Su Binglan said, "I understand. I'll visit Yang County later and check it out for myself. If possible, I'll build a factory there and buy their medicinal herbs. Of course, I'll offer them fair prices."
She knew the merchants did not have to worry about herbs because the villagers had plenty of them. Therefore, the merchants could even pay a lower price by purchasing the herbs in bundles.
The merchants could then sell the herbs to medical centers and earn money for themselves, while the villagers barely earned anything. However, the villagers could not change the situation in their favor.
After all, they could not sell their herbs in medical centers directly because the village roads were hard to traverse.
Su Wenxiu sighed and said, "The medical centers in Yang County cooperate with the merchants. That's another reason why the villagers won't earn much even if they sell their herbs to the medical centers directly.
