80s Taoism

Chapter 462 Returning to School

(Happy New Year fellow Taoists!)

A few days later, Zhang Jiaohua's family left Changfeng County and returned to Meiziao.

Liu Shengcai from Muyun Village knocked on the door of Liu Junchao's house.

"Uncle Zhaodong, bring me two pills. I feel a little unwell these days." Liu Shengcai looked a little sick.

Liu Zhaodong heard about Liu Shengcai, the bastard took medicine from him and sold it secretly when he went out to the market. Every time he buys a pill from Liu Zhaodong, he pays on credit, and when he gets there, he simply reneges on it. He sells it for ten yuan a pill. After tasting the sweetness, Liu Shengcai came to ask Liu Zhaodong for money every now and then, but he had no intention of giving money at all.

Liu Zhaodong shook his head, "I didn't get a single pill when I went to the mountains this time. Zhang Laodao said that he would not make pills. If you are sick in the future, you should go to Deyi's house to get an injection."

"Uncle Zhaodong, who are you lying to? Others come to get it, but I don't have it when I come to get it? Does it mean that I didn't give you money?" Liu Shengcai was a little annoyed that he didn't get the pills. He wanted to take a few more pills.

"How many times have you taken it in a month? You can eat that much? Do you think you are eating peanuts? Don't think I don't know. The pills you took from me were sold outside." Liu Zhaodong was so angry that his nose was smoking. How could he meet such a shameless person.

"Is the fox's tail showing? You didn't give it to me because I didn't give you any money, right? Seeing that I made money, are you jealous? I can make money, that's my ability! You got so many pills, and I didn't see you make a fortune. You give it to anyone, why don't you give it to me?" Liu Shengcai patted the table and roared.

"Scream! The pills are made by the old way, you have the ability to ask him to go! Don't say that I don't have any pills in my hand, even if I do, I can give them to whoever I want, it's none of your business!" Liu Zhaodong was also furious, and he patted the table and pointed at Liu Shengcai's nose and said.

It was only now that Liu Shengcai recalled this incident. Didn't he never think about taking the pills directly from the old Taoist? If it wasn't for the fact that the old man didn't intend to take his life, and saw the river at the bottom of the mountain throw it, Liu Shengcai would have burped that time. It should be said that a good person's life is not long, and a bad person's life is tens of thousands of years. It was Liu Shengcai he was talking about.

Liu Zhaodong has regretted it a bit until now. He was kind-hearted at first, and when people in the village were sick, they only charged a token amount of money when they came to get pills from him. Also, the food sent to the old Taoist priests was all grown in his own home. If these were counted, there would be more posted. In the end, many people in the village took it for granted. Just like today, Liu Shengcai reached out to ask for it so confidently.

"Old man, you really don't want to give it?" Liu Shengcai simply tore his face.

"No! I won't give any!" Liu Zhaodong stared at Liu Shengcai.

Liu Shengcai slammed the door and left after leaving harsh words, "Let's wait and see!"

Rumors quickly spread in the village that the old Taoist priests in the mountains kindly refined the elixir to cure the villagers and gave the medicine to Liu Zhaodong. Who knew that Liu Zhaodong wanted to make a fortune from this, and now he simply refused to give the medicine to the villagers, and was going to sell it at a high price in the town.

Villagers rushed to Liu Zhaodong's home to question him.

"Zhaodong, you can't do that. The old Taoist gave the medicine to the villagers. What right do you have to take it to the town and sell it at a high price?"

"If you have difficulties at home, you can tell everyone. If everyone can help, they will help you. But the old Taoist gave the medicine to the whole village, not to you alone. Don't think that you can talk to the old Taoist. If we tell the old Taoist about this, you will not be able to please. We also know where the old Taoist lives."

"You should quickly take out the pills and share them with everyone!"

...

Of course, not everyone in the village is so ignorant, and most people still know the truth.

"You people, you know what the retribution guy Shengcai said. You think that the old Taoist's medicine is free of charge. Uncle Zhaodong will send things to the mountains every three to five days, and they will fall from the sky. You used the pills. How much did you pay? Is it enough for the things that Uncle Zhaodong sent to the mountains? I'm sorry for you."

"Liu Shengcai cheated Uncle Zhaodong for the pills without spending a penny, and sold them for ten or twenty yuan when he got them to the market. It's not like you don't know. You asked Liu Shengcai, did you pay a penny?"

"Uncle Zhaodong, from now on, whoever comes to get the medicine, you can just collect the money. Ten or twenty yuan, you set a price, some people don't know what's good and what's wrong. Don't be too nice to them!"

...

Liu Zhaodong looked at the people in the village and shook his head, "It is true that there are no pills. I went to the mountains this time, and the old Taoist said that there will be no such pills in the future. However, after a while, better medicines will be produced, but the old Taoists are going to practice Taoist temples, and that good medicine must be sold for money. If you need it, I will go to the old Taoist to get it. If you don’t need it, then forget it. If you want to get it from the old Taoist, you can also. Hurry up and I will take you to the old Taoist temple."

Zhang Jiaohua returned to Meiziao, still worried about whether Liu Junchao could persuade Liu Zhaodong. If he could follow his plan, the money that Pei Yuandan earned would be enough for Liu Junchao and his grandfather to live a relaxed life. But Liu Zhaodong is too kind-hearted, he likes to be a good person, and if he doesn't do it well, he will mess up the matter of Pei Yuandan.

"Biaohua, when are you going to go to school?" Liu Qiaoye was not in a hurry to let Jiaohua go to school. She was still a little worried, Zhang Jiaohua had been out of school for such a long time, if he went to school suddenly, if he couldn't get used to it, it would be bad for him to skip school again.

"Whatever." Zhang Jiaohua didn't care much.

"Then are you going to go to the first grade of junior high school again, or continue in the original class?" Liu Qiaoye asked again.

"Of course I will keep reading. I won't repeat a grade." Zhang Jiaohua is not worried about studying.

"But, you haven't been to school for so long, how can you keep up?" Liu Qiaoye was a little worried that Zhang Jiaohua couldn't keep up with the progress.

Zhang Jiaohua laughed, "Don't worry. I won't be troubled."

A few days later, Zhang Jiaohua appeared in the classroom of Yidushui Middle School.

When Qi Xia and Nie Tong were in class, they looked back from time to time.

After class, Qi Xia and Nie Tong ran to Zhang Jiaohua's desk.

"Biao Hua, you are really amazing, you only came back after running away for so long." Qi Xia admired it very much.

"Where have you been? I haven't even been to the county seat." Nie Tong yearns for the outside world very much.

Zhang Jiaohua scratched his head, very depressed, can I tell you that you have been going around Meishan for so long?
