Chapter 033 Trading Conference

Please collect, recommend, click, support...



The people can relax, but Wu Tao dared not relax at all. He was not so eager to capture Wang Yonggui. He knew very well that if he wanted to capture Wang Yonggui, he had to pay an extremely huge price. I don’t know how many lives he would have to fill in it. Not to mention anything else, the money to provide pensions to these subordinates who died was enough for him to scratch his head.

Wu Tao thought very simply, just learn from Shaowei County, let the disaster move eastward, drive Wang Yonggui out of Sanshan County, and then go wherever Wang Yonggui goes. As long as he is not in my Sanshan County, he will burn high incense. However, Wang Yonggui is like a turtle who has eaten a weight, and is determined to stay in Sanshan County. No matter how Wu Tao sends people to drive him away, he refuses to leave Sanshan County.

Wu Tao even once sent someone to shout to Wang Yonggui that as long as Wang Yonggui is willing to leave Sanshan County, he can not only give Wang Yonggui five hundred taels of silver, but also be willing to send someone to give Wang Yonggui a gift to leave the country. But Wang Yonggui ignored his fault.

Wu Tao was really helpless. In addition to continuing to apply for more aid from the prefect, he also hanged a reward notice at the city gate to recruit brave men and assist the county government in arresting Wang Yonggui.

This made the atmosphere in the county town, which was already a little relaxed, become tense again. Many ordinary people were so scared that they stayed at home and did not dare to go out.

Li Wenjun also felt the change in the atmosphere. He failed to refine the alchemy and could only seize the time to practice martial arts and strengthen his body. He spent half an hour more every day in the martial arts hall than before.

Sanshan County is an inconspicuous small county in the entire Song Dynasty and does not have much status, so the martial arts hall set up here is just that. Whether it is the owner of the martial arts hall or the fist master, he has limited skills.

Li Wenjun learned very ordinary skills here. What is different from other martial arts practitioners is that he insists on practicing "Changchun Gong" every day. The little bit of pitiful spiritual energy he absorbs every day will have some positive effects on his muscles and bones, which makes him stronger than others, faster than others, react more sharply than others, and move more flexible than others.

So far, Li Wenjun has been learning martial arts for several months, and I dare not say anything else. If he really can't make a living in the future, he will definitely be qualified to be an escort guard at the escort agency, and there will definitely be no problem in supporting his family. However, this is not the life he wants, and what he never forgets is still practicing.

On that day, Li Wenjun came back from the martial arts hall. He turned to the vegetable market and bought an old hen. He asked the chicken seller to help him clean it. He bought some wild mushrooms and other things and prepared to go home to stew the chicken.

It is also very hard to practice martial arts every day and work hard. If the nutrition cannot keep up, he cannot support it at all. Speaking of which, it is thanks to him who snatched the old Taoist storage package. It is precisely because of the gold, silver and precious jewelry inside that he does not need to worry about money.

When he got home, Li Wenjun sat next to the stove, first filled the iron pot with water and seasonings, and put the treated old hens into the iron pot, then grabbed a handful of wheat straw, lit it, filled it into the stove in the stove, and then added firewood bit by bit, and quickly burned the fire.

After the pot was boiled, it didn't take long for the chicken to smell the aroma of chicken. Li Wenjun sniffed and smelled the aroma of chicken, and suddenly felt his stomach rumbling.

The big dog raised by Li Wenjun ran over and lay at his feet. While absorbing the heat emitted from the stove, he stared at the iron pot, hoping that his owner would share it with some meat in a while.

Li Wenjun patted the big dog's head and cursed with a smile: "Greedy."

At this time, the big dog suddenly stood up and ran towards the yard gate. Soon, he heard Sun Jianing's voice coming from the yard gate. "Brother Wenjun, are you here?"

"Is it Jianing? Your nose is so weird that it's coming here at the meal time. Haha, come here quickly. Today I'll stew chicken, I can't finish it alone. Let's kill it together." Li Wenjun greeted with a smile.

Sun Jianing was not polite to Li Wenjun, and Li Wenjun had been at their house for free. The two of them had been so ripe that they could no longer be cooked. He walked to the stove, bent down, and took a deep breath of the rich fragrance coming from the iron pot.

"It smells so fragrant." Sun Jianing rubbed his hands and said, "Brother Wenjun, you have a rest first, I'll burn the fire for you."

Li Wenjun got up and gave up his seat to Sun Jianing. He didn't walk away, but moved another stool and sat down next to the stove. It was cold and the weather was still cold, so he still sat here warmly.

