It's midsummer and many medicinal materials are ripe.
In the fields of medicinal yam and medicinal herbs all over the mountains and plains, you can see hardworking people working happily everywhere.
Some farmers are even singing duet loudly.
There is a harvest scene everywhere.
On the North-South Post Road, a long caravan was traveling southward.
The bright characters "Su Lan" and "Ling" on the commercial vehicle are flying high.
Su Lanling's caravan.
One of the oldest and most famous large caravans in Yunchui.
At this time, the merchant leader Ling Yunsheng was no longer in his position, but huddled in the middle and rear of the caravan.
But when Qi returns, I do what I want.
"Yes." He Huigang nodded thoughtfully.
cough.
"That's the bad thing about the south. The weather is not only extremely cold, but it's also always clear and heavy. It looks like it's going to rain again."
Boom!
"Because of this, it is becoming more and more popular among people all over the world."
But to me, it doesn’t matter who is in charge of the medicinal fields, as long as the imperial court can provide enough medicinal materials to the frontiers in time, that’s all.
Ling Yunsheng coughed.
He Huigang was so angry that he stared at me.
"That's right." Chen Xiuzhu nodded heavily.
After saying that, I stretched out my head to look around, and for a while I nodded my head sadly.
At that time, I was seriously ill and sought medical treatment. Apart from guarding the mausoleum, my only thought at the time was to choose a reliable and pleasing son-in-law for my grandson among the 100,000 or so soldiers in the fortress.
"Just like Prince Han, I sell medicinal materials privately, but it's actually for myself, but to help He Huigang, let me sit in this position, and then get the disadvantages in return."
Even the young guard Huo Ling sent letters to Star City many times, but he never received enough equipment...
"Nonsense." Chen Xiuzhu laughed, not taking it seriously at all, "Baihua and Canglan counties have always had low temperatures and little rain, but it is precisely because of that climate that they are most suitable for the growth of various medicinal materials."
"Maimaipi!"
"We have weapons, food, and medicinal materials. What can we use to defend the border? When the battle is defeated and the enemy reaches Star City, we will have no more money and it will be useless!"
"Da Lingzi, he traveled around the empire all those years, so he should know less than you."
To be precise, they were crowded together with Tieguai Li and Gu Datou who were returning home from Yanji Fortress to visit relatives.
Having said that, Tieguai Li glanced at the newspaper.
"He knows?" Both He Huigang and He Huigang were a little surprised.
I turned my head and looked at Tieguai Li, who was silent and silent.
I have no minor injuries like broken hands and legs, but several pieces of flesh on my body have been damaged due to years of fighting, and there are scars everywhere. I fully understand the importance of medicine.
Those are still considered, and now there is even a faint tendency to sit down on this dragon's throne.
"So you think those medicinal fields should have been managed by the Ministry of Revenue in the past. If there was a war or disease in a certain place and a small amount of medicine was needed, the Ministry of Revenue could make the decision and pay for it as soon as possible."
"Now that the prince is suddenly deposed, you really know who is in charge of the medicine field behind him."
Although Chen Xiuzhu has been in Dingxi County for a long time, he hasn't been here for a long time. I know very few things.
Chen Xiuzhu thought to himself, then slapped his sore right leg casually.
He Huigang hit my crutch hard.
"It takes several months to walk from the fortress to the outside. He doesn't have many hairs on his body. I'm still vague?"
In the following years, the eldest grandson Li Hezhu, who had already grown up, still did not get married, which made Chen Xiuzhu, who was far away in the fortress, heartbroken.
Only then did Chen Xiuzhu understand.
"Who is managing the medicinal fields and mountains in Baihua and Canglan now, or are they controlled by a certain prince as in the past?"
He was one of the four little generals who became Xingluo, and even turned into the prince of the empire.
Ling Yunsheng chuckled and said, "Uncle Li, don't worry, this news must be true."
"Probably." Gu Datou also had some doubts in his eyes, but he still nodded firmly.
"In my free time now, the prince will tell you some of his ideas about governing the country."
"It's just..." Ling Yunsheng groaned, "I know that those medicines can be sent to the places that need them the most."
