Europe is plunged into a war cloud, and various countries are preparing for future wars against Russia.

Anyway, when the polar bear falls, everyone wants to get a piece of its meat. It doesn’t matter how much it is, as long as you get a piece of it, you will make a profit.

The capital city of Ming Dynasty is prosperous and peaceful, because the Ming Dynasty New Year is coming.

The Chinese New Year has a special meaning for people in the Ming Dynasty. I don’t know when it became popular in the Ming Dynasty to eat dumplings at night during the New Year’s Eve.

Of course, the custom of eating dumplings mainly exists in the north. In many places south of the Yangtze River, glutinous rice balls are eaten on New Year’s Eve, which means reunion.

Anyway, whether eating dumplings or glutinous rice balls, the Ming Dynasty enjoyed good weather and peace and prosperity for the country and the people. There were no wars externally and no excessive taxation internally.

People's lives are getting better day by day. Even families with difficult lives can still weigh a few kilograms of meat during the New Year, make a meal of dumplings and celebrate the New Year happily.

The large and small department stores in the capital were crowded with people who came to shop. This one had pulled on a few meters of cloth to make clothes, and the other bought some preserved fruits and dried fruits to entertain the guests.

Many people who came to the capital and were rushing home before the Chinese New Year bought big and small bags, planning to go back to their hometowns to show off the things they brought back from the capital.

Although they are sweating profusely, people will continue to join the battle group as long as they think that they will have a good face when they go home and share it with relatives and friends.

At this time, the only places that were relatively deserted were the pharmacies in the capital.

During the Chinese New Year, no one who prepares New Year's goods knows how to prepare medicine. Besides, in recent years, several large hospitals have opened in the capital. The attending doctors are either disciples of Divine Doctor Li or students of Tang Ruowang.

In terms of medical conditions, Ming Dynasty is indeed at the forefront of the world. The integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has become a general consensus.

After more than ten years of hard work, a large number of doctors with superb medical skills emerged in Ming Dynasty. Tuberculosis, which was previously untreatable, has now been cured.

Of course, as the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the medical level here is the highest. The highest medical institution in the Ming Dynasty is the Army General Hospital in Tongzhou.

Huniu sat in the corner of the medicine hall, looking at the sparse guests outside.

It seemed that no one was buying medicine today. Huniu was thinking about letting the guys get off work early today. It was the Chinese New Year, so she also asked the guys to go home early to buy some New Year goods.

The owner of this drug store is her aunt Li Yu. Even though Li Yu doesn't do anything, she has a lot of wealth. She has three strong brothers and a fox-like younger brother. It's hard to imagine that she doesn't have a lot of money.

Almost all high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty knew that it didn't matter if they offended Li Xiao. But if they offended Li Yu, the trouble would be big.

Li Xiao and Li Xiu hurt Xiaoyu to the core. The younger Li Hao tried his best to make this sister happy.

What happened to Xiaoyu back then made Li Xiao feel very guilty towards Xiaoyu.

This is a girl with an extremely stubborn temper. She is now twenty-seven years old. According to Ming's age, she is already considered an older leftover girl.

There are many young talents pursuing Li Yu in recent years, but whether they are as handsome as Pan An or as talented as Junyan, Li Yu doesn't even look at them.

Aunt Li's wife means what she says. If she says she will never marry, she will never marry.

Li Xiao had no choice but to let it go. He could only transfer some coal money, copper mines, and shares in other mines to Li Yu.

Many of Li Xiu's overseas assets are linked to Li Yu's shares.

Li Hao's shares in the Northwest Potash Mine are much greater than Li Yu's.

As for Li Hu, he directly set up a gem mine for Li Yu on Ceylon Island. The sapphires and rubies produced every year were given priority to Li Yu.

As for jadeite from Myanmar, agate and jade from the Western Regions, Li Yu is already considered a popular commodity.

With so many people helping to make money, even though Li Yu didn't have to do anything, the annual dividends in silver coins were a huge amount.

The amount of money was so large that Tokugawa Chihime, who took care of Li Yu's accounts, was a little jealous when she saw it!

Li Yu didn't care much about the money. No matter how many good things she had, they were just extraneous things to her. Although she was not a monk, Li Yu was definitely the person who regarded money as dirt the most in the Ming Dynasty.

The reason is...she has too much feces.

Since you have a lot of money, think of some ways to spread it out.

This medicine shop in the capital was where Li Yu spent his money. There were many medicine shops in the capital, but this one was the only one with the purpose of losing money.

No matter what kind of medicinal materials, you can get them at any price and get them out at any price. The salary of the waiters and the attendants is generous. If you encounter someone who is in need, the medicinal materials can be taken away first.

As for the money for medicine, you will pay it if you have it; if you don’t have money, you will owe it.

When will it be returned?

There is absolutely no such thing as debt collection here. Love is not repaid. These words came from Li Yu's mouth, and he was even more angry than the person who owed money.

With such a shopkeeper who is determined to lose money, there is no business in this drug store that can't be done well.

It has only been open for one month and has already become one of the most prestigious drug stores in Beijing.

Of course, Li Yu, who is used to being idle, would not care about such trivial matters. Now this aunt of the Li family has already taken an airship to Hainan and spent time in her seaside villa.

