Chapter 175 Ancient Books
Su Tong was stunned for a moment before realizing that Old Mrs. Wu had left.
Ever since the accident happened to Old Lady Wu, Old Lady Wu has been somewhat unconscious. She eats, drinks, defecates and urinates on the kang, causing great unrest in Wu Dajun's family. When she finally regains consciousness, she makes a lot of noise, crying and shouting to save her beloved grandson, and curses the three generations of the Old Wu family from beginning to end, without sparing a single one.
If it weren't for Qiuyu's father's foolish filial piety, Li Cuixiang would have thrown the old lady out long ago.
When Wu Jiafu was arrested, he had all of the Wu family's belongings on him, including the two hundred yuan that Wang Guilan had gotten from Su Tong, all of which were confiscated by the public security department.
In view of the special circumstances of the Wu family, with the proof of the village and town police stations, the county public security bureau transferred all the money with proven sources directly to the hospital where Wu Dashan was. After all, as long as he was unconscious, the expenses would continue, and the hospital could not accept the patient for nothing.
Because of this, Li Cuixiang went to the hospital to make a scene, saying that Old Lady Wu also needed expenses, but she was coldly kicked out.
The hospital said frankly that if it were not for the intercession of the commune and the town, not a single cent of the money would be given back. Wu Dashan's situation was a bottomless pit, and the Wu family would have to pay for the money after it was spent. Now Wu Dajun was the only one left in the Wu family, so it would be Wu Dajun who would have to pay for it.
Li Cuixiang was so scared that she turned around and ran away.
Su Tong has not entered Old Lady Wu's room since Wu Jiafu's accident. Originally, her hemiplegia might have a chance to recover with proper treatment, but she was so restless that she spent so much effort on her treatment, but she only survived this year.
"Sister, do you...want to go take a look?"
Qiuyu asked with some trepidation.
"go!"
It is said that the old lady struggled before she passed away. She tried to call for help but no sound came out. She fell off the bed while struggling and knocked over the enamel spittoon, which woke up Wu Dajun.
Wu Dajun saw that his mother's eyes were red, she was unconscious, and she kept mumbling to herself. He felt that his mother's condition was very abnormal. Frightened, he called several elders of the Wu family. People of all ages gathered in the room. The old woman stared at the people in the room, and she kept her eyes wide open until she died.
Finally, the old man reached out and closed her eyes, sighed and said:
"I'm afraid she wants to see her eldest grandson before she leaves!"
Oh! He was thinking about his grandson till his death!
Has she ever thought that it was her eldest grandson's fault that Wu Dashan's family is in this situation today?
Su Tong did not kowtow, but only stretched out his hand to pick up three incense sticks. In the hastily built mourning hall, he bowed three times to Old Lady Wu, silently saying in his heart:
"Wu Tong! I will bow three times to Old Lady Wu on your behalf to end this simple relationship between grandparents and grandchildren. Yunshan Village will have nothing to do with you anymore."
——————
The tenth day of the first lunar month.
Early in the morning, Su Tong, Lin Li and Zhou Jin said goodbye to the two old men and quietly left the village.
The team members of the action team will gather in Jiangping County, assemble and change their clothes, and then officially set off from Qingfeng Town.
Before the gathering, Su Tong went to "Ji Fu Tang".
Shopkeeper Lin had been waiting for her in the store. When he saw her, he not only handed her a packet of prepared ointment, but also attached an agreement similar to a contract.
"Girl! You just told me such a good prescription, I can't let you suffer any loss!"
Su Tong asked him to make several kinds of ointments and pills, but he had to give him the prescriptions. Shopkeeper Lin only needed to take a look to know how rare these prescriptions were.
The agreement stated that Ji Fu Tang hoped to cooperate with her to produce and sell these ointments and pills, which would also benefit the public, and the income would be divided between the two parties.
When Su Tong took out the prescription, she didn't intend to hide it. She believed in the character of Shopkeeper Lin and had no intention of making money from it.
