Volume Four Chapter 57: Set a Small Goal and Earn 100 Million
The next day, early morning.
Su Ling got up early, and Du Heng had already cleaned up the fallen leaves outside the store. Du Heng was a loyal and honest person. Although Su Ling agreed with him to take turns, Du Heng always rushed to do these cleaning tasks first.
.
After the two had breakfast, they soon heard the sound of wheels. When Su Ling and Du Heng walked out to take a look, they saw a group of people pulling several carts of herbal bags. Du Heng greeted them and unloaded the herbal bags and put them in.
In the back hall, Su Ling asked the leading military master to sit in the hall, then brought a teapot and asked the military master to have tea.
The military master hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I have some leaves here. I drink them all the time. I won't bother Mr. Su anymore. I can brew some myself."
When Su Ling saw this, he was no longer polite. He made tea and drank it. Then he saw the military master took out an oil paper bag from his arms and opened it gently. There was a handful of leaf buds that looked like small leaves inside.
Different from what Su Ling had seen in this world, the buds on his oil paper package were mostly one bud with one leaf, or one bud with two leaves. They were thin, straight, round and smooth in appearance, and the buds were covered with white hairs all over.
The military master poured all the young leaves into the tea bowl. Suddenly, the tea soup in the tea bowl turned green in color. The tea leaves spread out and slowly sank to the bottom of the bowl. The leaves were evenly sliced, soft, bright green and smooth.
Su Ling's eyes were immediately attracted by the bowl of tea. With a thought in his heart, he stared at the tea bowl in the hands of the military master.
This made the military commander feel quite embarrassed. He smiled at him and said, "Mr. Su, do you want to try it too?"
Su Ling waved his hands hurriedly, as if asking: "I wonder what this military master's name is? Is he from Xinyang County?"
When the military commander heard this, he was very surprised and said: "My family is poor, so I should not be given a special name. My name is Li Wusi. Mr. Su has good eyesight. I am really from Xinyang County."
Su Ling nodded and thought to himself, that was indeed the case, then smiled and said: "What kind of good tea is your thin bud-like thing?"
Li Wusi looked at the contents of the bowl, scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "This stuff is from the mountains of Xinyang County. We, the mountain people who rely on the mountains for food, just picked some of them and soaked them in the water."
, but it also has a taste."
Su Ling became more certain about what this thing was, so he said calmly: "Does Mr. Li Jun still have any left with him?"
Li Wusi laughed and said: "I left my hometown when I was 12 or 13 years old. It's been almost ten years now. I just love my family. A while ago, my mother and my eldest brother came to visit me in Longtai and brought me several bags. Now,
I have a pack in my arms, let Mr. Su try it...it's just something from the mountains, I'm afraid Mr. Su won't be used to it."
Su Ling was quite touched. The Li Wusi in front of him was not very old, but he already had nearly ten years of military service. He had fought hard for ten years and knew his hometown, but he might never be able to set foot there again in this life. But.
Who doesn't have a mother? Whose child is not a treasure in my heart? Xinyang is far away from Longtai, but his mother still goes to all the trouble and risk to see her child. Maybe she knows that she will miss this opportunity.
, fearing that she might never be able to see her child again.
In troubled times, the scary thing is not that we are separated by thousands of rivers and mountains, but that there will always be an end. The scary thing is that there is a separation between Yin and Yang.
Li Wusi stretched out his calloused hand and took out a package of these things from his arms, and handed it to Su Ling. Su Ling took it solemnly.
Then he said to Du Heng: "Old Du, take 100 or 500 coins!"
Du Heng was stunned at first, but Su Ling always kept his word, so he had no choice but to take 500 Wen from the counter and hand it to Su Ling.
Su Ling pushed the five hundred coins in front of Li Wusi and asked him to take it, saying it was the cost of buying his things.
This military man said nothing and said that these things were everywhere in his hometown and were worthless.
It wasn't until later that Su Ling said that if he didn't want the money, he wouldn't want the thing either.
The military master then picked up the 50 penny and said with a simple smile: "Well, I don't want a penny. It's just that Mr. Su is like this, and my mother has not left yet and came to Longtai. I always
I want to take her to a good meal... so 50 yuan is enough!"
Su Ling was greatly moved and nodded.
Before the military commander left, he bowed a military salute to Su Ling. Su Ling asked him to take him to say hello to my mother. The military commander had tears in his eyes and nodded heavily.
