How can it be compared to Runshitang, which is so magnificent and magnificent?
Although the store was busy, a waiter came to greet them as soon as they entered. Yang Shixiang said: "I have a post and a gift list, please help me send it to Guidong."
"Yes, what do you call Mr. Gan Ran?"
"My surname is Yang." Yang Shixiang said, "As soon as your post is sent in, Guidong will naturally know
"You're young, let's go." He said, first asking them to sit down on a chair on the side, and offering tea, and then asked the two of them if they smoked? Both hookah and dry tobacco are prepared. Liu San thought to himself that the service attitude in the old society was really not good at all. This kind of thoughtfulness and respect was not comparable to the professional toothy smile of modern waiters.
The man went in to deliver the message. Liu San took the time to observe the operation of the entire drug store and saw that although there were many people coming and going in the store, they all had their own places to go. Some are holding prescriptions to grab medicine; some are small druggists carrying carts; and some are well-dressed and well-behaved, and should be big customers. No matter what kind of people come, there will be dedicated waiters to entertain and entertain them without any fuss. It doesn’t matter that the ancients didn’t learn anything like modern management. There is something unique about business management.
In the corner of the counter, I saw a specially erected signboard: "Delong Co., Ltd. is accepted throughout the province, and the money will be exchanged and the money will be redeemed on sight." This is indeed Delong's chain number. It's no wonder that only large-scale medicinal materials shops like this can allocate tens of thousands of silver at any time. The efforts of Guangzhou Station really paid off.
The stools didn't even get warm. Suddenly I heard people calling from inside: "Please, Mr. Fifth!"
At this moment, the guy who had just announced the message had already ran out, came to Yang Shixiang, and said, "Fifth Master, I'm sorry for my short-sightedness."
"Forget it," Yang Shixiang said calmly, "I won't be coming to Foshan for a long time, and the people below you will inevitably show their faces.
.
"No wonder!" the waiter said with a smile, "Please come in quickly! The master has ordered the flower hall to serve tea."
As he spoke, he bowed. Holding out his hand to greet the guests, Ran Zhou led the way, taking Yang Shixiang and Liu San to a small courtyard.
This small courtyard is specially used to welcome distinguished guests. It is surrounded by flowers and trees and has three living rooms in a row with exquisite decoration. There is a small plaque hanging on the door in the middle, with the words "Seeing the Heart" written on it. Did not enter the hall. First, a footman announced in a loud voice: "The fifth master is here!"
Then Xiang Feizhu's door curtain opened, and a man in his thirties stepped out. His face is as white as jade, and he wears a black veil to hold down the square towel. Wearing a half-worn blue-gray satin straight tie, white stockings, and black satin shoes, he looked handsome and elegant. From head to toe, he looked like a young man from a Tsinghua family. It was impossible to tell that he was a big local businessman.
"Fifth brother!" The person who came was none other than Yang Shixiang's cousin, Yang Shiyi, the current head shopkeeper of Yang Run Kaitang Deji. "It's been many years since we've seen each other. I'm fine with you!"
"TOEFL!" Yang Shixiang raised his hand in greeting. "Big brother, the surname is always safe?"
"Okay, okay, this is"
"This is my brother's best friend. Dr. Liu, a famous doctor from Lingao.
"Disrespect, disrespect." Yang Shiyi's eyes turned several times on Liu San's face. There was a glint in his eyes, he was definitely not an ordinary successful young man.
He led them into a guest room on the east side. Liu San took a look at it. It was extremely neatly decorated, with calligraphy, paintings and toys. The layout was sparse and elegant, reflecting the owner's good taste.
The great merchants of the Ming Dynasty are really quite impressive! Thinking that in the original time and space, within twenty years, such elegant and elegant people would most likely become dead bones on the roadside or live in a shack, living a miserable life. The prosperity of the world of mortals has been reduced to smoke. I can't help but feel emotional.
Both sides were polite to each other. Say hello to your family. Yang Shiyi was extremely polite, asking for help, and apologized profusely, saying that business was busy and the sea route had been uneasy in recent years, so he had never been to Lingao. Relatives are no longer familiar with each other, so we should visit each other more often in the future.
There are already eight tall basins on the coffee table, containing refreshment fruits. The servant also gave them hand towels soaked in well water to wipe their sweat. The etiquette was very thoughtful, but Liu San was a little confused: Could it be that Yang Shixiang felt poor. Feeling a little nervous due to shame? Looking at the appearance of shopkeeper Yang, there is no hint of snobbishness at all.
After some remuneration. Yang Shiyi asked about Yang Shixiang's purpose.
Yang Shixiang then explained the matter of adding some valuable medicinal materials to synthesize two summer-heat medicines:
"After thinking about it, only Big Brother has the most comprehensive range of fine goods. It's better to ask for help than to ask for yourself, so I came to Big Brother to bother me."
"Easy to say, easy to say." Yang Shiyi nodded, but his face showed that he was just perfunctory and didn't even ask what kind of medicine he wanted to take. He just ordered:
"Tell the kitchen to prepare a banquet. At noon, I want to take care of the fifth master and Dr. Liu."
"Yes!" said the waiter, "please show me, sir, there is a dinner party tonight."
