46　　"Captain, Lu San wants to see you!"

　　"Lu San?"

　　Zhao Xun frowned slightly: "What is he doing here? Didn't he say his legs were broken?"

　　After hearing this, the waiter said, "He brought something, a jar of good wine and two roast chickens, saying it was for the thing you promised him last time."

　　Zhao Xun thought for a moment and said, "Let him in."

　　Lu San had been serving me well these days, so I asked him to give me two taels of silver so that I could help him run a fish stall.

　　But his leg is broken, why is he still studying this?

　　As I was thinking this, Lu San came over, nodding and bowing.

　　"Big bow! This is a gift to you."

　　As he said this, he put down the jar of wine and the roast chicken.

　　"Tell me something."

　　Lu Sanpei smiled and said, "Captain, do you remember what you promised me last time? Here are two taels of silver."

　　Zhao Xun glanced at the silver on the table and said with a smile: "Lu San, your legs and feet are making things difficult for me, aren't they?"

　　"Yes, Captain, you are right. I was just thinking of discussing this with you. I have a good brother who really wants to join our fishing stable. Can you give him my place?"

　　"That won't do."

　　Zhao Xun shook his head: "No, no, there is no such rule."

　　"Captain, please be flexible..."

　　Lu San begged, and Zhao Xun shook his head and weighed the silver on the table.

　　After begging for a long time, he finally gave in.

　　"Hey, Lu San, it's you, right? Here, I'll give you an extra pound and I'll do it for you."

　　"Ah, this…"

　　"It's difficult? It's okay."

　　"No, no, it's not difficult, it's not difficult!"

　　"Then I'll wait for your letter."

　　"Um."

　　Zhao Xun threw two taels of silver to Lu San, who left with his stick. Looking at his departing figure, Zhao Xun smiled and said, "You can make an extra tael of silver by reselling it."

　　Lu San rushed home.

　　Lu Qin asked, "How is it?"

　　Lu San said: "The price has gone up. That Zhao guy asked us for an extra ounce of silver, otherwise he wouldn't do it for us!"

　　"What? We asked for Chen Sanliu and Sanliang, and gave them all to him?"

　　Lu San said: "Haha, the wool comes from the dog, I will go find Chen Sanliu."

　　...

　　"That's not right, Brother Lu. We agreed on three taels of silver. It's not good for you to raise the price."

　　Chen Sanliu obviously didn't want to give money.

　　Lu San said: "Okay, I can't do this, you figure it out yourself, I'll return the money to you!"

　　"Tsk~"

　　Chen Sanliu frowned, thought about it, went home to look for it, and only found one tael and eight cents, then gave it to Lu San and said, "That's all, brother Lu San, my family's savings are all gone!"

　　Hearing this, Lu San said, "Don't worry, I can't cheat you!"

　　Lu San left and returned home smiling. This time he even asked for eight more cents of silver, so it wasn't a loss at all.

　　"Home, get me some wine, cook some good food, buy a roast chicken, let's have a good lunch at noon and take a nap in the afternoon. I'm going to find Zhao Xun."

　　After saying this, he gave Lu Qinshi two coins of silver.

　　"Okay, boss, I'll drink with you today."

　　...

　　At this time, in the fish pen, Zhao Xun was drinking the wine sent by Lu San and eating roast chicken. Suddenly, he saw a figure walking from a distance and soon came closer. It was Wu Zhong.

　　Zhao Xun stood up immediately: "Brother Wu, why are you here? Come and sit down!"

　　Wu Zhong looked at the roast chicken and wine on Zhao Xun's table and said, "You live a very comfortable life."

　　"Wu Ang, you are joking. Who are you today?"

　　"Oh, aren't we going to hire two guys for our fish stall? I've recruited them and will have them come to you tomorrow to register. Please take care of them."

　　"ah?"

　　Zhao Xun was stunned. Wu Zhong seldom interfered in matters such as recruiting, as he was the one who made the decisions.

　　"Why, is there a problem?"

　　Wu Zhong looked at Zhao Xun.

　　Zhao Xun immediately smiled and said, "No problem. What can go wrong with what Wu Ge asked me to do? Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of it for you."

Chapter 60 Dog bites dog

　　In the afternoon, Chen Jie listened to Doctor Bai talk about a prescription called: Baihu Decoction!

　　This prescription is very effective and is the best prescription for treating high fever in children.

