Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Master Wang's hometown is in Xiangcheng, which is several hundred miles away from the capital. It can be reached in half a month at most with normal travel.Even if there are some difficulties, it won't take too long, but God probably thinks that the first half of Master Wang's life was too smooth, but it's too easy to lose his official position.After leaving the capital, the weather was not easy. It was June, and it was raining again and again, but God was in a bad mood. He felt that the rain could not express his mood, so he had to add hail.The largest hailstones were the size of eggs.

The carriage stopped in Liangzhou for more than ten days, and the hailstorm hit all the crops.The whole family, including the grooms, stayed in the inn. Mr. Wang stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking towards the direction of the capital. It must be ominous for the new emperor to encounter such a disaster just as he ascended the throne. But his throne is going to be snatched away, and the former crown prince is placed under house arrest in the East Palace, where there is no room for old officials... Can the new emperor's weekly calendar be stable?

Rather than worrying about Mr. Wang, in the imperial palace of the capital, Zhou Li listened to the eunuchs report the results of house raids these days. The things collected by the elders in the pavilion can fill half of the treasury, and the things collected by Mr. Wang's house, several people present The eunuchs all shook their heads, they were pitifully few, except for the valuable books, they were actually rewarded by the former emperor, such as shops, fabrics, wishful thinking...

Emperor Zhou Li knocked on the table with his finger. Prime Minister Wang really couldn't find any faults in his conduct as a man and an official. It's a pity that he just supported the emperor's brother.The reason why Prime Minister Wang was not killed was also because of his character, if not, he would be like those old elders who would destroy the whole family and punish the nine clans.After waving the eunuch to leave, Emperor Zhouli opened the memorial, and the first book was about the disaster in Liangzhou.The mood of Emperor Zhouli can be imagined. Just as he ascended the throne, he encountered a disaster that was said to have not been seen for hundreds of years. The continuous hail affected not only the mood of the emperor, but also the harvest of the year.

There were no people walking around in the streets of Liangzhou City. Whether it was a teahouse or a restaurant, it was empty and deserted. I don’t know whether it was because the weather was cooling down or because there was no popularity, and people still felt cold in robes and quilts.Tian Ding huddled under the quilt, shivered, and then rubbed against his elder brother. It's too cold this day, is there any reason, when will it be a head.

The child couldn't stand it, and Mrs. Wang, who was weak, fell ill immediately. Wang Xiuyun, who lived with Mrs. Wang, was not a careful person. She didn't find out that her mother was unwell until night, and hurried out of the room to call for help.Wang Xiubai hurriedly put on his clothes and went out to find a doctor with an umbrella. Tianding crawled out of the quilt, jumped out of bed and ran to the room where his mother and sister lived. It was found that it was too careless.Stomping his foot hard, Tian Ding turned and ran downstairs.

"Uncle shopkeeper, give me a pot of the strongest wine." Standing on tiptoe, Tian Ding couldn't touch the table, so he could only drag his neck and yell.People in the later generations know to use strong alcohol to reduce fever, but Tian Ding is not sure whether there was such a method in ancient times, but now it is important to save people, even if the father and elder brother doubt it, they must do it.

"Little baby, the wine in the store was bought by someone earlier. It's been freezing outside these days, so I haven't had time to buy it." Those who live in the store can be seen as the children of everyone, and the shopkeeper dare not offend.

"Where can I buy it? I need it urgently." Tian Ding cursed secretly in his heart, why is he so pissed off, hailstorms started three days after he came out of the capital, and the temperature plummeted, and then his mother caught a cold and asked for some wine. Sold out.

"There's a wine store in the east of the city, they should have it." Daoming, the shopkeeper, saw the wine shop, and then saw the little boy turned and ran upstairs, guessing in his heart that he probably went to withdraw money, and shook his head. How to make the little doll run around? It's such a cold day, and there is still a large piece of ice falling. If it hits the head... the shopkeeper shook his head and turned back to the house. It has nothing to do with him, so why worry about it.

Tianding ran upstairs, dug out the copper coins he had hidden, put all the copper coins in his purse, and bought as much as he could buy. He had to borrow a flagon from the shopkeeper, thinking about it while putting on clothes on his body.After all, it was a child, and he was already out of breath when he ran downstairs. "Uncle shopkeeper, can you lend me a hip flask." Tian Ding took a few steps back, bowed his hands to the empty cabinet, and then remained still.

The shopkeeper who had just entered the room paced out again, "Little baby, it's freezing outside, you can't go out like this, what about your lord?" The doll cupped her hands and saluted without moving, the shopkeeper's heart softened a little.

"My mother is suffering from the wind and cold, and I want to use strong wine to drive her away from the cold." Tian Ding replied very seriously.

"If you are suffering from wind and cold, please ask a doctor. There is no such thing as strong wine to drive away the cold." There are many guests who come and go, but they have never heard that strong wine can be used to cure wind and cold.The shopkeeper doesn't think that the little baby is lying, and human life is a matter of heaven, even if the little baby does something crazy, the adults of their family will allow it, that is to say, they have tried it, and it works.

