Chapter 15: The Big Organization
At the gate of the Guo family's courtyard, it was guarded by Yu Yufeng and the guards.
Notices were posted in three places in the city to recruit guards, requiring that they must be between the ages of eighteen and thirty, with good physical fitness and a certain foundation in martial arts, and one or two or five yuan of silver per month.
Since yesterday, people have come to apply for jobs one after another, and Yu Yufeng will conduct an assessment on the spot.
As for the content of the assessment, it includes not only strength, speed, but also actual fighting ability.
Most of the applicants who came to apply were mediocre, some could barely pass the test, and those who did not meet the requirements were eliminated on the spot.
Before you know it, another three days have passed.
During these three days, more and more products are sold in foreign stores, many modern packaged foods are sold in stores, and among women's products, makeup and cosmetic utensils have been put on the shelves.
Whether it is a foreign goods store or a medical center, the business is getting better and better, and the popularity is getting higher and higher.
On this morning, two special people came to the hospital, Li Yuanwai and his eldest son, who came to seek medical treatment last time.
After coming to the medical hall, Li Yuanwai directly said that he wanted to find the young master of the Guo family, and someone quickly reported it.
Guo Wendong came to the medical hall, and when he saw Li Yuanwai for the second time, the other party was refreshed.
Seeing the eldest son next to him again, his complexion was much better, and he was not as thin as last time, standing steadily alone.
It is clear that ten days ago he was sold the Grenin drug, and it has worked.
Li Yuan was grateful, hugged his fists and shook Guo Wendong deeply, and said: "Guo Gongzi, your Glenin is really effective, and the dog has been taking medicine for ten days, and he has been much better." My surname is Li, and his name is Changsheng; The dog's name is Fuyun, thank you Guo Gongzi. ”
Li Fuyun also bowed to Guo Wendong and said gratefully: "Thank you Guo Gongzi for saving your life." ”
Although life-saving medicine is very expensive, only Guo Wendong has life-saving medicine in the world, otherwise it is useless even if he has more money.
Guo Wendong returned the salute and said in a humble tone: "It is the duty to open a medical hall to practice medicine, and it is the duty to save the dead and help the wounded, so that the son was saved, Guo is very pleased." ”
Anyone who has seen the world knows that this is just a polite word.
However, Guo Wendong was really pleased, which proved to the outside world that Glenin could save the disease, and he was naturally happy to have a steady stream of profits in the future. There is a whole container of Glenin in the space warehouse, which can meet the needs of the market in this time and space for a long time.
Li Changsheng sighed: "It's a pity, Glenin can't cure the hemorrhage, he can only continue his life." ”
Guo Wendong said: "Hemorrhage is an incurable disease, and it is very remarkable to be able to make drugs to control the disease. ”
Li Fuyun asked, "Guo Gongzi, is there still Glenin?" ”
He was worried that if he stopped taking medicine in the future, even if the family had more money, he would only die.
Guo Wendong said: "Li Gongzi, please rest assured, Glenin will always have it." ”
Li Changsheng has been in business for many years, and has a high reputation in the Jiangnan area, for Guo Wendong, he invited the two of them to enter the small room of the medical hall, which is specially used to entertain distinguished guests, and Xing'er came over in time to make tea.
The tea is the best tea, and it is a high-grade West Lake Longjing brought out of the warehouse.
The two sides talked and got to know each other.
Li Changsheng is in the ceramic business, three generations of business, the business is very big, there are many ceramic workshops and ceramic shops in the country, among which the Jiangnan region is the richest, is the focus of the business.
From the conversation, it was learned that Li Changsheng was inextricably linked with the officials of the imperial court and was relatively close to the Donglin Party.
The Donglin Party is the spokesperson of the Jiangnan landlord and businessman interest group through and through. Guo Wendong estimated that there must be many people in the DPRK and China who took advantage of Li Changsheng.
In addition to Western medicines, Li Changsheng naturally heard of the foreign goods store opposite the medical hall, and as a businessman, he was very curious about the source of the goods, and made tentative inquiries.
Guo Wendong said euphemistically: "Li Yuanwai, it is inconvenient to give advice in this regard, I hope you will forgive me!" ”
Li Changsheng, who has been in the mall for a long time, is naturally eye-catching and no longer asks.
After talking for a while, Guo Wendong introduced the goods in the foreign goods store to him, Li Changsheng was very interested, and Guo Wendong personally took him to the opposite store.
The same modern items opened Li Changsheng's eyes.
He also became interested in the watch, and wanted to buy it on the spot, Guo Wendong said that if you want to buy, please come to the bid on the 25th.
Li Changsheng said that he would definitely come at that time.
This time, he brought plenty of silver. In the end, he spent 15,000 taels on foreign goods, and another 12,000 taels for 60 Glenin pills (equivalent to two bottles, two months' supply).
After today's dinner, the big courtyard was brightly lit, and the maids, housekeepers, servants, and medical staff all gathered here, and Guo Wendong personally paid his salary.
The happiest thing is the nursing home, Yu Yufeng was promoted to 4 taels of silver, and the other nursing homes also increased by 50%, which made the rest of the people very red. After a few days of recruitment, the number of nurses has increased to eight, and the new ones will not receive their money until next month.
Next to Guo Wendong, there were three boxes, two containing broken silver and copper coins, and one large box containing rice.
This is one of his reforms, and in the future, as long as there are no special circumstances, he will generally pay his salary in person, so that the people below will remember him more.
"The guard's silver has risen by 50%, I will not favor one over the other, starting this month, others have also risen by 50%."
All the staff cheered, and shouted in their hearts that the young master was a good person.
Then the salary is paid, and those who read the name come forward to receive it, and they can freely choose to receive broken silver or copper coins.
In addition to receiving money, each person also received 10 catties of Thai fragrant rice for free, and each of his subordinates was a fart.
At present, the treatment of the personnel of the Guo Mansion is the best among the wealthy families of the Ming Dynasty.
Guojia Medical Museum has miraculous medicines, as well as drugs that can treat terminal diseases, and foreign goods stores have all kinds of strange things, one to ten, ten to hundred, and soon spread all over Nanjing, and then to the entire Jiangnan.
On the 23rd, Hou Fangyu came.
"Wendong, five days later, I will have a party with Bijiang, Dingsheng, and Miyi, and many people in the Fushe will also participate, just in Xiangjun's Meixianglou, at that time, Xiangjun will perform for everyone, I hope you will participate together."
In the past, this Guo Wendong himself had dealings with the four sons of the late Ming Dynasty, especially Hou Fangyu.
After the Qing soldiers went south in 1645, most of the people of the Fushe actively participated in the resistance to the Qing Dynasty, and many heroic and unyielding heroes emerged.
Guo Wendong felt that the resumption of the society was a force that could be fought for or united. In addition, in addition to making money in business, he also has to have his own social network, and it is not a bad thing to know more people.
Since Hou Fangyu invited, Guo Wendong agreed on the spot, and by the way, he saw the demeanor of Qinhuai Bayan on the bank of the Qinhuai River.
