"What crime have you committed?" Zhao Junyi sneered, "Here, if I say you are guilty, then you are guilty here. Everything is up to me!"
"Yeah?"
"So, why do you keep these people here? Why..." Zhao Junyi stepped forward and said viciously, "I will punish you for disrespect!"
Shang Ruoyi sneered. Is it a crime of disrespect?
I really have to reflect on myself three times, have I given you face? It doesn't work to negotiate nicely, he has to force her to use violence.
She curled the corners of her lips and flicked her fingers, and a pill slipped into Zhao Junyi's sleeve without anyone noticing.
Within a few breaths, he felt an extremely itchy sensation on his body.
He scratched at his body like a monkey, and his funny movements made everyone laugh.
"What's crawling on me? It's so itchy." Wu Zhaojunyi wanted to hold it back at first, but it seemed like something was crawling on his body, first one, then two, three, and countless more.
"Doctor! Find a doctor quickly!" he shouted anxiously.
"Hey, the doctor was transferred to the military camp early this morning and hasn't come back yet." The subordinate next to him said, "How about we go to the town and hire a doctor?"
Even a fast horse would take a while to go back and forth. He was itching so much that he wanted to stab himself directly. He didn't want to endure it for even a quarter of an hour, let alone several hours.
At this time, Shang Ruoyi stepped forward and said with a smile: "I know a little bit about medicine, I wonder if you trust me?"
Zhao Junyi had no choice but to say, "Xin Xin Xin, come and show it to me."
Shang Ruoyi took his pulse, her brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed.
Zhao Junyi's heart tightened when he saw this. Could it be that he had some incurable disease?
After a moment, Shang Ruoyi sighed, looked at Zhao Junyi, and hesitated to speak.
This sigh and this look frightened Zhao Junyi so much that he almost fell to the ground.
"What's going on? Why don't you say something?" He kept scratching his body, especially his arms. He had already scratched them, but he still felt itchy.
"You have a strange disease." Her tone was extremely heavy.
He Jingheng looked at this woman who was fooling people seriously and was very amused. A smile appeared on the corner of his lips unconsciously.
"Strange disease?" Zhao Junyi was shocked: "What strange disease?"
"I've seen this in an ancient medical book. If you get this disease, your whole body will itch terribly, and the flesh will fall off piece by piece. Eventually, all the flesh will fall off, exposing the bones. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, it hurts like hell just thinking about it."
As Shang Ruoyi finished speaking, Zhao Junyi fell directly to the ground, his eyes full of fear.
He looked at his body, afraid that some piece of flesh would begin to fall off.
"However, there is a cure." Shang Ruoyi said calmly: "But the treatment process is very painful."
Upon hearing the treatment method, Zhao Junyi ignored his physical discomfort, got up quickly, and asked eagerly: "What method?"
"Acupuncture is performed every three days until the patient is cured." Shang Ruoyi said in a deep voice, "But I am not sure when the patient will be cured. It depends on the individual."
It's just an acupuncture, how painful can it be?
Just cure it.
It wasn't until Shang Ruoyi took out the thickest silver needle that Zhao Junyi just stood there in a daze.
Is this a silver needle?
If it were a little thicker, it could be used as an awl.
Shang Ruoyi inserted the silver needle into his arm and heard Zhao Junyi screaming in pain.
The people around saw this and were all terrified.
How can this be considered a cure? This is clearly fate!
That silver needle, are you serious?
Shang Ruoyi looked at him coldly. This was the result of provoking her. He was suffering, but he was still grateful to her.
She took out the silver needle, and instantly, the itching on her body disappeared.
It really doesn’t itch!
Zhao Junyi said in surprise: "Miss Shang is really a miracle worker!"
"The Wu people must remember to come back for acupuncture three days later." Shang Ruoyi put away the silver needle and said calmly, "It seems that it will take several months at the moment."
A few months...
Zhao Junyi looked at his arm. Is his arm still intact?
But compared to life, it hurts a little!
Shang Ruoyi pointed at the group of workers who were stopped outside the door and said with a smile: "People, these people..."
"Go back!" He waved his hand, turned to Shang Ruoyi and said, "I'll find someone to come tomorrow."
Shang Ruoyi heard this and hurriedly said, "Don't bother." She pointed at the people watching nearby and said, "Most of the prisoners who were exiled with us are young and strong. Just leave them."
When the people around heard this, they were all very happy. What Shang Ruoyi promised yesterday turned out to be true.
Zhao Junyi nodded. Their food was now settled, and they could earn some extra money. When the winter finally came, they could get through the day.
Zhao Junyi naturally had no objection. His life was in other people's hands, so how could he dare to say no?
He quickly said, "Of course, you decide."
"In that case, thank you very much."
After Zhao Junyi left, Shang Ruoyi walked up to the crowd and said loudly: "I think everyone knows that our family is building a house. We are hiring workers in the He family. Only those who work hard will work. Those who want to eat and drink for free and cheat will be driven away if I find them. Don't say that I am ruthless then."
A man stepped forward and asked: "How about the wages? How do you calculate it?"
"Mr. Zhao just said that two meals are worth two silver coins each."
When everyone heard this, they rushed to sign up. After all, now everyone wanted to rely on the He family to survive this cold season.
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
"What I want is strength!"
Shang Ruoyi saw this and said with a smile: "Don't worry, be careful and serious, our family will accept it." She waved her hand, and He Jingxi took the paper and pen and walked forward: "Come and sign up with me!"
The crowd swarmed around him, and luckily he was tall, otherwise he would have been crushed to the ground.
Shang Ruoyi raised the corners of her lips slightly. In her plan, recruiting workers was the first step. She would gradually bring all the prisoners in the exile land under her command.
