Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 355 Trip to Foshan ([-])

Liu San didn't know where this Gongjitang came from, but seeing Yang Shixiang's face changing, he thought it was not a good place to go.I just heard him say: "Brother! It's not that you don't know the medicines of Gongjitang. How can you use fine goods like borneol and musk? Wouldn't these two kinds of proprietary medicines be ruined if they went there? What else can they sell?" Come? I also need to ask my brother to help me a lot."

"It's not big brother, I won't help," Yang Shiyi kept laughing, "It's really hard to break the ancestral precept."

"Could it be that my little brother is also an outsider?!" Yang Shixiang couldn't bear it.

This time he was severely defeated.The ancients paid the most attention to "kinship, benevolence and righteousness" in the clan. Yang Shixiang is not only an outsider, but also an authentic close relative. Although he is far away, his status in the clan is not low.He wanted to sell off-the-shelf medicines on consignment, and if Yang Shiyi used the fact that he had to be cautious when buying medicines in the store as an excuse, others would have nothing to say; if he used "ancestral teachings" as an excuse, he would be eating his own words.

"It's serious, it's serious!" Yang Shiyi was extremely embarrassed, and had nothing to say for a while, so he could only evade, "Let's discuss this matter again, and then discuss it! The elders want to see my brother, and I haven't seen them for many years. Let's invite him first." Let's meet at the back house."

Seeing that this cousin had no room to turn around, Yang Shixiang had no choice but to stand up and follow him into the inner house.Liu San didn't want to go with him, so a servant came and asked him to come to the living room to meet him. Liu San thought that instead of sitting and waiting alone, he might as well sit in the hall of the pharmacy outside and learn more about the local customs.So the servant led him out, and he was still sitting in the guest room in the lobby outside.

Liu Sanku sat bored, thinking that his calculation was still wrong.I thought this method of using cash to buy raw materials to attract feelings, and then asking for consignment sales was a "win-win" idea, and the other party would definitely accept it, but I didn't expect it to be wishful thinking-everything in the world can fall into my own calculations of.

If the consignment cannot be negotiated, the sales of Chinese patent medicines in the mainland can only be developed by relying on the Guangzhou station. They have already opened a lot of industries, and the pharmacy is too big. Not too loose.

However, Yang Shiyi proposed to sell the name of "Gongjitang" as an agent, but from what Yang Shixiang said, this name is very unbearable. I don't know the specific situation. If it is a small name, you can also consider it. Supported by the Time Traveling Group...

While thinking silently, a guy came to add water, Liu San called him: "Brother, I want to ask you something."

"My lord, please tell me."

"Where is Gongji Hall?"

The man was taken aback, and asked back, "Master, how do you know about this place?"

"Just heard. Is it your semicolon?"

"My lord, that's a complicated thing to say," said the man.It turns out that "Gongjitang" is a semicolon of "Yang Run Kaitang Deji".This semicolon is different from ordinary semicolons. First of all, it is jointly funded by all the "Xijia" of the whole "Yang Run Kai Tang De Ji", that is, the employees. Regardless of the level, everyone from the chief executive to the apprentice , three taels of silver per person.If you can't afford it, you can deduct it from your salary year by year.The profits earned are distributed equally to all "Xijia", which is regarded as a kind of employee welfare. The goods sold in "Gongjitang" are all inferior products eliminated from the medicinal materials sold in "Yang Runkaitang Deji", so the prices are cheap, and they are very popular among poor people.

"...'Gongjitang' is located next door to our shop, and it specializes in retail sales, and also handles wholesale sales from small township drug dealers."

"That's right." Liu San knew why Yang Shixiang was unwilling to sell the medicine in "Gongjitang".This is not a grade at all!

While talking, I only heard a burst of noise in the yard, and some people began to watch under the steps in front of the main hall.

"Everyone, don't watch it, don't watch it." Someone in charge had already come out to maintain order.

"What's going on?" Liu San couldn't see clearly and asked the buddy.

"Someone probably suffered from heat stroke." The man sighed. "It's not too hot now. In June, there will be a few people suffering from heat stroke in the yard every day."

"Why?" Liu Sanqi asked, could it be that the yard where Yang Run opened the hall is particularly prone to heatstroke?

"This is also a little kindness of the shopkeeper of our medicine store," the clerk pointed to the two mat sheds set up in the yard, "on one side is the withered grass tea brewed by ourselves in our store, which is specially given to the customers who come to wait for the medicine; on the other side, there is The "Ping An Soup" for cowardice is specially cured of heat, filth and evil. There are poor people, beggars on the street, and workers in the foundry who are infected with the epidemic and have no money to treat and take medicine. They come here to drink a bowl of "Ping An" Soup'. But some people are already seriously infected, and they still have seizures after drinking it, and they can't breathe, so they lose their lives. Alas!"

"So that's the case." Liu San nodded. Is the sense of social responsibility in the traditional Chinese medicine industry still good? Continue to drink tea——suddenly he remembered, isn't this a good opportunity to promote his own medicine?

