When Zhan Zhao heard what I said, he asked,"Then why don't you report it to the official? I just came here, but I just heard from other stores that reporting to the official is of little use. They arrest people and release them after a few days." Will change Bengali to cause trouble. I just thought that since I had just arrived and didn’t know anyone in Kaifeng, I wanted to avoid getting into trouble, so I paid him to settle the matter.

Zhan Zhao said that if anything like this happens again in the future, he should come to Kaifeng Mansion to find me, or the four of them. If there is evidence, we will arrest them.

After asking Zhan Zhao and the others, they stood up and prepared to go to the next house. Before going out, Zhan Zhao and I said,"When this time is over, Brother Zhan will treat you to a drink. You have saved all of our lives before, Mr. Bao." I also mention you often. Okay, wait until you are free and come to me at any time. I took out a few medicine bottles from the counter and handed them into Zhan Zhao's hands. Brother Zhan, these are for treating cold syndrome. Seeing that the weather is getting worse. It's getting colder and you go out more often, so it's more convenient to carry it with you. This pill can be swallowed directly with water.

Zhan Zhao wanted to refuse, but I forced it into his hand. I picked the medicine myself and made the pills myself. I didn’t have any capital, so you can just take it, which is just a little bit of my heart.

Zhan Zhao saw my sincerity and knew that I would be unhappy if I didn't accept it, so he accepted it. OK, Brother Zhan, take it. Thank you, Xiaobei. I sent him out with a smile, thinking to myself, this pill is just compensation for your unearned work. The possibility of finding the murderer is really slim.

When I saw people entering other stores, I returned to the counter and continued my business of making pills. The pill sales have been very good recently. I will still give some to people who can't afford pills. When they come to see a doctor at my place, as long as the patient says that his family is really in trouble and doesn't want to pay for the pills, I will ask him to take the pills back to take them. When will I have money? Just give it again.

Gradually, people here will call me Dr. Zhao, and everyone knows that the owner of this medical center is a good man. Just tell me how such a good person could be a murderer.

When I went to the inn to eat, I would also listen to shopkeeper Li gossiping with me. He said that he had been checking this for several days and there was no news at all. You said that these errands, why should we investigate when people like Sun DaDa are dead? If such bad guys die, they will die. Isn't this a waste of time?

I said, didn't they also obey the orders of the superiors? If people want to investigate, they can do so, as long as those people don't cause trouble anymore. It's been half a month, and no one has come to collect protection fees anymore. Isn't that great?

Maybe there were really no clues to be found, so the case was closed as a home invasion and robbery. Nowadays, there are so many criminal investigation methods in society, but there are still many cases that cannot be solved, let alone the Song Dynasty. It is normal for cases to be unsolvable.

That afternoon, Mahan came to the hospital and said that Mr. Bao would invite me to have dinner in the backyard of the government office. I said okay, then I'll pack up and go.

In the evening, I brought a 50-year-old ginseng. This one was given to Mr. Gongsun. After all, my medical skills were copied from him. It is also appropriate to give a root of ginseng as a thank you gift. He also uses this ginseng as medicine. People in Kaifeng Mansion are often injured, so it is considered as a gift for everyone. When I came to Kaifeng Mansion, I walked through the side door as Ma Han said. When I arrived at the door, I saw Mahan was waiting there. Mahan saw me coming and told me that Mr. Bao was afraid that it would be difficult for you to find your way and asked me to wait for you here. I said to Mahan, thank you, Brother Ma. After walking into the mansion, it was really much bigger than Yingtian mansion. After passing the courtyard and coming to a courtyard at the back, Ma Han said, this courtyard is where Mr. Zhan and Mr. Gongsun live. Then he took me into the courtyard. There were six rooms in a row. In the middle was probably the reception hall. I saw that there were already servants setting up tables and chairs....

When Zhan Zhao saw me coming, he led me to the small living room next to his room. When I entered, I saw Mr. Gongsun sitting there drinking tea. They must have pushed for something and made time to have this meal with me. I see Mr. Gongsun coming forward to salute. Hello, Mr. Gongsun, I haven’t seen you for a long time.

Mr. Gongsun was also very happy to see me. Xiaobei, yes, I haven’t seen you for almost two years. I heard from Guard Zhan a few days ago that you have also come to Kaifeng Mansion. Mr. Bao has just taken over Kaifeng Mansion and there are too many things. Otherwise, I will definitely go to your medical clinic to have a look. You must come to my store when you have time. I still have a lot of things I don’t understand and I want to ask you for advice. After hearing this, Mr. Gongsun said,"You're welcome. If you don't understand anything, you can come to Kaifeng Mansion to see me." Then I would like to thank you sir first. Also, I took out the ginseng wrapped in birch bark from my sleeve.

This was given to Mr. Gongsun. When Mr. Gongsun saw that it was something wrapped in birch bark, he probably guessed what it was and immediately said,"I can't have this. If the adults know about it, they will be angry." I smiled and said as I opened the birch bark, revealing the ginseng inside. I dug this ginseng very carefully, so the year of the ginseng is not necessarily the best, but this product is definitely from the top.

I put the ginseng on the tea table and told Mr. Gongsun that Mr. Gongsun used this ginseng to make medicine and also gave it to the big brothers in Kaifeng Mansion. Also, I picked this ginseng myself from the mountains in Liaodong. It is considered a part of my heart. I originally wanted to make pills myself, but my craftsmanship was always not as good as my husband’s, so I sent fresh ginseng here..

Mr. Gongsun was surprised to hear that I picked the ginseng myself. Xiaobei, have you gone to Liaodong? Yes, I stayed in the mountains of Liaodong for three months, and I was able to collect a lot of medicinal materials from previous years. Some of the medicinal materials are the best from Mount Paektu. So I went out in the summer, didn't I? I just came back two months ago.

Mr. Gongsun said, you dare to go into the mountains alone. There are many old herb collectors who dare not go into the mountains alone. Mr. Gongsun, have you forgotten that I have grown up in the mountains and forests since I was a child. If I hadn’t gone to the mountains to collect herbs, I would never have met you. This ginseng may be valuable to others, but I picked it myself. It is really not valuable. You can keep it.

Mr. Gongsun was very excited when he heard what I said. He recently wanted to make pills to replenish qi and blood, but he was missing a few main ingredients, including old ginseng. If you want to find this kind of ginseng in Kaifeng Prefecture, the price is quite scary. He thought that when the pills were ready, he could share some with me, so he told me, OK, I’ll take it, and I’ll share some with you when the pills are ready. I smiled and agreed. I still have some good medicine here. If you need it, sir, write me a prescription and I will get it for you. The medicine in my hand is of better quality than usual pharmacies, and it’s convenient to get it from my place.

After hearing this, Mr. Gongsun said, OK, I will go to your store tomorrow to take a look. I really need medicinal materials to make pills. A gift. In order not to attract attention, I put the ginseng into my wide sleeves and went out without taking any of Ren Bao's things.
