Chapter 34: The Medicine Hall
"Shopkeeper Tong, no matter what kind of thing you bring, I will come to this shop every day in the future."
Lu Huan'er said and pulled Lu Feng and Lu Lei again: "These two children will live in the backyard in the future, you take them to settle down!" ”
The shopkeeper Tong was a little flustered when he saw Lu Huan'er's sharp voice.
went to the counter and took a few thick records, and handed them to Lu Huan'er: "It's all here." ”
Seeing Lu Huan'er take it, she lowered her head and lowered her eyes, she was not very old, and she was a little disdainful in her heart.
After all, it's a girl, how big a wave can it make? Besides, this account book has been changed, and even Shangshufu has not found a problem in the past few years.
I want to comfort my heart.
Shopkeeper Tong took Lu Feng and Lu Lei to the backyard.
Lu Huan'er led everyone out of the herbal medicine hall, looked back at the dark gray plaque, and was unhappy.
Just as he was summing up, Qiu Tong saw Qi Wang Ye coming out of the teahouse next to him from a distance, followed by Xiao Bei and Xiao Nan.
Qi Long walked out of the teahouse and was waiting for the carriage to come, when he suddenly saw Lu Huan'er standing at the door of the herbal medicine hall next to him.
Xiao Nan also saw Lu Huan'er, waved his hands, and shouted loudly: "Miss Lu............ Here......"
When Lu Huan'er saw Qi Long, she didn't even think about running over.
When Qi Long saw her running over, he was happy in his heart, smiling, and the unhappiness of talking to several adults in the ministry just now disappeared a little.
"How did you get here?" Qi Long asked.
"Lord Wang, the herb hall next to me, my mother handed it over to me to take care of, let me practice business!"
"Oh? Such a good thing? How does it feel? Seeing that Lu Huan'er's face was worried, Qi Long asked with concern.
"Lord Wang, what would you do if your subordinates were lying to you?" Lu Huan'er asked.
Qi Long smiled: "Xiao Nan? Pull it out and cut it! ”
Xiao Nan heard a busy voice in the back: "Master, it's none of my business!" ”
"Hahaha~" Lu Huan'er smiled:
"Lord Wang, can this herb hall ask for your pen and ink? I still have to bother the prince to give another name, okay? ”
Qi Long nodded and agreed: "Go home now?" ”
Lu Huan'er also nodded.
When I got into Qi Long's carriage, I found that there was no one else.
Did the rest of them all get into their own pony carriages?
For this automatic default method, Lu Huan'er still feels very sweet.
got into the carriage and heard Xiao Nan shouting outside the carriage: "Miss Lu, there are snacks prepared for you by the prince in the carriage!" Taste it."
Lu Huan'er glanced at Qi Long, he smiled silently, but opened the food box, which contained plum blossom snacks.
Qi Long signaled, Lu Huan'er picked up a piece, and the fragrance of flowers came to her face.
"What's the confusion today?" Qi Long asked.
Lu Huan'er put down her snack: "Lord Wang, the herbal medicine hall is located in the downtown area and is a residential area, but it can't make ends meet, and it has been maintaining a small profit in the past few years." ”
Seeing that Qi Long was listening carefully, Lu Huan'er continued:
When the shopkeeper saw the medicinal materials that were not in the prescription, he did not try to dispense the medicine, but shirked the lack and sent him to the medical hall. Although I don't know about medicinal materials, I don't know much about medicinal materials, but looking at the quality of the medicinal materials in the medicine hall, it's not very good! ”
After listening to this, Qi Long said: "The first in the capital is the Medical Cooperative Hall, followed by the Imperial Merchants, and the Imperial Doctors in the Medical Cooperative Hall are on call every ten days, and half of the income of the Medical Cooperative Hall is handed over to the imperial court!" ”
Lu Huan'er never knew about these things, and listened to Qi Long:
"The imperial merchant is closely related to the imperial court, and the head of the medical union hall is called Zhao Yi, who is the nephew of Prime Minister Zhao."
"This Zhao Yi is a character, in order to monopolize medicinal materials, he should have used some means, I didn't pay attention to these things before, do you want me to help you?" Qi Long asked.
"Don't, Lord Wang, you helped me too much, this time I want to try it myself!" Lu Huan'er said firmly.
"Don't be reckless, don't take risks, don't put yourself in danger! I'll worry about you! ”
Qi Long said, touching the top of her head with his hand, which was the most intimate action between the two recently.
