Chapter 23: The Inspectorate, the Qi Practitioner

The message arrived in three days. Chen Fu'an came here early in the morning. Seeing Fan Yu instructing his apprentice to bring out the prepared medicinal materials, he carefully checked it, and there was no shortage of them and the quality was excellent. He was a little disappointed, so he gave the bill of lading and rushed away with the vehicle.

Fan Yu was in a slight mood and lost money when his first business opened. Most of his former customers went to other pharmacies.

Could it be that you have to sit down and eat the whole country?

But the money is used like water, helping the servants and apprentices eat, drink, defecate, urinate, sleep, tea, pastries, monthly money, etc., and some necessary purchases are required.

He carefully sorted out and found that the cash amount was more than 34,000 yuan, which seemed to be a lot, but after calculating, he found that there were more places to use.

Why do I feel that after opening a pharmacy, I am even poorer.

Pharmaceutical shops like this are not suitable for medical treatment and sell medicinal materials for full-time customers. The source of customers is basically wealthy families and noble families. Occasionally, there are some individual customers and civilians, but the amount is not large and they cannot make a few copper coins.

When Partridge was there, he had his own channels. After all, as a alchemist among immortal cultivators, he was a high-tech talent. Whether it was a Qi training man or an immortal cultivator, or even a hundred students, high-ranking officials and nobles, they had contact with him.

But he is different. He has only been practicing for half a year and has not had any magical powers, let alone the golden and stone elixir.

I thought I had been studying medicine in my previous life and had been doing research for most of my life. I could earn some money by relying on this, but the reality was very cruel. Although the medical system in this world was not very developed, the medical system was particularly clever.

There are many types of medicinal materials, the properties of the medicine are clearly decomposed, and the corresponding cases are also very accurate. Doctors only need to prescribe the right medicine. Unless some rare and difficult diseases and common diseases can be cured, only in terms of cost issues.

In this month, the business was bleak and the expenses were more than the money paid. Fan Yu simply ignored it and studied hard. He read all the classics and scriptures left by Partridgezi to increase his lack of knowledge.

That day, an apprentice ran in panic: "Shopkeeper Fan, Shopkeeper Fan, it's not good... Someone from the yamen is here."

Fan Yu was shocked, put down the books and stood up, and was about to walk out. Suddenly, he felt that this scene was so familiar. He glanced at the apprentice. Could this guy have the potential of a second senior brother? I remember that it seemed that he was reporting the news last time.

In the lobby of the medicine shop, four or five were wearing brown clothes and cloaks on the outside. They stood there expressionlessly, and several apprentices were like quails, trembling.

Qi training man?

In Fan Yu's perception, these men not only dressed differently from what they had seen before, but also had a magnificent qi and blood, like a fiery fire, burning people's divine consciousness.

"boom"

As soon as they stepped in, the few soldiers held the hilt of the knife in their hands and glared at them all, and in an instant, the evil spirit crushed, as if they were about to chop and kill the next moment.

Several apprentices flipped their eyes and spit out, forming a pool of feces and urine. Suddenly, the stench filled and they fainted.

Fan Yu groaned, his face turned pale, but he gritted his teeth tightly, and after a while, he said: "A few people, I don't know what offended me or what crimes I have committed. Please tell me directly, so that I can understand it in my heart."

"You are Fan Yu?"

"It's right here, who is from your yamen?"

The people laughed 'puff' and looked at Fan Yu jokingly: "I don't even know my identity. How did you become a member of the immortal cultivation? Queqiaozi looked quite clear about how he did such a confused thing."

When Fan Yu heard this, he was shocked and suspicious, and he really couldn't guess their identities.

Those people looked at Fan Yu, not as if they were fake, they really didn't know their identity. They were a little ridiculous and a little bored, and waved their hands: "I won't talk nonsense to you, we are third-class inspectors in the South Inspection Office of Naicheng. Several nearby streets are within our inspection scope. All Qi training practitioners and immortal cultivators in Beijing must report to the case."

"I'll ask you why you open a store here but don't go to the inspection department to report your identity?"

Identity report?...Fan Yu was confused, but the inspector heard from Queqiaozi once say something, and he had some impression.

The Great Xia Dynasty had strong control over practitioners, including the two major yamen: the Governor and the Inspection Office. The Governor was mainly external and belonged to the super-violent organization to deal with sudden and bad events; the Governor and the Inspection Office internally controlled and dispatched all movements of the practitioners.

In all major yamen, once there is an incident of a practitioner, it will be reported to the two major yamen, and they will be responsible for handling it.

"Living in Beijing, unless you are a black householder, if you want to open a store and do business, you must report to the inspection department and undergo regular inspections... Not only have you not reported to the inspection department, you are afraid that the inspection department will not know which direction the inspection department is heading, right?"

What else can I say, apologize.

"I was negligent. I've been busy recently and I've forgotten this matter. I have to bother several people to come and remind me. I'm really sorry."

Fan Yu hurriedly greeted them and invited them to the living room for tea.

"There is no need to drink tea...Don't stick it around, come with us."

“Where to go?”

The man rolled his eyelids and said sarcastically: "Of course it's the inspection department. Do you want to invite you to have tea? My brother has not paid for a few meals, and he has to run to you in the middle of winter."

Well, I understand everything. Reporting the case is a reason, and I will come here to fight the autumn wind.

When Fan Yu heard this, he was the most familiar dialect in his previous life: "Several messengers, I'll go get something, please wait for a moment."

"Don't waste a few hours of time, I'm still busy."

The man was impatient.

Fan Yu went in the back, took out a hundred yuan ticket, thought about it and put it down, and took out a thousand yuan directly.

When I went out again, I saw the policemen's expressions unhappy, so I hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I'm really sorry. I'm a little busy today and I can't take it off... I don't think so. Several soldiers go to drink tea first, and I will pay the tea money. I will go to the inspection department to register and register it myself tomorrow so that I will not delay your time."

The men looked at each other, took the money bill and glanced at Fan Yu, and smiled and said, "One thousand yuan? Or are you immortal cultivators rich, like us Qi training men. If you have some money, who will not use it on them, they will be miserable. You immortal cultivators have to rely on filial piety. Who can reason about this?"

"Dele, since you are a sensible person, we won't make things difficult for you. I'll report it myself tomorrow. Don't let me go a few more. Then it won't be solved by money."

When he came, he was aggressive and murderous. When he left, he was full of smiles and his steps were light, leaving a few apprentices all over the ground.

Bah, a bunch of borers...

Fan Yu was angry, a thousand yuan, and he was so painful that he wanted to curse people. You should know that the earthquake half a year ago could support dozens of people in a large yard with two hundred yuan.

No wonder Taoist Master Queqiaozi always said that it is difficult to cultivate immortals, and it is even more difficult to cultivate immortals in the capital, and he is exploited by Qi training everywhere.

It was really uncomfortable to feel it myself today.

Looking at the apprentices on the ground, they were angry and didn't make a fuss. They shouted out the maids in the backyard to clean up and closed the door. They were closed today.
