Chapter 129 Going to Cheng'an to Buy Medicine

Lao Xu's ability to handle affairs is still very fast. In less than half a day, he sorted out the situation on the ship. The main reason is that there is not enough medicine. There was a plague, and there was no place to replenish the medicinal materials along the way, so the medicine is naturally not enough now.

Li Wei saw that Lao Xu made a list of the required medicines, mainly common medicinal materials such as Chuanxiong, Platycodon grandiflorum, Bupleurum, and Poria cocos for wind-cold, wind-heat and cold. These medicines are not difficult to find in normal times, but now It has become a precious life-saving medicine.

There are medicines in Li Wei's system, but with so many people and such a large amount, even if they take it, they have to find a reason.

"Is there a county town or a market town in front of here? Let the boat stop for a while, and let's go down to buy medicine."

What Li Wei thought was that as long as the boat docked, she would go down and take a stroll, and then she would be able to take out the medicinal materials and cross the road.

Ke Mo was so overwhelmed that his face was heavy and he didn't say a word.

"What, is there a problem?"

Inky: "Ah Chang, tell Madam about the situation."

A Chang on the side hurriedly said: "Madam, thirty kilometers ahead is Cheng'an Town, which is the hometown of medicinal materials in Daqing."

When Li Wei heard it, is it just right not to die?

"It's just right, we're going here to replenish medicinal materials. Since they are known as the hometown of medicinal materials, we should be able to buy all the medicinal materials we need."

A Chang: "This Cheng'an was originally a pier in the middle reaches of the Tuojiang River. It is a small transfer station for north-south travel. There is little land. Most of the local residents live by hunting fish. Compared with the entire Daqing Dynasty, the living standard is neither good nor bad. , Later, it was discovered that there is a mountain here that is rich in ginseng, which gradually attracted everyone’s attention.”

"In addition, there is Cheng'an River, a tributary of Tuojiang River beside Cheng'an. The water quality is as clear as mountain spring water, and the efficacy of medicine is better than that of other places. So the mayor at that time began to search for pharmaceutical talents to come to Cheng'an."

"Gradually, Cheng'an Pharmaceutical has formed a certain scale, and medicinal materials from other places in Daqing are also willing to trade in Cheng'an, and this place has gradually become the hometown of medicinal materials in Daqing."

After listening to A Chang's story, Li Wei felt that the mayor of Cheng'an Town had a bit of business acumen, seized an opportunity to develop with all his strength, and finally formed a town of medicinal materials that is famous all over the world. Most people in the town also make a living from pharmaceuticals. It's a bit like the small town of Moutai. Once you go there, the whole town sells wine.

Li Wei: "This is not very good, it is exactly what we need, what are you worried about?"

Ah Chang sighed: "Although there are many medicinal materials in Cheng'an, there is also a problem."

Li Wei: "What's the problem?"

"The river bandits are serious. In the past, the imperial court would send people to suppress the bandits every few years, but the bans continued. Not only did the river bandits not be killed, but the river bandits grew stronger and stronger year by year."

"Combined with the situation of the imperial court this year, I am afraid that Cheng'an is now the leader of the river bandits."

In fact, it's not just Cheng'an, as the Daqing court moved the capital to Evergreen City, the local officials all withdrew, and even Tongchuan became a place for hooligans, and other places naturally went their separate ways.

Cheng'an is a place where river bandits are rampant, and the town of medicinal materials is also very rich. If the imperial court doesn't care, the river bandits must seize the opportunity to occupy the territory.

After hearing this, Li Wei was not as anxious as A Chang, but slapped her thigh instead.

"What's so difficult about it? If you can't go there openly, then go secretly."

"Shake a small boat and stop not far from Cheng'an Wharf, and send a small group of people to sneak into the town to buy medicine?"

Mo Yujue still didn't say anything, Ah Chang explained.

"Madam, at this time, we need a lot of medicinal materials. I'm afraid that these things will be controlled by local local snakes."

"We want to avoid the sight of these people. It may not be easy to buy all these medicinal materials from the hands of ordinary people."

Li Wei understood that Cheng'an's local snakes were those river bandits, so they had to go to these river bandits to buy medicine, and this was equivalent to sending them to be slaughtered.

"Anyway, we have to deal with those river bandits, so why not talk to their boss directly."

Li Wei feels that the river bandits have done so well, and now they still want to walk the road, and they can't always think about making a lot of money and just doing business without capital. As long as the conditions and interests are agreed, it is not impossible to cooperate.

The key is to find out what the other party needs and whether you can meet the other party's needs.

Ah Chang didn't speak after hearing Li Wei's words, just watched Mo Yujue and waited for her to make a decision.

Mo thought for a moment and said.

"I think Madam's opinion is very good. In this case, you can go with me."
