If you keep making noise, I won’t stand it anymore!
Chapter 137 Current Status of the Medicinal Materials Base
When Meixiang and her companions arrived at the entrance of Luojia Village that day, Meixiang was already so dizzy that she didn't know what year it was.
"Ugh," Meixiang said with a pale face. She jumped out of the car without waiting for the car to stop, lifted her skirt and squatted on the side of the road, retching and vomiting. Xiaosan looked distressed, holding water in his left hand and patting her back with his right hand.
"What should we do? Why did you vomit like this this time?" Situ Yidun rubbed his hands and circled around her anxiously.
Chu Zeming grabbed his shoulders and said, "Situ, stop turning me. I feel dizzy. If you keep turning me, I'm going to vomit."
"Hey, you guys have such poor physical conditions. This won't do. I'll go find some horses when I get back and take some time to teach you how to ride." Situ Yidun said quickly.
Mei Xiang's eyes lit up when she heard this. She took a sip of water from Xiao San's hand and rinsed her mouth. Then she calmed down and replied, "That's a good idea. Brother Situ Shi has decided. All the people in the Liu family who want to learn how to ride horses should learn together this time. Four legs are always faster than two legs. Who knows, they might come in handy someday."
At this time, Old Man Luo also recognized them and hurried over from his own courtyard.
"Miss Liu, everyone, you are here," Chu Zeming stopped him from bowing with his eyes. They didn't want to make such a big scene every time. "Hey, what's wrong? Why do you look so bad?"
"It's nothing. I just felt a little dizzy in the carriage today. It's okay." Meixiang looked at his face full of concern and replied quickly to comfort him.
Old Man Luo was relieved when Meixiang said that she was just carriage sickness. The road was bumpy and difficult to drive on, and it was normal to get carriage sickness when Haoyue's carriage's shock absorption function couldn't keep up. "Go inside and drink some water to calm down. Oh, carriage sickness is really painful."
As he spoke, he courteously let Meixiang and her group walk to his own courtyard. A scent of herbs floated over in the wind, and everyone took a deep breath, and immediately felt that the air that was blocked in their chests was exhaled, and their whole bodies felt refreshed.
Looking up, they saw the busy figure bent over in the courtyard of Old Man Luo, and everyone's face flashed with surprise. Isn't this old man always alone? How come there is another person in the courtyard after a few days? They turned around and looked at Old Man Luo with puzzled eyes.
"Haha, what are you talking about him?" Old Man Luo, who had come to his senses, laughed heartily. "Speaking of this, I have to thank you. Do you still remember the brother Sheng you saved on the road when you first came to Luojia Village?"
Seeing everyone's puzzled faces, he continued to explain, "After you left, that young man took the initiative to find me and said he wanted to help me to develop the medicinal herb planting in our Luojia Village, so that the tragedy of his wife, children, and parents would never happen again. I have watched him grow up since he was a child and know him well. He is also a young man who values friendship and loyalty. It just so happens that I am alone, so I agreed to let the two of us be companions. Is this okay, Miss Liu and you, sir?"
The young man recognized Meixiang and others when he saw them following Old Man Luo into the yard, and was now busy moving tables and chairs and serving tea and water to entertain the guests.
Seeing the anxious and worried faces of old man Luo and the young man, everyone couldn't help but laugh. Meixiang smiled and teased: "Oh, no wonder you look so energetic this time, it turns out that good things have happened to you! As long as you get along well, we have no objection, just relax."
Then he asked, "How are you doing here recently? By the way, what's your name? Can you read? Where have you been before?"
When the young man heard Meixiang's question, he looked at Old Man Luo and answered carefully: "My name is Luo Sheng, and I am 22 years old this year. I have been to several states around the area for five years, and I have also been to the other side of the mountain behind Liuzhou Prefecture. I met a scholar in the army who taught me to read and do some simple arithmetic. Unfortunately..."
When Luo Sheng said this, his eyes turned red unconsciously, and his face was filled with sadness. Although he hadn't finished speaking, everyone knew that the most common thing in war is the death of many people. How tragic and heroic it is that one general's success is achieved at the cost of thousands of lives.
The atmosphere suddenly became depressing. They had not experienced the cruelty of war personally, and their consolation would be pale if they could not empathize with the people. Meixiang and the others did not know how to comfort this young man who had indirectly lost all his relatives due to the war.
At this time, Old Man Luo raised his hand and patted Luo Sheng's shoulder to comfort him silently, and changed the subject: "Miss Liu, is there anything you want to ask me this time?"
"Ah," Meixiang came back to her senses after hearing that. She looked at Old Man Luo approvingly and replied, "We came here mainly to see you. Secondly, we have some plans that we want to discuss with you to see if they are feasible. Thirdly, we want to see if there is anything you need our help with."
"Miss, you are too polite and modest. Please tell me if you have anything to say." Hearing her words, Old Man Luo and Mr. Luo restrained their previous expressions and immediately became extremely serious.
Now they have seen the tangible changes that Meixiang has brought to their village according to the plan, and the villagers have benefited and have hope for a better life. They are all eager to hear more plans.
Looking at the two people staring at her seriously and even with a hint of abuse, Mei Xiang couldn't help but chuckle: "Can you two stop being so nervous? I don't even know how to start talking."
"Hahaha......"
"How is your medicinal herb cultivation going now? Are there any difficulties?" Meixiang asked Old Man Luo and the other man.
When talking about this topic, both of them were full of joy. Old Man Luo replied with a smile: "Since the military camp sent people to purchase a batch last time, everyone has seen that these herbs can really be exchanged for silver, and now they are very enthusiastic." Then he changed the subject and said: "But now there is a problem. Most villagers only grow the varieties purchased by the military camp. They don't grow other varieties or even dig them up. This way, the quantity has increased. I wonder if they can all be sold?"
This problem is not limited to the villagers of the small Luojia Village. It has existed since ancient times. Merchants pursue profits. This is human nature and cannot be controlled by human power. "The emergence of this situation is an inevitable result. Everyone wants to grow something that can be exchanged for money, right? This is also one of the purposes of our coming here today."
"What is the reason why everyone is rushing to plant several deep layers now? Have you ever thought about it? It is normal to have various problems at the beginning. Now we are not afraid of problems, but afraid of no problems."
