Chapter Ninety-Seven: Pushing Forward
Of course, County Magistrate Li could have shown his authority and ordered the coffin shop to be closed directly. But the problem happened to Ye Chunqiu. The social relationship between Ye Chunqiu made County Magistrate Li a little confused. Moreover, the money sold by the shop was also filled into the public treasury, so it would be better to fall into his pocket. Why do you have to turn against Ye Chunqiu for the money in the yamen?
So County Magistrate Li’s only choice was to quickly sell Borentang at a low price and sell it to Ye Chunqiu.
Both sides knew this kind of small thoughts, and County Magistrate Li looked kind and obviously did not treat Ye Chunqiu as an ignorant boy. Since everyone was tacit, Ye Chunqiu could not point out this thought. He smiled and said, "Tongjitang has always wanted to expand the store, but it is difficult to have the opportunity. If the adults can sell the store to Tongjitang, the students will be grateful."
Seeing Ye Chunqiu looking very willing to accept the favor, County Magistrate Li was quite satisfied. He said, "The two shops in Borentang were originally discounted at least 2,000 taels of silver. Naturally, the price has dropped a little these days." He stroked his beard and said slowly: "Besides, it is sold in the yamen, so naturally we can't take the opportunity to raise the price and compete with the people for profit. This might as well be the price of 600 taels. How about it?"
The price is impartial. Originally, these two shops occupied 500 square meters of doors alone, and the warehouse and wing room at the back cover an area of as much as three acres. This is a prime location in Ningbo. Even 2,000 taels of silver is worth the money. However, now the value of the coffin shop has plummeted. If you really want to sell it outside, people may not dare to start the 600 taels of silver. After all, the shop is used for business. Once you can't recruit business, what's the use if you ask for it?
County Magistrate Li did this to kill two birds with one stone. On the one hand, he sold Ye Chunqiu with one favor, and on the other hand, he couldn't sell it anyway. As winter was about to begin, Yin County was still recruiting laborers to repair river embankments and county schools during the slack season, so he had to settle the matter quickly.
Ye Chunqiu knew that it was a short favor from County Magistrate Li. In fact, even if County Magistrate Li didn't open this, the two shops of Borentang would still fall into Tongjitang's hands. However, he was a man for two lifetimes. Although he could see County Magistrate Li's thoughts at a glance, he still looked grateful: "The adults are so caring for students, and students don't know what to say."
County Magistrate Li laughed. He was obviously satisfied with Ye Chunqiu's performance, so he said again: "It's just for me to bring it up, it's not worth mentioning. Besides, Tongjitang hangs the pot to save the world, it's natural for this county to give you some convenience."
Ye Chunqiu thought about it and said in embarrassment: "But Tongjitang can't bring out so much silver for a while. Can the money be slowed down and then given? Can the adults ask Tongjitang to start the business first and wait a few months before giving it to the fullest?"
County Magistrate Li hesitated for a moment and agreed. There was no way, and the shop would probably not be able to find the buyer for a while, and he was not afraid of Tongjitang running away anyway.
Ye Chunqiu was overjoyed. In this way, Tongjitang won two shops at the lowest price. The three connected shops were of considerable scale. In addition, the current reputation of Tongjitang, the coffin shop was removed. Which medicine hall in Ningbo could compete with Tongjitang? It was about to be filled with wealth. Ye Chunqiu hurriedly thanked him and said, "Sir, it is said that the county still needs to build a river? This river construction is a big event. Tongjitang is willing to donate a hundred taels of silver to make some minor contributions to Yin County."
The only way is to train a doctor by himself, which is why Ye Chunqiu wanted to go to the fangs. He wanted to buy a group of teenagers to serve tea and water in the medicine hall, or take on some decoction and picking medicine. On the surface, it was to assist the doctors in the clinic, but it could make them influence. Ye Chunqiu asked a teacher to learn some skills in his spare time to read and read the literacy in his spare time. He could not only understand medical books, but also have rich clinical experience. The second generation of doctors in Tongjitang were trained.
