Chapter 391: Fidelity Pharmacy
After Mrs. Wen Xiu returned from Lianfu, she sent someone to deliver the news the next afternoon, saying that the matter of her mother-in-law's birthday banquet had been completed, and there were about 80 female guests and guests, counting the young ladies and daughters-in-law brought by each family, there must be about 200 people.
When Cui'er heard this number, her heart immediately burst into joy. What Cui'er saw at this time was not a gift box for 200 people, at least a loss of 1,000 taels of silver, but the market behind these 200 people, maybe 500 people, maybe 2,000 people, maybe 4,000 people, maybe more......
In modern marketing theory, there is a saying that behind one customer, there will be twenty potential customers. If you can attract these 80 guests and make these 200 guests recognize their flower tea, then you can not only win these customers, but also make them and the thousands of customers represented behind them flock to it.
This is not the best part, the best part is that the female guests who can participate in the 50th birthday of the prince of the Dingguo Mansion must all have status and money, and the role of helping their family become famous is leveraged!
Thinking so, Cui'er was almost unable to help herself with excitement, taking stock of her own tea and the supply of flowers, calculating how much flower tea she had to prepare to sell in addition to the drinking tea and tea gift boxes for these two hundred people.
After three or five days of busyness, Cui'er straightened out these things, not to mention the newly made tea transferred from Huxi by her father, and she had to work harder to make this flower tea.
The business of Biye Piaoxiang House is good. Rao is Ye Ye has transferred a lot of tea from the tea garden in Huxi, but it still seems that it can't meet the needs of sales. In addition, there is still the matter of electing the emperor and the merchant hanging in the future, and Master Ye discussed it with Ye Qing and Ye Biyi. It's better to buy some tea mountains in the suburbs of the capital, and when the time comes, the tea workers will be transferred directly from Huxi, and the tea picking and roasting will be completed nearby, and even Cui'er can develop new tea more conveniently.
At this busy time, Cui'er heard another happy event. It's nothing else, it's the shopkeeper Liu who helped Lian Qingshan Pharmaceutical two months ago, and now he has found the location of the pharmacy. After packing up the purchase channels and the drugs to be put on the shelves, it is ready to open.
"Ready to open?" When Cui'er heard Uncle Zhong give her an important matter. I was taken aback. When the shop was bought, plus cleaning up the yard, it cost a total of 1,500 taels of silver, and later Cui'er asked Uncle Zhong to allocate 1,000 taels of silver to the shopkeeper Liu's start-up capital, but I didn't expect it to take long. It's already about to open.
"Exactly, all kinds of things are ready, and I am specially begging me to ask Madame when it will open." Uncle Zhong said respectfully to Cui'er.
Although there are a lot of industries under Cui'er's name, it can really be regarded as a business, and there is really nothing, this pharmacy run by the shopkeeper Liu can really be regarded as the first!
"If you want to open or something, just check the nearest auspicious day of the zodiac. Although I am the owner of this shop, I only take half of the dry shares. Shopkeeper Liu is a capable person, since he has become the shopkeeper of the pharmacy. You can decide with him about this, that is, after the opening, I will take the time to go around. Cui'er didn't have too many expectations for the pharmacy, she just thought that she could take out enough gold sore medicine for Lian Qingshan's side.
"Okay, I'll do that." Uncle Zhong nodded in response, and returned a few other things to Cui'er, and then went out to get busy again.
Five days later, it will be the opening day of Cui'er's pharmacy. Cui'er, as the owner of the shop and fifty percent of the dry shares, said that she would not cut the ribbon. But I also want to join in the fun. Two days before the opening, I changed into low-key clothes and went out in a Upeng carriage, ready to make a fortune in the pharmacy.
The Upeng carriage made by Cui'er is often used by the head of the family, and it is not the more gorgeous and beautiful carriage she usually has, so when she walks on the road after leaving the house, no one will look back and watch.
Without saying anything all the way, Cui'er's carriage arrived at Nancheng Commercial Street smoothly and smoothly, and stopped at the door of the pharmacy safely. Cui'er helped Yahuan's men get out of the car, and saw the shop with a plaque already hung, with four big characters on it, fidelity pharmacy.
Although the opening date of this pharmacy was not set by Cui'er, the name of this pharmacy was given by Cui'er. Cui'er asked this shopkeeper Liu to open a pharmacy, just to let Lian Qingshan get good gold sore medicine at that time, as for whether the pharmacy makes money or not, and how much money it makes, it is not in Cui'er's first consideration.
Because the things under consideration are different, the positioning of this pharmacy is also different, and the name of this fidelity pharmacy is also to make the shopkeeper Liu vigilant, not to make fake drugs and sell fake drugs to harm others and himself.
When Cui'er got out of the carriage, Liu Ming, the child of the shopkeeper Liu, who had already listened to Xin'er, was waiting at the door, and after seeing Cui'er coming, she was busy giving Cui'er a salute.
"Get up, after moving out of the house for so many days, how are the legs of the shopkeeper Liu?" Cui'er saw that Liu Ming was fatter than when she first saw her, and seemed to have jumped up a little more, so she asked with a smile.
