Jishitang has been open for three days, offering free diagnosis and treatment, and is bustling with people.
During the past three days, Tan Ruqing and the other two doctors were so busy that they didn't even have time to drink water. People came in droves to see the doctor during the free period, so they were naturally very busy. From morning to night every day, it was crowded.
bustling.
During these three days, Xu Wanyi and four maids accompanied him to the hospital.
The shop was bustling with people, and the large courtyard behind the hospital was also very busy. The wing of the courtyard has been transformed into a medicine shop. A large number of medicinal materials were purchased, and the hired servants and apprentices were busy drying, cutting, grinding, inking, boiling, and preparing.
A large number of commonly used drugs are supplied to the pharmacy in front of you.
But the preparation and brewing of Yunnan Baiyao, which has been renamed First Aid Powder, is not done here. It is a top-secret formula and must be prepared and brewed by Tan Ruqing himself in the medicine room of the Tan family mansion. The finished medicinal powder is a small pottery
The cans are packed, labeled with red paper and shipped directly to the shop.
The symptoms of ordinary people are nothing more than headaches, brain fever, and these are nothing. However, common symptoms that occur every day include bruises and bleeding. In order to let patients know the efficacy of First Aid Powder, First Aid Powder is used to treat all traumatic injuries, although the cost is not high.
It's small, but it also has a big publicity effect.
In these three days, Zhang Yanling did not even show up. He went to the Yamen on duty as usual, as if the matter had nothing to do with him. Zhang Yanling naturally did this to confirm that the matter had nothing to do with him, so as not to make it unclear in the future.
.
In fact, Zhang Yanling was not idle. During the past three days, Zhang Yanling ordered people to pay attention to the situation in the medical clinic at all times. The guards in plain clothes were among the people who were seeing doctors and wandering around the nearby streets. In addition to quietly
The sound will be heard by more than a dozen people
In addition to warning the dirty street gangsters who broke their muscles and bones after being beaten by the crowd, they also gave a lesson to the guys who came to several other medical clinics to try to slander and cause trouble. They also traced the source and found those few
Family Medical Center warned them.
These measures taken by Zhang Yanling are also to ensure order during the three days of free medical treatment after the opening of Jishi Hall, and to punish those colleagues and gangsters who try to cause trouble secretly. When doing business in the capital, peers and gangsters are two major headaches. If
If punishment is not used as a deterrent, trouble will inevitably occur secretly.
Zhang Yanling was very happy. That night, Xu Wanyi finally agreed to participate in this matter. However, Xu Wanyi made it very clear that she was not doing it for profit, but felt that this matter was a bit new and it would be interesting to find something to do.
.In addition, she also recognized Zhang Yanling's approach, profiting from the pharmacy can maintain the investment in Wild Dog Ridge. This is the source of living water, rather than blind investment without knowing when the return will be.
In the end, Xu Wanyi agreed to Zhang Yanling's proposal to buy shares with 50,000 taels of silver. In this way, Zhang Yanling and Xu Wanyi were the three shareholders, and the profits were equally shared. At the same time, Xu Wanyi came forward and became the doctor of the hospital in name.
owner of the shop to facilitate business and reduce trouble.
Of course, this matter immediately gained Tan Ruqing's support. She was not interested in making money, but opening a medical clinic to treat people was what she wanted to do. For Zhang Yanling, the first thing is to make a profit, and the second is to make a profit.
What is it that benefits the people and eliminates their illnesses? Wild Dog
If the Ling project is to continue, funding must be guaranteed. Relying on the rent in the manor, this matter will probably come to nothing sooner or later. Now that there is a pharmacy, there is a way to make money. This will of course continue to develop and manufacture firearms in the future.
Guarantee that the comprehensive construction of Wild Dog Ridge will be completed.
The opening went smoothly for three days. On the evening of the third day, after Zhang Yanling returned from the Yamen, she was invited to the residence of Xu Wanyi, the main housekeeper, saying that she had something to discuss. After entering the main house, Tan Ruqing was actually there.
When the two women saw Zhang Yanling, they stood up and saluted. Zhang Yanling returned the courtesy and sat down, and the maid brought tea. The three of them sat at the table, feeling a little embarrassed for a while. The relationship between the three of them was indeed a bit strange. One was Zhang Yanling's wife, but she was superficial.
