Chapter 55 Medicinal Planting

As more and more people become accustomed to taking medicinal decoctions when they are sick, the amount of medicinal materials used is increasing, and the supply of medicinal materials in drug stores is stretched.

What follows is an increase in the price of medicinal materials. The current increase is not obvious, but if it is not resolved, one day it will rise to a point where ordinary people cannot afford it.

In Lingwu Continent, medicinal materials are grown naturally. Due to the spiritual energy, there is no shortage of ordinary medicinal materials in the mountains.

However, the deep mountains and old forests are full of uncertain crises, sudden appearance of wild beasts, and bad weather, which may kill the herbal collectors.

If they can't survive, no one is willing to risk their lives to go into the mountains to collect medicine. Money is not that important compared to life.

As the demand for medicinal materials increases and the prices of medicinal materials rise, more people join the team of medicinal collectors, but it is still a drop in the bucket and does not help.

Many unscrupulous businessmen in the imperial capital saw the benefits and hoarded goods, further accelerating the price of medicinal materials.

Chi Tianmin also had a headache about this. He was not proficient in business and could not find a suitable solution for a while.

This day is another day off for Chi Tianmin. Now every day off, he comes to Xiaoyu Village to visit Lei Mu.

Now is the harvest season, and the villagers are running around in the fields pushing the millet cutter he invented.

Looking at the golden corn in the field, Chi Tianmin sighed, it would be great if medicinal materials could be grown in large areas like food.

Medicinal materials? Planting? Chi Tianmin had another flash of inspiration, yes, isn't medicinal material just a special kind of plant? Why can't it be planted?

In the previous life, there were not so many wild medicinal materials. Most of them were cultivated artificially. Although the medicinal effects were not as good as those of the wild ones, they were not much different.

Chi Tianmin is familiar with the growth environment of various medicines. As long as they are carefully taken care of, medicinal materials can grow like food.

I have to say that although God did not give Chi Tianmin a good talent for cultivation, it did give him a smart mind.

Grain production is a big deal, and Chi Tianmin didn't dare to use the villagers' land for experiments. It happened that no one was planting on Lei Zhenyu's land, so he decided to conduct experiments here.

He selected the drugs that were currently in greatest demand and suitable for planting in an environment like Xiaoyu Village, and then planted these drugs according to the conditions recorded in the book.

Then he asked Lei Zhenyu to spend some time every day taking care of these medicines.

Lei Zhenyu is also a good hand at farm work. He knows the habits of crops very well, and it is natural to take care of medicines.

From then on, every time Chi Tianmin came to Xiaoyu Village, he would come to see the medicine he planted.

At first, he was worried that medicinal materials in Lingwu Continent would not be able to be grown, but when he saw young shoots sprouting from the land, he understood that this method was feasible.

Watching the drug grow day by day, he felt filled with a sense of accomplishment. He was truly worthy of being a time traveler, and all problems could be solved easily.

The growth cycles of different drugs are not the same. After three months, the drug with the shortest growth cycle matures.

Chi Tianmin was filled with pride when he looked at the sheets of medicine in front of him. This was much more convenient than going to the mountains to collect medicine.

Chi Tianmin couldn't wait to pick some medicinal materials. After testing the properties of the medicinal materials, he found that they were no different from the medicinal materials picked in the mountains. Chi Tianmin was completely relieved.

With Lei Zhenyu's land as verification, Chi Tianmin gained confidence, and he summoned all the villagers in Xiaoyu Village.

He wanted all of them to give up farming and plant medicinal materials instead. The income from medicinal materials would be much higher than that from food.

If someone told them to grow inedible medicinal herbs instead of food, the villagers would beat that person to death.

But the person who said this was Young Master Min, and the villagers all agreed immediately without even hesitating.

This is the consensus of the villagers that if they follow Young Master Min, they will not suffer any loss. Not to mention planting medicinal materials, if Young Master Min asks them to plant all grass, they will do it.

In this way, Xiaoyu Village started the cultivation of medicinal materials in full swing.

The villagers are all good at growing crops, and planting medicinal materials is not difficult for them. Chi Tianmin was very happy when he saw the patches of medicinal materials being planted.

Nowadays, Xiaoyu Village is a bellwether for many villages. Xiaoyu Village is lucky and has been favored by young masters. They are the first to enjoy good things.

Many villages are paying attention to the developments in Xiaoyu Village. When they learn that none of them grow food but medicinal materials, outsiders are still shocked.

In the hearts of farmers, food is the most important thing. If they don’t grow food, what will they eat?

After all, the people in other villages didn't trust Chi Tianmin blindly, and they didn't dare to take risks.

Only some brave and wise villagers believed that Master Min would not cheat them and followed the planting of medicinal materials.

A few months later, the first batch of medicinal materials matured, and the villagers enjoyed the joy of the harvest.

At the current price of medicinal materials, just this wave of income can be equal to their total income for the whole year.

As a large number of medicinal materials enter the market, the high prices of medicinal materials have gradually decreased, and people can easily afford medical treatment.

Although the price of medicinal materials has dropped, the cost of growing medicinal materials is not high, and Xiaoyu Village is still making a lot of money.

Sure enough, they were right to follow Young Master Min. Now everyone in Xiaoyu Village was considered rich, which also strengthened their determination to follow in Chi Tianmin's footsteps.

By the way, Chi Tianmin's medicinal shop also made a lot of money. Herbal medicines in Xiaoyu Village were all sold through Min Shao's medicinal shop.

Sure enough, the pharmaceutical business is the most profitable industry anywhere. This industry is much more profitable than a craftsmanship shop.

Driven by profit, many nobles in the imperial capital also saw the huge profits in this.

They all asked the farms under their rule to grow medicinal materials, hoping to get a piece of the pie.

However, in the imperial capital, Min Shao's reputation has been completely established. Most of the people who seek medical treatment and buy medicine are poor farmers. They choose Min Shao's medicine shop, and other stores are not available.

There was no market for the medicinal materials, and eventually the nobles had to give up the business, leaving Chi Tianmin's family alone.

Chi Tianmin did these things for the good of the people, and the medical treatment he gave them, due to a combination of circumstances, actually created a huge industry and continued to expand.

Maybe this is the good news for good people, and unintentional willows and willows will make a shadow.

Chi Tianmin did all this quietly, but the villagers in Xiaoyu Village would not agree to his selfless dedication.

They want to publicize all the things that Young Master Min has done for the people. Now that Young Master Min is one of their own, the good deeds done by their own people must not be known to the world?

As a result, Chi Tianmin's deeds quickly spread throughout the imperial capital.

Young Master Min, the second young master of the Hou Mansion, is a noble man but not arrogant. He devotes himself to the people of the world.

First, there were magical tools such as harvesters and millet removers to help farmers in their agricultural production and provide them with adequate food and clothing. Later, they taught them how to use decoctions and medicines to relieve farmers' illnesses.

In order to solve the problem of medicinal materials, we created a method of growing medicinal materials, so that the diagnosis and treatment of decoction can last for a long time.

Such virtuous actions are comparable to those of the saints of ancient times, including Mr. Yuan and Yao Lao of our time. Farmers all over the world should remember their kindness.
