Chapter 659 Lin Chong's White Gloves——Gao Qi!
Sui'an Medical Center.

With patients coming and going and getting medicines busy, the good reputation of this clinic has been completely blown out.

It's just that four or five of the regular doctors have changed recently, some are hired, and some are apprentices brought out by An Daoquan.

"I didn't expect that the apprentices brought by Dr. An would be able to become teachers so soon, but Dr. Lin didn't bring out apprentices."

"Doctor Lin's medical skills are too good, they can't learn it!"

"I don't think it's because you don't want to teach it. To teach an apprentice, starve the master to death, that kind of unique skill, if you are not a disciple, who is willing to teach it easily?"

"That's right, it's a pity that we didn't have the opportunity to learn from two doctors..."

Compared with the other employees in the pharmacy who talked a little bit from time to time, shopkeeper Sun's face looked a little haggard. He kept silent, kept accounts, and was silently greedy for money.

Ever since King Ming's statue broke that day, he had been seriously ill when he returned home, but he didn't dare to be sick for a long time, lest he be kicked out and miss the cornucopia. After a few days of hasty rest, he returned to work, but became much more taciturn.

The buddy who believed in the Mingzun religion obviously knew what was going on, and there was a bit of worry in their eye contact.

Recently, there have been many turmoil in the capital, and the calls for arresting the cult thieves have been louder and louder. They are already quite regretful in their hearts, why they listened to the instigation of shopkeeper Sun and believed in this cult.

Just imagine if King Ming was really so effective, how could he end up in such a state, now it seems that it is better to go to Daxiangguo Temple to worship!

In any case, seeing the patients leave one after another holding the medicine, as the sun went down, the ordinary day was about to pass, but there was a sudden noise outside the door, and then a group of imperial city guards dressed in official uniforms charged came in.

The expressions of everyone in the hospital changed.

The Huangcheng Division was notorious before, especially in the period when they heard someone talking about Ouchi, no matter what they said, and arrested them wantonly, which made the capital panic.

But now he has turned to arrest the cult thieves who set fire to and killed people in the capital, and their reputation has changed a lot. The leader, Tidian Gao Qi, has become Gao Qingtian in the eyes of many people who hate the Mingzun sect. Ding Yanluo and Ding Yanluo of the Kaifeng government office can be said to be brilliant for a while.

Of course, Gao Qingtian belonged to Gao Qingtian. For the Imperial City Division as a whole, most of the common people were still afraid. Seeing this group of soldiers rushing in, many people stepped aside in fear, trembling.

Shopkeeper Sun had a ghost in his heart, and when he saw the visitor, his complexion changed drastically, and he immediately told his confidants: "Go to Dr. Lin quickly, and Dr. An is also fine, we can't afford this!"

Just as the guy was about to go to the back door, he stopped and made a look: "Doctor Lin is here!"

The next moment, the atmosphere changed, because Li Yan led Jiang Jing and Zhu Wu out in a row, and the soldiers of the imperial city respectfully separated to the left and right. Those who didn't know thought they were subordinates.

In fact, it was indeed true, Li Yan waved his palm, and simply said: "Take down this group of cult thieves!"

The Imperial City Secretary can't do other things, but arresting people is still possible. He rushed over like a wolf, and his hideous appearance caused the guys who already had ghosts in their hearts to fall to the ground in an instant, and then they were dragged up.

Shopkeeper Sun forced himself to be calm, but was desperate to find that two big men were coming towards him, pressing iron-like palms on his shoulders from left to right, and folding his arms back, a sharp pain suddenly hit him , he bent forward, knelt down on the ground, and screamed: "Ah!!"

The doctors and customers were puzzled, and some bolder people asked, "Master Lin, what's wrong?"

Li Yan sighed and said: "Unfortunately, there are internal thieves in the medical clinic. It is my fault that the shopkeeper and the staff believe in Na Mingzun's teaching!"

The voice echoed, and everyone changed color.

What the doctor is worried about is that if such things break out, it will deal a big blow to the reputation of the clinic.

It is true that some patients went out immediately and never came here again, but seeing this frank and frank man, many patients said: "We can trust the medical ethics of Dr. Lin. These people believe in cults. What has anything to do with Dr. Lin?" Woolen cloth?"

Li Yan cupped his fists at them: "Thank you for your trust!"

He has always done things quickly. Since it is a fact, trying to conceal it will cause a bigger disturbance. It is better to solve it.

Seeing that the owner of the medical center announced that he would take the person later, the shopkeeper Sun, who was still holding a trace of luck, collapsed completely, and the other guys with earthy faces murmured: "It has nothing to do with us! It's all about us!" Shopkeeper Sun persuaded us to believe in religion, because he always took out the statue of King Ming to worship..."

The eyes of the Imperial City Siluo lit up: "Where is the statue of King Ming?"

According to the staff's confession, a cracked statue of King Ming was found from the hidden compartment behind the medicine cabinet.

Now that the criminal evidence is convincing, the prisoner was directly detained, and Li Yan also nodded and said: "You can contact Zhang Guan. Although these people are members of the medical center, the real employment relationship is in the hands of the Shangqiu Guild. This matter should be notified. .”

……

After half an hour.

Zhang Yu, the manager of the Shangqiu Guild, hurried to the door of the medical hall, got off his horse, and walked in.

After about two quarters of an hour.

He came out again with an ugly face, and the entourage behind him hurried to Huixian Tower with a stack of tall ledgers.

