Chapter 623: inspiration

Qi Haoran is talking to Fan Zijin about Chen Jiacai, and they are going to Miao Village as a guest. This time it is nominally a visit, but there are actually a lot of things to talk about. Only by knowing the enemy and knowing yourself can you be invincible. The situation of each Miao village was touched.

Among them, the Miao Village in Ji'an is located in Juzhou, and is most concerned by Qi Haoran, and among them, Chen Jiacai is most concerned by Qi Haoran.

The Chen family is Han Chinese, but they grew up in Miao Village, and now they are married to Ji'an's eldest daughter Hanlan. Ji'an trusts him very much, and is even more willing to entrust him than his son Ji Anyong in some matters. How trusted is the Chen family.

"What's interesting is that Chen Jiacai's parents are still alive," Qi Haoran said: "According to the information we inquired, the Chen family was sold by his parents, and he couldn't stand the beatings and scolding of the master's family. Back to Miao Village, Ji'an not only raised him, but also let him learn Chinese characters with his son. Unfortunately, Ji Anyong didn't have the talent in this area, and only barely kept his eyes open. Since he was twelve years old, he has been by Ji'an's side to make suggestions. The Miao Village in Ji'an had only more than 3,000 people at the beginning, and it was still ranked third in the Juzhou area, but the Chen family had only been a military advisor for ten years. The number of people has tripled. Moreover, in the previous dynasty, the relationship between Miao and Han people was bad, and there was a tendency to be incompatible with the court. The Miao village in Ji'an was just outside the city of Juzhou, but the relationship with the court was decent. Among them The Chen family has contributed greatly."

Qi Haoran said with admiration: "This time the war has subsided, all the Miao villages in southern Guizhou have been weakened to varying degrees, but the Miao villages in Ji'an can allow most of the people to survive. Except for the soldiers who died in the battlefield, no old and weak women and children died. of war and famine."

Fan Zijin sat up slightly and asked, "Where did they get the food and money?"

"Business," Qi Haoran said, "Chen Jiacai took the people from the Miao village to trade with Dali, selling their medicinal materials and some precious gems to merchants in Dali, and then buying food and other materials from Dali."

"Smuggling?" Fan Zijin was very displeased. He was considered lawless, and he also relied on Qi Xiuyuan's power to do business, but he didn't dare to smuggle.

Qi Haoran admired Chen Jiacai's courage and strategy, and said, "If I hadn't told the scouts to keep staring at the Miao Village, we might not have been able to find out, but that's it, we only marked half the route."

Qi Haoran is not too angry about the smuggling of Chen Jiacai, because Daqi has just been established, smuggling, and he is also Da Zhou's private property. In troubled times, he can use this method to protect the people he cares about. Qi Haoran admires him.

But admiring him does not mean that he will continue to indulge him, so Qi Haoran asked people to find out the smuggling route and seal the route.

"What are you going to do?" Fan Zijin frowned and said, "As soon as you come, you will cut off their financial path, I'm afraid it will cause a backlash."

Although Fan Zijin doesn't like Chen Jiacai, he has to look at the problem objectively and doesn't want Qi Haoran to conflict with them now.

Qi Haoran laughed and said, "Who said I'm going to cut off their fortunes?"

"Who is the business partner and not doing? The reason why they take the risk of doing business with Dali is to avoid heavy taxation and exploitation. I will not mention the heavy taxation. If you have a master here, who would dare to exploit it? As for the business tax, the Miao and Han people are currently With the same tax, as long as the Chen family is not stupid, they will not risk doing such a thing again."

Fan Zijin raised his eyebrows and looked at Qi Haoran, leaned on the chair, took a sip of tea slowly, and ignored Qi Haoran who looked at him, Qi Haoran couldn't help saying: "Zijin, you have done so much business, How about a few more pharmacies?"

"Bah," Fan Zijin spat at him and said, "I know that you have nothing good to do with me. Do you think the business of medicinal materials is so easy to do? There are many precious medicinal materials in Qiannan, but just based on those few medicinal materials, I want to make medicinal materials. Business, are you planning to let me use money to fill the belly of the Miao people?"

Although Fan Zijin has never done a medicinal herb business, he knows a few things about it, so he only took out a few items to talk to Qi Haoran, and then clicked on the cost. Qi Haoran gave up his mind instantly. Compared with Fan Zijin, he is much more stingy.

Qi Haoran said: "I thought that the medicinal material business would make money before we mentioned it. Since we can't make money, we will not do it. Daqi is so big, can't we find someone who collects medicines?"

Qi Haoran thought that if they could control the lifeline of their business, they would be able to control the Miao Village in the future, but if the medicinal material business did not make money, then naturally they could not fill it with money.

Qi Haoran clapped his hands and said, "I'll ask someone to check the herbal medicine dealers in the city to see if they can help them find sales."

Fan Zijin nodded, "There are not many medicinal herb dealers in the city, but it shouldn't be a problem to cooperate with Miao Village."

Qi Haoran has been thinking about this question all the time. He also thought about it when he was eating at night. Then he thought that the medicinal materials of the Miao people are all harvested directly from the mountains. What if the harvest in the mountains is finished one day?

Moreover, there should not be too many miasma, poisonous insects and beasts in the mountains. Now, regardless of the Han people and Miao people, they are the people of Daqi, and the people of the eldest brother cannot die casually.

Qi Haoran was distressed, "Why does this medicinal material have to grow in the mountains?"

"Who said that all the medicinal materials grow in the mountains? Don't you have them in the fields? There are also specially planted medicinal fields. Now is the time for Xiaoxiong to receive knowledge the fastest. Don't mislead him." Mu Yangling shredded chicken for Xiaoxiong. Eat, while taking the time to answer Qi Haoran.

Only then did Qi Haoran realize that he had unknowingly said the question, and when he heard Mu Yangling's answer, he immediately patted the table and laughed: "Yes, we can grow medicinal herbs, a little variety, what kind of ginseng? , Ganoderma lucidum, Shouwu are all planted, and Zijin will be able to do the medicinal business by then?"

Mu Yangling asked curiously: "Zijin wants to do a medicinal herb business? He is too busy to touch the ground now, how can he still have time to think about business?"

"I suggested that he do it," Qi Haoran whispered his thoughts to Mu Yangling, and said, "Think about it, Miao people have always been poor, the land here is barren, mostly high mountains and dense forests, and too little food is grown. Now, those medicines are born to live in the deep mountains and old forests. What if we plant them? When they collect the medicines, we will buy them here. Not to mention too much, at least it will make their lives a little easier, and it will not take long, three or two. Years of effort will enable the Miao people to rely on us, and they will have no choice but to be obedient."

Mu Yangling frowned, "There are so many herbal medicine dealers in the world. When the time comes, they will plant the herbs. As long as they get their reputation out, they won't worry about no one buying them. Why do they have to sell them to you?"

Qi Haoran's excited expression froze, and he tilted his head and said, "They are not allowed to sell to others?"

Without Mu Yangling's objection, he knew it would not work, he wanted to befriend the Miao people, not against them, he scratched his head and said, "Let's ask Zijin, he is proficient in this business. ."

Mu Yangling nodded.
