Xiang Nan traveled outside for half a month and visited half of the Guanzhong area, which also broadened his horizons a lot.

It has to be said that the lives of ordinary people today are really hard.

Most people are in a state of hunger, and few can eat three meals a day, while many can only eat two or even one meal a day.

The food was also very poor. Xiang Nan originally thought that eating porridge was already bad, but there are still many people who eat tree bark and wild vegetables. They peel off the bark of the trees, crush it and eat it as flour.

Therefore, all the faces are sallow, thin, and have a sallow complexion.

In addition, along the way, there were many people selling their sons and daughters. Selling them in the market was the same as selling pigs or sheep, as if people were livestock.

When Xiang Nan saw it, he felt sad in his heart.

In comparison, the lives of those dignitaries in the city are so extravagant and extravagant that it is hard to bear to look at them.

They eat and drink in big restaurants, take foreign cars to visit brothels and hold parties. A bottle of foreign wine costs hundreds of oceans, a piece of jewelry costs thousands of oceans, and a car costs tens of thousands of oceans...

Living a life of music and entertainment every night, it seems like we are in two different worlds from the common people.

Seeing this, Xiang Nan couldn't help but sigh.

The wine and meat in Zhumen stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road.

…

Half a month later, Xiang Nan ended his travels and returned to Bailuyuan.

Since then, he has become much quieter.

He no longer freely expresses his opinions on current affairs, nor does he show his public appearance easily. He only tells the outside world that he wants to practice asceticism in seclusion.

Despite this, the incense of the Laozu Temple is still strong, and it is still the most trusted temple among the people within a hundred miles.

…

Two months later, the poisonous seeds planted by Bai Jiaxuan bloomed with bright red, white and pink flowers, which dazzled the villagers.

However, the villagers didn't understand why Bai Jiaxuan planted such a field of flowers. After all, the flowers can only be looked at and cannot be eaten as food.

While the villagers were confused, Bai Jiaxuan was already preparing to brew the poison.

That night, a strange aroma filled the village, which shocked the villagers.

"What is it that smells so good?"

"What do the Bai family cook at night? The pork stew is not so fragrant during the Chinese New Year, right?"

"It's out of season, what kind of meat are you stewing? I think it must be weird."

Turning around, the villagers started talking about it.

Bai Xing'er secretly found Lu Zilin and revealed Bai Jiaxuan's background to him, "Lu Xiang, I know what Bai Jiaxuan has done~"

"What?" Lu Zilin asked curiously.

"Smoke." Bai Xing'er said.

Lu Zilin was startled, "I don't dare to talk nonsense. How did you know?"

"I've tasted it outside, and it tastes the same as this." Bai Xing'er explained.

Lu Zilin was stunned for a moment.

…

Suddenly, Lu Zilin followed Bai Jiaxuan into the city and saw him enter a drug store in the city.

When he inquired later, it turned out that Bai Jiaxuan was selling just that.

So when he returned to the village, he spread the word about it, making the villagers suddenly realize it.

When Bai Jiaxuan came back from the city, Lu Zilin led people to greet him, "Jiaxuan, have you gone to the city to sell medicine?"

"What?" Bai Jiaxuan was stunned, "How did you know?"

"What kind of medicine are you selling? Tell the folks about it." Lu Zilin asked again.

"Is there any medicine to cure the disease?" Bai Jiaxuan glanced at everyone's eyes and said casually, and saw that everyone's expressions were a bit subtle.

"What kind of medicine is it so secretive?" Lu Zilin said with a smile, casually picked up Bai Jiaxuan's robe and immediately pulled it to the ground.

Immediately, two silver coins wrapped in red paper rolled out of the bag, and the white silver coins immediately scattered on the floor.

"..." All the villagers present took a breath of cold air.

Many people have never seen so much money in their lifetimes.

As the saying goes, good wine makes people's faces red, and wealth and silk make people's hearts move. For a moment, everyone's eyes were straight.

"Ah, what are you doing?" Bai Jiaxuan said angrily, quickly got out of the car and picked up the silver dollar.

"Nothing, I'm happy for you." Lu Zilin said with a playful smile, "Oh, Jiaxuan has become famous. What kind of medicinal materials do you sell, how can you sell them for so much money?"

Bai Jiaxuan ignored him and concentrated on picking up the money.

But this matter can no longer be concealed.

…

Later, the villagers of Bailu Village gathered at the ancestral hall and asked Bai Jiaxuan to give up the seeds so that they could plant them too.

"As the leader of the clan, you can't eat alone."

"If your clan leader grows it, we will grow it too!"

"Everyone has to pay so much tax, and there is no money in hand. Why don't you give this seed to everyone, so that everyone can make some money."

The villagers spoke one after another.

But Bai Jiaxuan refused to give up.

He got this seed from Hu Ji Pharmacy, shopkeeper Hu.

He also knew that this stuff was not good, so he didn't dare to sell it randomly. If he wanted to sell it, he would sell it to Shopkeeper Hu for making medicinal materials.

But he knew that the villagers would not be as principled as he was, and would not only sell to pharmacies. Therefore, once he was allowed to let them grow, it would be difficult to manage.

By then, they can be sold to anyone. It's easy to sell it to drug stores, but the worst thing is to sell it to tobacco pipes, which will harm many people.

Therefore, he refused to give the seeds to the villagers.

However, the villagers were so greedy that he couldn't stop him even if he wanted to.

Although he tried to stop it, the villagers still decided to plant it. After all, no one could leave money without making money.

In addition, Lu Zilin fanned the flames and clamored that he would be responsible for anything that happened. So, suddenly, the villagers went to the city to look for seeds.

Bai Jiaxuan knew that the root of this disaster had been planted, and next year, the whole plain would be covered with such flowers.

It's just that it's too late to regret it now. Not to mention the villagers, even he himself, looking at the white silver ocean, is reluctant to make money.

…

Sure enough, in the next year, everyone in the village planted those poisonous seeds in their best land.

But only corn and millet were planted in the broken ground.

Seeing this, Xiang Nan sighed.

Although the villagers can indeed make some money by selling those things in a short period of time, in the long run, they are drinking poison to quench their thirst. Not only will they not make a fortune, they will have to pay the heaviest price in the end.

Sure enough, after autumn, the villagers who had made money began to enjoy themselves as much as they wanted.

Money is this thing, easy come easy go! Easy to come, easy to spend.

The villagers gained one acre of land in exchange for ten acres of grain, and each of them became rich and had living money in their hands.

As for the so-called "feast, warmth, lust, and lust", after getting rich, people have more desires for sex, and the land gradually becomes chaotic, and the customs begin to gradually deteriorate.

There are people who gather together to make money, some who charge high interest rates, some who listen to pornographic shows, some who climb on the widow's bed, some who commit petty theft, some who cheat and kidnap, and some who even draw the money themselves...

Eating, drinking, gambling, cheating, cheating, stealing, all the ten poisons are gone.

Xiang Nan saw it in his eyes and sighed in his heart.

He knew that these villagers could not make a fortune by growing that thing.

Because people can't make money beyond what they know. These people have never seen the world. They have been digging in the soil for thousands or hundreds of years. They are used to living in poverty. They can't save money even if they have money. They only know how to live in poverty. Spending money indiscriminately.
