Two hundred and thirtieth chapters unexpected things
Chapter 232 An unexpected thing
Yang Shixiang was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear. Going to Jiangnan to open a drug store was something that his ancestors never dared to think about when they were most developed. Not to mention that his family had no connections in Jiangnan. The competition in the industry alone: Jiangnan's drug stores There are so many time-honored brands, each of which has a secret ointment and pill powder that has been passed down for many years, and has strong funds. Although Liu San's several patent medicines have brought a steady stream of profits to Runshitang, but he has really gone through this muddy water. A bit timid.
Liu San saw his sworn brother's hesitation and encouraged him: "Brother, with us supporting you, what are you afraid of? We are still the same: we only sell patent medicines, not raw medicines. Let's talk to the local pharmaceutical giants. It doesn’t matter much anymore.”
Runshitang's pharmaceutical factory project in Bairen Development Zone was suspended for several months due to the war. After the Chengmai victory, the project resumed. Various special equipment manufactured by the machinery factory have been basically installed, and debugging and trial production are underway. , once all is completed, the output of Runshitang Pharmaceutical Factory will be 20 times or 30 times higher than the current manual manufacturing. Such a terrifying expected output makes Yang Shixiang hesitate - the terrifying monster of the capital chain has already arrived. in front of him.
Huge production capacity means that a large amount of money is needed to pay for raw materials, a large amount of freight needs to be paid to transport goods to various places for sale, it is necessary to open stores or find agents in various places, and to put a large amount of inventory in the store... Once it is sold in a certain place, If there is a problem in every link, you will suffer a disaster - this is no better than doing business with your cousin now, selling goods in only two or three cities. When Yang Shixiang was down and out, he had great ambitions, and now he is the richest man in Lingao Then he became a little timid.
At the wine table, Li Mei had already offered to arrange help in obtaining a loan. Wu Di and Li Mei from the Delong Bank Credit Department reached an agreement on a loan intermediary. The Ministry of Commerce and the Dongmen City Management Office would select and recommend high-quality customers who can lend money. .
Yang Shixiang was a little hesitant, because the construction of the Runshitang Pharmaceutical Factory itself already owed the Australians a loan: the purchase of land, machinery and equipment, and construction costs. It was agreed that the loan would be pledged by the pharmaceutical factory itself, with an annual interest rate of 1.7 cents. Now that he needs to expand his business and need another loan, he can only use Runshitang's own property as collateral. This makes him somewhat uneasy.
Li Mei understood what he meant, and said slowly: "Don't be too anxious. We will do it step by step. Isn't Runshitang still half as good as your brother? Your brother is a senator, and our Senate The senators are just like brothers and sisters. If you have any difficulties, the Senate will definitely help..."
It was easy to talk at the wine table, and the three of them took turns. Yang Shixiang finally agreed to the business expansion plan of the senior veterans who fully cooperated. However, he already felt a little overwhelmed by such a complicated business plan. He complained to Liu San that when he thought about the future situation When he got older, it became a headache for him how to manage and operate the business. He hoped that Liu San could personally become the manager of Runshitang and help him share his worries. He would be willing to give Liu San even a few more shares.
Liu San thought that it would be useless no matter how much you give me - these are all state-owned assets - and besides, if he goes to a private company, let alone the Organization Department's disapproval, he himself does not want to give up his position in the Ministry of Health. He immediately declined politely, but
He then seized the opportunity and persuaded Yang Shixiang to send his young servants to Fangcaodi to participate in short-term training courses. This kind of training courses specialized in teaching practical skills, including accounting, business management, agricultural technology and the like. Illiterate indigenous people wanted to
First, take a class with a C diploma. According to the requirements, naturalized residents are required to take such classes for free, while generally indigenous people need to pay a certain amount of tuition.
"Even if a few children learn how to do it, they can't immediately become shopkeepers." Yang Shixiang sighed, "Although there are a few clerks who are relatively mature and reliable, they don't have enough experience after all, so they don't feel at ease when they are sent out to work alone."
"Of course we will help with this matter." Li Mei immediately said that if necessary, the Ministry of Commerce is willing to "secondment" some shopkeepers to serve Runshitang - Runshitang will just pay wages.
We ate, drank, and chatted at the wine table. We didn’t break up until noon. We were still talking about everything and had to wait until the next day to sign the contract. Li Mei also formally sent an invitation to Yang Shixiang, inviting him to attend the year-end event.
New Year's reception. Liu San stayed in Runshitang on the pretext that he was drunk and wanted to take a nap. Li Mei and Jiang Shan left each other knowingly.
Why didn't Yang Shixiang know what his foster brother meant, so he immediately sent someone to Liu San's private courtyard and asked Xuan Chun to take care of him.
Yang Shixiang got the guarantee from the elders, and all the things he had been worried about were settled one by one, and he felt very comfortable. He was about to go to the study to take a nap to get rid of the drunkenness, when a maid came to invite him: it was a grandma's invitation.
