Chapter 25: The Liu Family's Business

In the hall of the Liu family, everyone was sitting in their own places, but there were already many pairs of eyes glancing at Meng Fan's position, this Li Zixuan, who was in the Gongsun Mansion yesterday and won the Xiao Fei Pavilion with his couplet. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although this Li Zixuan is not as good as the first genius Su Muchen, he is also a well-known talent. lost to Meng Fan, can everyone look at Meng Fan with strange eyes.

Liu Fan, who was unknown, let many people in Lin'an Mansion know his identity overnight, and the fourth young master of the Liu family is also a very talented person.

Meng Fan's performance made the Liu family extremely face-saving, at least, Liu Shiyun was happy all night yesterday. It's just that a few families are happy and a few are sad, at this moment, Liu Shifeng and Liu Shilei are not as relieved as they appear on their faces. The better Meng Fan is, the more capital they have to compete for the head of the Liu family.

And in today's meeting of the Liu family, the most important person is Meng Fan. Because, today is the meeting where Meng Fan accepts the family's business affairs.

"Fan'er, how is your health lately, it's almost good." Uncle Liu Shifeng asked with a concerned face.

Meng Fan hurriedly stood up and said respectfully: "Thank you Uncle for your concern, Fan'er's body is fine." Looking at the smile on Liu Shifeng's face, Meng Fan felt a little helpless. Gotta give him a problem again.

"Fan'er, I heard that you were at Lord Yin's birthday banquet yesterday, but you behaved very well." The old lady smiled rarely, and asked Meng Fan with satisfaction. Although it was an inquiry, the tone was full of affirmation.

"Hehe, it's just that I happened to win that Li Gongzi, I can't do it." Meng Fan scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled shyly.

"Liu Fan, don't be modest, if you win, you win, I saw it clearly when I was there." Liu Rushi stood aside and said in a strange manner. At the same time, he also secretly snickered in his heart, if you dare to offend Li Shaoxuan, then wait for his revenge.

However, Liu Rushi's heart was still worried that he did not humiliate Meng Fan yesterday.

Liu Rujian on the side was also a little curious, this guy who had been fighting with him in the hall before was still a genius? Liu Rushi was a little unconvinced.

"Fan'er, where did you learn these talents, but you have won a big face for our Liu family, look at what kind of face the Li family will have in the future to brag about his son who reads poetry and books in front of my Liu family." Liu Shilei smiled.

The Li family's business is the same as that of the Liu family, both of which deal in medicinal materials, and some competition on weekdays is naturally inevitable. Although the Li family's business is generally slightly weaker than that of the Liu family, Li Shaoxuan, the young master of the Li family, is a student of Xiao Feiguan, and his identity is not ordinary. The distinction between the classes of farmers and industrialists has been like this since ancient times.

"When I was in the mountains, I had nothing to do, recuperating and reading some books. But I have never been to a place like Xiao Fei Pavilion to study. Meng Fan is also very honest, he has indeed never been to a private school or anything like that, he only said that he taught himself in the mountains, so that everyone has no way to verify it.

"Alas, all these years, I have suffered you, child." The old lady said in a somewhat sad tone. "However, now that you have returned to the Liu family and recovered from your illness, you will not have to suffer those hardships in the future."

"Fan'er doesn't feel that she was suffering before, on the contrary, Fan'er is very grateful to Master, if he hadn't brought me to the mountains to raise me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to concentrate on studying." Meng Fan smiled and said.

"Fan'er is right, mother, don't be too sad, isn't he back well." Liu Shiyun stood up, looked at the somewhat sad old lady, and persuaded.

The reason why Liu Fan was taken away when he was a child was that the old lady said yes at that time.

"Yes, Mother, don't be upset. Now that Liu Fan's injuries have healed, it is time for him to become a real member of the Liu family and contribute to the Liu family. Liu Shifeng glanced at Meng Fan, who bowed his head slightly, and said.

Meng Fan didn't have time to react, but Liu Shiyun's face was happy, and he looked at Liu Shifeng: "Big brother, did you promise to let Fan'er start taking care of the family's shop?" ”

Born in a business, the family's property is a representative of status, and the property is a person's ability to gain the respect of everyone according to his contribution to the family.

If you are not even qualified to take care of the family business, you will not be able to be valued and recognized by everyone after all. He hoped that Meng Fan would contact the Liu family's business, but Liu Shiyun didn't expect that the eldest brother would decide to let Meng Fan start to contact the family business so quickly.

