Chapter 59: Lucheng
Ashijo has a large number of "useless" professions, pharmacists. Except for the pharmacists who can refine the experience pill, most of them have a very low status, because Lucheng has a large number of medicinal fields, and the medicinal materials are very cheap, it still attracts a large number of pharmacists to come to practice medicinal arts every year, and there are also merchants, and the cheap medicinal materials in Lucheng does not mean that the medicinal materials in other places are cheap.
However, because of the deliberate price reduction by the merchants, as well as the rise in food prices and other factors, many medicine farmers decided to switch to growing grain, and because of this, the interests of the local nobles, merchants and pharmacists were touched, so how could they profit from it.
A large number of policies to encourage medicine farmers to continue to grow medicinal materials appeared, but this aroused the anger of medicine farmers, and some medicine farmers even burned medicinal materials in front of the nobles. The two sides continued to fight coldly, and Yu Kun couldn't stand it anymore, so he transferred the city lord of Lucheng away, and then turned a blind eye and let these medicine farmers grow food.
Su Hongrui is a pharmacist, maybe he can change this situation, and how bad can it be?
"So the herbs are cheap?" Wouldn't it be okay to raise the price of medicinal herbs a little, it's a big deal to lose a little, it's better than not making no money.
"It's about one-third of the price of other countries...... "Primary medicinal materials are not very valuable in the first place, and they still suppress the price like this, so how can the medicine farmers live, so Yu Yan also understands these medicine farmers, to put it bluntly, these have no direct interest relationship with him, and if they have an interest relationship with him, they will stand on the side of the nobles."
"What level is the most powerful pharmacist?" If there is a master, then you can ask him for help, medicinal materials are to be planted, but the interests of medicine farmers must also be guaranteed, Su Hongrui began to plan these things in his mind, unlike the previous things of the ghost king, this time it all depends on wisdom!
"Rank 2 pharmacist, because the best medicinal herbs in Lucheng are Rank 2." Yu Yan is a little looking forward to this performance of eating soft rice, will this pharmacist who eats soft rice stand on the side of the medicine farmer or the noble?
"Is there a list?" Su Hongrui wanted to contact the pharmacists first, and then organize them, Su Hongrui valued cheap pharmacists more than medicinal materials......
"You can check it, everyone who comes to Lucheng has information." Everyone will have a record of coming to Lucheng, and of course there will be no God's chosen one.
"Hmm." Su Hongrui began to look forward to the next few days, the relationship between the pharmacist and the medicine farmer and the nobles still has interests, and he must understand the situation before he can make a real judgment.
After Su Hongrui came to Lucheng, he found that the environment here was really good, and there were green medicinal fields all the way, which was refreshing to see, and Su Hongrui even discovered the Dark Blood Grass......
"The pony is here, and we have been waiting for a long time." Several nobles had slightly perfunctory expressions, but they still did all the rituals that should be done.
"Well, how many are they?" Su Hongrui saw that there were only 6 nobles, and he didn't believe that there were only 6 nobles in the entire Lucheng (do you want people to bring their families to welcome you?). I was a little upset.
"I'm Yi, a baron." And because he wears casual clothes, he can't see any occupation.
"I'm a royal servant, a lord." He carries a giant sword on his back, and at first glance he looks like a warrior.
The rest are all quasi-lords, so I won't introduce them one by one.
"Then I'll ask a few people for the next few days, do you have a detailed copy about the medicine farmer wanting to grow food?" Su Hongrui wanted to solve this matter quickly and make some achievements for Yukun to see.
"Yes, however, this is related to the interests of the entire Lucheng, Master Pony can't be in a hurry, try to find a plan that satisfies everyone." I am also afraid that Su Hongrui will be the same as Yutian at the beginning, and the new official will take office with three fires, and directly let the medicine farmers grow grain or raise the price of medicinal materials.
"Well, I know it." How to satisfy everyone is the problem, Su Hongrui wants to gather these pharmacists, and then form a union or gang, and then use the resources here to refine a large number of medicines, and then sell the pills to those countries that are at war.
The blood berry is 5 copper in Luoli Country, and only 1 copper is here, no wonder these medicine farmers want to rebel.
After Su Hongrui understood the situation, he came up with a set of plans, that is, let the medicine farmers directly provide medicinal materials to the pharmacist, and then directly sell the pills to the merchants, and the supply of the pills was determined by them, so that everyone could make a profit from it.
Now it depends on these pharmacists, if the condensed milk fails too much or the refining speed is too slow, this will also lead to the failure of this opportunity, too many failures will reduce profits, too slow will lead to the accumulation of too many medicinal materials, these still depend on the strength of the pharmacist, not everyone has the skill of "Fire".
Moreover, how to distribute the benefits of pharmacists is also a problem, and this idea still needs to be adjusted after understanding the situation.
"Yuyan, let's go find the pharmacist in Lucheng!" Su Hongrui couldn't wait, he felt that the sooner he solved it, the better, so that he could show his ability.
"Well, let's go......" Yu Yan also understood that Su Hongrui was in a hurry to prove himself, but Yu Yan felt that it was better to go to the medicine farmer first, after all, this was the root of the problem.
However, Baron Yi didn't solve it, and it is estimated that Su Hongrui also knew that this aspect was not good, so he went to the pharmacist first.
Yuyan took Su Hongrui to the largest pharmacy in Lucheng, and it was better to understand the drug prices here before going to the next step.
The price of medicine here is a little more expensive than in other places, maybe because no one buys it, so it is simply a little more expensive, and you can make money by selling it......
It's all this kind of mentality, these pharmacists are also quite miserable, although the medicinal materials here are cheap, but the pills are even less valuable......
"May I talk to your steward?" Su Hongrui wanted to go directly to the steward to find out about the situation of the pharmacist in Lucheng, and then plan the next step.
"Yes, please come with me." Although this young man is very unfamiliar, the one behind him should be Viscount Yuyan. can let Viscount Yuyan follow behind, and the title should be higher.
"I'm Hu Yun Pharmacist from Lucheng, a second-order senior pharmacist." Hu Yun said politely after seeing the imperial words behind Su Hongrui, this young man can actually let the viscount follow behind, but why is he not impressed by this young man?
After seeing the identity of Su Hongrui's chosen person, Hu Tian instantly understood, eating soft rice! It's not just ordinary soft rice!
"My name is Su Hongrui, and I am also a pharmacist, but my level is relatively low." Su Hongrui should be a first-order senior pharmacist (his real strength is a high-level medicine boy), but if you want him to refine a second-order elixir, he can also refine it, and "Fire" is so capricious and powerful.
"Well, then Pharmacist Su is here to buy a prescription or a pill, and the pill will give you a discount!" Anyway, Hu Yun won't lose, the prescription says it's worth it, and it doesn't mean it's worth anything, so it depends on what the recipe is, and Hu Yun won't sell the valuable formula.
"No, I'm here to discuss the idea that the medicine farmer wants to change to grow food." As soon as Su Hongrui finished speaking, Hu Yun and the other pharmacists' faces changed instantly, this was the rhythm of taking them under the knife.
