I live in Dayu Changsheng

Chapter 12, the building collapsed
After Wang Dachui left.

Fang Xueshi came in: "Brother Rui, what's the matter, I seem to be listening, you two had a quarrel?"

"It's okay, some small misunderstandings, just make it clear."

When Fang Rui said he was tight-lipped, he was tight-lipped.

Well, in fact, it is best to stop this matter with him. If Fang Xueshi is told, it will bring some unnecessary risks.

Seeing what Fang Rui said, Fang Xue nodded and stopped asking.

After teasing Fang Ling at home for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Fang Rui took the medicine bag and got up: "Mom, it's almost time, I should go out."

"Hey, go, be careful all the way." Fang Xueshi sent out the door, seeing Fang Rui's back disappeared before turning back, waiting for him under the dim oil lamp while doing some needlework.

……

black market.

Fang Rui rented a booth as usual, selling the old-fashioned 'hemostatic powder' and 'health medicine' finished medicine packs.

His business, not to mention how prosperous it is, but people come to buy it from time to time, and there is an endless stream.

In fact, counterfeit products have long appeared in the black market.

To put it bluntly, there is a threshold for the finished drug business, but it is not too high.

Ordinary people can't imitate it.

But for the rich and powerful, it's just a matter of thinking. If you find a similar doctor, you can develop similar things, or even better finished medicines.

Of course, it was precisely because of this that no big shots were eyeing him.

If it's soap, perfume, etc., no matter how low-key Fang Rui is, he may still be in trouble—those rich and powerful are not fools, so they naturally have discernment. Things like that won't sell much in Fang Rui's hands, but if Taking advantage of their ways to spread out is huge profits.

Therefore, what business can be done and what business can't be done, he also has a steelyard in his heart, and he is quite self-aware.

anyway.

Although big households in the city can produce finished medicines, they don't care about the little troubles in the black market at all. If they really want to do it, they just order the pharmacies below to add a category of finished medicines.

Therefore, the imitations that appear on the black market are basically doctors like Fang Rui.

but.

As the first person to eat crabs, Fang Rui was the first to sell finished medicines, and he had never heard of any accidents with the medicines he sold. He has a good reputation, and his business is naturally much better than other companies in the black market.

He is also an entry-level martial artist, with such a profit, he will not be targeted, which represents stability and is another big advantage.

In short, Fang Rui's current finished medicine business is not bad.

Soon.

"Come here?"

Gao Yao wandered over, said hello, sat down next to him, and put the fake cheats in his arms aside.

These days, he and Fang Rui are regular customers in the black market. They have met many times, greeted and chatted.

"How's business?"

"It's okay." Fang Rui cherished words like gold.

"Hey, it's useless to ask, you can tell by looking at it. I can't do it..."

Gao Yao cursed: "Damn, these people are getting harder and harder to fool..."

"Your secret books, as long as there are fewer mistakes and omissions, they will not reach the point where they are now...Stop selling fake things and accumulate some virtue!"

Fang Rui remembered the scene when this guy sold cheat books to him when he first came to the black market, and couldn't help but complain.

"Look at what you said, I want to sell some cheat books of high-quality goods, can I get them?" Gao Yao groaned.

Fang Rui suddenly remembered a joke.

Q: Why do you make fake money?
A: Because I can't make real money.

'It's the same thing. '

Fang Rui was amused, shook his head and smiled.

Here, Gao Yao opened up the chatter box: "As for, you said that I harmed people, I don't admit it!"

"Those poor ghosts are always whimsical, imagining that they are talented, successful in martial arts, revenge on this, knock that down, and they can't recognize what kind of thing they are..."

"Just a few big money cheats, don't they know it's fake? Of course they know! It's just that they don't want to believe it, and they lie to themselves... Or, with the idea that they are the protagonist in the story book, they want to hit the big luck ...But there will be no pies in the sky, only hail!"

"Is it all my fault?"

Fang Rui was silent.

These words are also true.

"anyway,"

Gao Yao continued: "Even if there are secret books passed down, when practicing martial arts, you have to cooperate with medicinal diet and medicinal baths. The poor can't provide them at all, and there is no such condition."

