Chapter 34 Medicinal Herb Business
In the afternoon, Xiao Junmo took Chi Wanwan to continue to inspect the remaining villages, and Zhao Tingshi has been accompanying him and showing loyalty from time to time.
"Lord Wang, for the sake of Qingping County, the lower officials can be said to have worked hard, in order to get the disaster relief funds from the imperial court, the lower officials begged people everywhere for a relationship."
"It's a pity that the imperial court's disaster relief silver taels are barely enough for the daily expenses of the people, and in order to repair the canals and divert water from other places, the lower officials are even more bankrupt, smashing pots and selling iron, but despite this, the silver taels raised are also very meager, and after repairing a short section, the money can only be dissipated."
Zhao Tingshi was very moved, and he couldn't help but blush at his actions.
Most of the officials who accompanied him had come to provide disaster relief before and had a relationship with him.
He felt that Xiao Junmo was here, except for a few entourages, there was no one available at all.
In the capital, they were not satisfied, and they were harassed by the prince several times, and finally let the emperor punish the prince by selling miserably, but they were the prince, and they still held the military power in their hands, so they were afraid.
Since he didn't find any evidence, he didn't mind pretending to be pitiful in front of King Jingnan.
"That's a lot of hard work." Xiao Junmo praised him, this cheekiness can't be pierced with a sword.
Zhao Tingshi thought that Xiao Junmo's favorability towards him had increased, and he didn't stay long, worried that things would be reversed, so he said goodbye and went back.
"Lord Wang, he can really talk nonsense." Chi Wanwan's face was full of disgust, it was too shameless, and it was better than a small system.
"Host, please don't quietly slander me." The voice of the small system sounded at the right time.
Chi Wanwan didn't bother to pay attention to it, and continued to complain with Xiao Junmo.
"Originally, I wanted to tell the host that there are a lot of medicinal herbs on the mountain of Dayang Village, but now that I think about it, forget it."
The soft and cute tone of the system is full of sighs and sadness.
This stupid kid, who has said it all, Chi Wanwan pity the IQ of the small system, and after two seconds of silence, he pushed Xiao Junmo.
"Lord, I want to go to the mountains and go around again." It would be great if you could find a medicinal herb to treat Xiao Junmo's toxin.
"Okay, this king is with you."
Xiao Junmo is not worried that Chi Wanwan is alone, now is an extraordinary time.
"It's okay, I can ask Zhao Xiaosan for help." Xiao Junmo has difficulty moving, how could Chi Wanwan trouble him.
"Then the king is going to be together." Xiao Junmo's smiling eyes suddenly turned cold, and he was still a little lost.
Chi Wanwan didn't know why, which of her words provoked the big golden legs, since Xiao Junmo insisted on going, she went to rent a sedan chair.
The last person to accompany them up the mountain was Zhao Xiaosan's younger brother, Goudan.
A group of them found a large number of wild Poria cocos in the mountains, and thanks to a large basket made of bamboo, they collected a basket full of them.
"You can take these poria cocos back and sell them to the pharmacy to earn some subsidies." Chi Wanwan distributed one-third of Poria cocos to the dog's eggs.
"No, this is something that the princess found, and the grass people can't ask for it."
Dogan shirked, he was a simple and honest person, and he accompanied Xiao Junmo and them up the mountain, also because of his brother's orders, Zhao Xiaosan specially instructed him not to take other people's things casually.
"Then most of these are still picked by you, take it, you deserve it, and I took advantage of you."
Chi Wanwan's attitude is tough, and the dog's house is almost unable to open the pot, it all depends on Zhao Xiaosan alone, and there is not much harvest in the field this year.
"Thank you...... Princess Xie. "The dog is not very old, not to mention the noble identity of the person in front of him, where can he speak, and he is not very easy to talk, and he is stumbling.
"If the princess doesn't dislike it, let's go to the grass people's house for dinner, the grass people picked a lot of wild mushrooms, and just caught a pheasant in the morning."
took a third of the Poria cocos, and the dog was upset, and inviting him to eat was the only thing he could do.
"Chicken stew with mushrooms, okay." Chi Wanwan glanced at Xiao Junmo, he didn't resist the slightest dislike, and happily agreed.
The selling price of Poria cocos is considered to be on the high side of Chinese herbal medicine, and one-third of Poria cocos will not starve the dog's egg.
The dog's mother cooked quickly, because she wanted to entertain Chi Wanwan, and she also took out a small piece of bacon that she was reluctant to eat at home and cooked it, but was stopped by Chi Wanwan in time.
"Grandma, I and the prince don't like to eat bacon, so we want to eat chicken stewed mushrooms, I'm sorry for you."
The dog's mother was helpless, she didn't know what Chi Wanwan meant, and in the end, she couldn't help Chi Wanwan to speak well, so she had to give up.
A pot of chicken stewed mushrooms is fragrant and delicious, the atmosphere is harmonious, and after eating, a group of people sit on a small wooden stool and chat in the small courtyard.
"Grandma, when it's not time to be busy farming, you can go to the mountains to collect more medicinal herbs to buy, the mountains are very rich in medicinal herbs, and they can subsidize a lot of families."
Chi Wanwan said what she had been thinking about for a long time.
"What is the value of those weeds, the grass people still farm honestly." Grandma has been farming all her life for a living, where do you know what medicinal materials.
"Dog, your mother is also old, and the work of going up and down the mountain has to be a young man like you."
"When you go to sell Poria cocos tomorrow, ask the shopkeeper which medicinal materials are valuable, and let him show you what they look like, and it is best to take a plant as a sample and go to the mountains to find it, so that the probability of error is small."
Many plants look similar, and Chi Wanwan doesn't want to have a happy egg.
Goudan often followed Zhao Xiaosan to the county mansion, and he also gained some knowledge, but the princess's mother didn't take it seriously, but he took it to heart.
"Thank you, Princess." Goudan was grateful for Chi Wanwan's dedication, and he was also moved by the princess who was high up and willing to worry about their common people.
Maybe the two of them have good tempers and have no arrogance, and they are approachable, and when they left, the dog family was very reluctant.
"Grandma, I'll come back to see you when I have time."
Chi Wanwan took a few earthen eggs and motioned to his entourage to quietly put a few pieces of broken silver on the small wooden table of the dog's house.
On the way back, Chi Wanwan was still a little melancholy, she had never been so warmly entertained in modern times.
"Are you telling the truth? The matter of herbs? Xiao Junmo suddenly asked Chi Wanwan.
"Of course it's true, not only Dayang Village, but also several surrounding villages and mountains have a lot of herbs, but Dayang Village is the most abundant and has a wide variety of varieties."
Chi Wanwan was sure that she had gained a lot this time, and she also found two herbs that were helpful to Xiao Jun's poison.
"If these herbs are transported to the capital to be bought, will they be better sold?"
Xiao Junmo had a plan in his mind, but he wasn't sure if it was feasible for the time being.
"Of course, the most important thing in the capital is the rich people, don't they often spend a lot of money to seek precious medicinal materials, and the prince wants to do the herbal medicine business?"
Chi Wanwan raised her eyes and asked him curiously, this is a way to make money, if you do a good job, you can make a lot of money!