After the military master left, Du Hengfang asked puzzledly: "Su Ling, we can't even open the door to this bad thing, why did we spend 50 Wen to buy this pack of tree leaves?"
Su Ling smiled and said: "What do you know?" Suddenly he said seriously: "Du Heng, I predict that a distinguished guest will come today. If the distinguished guest comes, you will soak the leaves of this tree. Don't boil the water, just
It’s good when it’s 70% hot, and you need to use a bamboo pole to lift off the floating layer of skin on the water. Just serve it up and serve it.”
Du Heng said in disbelief: "Dignified guests are here, and you entertain them with these leaves?"
Su Ling nodded and said, "Just do as I say, and we will be rich and prosperous by then!"
It was just after noon. Su Ling was under the big maple tree in front of the door, looking at the sunshine in the sky through the gaps in the maple leaves. The autumn sunshine was no longer so warm. Su Ling stood there, her eyes were red, the sunshine was warm, and her heart was filled with joy.
For peace.
Suddenly I heard the sound of footsteps and saw two people walking towards the bad hall one after the other.
Su Ling secretly thought, it's coming and rushed to greet him.
Su Ling recognized the person walking behind. It was Guo Baiyi who was dressed in white. It seemed that he had looked like this since the first time Su Ling saw him. The folding fan in his hand was waving clearly, and he seemed to be deliberately different from the person in front.
Keep a half-step distance.
The person in front seems to be about fifty years old, with narrow eyes and a long beard, a slightly dark complexion, not very tall, but powerful, maybe because he is hot from walking, he is dressed in coarse linen clothes, with his sleeves rolled up.
He looks quite like a farmer.
Su Ling stepped forward to greet him, bowed his hands and said, "Brother Guo has no time today."
Guo Baiyi laughed, and first thanked Su Ling for curing Xiao Jingshu's facial injury, and Su Ling felt completely relieved. Although he knew the efficacy of his cold fragrance pill, it was just the first time he used it, so he was not sure about the effect.
.
Su Ling let the two of them into the hall and told Du Heng to make tea. Then he raised his hands and said, "Who is this gentleman?"
But the man who looked like a peasant also clasped his fists and said in a clear and cheerful voice: "I can't be a gentleman. My surname is Xiao, and my name is Xiao Liu. I am a distant relative of our Sikong Bapolang. Now I am a general manager in Sikong Mansion.
, I came with Mr. Baiyi today to express my gratitude on behalf of Mr. Sikong."
Guo Baiyi was startled for a moment, then smiled.
Su Ling watched Guo Baiyi's expression calmly, but couldn't guess where Xiao Liu came from. However, he heard that Xiao Liu was the manager of Sikong Mansion and must be a distant relative whom Xiao Sikong trusted, so he
He said affectionately: "Then shall I call you Brother Xiao or Mr. Xiao?"
Xiao Liu smiled heartily and said, "You can call me whatever you want. Just call me Lao Xiao. I'm just a general manager in charge of my subordinates."
When Su Ling heard this, he also smiled casually and said without being polite: "That kid is so presumptuous that I'll call you Lao Xiao."
When Guo Baiyi heard this, he was a little dumbfounded. Seeing Su Ling's "Old Xiao" call made Xiao Liu feel quite comfortable, so he stopped saying anything else.
The three of them chatted for a while, and Guo Baiyi changed the subject and said, "Brother Su, your magical medicine of Lengxiang Pills is really good. I wonder if there are any more? Brother Xiao and I came here today. We were also entrusted by Sikong and wanted to buy it.
Go back some."
Su Ling laughed loudly and said: "Of course there is. From what Brother Guo said, is this Lengxiang Pill more effective than the Liuwei Dihuang Pill?"
Guo Baiyi laughed loudly and said: "Both of them have their own merits. I am also very much looking forward to Brother Su's Butian Dazao Pill."
Su Ling hurriedly smiled and said: "This Boutian Dazao Pill is even more effective, but we need Brother Guo to wait a little longer."
In fact, Su Ling is ready to give Guo Baiyi the Heaven-Building Pill now, but he has to whet the appetite of this god.
Xiao Liu interjected: "Let's not talk about Lao Guo's medicine. I wonder how many cold scented pills Brother Su has in his hand?"
Su Ling said calmly: "How much do you want?"
Xiao Liu looked at Guo Baiyi, who laughed loudly and said: "Of course, the more, the better!"
Upon hearing this, Su Ling told Du Heng, who was boiling water, to bring his account book.
