Li Ji was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and said: "In the land of Liangzhou, the largest medicine store is the Medicine King Hall, in fact, behind this Medicine King Hall is the Medicine King Temple, of course, in addition, there are some small medicine stores, but the scale is far less than the Medicine King Temple, so generally speaking, they buy medicinal materials from the Medicine King Temple, because they have the most and most complete there." ”

"Medicine King View?" Chu Xian pondered, according to Su Wenzheng, among the Six Alliances, there is this Medicine King View, and its strength is definitely the crown of the Six Alliances.

If you think about it, you can only get the greatest profits by monopolizing some essential goods.

Generally speaking, the salt administration is operated by the government, and private individuals cannot sell it, but the medicinal materials are different, because there are many types, and the prescriptions for treating diseases are different in various places, so it is impossible to restrict, and besides, many medicinal collectors can collect all kinds of medicinal materials as long as they master some knowledge and techniques, and go up the mountain and enter the forest, and because this is related to the people's livelihood, it is even more impossible to be controlled by the government.

Since ancient times, there have been many gold and silver in the medicine shop.

The meaning of this is self-evident, as long as there is a headache and brain fever, you have to grab medicine, and this thing, you will not feel sorry for the silver, even if it is some poor people, find some cheap prescriptions to catch medicine, go back to get the medicine jar so boiled, you can also deal with some diseases.

"There are also medical centers in various city governments, and in the medical halls, there are also medical officers who have entered the official canon, so they can't be useful?" Chu Xian said, Li Ji said: "The medical officer can naturally come in handy, but he can't stand the number of people, even if there are more than a dozen medical officers, he can't cope with it, not to mention, the most troublesome thing about this spring plague is that it can be infected, a large family, one person gets sick, and the whole family suffers, it is really difficult to control." The best way is to catch the medicine according to the prescription for the treatment of spring plague, and then boil the cold soup, but the medicinal materials in this prescription are all money. ”

Chu Xian understood, but he couldn't think of a way to deal with this kind of thing for a while, so he could only let Li Ji go back first and then think of a way.

Chu Xian has had a lot of affairs recently, even the day before yesterday, Chu Huang and Concubine Luo rushed to Shacheng, and Li Ziyun went to meet and settle down, although Chu Huang will not blame Chu Xian, but Chu Xian himself is also a little indebted, I thought that I would be busy for a while, and accompany my mother to visit the land of Liangzhou, but I didn't expect that there would be another spring plague.

At this moment, Chu San hurriedly ran over and said that something was wrong.

In a street lined with shops in Shacheng, in a medicine store with the words "Yao Wang Guan", Li Ziyun is arguing with the guys at the pharmacy.

The pharmacy guy was obviously very arrogant, and shouted directly: "This girl, do you buy it or not, don't buy it and get out of the way, don't block the customers behind." ”

Li Ziyun was obviously angry enough at the moment, she said: "You have to abide by the rules when you do business, in the past few days, the price of medicinal materials in your pharmacy has doubled, and the price has risen for no reason at all, and the people are complaining, you make so much black money, can you have a good conscience?"

The guy sneered: "I said you little girl, there is a lot of nonsense, or that sentence, if you can afford it, pay for the silver and take the medicine, and you can't afford it, you can stay where you are cool, and we will be hindered from doing legitimate business, as for the conscience you said, hum, how much silver is a pound?"

Arrogant.

Quite arrogant.

Li Ziyun's face was not good-looking, she originally just wanted to ask why the price of medicinal materials had suddenly risen, but she didn't expect the other party's attitude to be arrogant, with a posture of buying if she likes to buy and pulling down if she doesn't buy, which of course made Li Ziyun annoyed.

"Recently, winter has gone to spring, the spring plague is raging, you have doubled the money for medicine, this kind of thing, the ancient medicine store does not bother to do, this is making black money, who is your shopkeeper, let him come to see me." "Li Ziyun is also the daughter of a medical fairy, and when the road is uneven at the moment, she is going to be nosy, especially when it comes to medicine stores, she is even more popular.

In the circle of medicine stores, she Li Zihua is definitely the number one person, although she has always been in the land of Jingzhou, far away from Liangzhou, but the ancient medicine store is a family and follows a guideline.

Help the world and save people.

This is the rule set by the Immortal Ancestor of the Medical Dao back then, and future generations, as long as they eat the bowl of rice in the medicine store and the doctor, they must follow it, this is the rule.

But today, when she saw this kind of unruly companion, of course she was angry, and of course she had to take care of it.

When the guy heard that this was going to make trouble, his eyes were cold, and he shouted behind him: "Don't buy medicine, someone is coming to smash the field, copy the guy for me." ”

After speaking, in this medicine shop, there were immediately seven or eight strong men with strong martial arts, carrying sticks one by one, and the posture was not easy to provoke at first glance.

Li Ziyun was beside her, just following Concubine Luo and Chu San today, just now Concubine Luo knew that something was going to happen, so she asked Chu San to call someone first, and when she saw that the other party was going to make a move, Concubine Luo was about to step forward.

Li Ziyun pulled Concubine Luo away, and then looked at the people in the medicine store: "I just want to be reasonable, not to make trouble, you still call the shopkeeper of your medicine store out, I have something to ask him." ”

What is Li Ziyun's identity, what kind of cultivation, how can he be afraid of these people.

