Chen Bao spoke and was about to go inside to grab a pig-killing knife!
Chen Biao looked at him and was speechless, angrily scolding: "Second brother! Can you not be so careless!"
"Big brother, then tell what to do! Just say it, and I'll do it!" Chen Bao, after being scolded by Chen Biao, gave up trying.
Chen Biao put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, a sinister look appeared in his eyes, with a cold glint that made one's scalp tingle, making the children in the village cry from fright if they saw it!
"Li Chuan, this person, is a university student sent by Jiangzhou City College of Traditional Chinese dicine. If soone like him is killed in our village, the authorities will definitely take it seriously. With the current thods, and the grudges between us and him, the police will easily trace it back to us. By then, neither of us three brothers will escape!"
After speaking, Chen Biao paused for a mont: "We can kill him by another thod. He previously went to the herbal garden of the Jiangzhou College of Traditional Chinese dicine in our village, which ans he will go into the mountains to look for herbs."
"I rember, isn't there an old Polygonum multiflorum on Bear Ridge at the back of our mountain? Let's tell him the location of the Polygonum multiflorum!"
"Big brother! Do you know what you are saying?" Chen Du looked incredulous, "That is an over-two-hundred-year-old dicinal plant, already in shape. The elders in the village say eating it can make one immortal! Why would you let that bastard have it?"
Chen Bao also showed a doubtful look: "Big brother, what benefits did Li Chuan give you?"
Chen Bao thought this suspicion was not without reason because dealing with Chen Du's pet and Over-Peak, those poisonous and sly things, how could a university student like Li Chuan handle it?
Chen Biao's face darkened, cursing: "You two fools, understand nothing! That Polygonum multiflorum is precious, but after so long, who in the village dares to dig it? Do you dare? Do I dare? We don't dare, who else in the village would dare?"
Chen Bao and Chen Du fell silent upon hearing this.
Everyone in Taohua Village had set their sights on that Polygonum multiflorum, and the brothers had also been there.
Even though everyone was well-prepared and fully equipped, their old father still stayed there forever to save them.
Because it was Bear Ridge, ho to two bears!
Chen Du quickly understood Chen Biao's intention: "Big brother, you an to lure Li Chuan to Bear Ridge and let Xiong Da and Xiong Er take care of that kid?"
Chen Bao was also full of praise: "It still has to be big brother! Big brother's thinking is so thorough, this way, that kid will die, and our grudge will be avenged! Brilliant! Truly brilliant!"
...
It was the weekend, so the elentary school didn't have classes.
After breakfast, Li Chuan sat in the courtyard, playing on his phone.
After grading the howork, Zhou Ruolan also brought a small stool and sat next to Li Chuan.
"Chuan, I have an idea regarding Taohua Village, see if it works." Zhou Ruolan said.
"Let's hear it." Li Chuan was idle anyway, so he chatted with the beautiful teacher.
Zhou Ruolan: "The inco of the villagers in Taohua Village is generally low, though I see they grow herbs like Yuan Hu and Pseudostellaria. But due to marketing issues, they don't make much money even after a year of hard work."
"I think we could try to purchase these herbs and help them sell them, that way, we could help the villagers earn so inco."
Li Chuan: "I went to the mountains around before, the Yuan Hu and Pseudostellaria in Taohua Village are quite nurous, but you're a teacher, how do you have so much money to buy them?"
Zhou Ruolan smiled: "Underestimating ? I have saved a lot these years, buying the herbs of one village is easy."
Li Chuan: "Even if you can purchase them, what's next? Will you keep them for yourself, or let them rot in your hands?"
Zhou Ruolan: "..."
She indeed had no connections for this. That's why she discussed it with Li Chuan since he is from Jiangzhou City College of Traditional Chinese dicine and might have connections.
Li Chuan took a sip of tea: "Teacher Zhou, your idea is good, but I think it will not only not help the villagers of Taohua Village, but actually harm them."
"They need to sell their herbs, but not in this way."
"Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifeti, what you're doing is a form of disguised charity."
"You're the teacher here, when soday you're no longer teaching here, who will they turn to then?"
Zhou Ruolan blushed: "This won't work, that won't work, then what to do? Just watch them stay poor? I teach class every day, seeing them in ragged clothes, with toes poking out of their shoes, do you know what that feels like?"
Li Chuan: "Actually, you can change your approach, not by buying, but by helping them open up the market. Together sell these herbs."
Zhou Ruolan: "You're right."
At this mont, Chen Sisi ca into the courtyard with a bamboo basket: "Dr. Li, Teacher Zhou, I went up the mountain today and found so kiwi, here's so for you to try. These kiwis are wild, delicious!"
Previously, Chen Sisi rarely ca here, Zhou Ruolan benefited from Li Chuan's presence, enjoying both wild ga and wild fruits.
"Sisi, you ca at the right ti." Li Chuan let Chen Sisi sit beside him, then said: "Did your family plant any herbs before?"
"Yes, right beside your college's herbal garden, three acres of Yuan Hu and two acres of Pseudostellaria, why are you asking about this? If you ask , planting them is in vain." Chen Sisi asked curiously.
Li Chuan explained Zhou Ruolan's idea of finding a market, which moved Chen Sisi, who didn't expect that not only did Chen Sisi co to teach, but also wanted to help them generate inco!
"If so, that would be great." Chen Sisi smiled, "Since Jiangzhou College of Traditional Chinese dicine stopped caring much about us, many people here don't want to plant anymore, now there are very few families still planting."
After chatting briefly, Chen Sisi got up to leave, Zhou Ruolan said: "Li Chuan, what do you think? Should we contact so manufacturers specializing in Chinese patent dicine prescriptions to sell all of Sisi's Yuan Hu and Pseudostellaria?"
Li Chuan smiled bitterly: "Teacher Zhou, those manufacturers require large quantities, with just what Sisi planted, it's not even enough for a snack for them!"
"Even if we sent it to them, they'd find it troubleso."
Zhou Ruolan frowned: "Then what to do?"
Li Chuan: "Teacher Zhou, Taohua Village is cooler than outside, last night I slept alone and it was quite cold, I even woke up in the middle of the night from the cold."
Zhou Ruolan blushed a little, looking at Li Chuan shyly: "What are you trying to say?"
