Chapter 25 A Song of Owl Wind
One morning, we only took half an hour to get off the pharmacy shop. The owner of the pharmacy moved away with his family and family. As soon as the owner of the pharmacy shop left, Dongqing and Xiaoyun hugged each other happily, and then happily went to the back house to clean and arrange the decoration.
Lu Tianhua was also very happy and said with a smile: "This shop is good, but Xiaoqi, you are a little anxious. If you talk carefully, you will definitely lose it. For brother, I see that the original owner wants to sell it."
Lu Qi shook his head and smiled and said, "Brother, if you were the original owner, you spent 120 taels to buy the shop, now I will take the initiative to buy this shop. Will you sell it below the original price?"
Lu Tianhua was stunned, and Lu Qi shook his head and said, "Brother, you won't sell it. The reason is that the original owner did not take the initiative to sell it. When he saw someone buying it, he would not sell it at a low price. The more we bargained with him, the more he would feel that the pharmacy shop was valuable. At that time, we would not be able to take the pharmacy shop at 150 taels. If he peeked out, we would want to buy this pharmacy shop, and we would not be able to get the pharmacy today."
Lu Tianhua thoughtfully and nodded, "If you need it, you will be worth it. If you need it, it will be worth one penny. If you need it, it will not be expensive if you sell one or two."
Lu Qi smiled and said, "This is the reason. However, selling medicines cannot make huge profits. No matter how scarce the medicine is, you cannot go wild with the profit. If you make money with the huge profits of medicine, you will become a grudge. Doctors must have medical ethics, and they cannot be unwilling to sell medicines. Don't make a harsh profit in front of you. The back of you will cause a group of angry and rioters to smash the shops and kill them. That's not worth the loss."
When Lu Tianhua heard this, he looked at his younger brother in shock. He had not seen each other for five years. This younger brother had seen so far in the world and surpassed himself in his knowledge. It was really better to travel thousands of miles than reading thousands of books.
The brothers briefly and started to organize the medicine. Although the pharmacy shop was just under the tray, it could not be closed. Lu Qi called Xiaoyun to take charge of the medicine. He cooperated and asked Dongqing to go to the Zhou family to report the news and asked his relatives to come and have a look.
Soon after, all the relatives came. Mr. Zhou was very happy and involuntarily instructed him as an elder that he should not forget to do good deeds and accumulate virtue. The Lu brothers naturally accepted the teachings and expressed their opinions that good deeds were the first priority and money was the second. After reading the words, Mr. Zhou went back with his wife, but left two worldly-wise male servants to help.
Everyone was happy after taking the medicine shop. They happily helped organize the home. Soon there were patients who came to buy medicine one after another. Xiaoyun calmly asked about the patient's condition and introduced his own medicinal materials according to the condition. Lu Qi nodded secretly. As the saying goes, he became a doctor after a long time of illness. After taking medicine for a long time, he became a doctor. The little girl is a smart and thoughtful person, so she calmed down and handed over the medicine shop to Xiaoyun for full charge.
He asked Xiaoyun to list the list based on the combination of existing medicines, see what is missing, and prepare to come in at a high price nearby first, and sell it with existing medicines. The existing medicines cannot be damaged due to lack of medicines. The medicinal materials also have a shelf life.
It was almost noon, and the pharmacy was in order. At this time, two guests who unexpectedly came, namely, Aunt Xin from the elder Zhou Mansion, and a beautiful and beautiful maid of seventeen or eighteen years old.
Aunt Xin's arrival immediately became the focus. As the master, Lu's mother met with courtesy with a smile, and the younger generations naturally came forward to greet him. Lu Qi saw that Aunt Xin was twenty-seven or eight years old, with a thin white skin, a melon-shaped face, curved eyebrows and apricot eyes, a peach cheeks, and wearing a lilac pomegranate skirt. She was a stunning beauty at first sight.
Aunt Xin smiled softly in front of everyone, giving people a very friendly feeling. In Lu Qi's mind, because of Ning'er's affairs, he had characterized Aunt Xin as a foolish woman. When he saw her, he was very surprised. Aunt Xin's appearance could not be seen at all.
After Lu Qi saw him, Aunt Xin looked at Lu Qi carefully without any hesitation. Lu Qi's face was slightly hot and his heart was a little scared, but it was not a special thing to make people look at him more. He looked at him with his eyes facing the nose and his heart stepped aside.
I heard the aunt Xin smiled and said, "Mrs. Lu, your young master is indeed mighty and deserves to be the descendant of the general."
Of course, his son was praised by Lu's mother and smiled and said, "Mrs. Xin is over-reputable."
Aunt Xin turned her head and glanced at the structure of the medicine shop, and said with a soft smile: "Wangjiang Fort has always been short of medical treatment and medicine. Mrs. Lu took this shop. If the source of medicine is sufficient, it would be a great blessing for the people of Wangjiang."
