"Okay, I will do whatever the young master arranges." Ge Hongmin lowered his head and said.

"Now, what you have to do is take the money to buy medicine. Go now, the sooner the better." Zi Yan said lightly.

Ge Hongmin nodded and said: "Okay, sir, please wait a moment. I'll tell my wife first and then leave."

Soon, Ge Hongmin took the money and left in a hurry.

Zi Yan whistled outside, and immediately, a man in black jumped out of the window.

It landed silently.

"Go, send someone to follow Ge Hongmin." Zi Yan ordered in a low voice.

"Yes, sir."

The man in black responded and flew away from the window.

It wasn't until the man in black left that Mickey said in surprise: "Master, this ANBU is okay, everyone here has followed?"

"He's not the only one. Usually a group of three people perform tasks together." Zi Yan smiled and said, "In the future, you will also have to perform tasks independently. Daily physical fitness and martial arts training have already begun. Next, you will also have to

Participate in these training missions."

The current secret guards have a complete set of rules and regulations for carrying out missions. The original book was drawn up by Yang Ruoqing, and was later revised and improved by Xingyun, Ziyan and others. Now it is enough to cope with most mission situations.

"Master, do you have any plans?" Mi Qi always felt that something was wrong. Zi Yan straightforwardly took out the money and asked Ge Hongmin to buy medicinal materials. Is this kind of kindness a bit too much?

Too much is not enough, and giving too much is not a good thing.

"This is a test, not only for Ge Hongmin, but also for others." Zi Yan smiled slightly.

Mi Qi was silent for a while, thinking about the problem here. What is the purpose of Ziyan?

In her opinion, Zi Yan actually had another meaning that she didn't say.

This test was also aimed at her.

The test is whether Mi Qi can see Zi Yan's intention.

Mi Qi's mind was spinning very quickly. After a while, she raised her head and said, "I understand, the young master has some other intentions. One is to use Ge Hongmin's purchase of medicinal materials to find out whether anyone is monitoring Ge Hongmin, or whether Ge Hongmin is

It's not about keeping in touch with certain people, it's a kind of fishing, it just depends on who bites the bait."

"Secondly, the prescription contains several very special medicinal materials, which are very useful for frostbite. Those medicinal materials are relatively lacking in the capital. It depends on whether the pharmacy here is in short supply. If there is no shortage, it means that Ping'an County has not followed the instructions issued by the imperial court.

They came to work despite the notice, but did not actively treat those people suffering from frostbite in the cold winter."

"The young master is really amazing. He can actually test out so many layers of intentions with just one purchase of medicine. It's like lifting a huge weight with two ounces and lifting a weight with ease."

Mickey looked at Zi Yan with more and more admiration.

Zi Yan is a benefactor, a relative, and a senior of the secret guards. She is the one she learns from. She has targeted Zi Yan a long time ago.

She really wants to be like Zi Yan, and this is not just talk, she actually puts it into action.

…

Ge Hongmin clasped his hands in his sleeves and walked forward quickly.

From time to time he touched his waist with his elbow.

The banknotes were hidden at the waist, but they were only a small part of the total, and some were hidden in more secret places on the body.

For people who are used to poverty, this amount of money is a huge amount.

Every time he walked for a while, he carefully looked around.

After walking to the street, there were few pedestrians on the street.

The most crowded time on the street is in the early morning, when many villagers living near the county town will carry their burdens into the city to go to the market.

As it approached noon, the crowds gradually dissipated.

He stood at the door of the drug store.

There are three large gilded characters on it, Baicaowu.

The meaning is obvious, acquisition is the meaning of Shen Nong tasting hundreds of herbs in ancient times.

Baicaowu is the largest medicine shop in Ping'an County. Many medicinal materials from all over the country will be sent to Baicaowu after they are collected.

This is not his first time here...

Before he even entered, the boy standing at the door looked at him and raised his lips.

"Hey, isn't this Lao Ge? What gust of wind brought you here?"

"I don't have time to chat with you. Please call your shopkeeper out quickly. I have business to discuss with your shopkeeper." Ge Hongmin straightened his back and said every word.

After saying this, he felt unprecedentedly happy.

How long has it been since you straightened your back like today?

It has been many years, and I only had this feeling when I was working as a clerk in the county government.

"Lao Ge, you are not being honest. If you want to buy some medicinal materials, I can get them for you. If you call the shopkeeper out of anger, then I won't obey." The boy put his hands on his hips and started talking.

"What can you do? The medicinal materials I want to buy are not within your reach." Ge Hongmin sneered.

The medicinal materials in Baicaowu are divided into different levels.

Some valuable medicinal materials, such as five-hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, are locked in cabinets and cannot be touched.

Ordinary servants can bring some common medicinal materials to guests, but they do not have the qualifications and authority to take more expensive medicinal materials.

What Ge Hongmin said was correct, but when the boy listened, his eyes were about to burst into flames.

"Lao Ge, what's the matter with you today? Are you crying? Have you taken the wrong medicine? I can't take it, can you afford it?" the boy said coldly.

Several people taking medicine were already watching the excitement nearby.

"If you can afford it, what will you do?" Ge Hongmin said.

"If you don't want to talk about anything else, let's just talk about the new American ginseng in our Baicao House. It costs three hundred taels of silver. Can you afford it? If you can afford this price, I, Liu Wu, will kneel on the ground and eat three hundred taels of silver at you.

Ring your head and call you grandpa three times. If you can't afford it, hey, call me grandpa instead!" Liu Wu's voice became shrill.

"I don't have a grandson as old as you, so don't do this with me. If I can afford it, you can pay for it for me. Do you dare to accept it?" Ge Hongmin said calmly.

"Okay, I... Ouch..." As soon as the waiter Liu Wu said the word "I", a feather duster flew out of the store and hit Liu Wu's nose directly.

The boy screamed, covered his nose and squatted down.

"Liu Wu, what are you yelling about? We don't follow the rules. In our Baicao House, you are a guest as soon as you walk in. Do you treat guests like this? Get out of the way quickly and don't let me look at you." There was a message from inside.

There was a burst of angry shouting, and a fat man stepped out from inside.

A fat middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe, with a pair of shrewd eyes on his chubby and wealthy face.

Liu Wu stood up and ran towards the back.
