Chapter 205 Special Class
Back to the past, after Lu Songli finished her explanation, Wu Ren pulled Liu Erxi and others aside to discuss.
The rest of the people also began to clean up the camp, set up camp, guard and patrol. In short, they were all busy.
Many people were pondering her last sentence. Judging from what she meant, if she took another approach, would there be a turning point in the acquisition of medicinal materials?
Qin Zhao, who couldn't figure out the reason, saw Lu Songli sitting there thinking about something, and felt embarrassed to disturb her, so he could only wink at Qin Sheng behind her, "Xiao Liu, you go and ask!"
Qin Sheng didn't want to pay attention to him, but he found that his eldest and second brothers were also thinking hard, and then he also thought hard himself, but unfortunately, he didn't figure it out in the end.
He really didn't want to admit that he was really not good at calculating people's hearts.
While Lu Songli was lost in thought, she was holding a water cup in her hand. Suddenly, the cup tilted and the water in it was about to spill out, which would wet her skirt.
Just then, a hand reached out from behind her and took the cup from her hand.
This action interrupted Lu Songli's thoughts. She raised her head and saw Qin Sheng coming towards her from behind.
Noticing her movements, Qin Sheng squatted in front of her, holding her hand, and mustered up the courage to ask, "Lili, what you meant just now is that if Wu Ren and the others privately contacted the dental clinic to help them buy medicinal herbs, they would get unexpected rewards, right?"
"right."
"Lili, can you tell me the reason?"
The Qin family: Special cooking! They're clearly asking for special cooking!
Qin's mother began to clear the area and signaled others to move away quickly. She was afraid that her daughter-in-law would be embarrassed.
Qin Heng and others took the children away one by one, but Qin Zhao was the only one who hesitated. He wanted to know the answer.
Lu Songli lowered her eyes and looked at him. He was squatting on one knee, his lower body as steady as a rock, his upper body and shoulders moving with his hands. "My dear husband, you are good at learning."
She suppressed her laughter and agreed, "Okay."
In fact, the reason is very simple. Wuliu County is rich in medicinal materials, but all the shops here have backers. The medicinal materials are all monopolized by them. There is no competition, and a buyer's market has been formed.
But ordinary people have to make a living, right? When they are poor, they seek change.
In Wuliu County, precisely because the shops that operate openly cannot survive, the secret transactions become even more rampant.
"It's windy here, shall we go over there and talk?" Qin Sheng said in a low voice, his eyes full of anticipation.
Qin Zhao's eyes widened when he heard this: It's over, Xiaoliu has become treacherous too!
"I'm a bit dumb, so you might need to teach me for a longer time."
The wind was a bit strong tonight. Lu Songli glanced at the dark grove and shook her head.
Lu Songli doesn't understand, and can't really do it, why is his addiction so strong?
Seeing her refusal, Qin Sheng couldn't hide his disappointment.
"Shall we sleep in the carriage tonight?"
Qin Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up, "Then I'll go sort it out."
Qin Sheng stood up first and said enthusiastically, "I'll go boil some hot water. Can you go and wipe yourself off later? I'll keep watch for you."
"Okay." Lu Songli nodded. Her husband's thoughtfulness made her smile. "Then let's talk while we walk."
Qin Zhao: No, Sixth brother and sister-in-law, we are all family, is there anything we can’t listen to together?
Lu Songli gave him her hand. Qin Sheng was stunned for a moment, then quickly reached out and held her hand.
Lu Songli stood up with the help of his force.
For Qin Sheng, he looked forward to her touching him every night, but she was too tired these days and fell asleep next to him.
Even his tried-and-true abdominal muscles weren't working, and he couldn't believe it when he discovered this.
At the same time, Qin Sheng felt aggrieved.
Later he thought about it, and he actually figured it out. She would ignore him when she was tired, but she would get annoyed if he kissed her.
After that, he understood that he couldn't let her get too tired because her energy was limited. If she consumed too much energy on other things, there would be less energy left for him.
About a quarter of an hour later, Qin Sheng went to pour a bucket of water.
When passing by Qin Zhao, he teased him, "Hey, pouring water? So active?"
Qin Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to him. Could he tell them that if his wife was tired, she would not pay attention to him? Even his little brother would be wronged. Some things should be fought for, and some work should be done actively.
Qin Zhao asked him, "A Sheng, did your sixth sister-in-law clear up your confusion?"
Qin Sheng: "Of course!" As long as he is willing to learn, she will teach him everything she knows. His wife never hides anything from him.
Qin Zhao clicked his tongue twice, thinking that his arrogant look was really unbearable to watch.
After getting the answer from Qin Sheng, Qin Zhao nodded, saying it was almost the same as what his elder brother said.
Southland, where the Chen family gathers
Over the past three years, as the patriarch of the Chen clan, Chen Jiaye has grown a lot of white hair. This is mainly due to excessive work, both mentally and physically, but with little success.
Also, there was the Xue Guangxian incident, which had always brooded over him, especially since the Chen family had fallen from first to sixth among the prominent families. He had led his clansmen to work hard for three whole years, but still had not been able to make the family move forward. He was even more depressed.
In fact, this situation was also within his expectations. Because of Xue Guangxian's previous assistance, their Chen family was unstoppable, overwhelming the five major families and reaching the top in one fell swoop. This experience made the five major families of Gu, Lu, Zhu, Zhang and Liu wary of their Chen family.
At this time, Chen Jiaye realized even more deeply that their Chen family had no capable people, and he, Chen Jiaye, was not that talented. Their Chen family had ordinary smart people, but they did not have a top-notch counselor like Xue Guangxian.
Chen Jiaye was discussing something with his aide Ning Jiran when he saw his youngest son Chen Jin passing by the main courtyard, reeking of alcohol.
"Stop!" Chen Jiaye shouted.
Chen Jin stood still obediently, feeling unlucky. Why was his father at home at this time?
Chen Jiaye walked over and said, "Look at you, drunk in broad daylight. What does it look like?"
Chen Jin complained in his heart. He smelled a little drunk, but he was not drunk.
"I told you to read more and stop drinking, but you ignored me! Have you forgotten the disaster you caused three years ago because of your drinking?"
What kind of books are you reading? There are so many scholars in the Chen Mansion, aren't they working for them? How dare his father mention three years ago?
Back then, he was drunk and talked nonsense. They all said that Xue Guangxian was driven away by him.
But later he found out that his drunkenness that night was just a test of his father's attitude towards Xue Guangxian.
By then, the Chen family had returned to its peak, and it was time for his father to fulfill his promise.
But Xue Guangxian's request was difficult to fulfill. He had to allocate a large piece of land to the Li people as their own, provide them with free schools, give them farmland, arrange jobs for them, and help them integrate into the local community...
How much will all this cost?
Besides, money is secondary. There are some other troubles that are extremely difficult to deal with.
His father didn't want to fulfill his promise, so he used him to test him. However, he didn't expect Xue Guangxian to be so cruel. He turned around and joined forces with several other families to deal with the Chen family.
