"Say."

Dongfang Bai reaped the gong and opened his eyes.

Yao Yutian said: "Ruan Wuzheng, the head of the Yamen team in the county seat, went to Xiaoxi Village, Woniu Village, Heyu Village and other places to start purchasing medicinal materials, mainly medicinal materials for hemostasis and healing. ”

"It's the new Ruan brothers from the Yamen?" Dongfang Bai raised his eyebrows and said with a calm expression: "They are all disciples of the Medicine King Sect, just like Wu County Lieutenant. ”

"Yes."

Yao Yutian nodded: "The Medicine King Sect is one of the three major sects in Qingzhou, with a heritage of four hundred years, and is extremely good at alchemy, and the pills produced are quite famous in Kyushu. ”

"Even they have started to hoard medicinal herbs, it seems that there has really been a big change in the county!"

"That's not right."

Dongfang Bai opened his mouth and corrected: "It's Qingzhou that has changed!" ”

Yao Yutian's pupils dilated, his face was solemn, and he didn't dare to answer for a while.

An innate master can be in a county, but in a state, he is like duckweed, and if he doesn't pay attention to his life, he will be beaten away by the wind and rain. Dongfang Bai also had a strong sense of crisis in his heart, from a close point of view, the five innate masters in the county government were enough to exert huge pressure on the Holy Sect, and the Danhuo Hall, which had been managed with great difficulty, was in danger of being subverted.

Looking at it from a distance, an incident that can affect the entire Qingzhou, even if it is a small thing, is enough to put them in a crisis.

A grain of ash in Qingzhou,

can crush the sky of Tonghai County.

Pray that the incident will not spread to Tonghai County, but it is better to find a way to strengthen its own strength.

"We must break through the innate realm as soon as possible!"

Oriental white heart hair tightened.

Because, to be precise, at the moment when Yaowangzong came to Tonghai County to purchase medicinal materials, a mountain of dust turned into a grain of dust had already smashed down on the heads of tens of thousands of people in a county, and there was nowhere to hide.

Yao Yutian said: "My subordinates have the courage to advise whether to stop purchasing wound medicine, so as not to conflict with the Medicine King Sect." At the moment, first of all, it is impossible to attract the attention of Wu County Lieutenant, otherwise, some actions of the Holy Sect may fall into the eyes of the government. ”

"There's no way to avoid it." Dongfang Bai narrowed his eyes: "We have been purchasing medicinal materials for more than half a month, hoarding more than 2,000 catties of medicinal materials, refining healing pills day and night. ”

"Ruan Wuzheng has been buying for a while, and he will find that the reserves of medicinal materials are greatly insufficient, and he will soon find out about He Chuntang."

"Stopping now is tantamount to surrendering on your own initiative, and then the Medicine King Sect may even take us under the knife."

Yao Yutian's expression was helpless.

People are appointed officials of the imperial court, and to deal with ordinary local gentry, there are naturally countless means, and they can kill if they want to, and they will be slaughtered.

"Instead of letting go now, it is better to continue to pay close attention to the acquisition of medicinal materials, and earn one more point."

Dongfang Bai reminded: "Every point of accumulation now is a point of strength to deal with the crisis in the future, and the strength should still be in your own hands. ”

"The Sect Master's admonition is reasonable."

Yao Yutian bowed: "The subordinates are reckless." ”

"Continue to purchase medicinal materials and refine pills, but try not to clash head-on with the Medicine King Zongqi, let the business return to the business in advance, and also buy us some time."

Dongfang Bai confessed.

Yao Yutian nodded: "Please rest assured, the sect master belongs to the province." ”

"Although the seventeen pharmacies in Tonghai County are ours, the outside world only knows that three belong to me, and the rest are all under the names of other disciples."

"I asked 17 pharmacies to go and buy medicinal materials, and not long after Wu County Wei entered the county, he won't be able to find me for a while, and there is still a lot of time to buy medicinal materials."

"I'm relieved." Dongfang Bai finally smiled.

Then, Yao Yutian handed over the newly refined twenty Zhuji Dan, he took the pill casually, and then called the Dharma Protector Ren Qiongfei to hand over the pill to him along with the ghost market silver ingot.

