Chapter 400: The New Owner of Baoan Tang (Asking for Tickets)
There are a total of four pharmacies in Qiantang ~ County, all of which have Langzhong sitting in the hall, among which Xu Xian is an apprentice in the security hall. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but according to the scale, the security hall is the smallest, and the big hall is the largest.
Entering the county seat, Xu Xian went home, and Qiu Ming walked directly to the security hall. An apprentice came over to ask if Qiu Ming came to ask for a doctor or to grab medicine, but Qiu Ming went straight to the shopkeeper.
"You're the treasurer of this security hall, but you're the owner?" Qiu Ming arched his hand and asked.
Shopkeeper Liu was stunned for a moment: "I'm just the shopkeeper, and there are other people in the owner's house, I don't know what this gentleman means?" ”
Ordinary trading of medicinal materials, he, the shopkeeper, can decide, this person directly to the owner, is there any big business?
"Bring your host, and say I want to buy this security hall."
As soon as the shopkeeper heard this, this matter was not for him to decide, he asked Qiu Ming to wait for a day, and he had to go to Hangzhou~Zhou City to invite the owner to come and talk about it. It takes three or four hours to come and go, and it's getting late today, so we won't be able to decide until tomorrow.
Qiu Ming found an inn to stay in the evening, and the next day, he went directly to the security hall.
"The contemptible Zhao Dongling is the owner of this security hall." Zhao Dongling was also very happy when he heard that someone wanted to buy a security hall. His ancestors were in the medicinal herb business, but now that he is in the cloth business, he has long wanted to sell this security hall, but he has never found a suitable buyer.
"My name is Qiu Ming, you can make a price." Qiu Ming didn't plan to greet him.
"Mr. Qiu, my real estate in the security hall plus medicinal materials, and so many apprentices and sitting in the hall, the price is five thousand taels of silver, this price is not expensive, right?"
Qiu Ming inquired yesterday, this price is really not expensive, it is a fair price. But he showed that he wanted to buy it, and the other party didn't increase the price?
"The price is fair, Mr. Zhao has other conditions, right?"
"Mr. Qiu is a person who understands, and you will leave behind me, the treasurer, Lang Zhong, and apprentice of the security hall. To be honest, this is our family's ancestral business, and if it weren't really busy, I really wouldn't be going to sell it. "Those people have been with him for so many years, and when he sells it, he can't let people poke his backbone.
"No problem, but I'm going to change the bookkeeper." The finance can't be repaid to the other party's old man, and he doesn't know that there is a problem with the accounts. Although he didn't plan to use this security hall to make money, he couldn't lose money.
"Mr. Qiu didn't say that I would take it with me too. There is one last condition, the plaque of the security hall cannot be moved, if you can also agree to this, you can sign the contract now. ”
It's not easy to cultivate a qualified account keeper now, and he doesn't want to leave it to Qiu Ming. The security hall is an old plaque of their home, and I hope it can still be hung here, which can be regarded as a thought in the future.
"No problem, sign the contract." Qiu Ming is still too lazy to change his name, what will it be called when the time comes, Shiyitang or Jiuzhitang?
"Mr. Qiu, my pharmacy is here, and I have the title deed and house deed with me, your silver?" I haven't seen the money yet, and I can't sign the contract.
"That's right, wait a minute." Qiu Ming opened the bag at his feet, revealing some jewels inside, "It's okay to use these to offset the bill, right?" ”
Qiu Ming didn't have much gold and silver on his body, but fortunately, he brought some jewelry this time, most of which were taken out by the palace, and all of them were fine.
"Mr. Qiu, of course this offset is no problem, but this value is going to be discounted." Zhao Dongling said shrewdly. He pulled out nine pieces of jewelry, including pearl necklaces, pearl hairpins, jade bracelets, jade wrenches and other things.
Qiu Ming looked back at the shopkeeper of the security hall with a smile: "Shopkeeper Liu, I will be your owner in the future, this is your first test, how much do you think you should pay Mr. Zhao?" ”
Zhao Dongling and Shopkeeper Liu were stunned for a moment, and then Zhao Dongling smiled bitterly and pushed the two pieces of jewelry back, Shopkeeper Liu still didn't give up, and asked Zhao Dongling to leave the working capital on the account of 500 taels, and then went to the county government to sign the contract, and the security hall was officially transferred to Qiu Ming's name.
Qiu Ming cast a small spell and also got the household registration, and he is now from Qiantang.
Qiu Ming checked it, this pharmacy is really good, Lang Zhong's medical skills are not very good, but he can also see ordinary diseases. The medicinal materials are also relatively complete, and they are all good medicinal materials, and there are some medicinal materials that should be unique to the north, and there are even reserves here.
The shopkeeper invited an account office from elsewhere, plus the previous bookkeeping apprentice, and there would be no problems with the accounts of the security hall. Qiu Ming looked at the account, it was too messy.
The purchase price, the selling price, and the loss of each medicinal material must be recorded. A package of medicines contains many kinds of medicinal materials, and some of them belong to drugs that can be prescribed by anyone, and they are counted by package.
In addition to selling medicines, Langzhong's consultation fee is income. All kinds of miscellaneous expenses, plus the expenses of Lang Zhong, the shopkeeper and other guys, this security hall is really not very profitable.
But fortunately, there is also a big mansion in the back, and Qiu Ming can be regarded as having a home. Before he leaves, he won't lose money by selling it.
Xu Xian ran to the security hall early in the morning, still holding a cake in his hand, eating as he walked. Every day he was the first of the apprentices, so he was designated as an apprentice instead of a medicine apprentice.
To put it simply, Xu Xian can read medical books and learn to see diseases, while those apprentices who grasp medicine only learn the properties of medicine, and they can't even diagnose the pulse, so it is impossible to become Langzhong.
"Shopkeeper, why did we set off firecrackers in the security hall early this morning?" Xu Xian asked with his little brain melon on his back. Today is not a holiday, is it a happy event for the owner?
"Xu Xian, our security hall has changed to a new owner, isn't this going to set off firecrackers. But don't worry, you can still do an apprenticeship here. Go ahead, clean the door, and then you can go to Ma Langzhong. ”
An apprentice like Xu Xian has no monthly money, but only takes care of one meal a day in the pharmacy, and then you have to work for others, what you can get is the opportunity to learn skills.
Children from poor families don't even have the opportunity to be apprentices like this, and I wish the children could earn money sooner. That is, Xu Jiaorong's parents left some money and real estate, and Xu Jiaorong knew how to do needlework, so they were able to support their sister and brother.
"Shopkeeper, is the new owner fierce?" Xu Xian asked curiously.
"Not fierce, very kind person, it is said that the family was originally in the medicinal herb business, and then I don't know why I didn't do it, and now I have returned to my hometown and made an old business."
Xu Xianxiao's face was full of curiosity, his family was originally in the medicinal herb business, why did he feel as if he had heard this statement?
"Oh, see, that's our new owner, and I haven't seen the new owner yet." When Shopkeeper Liu saw Qiu Ming, he hurriedly walked out from behind the counter to greet him.
Hey? What is Xu Xian doing, when he sees the new owner, don't you know how to call someone? A child who used to look quite clever, why is he so stupid today, is he trying to be driven away by the new owner?
Xu Xian was stunned in place, the new owner, how could it be Brother Qiu!
