"Young Master Chen, it's better not to trouble yourself. We appreciate your kindness."
Zhang Xi also didn't want to trouble Qin Chen.
"Uncle, if you tell me, one more person will give you one more way to brainstorm ideas." Qin Chen said with a smile.
"That's...okay."
Zhang Xi hesitated for a moment, sighed, and immediately told what happened.
It turns out that the Zhang family is a family that specializes in elixirs in the capital of Da Qi. At the same time, there are several manors growing medicinal materials outside the capital.
However, the Zhang family does not produce elixirs, but obtains elixirs by selling medicinal materials to the Li family, a wealthy family in the royal capital.
The Li family is a partner of the Dan Pavilion in the royal capital. In addition to producing some of the elixirs themselves, most of the elixirs are also obtained from the Dan Pavilion and then distributed to the Zhang family through subcontracting.
Aristocratic families, seeking profits.
The cooperation between the Zhang family and the Li family has been going on for decades and has always been very stable.
Unexpectedly, just this morning, the Li family sent someone to deliver the news, and the cooperation with the Zhang family ended.
This made the Zhang family anxious.
The Zhang family's medicinal materials have always been supplied to the Li family in exchange for elixirs. Once the cooperation of the Li family is lost, not only will the medicinal materials not be sold, but the source of the elixirs will also be lost.
You must know that the two giants of elixirs in the royal capital are Jubao Pavilion and Dan Pavilion.
Among them, the Zhang family has never had any relationship with Jubaolou, and it is impossible to obtain elixirs from them.
The Li family, however, represents Dange's external interests. Once the relationship with the Li family is severed, the relationship between the Zhang family and Dange will also be severed.
This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to a medicinal pill family.
"Why did the Li family suddenly cut off cooperation with your Zhang family?" Qin Chen frowned.
Zhang Xi smiled bitterly and said: "This is also where we are confused. Our cooperation with the Li family has always been very good, and the quality of our Zhang family's medicinal materials is second to none near the royal capital. After the Li family acquires it, they often sell it to Dan
Ge, logically they will never sever cooperation with us, but who knows..."
"Moreover, the severance of cooperation this time came too suddenly, without any warning. Something must have happened here. The key is that we have no clue at all."
"Actually, it's not that I don't have a clue."
At this time, a steward of the Zhang family suddenly said.
"oh?"
Qin Chen looked over.
The steward said: "Actually, it's just a guess. I did some research. Last night, someone from the Zhao family in Lingnan entered the Li family. This morning, the Li family sent someone to pass the news, so I was wondering if this matter could happen.
It will be related to the Zhao family in Lingnan."
"It's unlikely." Zhang Xi shook his head, "Although the Lingnan Zhao family is the largest medicinal material merchant in Lingnan and is also a supplier and seller of Lingnan elixirs, there is no conflict between us and the Lingnan Zhao family, and the market we occupy is also small.
It’s completely different, there is absolutely no need for them to block us.”
"What's more, I have inquired and found that except for our Zhang family, other families that cooperate with the Li family have not stopped cooperating. It can be seen that this matter should be a problem on our Zhang family's side."
Everyone in the Zhang family lowered their heads and meditated, but they couldn't figure out the reason.
Lingnan Zhao family?
Qin Chen was startled in his heart.
He remembered that Zhao Feng's natal family should be in Lingnan. His ancestor was once the king of Lingnan. Later, the bloodline became thin and the fiefdom was cancelled. However, the Zhao family's power in Lingnan is still great. It is the largest wealthy family in Lingnan. It is rumored that they control the secrets of Lingnan.
Half of the country.
Could it be that this matter has something to do with me?
If you think about it carefully, this is not impossible.
With Zhao Feng's viciousness, he could not help himself, so he would definitely start with the people around him. Since Zhang Ying and Lin Tian had a very good relationship with him, it was reasonable to deal with their families.
In this way, the Zhang family was simply implicated by themselves.
Qin Chen smiled bitterly and was speechless.
Unexpectedly, after going around and around, it ended up being related to myself.
"Master, how about we bypass the Li family and contact Dan Pavilion directly. After all, our Zhang family's medicinal materials are the best near the capital. I don't believe that Dan Pavilion doesn't need medicinal materials." A person in charge.
proposal.
Zhang Xi smiled bitterly: "After receiving the news, I personally went to Dange's branch in Fang City in the morning, but not only could I not see the person in charge, I couldn't even enter the gate of Dange branch.
In my opinion, the Li family must have said hello in advance, and with the relationship between the Li family and Dange, it is not a problem at all to block us."
"What?"
"What should I do?"
"When we supplied medicinal materials to the Li family and Dange, we already offended Jubaoge to death. If Dange blocks us now, we won't be able to survive at all."
Everyone panicked.
If it is true as Zhang Xi said, then the Zhang family will not be able to survive at all and will have no chance at all.
"Don't worry, everyone, things are not without improvement. What we have to do now is to find out why the Li family banned us. Secondly, it is best to open up the relationship with Dange. As long as Dange is willing to take our medicinal materials, even if they don't in the future,
By selling elixirs, our Zhang family can survive."
"Master, how much profit can we make from selling medicinal materials? If this continues, our Zhang family may not even be able to protect our family."
"Yes, I can only survive and barely survive in the capital."
"These days are too miserable."
Everyone spoke up, the worry on their faces clearly revealed.
Zhang Xi sighed, he didn't know what everyone was talking about, but for the present, this was the only way.
"In this case, Zhang Fei, you go to Li's house to find out the reason, and then I will personally go to the Dange branch in Fang City to see if I can get in touch with Dange."
Zhang Xi said bitterly, this is the only possibility.
At this moment, Uncle Li suddenly walked in with a solemn face and said in a deep voice: "Master, it's not good. People from the Li family, Dange, and the Fang City Law Enforcement Team arrived at our main store in the center of Fang City and announced that we
The Zhang family’s elixirs are all substandard, and our Zhang family’s qualifications to sell elixirs have been cancelled. Now the people from the Fang City Law Enforcement Team are going to demolish our Zhang family’s shop.”
What?
When the news fell, everyone in the backyard was in an uproar. Everyone looked pale and stepped back.
"Are you sure the people from Dan Pavilion are here too?" Zhang Xi suddenly stood up, not even noticing that the hot tea in his hand splashed onto his hand.
"Master, you can't be wrong. The one who came to Dange was Mu Xun, the person in charge of the Dangefang City branch."
boom!
The tea cup in Zhang Xi's hand fell to the ground and shattered instantly.
"The Li family is preparing to kill everyone."
"It's over. Mu Xun, the general person in charge of the Dange branch, has come forward. There is no room for maneuver at all."
"What did our Zhang family do to make the Li family so cruel?"
Everyone in the Zhang family looked gray and full of despair.
