Chapter 134 Ants' Gossip

The chief of police was extremely anxious. If this man died and the things could not be found, he would have no way to explain to the diplomats!

Seeing that Siming was not threatened at all, the man panicked and said, "I'll tell you!"

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, brushing past his ear.

Blood immediately flowed from his ears, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he kept swallowing his saliva, trying to forget the fear he had just felt.

Siming pointed his gun at him with smoke coming out of it: "Speak."

"In a loose brick three meters from the left side of the diplomat's house." The man stammered.

After he finished speaking, he fell to the ground as if relieved of a heavy burden, gasping for breath.

"Take him back to the police station!" Siming said, looking at the chief of police station who didn't move: "Why don't you leave?"

The chief of police came to his senses and immediately followed his footsteps.

Diplomat He Huaizheng saw that they were in a bad mood and asked: "Did you find my things?"

The chief of police didn't dare to speak, but turned his head and looked at Siming cautiously.

"I'm here to take you to get the things." Si Ming looked at him and made a gesture of invitation.

He Huaizheng looked at Si Ming in confusion, but still followed him out.

Siming brought him to the left wall outside his home, causing him to frown: "General Si, why did you bring me here?"

"Don't be impatient, diplomat!" Siming said as he reached out to a loose brick on the wall, took out something wrapped in a handkerchief and handed it to him.

"Open it and see if it's what you lost."

He Huaizheng took the handkerchief from his hand with some uncertainty, opened it carefully and looked inside. A pair of gold and jade dragon and phoenix bracelets lay quietly inside.

The bracelet looks quite old, and the jade on it is like a ruby, which is rare. Judging from the workmanship, it is not a cheap item.

He picked it up and checked it, confirming that it was what he had lost, and the expression on his face eased a lot.

"General Si, Commander-in-Chief, thank you both for helping me recover my lost items."

"Since the diplomat cares so much about these bracelets, it would be better to find a more secure place to keep them." Siming smiled faintly.

He Huaizheng looked at Si Ming. The two of them didn't have much interaction on a daily basis, but he had heard that he managed Beiyang City very well.

He was not from Beiyang City. He was just passing by Beiyang City and was going to take a boat from here to another country.

This house was temporarily lent to him by a friend to facilitate his boarding of the ship, but he did not expect such a mess to happen.

"Please go back first, Chief! I have something I want to discuss with Governor Si."

The chief of police immediately smiled and nodded and said goodbye.

"General Si, let's talk inside." He Huaizheng made a gesture to invite him.

Siming asked everyone else to stay outside the door and followed him into the house.

The yard is not big, but it looks elegant and unique.

He Huaizheng poured two cups of tea and placed them on the table: "General Si, please."

"The diplomat asked me to come in. Could it be that he wants to invite me for tea?" Siming looked at the person sitting opposite him.

"I owe you a favor for what happened today. If you need my help in the future, I will do my best." He Huaizheng didn't beat around the bush.

"I didn't expect that this pair of bracelets is so important to you." Si Ming was also quite surprised.

"This is something left by my ancestors. If I lose it, I won't be able to face them." He Huaizheng looked at the bracelet in his hand.

"In that case, I won't be polite with you. If I need help in the future, I hope the diplomat will not refuse!" Siming picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"Of course. I, He Huaizheng, won't go back on my word, but I also have a prerequisite. It doesn't involve national security." He Huaizheng looked at him with a firm gaze.

"I wouldn't do such a thing either." Siming put down his teacup: "Now that the item has been found, it's time for me to take my leave."

He Huaizheng dared to make such a promise because he had heard of Siming's character and believed that he was not a reckless person.

All he could do was to help him diplomatically.

Si Tian has been busy discussing the production of tablets with Doctor Huai these days. The clinic is definitely not enough, so the two finally decided to use a workshop that the Hu family had not rented out to make tablets and pills.

Now the mold has been completed, but the two are a little troubled by the problem of manpower.

Doctor Huai looked at the workshop and then at Si Tian: "Second Master, if we find someone who doesn't know medical knowledge, there will be problems."

"Doctor Huai, we can't find so many people who know medicine, so you have to control the formula of medicinal materials." Si Tian had thought about it, but it was difficult to find them.

"Then we will prefer commonly used medicines and mainly non-toxic drugs." Doctor Huai also felt that it was a bit unreasonable.

"This is the only way. In addition, all the people we recruit must sign a death contract. If they die accidentally, we will pay them twenty dollars as compensation." Si Tian looked at him.

Doctor Huai nodded. This was for the sake of confidentiality. “That’s fine. I’ll have them do it separately, with each person responsible for a different process.”

Si Tian nodded and showed him the printed packaging paper: "This is the name and dosage of the tablets you made earlier. Please check if there are any mistakes or omissions."

"If you add new medicines in the future, please tell me in advance so I can have them reprinted and sent to you."

Doctor Huai took it and examined it, but found no problems. "I will make more medicines for wind-cold and wind-heat this season. You can always keep these medicines at home."

"You take care of the medicines. There will be no shortage of medicinal materials. Just do it with confidence." Si Tian was still very confident in Huai Langzhong.

"Okay, I will recruit people now and get the workshop up and running as soon as possible." Doctor Huai turned around and went to recruit people.

Although the workshop signed a death contract, the wages were high, and if someone died, the family could receive compensation, which was the best option for ordinary people.

So as soon as the notice was posted here, it attracted a lot of people to sign up.

Doctor Huai gave priority to those who knew medical knowledge. If they didn't, he would choose younger children, who were probably around fifteen or sixteen years old.

Juanjuan took Si Jinchen's hand and ran over to join in the fun.

Si Tian was also stunned when he saw the two children: "Why are you here?"

"Grandma said that my second uncle and Grandpa Huai's tablet workshop are hiring, so we wanted to come and take a look." Si Jinchen said with a smile.

As soon as Juanjuan entered the workshop, she was attracted by the ants in the corner. It was not that she had never seen them before, but these guys were gossiping.

She let go of Si Jinchen's hand and ran to the corner and squatted.

"Rustle. Some of these people are just scammers." An ant carrying a bean looked at the people who signed up.

Another ant carrying a grain of rice wondered, "Shasha. Who's the liar?"

"Shasha. Just sign up for this. You don't know pharmacology, but you say you do." The bean ant moved its antennae.

"Shasha. And that guy, I heard he's a gambler, so we can't hire him."

Juanjuan tilted her head and looked at the people in the team that Ant mentioned.
