Chapter 187: Why torture each other
"Don't mention it, let's talk about something else."
Liu Shengsheng drank all the wine in his hand, his face full of sadness.
Mu Qingqing said helplessly: "I really don't understand you, you obviously like each other, why do you want to torture each other? Like I couldn't help it, but you are both husband and wife, why ......
"Who likes him?"
Liu Shengsheng rolled his eyes.
Mu Qingqing smiled, "Look at your lost soul, you still don't admit it? If you don't like him, why are you getting drunk here?"
Liu Shengsheng put down his wine glass, "I'm just feeling uncomfortable, where is the lost soul?"
"Isn't it enough to lose your soul?"
Mu Qingqing held her chin and looked at her with a smile, "You shouldn't have realized your heart, right?"
When she said this, Liu Shengsheng suddenly felt uncomfortable, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm just, I'm just sighing at Nan Luochen, he is now being demoted to a commoner, or because of me, I am blaming myself."
"People will be princes in the end, so why should you blame yourself? I think you're just falling in love and not knowing it, hee-hee."
Saying this, Mu Qingqing said again: "By the way, that Yizhou has been waiting for you, and he has been waiting for several days, saying that he has something important to discuss with you, so go upstairs."
Liu Shengsheng nodded, and soon came to the private room upstairs.
As soon as he saw her, Yizhou hurriedly stepped forward, "You can be counted as coming, if you don't come again, I thought you gave up."
"Something's wrong."
Hearing this, Yizhou nodded a little heavily, "I heard."
Liu Shengsheng found a place to sit down, "Say, what are you looking for me?"
"It's the things you told us to do before, now we have done it, there are about fifty pharmacies, distributed in major cities, but now we are just looking for a good storefront, although it has been opened, but there are not many medicines, because Liu Lao can't get so many medicines for a while, so now the business is very average."
After a pause, Yizhou said again:
"But Liu Lao's side has asked the workers to expedite production, and all my people have been dispatched, and the branches have gone to all parts of the country, according to what you said, the weak are divided into more than 20 groups, and the other 20 or so pharmacies are guarded by only one person, some shops have no business, and some shops are too busy, during this time, the big guys are in a hurry, they are all doing business for the first time, and they always feel that they have to lose money."
"It's like this at the beginning, but the main thing is to persevere." Liu Shengsheng said.
Yizhou nodded, "Your idea is very good, at least now the brothers have stabilized, and there is no one from the imperial court to hunt us down again, although the business is not good, but at least the brothers' lives have been saved."
"But after opening so many stores at once, our brothers are afraid that they won't be able to manage it, so in the past few days, they have found four cronies, and the people below have been divided into four groups, which are in charge of those four cronies, and I just want to tell you today."
Liu Shengsheng nodded, "This is a good idea, you can just look at it, is there anything else?"
Yizhou nodded.
"What's more, the silver you gave us is basically paid for rent, although there is no money for labor, but the big guys have to eat, after the No Enemies Gang was exterminated, most of the silver saved by the brothers before was seized by the imperial court, and everyone only had a little left, barely enough to eat a few meals."
"Although Liu Lao's medicine has not collected our money for the time being, if the business has not been good, I am afraid that the medicine will not be sold in the future, and we will not be able to afford the money for the purchase, and the brothers will have to go hungry......
After a pause, Yizhou continued: "Of course, there is good news, as far as the medical beauty products you have researched are sold very well in every store, but the speed of production by workers cannot keep up, and you need to find more workers to make them.
After listening to his words, Liu Shengsheng immediately understood everything.
It turned out that he came to get his own funds.
"It just so happens that I have a box of gold here, which should be able to solve the problem of eating for the big guy, and the payment from Liu Lao's side can also be settled together, and there is still a surplus after the settlement
You go find someone to build a factory to produce the aesthetic products that I'm researching, but try to be quiet, low-key, and don't let too many people find out."
When Yizhou heard this, his brows instantly relaxed, "That's great."
Liu Shengsheng sat down at the table and wrote down several prescriptions.
"You take these prescriptions to Liu Lao, let him dispense them according to the prescription, and create a new batch of scar removal cream, the rivers and lakes have no eyes, and there are many people with scars on their bodies, the medicinal effect of my scar removal cream is better than the general ones, it should be able to sell well, and the other is lip balm, Liu Lao must understand it as a miracle doctor, after you give it to him, let him step up the production."
"Good!"
Yizhou nodded heavily, and said, "That box of gold......
"I'll personally send it to this gentleman again, and you can come and get it then."
As Yizhou nodded and left, Liu Shengsheng finally returned downstairs to continue drinking.
Mu Qingqing found her excitedly, "Sen'er, shall I take you to see the two newly opened branches?" I followed your idea and joined the show in the tavern, and now it's crowded every day, but it's hot." c
Liu Shengsheng smiled, "Just call me Shengsheng in the future, now that everyone knows my identity, there is no need to call me Sen'er."
Mu Qingqing scratched his head, "I can't change it all of a sudden, hehe."
Liu Shengsheng went out of the house as a princess, so there were always guards outside, and when they arrived at the newly opened branch, no one dared to stop them, although the store was crowded, they still came to the elegant seat on the second floor unimpeded.
Sitting on the second floor, you can clearly see the performance on the stage on the first floor, some people play the piano, some people dance, the beauties dance on the stage, and the surrounding guests drink wine one by one, and the business is not hot.
Liu Shengsheng was just drinking alone, obviously still not happy.
Seeing her like this, Mu Qingqing also felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, "Don't drink it, if you drink it again, you will get drunk."
Liu Shengsheng put down his wine glass, "I may be drunk, go back first."
Mu Qingqing helped her downstairs with a worried face, "Really, I used to blame me for borrowing wine to kill my sorrows, but now I am more worried than me......
Liu Shengsheng hurriedly said, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not worried at all."
"Yes, yes, you're not worried, so why do you drink so much?"
"You know what? You don't understand anything."
"How do you understand if you don't tell me?"
"You don't understand what I said."
Mu Qingqing: "......"
"Don't be silent, then I ask you, do you have a man you hate? You only have what you like, right?"
Mu Qingqing helped her out of the tavern door, "Of course there is, who doesn't have a nasty person? I haven't told you about it yet, but I used to be very popular, right?"
"It's just that there was a super nasty person who also wanted to pursue me, that person had a fat head and big ears, and a dead face, a seventeen or eighteen boy looked like an uncle of thirty-seven or eight, and ran to the Houfu every day to pester me, and then I took someone to beat me before it stopped, you don't know how annoying that person is, he still wants to propose marriage to me, disgusting to death."
Liu Shengsheng stopped, his expression suddenly serious, "Then if one day, that man becomes very beautiful and handsome, exactly the type you like, will you change your opinion of him?"