So she was very imposing, and those guys saw that this beautiful woman was so calm, it seemed that she was not an ordinary person, and she didn't dare to do it at the moment, at this time, the shopkeeper in the medicine store came out.

The shopkeeper of this medicine king view is different from other medicine stores, the shopkeeper of the medicine king view, without exception, is a Taoist priest, a Taoist priest of the medicine king view.

They are proficient in medical science, proficient in pharmacy, and there are pharmacies all over Liangzhou and several other states, almost monopolizing the source of medicinal materials in various places, and other small pharmacies are not the opponents of the medicine king at all, if it is not for fear of being punished by the holy dynasty, the medicine king can even be very easy to squeeze other medicine shops to death.

Naturally, if you become the boss of an industry, you will learn to be arrogant and domineering, especially these Taoist priests of the Medicine King Temple, who are all rampant and arrogant, not only proficient in medicine and pharmacy, but also very high in martial arts.

At this moment, after the shopkeeper of this medicine store came out, the surrounding guys hurriedly stepped forward one by one to salute and shouted Master.

Obviously, these guys are all outer disciples of the Medicine King Concept.

"What, someone is making trouble?" asked the shopkeeper in a cold voice after he came out.

The guy just now hurriedly told the story of the matter, and the shopkeeper immediately showed a look of disdain: "The medicine store sells medicine, and the price is naturally set by the medicine store, is it you who set it? If you say that you don't spend money, do you really take it for nothing?" Where is there such a thing in the world, yes, the price of medicinal materials has risen recently, but there is no way, now the spring plague is coming, the medicinal materials are tight, and the so-called supply is less than the price of demand is also a normal thing, doing medicine, although it should accumulate virtue and do good, but also to eat, right, you say, during this period of time, the price of rice has skyrocketed, the price of oil has skyrocketed, that is, to buy vegetables, the price has risen, so, why can't the price of medicine rise? In the past, one tael of silver could feed five people for a day, but now, it has to cost more than two taels, and the cost has increased. ”

The shopkeeper was obviously very eloquent, and in a few words, he took himself into account, as if they should raise the price.

But this kind of words, it's okay for laymen, Li Ziyun is an insider among insiders, and at the moment he said coldly: "It's just a strong word, the medicine store is a huge profit, so he said ephedra, I received it in my hand, one or two pieces of silver get a big bag, more than a dozen catties, it can be sold, but it is sold according to two, the price has risen more than fifty times, that is, other prices have soared, and the medicine store still has to make money, and it will not be less at all, not to mention, the rules set by the Immortal Ancestor of the Medicine Dao back then, in order to save people from the world, the medicine money is only exchanged for food and clothing, at least the price cannot be raised, you are unruly." ”

"Yo, you little girl is still an expert. The Taoist priest sneered: "It's useless to say so much, it's still the same sentence, it's this price, you can buy it if you can afford it, you can't afford it, and you will be bothered by the next one." If you are arrogant and unreasonable to make trouble, then our medicine king is not vegetarian. ”

Li Ziyun was still about to speak, but Chu Xian had already arrived.

In fact, Chu Xian has been here since just now, he has just been secretly observing, and before he came, Chu Xian knew that this time the price increase was not only the medicine store to which the medicine king belonged, but also some other medicine shops that raised the price together, so it was just making trouble here, and there was no point.

Chu Xian was dressed in civilian clothes, and he had never seen him, so he didn't know that this was Lord Thorn Shi of Liangzhou.

And after Chu Xian came, he was also very simple, pulling Li Ziyun and leaving.

Li Ziyun saw that it was Chu Xian, and she didn't resist, and Concubine Luo next to her left, and a conflict ended there.

When he arrived at a place where there was no one, Chu Xian stopped, turned his head and asked, "Aster, you deliberately went to trouble the Medicine King Guan?"

Li Ziyun smiled: "You can see this, yes, I heard that the people of this medicine king Guan deliberately raised the price of medicinal materials, which is simply in the grass to see people's lives, now that the spring plague has arrived, it is the time when a large number of medicinal materials are needed, they are raising prices at this time, they are making black money, I can't get used to it, so today I went to find fault, if you don't come, Concubine Luo and I will smash their broken medicine shop." ”

After Li Ziyun finished speaking, Concubine Luo next to her also nodded.

But obviously, Li Ziyun didn't know that she had been betrayed by Concubine Luo, because Chu Xian was secretly called by Concubine Luo.

It is estimated that Concubine Luo also knows that it is not too appropriate to make such a trouble.

"Chu Xian, you are a thorn in history, can't you take care of this kind of thing, you can't let them mess around. Li Ziyun asked.

Chu Xian shook his head: "If it was two hundred years ago, it could be managed, at that time, the price of the medicine store had to obey the control of the government, one more point, not one less point, but later there was a law promulgated, the government could not control the price, so it was decided by the market, selling high and selling low, it was all set by each family, because if the price of one was high, the people would naturally go to another to buy, but now, the medicine king view almost monopolized the Liangzhou medicine world, so they said that the price was raised, everyone had to raise it, and no one dared not listen." ”

When Li Ziyun heard this, she became even more angry: "They are so rampant, so they have to take care of it." ”
