Chapter 20: I can't use my talents

Thanking the kindness of the diligent female shopkeeper, Shen Lingxi thought about his thoughts and walked all the way back to his medicinal herb shop.

After a morning of hot sales, there are fewer customers in the store at this time, but from time to time there are still customers who rush to buy medicinal herbs after hearing the news, of course, most of them will go to those lottery numbers.

"How is Shopkeeper Qin, the sales are going well, right?" Shen Lingxi walked up to Shopkeeper Qin, who was settling accounts, and asked.

"Back to the young master's words, hehe, today this morning, our store has to sell about three thousand taels of medicinal materials, but most of these are backlogged in previous years, and they are all processed at a loss. However, some other medicinal materials were still sold, and in general, we were able to clear the inventory, which still brought us more liquidity. ”

Although the sales situation is indeed hot, it is mainly about clearing inventory, and it is also a loss in terms of profits.

However, this does feel completely different for Shen Lingxi, there is no cost for her to take over this medicinal herb store, and she can revitalize thousands of taels of liquidity, which will become her capital to become bigger and stronger in the future.

"Don't worry about this, first clear out all the medicinal materials in the inventory that have lost their efficacy, at today's rate, how many days will it take to sell them all?"

Shopkeeper Qin touched his white beard, and then flipped through the account book before saying: "According to this morning's sales method, the inventory will be sold out in two days, but I think that the more this goes on, the hot sales like today's may not be easy to appear, and of course there will continue to be inexplicable people." ”

Shen Lingxi thought about it, and also agreed with the opinion of the shopkeeper Qin, a hot sales situation like today's may not be easy to appear again tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

"So, if you want to clear these stocks, it will take at least five or six days, right?"

"Well, I think it's about the same, and didn't the young master write a tearful sale for ten days. We have already completed the goal ahead of schedule, how to say that it is still Master Lingxi's idea, so that there is such a sales situation, the young master is really a business genius. The shopkeeper Qin discussed the business situation with Shen Lingxi, and did not forget to take pictures of the sycophants from time to time.

Shen Lingxi glanced at this loyal old shopkeeper, but he didn't expect that the shopkeeper Qin, who looked honest, was still a sycophant.

"Well, of course, it's just that since we said that the tear sale is ten days, that's ten days. In this way, Shopkeeper Qin, you wait for our backlog of medicinal materials to be almost cleared, and then go and purchase some more commonly used medicinal materials and come back to sell them. The price, just according to the purchase price plus a little profit, the price is still said to be a seven-fold discount, we have a small profit but quick turnover. Shen Lingxi said with a serious face.

Shopkeeper Qin also agrees with the young master's idea, since the inventory is sold at a loss, then the goods that are purchased again must add some profits to it.

"Okay, Young Master Lingxi. You can rest assured, I will let the guys shout hard in the past ten days, and strive to clear the inventory and make some losses at the same time. Shopkeeper Qin had a serious face, and assured Shen Lingxi as if he was giving a military order.

Shen Lingxi saw that the old shopkeeper was very enthusiastic and nodded with satisfaction.

"I'll do this for the first ten days, and after ten days, I have a new idea. ”

With a loyal old shopkeeper like Shopkeeper Qin under him, Shen Lingxi is still very relieved.

The matter of the medicinal herb shop had basically been arranged, and Shen Lingxi did not continue to stay in the medicinal herb shop, so he got into the carriage and went back to Shen's mansion.

Back at the Shen Mansion, Shen Lingxi rubbed her eyes and wanted to take a nap, after all, in order to go to Dongshi early in the morning, she got up too early today.

As soon as I returned to the courtyard where the second room was located, I saw Hu Tao waiting at the gate of the courtyard.

"What's the matter, Hu Tao, didn't I get it right?" Shen Lingxi felt that Hu Tao was looking at him a little strangely recently.

