The Tianze Incense Pill was an incense recipe that Yu Youyao had researched and created on the basis of an ointnt.
“If it’s used for a long ti, can it cure the illness completely?”
The dicinal cuisine and incense pills were both for consumption. The County Head of Shaoyi did not take them out at first because she was cautious. When she found out that her mother had used ointnt and the effect was very good, she confird the state of her health.
Yu Youyao did not finish her sentence. “Your mother is in her pri. Her muscles and bones are still strong. If she uses it for a long ti, the possibility of complete treatnt is very high.”
Her words made Lin Ruoru very excited so she moved on to the topic of disaster relief. “When the elders in the family found out that you were mainly buying dicine from the Lin and Yan families to relieve the disaster, they decided to reduce their supplies to the other rchants and fully support you. They also took the initiative to reduce the price by 15%. It can be considered as doing their best for the affected commoners in the north.”
dicinal herbs were rare resources, and the price had always been high. The Lin family had already taken the initiative to reduce the price by 15%. Yu Youyao imdiately expressed her gratitude.
Lin Ruoru continued, “If you have no objections, please go to the governnt office tomorrow to discuss and implent the cooperation and establish a contract. The Lin family will prepare as fast as possible. The dicinal herbs that the County Head needs can also be used by the affected people in the north as soon as possible.”
Yu Youyao nodded. “Okay, let’s set it at nine tomorrow.”
Lin Ruoru continued, “The Yan family also has soone in charge in Quanzhou, but it will take ti to send the news to the Yan family. At that ti, the Yan family will prepare the dicinal herbs that you need. If it’s convenient for you, send soone who can be in charge over to the Yan Residence. The dicinal herbs will be transported directly from Shuzhou to avoid back and forth. It will also be faster.”
Yu Youyao nodded. “No problem.”
Zhou Yonghe was the most suitable person to handle such a matter.
Lin Ruoru ntioned again that after the preparations for the collaboration disaster relief were completed, they could discuss the exchange of dicinal herbs in the Daoist area. It could be considered as expressing their willingness to cooperate.
After that, Lin Ruoru left with the dicinal cuisine recipe that Yu Youyao had prepared and the Tianze Incense Pill.
Yu Youyao returned to the Yi Water Garden, changed into her usual clothes, and went to the front hall.
The entire Xie family was talking in the hall, and the atmosphere was a little heavy.
Yu Youyao had to explain the reason for her personal appearance today. Although the Xie family could guess it, there were definitely so things that had to be explained clearly.
“Quanzhou is under the rule of the Jiazhou Residence. Their control over Quanzhou can’t be underestimated. Since he has the intention to roast over the fire, other than coming to apologize humbly, he definitely has a backup plan. It’s not difficult to guess that he wants to create public opinion. Under such circumstances, we definitely can’t bring him into the residence and close the door to talk. Otherwise, the Xie Residence won’t be able to clear our na even if we jump into the Yellow River.”
“She used the identity of the County Head of Shaoyi to intimidate the Jiazhou Residence, but the rumors have already been spread. Many people know about this matter, and everyone will have their own thoughts. No matter how much she explains later, it will all beco excuses.”
“This is also a good solution. If we expose the matter of buying dicine from the Lin family in public, not only will the Jiazhou Residence not dare to continue spreading rumors, but they will even take the initiative to help clarify the rumors.”
Jiazhou Residence was caught off guard by her wanting to help the Imperial Court relief the disaster, so they lowered their status and retreated.
Yu Youyao put down her teacup. “At most, the Jiazhou Residence’s actions against the Xie Residence have changed from being blatant to being secretive. They’re determined to get the Xie Residence. According to our original plan, how long will it take for the Xie Residence to evacuate completely?”
Xie Xun said, “It’ll take at least three to four months.”
Yu Youyao frowned. “That’s too slow. The actions of the Jiazhou Residence today are already part of King Liang’s plan. He doesn’t need to wait for the news of the Emperor’s critical illness to spread before attacking the Xie Residence. He only needs to bring hundreds or thousands of elite troops and disguise themselves as a caravan. They’ll cooperate with the Jiazhou Residence and enter the city in batches. Then, they can control the entire Quanzhou. At tis, they’ll kill a few people and create public opinion. They’ll announce to the public that vicious bandits have entered the city. The governnt office of the state capital will cordon off Quanzhou, and we’ll be trapped.”
Yin Huaixi could even arrange for a hundred elite troops to enter Quanzhou.
Why couldn’t King Liang?
Old Master Xie’s expression changed drastically. It was already obvious that the Jiazhou Residence was colluding with King Liang. Yu Youyao’s words were simply too possible.
The others did not look too good.
Yu Youyao asked, “How’s the plan to evacuate Quanzhou arranged?”
Xie Liao said, “So of the Xie family’s assets have been transferred to the North, and another batch has been transferred to the Huai River area.”
The eggs could not be placed in the sa basket. No matter how good King Yue Fei’s promise was, it was impossible for the Xie family to bet all their assets on him.
Yu Youyao understood the rationale, but the situation did not allow it. “Transfer all the businesses that were originally going to the Huai River area to the North. We can leave Quanzhou in two months at the latest.”
Xie Tiao said, “According to you, King Liang can make a move at any ti. The North is even further from Quanzhou than the Huai River. Why should we give up on the near and seek the far? Besides, the Huai River is a Min people’s settlent. We’ll have an advantage when we reach the Huai River. The Xie family has been doing business for generations. The North is more barren, and it’s not good for business.”
The Xie family had decided to go to the North to surrender to King Yue Fei.
However, the current situation was disadvantageous to the Xie Residence. The Xie Residence could temporarily head to Huai River to plan for their funeral.
Yu Youyao said, “I’ve made two arrangents. I’ll send a letter to the Empress Dowager and report that the Jiazhou Residence has beco vicious and hard the commoners. I’ll also send a letter to the Yu Clan. At that ti, the Yu Clan will mobilize their connections in the court and vigorously impeach the Jiazhou Residence. We can temporarily delay the Jiazhou Residence.”
“Tomorrow, I’ll go to the governnt office and negotiate a contract with the Lin Residence. The matter of purchasing dicine for disaster relief will spread throughout Quanzhou. At the sa ti, I’ve also arranged for people to spread this matter to the entire Great Zhou as soon as possible. Disaster relief is a huge matter for the country. The Jiazhou Residence can’t attack the Xie Residence at this juncture.”
“It will take at least a month to collect the dicinal herbs and transport them to the North. During this period of ti, the Xie family’s situation is quite safe. We can use the carriages and boats to transport the dicinal herbs and transfer so of our most important manpower and assets to the North first.”
“The dicinal herbs for the disaster relief have left the port of Quanzhou, and the commotion in the capital has also spread to Quanzhou. The Jiazhou Residence has to deal with the Imperial Court, so they won’t be able to do anything for a while. They’ll be delayed for at least half a month.”
Xie Jingliu nodded. “Little Yao’er’s arrangents are the safest thod for the Xie family. There’s a huge advantage in choosing the North. It’s a little far along the coast of Liaodong in the North, but it’s very convenient to travel by sea. When the rchant ship arrives in Liaodong, it’s in the North under King Yue Fei’s jurisdiction. It’s safe, convenient, and fast.”
“The area around Liaodong Province is also a place with few resources in the North. It’s very beneficial to the developnt of the Xie family. On the other hand, it’s not easy to move to the Huai River area. As long as the rchant ship doesn’t leave Fujian, it’ll be easier to be exposed under King Liang’s watch.”