He went to the main room once.
"It's broad daylight, what's the matter?" Yang Shixiang's family is the same as the wealthy families in this time and space. The husband and wife do not see each other during the day. When they wake up early in the morning and wash themselves off, Yang Shixiang comes to the study in front and has breakfast with the account manager.
Office work. My wife manages the housekeeping in the inner courtyard. We don’t see each other until dinner time in the evening. We eat dinner and go to bed together. Even the children do not live with their mother when they grow up, but have separate residences. They only see each other in the morning and evening.
Ding Province. This is the "model" for wealthy families. The Yang family is no exception.
"Grandma said, there is something urgent. We need to discuss it with the master."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Yang Shiyi responded and followed the maid to the main room in the inner courtyard.
Before I could sit down, the eldest grandma came over and asked, "Master, do you know about Xuanchun?"
"What do you know?" Yang Shixiang was startled, not knowing what his wife meant by such a sudden statement.
"So you don't know yet!" the grandma said in a scolding tone.
"She is a woman, and she is not a maid in our family. What does her matter have to do with me?"
It is indeed irrelevant.
"Today, Third Sister sent someone to tell me that Xuanchun is here..." Grandma lowered her voice and said furtively.
"Yes? What is it?" Yang Shixiang said casually, and suddenly he understood, "You mean, she has it?"
"Yeah!" Grandma nodded, "Third sister wants us to come up with an idea - what are we going to do with Xuanchun? It's your wish to ask her to serve uncle. Now that she's pregnant, she can't stay in the dark like this.
Go down."
"Well, well." Yang Shixiang only wanted to win over this sworn brother at first, and never thought about things like Xuanchun getting pregnant. He has a young man's temper and is not in a hurry. After saying "well" a few times, he said: "This
Is this true? Have you checked your pulse?"
"She hasn't had her period for two months, why should she check her pulse?"
"Otherwise... if a woman's Guishui does not arrive, she may not be pregnant. The so-called qi and blood..."
"Okay, don't memorize medical books. If you don't believe it, just go and check your pulse yourself." The grandmother said angrily.
"I'll check her pulse tonight." Yang Shixiang nodded, "But my sworn brother's treatment methods are better than mine, so I'm afraid he'll know it by now."
"Things between men and women will come up sooner or later. Now that the matter has come out, you'd better discuss with your uncle how to deal with Xuanchun."
"Is the day right?" Yang Shixiang suddenly realized. This is no small matter!
"Yes, I checked the guest book and counted the days. My uncle did come to stay overnight on those days."
"Well, that's good!"
"What are you worried about? Is the inner house a place where any man can come in?" Grandma complained, "The young master of Third Sister's family is only nine years old. You won't be suspicious of him, right?"
"Madam, you can't neglect this kind of thing!" Yang Shixiang whispered, "If something goes wrong, it won't be as simple as making a joke. If you don't do it right, big trouble will happen."
The Australians are now the local emperors of Lingao - and it seems that they will soon be the local emperors of the entire Qiongzhou Prefecture. They have the power of life and death in their hands.
The eldest grandma looked nervous: "Don't worry, I'm a concubine! I've already checked in secret, and there's no surprise."
Yang Shixiang thought about it: The most ideal way is of course to let this adopted brother take Xuan Chun home. It is not a long-term thing to keep other people's women in his own home - let alone have children! But Liu San's wife is
The elder, I heard that she is a jealous woman, so Liu San may not dare to do this. If something happens, he may even be in trouble. Yang Shixiang was nervous for a while, but then he thought that the female elder was young after all, and what Liu San said
However, his wife is a "idle person" and will not be someone who wields power. He is a "close partner" of the Senate, so he will not do anything to him.
Now that Liu San's wife has been offended, Liu San must be more flattering in order not to fail! Yang Shixiang made up his mind:
"I think the proper way is to stay in our house and let her give birth to the child. It can be regarded as my brother's foreign home..."
The eldest grandma complained: "You are so confused. Is it possible to set up an outhouse in someone else's house? The mother and son live in our house without names or status. How will they see anyone in the future?"
Yang Shixiang thought for a while: "In this case, we will buy another house in the city. Move Xuanchun there first, and then find a few reliable family members in the old city to accompany us - we will pay for all the expenses! And for the next thing,
It’s just brothers’ own housework.”
The eldest grandma nodded and said, "That's all we have to do. However, the third sister must also have an explanation - Xuanchun is a member of her family after all."
Xuanchun's master's family was so destitute that they relied on the Yang family for their livelihood, and could not question all the Yang family's decisions. Even so, relatives still had to maintain respect. Yang Shixiang thought about it and said indifferently: "Even if we
The purpose of buying Xuan Chun is to change the body and deed to save them trouble."
