Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 241 Chapter 241 The first pot of gold earned by selling herbs
The second batch of [-] Qu clansmen arrived at Huangsha City at the end of spring plowing.

After the first batch of people lived in Huangsha City for a while, they felt that life in Huangsha City was not much better than life in the desert, so they went back and sincerely persuaded the remaining Qu people, with their There are many real examples, and the rest of the Qu people are eager to move.

So this group of people gathered a thousand people and came to Huangsha City in a mighty way, unlike the last time there were only more than [-] people who were worried.

This group of Qu people was quickly allocated houses, land, grain and fruit and vegetable seeds. With the help of the Qu people who came earlier, they quickly completed spring plowing and quickly adapted to life in Huangsha City.

With the previous resettlement experience and the help of the Qu people, the relocation went very smoothly this time. The number of people in Huangsha City has successfully exceeded [-]. When the third batch of Qu people arrive before the autumn harvest, they can successfully break through the [-] mark.

This is the size of the population of a small city. Although Huangsha City had tens of thousands of people in its heyday, [-] people can barely support it.

In addition, there are people who have defected one after another, and it is not too far away to restore the glory of the past.

Mu Yu is still busy studying medicine at Taoyuan Academy and planting various improved herbs.

She has planted a lot of well-thought-out herbs in a small manor allotted to her, about two to three hundred acres. These herbs are undoubtedly processed, and their efficacy is two or three points stronger than normal herbs. Several doctors It is said that it is very rare, and it is not a problem to sell it at a price several times higher than the market price.

Naturally growing herbs is a business that makes more money than growing food. The reason why few people do it is because most farmers don’t know how to serve herbs, and the second is because herbs need to be sold to realize their value, which is very risky.

For those who have no family background, if the herbal medicines for this year are not sold, they will have no money to buy food, have nothing to eat, and will starve to death.

There is no such trouble in growing food. There is no such thing as unsalable food, and even if the food cannot be sold, you can keep it for yourself.

The third is because most farmers do not have access to sell herbs.

The herbal medicine market in a small place is only so small, and someone has already occupied it, and those who grow herbal medicine have no place to sell it, so they can only reduce the price at the market. It is not much better to grow grain. If the market is not good in a year, Even more sad.

If it is sent to another place, the delay in the freight on the road is another expense. The cost is too high and the risk is high. Ordinary farmers simply do not have the courage and insight to do so.

But now...

She will try her best to eliminate these worries of the common people and turn Huangsha City into a hometown of herbal medicine.

……

In April, when the peach and pear blossoms were in full bloom, Yuan Rong brought the caravan to Huangsha City again.

He came with many businessmen from other places. After watching, they confirmed that Huangsha City was safe. After hearing that Huangsha City was open, they flocked here.

This wave is just a test, it doesn't matter if you make money or not, the main thing is to check the specific situation of Huangsha City, and you will come here next time to make money.

Now that everything in Huangsha City is on the right track, Mu Yu is no longer afraid that foreign businessmen will have an impact on the existing system.

Merchants who come to do business have to go to the government office to file for the record, so they are not afraid that they will make something big happen.

Mu Yu drank tea with Yang Shuang at ease, discussing about herbal medicine.

She intends to make herbal medicines from her small manor a typical case to encourage people to plant herbal medicines, so she has to sell a batch of herbal medicines at a good price, preferably in Huangsha City.

Considering the quantity and price of this batch of herbs, only big merchants can eat them.

And she already has this candidate, Jinzhou Yuanjia.

Although the Yuan family is famous for its herbal medicine business and restaurant business, it is a big family with a history of more than a hundred years, and it also has some involvement in other businesses, such as herbal medicine.

In winter, Yuan Dang sent a letter asking about the whitening ointments she gave the third princess. He was not stupid enough to compete with the third princess for business, but just asked if she had any other miraculous ointment prescriptions. The Yuan family can help promote.

She said at the time that there were several prescriptions, but she hadn't researched them thoroughly, so she asked him to wait for a while.

Besides, she knew from Wen Wang's letter that in order to expand the business of Taoyuan Restaurant and Taoyuan Winery in various places in Southern Qi, both Zheng Cheng and Yuandang were busy, so they even wrote a letter to teach her how to do things , A letter to continue to cooperate, it is too dedicated.

With the spiritual spring water in the mustard space, it is not difficult to make miraculous ointments and pills, but right now she hopes to develop herbal medicine business first, and then upgrade the industry on this basis.

The reason why she came to drink tea with Yang Shuang at this time was to wait for Yuan Rong.

Sure enough, Yuan Rong did not disappoint her, and he came to visit Yang Shuang not long after, his eyes were full of joy of reunion.

Yang Shuang is very calm, completely treating ordinary friends.

Mu Yu waited for them to finish their interaction and when the atmosphere fell silent, he decisively opened his mouth to rescue them and talked about the herbal medicine business.

Although Yuan Rong was troubled by love, he was not completely in a daze, and the business chat went smoothly.

"If it is true as the city lord said, those herbs have several times the efficacy of ordinary herbs, then it is no problem to sell them for several times the price of ordinary herbs, and the Yuan family will eat all of these herbs."

"Of course the medicine is effective. You are here with a doctor, right? You can let them go and have a look."

Yuan Rong nodded. His caravan was accompanied by a well-known doctor and two apprentices. There were also many doctors in the other businessmen's team. These people were enough to identify them.

So the three of them went to the small manor of the medicine.

At that time, there was no class in the afternoon, so all the workers in the manor were there, and Mu Yu didn't hide from them that it was a foreign businessman who came to investigate herbal medicine, and let them watch the excitement.

The steward of the manor brought some mature herbs and asked several doctors to identify them. The doctors carefully identified them, and the onlookers were very nervous.

Mu Yu is relaxed, she already knew the result.

Sure enough, not long after, several doctors nodded, saying that the quality of these herbal medicines is indeed good, and their efficacy is at least twice that of the common herbal medicines in the market, and they are treasures among the treasures.

Yuan Rong was surprised and pleasantly surprised. Herbs are not rare, but good ones are rare. The value of these herbs is very marketable in his eyes as he grew up in a merchant family. He immediately said that he wanted all these herbs, and the price was negotiable.

The onlookers were also very surprised, so it was done?

Mu Yu smiled meaningfully, deliberately said directly in front of everyone,

"This is the first business transaction. I don't know how much these herbs are worth. For the time being, they will be calculated at three times the market price. After Master Yuan sells these herbs and understands the market, what will be the price after further discussion?"

Yuan Rong naturally agreed, and the business was negotiated so lightly by the two of them.

The onlookers were shocked.

They are all people who have passed the first test. They are considered half-doctors. Apart from the high wages and easy work here, many of them have the idea of ​​planting herbs and selling them in the future, so they come here to practice their hands in advance.

Of course they knew that herbal medicine was more profitable than food, but they didn't expect to sell it at such a high price so easily.

Three times the market price, wouldn't that be a lot more than they thought?

And this businessman agreed so happily?
I'm afraid this is going to make a fortune...

At this moment, many people are determined to plant herbs in the future.
