Chapter 43: Opponents
When I got back to the shop, it was almost ten o'clock in the morning.
Before he entered, Li Changjing found that the shop, which was usually overcrowded and lively, had become empty today, with only a few customers patronizing, which made him feel very strange.
Liu Qingtan was not in the shop, Li Changjing asked Lin Jia, only to know that she had gone out in a hurry just now, and she didn't know what to do, so she only said that she would come back in ten minutes.
Li Changjing was not in a hurry, made tea in the store, and waited slowly.
Now there are already six salesmen in the store, because the business has been booming before, Li Changjing's salary for them has risen from 15,000 to 20,000, there is a commission, and there is a year-end bonus, Liu Qingtan was borrowed by Li Changjing from Huo Qingrou, and now it is the finance of the shop, Li Changjing will not treat her badly, the salary is directly opened to 50,000 yuan, and everything in the store is managed by her, so nominally, Liu Qingtan is actually half a store manager.
Li Changjing drank tea, came to Liu Qingtan's desk, and found that everything was very tidy, there was a booklet in front of the computer, Li Changjing opened it and looked at it, and found that it was a monthly summary, which recorded all the income and expenses of the shop in detail, and now it was just the middle of the month, and the total profit had reached more than 600,000 yuan, which was very considerable.
It's just cold, Li Changjing found that behind Liu Qingtan's computer, there was a black thing with long fingers, he frowned, his heart moved, and he wanted to see what it was, but at this time Liu Qingtan had already come back from outside, holding seven or eight small white medicine bottles in both hands, and walked very quickly.
"This is the medicine I just bought at the shop next door." Liu Qingtan put the white bottle in his hand on the table, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hand, and looked worried.
"The shop next door?" Li Changjing was surprised: "There is also a shop like ours next door?" ”
"That's right." Liu Qingtan picked up the water cup and took a sip of tea, "I called you back for this matter." ”
"The shop next door, called 'Nantianmen', was newly opened three days ago, and like ours here, it sells seven more popular pills, such as Tongtianxiao, Huayuan Dan, and Qibao Qi Nourishing Pill."
Liu Qingtan said angrily: "But the shop next door is obviously here to grab business, and the unified price of these seven pills is 2088, which is much cheaper than ours, and many customers have gone over there these days." ”
Li Changjing was silent, picked up a bottle on the table, pulled off the cork, poured out a white pill the size of a little thumb from it, and gently put it in his mouth.
As the elixir melted in his mouth, a warm and cool sensation immediately spread throughout his body, clearing his mind.
Liu Qingtan looked at him nervously and asked, "How is it?" ”
Li Changjing frowned, did not rush to answer, silently poured out the remaining pills in the bottles, crushed them one by one with his fingers, carefully observed the ingredients of the essence of the medicinal herbs, and then sniffed them carefully with his nose, and then shook his head.
"These pills are not as good as our shop." Li Changjing said softly: "Whether it is the purity of the medicinal materials or the content of the medicinal amount, it is far inferior, at most it is only half of the efficacy of the pill we have here." ”
Liu Qingtan breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest with his white and tender hands, "I'm scared to death, I thought Xu Zhenhai was back." ”
Li Changjing was surprised: "The shop next door is opened by the Xu family?" ”
Liu Qingtan was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "This is not true." For a long time, I had only heard that Xu Zhenhai would refine pills, but now that I have an inexplicable store, I will have a preconceived idea that it is him. ”
Li Changjing nodded thoughtfully and didn't say anything. Daye City is mixed, there are a lot of cultivators, and there must be a lot of people who can refine medicine, the difference is that the kung fu of refining medicine has not reached home. Before, Xu Zhenhai's Dengxian Pavilion, I heard that the pills sold were all of top quality, and they directly monopolized all the pill industries in Daye City, at that time, those who were not skilled in craftsmanship would certainly not come out to be ashamed, but now that Xu Zhenhai is missing, the quality of the pills sold in Dengxian Pavilion has dropped significantly, which makes other people who can refine medicine ready to move, especially after Li Changjing started, it is really normal to have a few more pill shops.
It's just that the "Nantianmen" next door must be weird, after all, this is the Wanhe Center, the territory of the Huo family, Huo Qingrou should not let the opponent come to rob his family's business, so if the Nantianmen is not opened by the Xu family, it should be the handiwork of Huo Erye.
Li Changjing thought for a while and ordered: "The store next door, if you don't come to make trouble, then we don't have to worry about him." ”
Liu Qingtan nodded, "Got it." ”
After all, Li Changjing said that the pills in our store are all first-class quality, and the ones next door are just some shoddy products, even if the price is low, when the guests are not used to it, they will naturally come back.
"By the way, Miss said that I was looking for you for something." Liu Qingtan gave Li Changjing a white card, "If you are free now, go and see her." ”
Li Changjing took the sign and said hello.
Wanhe Center was bustling with people, and Li Changjing took the exclusive elevator to the Huojia office building and slowly ascended.
Twenty floors high, in the blink of an eye.
In the reception room, Huo Qingrou rarely wore a pink cheongsam, the skirt was very short, only to the legs, the part below the pink knee was very eye-catching, slender and not lacking in roundness, giving people the illusion that just a pair of long legs accounted for almost half of the height.
Huo Qingrou poured Li Changjing a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, my illness has completely recovered, and this is all thanks to your help." ”
Li Changjing snorted, no special emotion.
Huo Qingrou didn't care, she smiled, and said softly: "The shop has been very busy recently, I already know it, I'm worried that Mr. Li can't be busy refining medicine alone, so I specially found a few cultivators for you to relieve you a little burden." ”
Li Changjing just wanted to refuse, but Huo Qingrou had already taken the lead and said: "Mr. Li, don't worry, I spent a high price to buy a medicine refining machine from the Xu family, so Mr. Li only needs to explain the basic operation of medicine refining and let the people below do it." ”
Li Changjing was surprised: "A machine for refining medicine? Is it the kind that Xu Zhenhai uses? ”
Huo nodded softly with a smile.
Li Changjing's face was a little solemn, he thought about it for a while, and said softly: "If there is really such a machine, then Miss Huo will send someone over, and I will personally teach them the process of refining medicine when the time comes." ”
Huo Qingrou's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "You don't need to send it over, the machine and the person are upstairs, I'll take you up to have a look." ”
Li Changjing has nothing to do, he has always been very curious about Xu Zhenhai's method of refining medicine.
There are many floors in Wanhe Center, Huo Qingrou took Li Changjing to the exclusive elevator, all the way to the 30th floor, and finally saw the machine in a workshop.
