Chapter 208: The Owner
Although Master Dong and Master Qin have a very good relationship, it is really not suitable for star fruit to live there all the time. Besides, Qiao An only went to Guozijian to study, and was not a serious student of Guozijian, so he couldn't occupy the student's house.
So, when it stabilized, star fruit rented a small courtyard outside as a temporary home for herself and Joan.
"Until next year, there will be more than half a year to finish the list. I don't think we can afford to spend the silver we brought, and when we go back, we can have a few thousand taels of silver in silver tickets. ”
Carambola handed Qiao An the account book of the Li family's pickles, and her shining eyes were full of a sense of achievement: "The medicinal materials of our Liumian Mountain are about to be collected, and I will find a good buyer in the capital, and it will be another sum of silver." ”
"If we really make money, let's go back to Liang County and open a free clinic. We don't take a penny from the really poor people. The star fruit snapped his fingers and calculated: "Take one percent of the income from the pickle shop, two percent from the Liumian Mountain, and another one percent from the pharmacy." In this way, it should not be difficult to raise 20,000 or 30,000 taels of silver a year. ”
"Good!"
Qiao An carefully flipped through the two pages of the account book, and her face was full of praise for star fruit: "If it can really be done, it will really be a blessing for the people of Liang County." ”
"Today, the shopkeeper came to me, and he wanted to order the medicinal materials of the Liumian Mountain." Carambola held her cheeks and looked at Qiao An, her dark and thick eyebrows frowned slightly, and she was slightly worried: "I myself am sitting in Anjitang, and if I really sell the medicinal materials again, I am really afraid of attracting gossip." It's not easy to open the prescription backwards. Use the medicine of the six-sided mountain, people say that they sell themselves and boast; But if it'......"
"Where are there so many?" Qiao An squeezed the hand of star fruit and said with a smile: "In business, in medicine." Anjitang wants to buy your medicine, how can there be a reason not to sell it? When it's time to prescribe medicine, we can prescribe whatever we should prescribe, and speak with quality and efficacy. ”
The star fruit's eyes, which were already full of light, became more and more bright, and even her voice became happy: "Is it really possible?" ”
"Absolutely!" Qiao An nodded affirmatively to her: "As long as we have a clear conscience, what others want to say, that's someone else's business." ”
"I'm not afraid." The small body of the star fruit straightened forward, but in an instant, there was a little worry in his eyes: "But after all, we are one, if I recruit people in Beijing, you will ...... the exam next year."
Joan laughed, laughing so dotingly. He took her into his arms, kissed her forehead and said, "Don't be afraid! Just by your character, you will definitely not be able to deduct points from me. ”
Carambola looked at him with wide, shiny eyes, obviously not at ease.
"Don't worry, it won't!" Joan put his arm on her shoulder, looked at her seriously and promised, "If it is really because of rumors that my future can be affected, then what's the point of me staying in such a court?" ”
Star fruit lowered her head and thought about it seriously, then hugged Qiao An's neck and kissed him on the cheek: "Then I'll talk to the shopkeeper tomorrow." ”
Although it was the shopkeeper himself who proposed to buy the six-sided yam herbs, he didn't even pay the price, and he didn't even ask about the type.
Star fruit looked at the shopkeeper Hu suspiciously, and hesitated: "Is everything really set half?" Do you really have no opinion on this price? ”
The shopkeeper Hu who was holding the tea sip put the tea cup painted with gold and colored porcelain back to the bottom tray, looked at the star fruit with sincerity and said: "Just rely on Dr. Yang to expose the character of the Rejuvenation Hall, what else can I believe?" The medicine you grow must be of the best quality, and if you want the price, it will definitely be the fairest price. ”
The price of star fruit is not real, in business, you have to give people room for bargaining, right?
But the shopkeeper Hu was so real, and his words and expressions were full of praise and trust in her, so that star fruit took the initiative to reduce the price by two percent: "In Shuzhou, such a price is a bit expensive." But if you want to ask the dart bureau to escort it over, the price level here in the capital is also higher than that in Shuzhou, so this price is already the fairest. ”
Shopkeeper Hu smiled heartily: "Dr. Yang is really a trustworthy person. ”
He stretched out his hand to pat the carambola on the shoulder, but when he saw the star fruit dodging to the side, he realized that there was a difference between men and women. So he withdrew his hand with a smile and said heartily: "You first contact Shuzhou about the delivery of medicine, and as for the price, I will call you back after I return to the owner." At least, that's what you said. ”
"Can't the shopkeeper be the master?" Star fruit was even more puzzled: "When the price was two percent higher before, didn't you say that you could sign the deed immediately?" ”
Shopkeeper Hu laughed, glanced at the star fruit meaningfully and said, "Don't worry, it's a good thing." ”
Sure enough, it's a good thing!
Shopkeeper Hu went to see the owner, and the next day he brought the deed to sign with the star fruit: "The owner said it, and it will come at the price you said earlier." The price in Beijing and Shuzhou are not the same, and we in Anjitang can't mess with the price of medicinal materials in the capital. So, according to the price you said earlier, you don't need to reduce that two percent. ”
Are there still businessmen in the world who take the initiative to ask not to reduce prices? You must know that this medicinal material is thousands of catties when you buy it, and the sum of the millimeters is not small, let alone two percent.
Carambola was not sure, she looked at the smiling shopkeeper in front of her, and didn't want to sell the medicinal herbs to him anymore.
"Got too much?" Shopkeeper Hu bent down, leaned close to Carambola and looked into her eyes and said, "If it weren't for you who brought down the Rejuvenation Hall, where would there be a place for Anjitang to settle in this capital?" The owner is grateful to you! ”
"It's not me who brings down the Rejuvenation Hall, it's ......"
