Chapter 34 Someone is here to cause trouble

"Shopkeeper Huairen, this matter is of great importance. I will contact your boss and make things clear."

As soon as Song Jin was about to tell their boss about the matter, shopkeeper Huairen's eyes flickered and his expression became strange.

"Our boss knows about this and asked us to come to you to seek an explanation. Qinjiagou was originally the territory of our Huairen Pharmacy..."

"stop!"

Song Jin interrupted the shopkeeper Huairen and asked, "Since when did the rules start to be based on territory?"

Now Song Jin understood.

It’s the problem of the three herbalists in Qinjiagou.

Instead, the fact that Zhou Wei and Xing Lun secretly plotted to harm Huairen was exposed. If these things were exposed, Jifang Pharmacy would have some trouble explaining themselves.

Before Shopkeeper Huairen could say anything, Zhou Wei sneered.

"Boss, you don't have to pay attention to him. Huairen violated the rules of the industry and was surrounded by other pharmacies. He paid a large sum of money privately. I guess he can't make up for it now, so he wants to find Jifang to be the scapegoat."

Zhou Wei bluntly exposed the intention of shopkeeper Huairen.

Shopkeeper Huairen's face changed.

He just wanted to see Jifang, but he couldn't even afford a doctor, and he didn't dare to ask them for compensation, so he wanted to blackmail them.

Song Jin's voice sank, "You want to blackmail us?"

"What blackmail? It was you who robbed the three of us herbalists first." Shopkeeper Huairen asked in a timid tone, "Do you want to deny it? Just go to Qinjiagou and check and you will know."

Song Jin sneered, "You stole my Jifang's medicinal materials, and you dare to come here to bite back? I think you are tired of living."

Bang! Shopkeeper Huairen slapped the table and said, "Nonsense!" Now he could only hold on to the end.

Otherwise, when the boss comes to check the accounts at the end of the month, his job as shopkeeper will be over! "Shopkeeper Chai."

Xing Lun, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up, "I have already asked someone to notify the Zeng family."

This is like a sharp statement!

To be more precise, it was more like a fatal blow.

Shopkeeper Chai's mouth was trembling and he couldn't speak for a long time. His eyes and face were full of panic.

The Zeng family is the owner of Huairen Pharmacy.

The Zeng family was also one of the Huizhou merchants. They were locals in She County and were engaged in the medicinal materials business. They had their own large pharmacy, but the quality of the medicinal materials was not as good as that of the Song family. However, most of the drug merchants in Huizhou Prefecture transported the medicinal materials to other places for sale, so the Song family had little influence on them.

Huairen Pharmacy belongs to the Zeng family.

Yi County can only be considered a branch.

Shopkeeper Chai is the eldest brother of the young lady of the Zeng family.

Relying on nepotism, he squeezed out the original shopkeeper.

After becoming the shopkeeper, he became arrogant and started to abuse his power. He overturned the rules set by the previous shopkeeper and continued to exploit the herbal farmers.

Naturally, all the money obtained through squeezing went into the pocket of Shopkeeper Chai.

As the saying goes, a new official starts with three things.

But the man was too stupid and the fire burned himself.

With the big commotion going on in Yi County now, Shopkeeper Chai probably doesn't dare to tell the truth to his boss.

Song Jin had heard about this man in his previous life. He was beaten by Zeng's family and had his legs broken, and was thrown into the government office.

He was later sentenced and there was no news of him since then.

"Get them out!"

Zhou Wei and others immediately took action and drove the shopkeeper Chai and the servants out of the pharmacy.

Standing in front of the gate, Song Jin saw the unwilling Shopkeeper Chai and deliberately reminded him:

"Manager Chai, you shouldn't come to trouble Ji Fang at this time. You should go back and find an elder who can speak for you and go to the Zeng family to apologize before the matter gets out of hand."

When I heard it, it was true!

The things that Shopkeeper Chai tried so hard to hide were exposed, and the situation became urgent.

He hated the people at Jifang Pharmacy.

But he had no mood to stay here, so he left in a hurry, ready to go home and find someone to plead for mercy at Zeng's family as Song Jin suggested.

Wait for Huairen’s people to leave.

Xing Lun asked in confusion: "Why did the boss remind him?"

"As an opponent, of course the more despicable their people are, the better it is for us."

Song Jin was calm and composed.

She didn't want to eliminate the cancer for the Zeng family.

If the opponent does not provoke Ji Fang, Song Jin basically doesn't bother to pay attention to them. He just needs to wait for the opponent to make a mistake, and then go up and take a bite of meat. It would be perfect.

Xing Lun silently kept Song Jin's words in mind.

Following Song Jin, Xing Lun found that what he learned was more practical than what he learned in books.

Huairen messed things up this morning.

Everyone's good mood was ruined.

Song Jin walked into the backyard.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Everyone followed behind her for a moment.

Song Jin turned around and ordered: "Do whatever you need to do."

Everyone else responded, but Xing Lun still had something to report, "Boss, Shunan sent a message earlier saying that the medicinal materials business will be split 50-50 for only one month. After one month, the original market price will be used to calculate."

"Okay, just do as he says."

A month is enough to save up some money.

Song Jin asked again without any context: "What's the situation outside now?"

Xing Lun asked back, "Boss, are you asking about the consequences of a batch of Song's medicinal materials suddenly flowing out of the market?"

"Yes! How is it?"

"It's calm."

Xing Lun somewhat admired the way Shunan’s people did business. “At first I thought there would be a big mess. Even if there wasn’t a big mess, it would attract a lot of people to inquire about it. In the end, nothing happened.”

“That’s what’s scary.”

Song Jin reminded Xing Lun, "Shun'an is not as simple as we see on the surface. They are not just businessmen."

Xing Lun suddenly opened his eyes wide.

If the medicinal materials were sold by Jifang Pharmacy, they wouldn't be able to do it as flawlessly as they do now.

However, this batch of medicinal materials did not appear on the market in Huizhou. They should have been transported to the capital and other places, and then sold to wealthy families. It was impossible for ordinary people to buy them.

The wholesale price alone is not something that ordinary people can afford.

"After that, focus on collecting neem bark, and then collect some stemonae, mint, costusroot, etc."

Several kinds of medicinal herbs came out of Song Jin's mouth, which Xing Lun and his team would focus on collecting next.

There was a period of time in the previous life when many people suddenly suffered from worm diseases.

Song Jin was not sure when it started exactly, but when she heard about it, it was already the end of the year.

The effects of neem bark are killing insects and treating ringworm.

It is better to be prepared.

Xing Lun went to do some work first.

Song Jin went to the preparation room.

Yinlong and his wife would take the initiative to prepare simple medicinal materials in the pharmacy.

The complicated process can only be done by Song Jin, like the newly collected centipedes now placed indoors.

"Aunt Long, don't you know how to cook it? I remember the centipede one is not difficult." Song Jin suddenly spoke.

Yin Long said carefully, "It's not difficult, and the preparation of centipedes has been recorded in all dynasties. For example, "Emergency Prescriptions for the Elbow", "Thunder God's Theory of Paozhi" in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, "Qianjin Yifang" in the Tang Dynasty, and "Taiping Shenghui Fang" and "Shengji Zonglu" in the Song Dynasty. I have studied them all, but I think none of them are as good as the preparation of the former head of the Song family, and the medicinal effect is more sufficient..."

People in different periods had different preparation methods, but none of them were as good as the Song family's.

Yin Long didn't know how much of the Song family's ancestry Song Jin had inherited, so she decided to leave the centipede for Song Jin to practice on.
