"Businessmen are very profitable, and no one will have trouble with money. Although Yaoshen Group has the largest retail channel for medicinal materials in the country, the profits obtained by the medicinal herb merchants are very low, far less than the value that Chinese patent medicine factories bring to them. Secondly, the blockade order issued to us by the medicinal herb merchants this time is a forced and helpless move, as long as someone is willing to stand up and oppose it, it will disappear immediately. Su Tao smiled confidently.

Chu Huilin was not so optimistic, "The Medicine God Group is in an unshakable position in Hecheng, and it is still not very difficult to make the medicinal herb merchant go against his wishes. ”

Su Tao sneered: "Then we have to let the status of the Medicine God Group move, and let those medicinal herb merchants suffer a little." ”

Chu Huilin was slightly stunned, realizing that Su Tao had other back-ups.

Su Tao chose to take the initiative and no longer sit still.

He wants to let those medicinal herb merchants taste the bitterness, and at the same time, he also wants Wang Guofeng behind the scenes to be punished as he deserves.

After chatting with Chu Huilin for a while, Su Tao stopped a taxi and went to She Wei's residence. She Wei now controls the resources of the Nie family and has a certain status in Hecheng, and if she wants to wrestle with the Medicine God Group, she has to ask She Wei for help.

After more than half a year of recuperation, She Wei's body has improved a lot, her face is very good, she is not so thin, and she has completely quit drug addiction.

The house is very spacious, and the lawn in the courtyard is carefully maintained, although in autumn, it is still full of greenery, and the flower beds in the corners, the fragrance of osmanthus flowers in it is pleasant.

When She Wei waited for Su Tao for a long time, she set up a table of wine in the living room, Cai Yan's father Cai Zhongpu wore an apron around his waist, and Zhang Luo Su Tao sat down.

"Aunt Wei, when are you and Uncle Cai going to invite us to a wedding wine?" Su Tao quipped while Cai Zhongpu was not in front of him.

She Wei and Cai Zhongpu are in a good relationship now under the mediation of Cai Yan, although they have not talked about marriage, but it can be seen that the relationship is harmonious, just a layer of window paper, Su Tao simply pierced it.

"Stinky boy, what are you talking nonsense?" She Wei picked up the chopsticks, knocked them on the back of Su Tao's hand, and then deliberately changed the topic, "The materials you asked me to investigate are all ready." Are you sure you want to do it, though?"

Su Tao nodded very seriously, and said in a deep voice: "Huaxia's medicinal material market is too chaotic, if you want to go further, you must treat it with heavy hands." ”

She Wei smiled bitterly: "If you do this, you will inevitably become the enemy of many medicinal herb merchants. ”

Su Tao smiled: "Barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes." I've been their enemy for a long time, am I still afraid that they won't succeed?"

She Wei was slightly stunned, Su Tao made sense, and said with emotion: "I have also persuaded a few friends who are engaged in the medicinal materials business, but they are very firm in the blockade of Sanwei Pharmaceutical, Wang Guofeng promised them heavy profits, and the newly merged Chinese patent medicine factory of Yaoshen Group can create hundreds of millions of profits for them." ”

Su Tao smiled faintly and said, "I'm not just here to vent my anger, but to purify the market, you know!"

A smile appeared on the corner of She Wei's mouth and said, "I support you!"

Su Tao is planning to completely tear his face with the medicinal herb merchants.

After eating, She Wei took out a thick stack of materials from the study and handed them to Su Tao, these were all black materials that the Nie family secretly sorted out back then, and they were prepared in order to blackmail the medicinal herb merchants, but Nie Haitian didn't wait for that day, so the information was sealed in the dust.

After Su Tao returned to the hotel, he first carefully read the information, and then dialed the phone number of Chen Guang, the chief reporter of "Nanyue Metropolis Daily".

In the process of exposing the negative news of the charity industry, Chen Guang showed the backbone of the newsman, which Su Tao admired very much, so Su Tao decided to contact Chen Guang to find a breakthrough in public opinion.

"Reporter Chen, I now have a shady information on the national medicinal herb trade, I don't know if you are interested in in-depth investigation!" Su Tao asked in a slightly serious tone.

Chen Guang had a good impression of Su Tao, and when he first exposed the shady story of the charity fund, with the help of Su Tao, his daughter survived, so he owed Su Tao a favor.

And with the help of that news, Chen Guang's status in the unit has also gone further.

He did not hesitate to state: "If the material is true, of course I will report it!"

Chen Guang has a keen sense of news and vaguely guesses that this will be a big news.

Chen Guang's reaction was expected by Su Tao, and Su Tao smiled: "I'll send the materials to your mailbox later." ”

Chen Guang nodded and said, "After I read the information, let's discuss how to deal with it!"

Hanging up the phone, Chen Guang quickly received Su Tao's information, he briefly browsed, a different color flashed in his eyes, and he was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that there were so many urgent problems in the inconspicuous Chinese herbal medicine industry.

In the eyes of the vast majority of people, there are many hidden rules in Western medicine, such as the cost of pills is very low, and after the operation of medical representatives and hospitals, they are sold at very expensive prices, which leads to the problem of difficult treatment today.

In fact, there are similar problems in traditional Chinese medicine.

Chen Guang brewed a little, and began to write an in-depth report on the Chinese herbal medicine industry based on the materials, because the information is very detailed, so the length is very large, and it needs to be published in the form of continuous reports.