"Those people bought fake cheats from me. They can't practice anyway. It's easy to say. If they are real things, they practice them accordingly, and it will be harmful! Without nourishing medicine, premature aging and life loss are good!"

"I'm also doing good deeds, right?" Gao Yao said shamelessly.

"This……"

Fang Rui Gebu's face twitched slightly.

Not because of this guy's thick skin.

But...

He originally thought that Gao Yao's 'fake cheats' were half-truths and half-false, but he didn't expect that this guy directly admitted that he couldn't practice. I'm afraid there were nine false ones and one true one, and it was not impossible to even make up the whole article.

Simply excessive.

However, what Gao Yao said is not without reason.

In this world, the more desperate the bottom people are, the more they yearn for strength, but is it easy to change their fate against the sky?

As the saying goes: Poor culture and rich military is no joke.

Martial arts practice, in the case of secret books, indeed need to cooperate with medicinal baths, medicated diet, and supplement nutrition... Even if these are not mentioned, the appetite of martial arts practitioners is not something that ordinary families can afford.

That is to say, Fang Rui has a face plate, which can be improved directly by the robbery point, otherwise, with the original situation of the Fang family, it would not be able to support him at all.

After talking for a while, Gao Yao got up, ready to continue selling fake cheats.

His family's life is not easy, they have to make a living!

"Wait."

Fang Rui called out to Gao Yao: "I have a proposal: I will provide the source of goods, and you will sell the medicine packs for me, and you will get [-]% of the profit, do you want to do it?"

He thought very clearly that it was necessary for him to subcontract the sales. The neighbors couldn't do it. They knew the basics too well and were prone to accidents. On the other hand, this guy he knew in the black market was very suitable.

There are many reasons for doing this:
Now, there is a black market peddling every other day, going out too frequently, and there is a risk of being noticed by neighbors...

Going out at night, no one is watching at home, not at ease...

Dealing with people when impatient to peddle, wastes time, wastes energy...

This requires a middleman to share part of Fang Rui's work and risk.

As for letting Gao Yao sell the goods, would it be too much to give him [-]% profit?

This is not the case.

To put it bluntly, the two of them were just casual acquaintances. To this day, the two of them haven't even seen each other's true faces. They gave too little and couldn't keep people.

Furthermore, in terms of talent for business and sales, Fang Rui thinks that he is not as high as this one—this person talks nonsense when he sees people, he talks nonsense, he is very talkative, and he can support his family by selling fake cheats. Let this person sell finished products Medicine, maybe it can give him a surprise.

Maybe, after the cooperation, he not only saves energy and avoids all kinds of troubles, but also earns as much as before because of the increase in supply volume and shipment volume!
This is very possible.

"Do it, you'd be a fool if you don't." Gao Yao said immediately.

He is also excited.

What is the purpose of going to such lengths to make friends with Fang Rui?
Isn't it just: fancy Fang Rui's potential, and hope to support him and give him a chance when Fang Rui develops?

I just didn't expect the return on this investment to be so fast.

"Okay, it's a deal."

Fang Rui and Gao Yao discussed it: "...Then we will supply you once every three days. At that time, it will happen to settle the bill once and share the profit once. If the sales are good, we can increase the supply. "

He was not afraid of Gao Yao's betrayal, so he took the medicine and ran away.

After all, on the one hand, there is a steady flow of profits, and on the other hand, it is a small profit at a time. Not to mention offending him, it is just a small profit from fly meat...

Which is more important, Fang Rui believes that Gao Yao can still figure it out.

Taking a step back, even if Gao Yao lost his mind and really betrayed and ran away, he would only lose three to five days of medicine packs, which he could afford.

It's worth the price to get a thorough understanding of a person.

……

From this day on, Fang Rui and Gao Yao started to cooperate, just as he expected, after the cooperation, the profit is not less than what he did alone before, but more.

According to his estimation, the profit of about two taels of silver in the previous month has climbed to more than three taels of silver after the cooperation, and there is still an upward trend. It is estimated that it will stabilize to four taels of silver in the end.

But that's about it, after all, the plate is only that big.