"If I go back to the owner's house, my grandfather's leg is much better, and with the silver given by the owner, this good medicine is used to eat good food, and now there is no major problem except for some pain when it rains." Liu Ming replied respectfully to Cui'er, with a faint look of joy on her face.
Speaking of which, the leg of the shopkeeper Liu was interrupted by the original owner, just as Cui'er guessed at the beginning, and the reason was that he hated the pharmaceutical ability of the shopkeeper Liu.
And his original owner, now Master Jin, heard that Shopkeeper Liu had been taken away, so he sent several groups of people to the original courtyard of Shopkeeper Liu, and his fierce appearance frightened the neighbors next to him. If it weren't for the fact that Shopkeeper Liu had already lived in the Lian Mansion, then Lord Jin couldn't afford to provoke the family of the general who was on the expedition, so he might have knocked on the door.
Rao is Lord Jin did not go to the house, but he has been sending people to keep an eye on it, after the shopkeeper Liu found this courtyard, the person who Lord Jin was looking for smelled the wind and came to the door, blocking the two grandsons of the shopkeeper Liu.
Because of the presence of people from the Lian family, those people did not dare to directly beat people, but blocked the door and prevented people from entering and leaving, forcing Shopkeeper Liu to have nowhere to hide. After the shopkeeper Liu relied on his courage and danced with his life to drive people out, he broke his foot because he was too excited because of his age, and his leg disease also recurred.
That's when Cui'er asked at the beginning, asking if the shopkeeper Liu's leg was better.
Following Liu Ming from the open door panel to the shop, Cui'er raised her eyes and saw that on the right wall of the shop, the medicinal herb cabinets on the wall were neatly arranged, and the large board cabinet in front of her was placed with medicine scales, hand grinders for pounding medicine, and reed paper for medicine.
On the left is a row of lattice shelves, on the shelves are not anything else, but porcelain bottles and jars of different sizes, Liu Ming introduced to Cui'er as she walked, "This right is the place where medicinal materials are sold and the medicine is grabbed according to the prescription, but the left is the medicine made by grandpa." Mainly gold sore medicine, cooling oil, bruising medicine and the like. ”
"Well, where is your grandfather?" Cui'er walked around the pharmacy, and saw that everything was packed up very properly, and it was like that, so she nodded and asked about Shopkeeper Liu.
"Thanks to the lady of the proprietor who sent someone to suppress the surname Jin, so that they didn't dare to come again, grandpa is making medicine later. It seems that the gold sore medicine researched before can be improved, and if it can be done, I will make some more for the owner's wife, so that you can send it to the owner. Liu Ming said, Bai Jing Sven's appearance.
"Shopkeeper Liu has a heart." Cui'er smiled when she heard this, and felt that the shopkeeper Liu's action was very much in line with her heart, so she couldn't help but nod and let Liu Ming take her to the backyard.
The courtyard where the pharmacy is located, the front is the shop, and the back is the house, and after Cui'er went out from the back door of the pharmacy, she went directly to the backyard.
There is no way to compare this backyard with the Lian family's mansion, but it is not small, Cui'er roughly estimated, just this first courtyard, there are at least 200 square meters, plus the main house and the east and west wings, it is more than enough for the two grandsons of the shopkeeper to live.
The first courtyard is where the grandfather and grandson of the shopkeeper Liu live, and the courtyard that enters the second is opened up into a small pharmaceutical workshop by the shopkeeper Liu.
At first, Cui'er didn't understand this layout, why the more private accommodation room was placed in the first courtyard, but the workshop was placed in the second courtyard. Later, it was the shopkeeper Liu who woke up the dreamer with a word, and the gold sore medicine of the shopkeeper Liu was a secret recipe, even if it was the original owner, Lord Jin, was not as good as the shopkeeper Liu.
This secret office must do a good job of secrecy, as soon as you enter the yard, there are many people, and one of them will be stolen if you can't prevent it. The shopkeeper Liu was afraid that his secret recipe would leak out, so he regarded the second courtyard as a workshop, and locked all the raw materials and tools carefully, and the heart of guarding against people was very strict.
Cui'er knew that Shopkeeper Liu cared a lot about this matter, and saw Shopkeeper Liu wearing an apron and was busy in the courtyard of Erjin, so Cui'er didn't step forward. I only greeted the shopkeeper Liu at the gate of the courtyard, and listened to him talk about the new prescription in detail, praised it, and then went home.
As soon as Cui'er's carriage entered Fuqi Hutong, Cui'er didn't wait to get off the carriage when she heard a sound of horses' hooves stomping. Cui'er lifted the curtain of the car, and saw that the person who came was none other than her eldest brother Ye Qing, who got out of the car and entered the Lian Mansion with Ye Qing.
"Dad, Cui'er, I can be regarded as finding this tea mountain, a total of 500 acres, all of which are good tea trees that can produce tea!" Ye Qing drank two full bowls of tea, and seemed to be able to ease up, so he wiped his mouth and said excitedly.
"It's great that I found Chashan!" When Master Ye and Cui'er heard the news, their eyes also lit up.
The business of his own tea house is good, and there is a large amount of tea consumed at the birthday banquet of the prince's wife, Rao is Ye family has a large tea garden in Huxi, but now there is a feeling that the water is far away and cannot quench the thirst. If there is a tea garden in the capital, this problem will be solved! (To be continued)