"Got it, Lord Wang," Lu Huan'er replied with a smile.
"I'll write when I go home, Xiao Bei is okay today, let him help you later, hang the plaque of the medicine hall!"
Lu Huan'er agreed.
"What's the name that comes to mind?" Qi Long asked
"It's good that the prince is here, I will see a surprise tomorrow!" Lu Huan'er said.
"By the way, I haven't thanked the prince for the pearl!" Lu Huan'er suddenly remembered.
"Is it a congratulatory gift for you to be promoted to a general?" Qi Long said with a smile.
"Lord Wang, you also make fun of me!" Lu Huan'er pretended to be angry.
"Don't be angry, your martial arts are progressing rapidly now, Xiao Bei is not your opponent, you can afford to be a general!"
Lu Huan'er stretched out his hand and slapped Qi Long, but let him hold it in his hand, Qi Long laughed, Lu Huan'er lowered his eyebrows and was ashamed.
Xiao Nan stretched out his ears outside the carriage, and he couldn't stop laughing with the plot in the carriage!
The sullen prince is also a master of flirting with girls.
Back at the palace, Qi Long instructed Xiao Dong before entering the study:
"You secretly went to check the shopkeeper of that herb hall and the source of the purchase."
When Lu Huan'er returned home, she hugged the thick account book and went to the account room of the Lu Mansion with Steward Meng.
When the housekeeper Zhang saw that it was Lu Huan'er, he hurriedly took over the account book, he didn't know if he didn't read it, and he was shocked when he saw it!
Steward Zhang called several small account rooms at the same time, and several people were in a row.
He took out the abacus, put the paper on it, crackled and began to tick the mark.
After a while, a few pieces of paper were placed in front of Lu Huan'er.
Lu Huan'er understood that Steward Zhang was divided into three major items according to the purchase price, the bidding price, and the price difference.
Several guys are divided into the profits from selling herbs and boiling medicines, and the cost of boiling medicines is marked separately.
In this way, it is clear that the purchase price is higher than the selling price for half a year.
Steward Zhang said: "Miss, this account book is fake, it is all superficial figures, I am afraid that from the account book alone, I can't find a problem, I can only say that the operator is not good at management." ”
Lu Huan'er also knows that herbs have transportation costs, timeliness, and with the current season's illness, the selling price will fluctuate, and it really can't explain anything from the account book alone.
However, you can't let the shopkeeper Tong steal chickens and dogs in the medicine hall, and such a person can't be kept!
Lu Huan'er borrowed a bookkeeper from Steward Zhang, and the guy promised to help in the pharmacy during this time.
Lu Huan'er returned to the yard and called Chunxiang:
"Chunxiang, starting tomorrow, our pharmacy will be handed over to you, you first learn to read the accounts with the bookkeeper, and Xia Chan will also go over to help you every day, okay?"
Chunxiang didn't expect Lu Huan'er to hand over the medicine hall to her, and she was excited and didn't know what to say: "Thank you, Miss, I will definitely do a good job!" ”
Lu Huan'er asked: "You are familiar with the boiling and grasping of herbs during your time in the Medical Cooperative Hall?" ”
"Miss, I know all the commonly used Chinese medicines, and I am not familiar with the special ones, but there is no problem with boiling the medicine, and the heat and dosage are all known!"
Lu Huan'er nodded, she didn't expect Chunxiang to learn so much.
"The guy who decocted the medicine in the medicine hall, you and Xia Chan are staring at it, if you can use it, you can stay, the shopkeeper Tong doesn't have to worry about him for now, take over directly, tomorrow I will accept a Mr. of medicinal materials and build our own medicine hall!"
I remembered it again and said to Chunxiang: "The two children living in the medicine hall are Lu Feng and Lu Lei, and tomorrow I will start teaching them to boil or catch medicine, see which one they like and which one they do!" ”
On the second day, a few people went to the medicine hall early, and Lu Huan'er was still looking forward to the plaque written by Qi Long, full of joy all the way.
When I got off the carriage, I saw a gold-carved wooden plaque on a blue background standing squarely under the beam of the medicine hall.
Qilong's flowing font is about to come out, and the lower left corner of the plaque is also eye-catching with the seal of Qilong, the king of Anyang.
Materia Medica
Lu Huan'er suddenly burst into tears, Qi Long still understood her.
Grass, the root of medicine; Ben, do not forget the original intention.