"Brother Wenjun, I remembered something when stewing this chicken. My father and mother talked about it two days ago and mentioned you. They said that you live here alone, eat and dress all day long, but have no income. This is not a long-term solution. Especially when you eat meat every now and then, you have to practice martial arts in the martial arts hall, and listen to books in the teahouse. No matter how rich you are, you can't stand such troubles. Brother Wenjun, do you think you should make a living by making money?" Sun Jianing said.

Li Wenjun smiled and said, "It's okay, I can hold on for a while."

"Brother Wen Jun, it is impossible to say this. As the saying goes, people have no future plans, and there will be immediate worries. Like me, you are all old and have always been young. In the past two days, people have been coming to my house and asking me for marriage proposals. I think you are almost done. You have to find a way to save more money. In the future, someone will tell you a beautiful wife. At that time, I will ask my sister-in-law to give birth to a few children and a family of them. How many days should be spent?" Sun Jianing said.

Li Wenjun smiled and said, "Jianning, how old are you? He just wanted to be the father of a child."

"What's wrong with this? Who doesn't come here like this?" Sun Jianing said without any hesitation.

Li Wenjun shook his head. In his hometown, the customs are actually not much different from those in Sanshan County. At his age, it is not uncommon to marry and have children. If it were in the past, he would have followed the crowd. How his parents arranged it and how he listened. But now, his horizons have broadened and he has greater pursuits, and his ambitions are no longer here.

"Brother Wenjun, don't care. Today, matchmaker Zhang came to our house to propose marriage. The woman asked for ten taels of silver and some silk and satin. The savings of our family in a year are probably the same. It's so difficult to marry a wife. If you don't think about saving money earlier, how can you do it?" Sun Jianing also had a childish face and was heavy that was not consistent with his age.

Li Wenjun smiled and said, "If you are short of money, I can help you pay it. Well, even if you lend it to you, it doesn't matter when you have it and when you pay it back, even if you don't."

Sun Jianing shook his head and said, "I know Brother Wenjun is nice to me, but I can't ask Brother Wenjun for money. Brother Wenjun, don't worry, I have a way to make money."

"What method? Tell me." Li Wenjun asked casually. Sun Jianing was honest and honest, so he didn't have to worry about doing something that would commit crimes.

Sun Jianing said: "Brother Wenjun, you also know that our Sanshan County is the intersection of the three mountains. These three mountains are Wufeng Mountain, Shao Ulsan and Tianhua Mountain. Many herbs grow on the mountains, so there are many herbs in our Sanshan County, and the medicinal materials here have always been very prosperous.

Every year before the New Year’s Element, there is a herb trading conference. The venue for the trading conference is Fengshou Town at the foot of Tianhua Mountain.

Every year when the herb trading conference is held, medicinal materials vendors from all over the world gather, which contains many opportunities to make money. The day after tomorrow is the day when the trading conference begins. I want to go over and see if I can find opportunities to make money."

Li Wenjun's heart moved and he asked, "Are you buying all kinds of herbs there?"

Sun Jianing said: "It can be said yes or not. Most of the common medicinal herbs are common at trading conferences. The rare herbs appear less frequently at trading conferences. For example, our family usually sends precious herbs to Fucheng and sells them to pharmacies like Huichuntang. In this way, we can earn 10% or 20% of the silver. However, large batches of herbs are still more cost-effective to trade at trading conferences."

Li Wenjun nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to Fengshou Town to take a look at the trading conference."

Sun Jianing was happy and said, "Okay, I told my father that we will set out to Fengshou Town tomorrow, so we can take care of it on the way."

Li Wenjun remembered another incident and asked, "Wang Yonggui has not caught it yet, and the transaction conference is still held as usual. Are you not afraid of him going to make trouble?"

Sun Jianing said: "My father said that as long as the sky doesn't fall and we are not afraid of killing us, will we still have to live a life? Besides, there are so many people in Sanshan County, how could we encounter us so by chance?"

Li Wenjun nodded as if he had some understanding.

The next day, Li Wenjun, Sun Baicao, Sun Jianing and his son set off on the road together. Sun Baicao hired a carriage to the carriage and pulled them, and there were still a large amount of herbs accumulated in nearly a year to rush towards Fengshou Town.

The journey was safe and smoothly arrived at Fengshou Town.

While chatting on the road, Sun Baicao talked about some interesting stories from the trading conference with Li Wenjun.

The medicinal materials merchants who came to the trading conference to purchase medicinal materials, in addition to purchasing wild herbs collected by the medicinal people, also encouraged locals to open up medicinal fields and plant those herbs with huge demand themselves. They often sign contracts with medicinal farmers, agreeing on the quantity and price of the purchase in the next year, and buying and selling on demand. Some medicinal farmers are greedy for cheapness and see that the medicinal herbs are easy to sell and make more money, and they follow the trend in the next year. As a result, they lose more and make less.
