Text Chapter 042 Deliberately raising the price
CHAPTER XLII
"What do you say? The Tigers were wiped out, who did it? ”
In the Polar Sea Trade Company, Li Yan sat at his desk and asked the female secretary beside him in shock.
The Tiger Gang is the force of the Li family, and everyone knows it, he can't imagine that with the status of the Li family in Nanjiang, there are still people who dare to touch the Li family, either this force is very large, or this force is crazy.
Li Yan is the son of Li Jingkun, the second master of the Li family, and also the chairman of the Polar Sea Trade Company, the leader of the Tiger Gang, Li Yitian, is the son of Li Lu, the housekeeper next to his father, although they are all surnamed Li, but one is a slave, and the other is a master, not the same day, of course, as the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, not to mention that Li Yitian has helped him do things in business and trade.
The forces under his command were wiped out, and Li Yan could be said to be extremely angry.
"It's like... The people of the Qigong Association did it. The female secretary replied in a low voice.
"Qigong Association? Bamboo family? Why did they destroy the LTTE? Don't they know that the LTTE is our Li family? Li Yan looked shocked and asked provocatively.
He never thought that it was the Qigong Association that destroyed his own forces, and he couldn't help but be shocked, if he just killed one Li for a day, he could not care, but he shouldn't have wiped out the entire Tiger Gang, isn't this a slap in the face of the Li family!
"Chairman, this... I really don't know! The female secretary lowered her head and responded with a panicked expression.
"That's it! Go down, I'll take care of it!" Li Yan said impatiently to the female secretary.
I was too anxious just now, so I asked the secretary next to me, the female secretary was not the Li family's eyeliner, what could she know, it can be seen that Li Yan was indeed confused.
"Yes! Chairman! The female secretary gently put the paper in her hand on the table, turned and walked out the door.
"It's so deceitful! Okay, you're a bamboo family, we're not done with this matter! Li Yan threw all the things on the table to the ground and yelled angrily.
If it were placed in other small families, I am afraid that Li Yan would have brought people to take revenge a long time ago, but the Zhu family is different from the small family, although it is not as good as the eight major families economically, but the power is not worse than his Li family at all, or even larger.
Especially the Zhuhong Qigong Association, it can be said that it has gathered all the masters around Nanjiang, which of those masters has no power behind them, if it is really hard, the best result is to lose both, but in any case, this beam is finished...
Qin Ce wandered around the trade for a day, wanting to try his luck to see if he could meet a Dan furnace that could be used for alchemy, but he didn't see the whole trade, so he took a taxi to the Rejuvenation Hall.
By the time he arrived at the Rejuvenation Hall, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard Xiaohui's endless whining.
Boss Qin! Brother Qin! Dear brother! Can you think about it, I'm so busy all day, I don't even have a place to rest at night, and if I continue like this, I will die young sooner or later! Xiao Hui sat on the hospital bed and said to Qin Ce with a resentful face.
It's no wonder that Xiaohui is like this, in the past two days that Qin Ce has been gone, she has been so busy that she has been in a hurry, while sorting out the accounts, she also has to sort out the list of drugs that Qin Ce asked Fat Tiger to buy, and now the second floor of the store is full of medicines, and there is no place to sleep, and she can only make do with it in the hospital bed every day, which makes her extremely depressed.
"I'll help you see that with your body and bones, you can live to at least ninety, and it's hard to die young!" Qin Ce sat at his desk, picked up the list of accounts that Xiao Hui had sorted out, and raised his eyebrows and said to Xiao Hui.
"You ......" Xiao Hui couldn't say anything, and said in his heart that he was still 90 years old, let's dream, either he was tired to death, or he was angry with Qin Ce.
Glancing at Xiao Hui who was pouting and angry, Qin Ce smiled slightly, he really didn't lie about this matter, he helped Xiao Hui check, don't look at her thin figure, but she has a good physique, and living to the age of ninety is the same as playing.
However, Xiao Hui's words did remind Qin Ce that now the Rejuvenation Hall is overcrowded all day long, and the medicines are also piled up, if he enters the medicinal materials again, it is estimated that he will have to go outside the store to see a doctor, but these medicinal materials are his necessities, and he can't help but enter, so he has to think of a way.
Then Qin Ce took the list of medicines and flipped through them carefully, when he saw the price of medicinal materials, Qin Ce frowned, and said that the price of this medicinal materials had risen too fast, and a pound of ordinary wild ginseng actually cost more than 4,800 yuan, which was more than 500 yuan higher than the last purchase, even if it was a stock, it was not as fast as it, the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, he threw the list directly on the table, and then shouted out of the door: "Fat Tiger, come here!" ”
Fat Tiger was squatting on the side of the road with his pony boy smoking a small cigarette, his eyes searched for beautiful women everywhere, after hearing Qin Ce's voice, he was scared of a clever one, and the cigarette butt fell directly on his pants with a shake of his hand, and he picked it up a few times in a panic, got up and walked quickly towards the store.
"Big... Big guy! What's the matter? Looking at Qin Ce's cold face, the fat tiger's frightened soul was lost, and he said in his heart that he had done something to make the big guy so angry, but after going through it in his mind, it was really nothing.
"Let me ask you, why are the medicinal herbs imported this time so expensive compared to the other day?" Qin Ce pointed to the list of medicines on the table and asked Fat Tiger in a cold voice.
"Big guy! The conscience of heaven and earth, who do I dare to lie to you, and I dare not tell you, this time the price is still for me to let my uncle come forward, otherwise it will be much more expensive! Fat Tiger explained aggrievedly.