Lu's mother said sincerely: "We also hope to bring luck to the people of Wangjiangbao. Please take more care of Mrs. Xin in the future."
Aunt Xin smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mrs. Lu, we are relatives. As long as the pharmacy is not illegal, no one dares to cause trouble in the next place."
Lu's mother said sincerely: "Thank you, Mrs. Xin."
Lu Qi listened and thought to himself that Aunt Xin was straightforward and dared to speak so much, which means that Aunt Xin's status in the elder Zhou Mansion must be quite high, and the most time was also the elders of the Zhou Mansion.
Just as I was guessing, I suddenly heard Aunt Xin smile and said, "Young Master Lu Qi, Aunt Xin wants to ask you something, can you answer truthfully?"
Lu Qi looked up and calmly said, "Aunt Xin, please ask, Lu Qi will definitely answer truthfully."
Aunt Xin smiled and said, "I heard from Mrs. Lu that you have obtained an official position by making meritorious service in the army, so why don't you stay in the army for a long time to develop?"
Lu Qi was stunned and didn't understand why Aunt Xin and a girl asked him this. He thought for a while and said, "It's hard for me to answer this question. If I answered truthfully, I would violate the ban."
Aunt Xin smiled and said, "There are all relatives here, no one will talk nonsense. Aunt Xin really wants to hear your truth."
When Lu Qiyi saw that Aunt Xin did not let go, he thought for a while and said calmly: "There are two main reasons for not staying in the army. One is that the younger generation misses their relatives, and the other is that although the younger generation has made contributions, the imperial court values culture over military affairs. The younger generation's contributions can only be rewarded by a dispersed official. The younger generation has no roots in the army and is difficult to get real positions and promotions. In summary, the younger generation's pursuit of development after leaving the army and returning home is trying to gain some ordinary wealth through business."
Aunt Xin nodded and said softly: "You can see your shortcomings and know how to adapt, and your future achievements will definitely be great."
Lu Qi said in harmony: "I just don't have great ambitions, and I'll be content if I can seek some immediate benefits."
Aunt Xin smiled and said, "The road is coming out step by step, and the high position is climbing up step by step. You can't even grasp the profits in front of you, and you will most of the great ambitions will achieve nothing."
Lu Qi was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at Aunt Xin deeply. He had a high opinion of the beauty in front of him, and should belong to the category of women.
Aunt Xin lowered her eyes and smiled softly: "Young Master Lu Qi has a treasure flute, do you like musical light very much?"
Lu Qi was stunned again, touched the bamboo flute on his waist, and said in a harmonious voice: "I like music, but I just adjust my mood in my spare time and am not proficient."
As soon as he finished modest, his sister-in-law Zhou Yue'er suddenly said, "Aunt Xin, my seventh brother's flute sounds very nice."
Lu Qi turned his head and looked at his sister-in-law, but saw Zhou Yue'er smiling and winking at him. This time, Lu Qi understood a little, his skin immediately became hot, and his heart began to surpass normal, and he became more vigorous.
I heard Aunt Xin smiled and said, "Is that true? Can Mr. Lu Qi play a song to make Aunt Xin feel a little lucky?"
Lu Qi hesitated for a moment and pulled the flute in his hand. He had no good reason to refuse Aunt Xin's soft laugh. Playing a song would not have any problems. After holding the flute, he said in a harmonious voice: "Please give me some advice."
When the bamboo flute was delivered to the mouth, a thin soft sound appeared, which made everyone feel relaxed and they couldn't help but listen carefully. The soft sound was low and thin, but it was clearly heard, like a stream of silk flowing into people's hearts.
Gradually, there were occasionally pearls and jade jumps in the slight sound, crisp and short, like a splattering spring, and the sound of the flute gradually became louder, sometimes high and sometimes low, sometimes light and sometimes heavy, like a clear spring in the mountains circling and scattering. With the swelling of the spring water, the sound of the flute gradually increased, like a small mountain spring gradually becoming a torrent, hitting the stones and slapping the wood with the momentum of going back, rushing down the mountains, merging into the river, and fighting in the turbid waves, unwilling to sink.
Unconsciously, half an hour passed, and the spring entered the river, and the sound of the flute stopped, which made everyone's excited emotions suddenly shocked back to reality. Lu Qi put down the bamboo flute and said in a harmonious voice: "Aunt Xin, I am so stupid."
Aunt Xin looked at Lu Qi in surprise, and watched for a few seconds before she was surprised and said: "This is the 'quan' song in the piano score. You can use the sound of the flute to interpret the heroic momentum of the spring entering the river. Your music is no less than that of a famous musician."
Lu Qi felt a little proud when he heard this and said humbly: "I just have some experience in looming Xiao, which is far inferior to a real musician."
Aunt Xin praised: "Young Master Lu Qi is a rare versatile talent in civil and military affairs."