Fang Rui was content.

Of course, this level of profit can still be protected with his currently exposed ninth-rank strength, so it's not a big problem.

With the continuous supply of money from the finished medicine business, the Fang family's quality of life has improved a lot. It seems that before the catastrophe, the staple food has changed from basically all sorghum noodles to half sorghum noodles and half stick noodles.

——In this age of catastrophe, it is already quite rare.

This is when Fang Rui has broken through the eighth-grade Yijin, and his appetite has greatly increased. In addition, the Fang family can even improve the food every now and then, buying a catty or two of eggs to supplement nutrition.

The Fang family kept a low profile and made a fortune in silence.

The life of the neighbors around them is still as difficult as ever. Many families can hardly guarantee one meal a day.

However, this does not include the Wang family.

Fang Rui paid close attention and observed that the life of Wang Dachui's family has improved a lot. Compared with other families who are full of food, his family can at least have enough to eat.

'It seems that the Wang family is still on the road of no return! ' he thought to himself.

Of course, it's none of his business.

Fang Rui didn't have the idea of ​​stepping on it, but just lived his own life with peace of mind, keeping a low profile as much as possible.

……

The peaceful days passed like a fleeting moment, and in the blink of an eye, another half a month passed.

Until this day——

Dangdang!

"Everyone come out!"

Dangdang!
A gong sounded from outside, making Fang Rui frowned, knowing that something had happened.

"Brother Rui, what's the matter?" Fang Xueshi took Fang Ling's hand and asked in the main room.

"Mother, Ling'er, you stay at home, I'll go take a look." Fang Rui confessed and went out.

When he came outside, many people had already surrounded him, but this time they were not outside the old Chu's house - the old Chu's house had already been destroyed.

This time it is the Wang family.

"Uncle Dashan! Sister Cuihua! Brother Maozi!" Fang Rui greeted him politely as always.

These neighbors also responded enthusiastically, but there was a little embarrassment on their faces.

reason?

The Fang family's 'infectious disease' has been spreading for so long, and they haven't really seen anyone infected, even the San Niangzi's family who are closest to the Fang family, so they are not afraid.

It is rumored in private that the 'infectious disease' of Fang's family is not highly contagious, and only when they live together and are very close can they be infected, but ordinary contact is fine.

Without this factor, everyone is willing to get close to the Fang family.

——The Fang family’s medical skills are passed down to the family. Without the influence of external factors, these neighbors are of course willing to make friends with the Fang family. It's easy to talk, isn't it?
The embarrassment on their faces was naturally due to the estrangement of the previous period, and they were a little embarrassed.

Fang Rui knew it well, but he didn't care about the 'snobbery' of these people before.

He knows very well that it is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and what these neighbors did is understandable.

Of course, having said that, Fang Rui is not someone who 'repays evil with virtue'.

Since these neighbors have chosen to be indifferent, then he will not be open to heart, and these neighbors are at most casual acquaintances.

In fact, the Fang family has always been doing this. On the surface, they are polite to any of these neighbors, but they are actually independent and alienated.

"Third sister!"

Fang Rui came to the side, pinched his daughter's face, and looked at the third lady who was becoming more and more charming: "This is... what's wrong?"

"Something happened to the Wang family... Sigh, brother Rui, come and see for yourself!" The third lady sighed and moved half of her body away.

Fang Rui stood to the side, with a strong fragrance of orchids lingering on his nose. There is no perfume in this era, but the fragrance on San Niangzi's body is even more alluring than the top perfume in the previous life.

Let him wander involuntarily.

However, in an instant, his eyes became clear again.

"Fu Nuan Si **, the ancients did not deceive me... Or, find some time to appreciate the customs and culture of this era... No matter how bad it is, it's okay to buy one or two pretty little maids!"Just at this age, people are cheap and food is expensive, and it doesn’t cost much... Even, I heard that outside the county town, three to five catties of wheat bran can be exchanged for a daughter-in-law...'

'Ahem, think too far, keep a low profile, keep a low profile! '

Fang Rui restrained his distracting thoughts, collected his mind, and looked inside.