Of course, Qin Ce knew that the fat tiger didn't dare to get in the way in this matter, but the price increase really made Qin Ce unacceptable, and said that there would be more places to take medicine in the future, and even if he could earn it again, it would not be enough to pay for it, and the reason why he opened this clinic was to earn money to buy medicine and cultivate with peace of mind, and now it seems that this is a bottomless pit that cannot be filled.
"Of course I know you won't lie to me, did you buy this medicine from the herb shop opposite?" Qin Ce asked in a low voice.
"Yes, big guy! The whole business is the most complete in his family's medicinal materials, and I don't know why they suddenly raised the price this time, I also called you when I entered the medicine today, but I didn't get through, and then his boss said that if it wasn't right now, he would sell it to others, so I just..."The more the fat tiger said, the quieter his voice became, and in the end, he lowered his head directly, with a look of guilt.
Originally, he wanted to wait for Qin Ce to come and tell him, but he forgot about it for a while, so now he was also a little panicked in his heart, after all, Qin Ce's thunderous anger was not something he could bear.
"You're doing the right thing!" Qin Ce comforted in a low voice. He did agree with Fat Tiger's decision, if it was him, he would do the same, but the pharmacy owner's approach made Qin Ce a little suspicious that he was deliberately raising the price of medicinal materials, and it was very likely that it was only for the Rejuvenation Hall.
"Big guy! You don't blame me? Seeing that Qin Ce forgave himself, Fat Tiger asked in a low voice.
"I said that what you did was not wrong, of course I don't blame you, and I still have one more thing for you to do!" Qin Ce responded.
"Big guy! Whatever you command! I'll do it for you! Fat Tiger looked up and patted his chest in reassurance.
Qin Ce nodded when he heard this, and then said, "You go and pick up someone for me, just say that I let you go, he's..."
Fat Tiger nodded hurriedly, and then took the two horses out of the store.
After the fat tiger left, Qin Ce glanced at Xiao Hui, who was still sulking, pursed his lips and smiled, and then walked out of the store.
Seeing Qin Ce leave the store, Xiaohui hurriedly got up from the hospital bed and hurriedly walked to the door, when she saw Qin Ce walking towards the opposite medicinal herb shop, she was very puzzled, and said that she was going to take medicine so late?
"Looks like we're going to have to sleep out of the door tonight!" Xiaohui's eyelids rolled upward, and she walked towards the hospital bed with a depressed face...
"Dude, what kind of medicine do you want to buy?" As soon as Qin Ce walked into the pharmacy opposite, a male salesman walked over and asked Qin Ce in a provocative voice.
"I'll take a look!" Qin Ce replied expressionlessly.
After speaking, he ignored the incomprehensible expression of the waiter, and walked towards the booth of the pharmacy alone.
This was the first time Qin Ce had come to this pharmacy since he opened the store, and after wandering around for half a circle, Qin Ce finally stopped in front of a counter, and the male salesman saw this and chased after him quickly.
Under normal circumstances, the pharmacy should close at eight o'clock, but the male salesman came to work on the first day, and in order to make a good impression on the boss, he took the initiative to take on the job of cleaning the pharmacy.
"How much does wild ginseng cost?" After Qin Ce saw the male salesman coming, he pointed to the thumb-thick wild ginseng in the counter and asked.
"This... I haven't remembered it all yet! Why don't you wait and I'll go get the price list? The male salesman said with some embarrassment.
Seeing Qin Ce nodding, the male salesman immediately entered the counter, only to see him rummaging through the counter a few times, and then took out a blue book clip.
"I took a look, and the price list said 4,300 yuan a catty!" After the salesman finished speaking, he showed it to Qin Ce.
After Qin Ce saw the price list, he smiled coldly, sure enough, it was the same as he thought, this boss was really only for the Rejuvenation Hall!
Presumably, there are many patients in the Rejuvenation Hall, thinking that Qin Ce has made a lot of money, so he deliberately raised the price, for those who dare to play with him, Qin Ce naturally wants him to pay a price.
Seeing that Qin Ce didn't speak, the salesman asked tentatively: "Dude, is it too expensive?" ”
Qin Ce was silent when he heard this, and when the salesman saw this, he thought that Qin Ce must have misunderstood himself, and then hurriedly explained: "Dude, don't get me wrong, I don't look down on people, but this thing he sells is indeed more expensive, my hometown, just like that, it's less than 1,000 yuan, so we don't need to buy such an expensive one, if you believe me, I can introduce you to other medicinal materials, which have the same medicinal effect as it, and the price is much more affordable!" ”
"Oh? Do you know medicinal herbs? Hearing what the salesman said, Qin Ce instantly became interested in this salesman.
"I, hehe, I know a little bit of herbal medicine, my family is from Jilin, my grandfather is an old Chinese medicine doctor, these are also learned from my grandfather, for example, this wild ginseng, it ......" The salesman pointed to the herbs on the counter, and introduced them to Qin Ce one by one, the herbal medicine salesman here almost all knew it, and he was also clear about the properties of the medicinal materials, although his understanding of medicinal materials was less than one ten-thousandth of Qin Ce's, but it did make Qin Ce's eyes shine.
After the salesman finished speaking, Qin Ce smiled slightly, and then said to him, "Do you want to follow me?" ”
The salesman was stunned when he heard this, his eyes looked at Qin Ce directly, and said in his heart that you didn't say what you did, just let yourself follow you, this person will not have a problem with his head, although he thought so in his heart, he still refused very tactfully: "Thank you buddy for appreciating, but I did a good job here, and I have a contract with the boss, I can't breach the contract, you better find someone else!" ”
Qin Ce also heard what the salesman meant, glanced at the medicinal herb shop, and said meaningfully: "It's really good here, I like it very much..."