"Belong to it!"

Ren Qiongfei has already gone to see Dan three times, and he is able to do things back and forth, and he has to change his appearance when he returns.

Di Ya was quite surprised every time he saw it, but he didn't expect that a broken demon sect that had been pursued by the imperial court still had so many innate masters hidden in it.

Dongfang Bai took into account the risk of going to the ghost market to trade, unless it was a special case, the matter would be handed over to his subordinates.

Under a hill shaped like a lying cow, several young people in the village are leading several officials over the mountains and mountains to the village, where the wooden houses built on the mountain stretch along the terraced fields.

Qingzhou has many mountains and few fields, most of the fields are opened in the mountains, and they climb high one by one, which is like a ladder to the sky.

Although, the people rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the mountains to eat, rely on the mountain medicinal materials, animal skins live a good life, but every cent of the material is to compete with the sky, with their lives to the mountains to find, in the end can not compare to Pingzhou, the farmers in the middle of the continent are stable.

At this time, Ruan Wuzheng came to the village under the leadership of the village head, and saw that the herbs were drying at the door of each household, and said with satisfaction: "Go and explain to the villagers that all the medicinal materials will be added to the purchase price of the merchant and sold to me." ”

"Okay, Lord Ruan."

"I thank you first of all for the villagers." The head of the village bowed with a flattering expression, waved his hand, and immediately took people to knock on the door door to inform him: "There are big officials from the imperial court who have come to the village to buy medicinal materials." ”

"The price is more than the merchant's purchase."

In the past, if the villagers heard the news, they would be overjoyed and hurriedly sell the medicine, but now they looked suspicious and asked with puzzlement: "Li Tou, the merchant has not been here for more than a month." ”

"Who sells the goods to the merchant?"

"The pharmacy in the county has people coming to collect medicinal herbs every day."

Li Tou looked simple, his face was chapped, his palms were full of calluses, but there was a hint of cunning on his face, and he said in a low voice: "Can selling to the people in the county pharmacy be the same as selling to the official master?" ”

"The one who came to collect the medicinal herbs was Lord Ruan, the head of the yamen team, the senior brother of the new county lieutenant, who served him well. In the future, if you compete for water with Wangjia Village, you can die a few fewer people with a little help and say a few words. ”

When the villagers heard this, they all felt justified.

"Got it, Li Tou."

"Bring the herbs out."

Ruan Wuzheng is wearing a gray robe of a servant, hanging a waist knife, is standing on the edge of the paddy field to enjoy the beautiful scenery, once upon a time, he is also a mountain citizen in the village, the family is only two tea mountains, 100 acres of terraced fields, the province of the clan is thrifty to cultivate two brothers to worship the medicine king sect, and then return to the mountains and wilderness There is a kind of big husband returning, high-spirited.

At this time, the two officials beside him saw the villagers moving out the medicinal materials, putting them into sacks and starting to pack them, their faces showed a look of satisfaction, and some people smiled and flattered: "Lord Ruan is really considerate and loves the people, so they don't have to move the medicinal materials to the county to sell." ”

"yes."

"The country merchant is like a hungry wolf, and he has to exploit it every time."

Ruan Wuzheng looked at the cart full of firewood, walked over and took out some, touched it with his hand, frowned and said, "Li Cuntou, why is the quality of medicinal materials so unbearable?" ”

"Lord Ruan, can't this herb be used in medicine?" Zhang Huang, who was frightened by Li Village, begged in a low voice: "These are the best medicinal materials in the village." ”

"It's not that it can't be used in medicine, it's just that the quality of the medicinal materials is poor, and the effectiveness of the pill is also poor." Ruan Wuzheng was born in the Medicine King Sect, and he had a bit of experience in the refining of pills.

He put the herbs back in the bag and rubbed the dust off his fingers.

Li Cuntou swallowed his saliva: "Lord Ruan, are these medicinal materials still ......?"

"And also!"

Ruan Wuzheng chuckled and said, "I bought it at the original price, but I want to know where the good medicinal materials went." ”
