Liu Haojia said: "Originally, the official wanted to tell you, but the official knew that your owner had just arrived in the morning, so he asked him to come and talk to me." ”

As soon as the shopkeeper was about to speak, Liu Haojia said: "Let's talk about it after thinking about it!" If you dare to say he's not there, I'll turn around and leave!" In the future, if there is any difference in Baohetang, don't blame the official for not giving you a chance! ”

Since Liu Haojia has chosen Baohetang as one of Liwei's targets, he naturally wants to investigate carefully. So he kept sending people to keep an eye on it, and their owner came to Baohetang today to check the accounts, and this matter was directly sent to Liu Haojia's desk.

The shopkeeper naturally knew that his own affairs could not escape the eyes and ears of Jinyiwei, so he could only go back and invite his own owner. Before leaving, he also instructed the guys not to offend Jinyiwei.

A moment later, the shopkeeper cautiously accompanied a middle-aged man with an unhappy face out of the door. This middle-aged man is the real owner of Baohetang, one of the principals of the Zhao family, Zhao Kangyuan! All the big and small matters of Baohetang are handled by him.

Under his management, although Baohetang has not expanded as much as in the early years, it has also firmly maintained its current position, which shows that this person also has some ability!

However, this person didn't seem to be in a good mood, and Liu Haojia didn't give a salute when he arrived, and said directly: "What is this adult looking for?" ”

Liu Haojia looked him up and down and suddenly said, "Do you have an official position?" ”

Zhao Kangyuan was stunned when he heard this, and then said suspiciously: "In Xia Nai, he is an ordinary man, so he naturally has no official position. ”

Liu Haojia said coldly: "Since you have no official body, how dare you stand upright and talk to me?" ”

Zhao Kangyuan was furious when he heard this! He just wanted to open his mouth to argue, but when he saw Liu Haojia's cold gaze, his heart shrank for a while! Then he thought about it, this matter was his own mistake, a white body standing in front of the official and talking is a mistake in itself, if he talks back, I am afraid that it will be a mistake on top of a mistake! I'm afraid someone is going to take advantage of the topic to play!

So he hesitated again and again to pay homage. While visiting the shrine again, I still thought in my heart, after today's pass, I must go to donate an official tomorrow!

Seeing that he bowed, Liu Haojia didn't embarrass him. After he finished worshipping, he let him get up, and then said: "This official has always been lenient, so I will not pursue this fault, so you have to pay attention next time!" ”

Zhao Kangyuan was even more angry when he heard this, but he could only agree. Liu Haojia immediately said: "You know about Jinyiwei's collection of monthly silver from Baohetang, why don't you pay it?" ”

Zhao Kangyuan craned his neck and said: "There is no name for the silver, how to pay it, 30 taels of silver a month!" ”

Liu Haojia said with a smile: "Do you know why you only need 30 taels of silver a month here?" Because you are here to heal and save people, you are especially preferred! You might as well ask your neighbors how much they pay a month? ”

Zhao Kangyuan said: "Since adults know that Baohetang is a place to treat diseases and save people, they shouldn't charge us monthly silver!" If this money is used to buy medicine for poor people, I don't know how many people will be saved! ”

Zhao Kangyuan's words triggered a whisper of approval among the onlookers. And Liu Haojia knows that Baohetang will indeed waive the money of several poor families for medicine every month. During the disaster year, he also held free clinics, donated food and medicinal materials, and had a good reputation among Beijing.

Liu Haojia listened to the discussions of the surrounding people, and then looked at Zhao Kangyuan, who was secretly proud, and smiled, and said: "If you want to use such skills to suppress me, you have good intentions!" But I'm afraid you're using the wrong means! ”

Zhao Kangyuan said without yin or yang: "I don't dare, I'm afraid that the official will think too much!" ”

Liu Haojia turned his head left and right to look at the surrounding people with angry eyes, then turned his head and said loudly: "I said that you are here to treat diseases and save people to give you face, but I don't want you to think that this is boasting capital!" Don't you take money when you sell medicines? Isn't your Baohetang business? You're just curing diseases in exchange for money, it's just a different kind of business! ”

The surrounding people suddenly fell silent when they heard this, and they all thought about Liu Haojia's words, and felt that what he said made sense! But before they could figure it out, Liu Haojia said loudly again: "In addition, this official will help you settle the account!" Your Baohetang does have the behavior of giving free medicine. But the official has counted that you don't send more than ten taels of silver every month, can the official be wrong? ”

When Zhao Kangyuan heard this, his sideburns immediately saw sweat! To tell the truth, the order that no more than 10 taels of silver per month could be delivered was given by him, just to get a good name. And he didn't expect that someone would actually count these numbers, so he was a little confused!

And the surrounding people are not stupid, and they immediately reacted that Baohetang's big business has a limit on the number of medicines delivered every month, which is naturally used to buy reputation. So my impression of Baohetang suddenly became bad!

After all, these people don't know what to think about deeds, they just feel that the purpose of Baohetang's good deeds is not pure, and they don't like it in their hearts!

Then Liu Haojia continued to say loudly: "And the price of your Baohetang medicine is also very problematic!" Take ligustrum as an example, it is only 27 yuan per catty for you to buy ligustrum dry goods, but when you sell it out, it costs 135, which is close to five times the profit, which is really high enough! “

When the surrounding people heard this, there was another uproar! To tell the truth, they really didn't expect that Baohetang, who flaunts his wonderful hands and benevolence every day, would actually make such a big profit when selling medicines! Five times the profit, it is definitely a profiteer!

Zhao Kangyuan not only sweated on his sideburns at this time, but even sweat oozed from his forehead! But he still quibbled loudly: "Some of our medicines are very expensive and sold at a loss, otherwise many people can't afford to eat them!" Therefore, part of the profit from selling drugs at high prices is to make up for that part of the shortfall! ”

Liu Haojia said: "Okay, you can tell which drugs are sold at a loss, and the official will help you check the accounts!" ”

Liu Haojia saw that he was silent, so he said sharply: "It seems that you are fooling this official as those foolish officials!" Do you really think that this official doesn't know? You say that those expensive medicines are sold at a loss, it's just nonsense! Those expensive medicines are sold at a loss, and ordinary people can't afford them, only those big families who don't care about money can afford them! If you dare to say that those expensive drugs lose money, today this official will really show you the account! If it's wrong, I'll pay you thirty taels a month! ”