"No, the young master is nothing! The maid just felt that the young master had changed a little! The maid was originally worried about the young master's cultivation, but she didn't expect that the young master was a rare cultivation genius. Today, Madame is still worried about the medicinal herb shop for the young master, afraid that the young master will mess up the already bad business as soon as he goes. But I didn't expect it...... The young master is really powerful, and he is a genius in everything!" Hu Tao, a teenage maid, now looks at her as a little master, the more happy she becomes, and she feels that the young master can be impressive in everything she does.

"Yes, then it might be a little!" Shen Lingxi deliberately pretended to be forced.

Hu Tao turned out to be because of these things, and now he seems to worship himself a little, no wonder Hu Tao has been looking at himself wrongly recently. Lingxi thought that she was a daughter and was found out by Hu Tao, which was really shocked.

"By the way, young master, Madame said that when the servant saw you coming back, she told you to go to Madame's. ”

"Oh, got it. Shen Lingxi waved his hand and motioned for Hu Tao to get busy by himself, so he walked to the main house where the cheap lady lived.

"Bang bang bang...... Mother, I'm back. Did you call me? Shen Lingxi asked while banging on the door.

"Come in. ”

Shen Ziyan heard that Lingxi was back, so she spoke up.

Shen Lingxi pushed open the door and walked in, and saw that the cheap lady was sitting and looking through a thick pile of account books, with a solemn expression on her face and her brows tightened.

"Mother, do you have anything to do? Today I went to the medicine store in the East Market for a long morning, and now I'm a little tired. It was true that Shen Lingxi was a little sleepy, so he was not polite and sat on the chair next to Shen Ziyan.

Shen Ziyan raised her eyes and looked at Shen Lingxi, who was a little tired, and saw that she was indeed a little listless, so she smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, let's go and rest later......!" Unexpectedly, my son gave Weiniang another surprise. I also sent someone to your medicinal herb shop this morning to take a look, that originally lifeless medicinal herb shop, just messed around by you, there is such a good business, it seems that you are going to make a lot of money today!"

Shen Lingxi pouted and said: "What makes a lot of money, today is a big loss, although it sells a lot, but it is all at a loss." It's not that my mother doesn't know that the medicinal materials in this store have been put away for so long, and the medicinal effect has been lost a little, if it weren't for me to find a way, no one would have wanted it at all. ”

Shen Ziyan nodded and said, "Well, it seems that my son really has a way, it is a material for doing business, not bad......"

Shen Ziyan glanced at Shen Lingxi and saw that there was no smug look on her face, so she paused and said, "Originally, I was ready for my mother, but you would have caused the medicinal herb store to close." I didn't expect you to have a lot of ghost ideas, and such a lifeless shop was revived by you. In this way, if you can do a good job in this herb shop, I will give you another grain store here for my mother, are you interested?"

Shen Lingxi bounced up from his chair as soon as he heard this, as if he was suddenly energetic, and quickly nodded: "Interested, interested, I'm worried that this medicinal herb shop won't be able to display my talent...... Mother, you are really timely rain!"

Shen Lingxi knew that her recent performance had impressed the cheap lady and the people around her, so she simply pretended to be forced to the end, and more importantly, she was very short of money now, and she could buy her favorite alchemy furnace with more than 100,000 taels, and she still had a long way to go!

In fact, Shen Ziyan is not good at business at all, there are not many industries in these hands, but they are not doing very well, plus she plans to buy pills for Shen Lingxi to help cultivate, so there are more places to spend money.

She urgently needs the industry in her hand to flourish now, and she was worried about these business matters, but the person who sent it out said that the young master's medicinal herb shop has more than ten times more customers today.

Seeing that the eight-year-old Lingxi had given that medicinal herb shop a new lease of life almost overnight, Shen Ziyan was now beginning to blindly trust Lingxi's royal orthodox bloodline. I feel that the original playful and lazy Lingxi actually seems to be quite talented no matter what he does.
