Chapter 88 Huibaotang takes a fancy to Mingrentang

Huibaotang practiced collectively for a whole month and finally came to an end. During this period, Shibao took the flowers to travel around the school in the morning and evening, between Huibaotang, and studied various magic theories in the school in the daytime, and accompanied everyone to practice at night, and life was fulfilling.

Due to the rapid increase in the number of lecturers, both accommodation and workplaces seem very crowded, and the demon mother has always been anxious.

On that day, Qiu Mo quickly walked into the VIP room and reported good news to the demon mother: "Report to the owner of the hall, the pharmacy shop next to our Huibao Hall has just posted a notice and is going to transfer the shop."

"The next pharmacy shop is going to be replaced?" The demon mother was a little unbelievable and looked at Yan Xingluo with a look.

"Yes, it's the medicine shop next door." Qiu Mo replied with a happy face.

"Master, it's not too late. Let's go to the next door to take a look before making a decision." Yan Xingluo also looked determined to win this great news.

Opening a medicine shop is different from selling Yuan Dan. The service target is patients, not demon cultivators who practice. There must be doctors in the store who are in the hall to be treated, paying attention to the color, smell, question the symptoms, and take the pulse, then write down the pulse case, cause, treatment method, and finally prescribe the prescription.

The pharmacy mainly sells raw and cooked medicinal materials, which are decoctions, decoctions, and cooked medicinal materials such as pills, powders, plasters, and Yuandan.

I don’t know if the business method is inappropriate, or if the demon cultivators are injured and the physical condition is too good. Compared with Huibaotang, the pharmacy shop called Mingrentang next to the right is much worse, and it even reached a dismal level of business.

The strong pressure of continuous losses has caused the pharmacy shop to be unable to bear it, so they had to endure the pain of ceding the shop.

Accompanied by Yan Xingluo, the demon mother immediately got up next door and visited the shopkeeper of Mingrentang.

The shopkeeper looked in his sixties and had silver hair. He had been engaged in the pharmaceutical business for fifty years. When he saw the shopkeeper of Huibaotang coming to visit, he hurriedly welcomed him and invited two distinguished guests to sit in and have a tea.

Yao Mom explained the purpose of her visit, and the old shopkeeper's expression changed from solemn to relaxed. He bowed to Yao Mom and said, "Shopkeeper Hua doesn't know anything. My Mingrentang has been open in Shaoyao Street for decades and has always had a good reputation. Last year, the old boss unfortunately traveled to the west. The young boss was young and could not invest his working capital and continued to operate the pharmacy. The old man was unable to support his own way, and the crisis was a foregone conclusion. I only hope to find a kind of beneficiary who continues to operate in the name of Mingrentang. My young boss also meant this. I wonder what the storekeeper Hua thought?"

The old shopkeeper said straightforwardly that the young master really did not want Mingrentang's name to be destroyed in his own hands, so he proposed such a condition for replacing the shop.

"This, Xiaofu Rong thought for a moment." The demon mother didn't know this condition in advance, so she turned her head and looked at Yan Xingluo.

Yan Xingluo sent a message to Yaoma: "Huibaotang took a fancy to Mingrentang's shop, mainly to solve two problems: the jade slip production site and the attendance site of the minister. As for retaining Mingrentang's name, it means that it is necessary to run a pharmacy shop. Although we are not familiar with this industry, we can continue to hire elite backbones of the church."

After hearing this, the demon mother turned around and asked the old shopkeeper a series of questions; "Old sir, I wonder how much the area of ​​the shop is? How much does the clerk lose? How much does the monthly loss? How much does the transfer price?"

"Mingren Hall has four-bedroom storefront, two floors on the upper and lower floors, and two-level courtyards in the back. Currently, there are twelve clerks, including rent, and a monthly loss of 20 medium-grade Yuan stones. The store transfer price is 300 medium-grade Yuan stones, and various raw and cooked medicines are 80 medium-grade Yuan stones." The old shopkeeper replied one by one.

"The store transfer price is not too high. Good. The young lady promised the conditions of the owner, but the clerk should be re-employed after the assessment." After soliciting Yan Xingluo's opinion, the demon mother made a promise, just saying that the clerk would need to be assessed and then hired as appropriate.

The old shopkeeper thanked him on the spot, presented his authorization certificate, and signed a store transfer contract with Yaoma on behalf of the owner. Yaoma immediately paid the house in one lump sum, accepted all property rights certificates, and ordered all raw and cooked medicines.

The old shopkeeper trusts the strength of Huibaotang next door very much. It is better to sell it to his neighbors than to sell it to his neighbors than to sell it to his neighbors. He also believes that the demon mother will treat Mingrentang's clerk well.

On the afternoon of that day, when Shi Bao and Huaer came back from the school, Mingrentang had already been handed over to Hui Baotang. Seeing this great news, Shi Bao looked at Yao Ma with admiration and admired Yan Xingluo even more.

The demon mother smiled and praised Yan Xingluo to her son. With this girl helping her, she was much more relaxed in the management of Huibaotang.

