Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

"Besides, don't underestimate these young men. They hang around on the streets all year round. There are some things that your brothers can do better than you."

Sun Kangwang glared at him and said, "You are looking down on my brothers!"

"Whether you look down on them or not, you'll know by evening."

Wang Chengen smiled, put his hands behind his back, and left the Jinyiwei with those people.

Since those officials who participated in the rush to buy yesterday have been reprimanded by Wen Tiren, the situation in the markets is no longer hot today.

Some merchants moved goods into the city overnight, hoping to make a large profit, but they did not expect that the number of customers entering their stores decreased significantly.

Moreover, these people were no longer as generous as they were yesterday when shopping. Not only were they picky, they also bargained hard for every item.

This instantly shattered their dreams of getting rich.

Some people who wanted to take this opportunity to stock up and make some extra money, seeing this scene, quietly put the money back home.

Thousands of temporary Jinyiwei workers wandered around the city with two taels of silver, looking for opportunities to make more money.

"Brother Hedong, what the hell is going on here? If we knew how to do business, why would we have to run errands for the Jinyiwei?"

A man with a scar on his face looked at the silver in his hand and shook his head helplessly.

The man he called Hedong Brother glanced at him and said, "Old Ding, are you stupid? How do we make a living?"

Scarfaced Old Ding said unconvincedly, "Does it have anything to do with the present? Or can eavesdropping make these two taels of silver more valuable?"

"follow me!"

He Dong looked at where they were, smiled mysteriously, and then ran towards a large mansion.

When he reached the door, he knocked on it twice gently.

Soon, the door opened and an old man poked his head out.

Old Ding looked at Hedong talking to the old man for a while in confusion, and then he saw Hedong take out a piece of silver from his pocket and stuff it into the old man's pocket.

After the courtyard gate was closed and Hedong came back, Lao Ding asked in confusion.

"What did you just say to him? Why did you give him the money?"

He Dong smiled and waved his hand: "Don't ask yet, you will know later."

After a cup of tea, Lao Ding was brought by Hedong to the outside of Zhengyang Gate, and after many turns he entered a shop.

When they came out again, there was a sandalwood box in Hedong's arms.

They returned to the house again and knocked on the door. The old man welcomed them in happily.

"Little brothers, you are finally back!"

"The old man just told our master what you said, and he kept muttering that the old man shouldn't have let you go!"

He Dong patted the box in his arms and said, "We are going to get the treasure for your master. Don't worry, I guarantee you will get your reward later!"

Led by the old man, they came to a study.

When I pushed the door open, I saw a middle-aged man in his forties sitting behind the desk.

The old man saluted the man respectfully.

"Master, Brother Shui and the others are back!"

Hedong stepped forward and clasped his fists: "Shui Hedong, hello to Master Liu! This is my brother, Ding Xiu!"

Mr. Liu looked up at them, his eyes filled with anticipation.

“Brother Shui, the housekeeper has already told me, is that thing really as magical as you said?”

Shui Hedong confidently took the box out of his arms, put it on the table and opened it. Six round pills appeared in front of everyone.

He pointed at the pill and said, "Master Liu, do you know where this comes from?"

Mr. Liu shook his head.

Shui Hedong then said, "To be honest with you, Master Liu, this is the elixir that was passed down from our ancestors!"

"This pill is made from over a hundred kinds of rare medicinal materials, including thousand-year-old ginseng, deep-sea dragon marrow, hundred-year-old ganoderma, and ambergris. It took ninety-nine eighty-one days to make the pill!"

"Legend has it that seven pills were made that year, and the King of Pills was presented to Taizu."

Having said that, he paused and asked seriously.

"By the way, do you know who Taizu is?"

Master Liu's face darkened instantly: "Little brother, I am impotent, not stupid!"

Shui Hedong laughed: "I was just joking with you, please forgive me."

"Not only did Taizu live to the ripe old age of 71, he also had 26 sons and 16 daughters. This is known to everyone in the world."

"The greatest contribution is these medicinal pills in front of you!"

"One pill can transform you into a completely new person, full of energy!"

"Of course, if I just say this, Mr. Liu may not believe it."

"How about you take one pill first, and if you are satisfied, we can talk about the price later?"

Mr. Liu looked at the black meatballs in the box, carefully took one out, and put it under his nose to sniff it.

A strong smell of herbs wafted to his face, which made him believe Shui Hedong's words a little more.

"Can you really try?"

"You can try! But you have to pay extra! Try it first and then buy it, fifty taels of silver per pill. If you buy it directly, it will be ten taels of silver per pill!"