Seeing that Shopkeeper Lin had thought so carefully and had even drafted a formal agreement, she couldn't help but feel a little moved. Just as she was about to refuse, Shopkeeper Lin interrupted her.
"Girl! You must not refuse! If you don't sign this agreement, I dare not sell the medicine, but this prescription is really good. Such a good medicine can solve so many problems of patients! It's a pity not to sell it! Don't worry, even if I sell medicine at Ji Fu Tang, I will sell it at the regular price. I will never raise the price or do anything unscrupulous!"
Seeing that Manager Lin had said this, Su Tong stopped refusing and looked at the agreement again.
"Is my share... a little too much?"
"Alright, alright! As long as you agree, it's fine! I have the final say on the profits!"
Shopkeeper Lin grabbed the pen and wanted to hold Su Tong's hand to sign for her.
Lin Li drove Su Tong to the county town. Seeing that she took out a lot of medicine from bottles and jars, he quickly reached out to take them and put them in the car.
Looking at the bottles and jars of all sizes, he suddenly asked casually:
"The prescription you wrote to Xing Zhiqing last time, the one for curing the leg? Was it effective?"
He asked suddenly, and Su Tong nodded in confusion, "Of course it's effective! That's a prescription specifically for Brother Xing's constitution. If you don't take good care of your legs after a cold, there will be sequelae."
"Um... can anyone else use it?"
"There are different prescriptions for different people. It is more targeted to prescribe prescriptions based on the actual situation of each person."
Su Tong asked: "Why? Whose legs have been affected by the cold?"
Lin Li was silent for a while and shook his head. "It's okay. I'm just asking casually."
After returning to the county bureau from Jifutang, the members of the action team arrived at a certain point, but did not see Ma Liu. However, Su Tong finally saw Qin Yi. Qin Yi was dusty and looked like he had been on a long journey.
Su Tong found an opportunity to call Qin Yi aside and told him about the iron box.
Qin Yi was very surprised. He knew better than Su Tong what the iron box meant. Not only were the relevant domestic industries eyeing these academic achievements that were lost in the tide of the times, but even foreign criminals sent spies in batches just to steal these precious achievements.
He alone was responsible for solving several espionage cases in which the target was certain academic achievements.
Unexpectedly, the four old men handed the box to Su Tong.
Unexpectedly, Su Tong told him this.
He stared at Su Tong and asked slowly:
"Who else knows about this?"
"Two old men, me, Lin Li."
"Okay! Don't tell anyone about this. Because of the identities of the two elderly people, we can't ask for official help at the moment, but I know a place that must be very safe."
Qin Yi turned around and went out to make a few phone calls. Not long after, a fully armed jeep drove out from the Provincial People's Bank. When passing through Jiangping County, it took Lin Li with it and went straight to Yunshan Village under Lin Li's guidance.
In the afternoon, Qin Yi handed a kraft paper envelope to Su Tong.
Inside was a valuables safekeeping slip with her name on it.
There are two guarantors, one is Qin Yi and the other is Li Zheng, and the custodian is the Hubei Provincial Branch of the People's Bank of China.
The storage column says "Ancient Books".
Su Tong was amazed when he looked at the bill in his hand.
Qin Yi said: "Li Zheng is the president of the provincial bank and my old leader. With his guarantee, the box is exempted from inspection procedures. It's a shortcut. The box is in the safe of the provincial bank. To take it out, you, me and Li Zheng must be present at the same time. No one else can take it out. Don't worry!"
This is indeed a safe method, as safe as it can be.
Su Tong realized belatedly, "You and President Li guarantee me, so... I won't implicate you in the future, right?"
Qin Yi looked at Su Tong with a half-smile, "You just remembered it now, isn't it a little late?"
Then, while Su Tong was stunned, he took the brown paper envelope and said, "I'll keep it at the County Public Security Bureau for you. It's inconvenient to carry it with you when you go on a mission."
He even considered this, and Su Tong nodded in agreement.