Enter Huixian Building, pass through the main hall, and then pass through many private rooms, until the deepest part.

When Zhang Yu walked into this quiet and elegantly decorated room, he found Zhang Tang, the leader of the Shangqiu Guild, making tea himself.

This old man who is nearly seventy years old is Zhang Dun's brother of the same clan, and his blood is still very close, so he can be called a cousin.

Compared with the Houjiang Guild, which is a union of unrelated merchants, the Shangqiu Guild has the meaning of a family business. The important leaders, shopkeepers, and stewards are all surnamed Zhang, which is the most important foundation of the Zhang family. .

The Zhang family is originally a rich family, and all the descendants of the past dynasties have become Jinshi, high-ranking officials and rich people. The fortune of this chamber of commerce began to take root from the time of great-grandfather Zhang Wenyan. When the prime minister of the Renzong Dynasty, Zhang Dexiang, truly became The important Chamber of Commerce, later Zhang Dun took power, and it has flourished to this day.

But not long ago, Zhang Dun had already decided to dismiss the Prime Minister and demote him. Judging from the attitude of the officials, it is obviously impossible for this man to have a chance of recovery. , It also had a big impact on the guild.

Under such circumstances, this incident happened again, it really was a leak in the house and it rained all night!

Zhang Yu sighed secretly, restrained his emotions, took a few important books in person, stepped forward and saluted: "The leader! The shopkeeper Sun and the seven assistants in the Suian Medical Center believe in the Mingzun religion and embezzled the money of the medical center. Now it has been arrested by the Imperial City Department, and the statue of King Ming was found on the spot, the evidence is conclusive and cannot be denied."

Hearing the news, Zhang Tang's hands for making tea were still steady, and his movements were not affected. He said in a calm and authentic tone, "These shopkeepers and assistants were all sent by our chamber of commerce?"

Zhang Yu whispered: "Yes."

Zhang Tang asked: "Who discovered these things and brought the Imperial City Secretary to arrest them?"

Zhang Yu replied: "It was Doctor Lin who brought the Secretary of the Imperial City here. I have heard for a long time that he and the Secretary of the Imperial City Dian Gao Qiu had a close relationship. Now it seems that the relationship between the two is still beyond expectations. The reputation of the hospital has a lot of influence..."

Zhang Tang's movements finally paused, and his brows raised faintly: "Since the doctor Lin has such a close relationship with the Imperial City Secretary, he can solve it behind closed doors, but he arrests people with great fanfare, and has not yet shifted the responsibility to our side." , but solved it by itself?"

Zhang Yu said: "Not bad!"

A trace of solemnity flashed in Zhang Tang's eyes: "This person is not simple, and his plans are huge. He called you, what did he say?"

Zhang Yudao: "When I went, Miracle Doctor Lin was gone, and two people were left behind, one named Jiang Jing, who handed me the account book of the medical clinic, which listed all the fake accounts. In the past half a year, the medical clinic I have been embezzled for more than [-] coins, and [-]% of the gains have been withheld by these thieves..."

"Oh?"

Zhang Tang was a little surprised by the amount, not because the proportion of corruption was too high, but because he felt that the hospital made a lot of money. After taking the account book, he looked at Jiang Jing's sketch carefully, and was a little moved: "With Jiang Jing's talent, It is more than enough to be the general accountant of any chamber of commerce, since there is such a capable person, why is he being greedy for money?"

Zhang Yudao: "Because I didn't take precautions, this is a student of Suian Academy, who is going to be a Jinshi, how could he be willing to be an accountant?"

Zhang Tang nodded: "It can be explained."

Zhang Yu continued: "The other person who negotiated with me is Zhu Wu, who is extremely shrewd. According to him, this genius doctor Lin actually intends to enrich the foundation of the Chamber of Commerce."

Zhang Tang's gaze flicked: "Is it he who wants it, or Gao Qiu from the Imperial City Department?"

Zhang Yudao: "I don't know, but Zhu Wu's implication is very strong. With the twists and turns of this incident, even if the Houjiang Guild will fall, when the five major chambers of commerce divide the Houjiang Guild, our chamber of commerce will inevitably First out!"

Zhang Tang's face became serious: "What this son said is not bad. Now Mingzun's evil cult has angered the officials and the people are full of grievances. No matter who has anything to do with it, it will not go well. We have something to do with it. The other four The Chamber of Commerce will naturally not miss this opportunity..."

"No wonder you took the initiative to reveal it. This is because you want to retreat and form an alliance with our chamber of commerce. This matter should not be done by Lin Chong, but by Gao Qi behind the scenes!"

"Cooperation is beneficial to both parties. This matter can be done. You invite Lin Chong to Huixian Tower, and the old man wants to have a detailed discussion with him!"

Zhang Yu took the order: "Yes!"

Zhang Yu agrees with the leader's analysis of the alliance, but when he thinks of the Lin Chong he has come into contact with, he has a strange feeling that this person does not look like Gao Lian's white gloves.

But if it is an equal relationship, after all, Gao Qiu is an old minister of the government's hidden residence, and now he is in charge of the Imperial City Secretary, with a humble position. It seems that there is a gap between the two statuses. No matter how capable Lin Chong is, he is still a commoner and does not hold official positions.

Of course, there is another way of thinking that Zhang Yu dare not even think about.

Is it possible that Gao Lian is someone's white glove?