"I know, let's talk about it later."
"Brother has something to do tonight, and this banquet is too much trouble. I understand," Yang Shixiang said. "I'm just asking you to take a look at me," he said, asking the clerk to help him distribute the goods. Brother, please take Lingao back to make medicine.
"Where, we brothers haven't seen each other for many years, and we always have to drink wine." Yang Shiyi said, "You need to bring in some medicinal materials. What are they?"
He took the order, glanced at it a few times, and murmured to himself: "Bing Yi", "Duxiang", "Bezoar", "Feijin", repeated several times, then he put down the order and said: "Brother, I have all the goods here." Yes, but not enough for the amount fifth brother wants. "
Don't wait for Yang Shixiang to speak. He started to talk about it: a certain transaction must be used for medicinal purposes, a certain item has been ordered by a big customer, and a certain hot product has been contacted by so and so, so it has to be arranged in advance...
Only then did Liu San feel something was wrong. Leng looked at Yang Shixiang and asked, "How many can I match?"
"Well, about one-fifth of each. Fuxiang and Feijin only have a little bit, and they don't even deserve one-fifth."
"This is too little. It's not enough for medicinal purposes." Yang Shixiang said, "To be honest with you, brother, I recently took over a big deal. I can sell this batch of medicines after combining them. I thought that the goods here would be good." The most complete, no need to worry about two families.”
"Oh? Congratulations to fifth brother!" Yang Shiyi was smiling all over his face, "It's just that brother's supply here is really not enough!" He pondered for a moment, "In this case, I asked the manager to go to the colleagues in the industry to transfer some supplies, but this transfer is "It's inevitable, it's inevitable." He sighed, "Nowadays, people's hearts are not as old as before. Even if you are familiar with the store, you have to pay cash to buy goods! Alas!"
Liu San's feelings towards Yang Shiyi had changed 180 degrees in his heart. This is clearly an excuse. The more expensive the items are, the more out of stock they are. To make adjustments, you need to pay in cash. Even in modern time and space, few companies can do this. What’s more, in the ancient business society, according to the rules, payment was settled three times a year. This kind of excuse is so deceptive that no one would believe it. I've made it clear that I won't give you cash if you don't want to.
.
Yang Shixiang probably would have encountered such a situation when he arrived early, so he said hurriedly: "Brother! This time I will distribute the goods without clearing the account. Brother will distribute as much as he has, and I will pay according to the price." After that, he took out a bag from his sleeve. Here's a check, "I heard that big brother, here is also Delong's acceptance number? It also saves me the trouble of going to redeem the money."
"Oh?" Yang Shiyi took it, not bad. This is exactly the fifty-tael bill issued by Delong Bank on sight. This kind of special paper, ink, and the extremely complicated patterns on it are impossible for ordinary people to forge. Undoubtedly a real ticket!
As if he didn't believe it, Yang Shiyi looked at the watermark again. Then he let it go: "I didn't expect that fifth brother would get into big business this time."
"It's easy to talk about. Is this enough?"
"Fifth brother is too ignorant, too ignorant. The eldest brother can still help raise these medicinal materials." Although he said this, he had no intention of handing the money order back.
"If there is any extra, prepare some commonly used medicinal materials and I will take them back to Lingao."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to arrange the goods."
Yang Shiyi probably felt that it was strange that this brother was suddenly able to spend cash to purchase goods, so he kept perfunctory him, trying to get something out of him. But Yang Shixiang was very tight-lipped and didn't say anything. He only asked whether the synthesized medicine powder could be sold on consignment at Yang Runkaitang and batch it on his behalf.
Yang Shixiang currently does not have the ability to sell goods directly on the mainland, so it is naturally the most cost-effective way to find a large-scale consignment company like Yang Runkaitang with extensive business contacts and reputation.
"This" Yang Shiyi hesitated, "Fifth brother, it's not that you don't know Zu. We can't see outsiders' patent medicines. According to the rules, they are not allowed to enter the store for sale. In case there is something wrong with the disease, or the effect is not obvious. It’s not that other people’s prescriptions are wrong, it’s that our Yang Run Kaitang’s sales are not good.”
"Don't worry, brother. I have seen these two prescriptions. The combination is indeed unique. There will definitely be no problem."
Seeing that he was still hesitating. Yang Shihui handed over the samples of Biwen Powder and Zhuge Xingjun Powder. Yang Shiyi took it doubtfully, put it on the back of his hand, twisted it with his fingers, and smelled it in his nostrils.
"There's nothing wrong with the medicine," Yang Shiyi said. "It's just not that surprising. It's just refreshing and refreshing. I'm afraid it won't be easy to go to Yang Run's hall to sell consignments. My fifth brother has come a long way, so I can't let you go in vain. I'll call you later. “Gongji Hall. How about the shopkeeper come and help you consign the goods there? "
Yang Shixiang's face suddenly became ugly. He remembered Liu San's words, and if he wanted to open up the situation, he could only rely on Yang Run's help at the moment. Unable to break the face. But when you go to Gongjitang to sell, the value of the medicine you painstakingly made will plummet, and the hope of opening up the situation is very slim. How can this be worthy of Liu San who gave him the prescription and working capital? ! ~!