Su Ling casually flipped through a few pages in front of Guo and Xiao, and then said without hiding: "I have too many cold-flavored pills. They are placed in the medicine warehouse behind me and take up half of the space. You guys
If you want, just move them all!”
Xiao Liu and Guo Baiyi looked surprised. They never thought that Su Ling had so many cold scented pills. Xiao Liu said: "That is the best, but how much does it cost?"
Su Ling waved his hand and said generously: "The raw materials for these cold fragrance pills are provided free of charge by Sikong Mansion. I just put a little effort into it. If you want it, I will give it all away. What more money do you need?"
As soon as he said this, Xiao Liu and Guo Baiyi were even more surprised. They knew that Su Ling's medical clinic had some difficulty in running the business, but they never thought that Su Ling would be so bold as to give away all the cold scented pills.
Xiao Liu's eyes burned and he said, "Brother Su, are you serious about what you said?"
Su Ling laughed loudly and said: "Of course we take it seriously, Lao Xiao is a real person, so what we say is naturally true!"
Xiao Liu and Guo Baiyi looked at each other and then said: "This is not good after all. Brother Su made these cold-flavored pills very well. We can't let us take them all away without paying a penny. This is not good."
After all, this is a place for business, so how about we do business?"
Su Ling's eyes lit up, and she was even more suspicious of Xiao Liu's identity, but she said calmly: "Business? I don't know what kind of business it is? Old Xiao said that the business is done by the three of us, or with other people.
"
Xiao Liu waved his hand and said, "Of course it's business between Brother Su, Brother Guo, and Sikong Mansion."
As soon as Xiao Liu finished speaking, he heard Guo Baiyi cough a few times, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally. Xiao Liu then said again: "Although I can't represent Xiao Sikong himself, there is a lot of business contacting everyone in Sikong's house.
Okay, I, the general manager, can still make the decision on this business."
After Su Ling heard this, he nodded, looked at Guo Baiyi and said, "It's just that Brother Guo has said before that we can't rely on Sikong Mansion..."
Guo Baiyi's hair was a little big, and he waved his hand and said: "Oh, things are different now. You, Su Ling, saved the young lady of the Sikong family. Besides, for this small business, you are the one supplying the goods, so it doesn't count as overstepping the rules."
Su Ling then nodded and said, "In this case, doing business with the two of you is something that even Su Ling doesn't dare to think about."
He had already quietly replaced the word "doing business with Sikong Mansion" in his words.
How could Guo Baiyi and Xiao Liu not understand, it was just a tacit understanding.
Su Ling thought for a while and said: "Su Ling has done this business! But if we really want to do business together, the raw materials for the medicine will still be paid by you according to the past practice. I will not pay a penny, but I will mix these medicines."
Make Lengxiang Pills and then sell them. I will be responsible for the quality of the Lengxiang Pills, and the money sold will be divided between the three of us!"
Xiao Liu and Guo Baiyi both nodded and said it was reasonable.
But Xiao Liu looked at Su Ling as if there was something in his words and said, "How do you divide the money you just sold?"
Su Ling chuckled and looked at Guo Baiyi with deep meaning.
Guo Baiyi said without thinking: "This is easy to handle. Xiao Liu is the elder of the Xiao clan, so he will take 40%, and you and I, Su Ling, will each take 30%. How about this?"
When Xiao Liu heard this, he put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "This is the best!"
But Su Ling just looked at the two of them with a smile and said nothing.
Xiao Liu and Guo Baiyi looked at each other in confusion. After a while, Xiao Liufang said: "Isn't it that Brother Su thinks this is inappropriate?"
Su Ling said calmly: "Inappropriate! Inappropriate! Is this too insincere?"
Xiao Liu had some displeasure on his face, feeling in his heart that Su Ling was a little greedy for money.
Even Guo Baiyi looked at Su Ling in surprise, with confusion in his eyes.
Xiao Liu then said in a deep voice: "If that doesn't work, how about Bai Yi and I each take 30%, and the remaining 40% goes to Brother Su?"
When Su Ling heard this, he shook his head even more harshly and said, "It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate!"
Xiao Liu was a little angry, suppressing his anger and said: "Maybe you want to take more than half of it?"
Su Ling suddenly laughed loudly and said: "People say that Xiao Sikong is broad-minded and will not care about petty profits. He is the one who plans everything in the world. I guess everyone in the Xiao family is like this."
Su Ling secretly smiled in his heart. He said this intentionally. He put a big hat on and looked at the expressions of the two people in front of him.