"Shiyun, this is a question that the eldest brother was thinking about a few days ago, but because of Fan'er's body, he hasn't spoken. Now that his body has recovered, it is natural that it is time to contribute to the family. Liu Shifeng said.

Meng Fan was a little curious, according to what he knew about the Liu family before, his appearance should be very unpopular, let alone let him take care of the business, wouldn't this give him an opportunity to enhance the prestige of the family.

Don't they care about the position of head of the house? Meng Fan's face was confused.

"Then I don't know where the eldest brother thinks it is suitable to start learning." Liu Shiyun glanced at Meng Fan and asked casually.

"If Fan'er is still young, it is natural to let him start learning step by step as an apprentice. My Liu family is mainly based on herbal medicine, so naturally I should start with the basics. Liu Shifeng opened his mouth to speak, but Liu Shiyun's expression changed, even the old lady frowned slightly, but this process was a little time-consuming.

The grandchildren of the Liu family began to come into contact with various herbs at the age of ten, and until now, it cannot be said how proficient they are in herbs. If Meng Fan is allowed to learn for such a long time, he can't wait.

However, Liu Shifeng didn't finish his words, just paused slightly, and continued: "But Fan'er is old, and it is impossible to start as an apprentice. In addition, Fan'er is very smart, I think that with his ability, he may be able to run a shop alone, and it is not impossible. ”

"What !!"

Liu Shifeng's seemingly calm tone, but like a violent wind, the entire hall was shocked, and suddenly, there was a kind of turbulence.

Especially the juniors in the family, their eyes are full of jealousy. How could Liu Fan He De have such ability, several of them have been working in the Liu family pharmacy, but no one is qualified to take care of a shop alone. Why, as soon as Liu Fan comes back, he can have such privileges.

"Big brother, isn't this a little inappropriate?" Even Liu Shiyun felt that it was a little hard to believe what he heard, he originally thought that it would be good to let Meng Fan follow him to learn more experience, but he didn't expect the eldest brother to give his son such a high step.

"What's wrong, don't you believe in Fan'er's ability?" Liu Shifeng didn't give Liu Shiyun a chance to refute.

The old lady who had not spoken on the side said loudly at this time: "Shifeng, which store do you think Fan'er is suitable for?" The old lady's words suddenly made Liu Shiyun prick up his ears, Jiang is still old and spicy, and the key to the problem in one sentence.

"That's what the mother and the child think. Let Fan'er learn to take care of a store first, see his ability, and pass this test, so as to know Fan'er's real ability and where he is suitable. Liu Shifeng said respectfully.

"Well, that's a good idea. Fan'er, what do you think? The old lady of the Liu family looked at Meng Fan and asked.

Is this what made me a leader in the first place? Meng Fan was a little excited, of course, he didn't show any joy on the surface, and said: "It's all up to grandmother and uncle." ”

Liu Shiyun looked at the old lady and then at the eldest brother, and asked, "Then I don't know which store the eldest brother thinks is suitable for Fan'er to manage." ”

Liu Shifeng paced a few steps slowly, thought for a while, and then stood still: "After all, Fan'er is the first time to contact the family's industry, if he is given a prosperous and profitable store, not only will Fan'er's ability not be reflected, but I am also worried that something will go wrong." In my opinion, it is better to let Meng Fan take charge of the shop on Menli Street, there will be no big mistakes, and maybe the shop there can be erected again. ”

As soon as Liu Shifeng's words were finished, the few people who were still jealous of Meng Fan suddenly had a secret joy in their hearts, revealing a hint of schadenfreude. Liu Fan, you just go and carry this burden.

The Liu family does have a pharmacy on Menli Street, but the business is very sluggish, in one sentence, that is: the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon it!

Liu Shiyun's face was a little ugly, but the old lady didn't speak, and he couldn't say anything.

"The storefronts of Menli Street are not as good as other shops, they are neither in a densely populated place, nor are they located in a prosperous place, the shops on Menli Street are not large, and the location is not good. Meng Fan, what do you think? The old lady began to ask Meng Fan.

If it weren't for the fact that there was only one shop in the vicinity of Menli Street, it would be a pity to throw it away, and the Liu family would have given up on the pharmacy long ago. Liu Shiyun has been running a pharmacy for so many years, so he naturally knows the situation there, and hurriedly glances at Meng Fan, making him refuse this errand.

Thinking slightly, Meng Fan pursed his lips and smiled, took two steps forward, but said, "Since this is the case, then Fan'er will take over this pharmacy." It's just that if it's not managed properly, please don't blame your grandmother. ”

The moment under Meng Fan's head, a smile appeared from the corner of his mouth.
