Chapter 348

At this time, Cousin Zhou Xia and Aunt, who heard the commotion, rushed over, looking at Xu Yang with pleasant surprise.

"Nephew pays respects to Aunt, Cousin!" Xu Yang hurriedly let go of Xu Qing's hand and performed a grand salute.

Aunt waved her hand: "Don't be so formal; hurry and go see your uncle; he heard the little girl's voice and knew you were back, and he couldn't be happier, struggling to get up to see you, but was stopped by me."

Uncle can't get up?

Xu Yang's face sank, and only then did he discover there was a faint medicinal smell in the courtyard.

Walking into the room with long strides, he saw Zhou Shunchang lying on the bed with a pale face, his aura weak.

With his sharp eyes, he could see at once that Zhou Shunchang wasn't sick, but injured.

"Nephew pays respects to Uncle."

Xu Yang performed a grand salute; Zhou Shunchang wanted to get up, but was pressed down by him.

Carefully releasing his Gang Qi to probe Zhou Shunchang's body, he discovered that Zhou Shunchang had multiple blocked meridians and broken ribs.

The injury wasn't too serious, but it wasn't light either; it would take at least a month or two of rest.

"Uncle, take this."

He took out an Origin-Gathering Pill to give to Zhou Shunchang, then circulated his Gang Qi to dissolve it.

The Origin-Gathering Pill was originally a thing for supplementing vital energy and strengthening the body; for ordinary people, it could be called a holy item for healing.

Helping Zhou Shunchang open the blocked meridians, his complexion gradually became rosy, and his bones also healed a bit.

"A-Yang, what kind of elixir is this? It's divine."

Half an hour later, Zhou Shunchang got off the bed with a glowing face, feeling relaxed all over; as long as he didn't make big movements, he was already completely healed.

There was the reason for the elixir, but mainly it was because he used Jin Gang Qi for assistance; if he had just taken the Origin-Gathering Pill alone, it wouldn't have had such an immediate effect.

Xu Yang smiled: "This is called an Origin-Gathering Pill."

Zhou Xia and Aunt were moved to tears, and Aunt kept holding Xu Yang's hand and thanking him.

"What are you crying for? I'm healed, this is a good thing; A-Yang finally came back, hurry and prepare the meal; in a while, let A-Yang accompany me for a drink," Zhou Shunchang shouted.

Xu Yang shook his head: "Uncle, you can't drink alcohol for the time being; rest for another period of time; the medicine I gave you is good stuff, and most of the medicinal effect is still deposited in your body and hasn't been absorbed; don't be greedy for the cup."

Zhou Shunchang's face immediately fell, but Zhou Xia and Aunt still hurriedly went to prepare the meal.

"Now, Uncle, tell me what happened at home and how you got injured."

Sitting down again, Xu Yang asked.

When he was treating Zhou Shunchang, he found residual true Qi in his meridians; clearly, he had been injured by a Qi Gathering martial artist.

"It's just business matters..."

Zhou Shunchang sighed: "Because of your reputation, plus our tea quality is good and the price is low, the business is getting better and better, making people jealous, and people have started to threaten us openly and secretly.

Either let them buy shares, or share the profits.

However, with Xiao Qing and Wen Jie, ordinary people don't dare to go too far and can only suppress us in business.

It's just that recently Qiu Yongqiang found a medicinal herb channel, and these people got anxious when we wanted to get involved in the medicinal herb industry.

Today, a few people went to the shop to pick a fight on the grounds that the tea they bought was moldy, wanting us to pay several hundred taels; in the dispute, I was beaten.

The other party also threatened us to prepare the money, otherwise they would smash all the shops."

He didn't complain about heaven or blame others; this was how it was in this world if you wanted to do business; being beaten up was light, and not being beaten to death was already out of consideration for Xu Yang, who ascended the dragon.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be this kind of method, but open robbery.

"Brother, Senior Brother Qiu Wenjie has already gone to handle it," Xu Qing said.

Xu Yang's gaze was icy: "Wen Jie should have reached Major Success Qi Gathering by now, right? What is the background of the other party that they dare to force us like this."

Two years ago, Qiu Wenjie was already Minor Success Qi Gathering; in two years, with Qiu Wenjie's talent and the Qiu family's resources, he must have reached Major Success Qi Gathering.

Major Success Qi Gathering in a place like Qingyuan County, not to mention running rampant, could be considered an expert.

With such an expert, people without a certain background would definitely not dare to covet the Qiu family's industry.