Tian Ding didn't say a word, but just stared at the shopkeeper with wide eyes. The shopkeeper was helpless by Tian Ding's look, so he brought the smallest jug for Tian Ding. It wasn't that he was reluctant to borrow the big one, but the baby was too small, how could he get a big one? Yes, even the small one, the shopkeeper is still worried that he will be dropped by the little doll, so he just thinks he is doing good deeds every day.

After taking the jug, Tian Ding stuffed his mouth with a cloth, took off the lid and stuffed it with a cloth, then put it in his arms, picked up the clothes he had brought down and covered his head, just as he was about to go out, he turned around and looked To the shopkeeper, "Thank you uncle shopkeeper, uncle, how do I get to the east of the city?"

"As soon as you go out and walk east, you will see shops with red flags, little baby, they may not open the door for you, and the shops in the city are probably closed now." The shopkeeper was worried that the little baby would Injured, outside day, let the little baby go out alone, the shopkeeper doesn't know what the little baby's elders think, if it is his baby, he is absolutely worried, and will not let the baby go out alone.

The shopkeeper's worry is nothing to Tianding. In the last days, the weather was much worse than it is now. Now it's just a hailstorm outside. In the last days, besides the bad weather, there are also various mutants. In order to survive, for If you eat a bite, you have to run out.Tian Ding didn't treat himself like a child, his mother was sick, his father was around his mother, his sister was unreliable, his brother went to find a doctor, all he could do was find some spirits for his mother to wipe her body.Thanking the shopkeeper again, Tian Ding stood at the door to identify the direction, and then ran east.

The shopkeeper stood at the door and watched the little boy's figure disappear into the ice, but he didn't close the door, because he was afraid that when the boy came back, he would not be able to hear the door and open the door in time.

Wang Xiubo, who led the doctor back, did not notice that his younger brother was missing. The bulge on the bed made him think that his younger brother was sleeping under the quilt.After the doctor checked the pulse, he bluntly said that it is not difficult to cure, as long as the temperature drops, it will be fine, but due to the weather, the medicine in the pharmacy is missing a few flavors.Wang Xiuyun stood on the side in bewilderment and wiped away tears.

Tian Ding, who went out to buy wine, came back very quickly. The store owner was a good man, and he didn't refuse him because he bought too little wine. He even waived his drink price because he was saving his mother.Panting heavily, Tianding climbed upstairs and pushed open the door of his mother's room. Only then did the Wang family find out that Tianding had run out.Now the doctor has left, and Tian Ding took out the wine jug from his arms. Because he ran all the way, he spilled a lot of wine, "Father, my son has read in the book that spirits can be used to drive away the cold and dissipate heat, so he bought a jug .”

Master Wang, who just wanted to educate his youngest son, swallowed the words. He didn't know what his youngest son had learned in his enlightenment. The methods in the book were not impossible. There are many kinds of books in the collection, and it is not surprising that there are medical books.However, Master Wang still criticized his youngest son's behavior.

Wang Xiubo, who sent the doctor back, didn't know that his younger brother had made up a story to fool people. If he had been there, he would probably have asked which book it was and what books his younger brother was reading, but he knew everything.

After Tianding passed the test, he asked his sister to wipe the back of the ears, wrists, and ankles for his mother with alcohol.Then I went downstairs to ask the shopkeeper to give them each a bowl of ginger soup.The shopkeeper responded immediately, looking at the little baby with a very kind look in his eyes.Tianding ran upstairs again, put on his wet clothes, and sat in a basin filled with hot water. The benefits of a child were manifested at this time. A basin of hot water was enough for him to take a quick hot bath, and he put on his clothes to dry comfortably. clothing.Dry your hair, and the waiter at the inn brings ginger soup.He pinched his nose and drank a large bowl before he exhaled and ran to see how his mother was doing.

Wang Xiuyun kept wiping the three places mentioned by her brother with strong wine, and she still didn't forget to wipe her tears. Master Wang had already drank ginger soup and was feeding his wife at the moment. When Tian Ding entered the room, he sat by the bed and looked at his mother. .Because of my father's affairs, my mother had trouble sleeping and eating for several days in a row. Before she could take a breather, the family suffered great changes. She traveled all the way here, but was knocked down by the cold weather.

Wang Xiubai came back with the medicine prescribed by the doctor, because of the lack of several medicines, it is unknown how effective the medicine will be.No one mentioned to Wang Xiubai about buying wine for Tian Ding, and he just frowned and didn't ask much about the smell of spirits in the room.Wang Xiubai went back to his room to change his clothes, and Tian Ding took the hot ginger soup to his elder brother. It was raining hail outside, and he was afraid that his elder brother would not be able to hold on.Tian Ding didn't remember which book he read. In ancient times, wind and cold could kill people. He didn't want to lose his family.

"Tianding, why are your clothes wet?" Wang Xiubai frowned looking at the clothes on the chair, but he didn't stop his hands. He brought a basin of hot water to the chair and rubbed a wet towel to wipe himself.

Tian Ding turned his head away, so he wouldn't say that the water was from the shower he just took. "Brother, drink up the ginger soup soon, I'll take the medicine and fry it." After speaking, he picked up the medicine and ran away.
