Returning to Before Husband’s Castration

Chapter 161: Kill two birds with one stone

In the evening, the people who ran the pass really fired at the ice surface. After a rumbling sound, the ice surface of the canal, which was originally covered with spider webs, made a click, click, and ice cracking sound. This is undoubtedly a sound for businessmen. In the first "Lucky Music", everyone was lying under the railing or window of the restaurant, eagerly watching the moment the ice collapsed.

Some of the brick-thick broken ice is as big as a bed, and some are as small as duckweed. It is swarmed and surging by the undercurrent. At first, the broken ice was slow as if it had been constipated for three days, slowly getting faster and faster, and flowing more and more. Anxious, crashing and smooth, the large merchant ships on both sides of the strait finally broke free of the ice and swayed at the canal pier. At that moment, the hull seemed to have a soul, and began to shuttle the canal north and south year after year.

The businessmen toasted and drank together, looking forward to this year's wealth, just like the water in the Taotao Canal.

Lu Ying, a medicinal material merchant who "rested" upstairs for a whole afternoon, carefully took his wife's hand downstairs for dinner. Since Wang Daxia had been "see through" as a woman dressed as a man, she simply did not bother to conceal it. Face peach cheeks with big red lips, green jacket on top, red skirt underneath, and a pair of purple rattan flowers in the bun. He piles the bright colors on his body and is charming and charming. Fortunately, he is young and beautiful and can be pressed down beautifully. s color.

Ding Wu invited the Jianghu doctor Wei Caiwei for dinner, set up a table for a banquet, praised her for her wonderful hands to rejuvenate, after acupuncture and moxibustion, the waist and legs did not hurt. Wei Caiwei took the opportunity to have a big meal.

The women from Qinghe County’s brothel came to solicit guests again. Of course, Lu Ying was the first target, but Wang Daxia sitting next to her was too bright and stared with two eyeballs. "Who" looks like Hedong Lion, the prostitutes dare not go forward, for fear of being scratched by Hedong Lion.

To avoid being harassed, Lu Ying scooped out a bowl of chicken soup for Wang Daxia, "This is old hen chicken soup. I want the kitchen to make it for you. Put ginseng and stew it together. It's the most nourishing."

Wang Daxia smiled like a flower, "Thanks to the official." He actually accepted the complicated character of male disguised as female, female disguised as male, and restored to women's clothing with a big belly.

Wang Daxia's appetite is amazing, and he eats more than her husband, but considering that he now eats two people's meals alone, it can be justified.

As for the flower brother of Ding Wu, he learned that he would be able to sail tomorrow. He hadn't touched a woman for almost a month, so he didn't even leave the room. The singing and dancing in the room stopped until midnight.

At night, there were people from the three-pass **** guarding the cargo in the cargo warehouse of Shunfeng Ship. However, Wei Caiwei put the medicine that was used on Bailianjiao's body to help sleep in their meals, and slept to death at night.

Wu Xiaoqi dressed up, heard the snoring sound in the box, got out, moved his curled muscles and bones, moved from his cargo hold to the next door warehouse, the box was locked, but it didn't bother him.

He took out a key from his bag, tried one by one, found a similar one, used a steel file and a small saw to transform the key, and finally opened the box.

The moment the box was opened, a dazzling golden light shot out from the box, like Monkey King popping out of the fairy stone, almost blinding Wu Xiaoqi's eyes.

It's gold! Fifty-two gold bars are neatly coded in the box, Wu Xiaoqi roughly calculates, there are almost five thousand taels!

Five thousand taels of gold is equivalent to fifty thousand taels of silver. What is the concept? For example, in the 20th year of the Ming Dynasty Chenghua, the total tax in Hangzhou was 23,000 taels of silver (Note 1), which means that the merchant ship Shunfeng carried Hangzhou's total tax for more than two years.

Wu Xiaoqi put the gold bars back, locked them, and went out of the warehouse and returned to the upper-floor passenger cabin. "Tootou, Luo Longwen's cargo is all gold, about five thousand taels. He is a scribe who makes ink. Then come these gold. It must be Yan Shifan."

These five thousand taels of gold eight achievements were a thousand taels that my father bribed to save Yu Dayou. Lu Ying was puzzled, "It's not right, Yan Shifan loves money like fate, how can he be willing to send a lot of gold out of the capital? Things that are abnormal must be demons. "

Asking Yan Shifan for money is like cutting his meat. The five thousand taels of gold is equivalent to taking off his arm. Only someone else gave him gold. Without him, what would he do?

