It was only in the evening that the group finally had time to sit and talk. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"How could the lady come to Yizhou Road so soon?" Uncle Luo's face was full of excitement, and there were faint tears in his eyes when he looked at Mu Jin, "The lady received the letter I wrote to you?"

Mu Jin shook his head, "I left Jinling at the end of the month, and I never received a letter from Uncle Luo. ”

Uncle Luo thinks about it, he is an ordinary person, and the letters he writes naturally can't take a special post road like the express of the imperial court, and his letters are transferred to Jinling, which is estimated to take a month and a half.

Mu Jin left Jinling at the end of the month, so naturally he couldn't receive his letters.

"The lady left Jinling at the end of the month, why did she only arrive in Chengdu Mansion a few days ago?" Uncle Luo was surprised when he thought about it.

Mu Jin smiled and said, "I played on the road for a few more days." ”

Uncle Luo smiled, thinking of her and Holly's little girl's temperament, and then thinking about the strangers around before, although they were strange, but their eyes when they looked at the lady were loyal, I think they were all saved by the lady along the way, right?

"Tell me about the situation in Chengdu Mansion, Uncle Luo is okay these days?"

The smile on Uncle Luo's face narrowed slightly, and he sighed deeply, "I am ashamed to entrust my mother, and I haven't opened Xinglintang in Chengdu Mansion until now." ”

After Uncle Luo came to Chengdu Mansion, he asked someone to buy a big house with three entrances on Jinjiang Street, with a shop in front and a yard in the back.

Jinjiang Street is the most prosperous street in Chengdu Prefecture, and there are all kinds of shops on both sides of the street, so the layout of the front store and the back yard is naturally more expensive, and it will naturally attract the attention of many people when someone suddenly buys it.

There are many people who ask Uncle Luo what kind of business they want to buy such a shop.

Fortunately, Uncle Luo also has many years of experience in managing a medical center, and when he heard someone ask, he kept an eye on it, and did not specifically say what business he did, but only vaguely said that the owner had not yet thought about it, and it was okay to be a medical hall or a teahouse.

As soon as he heard him say that he might open a medical hall or a teahouse, things were a little unsmooth, and Uncle Luo felt that he was secretly inquiring about himself, and even more people were following him.

Even when he went to the yamen to go through the formalities for the transfer of ownership, the officials were procrastinating and were reluctant to handle it for him.

Uncle Luo stuffed some money in the past, and invited the little official to have a meal, and the little official hinted to him that buying a shop is a good thing, but you must keep your eyes open when you do any business, if you choose the wrong way, not only will you not make money, but you will also lose money if you don't do it well.

Uncle Luo knew that the matter was not simple, so he did not rush to open Xinglin Hall, but concentrated on living in the courtyard behind the shop, and carefully inquired about the situation in Chengdu Mansion.

"Although there are many medical centers in Chengdu Prefecture, after careful consideration, I found that most of them are Heshuntang, which is the largest medical hall in Chengdu Prefecture and the best medical hall. ”

"A few other medical centers are not big, and they have all had problems, either the medicinal materials are incomplete, they can't cure the disease, or they have killed people, and gradually many medical centers have closed their doors, leaving alone and Shuntang to sit big. ”

Uncle Luo's face was a little solemn, and he lowered his voice and said, "I have checked carefully, the surname of the owner behind the scenes of Heshuntang is Huang, and it should be the Huang family in the southwest." ”

To his surprise, Mu Jin's expression was very calm, "Well, I know." ”

When passing by Shi Nan Mansion, they met the seventh master of the Huang family, and at that time, they heard Song Yanzhao probably mention the matter of the southwest Huangshan and the Huang family.

Uncle Luo was a little surprised, thinking that she didn't know the status of the Huang family, "Does the lady know who this southwest Huangshan is?"

Mu Jinwaner, "Uncle Luo, I know. ”

Uncle Luo was stunned and a little ashamed, "I didn't expect that the lady had only been here for a few days, and many things had already been seen clearly." ”

Mu Jin browled his eyebrows, "It's just a coincidence." ”

Uncle Luo continued: "Knowing that behind Heshuntang is the Southwest Hou Huang family, I didn't dare to act easily, for fear of attracting their attention, so I wanted to make some preparations secretly, buy more herbs, and wait for the lady to come and discuss the opening." ”

Uncle Luo's face became even more solemn as he spoke, "I discovered another amazing thing in this purchase of medicinal materials. ”

The ancestor of the Huang family in the southwest started as a merchant of medicinal materials, mainly concocting and selling medicinal materials.

"Rao is up to now, more than sixty percent of the medicinal materials in Chengdu Mansion are also sold by the Huang family, they have a large number of medicinal fields, purchase a large number of medicinal materials, and sell them to places outside Yizhou Road. ”

Mu Jin's brows furrowed slightly, "You mean to say that the Huang family has almost monopolized all the medicinal herb business?"

Uncle Luo nodded, "That's pretty much what it means, and that's why other medical halls can't do it, because their medicinal materials are incomplete." ”

The smile on Mu Jin's face gradually faded, and when he passed by Shi Nanfu, looking at Huang Qi's performance and the situation of Heshuntang's dominance, he faintly guessed the Huang family's power in the pharmaceutical industry, but he didn't expect the Huang family to be so dominant.

"Therefore, to open Xinglin Hall, not only must there be forces to compete with the Huang family, but also have enough supply of medicinal materials. She summed up indifferently, but said the root of the problem in one sentence.

Uncle Luo glanced at her appreciatively and nodded.

The Huang family almost monopolized the medicinal materials on Yizhou Road, and if there was a medical center against Heshuntang, as long as they cut off their supply of medicinal materials, it would be equivalent to drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle and cutting off the back road of the medical hall.

"I don't believe Uncle Luo didn't prepare anything, tell me, what did Uncle Luo do later?" Mu Jin suddenly tilted his head and looked at Uncle Luo with a light smile.

Uncle Luo has been taking care of Xinglin Hall in Jinling City for nearly ten years, and Xinglin Hall, a little-known small medical hall in Jinling, can survive ten years without falling, Uncle Luo played a key role, after all, Mu Jin was just making some pills and putting them in Xinglin Hall at that time, and Uncle Luo was taking care of other things.

Uncle Luo's beard curled, "I really can't hide anything from my lady." ”

Mu Jin blinked at him with a pair of bright apricot eyes.

Uncle Luo stroked his beard with a smile, "I spent all the money that my lady gave me, and I bought all the medicine fields." ”

Yao Tian, Mu Jin blinked, and then his eyes were full of smiles.

"Uncle Luo is smart!"

If you want to open Xinglin Hall, you must have your own medicine field, so that you will not have worries.

"It just so happens that Uncle Shi is good at serving the medicine field, and when the free clinic is over, let's go to the medicine field together. ”

Uncle Luo was overjoyed, "That's really good, although I have bought a lot of medicinal fields, I am really not good at serving." ”

The more the master and servant talked, the happier they became, from the opening of Xinglin Hall to the three-day free clinic, Uncle Luo suddenly had a touch of melancholy.

"The lady's free clinic this time has become famous in Chengdu Mansion, I'm afraid it has already attracted the attention of that and Shuntang, otherwise, forget it tomorrow, anyway, it's been two days of free clinic, and it's enough. ”

Uncle Luo is really worried that He Shuntang is staring at them and secretly causing some trouble?

Mu Jin frowned, "How can the three days that I said suddenly change?"
