Chapter 30 Removing the stitches and working together
When Jiang Xingchen woke up, he was already at the station of the Bauhinia Mercenary Group, and his second brother was guarding him.
Seeing him wake up, the second brother told him that Zhao Danqing left after sending him here, and told him that Zhao Family Pharmaceutical had obtained a five-year supply of healing medicine from the Seventh Army. Many things needed to be arranged, and he could not thank him in person.
, please forgive him! Moreover, Zhao Danqing had made a promise before leaving that Zhao Family Pharmaceuticals would try its best to purchase medicines containing vitality in the future, and give them all at the same price to him, without charging an extra copper coin.
When Jiang Xingchen heard this, most of the pressure on his body disappeared immediately. With the help of Zhao Family Pharmaceuticals, he didn't have to worry about not having enough medicinal materials. As for the problem of money, it was not that urgent.
But then, Jiang Xingchen felt a little embarrassed. Zhao Zixiang saved Mei'er, and he deserved his share of the favor. How could he let Zhao Family Pharmaceutical Company sell the medicinal materials to him at a fair price without earning a single copper coin?
As if reading Jiang Xingchen's thoughts, the second brother smiled and said: "You don't have to think too much. The Seventh Legion has been in constant friction with the Dongxuan Kingdom on the border these years. The Zhao Family Pharmaceutical Company can at least make a profit from the supply of healing medicines in the past five years."
A profit of more than tens of millions of topaz coins!"
"So much!" Jiang Xingchen was a little surprised. Ten million Huangjing coins combined with 500 million soft sister coins can make a net profit of almost 100 million a year. You must know that Zhao Family Pharmaceutical is not a large enterprise like those in his previous life.
If you go to a well-known pharmacy, you can count on how many people there are.
"No wonder several major pharmacies are competing for it, the profits are really too huge!" Jiang Xingchen sighed in his heart.
At this time, the door opened and Mo Hongxian walked in with a hearty laugh.
"Little brother, I just came back and I heard that you fainted again. This time you were so embarrassed, in front of the commander of the Seventh Army of the Empire..."
"Little brother, cough cough cough..." The second brother covered his mouth and coughed violently, his face turned red.
Jiang Xingchen's head was full of black lines and he said depressedly: "Sister Hongxian, can you change your name and stop calling me little brother?"
"Okay, little brother!"
"Pfft!" The second brother almost laughed, his eyes kept looking at Jiang Xingchen, his eyes were indescribably wretched.
Jiang Xingchen's eyes twitched twice, feeling like they were going to explode. He glared at his second brother fiercely: "What are you looking at? You look like my little brother!"
Mo Hongxian also made a serious face, waved her hand and slapped her second brother on the neck, scolding: "Get out of here!"
"Hey!" The second brother shrank his head, responded quickly, and ran out quickly.
After the second brother left, Mo Hongxian put away his joking expression and said: "Furongzhai and Cuiyuanlou can no longer withstand the pressure. They came to me yesterday and asked me to stand up to the nobles who were looking for them to buy the secret recipe.
"
Jiang Xingchen smiled and said: "These two families are quite shrewd... Sister Hongxian must not have agreed!"
"Nonsense!" Mo Hongxian glared at him and said: "The two of them obviously want to earn two more days of money, so they asked me to charge into the battle. Do you think I can agree... If I can bear it, how can I do it?
You need to sell the secret recipe and keep the water flowing for a long time! I am almost exhausted just helping you stop harassment in the past two days!"
When Jiang Xingchen heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved. He and Mei'er had been at peace these days, and it was all because of Mo Hongxian's secret action. It was not easy for a friend to do this!
Jiang Xingchen opened his mouth and wanted to say thank you, but he hesitated and still had no words. With their current relationship, saying thank you would actually distance them from each other.
"Sister Hongxian, send someone to find the owners of Furongzhai and Cuiyuan Building, and also call Sun Sanqiang!" Jiang Xingchen said after pondering.
"Huh?" Mo Hongxian looked at him doubtfully and asked, "Why, do you have any ideas?"
"Yes!" Jiang Xingchen nodded and said with a smile: "Come over to them and start cooperation again. It doesn't matter whether we have the original contract or not! They came to you because they were afraid that you would be held accountable if they came up with the secret takeaway recipe first...
When I come up with a new plan, they will definitely negotiate with you to terminate the contract."
"Okay!" Mo Hongxian nodded and agreed without any hesitation. Jiang Xingchen's various performances these days have made her involuntarily develop a sense of trust, and ever since Jiang Xingchen endured his heartbeat like a galloping horse, he persisted
After sewing up her wound, she regarded him as a true friend.
After going out to give orders to his subordinates, Mo Hongxian returned and asked, "Why did you still bring Sun Sanqiang with you in your plan this time?"
"Sun Sanqiang is a nice guy. He is my friend. I promised to help him!" Jiang Xingchen explained.
For a moment, Mo Hongxian seemed to know a little more about Jiang Xingchen's character. Meier was rescued in time. She knew that the carriage and subordinates arranged by Sun Sanqiang were crucial. But Jiang Xingchen did not mention this.
, just saying that Sun Sanqiang is his friend, this can reveal some of Jiang Xingchen’s character!
Mo Hongxian nodded and did not continue to ask. Jiang Xingchen then changed the subject: "Sister Hongxian! Show me your wound. I think the stitches can be removed."