"If you hadn't noticed the middle doorway, who would have known that the most prestigious medical clinic was doing that?" The shopkeeper Hu snorted and pretended to be angry: "In short, it is your credit, and the doctors in the medical hall in Beijing are grateful to you." ”
Carambola lowered her head and refused to accept it calmly.
Shopkeeper Hu was a little angry: "It's been half a month since you came to the shop, and you have some idea of the price of medicinal materials." The price you pretended to be a little higher, but it wasn't outrageous. The owner shares 30% of the profits and comes out to win you over, aren't you happy? ”
"If you want to sign, let's sign at a price that has been reduced by 20%." Star fruit also loves silver, and if she can earn more silver, she will laugh out loud when she falls asleep. But this thing is too strange, and she can't be down-to-earth and happy anyway.
"Do you have a grudge against the silver?" Shopkeeper Hu was also angry, and his face, which was still smiling just now, immediately collapsed: "You don't appreciate the owner's show of favor like this, what is Dr. Yang's dissatisfaction with Anjitang?" ”
Star fruit bowed its head and stalked its neck, still insisting.
Shopkeeper Hu and her stalemate for a long time, after all, he sighed and softened, sat down and sipped tea and persuaded: "The owner just appreciates your character and values your ability." So if you are willing to let Liliu keep you, you will change someone else, and you will already be secretly happy. ”
"Carambola thanked the owner, but it can be ......"
"Since it's Xie, then sign a contract to do business for the owner." Shopkeeper Hu pushed the deed in front of the star fruit, and the pen was dipped in ink and handed it to her: "I don't know what you're guarding against." A doctor from a foreign country, what is there to make up a calculation for others? Even if you have to calculate, just based on the price of the herbs you want to sell for an extra 10%, what can you calculate? ”
Also, the price of star fruit was only one percent more expensive than the market in Beijing. At that 10% price, it won't be a profiteer, right?
Carambola remembered the matter of going back to Liang County to run a free clinic, and the cost of running a free clinic was not small.
Looking at the price on the deed, star fruit couldn't help but feel a little moved: for the owner, the price of 20% is a few thousand taels of silver, but if you move these thousands of taels of silver, the free clinic will not be able to do it.
"Let's sign it!" Shopkeeper Hu directly stuffed the pen into the hand of star fruit: "If you don't say anything, you look at thousands of taels of silver." But in the eyes of the owners who buy and sell all over the country, what is it? ”
In this case, it seems that there is really no problem.
Although the carambola was still not sure, thinking of the free clinic and the families who sold their sons and daughters to see a doctor in order to survive, the carambola still signed the contract without hesitation.
"By the way, isn't it a great joy for everyone." Shopkeeper Hu put away his contract, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Dr. Yang, in the future, we will be a family." ”
It was clear that he had earned a lot of silver, but the star fruit was not happy.
She smiled perfunctorily at the shopkeeper, refused the celebration banquet in the evening, and hurried home.
talked about this matter with Qiao An at night, although Qiao An didn't show anything on his face, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. Although it is not comprehensive and fair to say that there is no traitor and no business, it also sums up the characteristics of a businessman to a certain extent.
A few thousand taels of silver is not a decimal number, and it is difficult to say whether An Jitang can earn two thousand taels of silver for the owner a year.
In the middle of this, I am not sure what is going on with my mind.
But the star fruit has been signed and stamped, so what can I do besides? Qiao An put away her worries, rubbed her star fruit forehead and said, "The big families in the capital, just reward a subordinate is a hundred taels of silver." It is not uncommon for your proprietor to give away a few thousand taels of silver. ”
Carambola didn't speak, but a pair of big eyes were asking her, "Really?" ”
"Really!" Qiao An smiled lightly, cut her peeled big peach into pieces and fed it to her mouth, and said, "How difficult it is to find a good doctor like you." With you, Anjitang's business will definitely be no worse. With that little money, you will help him earn it back in less than a year. He doesn't lose anything. ”
Thinking about Anjitang's business recently, star fruit's heart finally settled down. She took the peach from Qiao An's hand and ate it herself, and occasionally fed a piece in Qiao An's mouth: "Then I will help him guard the pharmacy with peace of mind and strive to earn him more silver." ”
The two talked and laughed, read the book for more than an hour and then fell asleep.
Carambola rested on Joan's arm and slept soundly all night, and Joan looked at her peaceful eyebrows and eyes and her heart turned a thousand times.
Early the next morning, Qiao An exhausted all his ability to check the owner of Anjitang and the shopkeeper Hu who always smiled and praised the star fruit for bringing down the Rejuvenation Hall.
But before he could find out the details of the other party, he had an accident first.
It was one afternoon after the medicinal herbs from the Liumian Mountain were transported, and Qiao An came home from Guozi's supervision. When I walked to a secluded place, people suddenly surrounded me from all directions. They had clubs and weapons in their hands, and at first glance they were not good.
Qiao An is also considered to be excellent in martial arts, and under the siege of a group of people who are also skilled in kung fu, she was knocked out after only holding on to a cup of tea.
At that time, star fruit was being pulled by the shopkeeper Hu for a treat. When star fruit got the news, the Qiao family was already unconscious.
She hurried home, and after checking her pulse herself, she couldn't hold back her crying: "Why is it so badly injured, what should I do?" ”
After pretending to persuade Steward Hu in the past, he turned to the front street after going out and entered the red sleeve move.
When Steward Zhou saw him, he smiled deeply on his face: "It's all right?" ”
Steward Hu nodded: "Just waiting for your order!" ”
"So what are you waiting for? Open the whole! ”
