to check this medicine as before! Medicine is something that is taken in to treat diseases, so we can’t be careless about it."
Lin Zhimeng's eyes were staring and turning, not knowing what he was thinking.
The old master was well-informed and smiled secretly in his heart. He still said sincerely and kindly, "Besides, do you see how beautifully made these pills are? You have also seen the medicines in our shop. Ordinary ones cannot be made like this. They are extremely precious."
That’s why the packaging is so meticulous. Always checking and touching it not only affects the efficacy of the medicine! By then, the pills will look unclean and untidy, and it will also affect the price and sales. Girl, if you listen to me,
Just do what you just did. If you don’t listen, go ask Tonghetang. But...at Tonghetang, it’s not the clerks or doctors who can tell the truth from falsehoods. They also have to have specialized masters. If you haven’t made an appointment in advance, you can’t.
The master is waiting for you, and I guess I can’t do anything today. If you’re not in a hurry, you can ask slowly. After all, it’s not a small number, it’s just a few days away, or maybe a hundred taels of silver... You can’t be too careful.”
If he hadn't said that, Lin Zhixuan would have gone elsewhere to ask.
But can she not be anxious?
What if grandma discovers it? Then the matter will be over!
Well...it's all for nothing anyway.
Even if it's only sold for ten taels of silver, it's still better than that sick man eating it and turning it into shit!
So he nodded, "Well then, these seven pills are worth two thousand one hundred taels. Go back and bring the box again, and you will pay another five hundred taels."
The old man said, "That's it...that's all. The girl is decisive! It's admirable!"
Lin Zhixuan was so happy when she was praised, "Then get the money quickly!"
The old man said, "We still have to sign something..."
"What are you signing? I won't sign anything!" Lin Zhixuan said sharply.
"Oh, that's right...Girl, you have the final say on the source of this medicine, right?"
"If I can't make the decision, how can I get here?" Lin Zhixuan said hypocritically and arrogantly.
She was so excited, two thousand one hundred taels!
"Oh. That's all, bring the money..." the old man told the people next to him.
Mrs. Lin Er, who was listening nearby, made a sound of "ouch" and rushed towards her as she left the small door.
He went up and grabbed Lin Zhixuan, "You beast! You evil-hearted girl! It's all in vain that your brother is so kind to you and I love you so much, but you are ruining this family like this!"
The second old lady grabbed her by the collar and started beating her with the other hand.
Lin Zhixuan was stunned and she screamed...
This time, Mrs. Lin Er was really hateful. She slapped her face, pulled her hair, and pulled all the hairpins off her head...
"I'll beat you to death, you little beast." The old lady kept beating her.
The master was startled: "This... this... let go quickly. Stop fighting."
Lin Zhixiu stood at the door, with a smile on his face: "Master, come out quickly, don't touch you." The little old man quickly slipped out.
Qiaoer was watching from the side, terrified, screaming... and not daring to move.
Lin Zhixuan has never suffered any loss in growing up.
When she made a mistake in the past, the old lady scolded her for a long time, and she had to retaliate for a long time. A few days ago, she was slapped with a feather duster twice, which was enough. Afterwards, she even blackmailed the old lady for twenty taels of silver. She never expected to pay her back.
When I was grabbed and beaten like this, I was still outside!
The old lady is the most embarrassed, but this time...
She was scared. "Grandma, please spare my life. Grandma, I was wrong! I don't dare anymore..."
The old lady was exhausted from beating her, but she still refused to stop.
"Stop beating grandma, are you going to beat your granddaughter to death?" Lin Zhixuan's hair fell down and covered her face, her nose bled, and her clothes were messed up.
Old Mrs. Lin Er was stunned for a moment and lowered her hand, "I didn't expect you to be like this..."
The master said, "If you have something to do, go home and tell it yourself! If you make trouble here again, I will report it to the official."
When Mrs. Lin Er heard this, she felt that this matter was not something that could be handled by officials. She sternly said to Lin Zhixuan, "Go back!"
Then he turned to Lin Zhixiu and said, "Girl Xiu, come and see if this medicine is right."
Turn around and go to Lin Zhixuan.
