Chapter 384: Everyone's Eye
Bai Dashan: "To my aunt, there are two drug dealers, but the prices they offered are seven or eight times more expensive than the usual market price, so I refused."

Although he refused, Bai Dashan still decided to report the matter to his aunt.

"Well, you did a good job." The price increased seven or eight times. Did they really treat her as a sucker?

Although there are people who take advantage of opportunities to make money in every world, Bai Tao is so stingy that she will never give these people a chance.

Bai Dashan nodded, but still a little worried: "Auntie, are the herbs we have stored enough?"

We don’t know when the epidemic will end. If there is a shortage of medicinal materials, the epidemic will be out of control.

Bai Tao: "Don't worry, there's enough."

She has quite a few in her mall warehouse, plus the ones in Taohua Village’s warehouse, and now she will arrange some people to go up the mountain to collect herbs, so there is no shortage of medicinal materials.

Of course, among the dozen or so kinds of medicine that people were assigned to collect, only three or four are used in the current prescriptions for treating diseases and epidemics. As for the others, Bai Tao simply collected them and then sold them to the mall.

Hearing this, Bai Dashan looked much more relaxed: "That's good, that's good."

He said angrily again: "Auntie, these drug dealers are so abominable, aren't they making money from disasters?!"

Fortunately, my aunt had collected a lot of medicinal materials before, but even so, these drug dealers took the opportunity to raise the prices of medicinal materials, which is really hateful.

According to Bai Dashan, if you encounter such a situation, just kill it directly without spending a penny on medicinal herbs.

Of course, this was not what he had in mind.

In epidemic areas, when the government encounters people who take the opportunity to raise the prices of medicine and food without caring about the lives of the people, this will not only not arouse public anger, but will also win the applause of the people.

These drug dealers dare to do this in Junji Town simply because they think Junji Town is a lawless area.

"Not surprising!" Bai Tao took a sip of peach juice, turned her eyes and said with a smile.

"Tell them that I, Bai Tao, am stingy. The Baijiabao Caravan is only willing to give them a price two cents higher than usual. If they are willing, then they can sell it. If not, forget it."

When Bai Dashan heard this, he immediately frowned and said in disapproval: "Auntie, you can't say that about yourself."

"Aunt, you are the best aunt."

What's the difference between being stingy and not being stingy?

Their aunt is the best and most powerful person, she is not stingy at all.

If I were stingy, how could I give everyone so many good things?
If I were stingy, would they be able to have such a good life now?

Let’s not talk about anything else, just say that the disease is spreading now. Other places either seal the city gates or drive away the victims, but only I can arrange people to treat these infected victims.

The rice we eat, the medicinal soup we drink, the quicklime for disinfection, the disinfectant, the protective clothing, etc., all of these cost money.

Although some wealthy people in Junji Town also donated supplies, if I hadn't taken the lead, who would care about the lives of these people?

Bai Dashan also understood that those people who donated supplies to Junji Town did so out of respect for the Baijiabao caravan and wanted to gain their favor.

This made Bai Dashan feel emotional, and at the same time he understood more deeply what his aunt had said at the time.

'When you have strength, you will find that there are good people around you, and everyone will be polite to you and greet you with a smile.'

Are these people inherently kind and gentle? No, their kindness and gentleness are nothing more than admiration for strength and temporary submission.

"You have a filter for me, your aunt."

Bai Dashan knew what the natural filter meant, and he immediately shook his head, his face extremely serious, and said solemnly: "It's not a filter."

"Auntie, you are not stingy at all. You are the best person." As if he was afraid that Bai Tao would not believe him, he immediately said, "Auntie, if you don't believe me, you can go outside and listen to what people outside are saying."

"But we have to wait until this period of time passes and the epidemic is over."

Bai Dashan wondered if he should ask each resettlement site to get some books for ten thousand people, so that I could know what everyone was thinking.

"Okay, okay." Bai Tao narrowed her peach blossom eyes and said, "Hehe, actually I think I'm pretty good too."

She thought to herself, I just admitted that I’m stingy, I didn’t say I’m a bad person.

Bai Dashan nodded in agreement: "Yes, auntie, there is no better auntie than you."

The rejected drug dealer was not anxious at first, but instead felt that the Baijiabao caravan was taking advantage of him.

The next day, when he heard that the price was only two cents more per pound than usual, he sneered and laughed at her.

"Oh, the Baijiabao Caravan really takes itself too seriously. In this situation, two cents? Are they giving alms to beggars?!"

"Does the Baijiabao Caravan still not understand the situation? The price is just this now, but it won't be this price in a while."

Some grain and oil stores had their sources of income cut off by the Baijiabao caravan, and had been feeling resentful in recent days. After hearing the news, they also started to make sarcastic remarks.

"Looking at the current situation of the Baijiabao caravan, I don't believe they will not be short of food and medicine. It depends on how long they can hold out."

"that is!"

It’s okay if you don’t want to get rich, but if you prevent others from getting rich, you will naturally become a thorn in everyone’s eyes.

It's only because the Baijiabao caravan is strong, otherwise it would have been attacked by everyone long ago.

"I'm going to make this clear today. This is the price of the herbs I have. I won't pay a penny less."

"That's right, we'll keep the price stable, and then they'll be the only ones who'll be anxious."

"Only the Baijiabao Caravan is big and powerful enough to withstand such a torment. Their so-called powerful lady..."

As soon as the speaker said this, he was quickly pulled back by someone else, and he quickly swallowed the rest of his words.

This man's face turned pale, and he kept bowing to the people at the same table: "Fan said something wrong, I hope everyone can forgive me."

As expected, drinking too much can easily lead to mistakes. The young master of the Baijiabao caravan cannot say anything. If someone gets the word that he is disrespectful to him, he will be in trouble.

The people sitting at the same table also nodded to show their understanding. Naturally, they would not tell anyone else, otherwise, everyone sitting at the same table would be in trouble.

The drug dealers and grain merchants who gathered together quickly changed the topic and everyone stopped talking about the Baijiabao caravan.

However, these drug dealers are destined to be disappointed.

After three or five days, they calculated the time and were not in a hurry. Instead, they were extremely happy.

After all, the longer the time goes, the greater the possibility that the medicinal materials previously stored by the Baijiabao caravan will run out, and the higher the possibility of medicine shortage.

As for the fact that the Baijiabao caravan sent people to collect herbs, the medicine dealers didn't take it seriously at all. Some medicines needed to be prepared before they could be used, and there was no way they would be in short supply once they were collected.

Another three or four days passed, and some drug dealers had already started to inform each other. The Baijiabao caravan came to ask about the price, and the price was higher than before.

However, after the drug dealers had discussed everything, a few days passed, but no one from the Baijiabao caravan arrived.

See you tomorrow, my little cuties~~~
