Chapter 1268: A Chance Encounter with a Medicine Gatherer from West Mountain_1

"Indeed, I'll take them all. Does anyone else in your village sell medicinal materials?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

"We live over by West Mountain. The soil in the village is poor, not much grows there. Most folks rely on the mountain for their livelihood, gathering medicinal herbs to earn a living. Originally, the secretary before County Magistrate Ma often came to buy our goods, and we sold our herbs to him too. But recently, he suddenly stopped showing up, and many families in the village are running out of food to put in their pots," the tall man said in haste, cutting in.

Bai Ruozhu smiled at Jiang Yichun. It seemed they had really stumbled upon a situation.

"You don't need to wait for him anymore. Ma Jun has been dismissed for embezzling your taxes, and the person who collected taxes from you won't be coming anymore," Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.
