Until the banquet was over, neither the shopkeeper of Huangqi Medicine Shop nor the middle-aged man came to talk to him alone, and Yunfei did not take the initiative to ask.
It wasn't until the next day that they came to visit.
When shopkeeper Huang came to the door, he cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Bai, my boss and I actually had something to discuss with you yesterday, but seeing that you were a little busy, I thought I'd come back today to bother you."
"Yesterday at the little girl's birthday party, I was really a little bit unable to get away. Please sit down, please."
After the two sat down to watch tea, they talked about the purpose of their trip.
The identity of the middle-aged man is the eldest son of General Song of Ning State.
Every country has a few loyal people.
The Song family is the patron saint of Ningguo.
However, the eldest son was said to be a concubine, so he did not join the army. Instead, he was separated and later joined the business community.
For this matter, General Song became very angry and used family tactics against him several times.
But judging from the fact that he has been quietly delivering medicine to the border for so many years, there should be a lot of moisture in these rumors.
After revealing his identity, the middle-aged man also explained: "Because I know too many people, in order not to expose my whereabouts, I changed my appearance. I'm sorry, but I can't show my true face to others."
Yunfei shook his head to show that he didn't care, "I understand."
Then the two talked about the current trends in the court.
Yunfei, who didn't want to get involved, was forced to listen a lot.
Probably the princes are now fighting among themselves more and more fiercely.
They were greedy for the money to repair the bridge, and they also took advantage of military supplies.
The Song family is loyal and only knows how to defend the border town. He is different. He is the Song family's last resort.
Having said so much, the first purpose is to test whether Yunfei has any effective wound medicine.
The second purpose is to expand the scale of his pharmacy and produce as many antipyretics and cold medicines as possible.
He wants to open up markets in other countries.
Use these medicines in exchange for food, cotton clothes and strong horses.
If there is a good wound medicine, it is possible to get back a batch of armor or weapons.
The eldest son of the Song Dynasty promised that if the emperor changed and the Song family was not defeated, he would be the emperor's merchant.
Yun Fei shook his head, "If the eldest son can make the decision, I would like to change the conditions, but it is too early to say this at this time."
"Now, can I ask which prince the Song family is interested in?"
After all, with Ning Guo's current situation, the most fundamental thing is not to change the country's leader.
If he were an ordinary country owner, he would still be pressured by the big powers to provide large sums of money and food every year to maintain peace.
Unless the one who replaces him is a particularly outstanding leader, someone who has the ability to change the status quo.
Otherwise no surprises.
After the middle-aged man was silent for a while, he said, "Master Bai is not afraid of knowing too much. If he doesn't help us, will he be silenced?"
"If the eldest son wants to do this, it can only be because he has misjudged the person.
When the time comes, a certain person is willing to use a prescription for trauma medicine in exchange for the safety of his wife and children. After all, they know nothing. "
The eldest son of Song sighed, "Since you can ask such a question, I know that you are also in favor of changing the king."
Several people were saying deadly things here, but luckily there were no ears through the wall.
"Master Bai Renyi, I also hesitated before I approached you.
But after I learned the cost of your prescription, I didn’t hesitate anymore. Your purpose is the same. "
The three of them talked in secret for a long time, which ended with Yunfei getting a contract sealed with a special seal.
After bidding farewell to the two of them, he went back to the study alone to daze.
He originally wanted to keep a low profile for the rest of his life and help the poor as much as he could. Unexpectedly, even God arranged an opportunity for him.
The last condition he proposed was the abolition of the poll tax and the laws of forced marriage by the government.
He can understand the land tax and business tax. If a country wants to survive, it should pay taxes.
But the poll tax and the forced division of wives are not very necessary.
What Ning Guo wanted was for the number of newborn boys to increase.
These two laws only exploit the common people.
A rich man can have as many wives and concubines as he wants without being assigned by the government, and it can be solved by spending money on conscription.
What about the poor? It's true that they can marry a wife and have children, but they don't dare to marry more or have more children.
If you can't feed them, what can you hand over to the court?
This means that the fertility rate of men is not high, but the mortality rate of women is quite high every day.
………
As for the prince whom the Song family wanted, he actually came from among the people.
With the characteristics of the current emperor's stallion, illegitimate children among the people can be said to be everywhere.
And this one was settled by General Song and placed in the adjutant's home.
He spent time in the military camp when he was young.
He is both civil and military, has a kind heart, and has enough skills.
The most important thing is that his biological mother is actually the daughter of Nan Chuji's family. The Song family only found out about it when someone from the Ji family came to visit her some time ago.
The Ji family has held the position of national advisor of the Southern Chu Dynasty for generations.
Therefore, if this prince ascends the throne, Master Ji will be able to exempt Ning Guo from paying tribute, or even reduce it by half.
Then use those breathers to develop rapidly.
After the court is stabilized, the Song family will go out to conquer the territory for the new emperor.
That is, annexing some small nearby countries that are about to perish to strengthen themselves.
Since ancient times, the forces in the world have been united for a long time and must be divided, and divided for a long time they must unite, so annexation is the trend.
Only the integration of many small countries can resist the pressure brought by these two dynasties.
But it's too early to tell.
Yunfei didn't really put his money on it. If he lost, he would maintain the status quo, but if he won, he would save some women who were suffering.
And all he has to do is his duty.
It was just a matter of opening a few more medicine shops and buying more mountains to grow medicinal materials. This was his plan.
As Baijia Pharmacy sprouted up across the country, more and more women found their own value.
They do easy work and earn more than the cargo workers at the dock.
Next to every medicine shop, there must be a school.
The tuition for children of female workers is reduced by half, and children from nearby who want to go to school can also attend. The tuition in the town is 70%.
All the price difference will be paid by Baijia Pharmacy, which is equivalent to a donation and earmarked funds.
The reputation of the owner of Bai Family Pharmacy spread throughout the land of Ningguo.
Because of him, everyone can buy effective medicines at low prices.
Because of him, women have other options.
Because of him, many children have gone to school.
…………
In Sanshui Town, Yunfei's family is quite famous, and people greet them warmly wherever they go.
The three children were also praised a lot.
As the child grew up, the three ladies no longer received good news from their stomachs, and many people began to introduce partners to him.
Even the first stop for a woman brought by the government to get married is the Bai Mansion, asking him to pick it first and then send it off...
But it's all in vain.
So as his reputation for loving children spread, his reputation for being devoted also quietly dissipated.
