In the Battle of Baima Mountain, Xixia was defeated and the Baima Mountain camp collapsed. Yeli Huaide was still smart and did not dare to fight against the Ming army. Instead, he ordered his Yeli family cavalry to prepare early and found a good opportunity to break the siege.
He went out and led most of the Yeli family's cavalry across the Baihe River.
When the accountability was held after the war, the court was in chaos, with different opinions on the reasons for the defeat. Yeli Wangrong, the deputy envoy to the privy council, and Gao Huaien, the governor in charge of Xingqing's power, targeted the commander of the Chaoshun Supervisory Army in the right chamber.
Li Liangfu, the commander of the army, said that he had embezzled the military pay and food that should have been sent to Baima Mountain, causing the army's morale to be unstable and its morale to be shaken.
The Li brothers firmly denied it. Because the Baima Mountain camp was captured by the Ming army, all documents and materials could not be verified, so no ironclad evidence could be found for a while. Later, Li Liangfu's brother, who was the secretary of the Zhongshu at the time, has now been promoted to Zhongshu.
Li Zhizhong, the assistant minister, ordered Wu Huawen, the commander of the left wing of the Baimaqiang Supervisory Army Division, to expose the situation, saying that Yeli Huaide led his army to escape at the critical moment of the war, resulting in the defeat of the army, and Yingzhi beheaded him to thank the world.
Wu Huawen was the general who guarded the natural danger of Baihe River. He was nearby when the army was defeated. His comprehensive memorial was very convincing. The leader of the country, Li Qianshun, was furious and immediately had Ye Li Huaidesuo imprisoned.
Fortunately, although Empress Dowager Gao returned to the throne of the young king, her prestige was still there after all. She stepped in to protect Yeli Huaide, and the king did not dare to force him. Under the mediation of Empress Dowager Gao, the Yeli family agreed to reduce the number of troops by half and hand over the power.
Two thousand members of the tribe were assigned to the Tuoba family, the Li family of the country, and Yeli Huaide was released from prison. He was found guilty and was not allowed to join the military again.
The Yeli family was an ally of the Gao family, and the Gao family was anxious if something happened. Therefore, Gao Yanei couldn't help but urge him: "If the Chengdong family has any good ideas, tell them quickly. If the young marquis can be freed from the crime,
, better than anything else.”
Cheng'an said: "Brothers Li Zhizhong and Li Liangfu were unable to be defeated before because they lost the Baima Mountain camp, military pay, grain, and baggage delivery documents and files, so there is no evidence. But can we think of a way?
, how about checking from the Ming Dynasty? The camp was captured by the Ming army, I wonder if the Ming army captured these documents?"
Gao Yanei's eyes lit up: "What does the Chengdong family mean by asking Director Zhao for help?"
Cheng'an said: "Back then, Li Liangfu used military pay to speculate on snow lotus and lost hundreds of thousands of silver. The person responsible for transferring grain to Xingqing was also Li Zhizhong's protégé - Jiang Chengbang, the deputy envoy of the third division branch. I don't believe there is anything wrong with it.
!”
Yeli Huaide said happily: "If we can get the documentary evidence of the handover of military pay, food and fodder, the two thieves from the Li family will have to go around without food!" After thinking about it, he said: "What if there is still no one? I remember breaking out of the encirclement that year.
At that time, flames shot into the sky in the direction of the camp..."
Cheng An smiled and said, "Do you know where Director Zhao will serve next?"
"where?"
"Hongyuan, as the abbot of Baima Taoist Temple, is in charge of the three tribes of Baima! In the Yamen, the young marquis and the Li family have deducted food and salary, so the army of Baima Mountain has disturbed the place very fiercely. I think this is the main reason for the rebellion of the three tribes of Baima!"
Gao Yanei clapped his hands and praised: "Wonderful! As expected of the Chengdong family! The Chengdong family and Daozhang Zhao have even become friends, so why should the Chengdong family tell Daozhang Zhao? If Daozhang Zhao has any conditions, you can put them forward and we will do our best to satisfy them!"
Cheng An shook his head: "It's hard for me to say."
Gao Yanei asked: "Isn't the Chengdong family a close friend of Daochang Zhao? It's hard for you to speak, and who can persuade Daochang Zhao?"
