Chapter 127 Inspection (Part 2)

Ninghe Town is the farthest town from Shufeng Town within the jurisdiction of the Canal Governor's Office. The importance of this town will gradually become prominent with the renovation of the canal. Perhaps Ninghe Town will never have the current Shufeng Town, and the future Shufeng Town will be of great importance to the entire region and even the entire country. However, as an important node of the canal, Ninghe Town will become more prosperous and wealthy, without any doubt.

Ye Tao did not come to inspect the administration or supervise any project. There is indeed a large ship lock on the canal section near Ninghe Town, but the project is not difficult. Ninghe Town really attracted Ye Tao's attention because some anecdotes from near Ninghe Town some time ago made him interested in several aristocratic families near Ninghe Town.

There is a place called Fangcunshan near Ninghe Town. A specialty in the mountains is called Zili. In terms of function, it is a spice or a medicinal material. With the current underdeveloped plant taxonomy and chaotic and unsystematic medicine, these two functions are actually unified in the eyes of most people.

Zili's business has been controlled by the Le family in Ninghe Town for hundreds of years. Since the Le family was divided into three due to changes within some families decades ago, Zili's business has been divided into three veins. But what is strange is that these three veins still share a fixed part of Zili's resources, because no matter how they toss, it seems that Zili cannot survive from the unique water and soil of Fangcun Mountain. However, the three branches of the Le family did not set up a piece of land, but took turns to use Zili's resources according to the years, each family would be one year, and then replaced...

The three Lejia branches are called Lejia Tongmen, Lejia Baoshantang and Lejia Dongmen. Among them, Tongmen mainly operates a spice business, which is based on several major maritime merchants in Chunnan Kingdom. In fact, the unique spice of Zi pear, the face impact on the Tongmen branch is definitely greater than the actual benefits. In terms of financial resources, Tongmen now has the advantage of the vast land. Lejia Dongmen is the most declining among the three families. Dongmen has a good relationship with many medicinal materials merchants in Dongping. Because of its unique nature, Zi pear is also a rare medicinal material that many famous doctors like to use when treating some difficult and complicated diseases. However, it takes only three years to obtain a one-year output, so the business is quite difficult to do. Baoshantang is taking a different approach. They endured for about ten years when the three families compromised and distributed in turn, and tried many formulas with three rounds of output, and finally made them develop the world-famous patent medicine - "Shengji San".

Shengjisan, in some rumors, almost have the effect of the flesh and bones of the living dead. The one who is most passionate about Shengjisan is the martial arts people who enter the field of medicine. They have gained their strength and gradually got rid of the situation of single demand for purple pear land. In recent years, although Shengjisan is still the signature of Baoshantang, they have also expanded many projects in other fields of medicine.

However, when Shengji San just came out, Baoshantang was almost destroyed. It is a good idea to say that every man is innocent and has a guilty guilty of possessing a treasure. The three Lejias, which were originally disliked by each other, have all kinds of stories that happened in just a few years. It can be written into a very exciting series of more than 40 episodes. Among them are wining and differentiating, inferring and framing, violent raids, series of murders, and complex economic and interpersonal struggles. In the end, the three Lejias became almost the East.

A small epitome of the struggle between Ping, Chunnan and Xiling. Tongmen relied on the strong financial resources of Chunnan Haizhuang to advance step by step. Dongmen unexpectedly received support from some powerful martial arts people from Xiling Kingdom. Baoshantang, forced to do nothing, gave up his always independent attitude and gave up his respite by offering spiritual medicine to the Dongping royal family, winning a chance to breathe. Then, with the intentional or unintentional help of Zeng Man and others, he gradually gained a foothold. Baoshantang has thus become a unique merchant loyal to the Dongping royal family.

The reason why Ye Tao came to Ninghe Town was because in some documents sent by Zeng Man a while ago, he mentioned the Lejia in Ninghe Town, and an old pharmacist in Baoshantang said that there was a strengthening formula of Shengjisan. It has a very good effect on regulating the aged injuries, especially the heart and lung veins. The old pharmacist had heard of Tan Weixin's disease and believed that this medicine should have a good effect on improving the body of His Royal Highness the Princess. The Imperial Medical Supervisor accepted the medicine offered by Baoshantang, but did not dare to use it rashly for the princess. After all, from Shengjisan and Zili's usual pharmacological manifestations, it was too domineering, and Baoshantang refused to give this detailed formula of strengthening Shengjisan, which made the imperial doctors who were seeking stability and over change unable to make up their mind to hand the medicine to Tan Weixin for any reason.

If it were just these things, Ye Tao might not have been interested in coming to Ninghe Town. There have been many strange people in Ninghe Town recently. Some of these people are obviously Jianjiazi, and the interest these people have shown in the canal construction and various things under the canal Governor's Office is a bit uneasy. The most suspicious thing is that there are two people pretending to be civil servants from other places and mixing with the team of civil servants who build the river. If it weren't for one time, one would have transported earth and stones.

A landslide suddenly occurred on the slope. In the flash, the two trainees showed some skills, allowing the servants around a noble family official to see through the construction site. Perhaps these two people are still lurking. After that incident, what is even more incredible is that the traces of the two people completely disappeared in just a few hours, which made the scouts team, who came later, who are now responsible for intelligence collection and sorting rather than battlefield reconnaissance, gained nothing.

Since the resolution to build the canal was issued until now, people of insight from all countries have clearly seen the significance of the canal. The canal can not only revitalize various products on the Qingluo Plain, but also provide strong guarantees for Danyang, the capital of Dongping, and improve the surrounding economic development level and living standards. Just passing the canal through the canal in the future, the Dongping Navy can go straight to Chunnan, which is enough to alert all parties. During the honeymoon period of the relationship between Dongping and Chunnan, if Xiling invades Chunnan, the Dongping army can provide quick support. So, what if the relationship between Dongping and Chunnan is not so good in the future? Then the canal will become a sharp sword hanging above the head of Chunnan.