Yan Xingluo's face was red and embarrassed to look at Shi Bao and Huaer. She said a few polite words, for fear that Huaer would be jealous. Zhihuaer also sincerely joined the ranks of praising her, which made her feel much more at ease.

On the second floor of Huibaotang, the clerks in Mingrentang were even more anxious, and formed a sharp contrast with the passionate feelings of Huibaotang and his clerks. Faced with the upcoming assessment of the new owner, I wonder if my job can be saved.

The demon mother asked Shi Bao to fully handle Mingrentang affairs, which scared Shi Bao backed up. She assessed whether the pharmacy staff was competent, and she was desperate.

Yan Xingluo smiled secretly and sent a message to Shi Bao: "Xiaobao, don't be nervous. Please enter the VIP room one by one, communicate and make a decision after understanding the situation."

Shi Bao then calmed down and asked the old shopkeeper to come into the house to talk. The old shopkeeper entered the house and wanted to meet the young master, but was stopped by Shi Bao, and instead asked the old shopkeeper to sit down.

The old shopkeeper nodded secretly and said, "I know a lot about the rumors about the young master. I met once when Huibao Hall moved in. Today, I met with the following identities, so the old shopkeeper did not dare to be entrusted."

Shi Bao asked the old shopkeeper and asked, "Mr., what is the monthly sales of Yuerentang?"

"Young Master, Yueren Hall's monthly sales are 35-year-old Yuanshi." The old shopkeeper's answer was just right.

Shi Bao asked again: "Mr., what is the income of raw medicine in Yuerentang's monthly income? What is the income of mature medicine? How much does it lose every month?"

The old shopkeeper replied without thinking: "The young master of the hall, Yuerentang's monthly income is 35 medium-grade Yuan stones, the income of this raw medicine accounts for 50%, the income of mature medicine accounts for 30%, and the income of 20% is medical expenses. All clerks are paid with sixteen medium-grade Yuan stones, pay the tax on the government and harbor seven medium-grade Yuan stones, the cost of medicinal materials is 14 medium-grade Yuan stones, and the other cost is four medium-grade Yuan stones, and the other cost is four medium-grade Yuan stones, which does not include rent expenses, and will lose six medium-grade Yuan stones per month."

Shi Bao nodded secretly, and then consulted the old shopkeeper about Yuerentang's business situation and the reasons for the loss, and came to his own conclusions at the preliminary stage.

Yuerentang has no characteristics in its business, resulting in a light business, but there are many employees, and its labor cost expenditure cannot be reduced. The operating conditions are downstream among dozens of pharmacies in the city. In the past, the owners can waive rent, but they can barely support it. Now, once the owners lose their rent support, it will immediately make the worse.

After quickly talking to the twelve Yuerentang clerks, Shi Bao solicited the opinions of the two left and right hands. Yan Xingluo and Huaer looked at each other. Huaer knew that she was not as good as Yan Xingluo in business, and wanted to listen to her opinions.

Yan Xingluo only said one sentence: "Yueren Hall is not short of demons, please leave them all behind."

Shi Bao didn't ask why, so he walked out of the VIP room and came to the hall. Seeing the anxious faces of the Yuerentang clerks, he smiled slightly, and announced the following decision loudly.

"All elders and colleagues, Shi Bao, on behalf of Hui Baotang, you are welcome to continue to stay in Yueren Hall to practice. I don't understand medicine, but I know the principles of superior medicine and country and inferior medicine for diseases. The future development of Yueren Hall actually depends on your unity and morality, and on your collective efforts."

He bowed to the old shopkeeper: "I'm sorry to ask the old man to be the manager, and he is in charge of Yue Rentang's affairs."

The old shopkeeper's body trembled slightly, and a true oath suddenly burst out from his chest: "Dong is willing to help the young master of the hall, and he will never refuse."

Shi Bao's actions swept away the long-term depression in the hearts of the other 11 clerks. They expressed their feelings in unison: "We are willing to advance and retreat with the old shopkeeper and work hard for the young master, and we will never give up."

That night, the demon cultivators who were united in the two halls gathered on the second floor of Qingteng Pavilion.

Qingteng Pavilion is known for its goodness, ducks, and monster meat dishes, such as chicken breasts, whole ducks, cold duck paws, fried beast meat, soft fried chicken wings, etc., which are all signature dishes in the restaurant. Their soups, desserts and other fine dishes are also praised by customers.

At the banquet, Shi Bao announced the salary of all the clerks of Yuerentang on behalf of Yaoma. The old shopkeeper enjoyed a monthly salary of nine yuan, each of the three doctors had a monthly salary of five yuan, and each of the guys had a monthly salary of three hundred yuan, which was the same as the Draft Officer Huibaotang.

Now the twelve clerks of Yuan Yuerentang were shocked. How could such a good thing happen? When they reacted, they realized that they had fallen into the honey jar. Everyone once again made an oath to be willing to serve Huibaotang to death.
