Chapter 28

The Dongfang family has more than twenty shops under its name, but not all of them serve the famous families in the city. For example, those shops located in more remote locations are responsible for delivering medicinal materials to other shops.

To put it bluntly, it is just the warehouse of other shops.

People in these shops can make monthly money without having to work hard to deal with the people. To put it bluntly, they have long been used to being lazy. Now that Su Chengying suddenly wants to break this rule, no one is happy.

Dongfang Ronglu just looked at Su Chengying with a smile.

Do you really think that if you get a shop from your aunt, you can sit back and relax?
As long as Su Chengying nods and agrees and has dealings with other shops, gradually, these shops in Su Chengying's hands will be swallowed up by the eldest aunt.

After all, for a pharmacy that doesn't have regular customers and doesn't accept individual customers, it's simply impossible to establish a foothold in Shangjing.

Su Chengying did not go through business, but she was not a fool.

She still understands these simple truths.

"I understand what the shopkeepers mean, but since the eldest lady handed over the shop to me, she wants me to start my own business. If that's the case, is there any reason to turn back?" Su Chengying said lightly.

Several shopkeepers were stunned, as if they didn't expect Su Chengying to refuse.

And he refused so completely.

Dongfang Ronglu was also shocked, how dare Su Chengying refuse?
Who gave her courage!

Su Chengying paused and then said, "Actually, I have thought about reopening the shop to welcome patients a long time ago. Since we are a pharmacy, we must have an attitude of saving lives and helping the wounded. Several shopkeepers are also studying medicine, so we should also Remember to practice the art of benevolence, and you will be worthy of heaven and earth, and even more worthy of your heart."

These few sentences may seem simple, but only doctors know them.

Just because that is the creed that all doctors need to keep in mind for their entire life after becoming a doctor.

Several shopkeepers present were a little dumbfounded.

Even if Su Chengying knew how to read a ledger, how could he even know medical skills?

How did people in the prosperous Tang Dynasty raise their children, and how did they learn things that normal people would never expect?

The shopkeepers looked at me, and I looked at you, and then they all looked at Huang Qi, as if asking, does this new young boss really know how to do medicine?

Huang Qi was very reluctant to confirm what Su Chengying said, but he still nodded helplessly.

When Su Chengying gave the man some medicine and asked about his illness, he had seen it with his own eyes. Such skillful techniques and the ability to replace medicinal materials with ease would have been difficult for those who were not well versed in medical skills.

The shopkeepers suddenly felt a little panicked, but what really made them panic was behind them.

I saw Su Chengying took out a stack of contracts from her sleeves and placed them on the table in front of her. "If we manage these shops individually, the profits are unknown. This is really unfair to the shopkeepers, so I thought Now, I will share [-]% of the profit of Wujia shop with everyone. The prerequisite is that several shopkeepers must sign a death contract with me."

Shopkeepers, "..."

It felt like a pie fell from the sky, but when it hit me on the head, I realized that there were stones inside the pie.

Dongfang Ronglu didn't expect Su Chengying to be so cruel and directly tied the shopkeepers and the shop together. In this way, the shopkeepers would be willing to risk their lives to manage the business.And if she wants to continue to point fingers in the future, it will be even more difficult, because neither the eldest lady nor her mother will give up the profits of the shop.

When the interests on their side are less than those of Su Chengying, these shopkeepers naturally side with Su Chengying.

"Sister-in-law, it's easy to say this, but it's difficult to do it. My sister-in-law is from the prosperous Tang Dynasty, so how can I know the situation in Beiliang? Other medicine shops in Shangjing have long been entrenched. If my sister-in-law is really for everyone's good, she shouldn't tie up everyone. On a boat, sinking with the shop..." Dongfang Ronglu said with a worried look.

The shopkeepers who were a little excited at first became hesitant after hearing this.

Dongfang Ronglu looked at everyone and said, "I heard a few days ago that Auntie's other shops are short of manpower. Several shopkeepers are old people from our Dongfang family. If you want to go..."

At this point, Dongfang Ronglu suddenly covered her mouth and looked at Su Chengying with wide-eyed shock, "Sister-in-law, I am not sensible anymore. Shouldn't I say these things at this time..."

That expression was really innocent.

It was obviously her who was instigating the trouble, but it seemed that if Su Chengying blamed her, it would be Su Chengying's fault.

Su Chengying finally understood that Dongfang Ronglu was sitting here today just to disturb people's hearts. If she was really angry at this time, no one would care about her feelings. Everyone would just think that she was guilty.

No wonder Dongfang Ronglu was able to gain face in front of the eldest lady in her last life. She did have some tricks up her sleeve.

"Boss, I am the shopkeeper of the shop next door. My name is Zhang Ben. I want to go to the eldest lady's shop." One of the shopkeepers spoke. Although the conditions offered by Su Chengying were very tempting, he did not want to accompany Su Chengying to take risks. .

Su Chengying wasn't angry at all, she smiled and nodded, "It's a good thing that you have your own choice."

Upon seeing this, the other shopkeepers were also ready to take action.

Zhang Ben breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Boss..."

But before she could finish her words, she saw Su Chengying take out a bunch of things from her sleeves, rummaged through them carefully for a moment, then picked out one of them and raised it up and said, "Since the store under the shopkeeper Zhang, , the losses are greater than the profits, but shopkeeper Zhang takes the profit every month. I will not stop shopkeeper Zhang from leaving, but I also ask shopkeeper Zhang to give the extra monthly money together before leaving. Come back up."

Beiliang has always had strict national regulations for merchants. The merchants are forced to be strict with themselves and have formulated various rules for the stewards and clerks below.

One of them is that the shopkeeper's monthly money is divided into two types, one is the profit price, and the other is the loss price. This makes it easier for the shopkeeper to focus on earning profits for the shop.

The last time Su Chengying chatted with the Fourth Madam, she specifically inquired about the clothes of the ladies in Beijing or the famous families in Beijing, but about the rules of Beijing and the national laws of Beiliang.

Su Chengying didn't know that these questions of hers shocked the fourth lady for a long time. She only knew that if she wanted to completely establish a foothold in Shangjing and gain recognition from Shangjing, she must learn to integrate.

Zhang Ben shivered as he looked at the monthly payment he needed to make up on the list.

Other shopkeepers who still want to take action, "..."

Completely unable to move.

In order to let them help the eldest wife to make false accounts these years, the second wife has always paid them according to the monthly profit. When she first got it, she didn't think it was much, but now it's all given out, who can pay it out?
Only now did the shopkeepers realize how ruthless and powerful the young master, who was always smiling, was. He was not discussing with them, he was just here to give orders directly!