Only then did Lin Zhixuan realize that more than two thousand taels of silver had gone missing and she was even beaten.
How could she be willing to go back? She sat down on the ground and poured some sprinkles on her. "I won't go back. If I go back, you're going to beat me to death. Someone's going to die...Help!" she screamed.
She knew that the second old lady wanted face the most. Now that she was making a fuss, she would take the opportunity to get some benefits.
Otherwise, what should I do if I go back?
The old lady wanted to pull her up, but after struggling for a while, she had no energy at all. How could she pull this arrogant person up?
Lin Zhixiu ignored them and came up to look at the medicine. It was all right. She turned around and said in disgust, "Lin Zhixuan, you are not ashamed, but we are ashamed! You two pulled her into the car. If she screams again, shut her mouth!"
Nan Yan was so strong that she came over in two steps and picked her up. Then she twisted her arm and half-pushed her out of the pharmacy.
Many people were watching and pointing.
Lin Zhixuan yelled all the way, but couldn't open her door. She even lost one of her shoes. In a blink of an eye, she was in front of the car. Nan Yan threw her into the car with all her strength.
Dongyun said to Qiaoer, "Pick up her shoes. Do you want me to twist you and throw you into the car?"
Qiaoer's face turned pale, she picked up her shoes tremblingly, and got into the car.
The old lady looked gloomy...and let Lin Zhixiu help her out and get into the car.
Lin Zhixuan was lying under the car. She couldn't move, she was scared and angry, her whole body ached, and she was sobbing.
We arrived home within a few steps. Lin Song was already back. He didn't know what happened and was waiting anxiously.
Seeing them entering the door, he hurriedly greeted them, "What's wrong? Grandma, where have you been? Sister Xiu...sister? This is..."
He was frightened, his grandmother was in a daze, his sister had disheveled hair and blood on her face, and Lin Zhixiu had a serious face.
Lin Zhixuan was dragged out of the car and into the courtyard by Nan Yan. She knew that this could not be a good thing.
She stood in front of Lin Song, glared at him bitterly, and shouted, "It's all your fault! It's all your fault! Why are you such a good person here!? If you are sick, you should die. Why are you dragging me down?"
Lin Song fainted, "What's going on?"
When the old lady heard this, she rushed over and said, "I'll smash your foul mouth."
Lin Zhixuan let out a cry, sat on the ground, kicked her legs, and cried loudly, "Do I have the right to speak in this family? Sons have always been favored over girls! If they don't want me, why did they give birth to me?
We all have clothes and jewelry, but I don’t have anything! This family is so poor, and it’s all because of you, a tuberculosis man! You’re dragging us down...even your parents have killed you. Why don’t you die!”
When the old lady heard this, her legs softened and she sat on the ground.
Lin Song was so angry that he could hardly breathe, but when he saw his grandmother like this, he quickly came to help her. Tears streamed down his face.
The old lady couldn't get up, so she pushed Lin Song away and murmured, "Who has been bad to you all these years? Every time you ask for this or that, you treat it as unnecessary, and you get it in the end. You take out the things at home."
Go ahead, grandma only said a few words to you. Every time your brother is sick and takes medicine, you have to go through a lot of trouble. He is your brother! If something happens to you, can you and I still live?
?”
"If you can't live, then die! Even if you die, I don't want to live like this!" Lin Zhixuan yelled at the old lady. The tendons in her neck swelled, and her face was covered with snot, tears, and drool. She really looked like she was crazy.
Old Mrs. Lin Er pointed at her and scolded her, "You are such a bastard! You are so ignorant! Wow... My son died early. I am useless as an old woman, I am useless..." She slapped the ground and cried.
Lin Song pulled the old lady's sleeve and looked at his sister rolling on the ground. He really couldn't understand how he had such a sister.
Turning his head, he looked at Lin Zhixiu who was quiet next to him.
Why can't we have such a sister?
"Sister Xiu, what's going on?" he asked in a low voice.
Lin Zhixiu smiled mockingly, "Lin Zhixuan, you are really capable. She stole the medicine you will take next month and sold it in the drug store, but grandma caught her!"
"Ah?!" Lin Song was dumbfounded.