Husband and wife. A woman who has no identity yet, but is the woman Zhang Yanling wants to marry. And now these two women are actually sitting together in harmony. It is really a strange situation.
Zhang Yanling took two sips of tea and said with a smile: "Are the two big shopkeepers discussing important matters? Are you calling me here to hold a celebration banquet? The grand opening of Jishi Hall and the bustling crowds indicate that the business is booming. We are all happy together."
Xu Wanyi said: "What are you celebrating for? I'm inviting the Marquis to come and discuss countermeasures."
Zhang Yanling said: "What? What happened?"
Tan Ruqing smiled and said: "The princess is not satisfied with the business situation."
Zhang Yanling said: "Why are you dissatisfied? Isn't there a huge crowd? Are people lining up on the street?"
Xu Wanyi said: "Those are all people who are rushing to buy medicines for free. There are very few people buying medicines in the pharmacy these days. In three days, the income from selling medicines is less than one hundred taels. Excluding dozens of taels of silver every day,
The labor costs are still at a loss. There are very few people who buy first-aid powder. Others don't recognize it at all. Didn't you say you will make a lot of money? Why is this like this? "
Zhang Yanling laughed and said: "Isn't the princess not interested in making money? Why are you still angry about this?"
Xu Wanyi said: "Then we can't start a loss-making business. Everyone has been busy and tired these days. Ruqing sat in the clinic for three days and saw more than a hundred patients, and she lost a lot of weight from exhaustion. I have lost weight these days.
I also stay in the shop every day. People inside and outside are busy working, but the result is like this, which is really disappointing."
Tan Ruqing said: "Princess, I'm fine. Besides, our medicine is good, so what are you afraid of? It will eventually make a name for itself."
Xu Wanyi said: "I believe that medicine is excellent, but others don't recognize it. Hey, I didn't expect that doing business would be so difficult."
Zhang Yanling chuckled and said: "It has only been three days, and the princess can't hold on anymore? It's not easy for the princess to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Aren't you proficient in everything?"
Xu Wanyi said: "That's different, that's where the interest lies."
Zhang Yanling said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's just the beginning, business will be booming there immediately. However, we do need to find a way. The aroma of wine is also afraid of the alley, and we can't just wait for others to recognize it. After the official opening, we will have to use some means to achieve it."
Tan Ruqing smiled and said: "Look, I just said that the Marquis must have a solution. Just ask him to come and discuss it."
Xu Wanyi said: "Why didn't you tell me earlier if you had an idea? This business is opened for you. You can just be a hands-off shopkeeper, but you still don't want to take the initiative to make suggestions?"
Zhang Yanling said with a smile: "You can't be so impatient. Things have to be done one by one. Opening the business is the first step. Now this step has achieved the goal, and the impact is not small. Basically, everyone in the outer city knows about Jishitang."
Yes. Ruqing, all patients receiving free medical treatment should be registered, right?"
Tan Ruqing said: "Of course, all the people have registered. In the past three days, we have visited more than 470 people for free."
Zhang Yanling said: "Very good, many of these 470 people are repeat customers. This is the process of accumulating customers. Customers need to be accumulated little by little. Is it possible that others were treated in other medical clinics and went smoothly?"
I have legs, and I’m very familiar with you.
When a new medical clinic is opened, people have to come to see the doctor? How can this be true? The more customers you accumulate, the smoother the business, and the curative effect is very good, the business will gradually improve. In business, it is also
It’s not a one-time deal, it’s a long-term solution.”
Xu Wanyi said: "It's as if I don't understand this truth. No matter how many repeat customers there are, it's useless if they don't buy the medicine. You priced the first-aid powder so high, a small jar costs one or two silver, but ordinary people can buy it
Can you afford it?”
Tan Ruqing also said: "Yes, Mr. Hou, is the price a bit high?"
Zhang Yanling chuckled and said: "High? I think it's too low. This is an exclusive drug. Do you understand the monopoly? One or two cans per can? Twelve per can is worth it. This is life-saving medicine. You haven't understood how to do business yet."