Cheng An smiled bitterly and said: "I am now in a place of suspicion. Tianlongyuan is watching me very closely. You have all seen it in the past few days. Mingjue and Xingzhen are always around Daozhang Zhao. How can I have a chance to talk to him alone?" This matter? Although Mingjue and Xingzhen usually have some bad relations with me, this matter is too important. If I really do anything strange, it will definitely make things difficult for them. So I have to find a way to pass this on. , find an opportunity to ask Taoist Master Zhao alone."
Gao Yanei and Yeli Huaide both nodded and thought about it as they walked.
Not long after, the three of them arrived at the residence of the abbot, Master Long Yang. After meeting Zhao Ran, there was a lot of excitement again.
With Cheng An's reminder, the two men's attitude towards Zhao Ran today was different from last time at the Jinbo Club, and they were more eager to make friends deliberately.
After staying in Longyang's small courtyard for a long time, everyone accompanied Zhao Ran to Tianma Pharmaceutical Factory, which is also on Cuiming Mountain.
Tianma Pharmaceutical Factory is also located on the hillside of Cuiming Mountain, adjacent to Tianmatai Temple. There is only a grassland of tens of feet wide in between. The reason why Zhao Ran came to visit this place is because he wanted to directly "Get goods" from Tianma Pharmaceutical Factory.
The prices of Tianma Pharmaceutical's most profitable Zhuangshen Pills and Huodu Pills remained high in Daming, with prices nearly twice as high as in Xingqing. The prices of the two drugs on the market in Xingqing were even higher than Tianma Pharmaceutical's "ex-factory prices." "Higher than half.
Zhao Ran has been trying to set up his own "Junshan Pharmaceutical", but it is not possible yet. Although he has the formulas for two patent medicines, he does not have enough talents to refine two elixirs that can be affordable for ordinary people. There are not just one or two monks needed. There are dozens of monks from Tianmatai Temple and Jialan Temple who devote themselves to it all year round.
As for Zhao Ran, the only one he can use so far is Archmage Guo Zhiwei. As for Rabbit, her ability is still limited to growing medicine. Although Fairy Toad Palace is very interested in refining elixirs, that is a story for another day. Besides, her ability None of my helpers have opened their spiritual intelligence.
Before the establishment of Junshan Pharmaceutical, elixirs could only be imported from Xixia. Zhao Ran planned to keep part of the price difference in his hands. Building Hongyuan would require a lot of money. Therefore, he would get the medicine directly from Tianma Pharmaceutical and then Transferring to Yuanzhou Prefecture is a temporary way to make money.
People were coming and going in Tianma Pharmacy. More than a dozen practicing monks and more than 20 ordinary monks were busy inside. Zhao Ran checked the "Medicine Selection Hall", "Medicine Dispensing Hall", "Medicine Refining Hall" and "Medicine Refining Hall" one by one. They expressed satisfaction with the orderly work of the monks and the clean and tidy environment, and then sat down to discuss the price and quantity of the goods to be picked up every year.
"How many strengthening pills and fire poison pills can your temple refine every year?"
The monk Xuan Tan replied: "No more than 10,000 pills of Zhuangshen Pills are taken every year, and 20,000 pills of Fire Poison Pills are taken every year."
"So how much can you give me each year?"
Xuan Tan thought for a while and said: "Thirty bottles of Strengthening Pills and fifty bottles of Fire Poison Pills."
Thirty bottles and fifty bottles, each bottle has thirty pills, that is nine hundred pills and one thousand five hundred pills. Zhao Ran was not satisfied with this quantity. He knew that Tianma Pharmaceutical had made some adjustments to its output in order to maintain drug prices. There are restrictions, and the actual production capacity is more than this number. There are not that many people in Xixia Middle School who can afford these two medicines. This number is almost just right, but now that three years have passed, it stands to reason that larger channels should be opened up. Tubo, Northern Yuan, Buddhist kingdoms in the Western Regions, and even privately sold to the Ming Dynasty, how could this amount of production be enough?
Zhao Ran shook his head: "It's too little. I need more, at least twice as much."
Xuan Tan was in a dilemma: "It really can't be made."
Zhao Ranqi asked: "Why is this?"
