Farmers have children to raise

Chapter 88
Lao Meng suddenly realized, thought for a while and said, "Anyway, the medicinal materials we bought are similar to those we picked up, why don't we donate more?"

Baochun squinted at him, "Do what you can, if there are too many, it will easily expose problems."

Lao Meng slapped his forehead fiercely, "No, look at my elm head."

"Don't feel that you are at a loss. Someone will intervene when the price reaches a certain level." Baochun said, "By the way, did Zhang, the shopkeeper of Huichun Pavilion, ask you?"

Lao Meng nodded, "I went to drink with me a year ago."

Baochun held the cup, thought for a while, and looked at Lao Meng, "He will come to you next time. If he asks you about our sales of medicinal materials, what do you say?"

Lao Meng was stunned, thought for a while, and then said, "I said that it is impossible for the medicinal materials to increase again. This is too much higher than in previous years, and there may be changes. Just in case, I have to deal with it quickly. Yes, I have to I kept persuading him to deal with it quickly."

Baochun looked at him, and suddenly smiled, "Old Zhang must have thought when he went back, the owner of Guijitang is still young, and he doesn't have enough experience, so he can't hold back anymore, that's where he is now, the price of this medicinal material will go up again." There is no problem at all for ten days and a half months. Lao Meng, an old boy, is clearly jealous. He doesn't want us to make more money, so he persuaded me to make a move too. Then, he discussed with his son Cui Ruhai, who is rich and powerful, and eager to make contributions. Mr. Cui, he definitely agrees to wait till the end."

Lao Meng also laughed.

Lan Xiang looked at Lao Meng, then at her own lady, really couldn't understand what they were laughing at, did she miss some funny joke?But she never left?

Today, in the court hall, the atmosphere is stagnant, and officials, big and small, dare not even vent their anger.

Because, the person in the high position was in an extremely bad mood, it could be said that he was furious.

"Are you saying that the officials below are exaggerating and lying about the disaster? Look at these scriptures. The plague has already spread everywhere. Why are you still talking about everything is good? Everything is good. This is the good way. Not to mention that there is no effective prescription, some even contracted the plague and took their own lives."

"It's not like you don't know how fast the plague spread. There are few examples in history, and everyone doesn't care about it. Is the capital sure to be safe? Now that there are countless casualties, the numbers reported here must be the same as There is a big discrepancy in the actual number, the disaster relief has just eased up, and this is catching up with the plague..."

Those notebooks just happened to be thrown in front of Prince Deng and others.

The prince and Deng Xiang couldn't help shrinking their necks, their heads drooped even lower, and they almost pointed at their noses.

"Prince, tell me how to deal with the current situation?" Liu Chen, the current emperor, asked.

"I feel that the root cause of the spread of the plague lies in the people infected with the plague, and we should put an end to the spread of these people first..." the prince stood up and said.

"How to prevent it and burn these people to death?" Liu Chen stared at him.

The prince fell silent.

Liu Chen snorted, and turned to Deng Xiang, "Deng Xiang, what do you think? You also agree with the prince's statement?"

Deng Xiang, who was named, came out, "The prince's intentions are good, but the method can be a little gentler..."

Liu Chen didn't wait for him to finish, and asked the second prince Liu Jing on the other side, "Tell me, Liu Jing, too."

Liu Jing looked up at the emperor and said, "My minister believes that the most urgent thing is to control the spread of the plague, control the circulation of the plague-affected areas, and then send the imperial physician to assist in the treatment..."

Liu Chen looked at him, then glanced at all the ministers, "I think the general direction of the second prince's suggestion is correct, what do you think?"

There were echoes of ministers below, only the prince quietly clenched his fists.

"The brochure said that there is a shortage of medicinal materials there, and there are no available medicinal materials in the surrounding area. I am going to send people to lead the imperial physicians and sergeants of the imperial hospital to deal with the plague. Do you have any volunteers to go?" Liu Chen asked.

There was silence below, no one said a word.

That's a plague area. If you go there, you probably won't be able to come back. Who would go there voluntarily? It's too late to hide?
Liu Chen was gloomy.

Suddenly, Prime Minister Deng stood up and said, "I think what the second prince said just now is very insightful, and he must have a deep understanding of plague prevention and control. If the second prince goes there, he will return triumphantly and eliminate the plague. Of course, the identity of the second prince Noble, you must never set foot in the epidemic area, as for others, I can't think of a suitable candidate..."

Liu Chen looked at him, "Don't you mean you didn't say anything? Prince, what do you think?"

"I have the same opinion as Prime Minister Deng, but I don't want the second brother to step into a dangerous place." The prince said.

"As a prince, you should share the worries of the country and the people. The second prince listens to the decree..." Liu Chen announced on the spot that the second prince would lead a team to fight the plague. A businessman who can live in goods, you must know it with great righteousness..."

Of course, in extraordinary times, there are still many connotations of Xiao Yi Da Yi.

After coming down to court, the second prince was summoned by the emperor.

When they were leaving the palace, someone asked Cui Shangshu, "The emperor is strict to purchase medicinal materials for epidemic prevention. I remember that Cui Shangshu seems to have a medicinal material shop, so be careful."

Cui Shangshu waved his hand, "Cui can make that kind of money, absolutely not. If there is, Cui will definitely donate it without saying a word. When the country is in crisis, we who are courtiers will naturally contribute our efforts. Help the emperor relieve his worries."

"What Cui Shangshu said is good, the old man deeply admires it." The man bowed his hands and saluted.

The reason Cui Shangshu was able to speak like this was because he didn't know that his precious son had purchased a large amount of anti-epidemic medicinal materials and was going to make a fortune to impress him, otherwise, he would not have said such things.

News of the procurement of anti-epidemic medicinal materials quickly spread throughout the capital.

Lao Meng hurriedly reported to Baochun, "Miss, let you talk, the imperial court is purchasing medicinal materials, and if the imperial court purchases them, the price is not easy to say. Except for the two cars we have retained, the rest can be bought." It’s all done, I’m really glad…”

"So, many people still hold on to it, and they don't care about the purchase." Baochun said, and then whispered a few words to Lao Meng, "Hurry up and do it."

Lao Meng stared at her in astonishment, didn't come back to his senses for a long time, and said to himself, this move is too ruthless.

This is much hotter than Lao Zhang cutting off their goods, even if the gangster kicks the hall!
