Da Qin: At the age of six, I beat Qin Shihuang at the beginning

Chapter 8

"It's up to you to say, the magistrate must have thought of it a long time ago!"

A thin man squeezed forward and cupped his hands.

"My lord, I think the most urgent task is to find out the identity of this mysterious person."

He hehe smiled.

"Knowing his identity, we can find his weakness and let him be used by us!"

Zhao Gao stroked his chin and nodded.

"That's right, then I'll leave this matter to you. How about giving you three days?"

The thin man suddenly turned into a bitter face.

He just stepped forward to show off and make a good impression on Zhao Gao.

Who knew that he would get himself involved.

He didn't dare to reveal his dissatisfaction, so he had to bow down and accept the order.

Zhao Gao snorted: "After the matter is completed, a reward of one hundred taels of gold will be rewarded!"

The thin man left overjoyed.

Lees House.

"Li Xiang, Your Majesty trusts the mysterious man so much. If this man becomes an official in the court, he must be a great enemy!"

Li Si was expressionless: "Tell me, who is this?"

"This person must be at the level of the leader of a hundred schools of thought!"

"Mohism has always been against Qin, so it can't be Mohism. Could it be the head of Confucianism?"

"It may be the leader of the Yin-Yang family, after all, the Yin-Yang family also values ​​pills!"

"In any case, this mysterious person is definitely not an ordinary person!"

Li Si pondered for a while, and called Liu Wei, one of the Nine Ministers.

"Liu Wei, go and investigate the leaders of various schools of thought and see who has appeared in Xianyang recently."

"Yes! Li Xiang!"

Meng Yi Mansion.

"Master Shangqing, you are so happy after you come back, don't you worry about the identity of this mysterious person at all?"

"This person is highly trusted by His Majesty. If he becomes an official in the court in the future, he will be no less favored than Lord Shangqing!"

"Hahahaha." Meng Yi laughed.

"This person dissuades His Majesty from taking the elixir and kills Xu Fu. It's really refreshing!"

"Such a sage, even if His Majesty believes in him but not me, what harm will it do to Daqin?"

Wang Jian's mansion.

The painting style of Wangfu is different from others.

After the imperial court was over today, Wang Jian closed the door to thank the guests when he returned home.

He asked his servants to boil a pot of wine, and while drinking, he shouted "Happy!"
Wang Ben looked at his father, full of doubts.

Is father worried about that mysterious person who is widely rumored in the court?
It's just that he didn't dare to ask.

With 50 taels of gold in his pocket, Qin Mu returned to his home.

After finally seeing off Uncle Lifu and Lu Nu, he didn't even bother to eat dinner.

Now that I lie down, I feel that I am really hungry.

He rolled over and got out of bed, got up and went to the kitchen to cook.

Qin Mu originally hired a cook.

But this Daqin didn't have any seasonings, no matter how good the cook was, it was nothing to a modern person like him.

Later, the system rewarded a lot of seasonings, and it was difficult for him to explain the source of the seasonings.

Simply quit the cook and cook by yourself.

Although his craft is not very good.

But with the blessing of seasoning, it tastes better than the best restaurants in Xianyang.

Take a fish out of the tank, handle it briefly, and cut it into fillets.

Heat up the oil in a pan, put chili, Chinese prickly ash, star anise, sauerkraut and sauté until fragrant.

After the fragrance comes out, add the mountain spring water that was beaten two days ago.

Boil the water, add the fish fillets, remove and put in a basin.

Put the oil in the spoon, heat it while the fire is still warm, pour it on the chili, and add it to the basin.

Spicy pickled fish out of the pan!

Qin Mu was sweating profusely after eating.

It's a little different from the restaurant in the previous life, but this is in Daqin!
When there is a famine at every turn, it is so happy to be able to eat these!

Wait...the famine...there will be a famine next year!

Thinking of the famine, even the sauerkraut fish in my mouth is not delicious.

He doesn't have any grain in stock now, and the granary is so empty that not even a mouse can be seen.

"No, I have to buy food tomorrow..."

Thinking about it, Qin Mu fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Qin Mu came to Fangshi early.

"Hey, why did Divine Doctor Qin come to my shop today?"

Feng Tong, the owner of Datong Grain Store, hurried out.

Divine doctor Qin had saved Si Fangling's son, and he was a figure with a backer in Fangshi.

"It's nothing, I have nothing to do this morning. Shopkeeper Feng, how is the business recently?"

Feng Tong watched a six-year-old child asking questions solemnly, and couldn't help being a little amused.

"Since the unification of the Qin Dynasty, the number of soldiers and bandits has decreased a lot. Last year and the year before last were good years, so the price of food has dropped a lot!"

"Isn't it good to say that?"

Feng Tong was a little embarrassed: "It's really a bit poor. Storing food is not that simple, and it takes money to dehumidify and deworm."

"To tell you the truth, grain stores have been losing money recently."

Qin Mu's eyes lit up: "Since we're losing money, why don't Shopkeeper Feng sell these grains to me?"

"Sell it to you?"

Feng Tong looked him up and down: "Why do you buy so much food?"

"Then don't worry about it. Just say whether to sell it or not?"

"Sell, why not sell?"

Feng Tong hesitated and said: "Master Qin, I told you that this food can't be sold at a high price. If you want to resell it to make some money, it's impossible."

He was a little worried that after Qin Mu lost money, he would go to Sifang Ling to file a complaint, and he would be out of luck.

"I'm not selling this food, don't worry."

"Okay, my grain costs four dollars per stone..."

Qin Mu waved his hand: "Shopkeeper Feng, there is a cost for this grain storage. I bought it, so you won't lose money?"

Feng Tong couldn't help laughing. Although this genius doctor Qin is young, his mind is more flexible than that of ordinary adults.

"Alright, since Miracle Doctor Qin has asked, I'll sell you the food for three bucks a stone, and I'll deliver it to your door, okay?"

"Then it's settled. I want all the food in your store."

After Qin Mu explained, he went to the next grain store.

His ears moved slightly, and he heard Feng Tong muttering in a low voice.

"This miracle doctor looks very smart, how come he knows that he will pay for everything?"

"It doesn't matter, such a bully can't be let go at will..."

Qin Mu lowered his head and smiled.

Now you are laughing at me for taking advantage of me, next year when the famine comes, it will be my turn to laugh at you...

Soon, Qin Mu bought up all the grain in the square market.

He still felt that it was not enough, so he reserved the grain storage of several big landlords around Xianyang City.

50 taels of gold was not even enough, so I had to rely on my own reputation to get an IOU.

"Looks like I need to find a few big dogs to slaughter it..."

On the way back to the city, Qin Mu kept thinking about which nobleman in Xianyang City was sick and needed his own help...

Doctor Qin took action, and the medicine cured the disease.

With such a high status, you spend no less than a hundred taels of gold every month. I want 100 taels, isn't it expensive?
Um... 100 taels is not enough.

But Qin Mu wasn't worried either.

Daqin medicine is too backward, and few of the court officials are healthy.

Back home, Qin Mu directed the family's servants to build a granary.

The food in Fang City will arrive tomorrow, and there must be a place to store it, and it must be dry and ventilated.

If the famine hadn't come and all the food had rotted, then Qin Mu would have no place to cry.

After working until midnight, several granaries were considered completed.
