Chapter 88 Installing a prosthetic leg
Chapter 88 Installing a prosthetic leg
Through communication with Lord Zhang, Jiang Chen realized that the consequences of this honeycomb charcoal were more serious than he and the county magistrate had thought!
There are constant wars in the court today, and the amount of charcoal needed to forge weapons is definitely not a small amount.
And these charcoal fires are not only controlled by one force in the court.
Several forces, including generals, civil servants, and eunuchs, were competing for the charcoal.
Among them, although Lord Zhang is the leader of the eunuch group, it is impossible for him to take out the honeycomb charcoal directly, otherwise other forces will surely rush up and attack him together!
"Jiang Chen, now you understand why your foster father doesn't want to reveal our identities, right?"
"I won't announce it now. When you start selling honeycomb charcoal, all the major forces will definitely try their best to win you over as soon as possible!"
"At this time, I will send people to build momentum for you, and you can have the best of both worlds and gain the most profit."
"We will announce our identity after honeycomb charcoal is fully promoted. By then... even if others want to take action, it will be too late."
"do you understand?"
Lord Zhang looked at Jiang Chen with a smile on his face.
"Godfather, I understand!"
"I will definitely take care of these things!" Jiang Chen said respectfully.
He is now very glad that he has recognized this old man as his godfather.
Otherwise, he would most likely die at the hands of the other party!
"Well, my godfather believes in you. When the time comes... I will send someone to help you!"
"It's inconvenient for you to stay here for long, so as not to attract other people's attention. You should leave first. If you have any problems in the future, your godfather will send someone to help you!" Lord Zhang said lightly.
"Yes!"
"Then please take care of yourself, godfather. I'm leaving now!"
Jiang Chen bowed respectfully to Lord Zhang and then left.
……
However, before Jiang Chen left, Lord Zhang gave Jiang Chen a jade token and told Jiang Chen that if he encountered unavoidable danger, he could take out the jade token and he would be guaranteed to be safe!
Jiang Chen was extremely delighted holding the jade token!
This is like having an extra amulet!
"My dear nephew! You finally came out!"
"Are...are you okay?" The county magistrate saw Jiang Chen coming out and hurried to greet him.
"Haha, thank you for your concern, Second Uncle. I'm fine. Lord Zhang just discussed the specific matters of honeycomb charcoal with me." Jiang Chen looked at the concerned look on the face of the county magistrate and smiled faintly.
"This...I'm glad everything's okay! I'm glad everything's okay!" The county magistrate also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, a young eunuch came out and said, "Master Xue, our master wants to see you, please come in!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Upon hearing this, the county magistrate hurried over.
Jiang Chen was sent back to the inn by carriage.
Jiang Chen knew that Lord Zhang must have gone to see the county magistrate to discuss the matter of honeycomb charcoal, so Jiang Chen was not overly worried.
But when Jiang Chen returned to the inn, he saw an unexpected person!
"Mynah?"
Yes, Marquis Jian'an was in the lobby of the inn!
"Brother Jiang, you're back. Are you okay?" When Marquis Jian'an saw Jiang Chen, he hurried over.
He received news in the morning that Jiang Chen was picked up by a carriage and taken to Eunuch Zhang's house.
This time, Marquis Jian'an was dumbfounded!
What if that eunuch Zhang attacks Jiang Chen?!
His elder brother is waiting for Jiang Chen to treat him!
"Myna, I'm fine. I just went out with our county magistrate to meet an important person."
"By the way, you came at the right time. I have made the prosthetic leg. Let's go to General Luo together!" Jiang Chen said excitedly.
……
"What!? You've made your prosthetic leg!?"
When Marquis Jian'an heard Jiang Chen's words, he couldn't help but exclaimed!
As for Jiang Chen's visit to Eunuch Zhang's house, he had forgotten about it!
After Jiang Chen got his artificial leg, they went to General Luo's house together.
When General Luo heard that Jiang Chen and Marquis Jian'an had arrived, he hurried out to greet them!
"Greetings, General!" Jiang Chen saluted General Luo with a smile on his face.
"No need to be polite!"
"Jiang Chen, you...you are here, does it mean that the thing is ready?" General Luo asked excitedly when he saw Jiang Chen coming.
"General, it's ready!"
"Let's go meet the eldest master!" Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"Good good!"
Upon hearing this, General Luo hurriedly brought Jiang Chen and Marquis Jian'an to the backyard.
At this moment, this small courtyard is completely different from what it was a few days ago!
A few days ago, the small yard was a mess.
But now it is clean and tidy.
It seems that the eldest master has really regained his fighting spirit!
"Godfather, I'll go help my elder brother out!"
Marquis Jian'an didn't wait for Jiang Chen and General Luo to speak, and hurried into the room to help the big man.
"Jiang Chen, if you can cure my boss, I will reward you handsomely! Definitely!"
General Luo said this with great excitement.
When Jiang Chen heard what General Luo said, he had already started to make plans in his mind.
Even if General Luo is not the best in the military, he is almost there.
If I had the favor of General Luo, the honeycomb charcoal business would be easier to handle in the future.
……
However, it’s a good thing that the news of him taking Eunuch Zhang as his adoptive father has not been spread out, otherwise... General Luo would definitely not have this attitude towards him!
After a while, Marquis Jian'an came out with a big man!
"Brother Jiang! You're here!"
The big man became excited when he saw Jiang Chen.
"Please take a seat, sir. I will massage your prosthetic leg right away." Jiang Chen said with a faint smile.
"Good good!"
When the big man heard Jiang Chen's words, he hurriedly sat on the stone bench.
Jiang Chen took out his wooden leg and walked over.
When he opened the linen wrapped around the wooden leg, General Luo and the other two were stunned!
"This... this is too realistic!"
"In just three days, you have created this amazing prosthetic leg! Jiang Chen... you are truly a talent!"
"Brother Jiang, I feel... my leg will definitely heal!"
The three of them were talking excitedly, but Jiang Chen did not reply. Instead, he installed the artificial leg on the big man.
"My Lord, please stand up and try!"
After Jiang Chen was safe, he stood up and stood aside.
"it is good!"
The big man said excitedly.
He has been waiting for this day for too long!
Can he...can he finally stand up!?
Under the expectant gazes of everyone, the big man slowly stood up.
You know what, after he stood up, he was really no different from an ordinary person!
"Big brother!"
"Feng'er!"
Marquis Jian'an and General Luo couldn't help but shout when they saw the big man stand up.
The two men's eyes were filled with tears, and Jiang Chen's nose was sore when he saw them like that.
The big man was also very excited at this time!
He kept taking deep breaths, feeling his artificial leg.
Finally, he started to move!
Marquis Jian'an and General Luo both held their breath when they saw this scene!
This... is a crucial step!