This medicine shop in the capital naturally fell into the hands of Huniu who wanted to learn how to run a house and run a business. She was going to lose money anyway, so she treated it as a practice for her children.

That's what Li Yu said when he left.

Li Xiao had a dark look on his face when he heard this, learn how to lose money?

Huniu was thinking about asking the waiter to close the shop and go see her uncle early today.

A group of people walked in at the door, led by a guy wearing jeans and a royal blue silk jacket.

Wearing a fragrant leaf crown on your head, there is actually a pair of sunglasses hanging on your face on a cold day. The most annoying thing is, why are you holding a folding fan on a cold day? It's not cold enough?

With this look, you can tell he is not a good person.

"What medicine do you want, sir?" When a customer came to the door, the waiter immediately greeted him with a smile.

"What medicine do you want? I want...what do you want?" The man with eyes held a folding fan in his hand, pointed at the row of medicine boxes, and turned to look at the men in black behind him.

Those men in black were obviously his subordinates. When they saw their master speaking, they hurriedly shouted to the waiter: "I have a patient at home who needs ginseng of a hundred years...a thousand years or more to cure the disease.

Hurry up and bring out the ginseng that is over a thousand years old!"

The guy held it back for a moment. Thousand-year-old ginseng? Is this stuff available in pharmacies? When ginseng farmers find such ginseng, they have long offered it to the commander in exchange for money.

"I'm sorry for you! The store has a small profit margin and doesn't have the thousand-year-old ginseng you want. However, if you really have a patient at home, you can buy two wild ginseng plants and the medicinal effect will be the same." After all, he has seen the world.

What a job, how can you still speak calmly when someone yells at you like that?

"Hmph! What kind of drugstore is there? They don't even have thousand-year-old ginseng. Then as you said, I'll bring two pounds of wild ginseng home to make soup." The guy wearing glasses spoke a little strangely. He spoke in a very awkward way.

Mandarin, it seems, comes from the south.

"Two kilograms...!" The waiter looked back at Hu Niu. These people in front of him were obviously looking for trouble. Who can buy two kilograms of ginseng at once?

Huniu frowned and winked at the waiter.

"I'm sorry, sir, this ginseng is not weighed by celery. If you want it, I'll give you two ginseng to use as medicine." The waiter replied patiently, but there was still a smile on his face.

"Haha! I want two pounds." The guy holding the folding fan looked cold and stared at the waiter aggressively.

"Sir, no matter who you are, don't cause trouble in the shop. Otherwise, you won't get any good results." Another older waiter came up and raised his hand to the man in sunglasses.

"Who said we were causing trouble? We are here to buy medicine. Since you can sell two plants, let's take two plants back." The man in sunglasses smiled and bowed his hand to the clerk.

"Get him two ginseng plants!"

The boy who took the medicine immediately took out two ginseng plants from the drawer, weighed them, wrapped them and handed them over.

"It's a total of two or three dollars, which means it costs three silver coins and another twenty eldest sons."

"I don't have any money, so I owe you first." After the man in sunglasses said that, he took the ginseng from the waiter's hand and walked out.

"Stop!" Huniu couldn't stand it at this time. He was obviously a gangster who came here to make trouble.

"What's the matter? Didn't your pharmacy say that you can buy on credit?" The man in sunglasses glanced sideways at Huniu, and finally his eyes fell on Huniu's breasts.

"I can pay on credit, but I won't give it to you. Give me the money!" Huniu has Li Hu's blood flowing in her body, and her temper is naturally like Li Hu's.

When she saw someone trying to cheat her own ginseng, of course she wouldn't do it.

"Hey! Why don't you give me credit? You look down on me." The man in sunglasses waved his hand, and the men in black surrounded Huniu and the waiter.

"Don't make trouble here, otherwise you will look good." Of course, Hu Niu was not afraid of the little bastard in front of her.

The eldest brother on the capital road, Fifth Master, has to call her aunt when he sees her. This bastard in front of him is nothing but a green onion.

"It looks good! What do you think? Bite me! Come on, come on and bite me! Hahaha!" said the man in sunglasses, leaning over and laughing at Tigress.

"Pah!" Tigress swung her fist round and slapped the man in sunglasses in the mouth.

This slap caused the sunglasses of the man with sunglasses to fly far away. Five finger prints were clearly left on his face, which was rapidly swelling at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Grandma! I'm tired of you, brothers, hit me!" The man in sunglasses said and punched Huniu in the face.

Unexpectedly, Huniu had practiced with Li Hu since childhood. When she saw her opponent punching her, she ducked her head and hit the man in sunglasses with her knee hard on the lower body.

The man in sunglasses immediately arched his body like a shrimp.

At this time, the men in black were already fighting with the guys. The men in black were obviously good fighters. Although the guys were young and strong, they didn't have much strength to fight back when facing these people.

After a while, all the guys were beaten to the ground.

Huniu was surrounded by people. No matter how powerful she was, there was nothing Huniu could do when she was surrounded by a group of young and strong men.

He was kicked twice, and then his arms were grabbed and twisted behind his back.

"Fuck! You little bitch, how dare you hit me? Bang!" The man in sunglasses had a nosebleed and slapped Huniu on the face.

"You...!" Just as Huniu was about to speak, she received another hard punch in the face.

This punch hit her nose right on the nose, causing Huniu's nose to bleed. The sound of broken nose bones could be clearly heard by everyone around her.
