Han Luoxue laughed again: "I gave my people the antidote? What about your people? I didn't know these people you brought before. Did you give them the antidote when they came in too?"
This remark caused the onlookers to burst into laughter: "Fatty Sun's brain is really fried!"
"What do you call a brain? It's a pig's brain!"
"Oh my god, this is hilarious! Can anyone tell me what happened today?"
When they arrived, there was already a conflict, but the cause and effect were still unknown to everyone.
Seeing everyone's curiosity, Han Luoxue decided to be a good Samaritan and explain things to them: "Since everyone is curious, I'll give you a general overview of what happened today. This Mr. Sun, whom you call Fatty Sun, suddenly came to my shop and said he bought our ointment and used it on his men, and as a result, their hands rotted."
"Although our Fu'an Hall has only been open for a short time, and that ointment is not new, many of you have used it and know how effective it is, right? If it were a case of rotten hands, someone would have gotten rotten hands long ago. Why is it only here at Fatty Sun's place that people's hands are rotten?"
"Of course we won't deny it. If it really is a problem with our ointment, we will definitely take full responsibility. It's just that this Fatty Sun is interesting. He said he has hidden the ointment and the person with the rotten hand, and that I won't be able to find it."
"This is the first time I've heard of someone like this. If you say someone's ointment is defective, at least provide witnesses and physical evidence!"
An elderly man in the crowd glared indignantly at Mr. Sun.
"They're just making false accusations without any witnesses or evidence. I really don't know who gave them the nerve!"
"You don't know this, do you? Hand ointment has always been a big business here. Think about where we used to buy it, how effective it was, and how much it cost?"
Guided by this suggestion, everyone began to ponder.
Some people are quick-witted and react very quickly.
"I know! They're trying to ruin Fu'antang so we'll keep using that ineffective and expensive ointment!"
"Some people look like humans, but they do nothing like them!"
"Fu'an Tang's ointment is absolutely fine. I've used two boxes already, and my hand is perfectly fine now. Look!"
"Me too, me too! I even told my friends, we all use their ointment and nothing's happened to us!"
"We must unite and absolutely not let this fatso ruin Fu'an Hall!"
Seeing everyone so excited, Han Luoxue felt a warmth in her heart: "Don't worry, everyone. I believe our magistrate is definitely not a corrupt official. He will give everyone an explanation!"
"But this Master Sun never mentioned wanting to report it to the authorities. His condition was that my younger sister and I go back to his mansion with him, and then the matter could be settled privately..."
"That beast!"
Someone threw an egg in, and it hit Fatty Sun on the head with a "smack," leaving his face covered in red and yellow splattered, making him look quite comical.
Fatty Sun was furious. He looked up to find the person who had done it, but unfortunately there were too many onlookers and no one was holding eggs. For a moment, he couldn't tell who had done it.
"This guy is a scoundrel! He's not just picking a fight, he wants to ruin you all!"
"Madam, you absolutely must not go back with him!"
"That's right, and your sister too. That girl has such a good temper. Last time I came to get medicine, I didn't have enough money with me, and she said she'd make up the difference next time!"
"That's right, Fu'antang is a conscientious pharmacy, we should all stand up for her and testify!"
...
"Enough! I can't stand up anymore!"
While everyone was still indignant and discussing the matter, Fatty Sun really couldn't hold on any longer. Even with two people helping her hold her leg, she still couldn't stand on one leg for very long.
"Madam, could you please help me detoxify first?"
Seeing that the man had finally given in, Han Luoxue shook her head: "I'm sorry, I was just lying to you. I didn't poison you!"
"You...you...it's impossible! You must have poisoned me, otherwise I wouldn't feel this stomach pain. My stomach hurts terribly now, and my legs hurt too!"
Fatty Sun was almost in tears. His stomach was really hurting, and he couldn't believe he hadn't been poisoned.
Han Luoxue shook her head again: "How could I have that ability? Didn't you just say that I didn't even get close to you? How could I possibly poison you?"
"If you were to say that someone poisoned you in mid-air, that's impossible. Look around you, none of the people show any signs of poisoning."
Fatty Sun was still in doubt, unsure whether to put his foot down or not.
He desperately wanted to believe Han Luoxue's words, but when it came to his own life, he couldn't bring himself to believe them.
Seeing his dejected look made the onlookers even happier.
"Are you really not poisoned now?"
Fatty Sun still couldn't believe it. Han Luoxue really couldn't be bothered with him anymore. Seeing so many onlookers outside, this was an excellent opportunity for publicity.
She walked to Han Luoyu's side and asked in a low voice, "Yu'er, what did you just say?"
"Sister, the ingredients of that medicine have been researched. Most of the ingredients are good, but one of them is a bit special. When you first apply it, the wound heals very quickly. But if you leave it on for too long, it will cause the hand to rot. The time it takes to appear varies depending on the individual's constitution, but the fastest is three days, and the slowest is probably around ten days."
"Once the hands start to rot, if it's not treated promptly, it will continue to spread and proliferate. But how to treat it is currently unknown, and it's unclear whether it can be cured. My master is still researching it."
"However, judging from what Master said, the hope of a cure is still slim. If the symptoms become severe, it could be fatal. It's highly possible!"
Upon hearing this, Han Luoxue's expression hardened.
She never expected that Hongrentang would use this kind of medicine.
According to Yu'er and the others, most people will develop symptoms within ten days at most. If these symptoms are irreversible, it will be a fatal blow to everyone.
You have to understand, most people make a living with their hands. If their hands are ruined, how are they supposed to earn a living in the future?
Han Luoxue turned her head and looked sharply at Fatty Sun. At this moment, Fatty Sun was still wondering whether he had been poisoned or not.
Han Luoxue took two quick steps, walked up to him, raised her hand, and with a slap, landed on his face!
Han Luoxue used a lot of force this time.
It should be noted that Han Luoxue was already quite strong. Fatty Sun was standing on one leg and was already teetering on the verge of collapse. Even with several servants supporting him, they were still struggling.
Han Luoxue slapped him, and he staggered a few steps before falling to the ground with a thud. Several servants also fell down with him.
One of them was pinned down by him, and he kept groaning in pain.