"Oh!" Mo Hongxian sat next to Jiang Xingchen and lifted up the sleeve of his left arm, revealing his entire crystal white arm. There was no trace of the knotted muscles after martial arts training. If his upper arm hadn't been bandaged with linen, it would have been a shame.
Called perfect.
The last time the wound was sutured, Mo Hongxian's arm was covered with blood. Jiang Xingchen didn't pay attention to this. But at this moment, he was shaken by this arm and his breathing was slightly stagnant.
Mo Hongxian immediately noticed Jiang Xingchen's strangeness, grinned immediately, raised her right hand and pinched his chin, and said in a voice completely different from her usual: "Little brother, do your sister's arms look good?"
"Hiss!" Jiang Xingchen instantly shuddered, Mo Hongxian's whining voice made his hair stand on end.
"Hehe, what's that..." Jiang Xingchen smiled awkwardly and said something out of nowhere: "Sister Hongxian's arms should be left for Sister Wanrou to see!"
"Hmm! What did you say?"
Jiang Xingchen instantly felt the temperature in the room drop, couldn't help but shiver again, and quickly changed his words: "I wanted to ask, why is Sister Wanrou not here today?"
As he spoke, he reached out to untie the bandage on Mo Hongxian's arm to divert her attention.
"Wanrou is very busy right now. In the near future, the selection for the Imperial New Year Song and Dance Performance will begin. She is preparing for the dance!" Mo Hongxian explained.
"The singing and dancing troupe is performing!" Jiang Xingchen thought of Mei'er's sleep talk and said with some surprise: "Sister Wanrou is going to perform singing and dancing?"
In his understanding, Wanrou's background was profound, which was somewhat incompatible with her role as a song and dance performer.
"Why, is it weird?" Mo Hongxian frowned and said: "Sing and dance performances are entertainment projects encouraged by the empire. They are loved by nobles and commoners. If the New Year's performance is well received, the nobles can also be rewarded... Now even the empire
The academies all have special categories, and many nobles flock to them!"
Jiang Xingchen straightened his eyes. This was very different from what he had imagined. In his world, the status of ancient singers was very low, and they were all at the bottom of society. But in this world, they actually began to pay attention to the spiritual and cultural fields.
's development.
"If we hadn't known that there was still war, this would have been a peaceful show!" Jiang Xingchen sighed as the bandage was untied and he saw that the wounds inside were almost completely healed.
Jiang Xingchen asked someone to bring scissors to remove Mo Hongxian's stitches.
But Mo Hongxian seemed to be aroused by the topic just now, and continued to whisper: "Wanrou is the only daughter in the family, and her own physique is not suitable for martial arts training. As a girl, she doesn't know how to do anything else.
Development, so learning singing and dancing performances is her only way out... Moreover, this is also her dream since she was a child..."
Following Mo Hongxian's words, Jiang Xingchen's mood became heavy. His current identity is quite similar to Wanrou's. There is also only one person in the family. Once the elders leave, there will be earth-shaking changes, even for the nobles.
Identity is not protected...
The heavy topic made the atmosphere a bit solemn, and the room fell silent, with only the sound of scissors cutting the animal tendons.
Just when Jiang Xingchen removed all the threads, held Mo Hongxian's arm, and observed the eye of the needle. "Squeak!" The door opened, and the second brother led Sun Sanqiang, the owner of Furongzhai and Cuiyuan Building in.
"Boss! I haven't gone to find them yet, but they themselves... uh!" The words came suddenly, and the second brother stared at Mo Hongxian and Jiang Xingchen in a daze.
At this time, Jiang Xingchen was holding Mo Hongxian's arm and leaning his head towards her. Mo Hongxian, on the other hand, lowered his head and remained silent. There was nothing wrong with this situation.
Not only the second brother, but also several people behind him also had dumbfounded expressions on their faces, and they all froze on the spot.
At this moment, Mo Hongxian and Jiang Xingchen turned their heads at the same time when they heard the noise.
As soon as they saw their expressions, the two knew what was going on. Jiang Xingchen hurriedly pulled his hands away, while Mo Hongxian hurriedly put down his sleeves.
"Ahem! So what...I'm sorry, boss, I didn't pay attention, I bothered you..." the second brother said, turning around and leaving.
"Hundan, what do you mean by disturbing me?" Mo Hongxian Liumei stood up straight, jumped out, and slapped her second brother on the head: "What are you thinking about? Jiangling is taking out the stitches for me!"
"Yes, yes, brother Jiangling is treating the eldest brother's wound, I was overthinking it..." He said this, but the eyes of the second brother were shining brightly, and he just wanted to carve the word "Bagua" on his forehead.
"What kind of expression are you making? Are you forcing me to go crazy?" Mo Hongxian gritted her teeth and her eyes could spit out fire.
How dare the second brother stay? He jumped faster than a mouse and disappeared without a trace.
When Mo Hongxian saw her second brother running away, she turned around and stared at Sun Sanqiang and the others.
The three of them were so frightened by her that they couldn't help but shudder, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Captain Mo, please come to us..."
After hearing this, Mo Hongxian finally recovered, waved her hand and closed the door forcefully, inviting the three of them to sit together.
Not long after, several ecstatic exclamations came from the room: "What, it can increase the firepower... There are new dishes..."
