Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

The next morning.

When Xia Bai'an woke up, there was no one around him.

It seemed that the man who came to her to detoxify last night was just a dream.

She rubbed the slightly swollen forehead, temporarily put aside the complicated thoughts of last night, thinking that the sorrow of the night was just moaning without illness, she got up, took care of Lin Miaomiao, tidied up and down the house and the two shops, and kept busy. Stained.

Mo Che also seems to be busy with Sun Taiwei in winter these two days.

He almost completely handed over the patrolling of the Forbidden Army Garden to the boorish man. Instead of going back to the house every day, he went out to make connections, so he was too busy to see anyone.

Two days passed.

Xia Bai'an's Chen Xiang Pavilion, which sells skin care sets and moisturizer sets, has almost the same preparations, but some materials have to wait until the beginning of spring, and roads are likely to be blocked by heavy snow in winter, and merchants who are too far away obviously don't want to discuss business at this time.

Just Tongjitang...

"Almost all medicinal materials dealers in the capital are monopolized by Jishitang. The Qin family of Jishitang spent a lot of money, even buying medicinal materials at a high price in winter. They only ask that the medicinal materials are not wrong." Qian Mingshu looked at the register and poured two pots of water into his mouth. .

He went all over the nearby medicinal material dealers these days, his mouth was worn out, and he couldn't get through one of them to sell them the medicinal materials of Tongjitang.

Liu Pipa and Li Xiuhong also went to several houses, but they all returned without success.

"In terms of medicinal materials, Jishitang is indeed doing very well. The quality must pass the standard, and the price is also generous. And the medicinal material merchants have never heard of the reputation of Tongjitang, and they will never see us." Li Xiuhong sighed, and went to the warm basin Moved.

Liu Pipa's fingertips were also red, and she sniffed, and crossed out the last villa on the roster with her fingertips.

"With a radius of fifty miles around the capital, they don't do our business. In terms of goods, I'm afraid we need to think more about it."

"Ah."

Xia Bai'an nodded slightly, her expression was calm, and she glanced at the dead branches outside the window, "Actually, the medicinal materials of many medicinal material merchants are not all grown near the capital, but also bulk goods from other places specially collected. The key things in their hands are Channels and caravans of trust."

Liu Pipa looked sideways: "Channel, there is no one in Qingshan Town who grows medicinal herbs, and caravans are not what we are good at. We also don't know any acquaintances in this field."

Xia Bai'an propped his face and sighed.

Logistics in modern society is very fast. There are high-speed railways everywhere, freight drivers clearly mark prices, and logistics companies are everywhere.

But the situation in ancient times is very different from the modern situation, and information is easily restricted. She just wants to solve the predicament. First, there is no information, second, there is no channel, and third, there is no acquaintance to help, and it is almost a dead end.

Qian Mingshu and Li Xiuhong sighed.

Xia Bai'an braced his chin for a while, lingered over the roster in his hand with his fingertips, and asked Qian Mingshu: "Your father and the old man of the Zhang family, are you using your own people to connect with the capital's caravan? How many people are left in Qingshan Town?"

Qian Mingshu thought for a while: "There are only [-] or [-] people left. They all have to run their own businesses, and they can't afford to be born. The Zhang family promised to help you plant medicinal materials, and encouraged the farmers to plant medicinal materials for shipping, but the medicinal materials have not yet grown. Come to think of it, farmers haven't tasted the sweetness yet, and few are willing to plant at the beginning, and I'm afraid it will take a year or two to really form the industrial chain you're talking about."

Xia Bai'an laughed: "You are more brainy now than before. I understand the matter. Next, let's think about what to do."

Qian Mingshu smiled triumphantly, walked to sit beside her: "What else can I do?"

"Collect bulk goods."

Xia Bai'an began to draw up a plan, "I know most of the people at the breakfast stand, and there are also many people in the poor streets who are staring at the opportunity to make money, and see if they can be mobilized."

Qian Mingshu shook his head: "How much can we buy in bulk, and the medicinal materials near the capital are limited, how can we have enough to open in spring?"

At this time, Mo Xue came out from the backyard with hot sweet potatoes in her hands, put a pot of sweet potatoes on the table, steamed, and knocked on Qian Mingshu's knee.

"Third Uncle didn't read Mother's book properly!"

"..."

This little girl dares to do something to herself now!

Qian Mingshu pulled her onto his knees and sat down, then knocked her on the head: "Well, Xue'er, you dare to do something to your third uncle, don't you?"

Mo Xue smiled and stuffed sweet potatoes into his arms, Qian Mingshu was so hot that he wanted to beat him up: "Stinky girl!"

"Third uncle is stupid!"

But Mo Xue ran to Mo Qian's side to hide and seek, one big and one small quickly started arguing in the room, Liu Pipa and Mo Qian persuaded, Mo Yu pulled Lin Miaomiao, who was just sick, to sit beside Xia Bai'an.

Xia Bai'an peeled sweet potatoes for the two of them, and asked, "Does Yu'er know why they need to collect bulk goods?"

Mo Yu nodded: "It doesn't matter how much bulk goods you accept, what matters is that the goods are in place, and Tongjitang can afford the money."

Qian Mingshu grabbed Mo Xue, sat in his arms, and walked back to look at Mo Yu.

"Isn't this nonsense?"

"..."

Mo Yu gave him a blank look and stopped talking.

Qian Mingshu was anxious: "Hi, you little bastard!"

"Third Uncle." Mo Xue quickly hugged Qian Mingshu's neck, "Ji Shitang has almost monopolized the surrounding medicinal material dealers, but they pursue quality and pay high prices. The medicinal material dealers who can supply the goods must be the best. ,right?"

"Yes, after all, Ji Shitang needs a lot of goods, and small businessmen can't take care of them." Qian Mingshu nodded, sat down, and peeled sweet potatoes for the children with Xia Bai'an.

Mo Xue stared at Sweet Potato, and continued: "Small businessmen also need to eat to survive. They can't get on the line of Jishitang, so they must find other people to do business, right?"

"Well, Xue'er, can you finish in one breath? I'm tired of answering." Qian Mingshu was helpless.

"To put it simply, there are few channels for small vendors, and they are all acquaintances. But my mother urged everyone to light up all the medicinal materials in the suburbs of Beijing, causing a lot of trouble, and the small vendors would be able to discover the existence of Tongjitang. In this way If the big merchants don’t come to supply the goods, don’t the small merchants still want to cooperate with us.”

After Mo Xue finished speaking, she was about to take the sweet potato from Qian Mingshu's hand.

With a twist of Qian Mingshu's hand, a sweet potato was in Liu Pipa's hand, and it was still wrapped in a layer of oil paper, in case she would burn it.

Liu Pipa was taken aback.

Mo Xue's fist hardened.

Qian Mingshu was still happy: "The stinky girl scolded me just now, of course I won't give you the first sweet potato!"

Mo Xue's fist hit him on the shoulder, Xia Bai'an swiftly stuffed half a sweet potato into his daughter's arms, and the other sweet potato was stuffed directly into Qian Mingshu's mouth: "Damn Qian, you are bullying my daughter, right? "

"Oh, it's hot!"

Qian Mingshu jumped three feet high.

Xia Bai'an put his daughter on his lap, and said, "Then I'll write a rough plan first."

"and many more."

Mo Qian suddenly handed the sweet potato in his hand to Mo Yu, looked sharply at the half-opened door, and walked over with a light step.

The crowd looked over in confusion.

Mo Qian made a sudden move, opened the door, and dragged a person in from outside with lightning speed.
