Chapter 16: Money is like life
Qian Ruming hurriedly bowed his waist and said: "Young master, others gave me the nickname Qian Ruming, just because I pay attention to the six relatives in business, Ye Fu hired me, I am just a shopkeeper, you can call me Qian Shopkeeper here." ”
Ye Xiu nodded and said, "Okay, money shopkeeper, you can bring me the account books of the previous months, including the purchase list." ”
"Okay!"
The one-person-high ledger is stacked together, in which the handwriting is neat, the accounts are detailed, and even the pen and ink used in the pharmacy are clearly written.
Ye Xiu couldn't help but exclaim, this Qian Rufeng was really a rare business talent.
"Money shopkeeper, I check the accounts more to understand the price of medicinal materials, not to suspect you."
Qian Ruming nodded and said: "Young master, this medicinal material fluctuates greatly with the season and supply and demand, and sometimes the emergence of some new medicines will directly drive the skyrocketing price of its raw materials." ”
"I know." Ye Xiu said, took a pen and sketched out several of the cheapest medicinal materials in the account book: "Use all the money left, buy goods, and only buy these kinds." ”
Qian Ruming turned his head and looked at the names of the medicinal herbs circled by Ye Xiu, and his eyebrows tightened: "These are the cheapest?" ”
"That's right."
Qian Rufang thought for a while, and said: "Young master, it stands to reason that I shouldn't ask more, but these medicinal materials can only make some medicines that don't hurt or itch and can't be sold, so the price is low. ”
Ye Xiu raised his finger and pointed to the medicine pavilion that opened across the road: "Our business has plummeted, isn't it because of it?" ”
When it came to the medicine pavilion opposite, Qian Ru was angry, and said angrily: "The Gu family is hateful, stealing our prescriptions, knowing that we don't have much money in our accounts, and they also keep the price extremely low, and even sell at a loss." ”
In addition to being angry, Qian Ruming waved his short and fat arm: "There is something even more hateful, they actually send people to our Zhibao Pavilion every once in a while to make trouble, relying on money and medicinal materials!" ”
Ye Xiu's eyes were cold, this Gu family really deserves to be the family of the third lady, and even doing things is a virtue.
"Therefore, if you want to kill him, you can't rely on the old sesame seeds and rotten grains, you have to sell some pills that they can't make."
As soon as Ye Xiu's words came out, Qian Ruming showed a happy expression on his face, and said happily: "No wonder Young Master, you are so decisive, it turns out that you have invited an alchemist!" ”
Different from ordinary doctors who see patients and sell medicines, the threshold and status of alchemists in Cangyuan Continent are extremely high, and sometimes even a top alchemist can change the pattern between countries.
Some special pills, soldiers and generals take to calm the mind and lift the force in a short period of time, and the battlefield is naturally invincible and invincible.
Even ordinary alchemists are talents competing among various families.
However, Ye Xiu instantly broke a basin of cold water for the excited Qian Rufang: "Alchemist? Not really. ”
Qian Rufang, who had just been high-spirited, suddenly looked like a deflated ball, blinked and wilted, and his voice was weak: "Then young master, do you want to?" ”
"I refine my own medicine."
Qian Rufang's mouth was open like a fish about to die of thirst, and he couldn't close it for a long time, and it took half a day to squeeze out a few words from his throat: "Young master, do you practice it yourself?" ”
If it weren't for Ye Xiu right in front of him, Qian Rufang would have been eager to slap himself and make himself sober.
The whole Imperial City knew what kind of person Ye Xiu was, and Qian Ruming, as the shopkeeper of the Ye family's pharmacy, naturally knew better.
