Chapter Seventy-One: Planning for the Future

After that, I don't know how Bai Huaping told the people of Huayan Temple, when Xiao Yiran heard about it, Xiao Yiwan had already left home.

Because she is now delirious, Bai Huaping asked the people of Huayan Temple to lock her in a house, and provide her with food from time to time, and then the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion will give money on time.

In the end, this time I went up the mountain to pray for blessings, and Xiao Yiwan went crazy. When she went back, Xiao Yiran and Xiao Yiling were sitting in a carriage, and they could feel her uneasiness, thinking that they had contacted her.

She sneered in her heart, for Xiao Zhiyuan, these children are just tools for his promotion, if you want not to be discarded, it depends on whose ability is more valuable.

Because there is one less big living person, this matter can't be hidden even if you want to. After going back, when Aunt Su heard the news, her whole person became excited, and she hurriedly went to Xiao Zhiyuan to intercede, but Xiao Zhiyuan would change his mind because of her, so he refused to see her.

Aunt Su saw that there was no hope of pleading, and her only support in this mansion was gone, as if her spiritual pillar had collapsed all of a sudden, her body, which had not recovered after giving birth, became weaker and weaker, and even her spirit became a little trance.

After Xiao Yiran heard Xianglan tell her this, her mood suddenly became a little complicated, after all, this Aunt Su has always been her duty, but in this cannibalistic Hou Mansion, even if she has no more duty, it is useless.

On this day, Xiao Yiran went out of the house again to see the two shopkeepers Xue, since the shopkeeper Xue's eyes were better, the business of this Baicaotang was a little better than before, but even so, the store still couldn't make ends meet.

Xiao Yiran looked at the people who were seeing a doctor in twos and threes, and asked Xiao Haidao beside him: "How many medical centers are there in this Beijing?" ”

"Hui Gongzi, there are about seven or eight in this capital together with our Baicao Hall."

So many homes? Xiao Yiran frowned, as soon as there are more shops of the same type in a place, the competitiveness will increase. Not to mention a medical center like this, Kangtai has so many people, and not everyone is sick every day, so the competition between so many medical centers is self-evident.

"Which ones have better business?"

Xiao Hai replied: "It's mainly the Hanging Pot Hall in the south of the city, and there are ......" He hesitated for a moment: "Yong'an Hall not far from our Baicao Hall." ”

Yong'an Hall? Isn't it the same hospital that fought with them last time? Also, with the support of the Qinhou Mansion behind him, business will naturally be better.

"We in Baicaotang usually buy medicinal materials from the Shenghong Medicinal Material Caravan?" Speaking of Yong'an Hall, Xiao Yiran couldn't help but think of the last time it was because this medicinal material caravan did not abide by the agreement that it caused such a bad thing. People who are not honest, she is not willing to cooperate with them in the future.

"Yes." Xiao Hai nodded: "Because medicinal materials like this batch entering the capital are subject to strict control, and the entire Li Kingdom, that is, the Shenghong medicinal material caravan, has this qualification." Therefore, not only our Baicaotang, but also the source of medicinal materials for all the medical halls in Beijing is also their caravan. ”

That's going to be a tough thing to do. Xiao Yiran dragged his chin and pondered, if he wanted to open the medical hall, the first thing was to solve the problem of the source of goods, but this Shenghong medicinal material caravan was indeed not an ideal partner, so what should they do? The idea of smuggling from outside the city is clearly unrealistic. Xiao Yiran really couldn't think of a way for a while.

"Alas~" She sighed, and then her eyes swept around the Baicao Hall, and found that many of the furnishings were very old, and the powder skin on the walls had fallen off in some places. Probably because the business in the store is not good and there is not enough money, so it has not been repaired.

Xiao Yiran frowned, although the medical hall should not be as luxuriously decorated as a hotel, but normal people will always consider the scale decoration of the medical hall, after all, the façade is people's first impression. With furnishings like Baicaotang, many people may really be persuaded to retire like this.

She took out a bag of silver from her sleeve and handed it to Xiao Hai: "Give." ”

Xiao Hai was taken aback: "Childe, how can this—how can this work?" Why do you suddenly want to give me so much silver? ”

Seeing that the child was about to be stunned, and the words were not good, Xiao Yiran smiled helplessly: "It's not for you, I want you to take this money and repair the store well." ”

Knowing that he had something to do, Xiao Hai suddenly blushed, and took the silver: "So that's the case." But......" He looked at the silver and hesitated a little, not knowing whether he should use it to decorate the house.

Xiao Yiran smiled slightly: "Just take it." Find some good carpenters, and quickly replace all the worn-out items in the shop. Come back and tell me when you're done, I'll figure it out. Don't forget, I'm the shopkeeper of Baicaotang now, you have to listen to me! ”

Xiao Hai's eyes moistened instantly, he also wanted to improve the environment of Baicaotang over the years, but he had more than enough heart and not enough strength, and now Xiao Yiran did this, which made him see the hope that Baicaotang would become better.

Xiao Yiran saw that he was moved, and he was amused in his heart. This silver is indeed not too much, but it is also a month's silver in the Hou Mansion, and she pawned some jewelry before coming to make it up.

Ever since the white screen came out, the authority of the inner house has faintly shown signs of tilting like hers. But this is also what she expected, after all, Bai Huaping has been in charge of the Hou Mansion for so many years, but it is far from being comparable to the fledgling Zou family.

If she didn't guess wrong, it wouldn't be long before Bai Huaping would regain the power of the family. Then it won't be as easy for her to get out of the house in the future as it is now.

Taking advantage of the fact that it is more free to go out of the house now, I will get the first funds for the launch of Baicaotang first, and then talk about it, as for the future......

If someone has Baicaotang, she won't worry about silver.

And also! Xiao Yiran's expression became solemn, she still had to go to the underground black market, contact the people in Weiyang Palace, and inquire about the person who sent a killer to intercept her, these need a lot of money!

Make hay! Make hay! She must make money!

Xiao Yiran carefully planned the future of Baicaotang, and funds and connections were all problems that needed to be solved. In terms of connections, the first thing she thought of was the Murong brothers and sisters, they had lived in the capital for many years, and if they helped, they would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

In addition, Murong Yuan is also a soldier, how can a soldier who usually leads soldiers to fight without being injured, if she can win these people over, then their Baicaotang will be of great benefit.

After thinking about this, Xiao Yiran almost returned to the mansion.

It may be that God is helping her, just when she was still thinking about how to contact Murong Liang and the others, Xiao Zhiyuan suddenly told them a piece of news, the birthday of the Empress the day after tomorrow, it stands to reason that every noble family in the Li Kingdom will go to her birthday banquet, and the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion is no exception.

This made Xiao Yiran couldn't help but be happy, the current queen is the aunt of Murong Yuan's brothers and sisters, and they are bound to attend her birthday banquet, isn't it easy to find a time to meet at that time?

Hearing this, Bai Huaping and the others were obviously very happy, but they were happy that they could go out to the banquet. One by one, they all got busy, thinking about what new clothes to wear and what jewelry to bring. Because of Xiao Yiwan's incident in the house, the low air pressure instantly dispersed.