Ding Xiu, who had been silent all this time, nodded decisively.

At this point, no matter how stupid he was, he knew what Shui Hedong wanted to do.

Relying on the information purchased, he can sell the boss what he wants. It’s that simple!

Mr. Liu was stunned: "Why?"

Ding Xiu answered without thinking: "The forty taels are compensation for us two brothers, because your distrust has hurt us a lot!"

Chapter 225 We Like Shameless People

Try before you buy, six pills are three hundred taels.

But if you don't try and buy them directly, six pills will only cost sixty taels of silver.

The difference is so great that most people would probably choose to try it first.

After all, even if it’s expensive, it’s better than buying a fake product.

But Mr. Liu smiled and nodded, then pulled the old man next to him to his side and handed the pill to him.

The old man was stunned at first, then he understood his intention.

This is to let him try the medicine!

Well, with Mr. Liu's wealth, how could he rashly eat something brought by others, especially since it was a pill.

The old man looked at Ding Xiu and Shui Hedong, feeling a little uneasy.

But when he saw Shui Hedong quietly extending three fingers to him, he made up his mind and put the pill into his mouth.

As his throat rolled, Master Liu's expression became nervous, and he was always paying attention to the changes in his body.

Especially those eyes, staring at the old man's lower body.

The old man is the housekeeper of the Liu family. He is already over sixty years old this year. Although it cannot be said that he has a rare longevity in this era, considering the living conditions of a servant, he has long lost his human ability.

In other words, this master and servant actually share the same suffering.

Time passed bit by bit, and after about half an incense stick of time, the old man's face suddenly turned red.

His pants also began to jump little by little, and the amplitude became larger and larger.

A hint of joy flashed in Mr. Liu's eyes.

Although what Shui Hedong said sounded magical, about longevity, many children and good fortune, he did not take it to heart.

He is not a fool. How could there be such a magical elixir in the world?

All he wanted was just to regain his glory!

Although he was just a businessman without any achievements, he had seven or eight concubines at home, which was the main reason why he became inhumane at such a young age.

Suddenly, the housekeeper said with a red face and panting.

"Master, I can't stand it anymore!"

Mr. Liu smiled and waved to him.

"Go ahead. Since you have worked so hard for the Liu family for so many years, Cui'er will give it to you as a reward!"

The butler was overjoyed upon hearing this and fled from the study.

Not long after, strange noises were heard from the woodshed not far from the study.

The noise lasted for a full quarter of an hour before it finally ended!

During this time, Mr. Liu kept listening with his ears perked up. The more he listened, the brighter the smile on his face became.

Until the end, he couldn't help but applaud.

"The two little brothers are indeed extraordinary, and this medicine is even more extraordinary!"

"I have consulted countless doctors over the years, but I have never seen such a powerful elixir."

"I bought all these pills!"

All that remains is to exchange money for goods.

When Ding Xiu and Shui Hedong walked out of Liu's house with three hundred taels of silver, they looked at each other and then burst into laughter.

After walking a long way, Ding Xiu asked, "Brother, what's going on with that pill?"

"What else could it be? It's just some tiger and wolf medicine!"

"But didn't Mr. Liu say that he had consulted many doctors over the years?"

"Those amateur doctors? It's not that I look down on them, but even if I give them the prescription, they may not dare to prescribe it to that Liu!"

"Why?"

Seeing Ding Xiu's face full of curiosity, Shui Hedong said with a smile.

"This pill contains three extremely poisonous substances! If you take out any one of them, even a grain of rice can kill a person!"

Ding Xiu shuddered.

Damn it!

I remembered!

The owner of the shop they entered earlier was a master of poison!

Legend has it that he was an abandoned disciple of Mount Longhu...

Situations like theirs happened at the same time in different corners of the capital.

Without exception, these non-staff members of the Jinyiwei, either working in groups of three or five or alone, used their past expertise to rapidly increase the amount of money in their hands.

Making money is actually not difficult.

The difficult part is making money consistently over the long term.

It's easy to make two dollars out of ten dollars.

But it is very difficult to make 200,000 yuan from one million yuan!

Although both are increases of 20%, the difficulty is completely different.

So, in the morning, nearly 70% of the nearly 1,000 temporary workers earned some money to varying degrees.

They would buy things from Chaoyangmen Street and then run to Zhengyangmen to sell them.

Or they might find some jade ornaments that they couldn't identify from ordinary people's homes and sell them in pawnshops.

What's worse, some people even started to make a living as a Didi driver...

In short, although they have never played online games, they have done almost all the activities in online games!
