After returning, the Minister of Works asked all of Qian Shanshan's good friends about the matter.
No results were obtained!
A living person just disappeared in the prosperous city of Yongjing.
The Minister of Works reported the matter to the authorities, requesting a joint investigation between the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice.
For a time, there was turmoil in Yongjing City, and rumors spread like wildfire that there were thieves roaming around the capital.
Many young ladies dare not leave the house alone!
Even when they go out, they are always accompanied by dozens of guards for protection.
After a few days, there was no news of missing persons.
The undercurrent in Yongjing City slowly subsided.
On this day, the shopkeeper of Ruyi Ju came to the mansion to report important matters.
An Li met him in the front hall. "Is the shop ready?"
The shopkeeper bowed respectfully and said, "Madam, the shop has been completed as requested by you."
"Today is the opening day, and I would like to invite Madam to preside over the opening ceremony."
It's done so quickly? An Li was a little surprised, but nodded.
"Then go ahead."
Two days ago, Xiao Xinbao took out some pills from somewhere and asked Qingniao to give them to her.
There are three types: beauty pills, body strengthening pills and bone growth pills.
She secretly took a beauty pill, and it was not known whether it was a psychological effect or she really became more beautiful.
Her husband, Ling'er and the maids in the mansion all praised her for looking younger and more beautiful.
Maybe it really works!
An Li planned to take advantage of today's opening to sell it in the store.
I believe it will sell like hotcakes!
The shopkeeper sighed and went back with a smile.
An Li asked Chunliu to carry Xinbao and took Ling'er to the north of the city.
Today, Ruyi Residence has been renamed Piaomiao Pavilion, which sounds ethereal.
Looking at the huge plaque above his head, An Li led his men in.
"Madam, you are here."
The shopkeeper and the shop assistants saluted with a smile.
"Well, you guys go ahead and do your thing. I'll just take a look around." An Li looked at the brand new store decoration and liked it very much.
The furniture in the whole house is mainly light white, with carvings of auspicious clouds and phoenixes on them, which makes it look a bit fairy-like.
Thirty-six pills were placed in a jade bottle and placed individually on a tall shelf in the store.
The pill has patterns on it and looks like jade. It looks like a good thing.
"Mom, will it really sell well?" Ming Yiling smiled gently, took off her veil, and showed her face in public for the first time.
[Third sister, I definitely will!]
[This is a miracle drug, the ingredients are not available here!]
[Believe in Xinbao!]
Mingxin looked around, her little head full of curiosity.
"Ling'er, I'm not worried that people won't buy it. I'm just afraid that once one person buys it and takes it, countless people will rush to buy it." An Li was not worried.
After all, she had personally tested the effectiveness of the pill.
When the auspicious time arrived, the waiter lit two strings of firecrackers and hung them at the door for half a quarter of an hour.
After the smoke from the firecrackers dissipated, the shopkeeper took out fifty taels of silver and mixed it with wedding candy and scattered it around.
Just now, when the firecrackers were set off, many people gathered on both sides.
Now that change was scattered, more people came.
Everyone rushed to grab it!
The shopkeeper was afraid that someone would fight over money, so he asked his clerk to watch.
After the people dispersed, many customers came in to see what the store was selling.
The waiter is always there to introduce the guests.
"What??"
"Five hundred taels of silver for a beauty pill? Are you robbers?"
A young man fanned himself with an incredulous tone.
He looked at the guy with disdain.
The guy had never used it before, so he just followed the instructions and said, "Customer, this is guaranteed to be genuine. If it doesn't work, you can come and get your money back."
“No, no.”
"Five hundred taels of silver is enough for me to eat, drink and have fun for several years."
The young master stepped back and looked at the other pills.
Next, there were constant exclamations from the crowd, all lamenting how expensive the pills were.
Each of the Strengthening Body Pill and the Bone-Growing Pill costs one thousand and two taels of silver.
It is not expensive for the rich in the city, but it is a sky-high price for ordinary people.
"Madam, is this... price too high?" The shopkeeper looked anxious as most of the customers had left the store.
An Li remained calm and said, "Don't worry, someone will come to buy it."
If I remember correctly, a relative of Mrs. Li, the Minister of Justice, was suffering from a strange disease.
When the time comes, take a strengthening pill and you will be full of energy.
[snort!]
[The pills should be sold to those who know their value.]
Mingxin pouted and snorted.
An Li smiled and said, Xinbao was right, the pills should be sold to people who know the value of them.
"Bang!"
"Ooooooooo… Mom, my finger is broken and it hurts so much."
"Damn it Peng'er, please don't get hurt!"
Outside, there was a commotion.
Listen to this sound, right at the door of the store, don’t let anything happen!
When An Li and his group came out of the house, they saw a child lying on the ground who had fainted. He looked to be about six or seven years old.
There was a broken finger on the bloody hand.
"Madam, that child is picking up firecrackers. No matter how I try to stop him, it's useless."
"As a result, there was a dumb bamboo, and it suddenly exploded."
The guy stepped forward and said.
An Li nodded and gave the shopkeeper a look.
"Madam, please have mercy on me and save this foolish woman and her child."
The child's mother clutched the severed finger helplessly, knelt down and kowtowed, crying.
Many people around did not leave and gathered together to watch the fun.
The store is not responsible for this matter, but if it fails to handle the matter properly, the store may very likely go out of business.
At this time, the shopkeeper came over with a jade bottle labeled Shenggu Wan.