I see:

The Wang family: Wang Dachui, Wang Xiaochui, and Fang Ling were about the same age. Tie Zi, who was five or six years old, and Wang Tangshi were all bound behind their backs and knelt down.

Beside them, two officials in gray clothes with a large character 'poor' painted on their chests were rubbing their whips, eager to try.

"beat!"

At the very front, the head catcher in black clothes waved his hand.

Immediately.

The whips in the hands of the two soap officials fell down, whipping the Wang family screaming and crying, and the neighbors who were watching couldn't bear to turn their heads away.

'Sure enough, I saw him building a tall building, and I saw his building collapse! '

Fang Rui had a guess in his mind, and at the same time, he couldn't help but think of the old Chutou father and son, and sighed in his heart: "How similar!" '

'In this era, the government and gangs are two big mountains on the heads of the people! '

Neighbors are also talking in low voices.

"What did the Wang family do?"

"Even the children... this is really..."

"Shh, keep quiet!"

……

The Wang family members were beaten to pieces, and their bodies were dripping with blood.

"stop!"

The black-clothed headhunter waved his hand, took two steps forward, and clasped his fists in all directions: "Fathers and fellow villagers, the Wang family's father and son have unclean hands and feet, confiscating ore, making weapons privately, and selling them at high prices... This is against the government... ransacking the house... the whole family beats them. become a slave..."

The voice fell.

Immediately, two gray-clothed officials behind him went out, rushed into Wang's house like wolves and tigers, rummaged through boxes and cabinets, and after a while, they finally put a seal on the door.

In the end, the Wang family was ransacked, the house was seized, and the whole family was seized and taken away.

After the government officials left, the neighbors who were silent like cicadas dared to speak.

"I'm just talking about the Wang family, how come they've gotten better recently, it turned out to be like this... What audacity!"

"That's all for the father and son of the Wang family, they have to suffer for themselves, poor sister-in-law of the Wang family, and such a small little Tiezi..."

"Hey, if it weren't for being forced into that position, I really couldn't survive. Who would do this kind of business? They are all hard-working people!"

……

Or gloating, or sympathizing with pity, or hurting others...

There are so many different things.

Fang Rui's eyes flashed: "Sure enough, as I expected, the government didn't kill them all, but beat the Wang family into slaves, using waste!" '

"Father and son of the Wang family Sledgehammer and Little Hammer, I'm afraid they will enter the slave camp to make weapons...the slave camp in this world will not survive long..."

"As for Wang Tang's and Xiao Tiezi, most of them are for sale... Of course, it's not certain whether they can be sold, and the ending is not much better..."

However, it's none of his business, and I didn't bother to care about it, so I shook my head and went back to my home 'Caozhitang'.

……

For the next few days, the affairs of the Wang family were a topic of discussion among the neighbors. The third lady was well informed, and through her, Fang Rui also learned more news.

It turned out that the Wang family found a buyer through their relatives, but who knew that the buyer was the help of the government.

In order to gain a better future, the buyer reported the Wang family and the relatives of the Wang family, so that the Wang family and the relatives of the Wang family were beaten into slaves.

"This is really..."

Fang Rui shook his head, thinking of 'Werewolf Killer': "Until the last moment, you will never know who is on the other side is a ghost!"

He completely gave up his plan to buy a pretty maid.

High profile is one aspect; on the other hand, Fang's house is too small now, if one or two people are added, no secrets can be hidden.

'Maybe later!I am immortal, my lifespan is endless, and what I can enjoy in this world will be enjoyed by me one day... The depression at this moment is for better release in the future...'

'No rush, no hurry, I'm not in a hurry, is it a hurry?No rush!Slow things down! '

Fang Rui's eyes wandered, he hugged Fang Ling who was rushing towards him, and scratched the little girl's nose.

At the threshold, under the afternoon sun, Fang Xue was sitting on a small stool, cleaning the soles of his shoes, and taking out needles and scissors from the old dustpan from time to time.

The warm wind passed through the hall, making the account books on the counter tremble.

The peaceful days are like wine, making Fang Rui slightly drunk.

'That's fine. ' he thought.
