"You are talking nonsense!" Butcher Zheng's wife turned red with anger, "He saved my husband's life!"
"Maybe he is delayed by something! He is definitely not a liar, and his patent medicine is also the best medicine! If it weren't for his medicine, my husband would not have recovered so quickly!"
Butcher Zheng also nodded repeatedly, "Yes! It's good medicine!"
"Your family is a butcher of pigs. There are so many big bones and meat. That stuff is so nourishing!"
"Isn't it better to stew bone soup every day and drink it every day to replenish my body and get better quickly? If I don't take medicine, I will be fine today!"
"He, it's you laymen who are being fooled!" The young man put his hands in his hands, raised his chin, and followed the old gentleman's instructions, speaking in a serious manner.
The melon-eating crowd around him was indeed moved by his words.
Many people nodded and said to themselves: It makes sense!
Mrs. Zheng's eyes turned red with anger. She was worried for her benefactor, but she was too stupid to talk to the boy.
When Prince Zheng was about to cry, a carriage hurried over and stopped near them.
Wen Jin jumped out of the carriage, turned around and hugged Wen Yu down as well.
"My benefactor! My benefactor, you are finally here!" Mrs. Zheng cried with joy.
She supported Butcher Zheng and hurriedly walked towards Wen Jin. Before they reached Wen Jin, the two of them knelt down and bowed down.
Wen Jin was a little embarrassed...she had forgotten about it.
If Wen Yu hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't have remembered it.
"Please get up, both of you, please get up." Wen Jin smiled and said, "How is your injury feeling?"
"Well, you see, walking is basically fine. I was a little dizzy and weak at first, accompanied by nausea. After taking the medicine you gave me, I recovered. Now I can eat and sleep, and I feel more energetic than before I was injured. !" Butcher Zheng was very excited.
The people around you, whether you have seen it with your own eyes that day or just heard about it.
I was still surprised to see that this "benefactor" was so young.
They all fell silent in unison, listening to the conversation with their ears pricked up.
"This is fifteen taels of silver. You said fifty taels, but we thought it was expensive at the time." Wang Zheng said with tears in her eyes, "It was only after I took the medicine when I went back that I realized that this medicine is really good! It's more effective than that century-old ginseng!" Five taels of silver, you must have said less."
"Besides, you saved my life. I didn't know the situation at that time. When I got home and heard what my wife said... I was so scared that I felt chills running down my spine!"
"If you hadn't insisted on saving me, I...I would have died a long time ago! This is my life-saving money!" Butcher Zheng said and knelt down again.
The onlookers looked at each other in shock.
I’ve seen counteroffers lower the price, and the buyer paid more than the seller wanted... This is the first time I’ve seen this in my life!
"I said I would charge fifty taels for the medicine that day, and I would only charge fifty taels. I would also charge fifty taels for the disinfection and sutures." Wen Jin said, "I will accept the other five taels as a gift. But I have something to do. Son, I want to ask you to inquire. This matter is more important to me than five taels of silver."
Wen Jin asked him to get up, collected ten taels of silver and handed it to his son.
Wen Yu collected the money and stood aside obediently.
Mrs. Zheng looked at him, and the more she looked at him, the more she liked him. If her son was so well-behaved, quiet, and good-looking... she would almost wake up laughing in her dream.
"What are you talking about? We are natives of Kyoto. If nothing else, there are ways to find out what's going on!" Butcher Zheng nodded repeatedly.
It seemed like this was a rare opportunity for him to repay the favor.
The people around them saw that their voices were getting softer and softer, but their thoughts were getting hotter and hotter.
That medicine sounds amazing!
Moreover, this young master is also a moral person. People voluntarily paid more, but he did not raise the price!
This character alone is worthy of trust!
I don't know who raised the head, and everyone rushed forward, "Young Master, what are these patent medicines?"
"What diseases can be cured? Can headaches and brain fever be cured?"
"Can colds and typhoid be cured?"
"My brother broke his arm after a fall. Will he recover faster if he takes this medicine?"
"Are your patent medicines still for sale? I'll take five pills, too!"
The front of the medicine shop immediately became quiet, and people rushed to the foot of the old elm tree, surrounding Wen Jin and the butcher and his wife.
"Sir, everyone has gone to their place," said the boy.
The old accountant sighed, his brows knitted into knots, "Go and invite him to our pharmacy."
The boy pushed his way into the crowd.
After a while, he squeezed out again and hurried back to the drug store.
"Sir, please go and have a look. They are all anxious to buy patent medicines from that young master!"
"The young master said that there are ready-made medicines for all kinds of diseases, and you don't need to buy too many. They are not life-threatening. One or two pills are enough."
When the old accountant heard this, his face became anxious. He didn't even care about getting Qiao, and followed the little boy and squeezed into the crowd.
"Thank you for your trust. I went out in a hurry today and didn't bring so many medicines. In the future..."
"If you want to buy in the future, you can come to our pharmacy! Our pharmacy has decided to cooperate with this young man!" the old accounting clerk said loudly.
Wen Jin looked at him.
The old gentleman smiled at her and said, "The young master said last time that the medicine should be sold in our shop, and our boss has already agreed."
Wen Jin shook his head, "No, I changed my mind."
The old gentleman's face changed slightly, "It's easy to talk about profit sharing."
"No need, I open my own shop at my own risk, so as not to damage the reputation of your pharmacy." Wen Jin said.
The old man couldn't help but said, "Last time, we were impulsive and reckless. But you are too young, and patent medicines are not common. We should be more cautious. Young people, don't be too stubborn!"
Wen Jin was amused by his statement.
Prince Zheng couldn't stand listening anymore, "Is my benefactor stubborn, or are you stubborn? You said my benefactor's medicine is not good! Now that you see the profit, you want to win over me again!"
"You two-faced people, let alone my benefactor, the doctor who saved people's lives! Even we who kill pigs don't want to cooperate with you!"
"Co-author, if I don't cooperate with you, is it my benefactor's fault? Are you shameless?"
The old gentleman was scolded by the shrew in public.
I wanted to cooperate, but now I can’t lose my face.
The old gentleman secretly said: "Shameless!"
The boy scolded: "Open your own shop? If you put it in our shop, we can bring you some profits through the reputation of our shop. If you open your own shop, your father won't even know you..."
"Bah——" Mrs. Zheng spat in his face.
When everyone saw this, they also pushed the guy out.
Wen Jin saw too many people and it was difficult to talk about things.
She asked Butcher Zheng and the two men to get into the carriage, and the four of them rode away.
The crowd gathered around the carriage and chased it for a long distance before gradually dispersing.
"What's the matter with my benefactor?" Butcher Zheng asked.
"I want to buy a house in Kyoto. Enter two or three times, and the place will be more spacious. The environment is elegant, and it is best to be closer to Chongwenyuan." Wen Jin said.
Chongwenyuan is the largest and most famous academic institution in Kyoto, with a large collection of books and many famous teachers and sages.
It is an ideal place for scholars all over the world.
Wen Shengjun studied in Chongwen Academy before.
"The houses near Chongwenyuan are extremely expensive, and they are basically expensive but not marketable," said Butcher Zheng.
Mrs. Zheng, however, looked excited, "Does my benefactor want to buy a house? My natal family is Yaxing! I will go home and tell my father and brothers to tell them to pay attention. If there is a suitable one, I will tell my benefactor immediately!"