The next morning, the first blockbuster report that shocked the whole country was published in the core section of Nanyue Metropolis Daily, titled "Are Chinese herbal medicines really that expensive?"

Because the author is the chief author Chen Guang, he was instantly reprinted and concerned by major media across the country.

Chen Guang wrote in the news: "The Chinese herbal medicine, which is supposed to cure diseases and save people, has also been purchased and hoarded in large quantities by a small number of unconscionable medicinal material dealers, resulting in soaring prices in recent years, and ordinary patients sigh and suffer unspeakably when they look forward to medicine."

As the government has relaxed its control over the prices of Chinese herbal medicines in recent years, a small number of businessmen have seen that they are profitable, and have adopted hoarding and monopoly methods to control the prices of Chinese herbal medicines commonly used in the market and raise the prices for huge profits. Panax notoginseng, the main production area of traditional Chinese medicine, was only 70 yuan/kg two years ago, and the wholesale price of the origin has reached 850 yuan/kg in the first half of this year, and the retail price of Yunhai is as high as 1,100 yuan/kg, an increase of more than 10 times! The above-mentioned herb franchisees all took advantage of the drought and natural disasters to hoard a large number of them, and then sold them at high prices for huge profits.

In order to maximize profits, a small number of unscrupulous businessmen have even adopted a large area of enclosure to contract the production area of medicinal materials, such as Changbai Mountain, the main drug-producing mountains have been contracted by all the enclosures, and the prices of medicinal materials produced have been artificially controlled and manipulated, two years ago, 240 yuan/kg of raw dried ginseng doubled in just one year, and the price will continue to rise this year. Another example is the Cordyceps sinensis in Yushu, the main producing area, the purchase price was 90,000 yuan/kg two years ago, and the price of the origin has soared to 140,000 yuan/kg in the first half of this year.

The government should take measures to stabilize prices in response to the hoarding of a small number of agricultural and sideline products in the previous paragraph, and introduce a policy to deal with the current chaos of "garlic you ruthless" in the Chinese herbal medicine industry. ”

Chen Guang's news, like a gust of storm, has made the field of Chinese herbal medicine widely concerned.

Vice Premier Xiao of the State Council, who was a loyal reader of Chen Guang, immediately gave instructions after reading this report, asking the relevant departments in charge of Chinese herbal medicine to draw up corresponding systems and regulations as soon as possible, and at the same time to find typical examples and deal with those medicinal material dealers who destroy market prices according to law, so as to stifle this bad phenomenon.

Hecheng is the capital of medicine, and the news of these policies soon spread, and the medicinal herb merchants are panicked.

In addition, there is also a small news spreading, some people revealed that it was Su Tao, the owner of Sanweitang, who handed over the materials to Chen Guang, which was a counterattack to the medicinal herb dealers to block the purchase channels of raw materials to Sanwei Pharmaceutical.

Of course, the source of this gossip is naturally the rumor that Su Tao asked Chu Huilin to let out, and it is to let the medicinal herb merchant know his means.

The medicinal herb merchants couldn't sit still, so they went to Wang Guofeng together and set up a table of wine in the best restaurant in Hecheng.

Qingfu Restaurant is located near Yaowangyuan, which belongs to the first grade of the restaurant in Hecheng, and the medicinal herb merchants are frequent customers here, so the restaurant has nothing to say about the service provided to them.

But these medicinal herb merchants are all worried, just got the news that the central investigation team has arrived in Hecheng, and will soon start investigating the medicinal herb market.

Wang Guofeng walked into the box under the guidance of the waiter, and he also brought a beautiful young woman, everyone in the circle knew that Wang Guofeng was not very interested in jerky girls, and he especially liked married young women.

Wang Guofeng sat down, greeted everyone for a while, and then talked to the young woman biting her ear.

Lai Rong, the medicinal herb merchant who was the leader, finally couldn't sit still and said, "Wang Dong, you also saw the news, right?"

Wang Guofeng glanced at it and wrote lightly: "I heard some gossip, now I know why I asked you not to provide supplies to Sanwei Pharmaceutical, right?"

Lai Rong cried with a sad face, and said in his heart that if he hadn't torn his face with Su Tao and hadn't torn his face with Su Tao, he would not have caused such a big trouble, and he said helplessly: "Now that it's such a big fuss, the central government has also sent an investigation team, there must be a solution, right?"

"I've already thought of a solution. Wang Guofeng lowered his voice and said, "Actually, the central investigation team just wants a result, if you give him the result and complete the task, then won't it?"

When Lai Rong heard Wang Guofeng say this, his eyes lit up, he gave a thumbs up, and said, "Wang Dong, you are smart!"

Wang Guofeng simply ate a few bites of food, and then found an excuse to leave, after all, now these medicinal herb merchants have unclean buttocks, and they can't be involved too much with them, and the solution has been handed over to them, it depends on whether they know how to find some backs.

After Wang Guofeng left, Lai Rong began to discuss with the medicinal herb merchants, "The matter has received the attention of the central government, and we must find two or three top pots, what suggestions do you have?"

Lai Rong's meaning is very simple, since the central investigation team wants results, then they will push a few small medicinal herb merchants out and let them take the blame, so as to deal with this crisis.

In this way, not only can the investigation team return with a full load, but also let them escape accountability.

After speaking, the medicinal herb merchants began to discuss in a few words, making some lists, most of which were competitors with whom they had had a holiday.
