Chapter 356 Their wife is the richest master

Unexpectedly, those medicinal material merchants didn't buy Zhao Yi's tricks at all.

"Miss, we are a small business and can't afford any delay. And we agreed before that we will pay you once the herbs are delivered."

"yes!"

"It can't be that the Marquis's Mansion can't afford the money at all, right?"

No matter how Zhao Yi promised, everyone had the same attitude: no money, no herbs!

Seeing this, Zhao Yi had no choice but to go find Wen Yan first and explain the situation.

"Commander Wen, please ask your wife to pay the money to them as soon as possible. There are so many people in the yard, all waiting for those herbs to save their lives!"

The implicit meaning of those words seemed to be that Song Yuqiu was delaying everyone's treatment opportunities.

Wen Yan glanced at her coldly, and his eyes seemed to contain thorns, which made Zhao Yihun shiver.

She was a little hesitant, "Commander Wen, why... are you looking at me like that?"

Wen Yan spoke in a cold tone, "Just now the doctor said that Madam is depressed and unconscious. We don't know when she will wake up."

Zhao Yi became anxious instantly, "Why didn't she faint earlier or later, but at this moment?"

How can I give him money when he's unconscious?

Wen Yan was so angry that he almost wanted to swear, "Isn't it because of you that I'm angry?"

"I just said a few words casually, who knew she would take it to heart..."

Even now, she is still putting all the blame on others!

Wen Yan was furious, but thinking about the urgency of the matter, he endured it again and again, "First, withdraw money from the account of the Marquis' Mansion to buy herbs and save the person first!"

When the Lord comes back, he will take responsibility.

But Zhao Yi whispered, "Where can we get so much cash in such a short time?"

Fifty or sixty thousand yuan, it would be enough to sell the land, paintings, calligraphy and antiques!

But since the Marquis is not here, who would dare to do that?

She thought about it and then had another idea. "Don't we have a prescription? Let's take a look. We don't have to buy the herbs in the warehouse. If we don't have them or don't have enough, we can spend money to buy them. In this way, I think several thousand taels of silver will be enough!"

At this point, there is no other way.

Wen Yan went to ask for the prescription, and although Mei'er was angry, she still gave it to him.

Everyone took inventory of the herbs in the warehouse. The rest were fine except for one key herb called Bai Lei, which had very small production and was difficult to preserve, so each pharmacy only had a small amount of stock.

And these goods were looted by several medicinal herb dealers in the morning.

Even the white thunder in the hands of a nearby herbalist was bought at a high price.

After such a long delay and going around in circles, I finally found those herbal medicine merchants and asked them if they could sell Bai Lei to them alone.

At least buying one medicine is better than buying all of them.

But some people said, "Then we can't sell it. When your wife bought the medicine, she told us to prepare it according to the prescription when we picked it for the convenience of boiling. Now all the herbs are mixed together!"

This move is indeed understandable, after all, Song Yuqiu also wants to save everyone as soon as possible.

But now the problem falls to Zhao Yi and Wen Yan.

Where do they get so much money to buy medicinal herbs?

On the other side, a group of managers waited for a long time but saw no further news, and they became a little panicked.

"Didn't they say the medicine had arrived? Why haven't you treated us yet?"

"I don't want to die. I'm still so young and my children are so small!"

"They don't want us to die, do they? I heard that all the villages that were hit by the plague were wiped out and burned down!"

The longer time went on, the more panic grew.

More and more people began to feel restless.

When Wen Yan and Zhao Yi returned, everyone hurriedly asked them when they could be rescued.

Zhao Yi sighed and said tactfully, "Madam has really given us a big problem. She promised those medicinal material merchants to buy them at ten times the market price, but how can our mansion come up with so much money at this time?"

Seeing that she still wanted to throw the blame on Song Yuqiu, Wen Yan was completely annoyed with her this time.

"If Madam had not allowed the high price, how could those herbal medicine merchants gather the herbs in such a short time? If you had not obstructed her time and time again, how could things have evolved to this point? Now she is so angry that she is unconscious, and you still blame everything on her!"

Why didn't I realize before that Zhao Yi was so shameless?

Seeing Wen Yan brushing his face, Zhao Yi was embarrassed and said something he didn't know what to say. "Even if she wasn't unconscious, what can we do? Even the Marquis's Mansion can't come up with so much cash in a short time. How can she, an orphan with no family members and no dowry, come up with it?"

She was married far away, an orphan, had no dowry, no one to support her, and she even did not consummate her marriage with her husband, so she was not loved by her husband.

This is why everyone dares to show Song Yuqiu a cold look.

Wen Yan smiled coldly, "Who said she didn't have a dowry? The makeup my elder sister gave her alone was worth two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver!"

When these words came out, everyone present was stunned.

Zhao Yi's eyes widened, "This is impossible..."

People are eager to display their dowry in front of others in a grand manner so that others can know how strong the bride's financial situation is.

But Song Yuqiu never mentioned these things!

However, someone still found some clues. "Have you noticed Mei'er? When she first entered the mansion, she was as thin as a monkey, but now she has grown plump and white!"

Their kitchen often cuts the food from the master, so the master can't even eat enough, let alone the servants. Now that I think about it, it's obvious that they are spending money to eat out.

"I saw something glittering on her wrist the other day, but since she was just a maid and her monthly allowance wasn't much, I thought I was seeing things. Now that I think about it, it's clearly a big gold bracelet!"

And Mei'er was just a low-ranking maid!

A group of managers regretted it even more. They were close to Zhao Yi because Zhao Yi could help them make some money while working for him.

If they had known that their wives were the richest ones, they would have lined up to show their respect to them long ago!

And at this moment, in Song Yuqiu's room.

She was so excited that she danced with joy, "Haha, it's always Zhao Yi who instigates everyone to isolate me, now it's time to let her have a taste of being hated by everyone!"

Xie Zhuoning couldn't help laughing, "That's all you can do."

She couldn't control her excitement, "Sister Zhuoning, when is the best time for me to wake up?"

The medicine dealers are waiting to be paid, and many people are waiting to be cured. If things get chaotic, the situation will be out of control.

"What we want is for the situation to get out of control!" Xie Zhuoning said.

Why would we have to go through so much trouble and calculation just to deal with Zhao Yi?

She said that after all, she was an outsider and a subordinate. To commit an offense against a superior requires layers of calculation, but for a superior to commit an offense against a subordinate, it only requires the use of status, position and power to crush him.

Just one sentence of "insubordination" is enough to convict her!

But then the matter wouldn't be a big deal.

The interests of everyone in the palace were involved, and the matter became so escalated that it was difficult to resolve.

The bigger the trouble, the harder it is to keep it secret.

The sooner Yang Lie gets the news, the faster he will rush back.

Their real enemy is Ye Wuque!
