Chapter 286: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
The white snake happily practiced, and the outside was also in full swing, in order to expand the area of the medicine shop, the project of demolishing the wall and building the house was huge.
"Master, ten days is a bit tight, it's all tight on the side of the pharmacy, and there are still not enough manpower,"
"It must be opened in ten days, I can only stay for another half a month, this prefect took the Hu family's money, I have to let him know that Jimintang is not easy to mess with!"
Now that she didn't get the handle of taking bribes, she could only be shocked, and she didn't want to show her identity, so in the clouds, she told him to be taboo, and on the day of the opening, she planned to show him her face.
"I'll go and discuss with Master Lu and ask him to go to Linxian to find some more people." The master really can't wait, the emperor's order is here.
Manqing's wages are high, so it is not difficult for people to find, and finally everything is ready on the ninth day.
Su Wang moved the Chinese medicine cabinet into it overnight, it was full of Deng, and there were a complete variety of medicinal materials, and even Imperial Doctor Liu was full of praise when he saw it.
"These medicinal materials are very authentic, and the quality is all excellent, hehe, the old man is not afraid now, since he returned to Jiangnan, there are always some medicinal materials that cannot be bought, so he can only go to the Hu family pharmacy to buy sky-high prices."
"I don't think it's far from Linxian, why don't you go over there?"
"You don't know, the pharmacy in Linxian County is also the Hu family, and the entire Jiangnan is controlled by him, if anyone's family goes against him, I don't know what's going on, he will always not be able to do it, you have to be careful, I heard that his family is also married to Qingwenhou in the capital!"
Man Qing was angry, it turned out that her family had also become the tiger skin of the Hu family.
"Hehe, Qingwenhou is the most upright, how could he marry this kind of person? It must have been miscommunicated! ”
Among the guys accompanying him this time, only two had previously worked in a pharmacy, but Su Xing, the shopkeeper, was a layman, he was only in charge of sales, and Taiyi Liu brought an apprentice and an old man, someone had to change the consultation, and that old man was an experienced shopkeeper.
Manqing had already told Imperial Physician Liu that the silver for the consultation belonged to him, and the prescription prescribed was divided into three percent of the profits, and Imperial Physician Liu resigned for a long time, and finally agreed.
The old old position of the second shopkeeper, the salary is comparable to Su Xing, of course, Su Xing, as Manqing's person, the sum at the end of the year is not a small number.
Jimin Hall is lively and lively, in addition to the lion dance, there are a series of preferential activities, the door is placed to cool off the heat, and there are bags of anti-mosquito and anti-insect medicine bags,
The guys were working hard to promote, and Man Qing was also dressed all over and stood in the store.
The Hu family sent three groups of people to inquire back in every detail, but they only knew that there were nobles in the store, but they didn't know who it was, and the most important news was Imperial Doctor Liu!
"What do you say? Is Mrs. Liu sitting in Langzhong? This old horseman, Lao Tzu hired him with a lot of money, but he didn't come, but he went to another house, didn't he know, this Jiangnan is surnamed Hu? ”
"Master, the origin of this Jimin Hall is very suspicious, and the person who can ask the imperial doctor must have a background."
"Background? So what, don't forget, we also have a background, my Hu family is in Jiangnan, and I don't rely on the prefect, hmph, ask someone to explore again and find out who the nobles in the store are? ”
The prefect also paid close attention, for the fire, his intestines were repentant, with his sensitive sense of smell, the person who bought the shop was not simple, and then saw the doctor Liu sitting in the clinic and the luxurious young man in the shop, he decided, this muddy water will never be touched.
These people must be coming for the Hu family, their good days in Jiangnan are numbered, although the Hu family has the support of nobles, but the situation in the capital is fickle, I heard that the one has lost his favor, hehe, this time, it is not easy to see, the Hu family has lost for a while.
This effect is exactly what Manqing wants, she can't delay any longer, businessman to businessman, Su Xing has no problem, if the prefect gets involved, Su Xing has no chance of winning!
She didn't wait for the restaurant to open, and rushed west with Ah Shuang, Guangde Lou is very famous, how can anyone dare to find trouble without long eyes, they all know that it is the industry of Dingwangfu!
Those few people in the business are fine, but the Hu family is too dark, this time she left Ah Yuan, who can make moves under him, and Man Da'an can't find a few.
"Girl, can the Hu family know that it's us?"
"Just them? However, Su Tangji knew when it opened, and at that time, Jimintang also gained a firm foothold,"
This time when she went to Jiangnan, she found that she had underestimated the Hu family, and she could ignore her warnings and insist on not retiring from the marriage, which was not the confidence of money.
The first step is to get rid of the monopoly first, the few medicinal materials controlled by the Hu family, Jimintang not only has sufficient goods, but also has a low price, just this one, those small pharmacies in the past can come back to life, see what other means does the Hu family have? Ah Yuan can stare at it with wide eyes!
As for the prefect, there should be political sensitivity, she has done it so obviously, not to mention, when the Hu family is in a hurry, people really only play haha, don't give silver, and never interfere.
The master and servant didn't live in the store, so when they were tired, they went back to the space to rest, and there were many horses inside, so they replaced the cart and rushed to Yaocheng in less than three days.
When I arrived at the inn, I learned that my grandfather had traveled with Wen Jin, and they left a message, saying that they were going to leave for about a month, and it had only been three days.
Then let's do business first, she went directly to the government office, and when the prefect saw her, he hurriedly made a big salute, and the county lord finally arrived!
"I heard the emperor say, the people on Pearl Island are not easy to manage? Why haven't you found a shipmaker until now? "Man Qing is very familiar with him, and at that time, he encircled and suppressed Yuan Biao, and he often discussed matters together.
"Since Yuan Biao went to the capital, I sent someone to take over Pearl Island, who knows, the people on the island do not pay taxes, and said that they have paid enough for ten years, and they have been given to King Shun, and the big ship you brought back back was also returned to others, and now it is difficult to go to the island, and it is not easy to send troops."
"Is the yellow-haired one still there? I heard he's gone? ”
"Yes, there are still a few families on the island, they used to be the staff of the Shun Palace, but at that time, they had already left the palace with evidence, so they were not arrested, and the officials suspected that they were inciting the people."
King Shun's base camp was in Yunwu Island, which was one of the pearl islands, and she stood by the sea, took out a telescope, and inspected her fiefdom.
The masters are all finished, what confidence do they have to fight against the court? Having said that, the people on the island are really bitter, and they don't want to, since this island is her fiefdom, they have to be smoothed out!
"Have the fishermen in Qingpu Kok been looking for it? They have the ability to sail at night, but they don't have big boats. ”
"I went to look for it, but the people said no, and their ship was too small, even if it was built, it would be useless."
Man Qing pondered in his heart, in fact, the principle of the big ship and the small boat is almost the same, but the materials are different, if you study it carefully, maybe you can build it.
"Tomorrow, you can go with me to Qingpu Point, there are many capable people in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."
