Chapter 1311 Use Your Wisdom!

The streets of Dongwu Street are very lively and noisy.

At two o'clock in the morning, Zhong Ziyu, dressed in a green shirt, walked into a medicinal materials store at the end of the street.

There were few people in the herbal medicine store at the moment, and the big shopkeeper in front of the hall did not move, but the little boy who followed him had already warmly greeted him, and he opened his mouth and asked: "What do you want to buy, sir?"

Zhong Ziyu looked at the names of medicines in all directions and said, "Rat poison."

The boy nodded, bent down and took out a small oil paper bag from the bottom of the cabinet, and handed it to the counter: "A bag costs five cents."

Zhong Ziyu reached for the small medicine bag, opened it, and spread out the white powder inside.

"Not enough," he said.

The young man was stunned for a moment and subconsciously said: "Don't worry, sir, don't think this is just a small amount, it is definitely enough. This powder is not dry. You mix it with water and pour it on the waterway. It will be there early the next morning." , I’m sure a whole nest of rats will be poisoned by you there.”

Zhong Ziyu said "tsk" and was too lazy to argue. He said directly: "Give me twenty packets of such small bags."

The young man looked a little embarrassed and explained: "I, I'm sorry, sir, you don't know, this rat poison is not only poisonous to rats, but also afraid of people eating it by mistake. Therefore, this kind of medicine is generally sold in pharmacies in a certain amount, one person. You can only buy two packs at most.”

Zhong Ziyu frowned: "A pack of ten coins, give me twenty packs."

The young boy was embarrassed: "This... this is really not possible. When we sell things here, we must keep a ledger. This ledger must be submitted to the Yamen for review every quarter. We don't dare to mess around."

Zhong Ziyu stopped looking at the boy and turned to look at the shopkeeper on the other side.

The shopkeeper was also paying attention here before. When he saw the customer looking over, he walked over and looked at the little boy.

The boy told the shopkeeper the situation in a low voice. The shopkeeper was also in a dilemma: "Sir, you don't know something. As for arsenic, weeds, rat poison, and other things that are harmful to humans, the yamen has set a certain amount. Not only our pharmacy, but also the entire Xijin The county is like this, not only Xijin County, but also the entire Xianyan Kingdom. Those who sell dangerous medicinal materials indiscriminately will be jailed. Besides, how big is your family? Where can I use twenty packs of rat poison? Erjin’s yard , this pack is enough. Even for people like the Sun family and Li family in our county, two packs are enough for a family. Otherwise, I will get you two packs and you can go back.

If the poison doesn't kill the mouse, why don't we try again tomorrow? "

Zhong Ziyu looked very unhappy: "How can there be so many rules for something worth a few cents?"

The shopkeeper laughed dryly: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, then... can I give you two packets?"

As soon as the shopkeeper finished speaking, the boy quickly and cleverly took out another bag.

The shopkeeper carefully wrapped the loose bag, then took the other bag and handed it to the guest: "Chenghui ten coins."

Zhong Ziyu took the two packets of medicine over without raising his eyebrows, and when he took out the money, he still looked unhappy: "There are not so many rules in the capital, but you have strict rules here." When the shopkeeper heard that this customer was from the capital, He immediately laughed: "It turns out he is a young master from the capital. That's no wonder. The capital is at the feet of the emperor. Naturally, everything can be said. But in our small place, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. What orders are issued from above? Just execute it however you want, but I dare not do it

A little violation, let alone any favors..."

Zhong Ziyu paid the ten cents: "If it's not enough, I'll buy it again tomorrow. Will you still sell it to me?"

The shopkeeper laughed and didn't agree, so he said: "Go slowly, go slowly."

Zhong Ziyu understood it at a glance and asked unhappily: "Is this the only pharmacy on your street?"

The shopkeeper immediately replied and said in a dismissive tone: "There is a medical center in the middle of the street, where you can turn into an alley. They also sell some medicinal materials on weekdays. There is also rat poison there."

Zhong Ziyu said nothing and turned around and left the drug store.

At the opposite corner outside the drug store, Liu Wei was leaning against the wall, waiting.

After Zhong Ziyu passed by, he handed her two packs of rat poison and shook his head.

Liu Wei held two packets of medicine between her fingers and raised her eyebrows: "Don't want to sell it?"

Zhong Ziyu nodded: "It's all the same. I say I can sell two packs at most."

Liu Wei opened the medicine package, assessed the quantity, and frowned: "To be enough, such a small package requires at least three hundred packages."

Zhong Ziyu took advantage of the situation and leaned against the wall next to him, calculating: "There are twelve drug stores and medical clinics in Xijin County. Each house buys two packs, which is only twenty-four packs. If you want to buy three hundred packs, at least It takes twelve people.”

"At the same time, the distribution of these twelve drug stores is too complex. It is a bit difficult to visit them all in one day."

"And each store received twelve people buying rat poison on the same day. Would such a big target make people suspicious?"

"And the weight of three hundred bags is the weight of killing one person. For two people, at least six hundred bags are needed."

The two sang together, and after talking for a long time, they came to an obvious and common answer - this is not how to obtain medicine.

"That's not it, so what? Did Wan bring it from Tingjiang Prefecture?" Zhong Ziyu guessed. Liu Wei shook her head: "Wan's hatred towards Jiang was because she discovered that Jiang was having an affair with Sun Tong. This discovery was made after she and Sun Tong returned to Xijin County after receiving the news of Sun Jian's death. You know, that is to say, it is impossible for her to plan the subsequent actions in Tingjiang Prefecture. She is temporarily

So Zhang Mazi and rat poison were all prepared in Xijin County. "Zhong Ziyu calculated again: "Sun Tong died two days after Wan came to Xijin County, and two days later, Sun Jun died. The time was so close, how did she manage to complete the layout in two days? Everything? Just buying medicine is not enough time. Most importantly, what did you say about killing Zhang Mazi?

Rat poison is very special and only a tiny amount is enough to kill someone. "

"Black doctor." This is the only possibility Liu Wei can think of.

Zhong Ziyu agreed, but he felt a little misty: "Of course the black doctor can buy anything if he has money, but where is this black doctor? Since he is a black doctor, he doesn't list it. How can he find it if he doesn't list it?"

Liu Wei thought for a moment, looked at the medicine shop opposite, and then at Zhong Ziyu.

Zhong Ziyu's expression changed: "Me going again? I've been there just now, and going again will arouse suspicion."

Liu Wei clicked his tongue: "You are a young master from the capital. So what if you have doubts? How dare they do anything to you?"

Zhong Ziyu looked reluctant as a boss: "Then no matter what I say, I can't just ask the black doctor and he will tell me."

Liu Wei patted him on the shoulder: "Show your wisdom. When you kidnapped good women, weren't you eloquent and smooth-talking?"

Zhong Ziyu frowned: "I don't know how to talk nicely."

Liu Wei sneered: "Oh, in the past, when you killed someone, you just hooked your finger and they left with you?"

Zhong Ziyu said seriously: "Yes."

Liu Wei: "..." Zhong Ziyu raised his chin, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. At the same time, he stood in front of Liu Wei, placed one hand against the wall behind her, half-circled her in his arms, and lowered his voice. : "You heard it before. I said that I am very picky. I don't like everyone's skin.

I don’t kill everyone. You should know about the ones I kill, whether they are good people or not. "

Liu Wei raised her eyelids and stared at his face solemnly: "Where is Danniu and Xiaoniu's sister?" Zhong Ziyu paused, as if reminiscing, and then said after a moment: "She is not a good person either."