　　However, this prescription is also very dangerous. Due to its strong medicinal properties, there is a certain probability that it will cause the death of children.

　　Therefore, you should be more cautious when prescribing this prescription. By the way, Doctor Bai also used this to tell a story about a doctor who did not treat himself.

　　It is said that there was a famous doctor who was very good at treating patients. All he needed to do was to take some medicine and the disease would be cured immediately. Later, when he was old, he had a son. One day, his youngest son fell ill.

　　His family asked him to prescribe some medicine for treatment, but no matter how many times he took it, it didn't work.

　　Finally, the family had no choice but to take their youngest son to the pharmacy next door. The doctor there was not as good as the famous doctor in terms of medical skills.

　　But the child was cured with just one dose of medicine.

　　Later, the doctor next door became curious. His medical skills were not as good as those of the famous doctor, but he could cure the disease. Why couldn't the famous doctor cure it?

　　So he went to the door and asked for help.

　　The famous doctor sighed and replied: "If it is not a biological child, there must be Baihu Decoction!"

　　And the medicine that cured his child was this Baihu Decoction!

　　After listening to Doctor Bai's philosophical story, Chen Jie memorized the Baihu Decoction formula in his heart:

　　[Baihu Gao knows licorice stems. This prescription can clear up the heat in the Qi. If you have thirst, sweat, and a strong pulse, add ginseng to generate Qi and body fluids! ]

　　After learning a prescription, Chen Jie said goodbye. Wu Hong was not in a good mood. Ever since that chivalrous man left, he seemed to be worried.

　　Chen Jie said hello to him and left the Bai family. He told Doctor Bai that he might come a little late tomorrow and he had to report to the fish pen first.

　　Doctor Bai said, "It's okay, go ahead."

　　When he left the Bai family, it was already late, probably around three in the afternoon. He wanted to go home to pick up Su Yunjin and her sister, and go into town to buy chickens and ducks.

　　He was walking home as usual, but when he passed by Lu San's house, he saw a group of people gathered there to watch the fun.

　　This has become an old custom in the village. Whenever something happens in someone's family, the villagers will gather around to watch the fun, eat melons, and have a great time.

　　Chen Jie had nothing to do, so he went to the courtyard wall and saw Lu San and Chen Xiong rubbing against each other inside.

　　Lu Qin was even more ferocious. She grabbed Chen Sanliu's sparse hair and refused to let go.

　　Chen Sanliu cried out in pain: "Be gentle, be gentle, don't pull at the front, pull at the back, there are only a few left! Ouch..."

　　Looking at such a fierce dog-eat-dog scene, Chen Jie asked curiously.

　　"Why did the fight start?"

　　"Ah, Brother Jiusi, you're back early today."

　　"That's right, Lu San agreed..."

　　After hearing what the villagers said, Chen Jie finally understood that this matter was related to him.

　　In the morning, Lu San asked Chen Sanliu for money. He asked for one tael and eight cents, intending to give an extra tael of silver to the captain, and keep the other eight cents for himself.

　　As a result, when I went to deliver the money this afternoon, I was directly rejected by the big ship captain.

　　This matter has not been done!

　　Okay, if you don't want to do the job, then don't do it. Just return your money.

　　Chen Sanliu and his family came to Lu San to ask for their money back, but in the end, they only got back 4 taels and 6 cents, which was 2 cents short.

　　The two coins were used to buy wine and meat for Lu and his wife at noon.

　　Chen Sanliu and his family just couldn't accept it. They didn't do the job for me, but they used my family's money to buy wine and meat. How can you, Lu San, be so shameless? Pay me back!

　　Lu San was unhappy at the time. I have a limp, but I have been running around for you. What's wrong with me spending some of your money? Can't I enjoy myself?

　　Chen Xiong: You're enjoying yourself even though you didn't do anything for my family. Go to hell with you!

　　Go up and use an electric cannon!

　　Even though Lu San had a lame leg, he was no less tough than Chen Xiong. He pounced on Chen Xiong and the two of them started rolling around.

　　Chen Sanliu wanted to help, but was grabbed by Lu Qinshi by the hair.

　　They rolled into a ball and started fighting!

　　It's really a dog-eat-dog situation.

　　Seeing the two groups fighting, the neighbors around them just watched the fun but did not try to stop the fight. Both Chen Sanliu and Lu San were not popular in the village.
