Chapter 273 274 Collusion Between Government and Businessmen

Ah Wei pointed at a few gangsters who were looking at Zhaocai and were about to make a move: "Brother Zhaocai, these gangsters were hired by the Holy Hand Church across the street to cause trouble. The shopkeeper of the Holy Hand Church said that the old man diagnosed their financial path here."

The ruffian leader took advantage of his large numbers and threatened to attract wealth: "If you are wise, stay away, or I'll beat you too."

Zhaocai sneered, stepped forward and grabbed the hand of the gangster pointing at him, pinched the finger and pushed back, only to hear a click. The gangster's finger pointing at Zhaocai was broken, and other gangsters rushed over screaming. Help, he was beaten to the ground by the money-making tricks, and more and more people were watching, blocking the street.

At this time, Zhou Jia and several detectives also squeezed in and saw Mr. Wen and Awei. Zhou Jia saw that Mr. Wen's clothes were open, his hair was disheveled, and he looked embarrassed. He frowned and strode forward. Supporting Mr. Wen, he turned to the policeman behind him and said, "Catch them all."

Several policemen bowed and said, "Yes, sir." The policemen rushed towards the gangster, Awei and Zhaocai also ran over to help, and the young man retreated and got into the crowd.

Mr. Wen straightened his clothes and looked at Zhou Jia happily and kindly: "Xiao Xi, why are you here?"

Zhou Jia smoothed Mr. Wen's scattered white hair and complained with lingering fear: "You are the same, why do you come so far to come to the free clinic? What if something happens?"

Mr. Wen smiled cheerfully and said: "Ji people have their own destiny. Look, the incident just happened and you are here!"

Seeing that Mr. Wen's free clinic items were scattered all over the floor, Zhou Jia helped Mr. Wen pack up the pulse pillow, medicine box, and small table and bench and put them in his backpack: "Sir, why are they here to cause trouble? The Holy Hand Hall that Ah Wei said What’s going on again?”

Mr. Wen patted Zhou Jia and said, "We'll talk about it when we get back."

The police officers and Zhaocai quickly arrested the gangsters, tied them into a bunch and brought them to Zhou Jia, reporting: "Sir, what should we do with these people?"

"You send them to the government office first, and then go look around and have something to eat. I will follow my husband back to the place where his old man lives. We will meet at the gate of the county government office in the afternoon." Zhou Jia thought for a moment and said.

"Yes, sir." Several detectives led the gangster towards the county government office.

Zhou Jia helped Mr. Wen sit in the car, and Awei ran to sit next to Tiezhu to guide the way. The group walked towards the small courtyard where Mr. Wen rented.

Seeing Zhou Jia and the police officers leading the gangsters away, some people gloated and laughed, "It turns out that he is the grand master of the official family. Now the Holy Hand Hall has kicked the iron plate!"

One person sighed: "It's time for someone to take charge. The pharmacies in the county have been bullied by his family to the point of losing their livelihood. We can't even afford to treat patients."

The man who had been protecting Mr. Wen and Ah Wei just now sneered and said, "What's the use? In the end, it's not just officials protecting each other, hum! They're all the same." After saying that, he walked away.

One person wondered: "Isn't this person helping the doctor just now? Why aren't he with them?"

A middle-aged man standing next to him replied with some pity: "His name is Qi Zhanpeng. He is the predecessor of today's Holy Hand Hall and the young master of Qi's Medicine Hall. The three generations of the Qi family relied on the medicine shop handed down from their ancestors and dozens of acres of land at home. , Doctor Qi treated people at an affordable price and was dedicated, and the family lived a very comfortable life. Qi Zhanpeng was very smart when he was young, so Doctor Qi did not teach him the medical skills passed down from his ancestors, so he hired his husband to teach him at home. He misses him. After changing his career, he also expected to pass the Tongsheng Examination when he was eleven or twelve years old, but for some reason he failed to pass the Scholarship Examination several times. But he was young! The family also had enough money to support him, even if he took the examination a few more times It doesn't matter.

well! If this continues, the Qi family may really be able to change their family. Just a few months after Qi Zhanpeng passed the Tongsheng examination, Doctor Qi was sued to the Yamen, saying that he had killed someone. Doctor Qi was arrested and taken to the Yamen. I heard that he was used He made a lot of money, but eventually died of illness in prison. To this day, no one has found out who is right. Not long after Dr. Qi left, for some reason his family's medicine shop was taken over by the Holy Hand Church. Qi Zhanpeng was also disqualified from being a child. He lived with his widowed mother in a thatched shed outside the city. Now he makes a living by writing for people. "

The man sighed again: "Good people are not rewarded! Doctor Qi is really a good person. I don't know why he suffered such a misfortune."

An old man sighed: "Alas! It is said that the people should not fight with the officials, and the poor should not fight with the rich. Sometimes, taking a step back, the world is brighter, but Doctor Qi is still too upright!"

"Who says it's not the case? It's time for us to leave after the fun is over." Everyone sighed and scattered.

Mr. Wen led a few people across the street, walked into an alley, and came to the small rented courtyard. Mr. Wen smiled and said to Zhou Jia: "Coming out of Yunzhou, I met two businessmen on the road, talking about medical treatment in Daoleng County. Difficult, I followed them all the way to Leng County. I originally planned to stay in Leng County for a few days and then return to Yuncheng. After staying for a few days, I felt that it was too difficult for the people here to see a doctor. In addition to visiting doctors in this county, there is only one called Shengshoutang. In drugstores, there are many good and bad doctors, and misdiagnosis happens from time to time, so it has been delayed until now."

"No wonder I couldn't find any trace of you all the way. I even planned to send a letter to Yu'er to ask if you had returned to Yunzhou."

Ah Wei happily ran in and brought out a few bamboo chairs, then went to bring water and tea. When he saw everyone sitting down, he complained: "Master, it's a good thing you're here, otherwise the old master would have been killed by those dogs." The things were caught and chopped into pieces. Alas! You don’t know, the old man softened his heart when he saw that the common people couldn’t afford medical treatment. He subsidized the money he earned from treating diseases for those rich people to buy medicines for them. When he saw those people waiting in line at the Holy Hand Hall When the old man saw a doctor, he only prescribed cheap medicinal materials. There was no one in his shop. He said that the old man was ignorant, so he called those gangsters to make trouble, and even said that he would chop off the old man's hands and feed them to the dogs."

Seeing Ah Wei's angry expression, Zhou Jia thought about how those gangsters led people to cause trouble and blocked the street. The government didn't send any officers to ask about it. It seemed that Shengshou Medicine Hall and the magistrate of Leng County were really connected. .

Zhaocai patted Awei on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Awei, how did you learn Kung Fu? You can't even protect your husband. Is it because your brother Ruyi didn't teach you carefully?"

Ah Wei scratched his head and said, "It's none of Brother Ruyi's business. It's my fault that I became a monk halfway and learned like this without paying any attention." Ah Wei suddenly remembered Qi Zhanpeng who helped us, "Oh! Old lady, the favor that Brother Qi just helped us was... Those gangsters smashed up the letter-writing stall and kicked him in the feet. I went to see him and give him two plasters."

Mr. Wen remembered what Awei said and said to Awei: "Oh! He forgot about him when he was excited. Awei, please give him a few plasters from the bottom layer of the medicine box, and also Take the cough medicine in the house to his mother."

"Tie Zhu, after dinner, you go with Ah Wei for a walk to attract wealth and go to the street to ask for a table of food to be delivered."

Tiezhu and Zhaocai stood up, bowed and said, "Yes, sir."

Ah Wei pulled the two of them out with a happy look on his face.