Xiao Liu looked embarrassed and said nothing. Guo Baiyi's face also looked a little unnatural.
Su Ling laughed loudly, breaking the embarrassment, and suddenly waved his sleeves rather boldly and said: Old Xiao, Old Guo, you are all wrong! I mean, I only want 10%, and the remaining 90%, you two can divide it up.
Bar!"
Guo and Xiao were stunned for a while. Neither of them expected that Su Ling would make such a difference. Xiao Liu's eyes burned and he said, "Brother Su, are you serious about what you said?"
Su Ling nodded with a smile and said sincerely: "The materials for this Lengxiang Pill were originally paid for by the Sikong Mansion. I'm just showing off some skills. How much is it worth? That's what we decided!"
Xiao Liu looked at Guo Baiyi after hearing this, and the two burst into laughter.
After the three of them agreed on the business of the cold-flavored pills, Du Heng made tea from the leaves and brought it over.
As soon as I opened the lid of the tea bowl, the aroma of tea filled the room.
Both Guo and Xiao were full of praise, and Su Ling laughed and said, "The beauty of this tea is not just the smell. You two will know it once you try it."
Xiao Liu and Guo Baiyi brought the tea, took a sip, and closed their eyes together, feeling the wonderfulness they had never experienced before.
The two of them felt that the tea was clear but not dry, the tea aroma was elegant and fresh, the tea soup was fresh and mellow, and there was a lingering sweet aftertaste that lingered between the teeth for a long time, leaving a lingering fragrance on the lips and teeth.
It's really wonderful.
Guo Baiyi pointed at Su Ling and said with a smile: "Brother Su, you have to be too kind to one another. When Cang Shu and I came, your tea was just an ordinary thing from any tea shop in Longtai. Today, Brother Xiao is here, how can you take it out?"
Where’s such good tea?”
Xiao Liu thought about it for a long time and then said: "It's really a good tea! Wonderful tea! It makes me feel refreshed! It's fragrant but not overpowering, and it's slightly bitter but sweet at the same time. I wonder what the name of this tea is?"
Su Ling chuckled and said, "Mao Jian!"
Xiao Liu asked curiously: "Where does this tea come from?"
Su Ling said calmly: "Old Xiao, you are ridiculous. This is the tea I picked in the mountains when I was studying medicine. Because its leaves are covered with white hairs and the leaves are pointed, I named it Maojian."
Guo Baiyi clapped his hands and praised: "This name is extremely appropriate!"
Su Ling laughed and said: "The rough things in the mountains are probably far different from the tea in Sikong's house."
Xiao Liu laughed and drank tea with Guo Baiyi and Su Ling happily.
During the dinner, we only talked about business and nothing else.
Su Ling was willing to cooperate and not say anything to him.
When the tea was over, Xiao and Guo stood up to say goodbye.
Guo Baiyi said: "Before dark in the afternoon, some soldiers came to pick up some cold fragrant pills. The cost of the medicine is calculated once a month. You can leave the extra cold fragrant pills in the store and we will pick them up when we need them. You can also
Sell it, just remember the details!"
After thinking about it, Guo Baiyi said again: "Starting from tomorrow, the raw materials used for this cold fragrance pill will be shipped in an endless stream. You just need to concentrate on making the medicine and don't worry about the issue of sharing."
Su Ling cupped his hands and said: "The two old brothers are divided into big parts. I just wanted to do it. Now we are doing business together. The next time we meet again, we will not only have tea, but also put a table of delicious food for you two."
Food."
After saying that, Su Ling handed two packs of Liuwei Dihuang Pills to Guo Baiyi.
Only then did Guo Baiyi and Xiao Liu leave with smiles on their faces.
Seeing that they had gone far, Su Ling returned to the bad hall, but she looked a little tired. She leaned on the table in silence, thinking about something.
Du Heng came over and said, "Su Ling, what's wrong with you?"
Su Ling smiled faintly at him and said, "Old Du, tell me, did I make the right move in this move?"
Hearing this, Du Heng chuckled and said, "Su Ling, we can really make a small fortune this time. Now we have a regular business to do."
Su Ling smiled faintly and sighed: "Haha, you are talking about being light and easy. Not everyone can do that person's business..."
Du Heng was a little puzzled and said: "That person? Who is it? That general manager Xiao Liu? He is not a big shot. You can call Guo Jijiu a brother. What are you afraid of a general manager?"
Su Ling suddenly laughed and said, "Old Du, you should be open-minded!"
