Lady Wan Guan

Coming out of the weapons prison, Ji Yunchen said angrily: "If you ask me, just take those witnesses back to Dali Temple and torture them to see if they tell the truth."

Gu Zhou stopped and said, "Don't be impatient. Let them be complacent for a while and relax their vigilance. Anyway, it will take time for the mine to respond. What we need to investigate now is whether they concealed the amount of ore or stole the essence." Iron and fine steel, whether it is stolen ore or fine iron and fine steel, where has the missing part gone?”

Ji Yunchen was depressed: "The Zhenbei Army's problem has not been solved yet, and the Ordnance Supervisor is acting like this. If a war really breaks out, how do you think we will win? It's really chilling."

Gu Zhou stopped and patted him on the shoulder: "If you find a problem and solve it, everything will get better."

Ji Yunchen couldn't be as optimistic as Gu Zhouding, and the painful lessons from three years ago were still vivid in his mind.

"Really, nothing goes as planned."

Xu Jiang is dead, Dong Cheng has not been found, and the evidence of the Zhenbei Army's collaboration with the enemy has not yet been grasped. The truth seems to be right in front of us, but this layer of paper cannot be pierced.

A faint smile appeared on Gu Zhouting's lips: "The darkness before dawn is the most difficult, but the sun will always rise, right? You have to be patient."

Ji Yunchen nodded, just wait, one day, these monsters and monsters will show their true colors.

Jiang Wanning was not surprised when she received the news from Zheng Guan that Hu Bin and Feng Chao were dead. She had expected it. She wasn't worried that the clues would be lost. The focus of Gu Zhouting's investigation was not how Jia Liu died, but what was wrong with the weapons supervisor.

In the evening, Jiang Shi and Lin Ruoruo came back together, and Lin Ruoruo seemed unhappy.

Jiang Wan Ning asked Jiang Shi with her eyes. Jiang Shi spread his hands and he didn't know. He asked, but Lin Ruoruo ignored him.

Jiang Wan Ning asked her brother to leave first.

"Dr. Lin, are you experiencing any incurable disease?"

Lin Ruoruo shook her head: "I just found out today that the drug store has a meeting today. Several newly opened drug stores have been notified and sent people there. Sanxitang was the only one who didn't notify us. Our application for membership has been handed in long ago."

Jiang Wanning smiled and said: "What's the matter? If you are beautiful in the forest, you must be jealous. Let's see which medicine hall in the capital has a business that is better than our Sanxi Hall. I can only say that the current president is jealous of talents and is not a good person. People who do great things.”

"That's true, but the problem is, we can't join the association and are excluded. If they join forces to deal with us, such as controlling the medicinal materials and not giving us the goods, wouldn't we be blinded?"

"In fact, this kind of thing has already happened. The Bupleurum and Rehmannia glutinosa in our shop are almost gone. I asked Ah Ruan to find the medicinal materials dealer. The medicinal materials dealer replied that it was out of stock and asked us to wait, but Ah Ruan inquired , everyone else has their goods, but they don’t give it to us.”

"When did this happen?"

"Just a few days."

Jiang Wanning smiled coldly: "Since they won't provide the goods, let's start the medicinal materials business ourselves."

You have money but are you worried about not being able to get the goods? Isn't it enough to just ask the government for an approval?
  Jiang Wanning said it would be done and went to the Medical Office early the next morning to get the approval. The officials from the Medical Office promised well and asked her to get the approval in two days. As a result, when Jiang Wanning went back, officials from the Medical Department said that there were already more than a dozen medicinal material dealers in the capital and could not approve any more for fear of disrupting the market.

Who has ever heard that medicinal material dealers are still under control? Medicinal materials are not salt, tea, copper or iron, they are controlled by the imperial court.

Besides, didn’t we all agree the day before yesterday?

Jiang Wanning took out a few pieces of money and pushed them over: "I hope it's convenient for you."

The medical department official was very excited when he saw the figure on the money, but he didn't dare to ask for it because he said, "It's not that I don't want to help, it's because the higher ups have ordered that they won't be approved this year."