These past two months have been more relaxing than he has experienced in years.
He likes this feeling and is looking forward to taking another course of treatment next month and having a good autumn. After recovering from the disease, his mentality has changed a lot. He is brighter and more generous than before.
He thinks about things a lot more deeply. Recently, his master has looked at him with admiration.
If you maintain this state, there will definitely be no problem in winning the championship.
By then, the situation at home will be much better.
He didn't expect it! He looked sadly at his sister rolling there and crying.
Over the years, his sister had tormented him in every possible way and said all kinds of sad things to him. He was furious at the time, but he didn't take it to heart after that.
There are also girls' homes that are more pretentious.
Life in the Lin family's house is so good. The girls' basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation are obviously that of the ladies in the capital. My grandfather's generation was full of brothers, but now there are so many differences between the two families. It's understandable that my sister is unhappy.
Even if her younger brother Lin Bai was angry with her and couldn't deal with it, he finally ran away from home. He just thought that it would be better not to be together, so as not to quarrel every day and make his grandmother sad.
But at this moment... there was a feeling called "hate" in his heart.
He let tears fall on his face and asked in a trembling voice, "Why did you do that? Do you know how important that medicine is to me? I am your brother! I am your biological brother! Selling it for two thousand taels of silver is a lot.
But can buying a few pieces of jewelry and adding a few clothes change your life? Why are you so confused? Do you know that it is not easy for even Sister Xiu to get these medicines?!"
He had already asked his wealthy classmates about it, and when he mentioned this medicine, his classmates' eyes lit up. Those who could save three or five pills at home were all very arrogant.
He hasn't heard them say that anyone who takes it will get twenty-one pills...
Lin Zhixuan sat up. Her clothes were dirty and her hair was hanging on her face. Her tears were mixed with rouge and blood, making her face a mess. "Isn't it easy? Do you think she is a good person?! Why did she give you such a precious thing?"
?I haven’t seen her since she was a child, and we live across the room from each other. How can she have any good intentions? What evil is she holding on to?? A whole family is so grateful when someone sells it to someone else. You don’t even know how stupid you are.
!!”
She turned to Lin Zhixiu again, and Lin Zhixiu stood there, smiling lightly at her, and said silently: You have today too!
Lin Zhixuan looked at her look and was filled with hatred. "She treats us well? Then why don't she give me so many clothes and jewelry?! I wanted to see her coral hairpin, but she actually rejected me in public! She didn't take me seriously, and she didn't give it to me!"
Why would you be nice to you?! You stupid idiot! Lin Zhixiu, it’s all your fault! You instigated disharmony in our family, you bitch, just wait, I’m not done with you!”
Her voice was sharp and sharp, her eyes were wide open, and she looked like she wanted to catch Lin Zhixiu to death.
The old lady closed her eyes, tears just flowing down her face, and she collapsed on the ground unable to speak a word.
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said, "I didn't give it to you? Then what are you wearing?"
Lin Zhixuan was stunned. What she was wearing was really made of the material given by Lin Zhixiu.
She was so angry that she started to take off her clothes.
In front of a family of servants, men and women...the old lady almost fainted.
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said, "I think you are suffering from hysteria. Great-aunt, don't let her make such a fuss. If she continues like this, there will only be a dead end. Look, Cousin Song has managed to keep his complexion healthy, and now he is pale again."
.”
When the old lady heard this, she quickly sat up and looked at her eldest grandson.
Lin Song's face was indeed pale, and his lips had no color left.
"Song'er, don't be anxious, don't be anxious. We've got the medicine back, don't be angry, hurry up, help grandma up."
Lin Song's face was filled with tears, and he obediently helped the second old lady up.
Lin Zhixiu said to Mrs. Li who was next to her great-uncle, "Please find an empty room, mother, and lock the girl up first. Great-aunt, please discuss what to do?!"
The old lady nodded silently, "Xiu'er, leave it to you!?"
Lin Zhixiu nodded and handed the medicine in his hand to the old lady.
"Cousin Song, I have to make the decision."
Lin Song nodded silently, supported Mrs. Lin Er, who held the medicine tightly, and they walked into the house.
