Chapter 199: Investing Money



When Xue Xu and his party left, they drove away four carriages, two of which were filled with medicinal materials.

Before, they had two or three carts of medicinal materials, which were purchased with the four thousand taels of silver that Qin Sheng rewarded after he found the private warehouse of the owner of Qinglong Village. These medicinal materials were of the best quality and had never been sold.

People in later generations know that selling raw materials is actually the least profitable. Rough processing can make more money. The most profitable thing is to process the product deeply and give it added value. In this way, the value and price of the goods will go up.

In general, medicinal materials that have not been processed in any way cannot be sold as much as Chinese patent medicines.

It's just that they were on the road before and didn't have the conditions to make medicine.

Now that Xue Xu went to Longcheng, Lu Songli asked Xue Xu to take away two full carts, and they only left a quarter of them. In addition, she gave him three prescriptions for making medicine. Let him recruit or buy people after arriving in Longcheng, in short, he should put the matter of making medicine on the agenda.

She wrote down the preparation of relevant medicinal materials, the steps of making medicine, etc., and even prepared the difficulties they would encounter in the process of making medicine.

After entering Liaoxi County, Lv Songli and his group had consumed more than half of their food. Together with the carriages they had purchased, they had ten empty carriages!

Perhaps it was because the previous medicinal material trading made them rich once, and the brothers paid special attention to the quality and price of local medicinal materials on the way back.

This attention is incredible. Liaoxi and Liaodong are treasure troves of various high-end medicinal materials. Ginseng, Gastrodia, Gentian, Angelica, Ganoderma, Polygonum multiflorum, Cordyceps sinensis, all of which are good goods favored by the nobles in Chang'an.

They asked about the price and found it was really cheap.

After asking, they drooled over these precious medicinal materials one by one.

Living in Chang'an, they still knew the price of these medicinal materials. Here, they are really cheap. Some medicinal materials are almost like picking them up for free.

Looking back and seeing ten empty carriages, they felt itchy. Waste, too much waste.

Yang Wei was urged by his brothers to find Lu Songli, wanting her to take them to collect herbs again.

"Sixth Young Master Madam, the herbs here are really too cheap, and it would be unfair to them if we don't collect them."

The brothers were all listening.

The soldiers of the reconnaissance team nodded in their hearts when they heard this. Chief Yang was right, that's it, it doesn't matter whether the price difference is earned or not, the main thing is that they can't bear to see the pearl covered in dust.

The brothers of Yang Wei's escort agency also nodded when they heard this. The chief was right, it was definitely not that they planned to collect a batch of herbs and bring them back to Chang'an City to resell them, hoping to make a fortune. They just couldn't bear to see the carriage empty, it was a waste, too much waste.

Lu Songli smiled and said, "I won't take the lead in this matter. This time, let Wu Ren take the lead, and you assist. I can provide technical support and help you check and so on."

We have already reached the border of western Liaoning, so it's not appropriate to make too much noise. And then, her attention will be drawn to other important things.

Let Wu Ren lead this project, firstly, it can train him, let her see what the results are after teaching for so long. Secondly, it will let them make some money.

Let him take the lead? Wu Ren suddenly felt a huge pressure. To be honest, he felt that he was still very green and had a lot to learn.

Yang Wei hesitated, "Wu Ren, can he do it?"

Lu Songli: "Try it. It's better for him to come than for you to do it yourself."

Yang Wei thought about it and it was true. If Wu Ren was not allowed to come, he felt that he could not help but make a move.

Everyone decided to do it, so they started to invest money.

"One hundred taels!"

"Two hundred taels!"

"Four hundred taels!"

"Eight hundred taels!"

Wu Ren was responsible for recording. While recording, he kept shouting to everyone to be more cautious, "Brothers, everyone invest less."

"Stop talking nonsense, just write yours!" Hu Guangcong threw down a thousand taels directly.

They invested not only their own share, but also helped the brothers who went to the North Border and Dragon City to invest one share. Otherwise, once everyone gathers together, they will probably be beaten to death.

"Yes, just record it!"

They only bet this little bit, what does it count?

They originally thought that the Sixth Young Master's wife would take the lead again this time, and the money was ready, and they planned to bet all in again this time.

But in the end, Wu Ren took the lead, so they only bet a quarter.

Wu Ren said with a bitter face, "I'm afraid I can't handle the big responsibility. If you lose all your money, I really want to die to apologize." This herbal medicine business is very complicated. He is not his master, so his skills are still shallow.

"Pfft, don't say such unlucky words!"

"Since Sixth Young Lady says you can do it, you have to do it even if you can't!"

"Yes, we don't believe you, we believe in Sixth Young Lady's vision."

"Mooncake, Sixth Young Lady has been guiding you for so long, you have to show your ability, don't embarrass Sixth Young Lady."

This nickname of Mooncake was accidentally called out by Sixth Young Lady once, and then everyone called Wu Ren that, although they didn't know what mooncake was.

"I'll also throw in a thousand." Lu Songli threw down a piece of gold worth one hundred taels.

"Sixth Young Lady, you come to join in the fun." Wu Ren said helplessly.

Lu Songli and he have a master-disciple relationship, and they can only change their words after a formal ceremony.

Lu Songli smiled and patted his shoulder, "Do a good job, I believe in you."

After Lu Songli threw in, Qin Heng, Qin Zhao, Yang Wei, Xu Zheng and others also followed suit and threw in a thousand.

Over there, the team members were investing money enthusiastically.

Here, Qin Jia, Qin Han, Qin Yu, Qin Zhen and other children came to find Lu Songli again, saying that they also wanted to invest money.

They wanted to take out half of the gold deposited with her, and keep the other half.

Lu Songli asked Qin Jia, "What if we lose money?" Among the brothers and sisters, Qin Jia was obviously the one who made the decision.

Qin Jia replied, "Then we still have half deposited with you, Aunt Six, and we will spend it together."

According to Yu Di's spending speed, she carefully calculated that it would not be long before the gold deposited by Yu Di with Aunt Six would not be able to cover his debt. She thought that the loan of Aunt Six should be paid off in the morning. In addition, they still needed money to make money, and she thought this was a good opportunity.

"That's fine, just make your decision."

"Sixth aunt, take out my share and Yudi's share."

"You take it out in advance, the interest cannot be calculated at 7 points. And Xiaoyu, because you have no collateral, I need to forcibly recover the loan and related interest." Lu Songli found that Qin Jia was adventurous and generous.

Qin Yu said, "Okay."

When Lu Songli put two pieces of gold of different sizes in front of the two, Qin Yu opened his mouth wide, "Sixth aunt, I only have this little gold left?"

Compared to the eldest cousin, how come he has less than a big piece!

Lu Songli asked him with a smile, "Do you need me to calculate how many times you have borrowed from me and how much loan interest you have incurred?"

Qin Jia looked at Qin Yu helplessly. She had already calculated it. She counted his gold and said, "Sixth aunt, no need to calculate, it's correct."

Qin Jia took the younger ones to Wu Ren's place. On the way, I don't know what she said to Qin Yu. Qin Yu turned around and looked at his sixth aunt, covering his mouth with his hands and eyes wide open.

Lu Songli smiled as they left. Boy, if your eldest sister wasn't smart, you would have owed money to your sixth aunt and had to work for her after a while!
