Chapter 94: Hundred Herbs Shop and Ji Shi Pharmacy Hall
Baicao Shop is the largest medicine shop in Yunzhou City.
"Everyone will be dealt with according to military orders."
Zhao Jin left a few words and hurried to the herbal shop with Takeda.
When Zhao Jin arrived, Liang Qian was so quarreling with the people at the herbal shop that his face was red and his neck was thick, and the more than 20 soldiers behind him were almost ready to draw their swords.
"Liang Qian."
"Sir." Liang Qian lowered his head in shame, "My subordinates are incompetent and made such mistakes during the critical period."
It was clear that the plague was right in front of us and everything could be solved easily, but something went wrong in his hands.
Zhao Jin walked straight into the drug store without squinting, "If there is a problem, just find a way to solve it."
Along the way, Zhao Jin has calmed down.
Being angry can't solve anything. He must calm down as soon as possible before he can think about how to solve it.
"Master Zhao." The owner of the herbal medicine shop, who was fat and had a big belly, bowed perfunctorily to Zhao Jin.
Zhao Jin went straight to the topic, "There are no mandarin duck vines and even shells?"
The other party sighed helplessly, "Mr. Zhao, it's not that the common people don't want to help, it's just that there is really no other way. The mandarin duck vine and the shell are not commonly used medicinal herbs."
"General pharmacies don't keep much stock, so ordinary people really can't get these two kinds of medicine."
Liang Qian explained in a low voice in Zhao Jin's ear, "This is the owner of the Herbal Medicine Shop, Chen Kang, a branch of the Chen family."
"Really?" Zhao Jin looked at Chen Kang coldly, "If you are discovered by me, you will be executed according to law!"
Chen Kang showed a panicked look, "Master Zhao, please don't scare the common people. You really don't have any intention of doing that!"
"OK!"
Zhao Jin no longer struggled with this issue with Chen Kang, and instead asked: "Do you have any channels?"
These people have been running drug stores for many years and must have relevant channels.
Chen Kang's eyes rolled around a few times, "Yes, there is."
"Then let's just say that at this time, there is no time to delay."
"It's just..." Chen Kang looked embarrassed.
Zhao Jin's eyes were cold, "Just say it!"
"It's just that the price is probably much more expensive."
Coming.
Since they took such a big risk and hid the mandarin duck vines and shells, they must have a purpose.
Businessmen value profits, and even if Chen Jin is behind them, they will not risk their lives just because of this.
Especially for small and medium-sized drug stores, for them, this is not worth the loss.
But if there is huge profit in it...
Money moves people's hearts.
Zhao Jin put his hands behind his hands and said, "Speak frankly about how much money you need."
"The price will be more than five or six times more expensive than before."
Five or six times!
When Liang Qian heard this, he immediately drew his knife and stepped forward.
"Liang Qian!" Zhao Jin reached out to stop Liang Qian and shouted in a low voice.
"Sir, they are obviously!"
"I know."
If Zhao Jin was not sure before whether they still had Mandarin Duck Vine and Lian Ke, shopkeeper Chen’s words made Zhao Jin sure,
Zhao Jin kept staring at Chen Kang closely, "Since Mr. Chen has channels in his hands, it is better to hand them over directly to the government office."
"Before the disaster, if Yunzhou does not unite as one, it will be difficult to overcome the difficulties." Zhao Jin's tone contained a threat, "If the entire Yunzhou City is affected because of Shopkeeper Chen and others, I can only serve as a warning to others."
Chen Kang's expression changed, and he quickly smiled and said: "Sir, it's not that the common people are unwilling to hand it over, but that the other party is a drug dealer. Although they have cooperation with Yunzhou, they only recognize Yunzhou, and we, the drugstore shopkeepers,
.”
The implication is that even if Zhao Jin takes advantage of this channel, the other party will not recognize it.
Zhao Jin looked at Chen Kang's proud face and said slowly: "Liang Qian, search, even if the entire Yunzhou City is destroyed, we must find these two medicines for me!"
"Then I wish you, sir, to find him soon."
Zhao Jin threw up his sleeves and left.
Liang Qian immediately led a large-scale search in Yunzhou City. In order to speed up the search, he also mobilized a large number of troops to the military camp.
"What happened?"
Zhao Jin returned to the government office in a furious manner, and happened to meet Ning Ce who was returning from the military camp.
He simply told Ning Ce the matter.
"I'm afraid they are doing this because of the military pay." Zhao Jin's face was covered with frost.
The local power of Zhao State is very powerful.
Each vassal king only needs to pay a specified amount of taxes every year, and the rest can be left in the local area. The same goes for each county, which only needs to pay a certain amount of taxes to the fiefdom lord.
If it does not belong to a fief, it will be handed over directly to the court.
Therefore, the military pay seized by Zhao Jin can be directly deposited into the government treasury.
If the medicinal materials are obtained through the channels mentioned by Chen Kang, they will definitely have to use this batch of military pay.
"The Chen family is the leader of this matter." Ning Ce judged directly.
Zhao Jin leaned back on his chair, very tired, "After Xu Yongshen was imprisoned, they continued to attack the military pay. The only one who instigated this matter was Chen Jin. The others did not have the ability to swallow this huge sum of money."
"This search will yield no results." Ning Ce also felt deeply troubled.
Zhao Jin didn't know that if they dared to take action at such a critical moment, they must be well prepared and they would not easily find out where the batch of medicine was.
"Let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor."
After searching for most of the day, most of the pharmacies in Yunzhou City had been searched, but no trace of mandarin duck vines or even shells was found.
Just when Zhao Jin was at a loss, someone came to report.
"Sir, Xu Qing, the shopkeeper of Jishi Medicine Hall in the west of the city, would like to see you."
"Ji Shi Medicine Hall? Let him come in."
When he saw the other party, Zhao Jin was stunned for a moment.
Without him, the shopkeeper of this Jishi Medicine Hall turned out to be a woman.
Female shopkeepers were a rare creature in ancient times.
Xu Qing was always sensitive to people's emotions. He noticed Zhao Jin's surprise and couldn't help but frown.
"I wonder why Shopkeeper Xu came here?"
Xu Qing was always direct and did not argue with Zhao Jin. He said bluntly: "The common people have a large number of mandarin duck vines and shells in their hands, which can be sold to adults at cost price."
"What are Shopkeeper Xu's conditions?" Zhao Jin had to be wary of the unexpected pie.
After all, it was as if the drugstore shopkeepers in Yunzhou City had made an appointment. Every time Liang Qian asked one of them, he got exactly the same story.
On weekdays, mandarin duck vines and shells are rarely used and rarely survive.
As far as he knew, Jishi Medicine Hall was not as good as the Herbal Medicine Shop.
In Yunzhou City, it is also ranked first.
Xu Qing smiled and said, "The common people only have one condition."
"But it doesn't matter."
"From now on, the government office will only cooperate with Jishi Medicine Hall."
The government also needs medicinal materials, but generally the government directly cooperates with the largest drug store in the city.
Previously, the Yunzhou government office cooperated with Baicao Shop.
The herbal medicine store supplies the required herbs every month.
Zhao Jin did not immediately agree, "Shopkeeper Xu, the government office depends on the quality of the medicinal materials."
"The common people know your consideration," Xu Qing said confidently, "Ji Shi Medicine Hall can guarantee the quality of the medicinal materials provided, so you don't have to worry about this."
"It's quite tempting." Zhao Jin locked eyes with Xu Qing.
No matter who the government cooperates with, there is no loss.
"I want to know why?"