Lu Ying is stuck here, "If his father is still there, he will definitely be able to give some pointers. He knows Yan Shifan very well, but it's a pity..." She missed her father.

Ding Wu said: "Luo Longwen also went directly to Hangzhou without stopping at the port, so he would fight for a boat with us. The road to the bridge head was naturally straight. When he arrived in Hangzhou, he would follow him and he would always catch big fish."

Lu Ying asked Wang Daxia: "What do you think?"

Wang Daxia's mind is still stuck on five thousand taels of gold. "I have never seen so much gold. Really, with so much money, what are you still doing as an official in the court? If it were me, I would have resigned and left for retirement. I just eat gold every day, and I can't finish it for a lifetime."

Seeing Wang Daxia's unpromising appearance, Lu Ying really hates iron for not making steel, "I ask you what you are going to do next?"

With golden light in his eyes, Wang Daxia rubbed his hands impatiently, "How about we play a trick and steal five thousand taels of gold? Anyway, it is ill-gotten wealth. We will kill the rich and help the poor, and distribute the money to the poor. , I took a little bit of hard work, not much, just one gold bar per person." My wife had an extra gold bar, which is a god-fortune.

Lu Ying gave up, "Go back to the cabin to sleep and dream."

Wang Daxia said: "Toutou, you think about it--"

Lu Ying: "Go away!"

Wang Daxia salivated at the gold, "You are polite to me, I still have your flesh and blood in my stomach." Since Wei Caiwei diagnosed the "fellow pulse", Wang Daxia has always shown her in women's clothing.

Lu Ying wanted to hit someone, but Ding Wu's eyelids twitched, and Wu Xiaoqi shook his head, "Shen Shifan loves money like fate. If it is not a last resort, how could he transport so much gold to Hangzhou? This is clearly a transfer of property. Did he have any troubles?"

Wang Daxia said: "Impossible. After Wu Peng took the post of retirement, Yan Shifan's uncle Ouyang Bijin just became the official secretary. It was more convenient for Yan Shifan to sell officials. So many officials lined up to give money."

In the eyes of outsiders, this is the case. The Yan family is still beautiful, even more powerful, and it seems that it will never fall.

Lu Ying has been in the funeral at home this month, and he didn't know that Yan Shifan's gutter overturned the ship, the first time he collected money and didn't do anything, and his uncle Ouyang would not cooperate with him in selling the officialdom. If Lu Bing were still there, he would have already seen that this was a sign that the Yan Family Mansion would fall.

Ding Wu said: "Will Yan Shifan be Luo Longwen carrying gold to do business? For power, the Yan family has reached its peak, and then it will be the emperor. Power will eventually come to an end. But money will not, money will never end. The leader Zhao Quan stole the firearms from the Wang Gong factory, and ordered Tie Niu to take the dead men with the firearms and pretend to be Japanese pirates to smuggle/smuggle them to make money."

Lu Ying had an idea, "If you want to make quick money, you must be a pirate smuggling/smuggling business. Luo Longwen has been on the southeast coast five years ago, knowing the two roads of black and white, and siblings with the pirate leader Xu Hai, and also with Hu Zongxian, the famous anti-Japanese warrior. Shijiu responded, five years have passed. Could it be that Luo Longwen has to return to his old business with the capital given by Yan Shifan?"

Wang Daxia slapped her thigh, "Tongwo! Yan Shifan wants to go through the Japanese!" This big hat was buttoned accurately.

Wu Xiaoqi became agitated, "Yes, it's just to pass the Japanese. It's a capital crime. The Japanese pirates have harmed the coast for many years. The emperor hates the Japanese pirates the most. If we get evidence that Yan Shifan and the Japanese pirates are embarrassed, his father and his uncle can't keep him."

Wang Daxia asked: "If we catch the thief and get dirty, and we catch Luo Longwen and the Japanese pirate trade, how much bounty can we get?"

Wang Daxia's mind is full of gold and his wife. Now his monthly salary is only a fraction of Wei Caiwei, and he is panicked with a guilty conscience.

Wu Xiaoqi said: "My share is given to Wang Qianhu. I only need Yan Shifan to pay for my life and avenge my father."