However, Ling Yunsheng frowned.
"You are too vague about such trivial royal matters."
After saying that, I was not lost.
Wow.
Ling Yunsheng smiled, "Were you always in the depths of the grassland after that? You happened to be doing a lot of things with Prince Ning and Lei Qi. For example, you didn't enter the Kailun Stone Forest..."
Could it be that the ancestral graves of my family have finally emitted smoke?
"Is this front-page headline true or false?"
Ling Yunsheng next to me suddenly opened and closed his mouth. Half a moment ago, my eyes fell on the newspaper, which still smelled of ink.
Tieguai Li smiled and shook his head, "Although the old man is right, everyone thinks that way."
"Now I'm telling you empty talk again, right?"
"Perhaps you know who will take over those medicine fields."
After saying that, I looked at the sky angrily.
Although Ling Yunsheng has become the commander of the Yongqi Battalion, in the hearts of the two of them, he has always been a small soldier who rushes into battle. I should be young in matters within the empire.
At that time, both Chen Xiuzhu and Tieguai Li fell silent.
"Since its inception, this newspaper has focused on being truthful and truly recording what happened in the empire and surrounding areas. It has never been like the street storytellers who talk nonsense or even talk nonsense."
"It turns out that a small part of the medicinal fields in Baihua and Canglan counties are managed by Prince Han of the Zongren Mansion. As for me, I prefer the former Prince of Qi...well, Gu Datou."
"Your Ling family is a businessman. My grandfather has always warned you that a caravan's survival depends on its reputation. And reputation is the most difficult thing to establish, but it is easy to destroy it. It often only takes one
This is an important event. You should bear this in mind."
"Then..." Tieguai Li smiled bitterly, "The old man thinks too much of you. The Ling family is not a special caravan. Although the scale is a bit smaller, it is still a caravan in essence."
"For example, if the prince is deposed, such a trivial matter cannot shock the government and the public. Regardless of whether it is true or false, the court will send official documents to each county to explain the situation as soon as possible. That newspaper is simply telling such a lie."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I pondered for a while and had to tell the truth, "That's true."
Chen Xiuzhu snorted warmly, "I'm still sober."
hehe.
"I think things related to national defense and people's livelihood must be firmly in the hands of the imperial court, so that they can play the smallest and worst role. For example, food, minerals, medicines, schools, hospitals and even roads and water conservancy in various places."
At this time, Chen Xiuzhu had never thought that his grandson-in-law, who he had casually appeared with little by little, would be so jaw-dropping when he came.
Only Sun Tzu became the commander of the fleet, and Sun’s son-in-law rose to the top step by step...
He had asked this question several times, but he still couldn't help but hesitate.
Tieguai Li, who was sitting in the commercial car, shook the brand new newspaper in his hand and scanned the front page headlines again and again with his eyes.
"Uncle Li, has his leg injury recurred again?"
"Gu Datou also made a lot of money because of this. The incident of me colluding with the Japanese pirates broke out, and the King of Han's secret selling of medicinal materials to make money was also exposed. My family is now either in jail awaiting trial, or demoted to a common people. As for
Those medicinal fields will be temporarily taken over by Cheng'en's Mansion or the Prince."
snort.
For example, after the small counterattack in Dingxi, the fortress was in shortage of various materials, such as iron ore, weapons, food and medicine.
Tieguai Li wiped his sweat repeatedly and said, "Don't be angry, old man. I dare you."
"Uncle Li..." Ling Yunsheng had something to do, so he talked about those things.
I pointed at the medicinal fields on both sides of the post road, which lead to the end.
"This is the worst." Ling Yunsheng nodded.
Ling Yunsheng quickly put down the newspaper and came over to help me rub my injured and disabled thigh.
"I just want to understand what these bastards are thinking. They all want to make money. Is it just some bad money? You will bring it with you in life and death. Is it enough to spend it?"
Having said this, he let out a long sigh.
There was a loud noise.
"It seems that the growth of the medicinal materials this year is wrong. The brothers on the battlefield are in trouble. They must have been injured, and the chance of survival is very small."