Can't be moved even by five hundred taels? An official from a small medical department has such a big appetite? Or is it someone deliberately trying to embarrass her?

When the matter failed to be completed, Jiang Wanning thought about it and went to Dali Temple.

After Gu Zhouting heard about it, he snorted and said: "That's nonsense. How could the Medical Department issue such a ridiculous article? I'm afraid you will be targeted. Don't worry. I'll ask someone to ask and find out what the problem is." Jiang Wanning said calmly: "I'm not in a hurry. If it doesn't work, I'll buy an approval document from the existing medicinal material dealer."

Just spend a little more money. She is not short of money now. Xiangyufang, Baicuilou, and Sanxitang are all making money, and there is quite a lot of money. Not to mention the daily income, there are thousands of taels.

Gu Zhouting: Uh...

Really rich.

"It's not necessary. If it doesn't work, I can just go and say hello and it can be done." If he can't handle such a small thing, his job as a minister of Dali Temple will be in vain.

"Then trouble your lord."

Gu Zhouting frowned: "If you and I say the word "trouble", wouldn't it be unfair?"

It was too late for him to be happy that she could come to him when she had something to do.

Jiang Wanning was speechless. The relationship between her and Gu Zhouting was too delicate now. She knew what he was thinking, but he didn't explain it. There was a layer of window paper between her.

However, if he really made his words clear, she would be the one to worry.

Did you agree? Still refused.

Although she was happy to be with him, liking and really being together were not the same thing.

After Jiang Wanning left, Gu Zhouting went into the palace and asked Doctor Yang from the Imperial Hospital to inquire.

Doctor Yang said: "This official really knows something about this matter. Dr. Jiang joined the Imperial Hospital and became the deputy judge as soon as he came. How many people in the Imperial Hospital have spent their whole lives and can't even become a doctor?" Can everyone not be jealous? I heard that Yuan Zhang originally wanted his apprentice Shen Yuyi to be the deputy judge, and he was waiting to report it, but Doctor Jiang interfered. "

Gu Zhouting understood that the Medical Department was originally affiliated with the Imperial Hospital. No wonder the Medical Department wanted to block Jiang Wan Ning. It must have been the envoy Zhang who let him know.

So Gu Zhou stopped and went back to check out the medicinal material dealers in the capital and then went to see Zhang Yuan envoy.

When Zhang Yuanzhang saw Gu Zhou stop to look for him, he felt panicked. Eight hundred thoughts flashed through his mind. What was the flaw in what aspect?
  Pretending to be calm on his face, he also smiled to greet him: "What kind of wind brought Mr. Gu here?"

Gu Zhouting smiled half-heartedly: "I don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Master Zhang, someone reported to Dali Temple that there is a problem with the medicinal materials imported from the Royal Hospital, so I have to come."

"How is it possible? The medicinal materials imported into the Royal Hospital have all passed the Ministry of Internal Affairs, with layer-by-layer supervision and customs inspection. There is absolutely no chance of any mistakes." Zhang Yuanzhi said firmly and confidently. Only he knew that he was already sweating on his back. .

"Really?" Gu Zhou stopped holding the tea cup and gently lifted the tea lid.

"If you don't believe me, just check it out."

"I heard that the largest medicinal material dealer in the capital is your nephew Zhang Jin, and the medicinal materials for the Imperial Hospital are also provided by Zhang Jin. Is this true?"

The fifteen buckets in Zhang Yuan's heart were no longer moving up and down, but were all thrown at the bottom of the well.

He responded bravely: "Sir, it is true that Zhang Jin is the nephew of the lower official, but his medicinal materials are the best and the prices are reasonable."

"Whether the price is reasonable and whether the medicinal materials are of the best quality are all easy to check. It just depends on whether they can withstand inspection."

Zhang Yuan made his scalp numb. This so-called rationality means that everyone turns a blind eye. The medicinal materials provided by Zhang Jin are indeed [-] to [-]% more expensive than those on the market. But if Dali Temple seizes this If the matter persists, even if he enriches himself, he will not be able to complain.