Lu Ying said: "I will write a secret letter to tell my second brother-in-law (the son of Cabinet Minister Xu Jie) about this matter. They have been fighting the Yan Dang for more than 20 years. If you can really help them trip the Yan Dang, they will have a future. Infinite, how can the bounty be comparable."

Wang Daxia thought about it, promotion and wealth, but not wealth, promotion is not bad, "Well, this time is a worthwhile trip, kill two birds with one stone."

Everyone discussed countermeasures, knocked on the door, and said, "Luo Longwen asked Dr. Wei to see him. Dr. Wei has already gone with the medicine box on his back."

what? Everyone immediately stood up and exchanged glances.

Luo Longwen is really sick. He has lived in the coastal area for many years. He often runs on sea boats and is fond of seafood and sashimi. Now when he is in his 50s, the problem of gout is coming. When he is attacked, he is like countless needles stabbing him. He has been in Yan’s residence for five years, and the doctors were all doctors. He didn’t seem to be a quack doctor like Wei Caiwei, but he has been living on a boat recently. The environment is wet and cold, the wind on the canal is strong, and the gout attacks. At that time, even Tie Chu couldn't hold it firmly, and had to turn to a quack doctor for help.

Luo Longwen looked at Wei Caiwei with a scrutinizing gaze, and asked: "I have been on the same boat with the doctor for many days, but I don't know the doctor's surname? Whose surname is it? Who is it?

Wei Caiwei neither humbled nor humbled and said: "My surname is He, who walks along the streets and lives like duckweed. Medical skills are passed on by word of mouth from the master. Occasionally I read some medical books. Doctors and patients also look at fate. Customers don't believe in my medical skills, so I will say goodbye. "

She had already revealed her life to Wang Daxia, and she used her surname "He" when she went out. Lu Ying had always suspected that she was the missing Miss He Er. Seeing that she claimed to be Doctor He, his heart became more determined, but he saw through it without telling it, the death of the He family and his daughter was too miserable.

Luo Longwen stretched out his wrist, "Excuse me, Doctor He, show me."

Wei Caiwei glanced at his finger joints, his finger joints were thick and swollen, his ear helix and fingertips were ulcerated like yellow and white sesame grains, and he didn't feel the pulse. He immediately made a judgment and said, "Take off your shoes and socks. I will look at your feet."

As soon as Luo Longwen heard it, he knew that he had encountered a professional and revealed his most painful sick feet.

Wei Caiwei saw that his toe head joints had begun to be deformed, and asked, "Gout has been around for some years. Most patients suffer from this disease at the seaside. Do not drink seafood, fish soup, and broth in the future. Alcohol is prohibited. I will give you treatment on the affected area. Needle bleeding."

Wei Caiwei opened the medicine box, lit a lamp, and took out a three-sided needle to puncture the affected area of ​​the hands and feet to let blood. Luo Longwen saw that her technique was similar to that of acupoint recognition and that of an imperial doctor.

After the acupuncture treatment, Luo Longwen’s hands and feet were inserted with silver needles in each of the major acupuncture points. Wei Caiwei drew up a pen to write a prescription, “When the port is anchored, immediately ask your **** to ride a horse to the drug store to grab the medicine. To the south, the spring rain is lingering, and the gout feels It will get better and better."

This time I was going south, and I happened to encounter the Meiyu in the south of the Yangtze River, which was not good for gout. How could Luo Longwen know that, but Dongweng wanted, he couldn't refuse, he had to get things done.

When Wei Caiwei took the needle to collect the money and bid farewell, Luo Longwen felt joint pain, especially his hands and feet eased a lot.

Wei Caiwei returned to the cabin. Ding Wu and the others had been waiting for a long time. Wei Caiwei told Luo Longwen's condition, "His gout is already very serious, and his joints in his hands and feet have been deformed.

Lu Ying said, "This is an opportunity. You can heal him and gain trust."

After nearly a month of sailing, Wei Caiwei would acupuncture Luo Longwen almost every day. The relationship between the two is not close, but they have become acquaintances.

The big ship arrived in Zhenjiang on a rainy night. Wei Caiwei was awakened by the sound of a gong in the middle of the night. The boatman knocked on the gong and shouted: "Japanese pirates! There is a pirate ship! Everyone shows the guys out!"

The author has something to say: hahahaha, everyone should be able to guess who these Japanese pirates are