He quickly stood up and walked a few steps to the bottom of the steps.I saw a big man lying in the mat shed, he seemed to be only in his early twenties, and he was considered tall in this time and space, with a full height of 1.7 meters.Physically strong.Wearing ragged clothes of an indistinguishable color, with a rope wrapped around his waist, his feet were bare, and his face was ashamed.There is a wooden stick and a broken bag beside me.It was simply the standard attire of a beggar in Ming Dynasty.

Liu San found it strange that this man had a strong body, not like a beggar who had been struggling with hunger for a long time, but his face was haggard and yellow, and he was obviously malnourished, obviously it was not a disguise.

No matter what kind of person he is, this person is now lying on a broken straw mat, he is already exhaling a lot, taking in a little, his teeth are clenched, and his face is pale.Liu San reached out and touched his forehead.

"This master—" The guard next to him hurriedly stopped him.

"I'm a doctor!" Liu San said in a deep voice.The man fell silent.The soy sauce crowd who were watching the excitement around saw a doctor appearing to diagnose and treat the beggar, and they all fell silent.

His forehead was covered with cold sweat.Liu San took the pulse, the pulse was sinking and weak.He asked the guy in charge of applying medicine:

"Did this person fall to the ground suddenly?"

"Yes, he ordered a bowl of Ping'an soup, and just after taking a few sips..."

Liu San nodded, this is a critical situation when the Sha is closed inside and the Qi is released outside.It is very easy to die if you do not rescue.According to the treatment mode of traditional Chinese medicine, at this time, it should be closed and solidified. First, use Tongguan Powder to blow into the nasal orifice, and then sneeze to clear the closure.

Liu San didn't have Tongguan powder in his hand, but he had Zhuge Xingjun powder, so he quickly took it out, poured some on paper, and blew it gently through the beggar's nasal cavity.

The medicine was really effective, as soon as the medicine was injected, the patient had a reaction almost immediately, the body began to move, and the eyelids opened.

"Wake up! Wake up!" The people around screamed.Liu San pressed his Renzhong and Neiguan acupoints with his fingers, and when he saw that his mind was completely clear, he told the waiter at the side: "Feed him some water!" Then he got up.

A lot of onlookers have already gathered beside him, asking him what is the name of this medicine?Where is it available.Someone was so anxious that he simply asked him to sell him the medicine around him.

"Fathers and folks." Liu San tuan bowed and said in his crappy Cantonese vernacular, "I, Liu San, just arrived in your place today. This medicine is called Zhuge Xingjun San, and I prepared it myself. Keep safe on your body, everyone wants to buy it, I am really in trouble—"

Advertising in other people's territory should be done in moderation.Just explain the name of the medicine and the name of the person.At that time, the common people will naturally follow their plans to find out what to do.

Liu San bowed again, explained again, and said several times before the crowd dispersed slowly.Liu San's confidence soared—there is a huge market for summer heat medicines like Zhuge Xingjun San.

While he was feeling proud, he saw Yang Shixiang coming out from the inside, looking not very active - obviously there was nothing good to gain from going inside.

Back at the inn, Yang Shixiang said: "Brother Liu, I'm afraid that the matter of asking 'Yang Run to open the hall' as a consignment will not be implemented. My cousin, you have seen it too, he is very smart!"

Liu San nodded: "Still disagree?"

"It's not considered a serious rejection. It's just going around in circles, I don't know what the idea is." Yang Shixiang took the hand towel sent by the servant, wiped it, and drank a cup of herbal tea, "Brother Liu, your ticket is Where did it come from?"

"Of course it's Guangzhou, isn't it written Guangzhou Delong Bank?"

"Delong, hehe, it's probably the property of your Australians. The Delong grain store also has food tickets." Yang Shixiang smiled, "My elder brother doesn't care much about consignment sales, so he keeps asking about the tickets. Where did I come from. Ask your whereabouts again."

"What did you say?"

"Ticket, of course, means that the customer has to pay a deposit." Yang Shixiang laughed at himself, "If you kill him, he won't believe that I have 50 taels of cash to use. As for you, I just say that you are a newcomer to Lingao A doctor with excellent medical skills. Judging by his appearance, I don’t seem to believe it.”

"There may be a turning point in this matter." Liu San thought, Yang Shiyi still has a good eye, and he can see the main point at a glance.It seems that the consignment business is not yet hopeless, and if we can make good use of the reputation accumulated by Guangzhou and Guangdong, it may be successful.

"Can there be a turning point? I think we'd better pack it up and go home when the goods are ready tomorrow."

While talking, Huang Tianyu also came back. He took Chen Tong around Foshan this afternoon, and invited an inn clerk to be a guide to see the handicraft industry in Foshan.By the way, see if there is any manpower that can be brought back.Compared with Liu San and the others, Huang Tianyu gained much more in this half day.

He went to several foundries, and went to several ceramic kilns.I saw a large number of civilian utensils such as bells, tripods, and incense burners being cast, and there were also many artillery pieces--I heard that the imperial court was supplying large-scale castings of cannons in Guangdong to Liaodong because of the brittleness of iron in Guangdong. Many foundries were too busy.