Then he waved his fist and said: "Let's take action, go in and grind the medicine! Let's set a small goal first and earn him 100 million!"
............
On Zhuangsu Street, two people walked side by side, seemingly talking about something.
It was Xiao Liu and Guo Baiyi.
Guo Baiyi looked at Xiao Liu who was dressed as a farmer in front of him with a deep look, and said with a smile: "Brother, if you let other people look at your outfit, you wouldn't expect Sikong to be here in person."
Xiao Yuanche (Xiao Liu) laughed loudly, suddenly squinted his eyes and said, "Can you hide it from that kid Su Ling?"
Guo Baiyi nodded and said, "I think it's probably impossible to hide it from him. Otherwise, if he knew Sikong was in front of him, he wouldn't dare call you Lao Xiao even if he was beaten to death."
Xiao Yuanche still narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Could it be that you did it on purpose?"
Guo Baiyi waved his hand and said: "He is just a common person. People who are called common people know more about their status. I'm afraid he doesn't have the guts to call him that."
Xiao Yuanche then nodded with peace of mind and said: "That's good, otherwise he would find out my identity and do this intentionally."
Guo Baiyi laughed and said: "Brother, don't worry, you are meeting each other for the first time, how can he know your identity? But in your heart, how do you feel about Su Ling?"
Xiao Yuanche paused and then said: "Although Su Ling is young, he is not interested in small gains, neither greedy nor humble. There is indeed something extraordinary about him."
Then he glanced at Guo Baiyi and said as if he was trying to teach him something: "Baiyi, do you know why he had such a terrible name?"
Guo Baiyi smiled slyly, bowed and said: "Brother, please give me some advice!"
When Xiao Yuanche heard this, he spat at him and said, "Don't be pretentious here, with a majestic look in white clothes. How could you not know this trick?"
After saying this, without waiting for Guo Baiyi to speak, he said: "This Su Ling knows the way of people's hearts. If he really chooses a serious name, I'm afraid his name will no longer be famous in this medical clinic.
I understand, this is a back alley, and there are very few people here. If he doesn’t act like a demon, how can he attract others?"
Guo Baiyi seemed to be confused and asked: "Then he is not afraid that because of the name of the store, others will not dare to come to see a doctor?"
Xiao Yuanche laughed loudly and said: "You have to be brave in everything. He gave this unpleasant name. It is always new. The so-called novelty must have miraculous effects. Most of the living beings are curious about novelty. He is not good at it.
Zi took advantage of this, as you know. In the first few days, there was a lot of people in front of his door, all coming to see his plaque. So how could his medical clinic worry that others don't know about it? "
Guo Baiyi smiled and said: "But it still has a bad reputation."
Xiao Yuanche waved his hand and said: "Whether you have a good reputation or a bad reputation, look at your eldest brother. I'm afraid he doesn't have much good reputation in this Jin Dynasty. But when it comes to your eldest brother in this Jin Dynasty, who dares to say anything?
Am I not a hero?"
Xiao Yuanche said this with a calm expression, without any intention of covering up.
Guo Baiyi nodded and said: "This is quite similar to what the eldest brother does."
Xiao Yuanche raised his eyebrows and said: "Nonsense, I, Xiao Yuanche's... people in the future won't dare to use them if they don't look like me?"
Xiao Yuanche calmed down and said: "This move of his chess showed that he did not care about it and went against the grain. He risked his life and survived. This is very courageous and insightful."
Hearing this, Guo Baiyi smiled and said, "It seems that elder brother thinks Su Ling can be used?"
Xiao Yuanche said calmly: "How can you understand everything with just a name? We will make a decision after getting in touch..."
He seemed to have pondered for a while and said: "If you are just a businessman, it would be good to do business in Longtai. If you have the talent to govern the country and secure the country, you will definitely recruit him."
Guo Baiyi laughed loudly and said: "No matter what kind of talent you are, you can't escape Sikong's control."
Xiao Yuanche laughed loudly, as if he was remembering something: "Are those three in the vegetable garden still peaceful?"
Guo Baiyi smiled and said: "Bo Ning's people are keeping tabs on him day and night. They are quite peaceful. It's just that on the day Su Ling entered the capital, that person disappeared for a while."
Xiao Yuanche nodded and said without thinking: "Check!"
Guo Baiyi cupped his hands.
Xiao Yuanche said again: "If you need anything from the cold scented pills prepared by Su Ling, just give it to him, don't neglect it!"
Having said that, he headed towards Sikong Mansion first.
