Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 49
"It's not good, it's not good!"

Zhao Min, who was taking the patient's pulse, saw Xiao Shitou running in from the outside, yelling, and couldn't help saying a few reproachful words to him: "What's the fuss, didn't you see that there are so many patients here? "

Xiao Shitou also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and followed Ming Yaoguang to the back hall before telling him the news he had just received.

"It's not good, boss, Fu Shaolin's pharmacy has hired people to shout at the door! Their medicines are lower than ours. I think many people have already gone to their pharmacy."

Compared with Xiao Shitou panicked, Ming Yaoguang looked much calmer. He lowered his eyes, opened the fan and shook it gently twice, as if he was thinking about something and didn't speak.

Little Shitou was in a hurry: "Boss, please say something! What should we do?"

"What should I do?" Listening to Xiao Shitou's question, Ming Yaoguang frowned, and closed his fan: "Nothing to do, let them torment."

After speaking, Ming Yaoguang left to attend to other things, leaving the little stone sluggishly in place, why are you not in a hurry?
The number of people who came to see the doctor today was indeed not as large as the ones who came to see the doctor before. After noon, Zhao Min finished seeing all the people who came to see the doctor.

Seeing that his master was free, Xiao Shitou told her everything he found out this morning.

Who knew that after listening to the project, she was even calmer than Ming Yaoguang. She just nodded while eating the steamed stuffed bun, and said, "Oh, I see."

This made Xiaoshi even more stunned.

After swallowing his saliva, Xiao Shitou looked at Zhao Min who was so calm, and couldn't help asking the question in his heart: "Master, why are you and the boss not in a hurry to hear these news? Too much."

Zhao Min sighed, and after swallowing the last mouthful of buns in his mouth, he looked at Xiaoshi with earnestness.

"Little Stone, since you became my apprentice this time, I have taught you the second truth."

When Xiao Shitou heard that his master was going to teach him the truth again, he nodded hurriedly and listened carefully.

"Our pharmacy has kept the cost of the medicine to the lowest. If the price of the Fu family is lower than ours, it can only show that they are operating at a loss."

Seeing that Xiao Shitou still looked confused, Zhao Min patiently explained to him: "Every store requires costs, if you make more money than you spend, you are losing money, right? "

After saying this, Xiao Shitou instantly understood, and nodded, "Yes, that's right, master, but what does it matter?"

Zhao Min knocked on Xiao Shitou's head: "You, why are you so unresponsive?"

After glancing at him dotingly, Zhao Min continued: "In a normal competitive relationship, it is absolutely impossible to compete by lowering prices. If the other party's price is low, we also blindly lower our price, then in the end, both sides must be hurt, so when we meet We don't care about this situation, let them keep the price down, we just need to do our part, they won't last long."

After speaking, Zhao Min ate his steamed stuffed bun with relish.

In fact, Xiao Shitou still doesn't quite understand what Zhao Min said just now, but he understands the last sentence: They won't last long.

Does that mean we will win?Thinking of this in Xiao Shitou's heart, most of the worries in his heart disappeared immediately.

He believed what Zhao Min said unconditionally. Since the master said to let them go, don't worry about it, then he doesn't have to worry about it.

After Xiao Shitou figured it out, he swept away the haze in his heart, regained his former vitality, and went to the back to help with work.

After Zhao Min had eaten and drank enough, it seemed that no one would come again this afternoon, so he told Ming Yaoguang and went home early.

"Master, the temptations over there are becoming more and more frequent."

Gu Po leaned slightly and stood in front of Gu Lingqing. After saying this, she looked up at him with a bad expression.

Gu Lingqing was also constantly rubbing her fingers, thinking in her heart: "Indeed, I'm afraid they have already become suspicious about the cause of the spy's death."

Gu Po lowered her head, as if she had made a decision in her heart, and when she raised her head again, she expressed her thoughts.

"Master, they will find out sooner or later. Before that, we'd better find another safe place and hide for a while."

Gu Lingqing pondered for a while, tapped her fingers on the table, thinking about the feasibility of the matter proposed by Gu Po, and finally nodded: "Okay, but..."

Hearing the turning point in Gu Lingqing's tone, Gu Po quickly raised her head to look at him, waiting for his next words.

Gu Lingqing spoke slowly, expressing his worries: "We are leaving, how should Zhao Min be settled?"

Gu Po was taken aback, but she didn't expect this. If she wanted to leave this place and hide for a while, she would have to go to a place not close by, and she might encounter various unknown dangers along the way.

The young master and himself both know kung fu, so it's easier to avoid the spy's eyeliner.

But... if Zhao Min is brought along, the situation will be different. Zhao Min does not know martial arts. Objectively speaking, bringing her along is undoubtedly a burden.

Thinking of this, Gu Po frowned, not knowing what to do.

Gu Po has been with Zhao Min for so long, and she already has feelings for her in her heart.If she is left here like this, I really can't rest assured.

However, if Zhao Min can have a stable job and have financial resources, Mrs. Gu can safely leave Zhao Min alone.

"Master, these few days..."

"Gu Po, I'm back!"

Before Po Gu finished speaking, she heard Zhao Min's voice from the yard. Gu Lingqing gave her a wink, Gu Po quickly stopped talking, turned around and went out to meet her: "Why did you come back so early today?" ?”

Zhao Min unloaded the burden on his body: "Business is not very good today, so I came back early."

Gu Po was not suspicious of Zhang Min's words, Zhao Min glanced behind Gu Po, and saw Gu Lingqing standing up from the chair, glanced at her with a complicated expression, and then walked inside up.

Zhao Min pursed her lips, not understanding what that look in his eyes meant: "Cut, I don't know what I'm doing all day in the house, sneaking around."

"What did you say?" Gu Po listened to Zhao Min whispering beside her, but she didn't understand what she was saying.

"It's nothing! It's nothing!" Zhao Min quickly waved his hand and laughed twice, "I'm going to fetch water!"

Looking at the back of Zhao Min running away, Gu Po laughed: "This child!"
