Seeing Zhu Ding's wretched expression, he guessed that he must have come to occupy Dr. Feng's shop. Dr. Feng had been practicing medicine here for more than ten years, and he had never heard that this shop belonged to the Guo family.
The shops on Qixing Street are not very valuable. The larger ones are only worth a few thousand taels. Although it is an astronomical figure for ordinary people, the small shops on East Street and West Street are worth tens of thousands of taels. This infers that although Guo calls himself an imperial merchant, he is not very rich.
It's just that their guess is not wrong. The Guo family is indeed not very rich compared to the rich people in Kyoto, but he is a well-known rich man in their Qingshui Town. Their ancestral home is in Qingshui Town, but the family business But it was in Phoenix City, not far from Qingshui Town.
Phoenix City is close to Nanshan Mountain, Piaomiao Peak, Imperial Tombs, and the Mengshui River. It is naturally extremely wealthy, but it cannot compare with Kyoto, so Guo plans to buy property in Kyoto, but the shops in Kyoto are not cheap, and the location is better. It costs tens of thousands of taels of silver. No matter how famous the Guo family is in Phoenix City, they are just a little guy in Kyoto. Their plan is good. The shops on Qixing Street are relatively the cheapest. Guo Qilin, the head of the Guo family, thought of it first. Purchase a store on Shisei Street in Kyoto, which is in an average location and at a low price.
However, Zhu Ding's business in Yongshengtang is booming. Unfortunately, the shop floor of Yongshengtang is rented and will be taken back by the owner sooner or later.
In addition, Yongshengtang is also a transfer station for Guo's medicinal materials. Ordinary people generally do not go to Yongshengtang for medical treatment, but to buy expensive medicinal materials, Yongshengtang is available. Therefore, Zhu Ding has a high opinion of himself and thinks that the yamen knows a few people. Individuals want to take advantage of others by force.
Zhu Ding looked at the people around him talking and realized that he had been deceived by this little girl. Could it be that such a big man like them was afraid of three little girls? Then, he winked at the thug beside him and said : "Little girl, don't let this boy from the Feng family deceive you and waste two thousand taels of silver. If you don't believe me, just compare the document in your hand with mine and you will know whether it is true or false."
As Zhu Ding spoke, he went to take the sandalwood box from An Xiyue's hand. Five or six sturdy men around him also gathered around, obviously trying to snatch the house deed from An Xiyue's hand.
An Xiyue was prepared. If they dared to come forward, she would yell at them, or use the martial arts she had learned to knock them down. They did not dare to rob them openly in broad daylight. An Xiyue knew that although these people were hateful, But she was just following orders. If she used poison, it would definitely cause turmoil. In this way, her rationality would become irrational. Furthermore, she would also practice medicine and open a pharmacy here.
Suddenly, just as Zhu Ding stepped forward to grab the box in An Xiyue's arms, a bunch of pebbles were shot from the crowd with great force, hitting the strong man.
Suddenly, the strong man's legs and feet were numb and pain spread throughout his body, and he suddenly fell to the ground.
When An Xiyue saw this, she looked towards the direction where the pebbles were flying outside the door. She was suddenly stunned on the spot, her heart was beating in her chest, and her eyes were fixed on the man who was slowly walking towards her. people.
I saw Nangong Yuanyi in official uniform. This was the first time An Xiyue saw him in official uniform. His body was tall and tall, standing upright. With his exquisite facial features, at a glance, he seemed to be proud of the world. The king of time gives people an indomitable and powerful feeling.
An Xiyue was deeply shocked. The image of him today was not the same as the image of the past. He seemed to be a different person.
At this time, Nangong Yuanyi also happened to meet An Xiyue's gaze. At the first glance, he saw An Xiyue standing in the middle. In an instant, he pursed his lips tightly and stood silently behind the soldiers.
Seeing Nangong Yuanyi's eyes dodge, An Xiyue quickly looked away, but the fleeting loneliness in her eyes still fell into Nangong Yuanyi's eyes.
