Chapter 77 Cooperative business
"Master, I gave an old man a recipe for a medicinal diet before. Now his son wants to buy a recipe for a medicinal diet. Master, you taught me this recipe. I can't make my own decision and sell it, so I came to ask the master.
!”
Feng Yi stopped grabbing the medicine and pulled Ah Li to sit on the stool.
"Master is very happy that Ah Li respects his teacher so much. What master teaches you is yours. As long as you don't take the initiative to use what I teach to harm others, you can do whatever you want with the rest."
Ah Li: "Master, you are so kind to Li Li!"
Feng Yi's eyes were full of crow's feet from laughter, and he looked at Ah Li with doting eyes, "You are my close disciple, I won't be nice to anyone if I don't treat you well."
Then he asked: "Does your father know the person who bought the son?"
Ah Li nodded and responded, "I know the family that came to see me when you were away last time."
When he was having dinner at Ah Li's house, Lin Changlu's family told him that someone came to Ah Li for medical treatment.
At that time, he was very happy. When he went back later, he could show others that his apprentice was able to cure diseases and save people at the age of three or four.
Later, in order not to expose them, Lu Yun went to investigate and found that the Ji family were just business people and posed no threat to them.
Now that I think about it, he is indeed the richest man in Yongning Prefecture. He will not miss any opportunity to make money.
"If it's from Ji's family, I can believe it."
He thought for a moment and then said: "You can sell some of the medicinal recipes I taught you to him. I know you want to make money to make your family's life better. Master has a suggestion for you. You might as well tell the other person that you are
Don’t sell the money, but take the prescription as a share, and you can collect a steady stream of money from the medicinal restaurant they open in the future.”
He also wanted Ah Li to live a good life, so he also agreed with Ah Li to realize the prescription.
It was the first time Ah Li heard such an idea and stared with big round eyes, "Master, you mean we have a share of everything they sell after taking away the prescription, right?"
"Yes, Ah Li, you are so smart, but you must remember to ask your father to sign a contract with the other party. Even if you trust someone no matter how much you trust, you must write it clearly in black and white."
"Okay, Master, I understand. I will tell my father."
Ah Li and Feng Yi walked out happily after chatting.
She did not rush home, but turned around and went to Lu Qingling's room.
"Brother Ling, what are you doing?"
Lu Qingling was writing something on the desk when she saw Ah Li enter the room and put the pen on the pen holder.
"Li Li, what makes you happy when you look so happy?"
Ah Li swayed happily, "Brother Ling, I'm going to make money again soon!"
"Are you short of money? I have a lot of silver to spend on you!"
Ah Li shook his head vigorously, "Brother Ling, if you have money, it's yours. If I want to spend it, I have to earn it myself."
Lu Qingling had never worried about running out of money, but now she suddenly felt that she should also try the joy of making money.
"Okay! Just do it if you like, Brother Ling will support you."
Ah Li always remembered what Grandpa Turtle told her before, that others can only rely on others for a while, but you still have to rely on yourself for everything. She didn't understand the meaning of this sentence before, but now she understands it!
Only when you become strong will others not dare to bully you.
"Thank you, brother Ling. When Ah Li makes money, he will buy you many, many things."
"Okay, then let me thank Lili in advance."
Ah Li waved his hand grandly, saying you're welcome.
After she returned home, she told Ji Pingwei everything her master had told her.
When Ji Pingwei heard this, he knew that someone must have given Ah Li some advice, otherwise how could such an older child know so much.
Fortunately, he only had the purpose of making money and using medicinal food to connect with others, and had no other ideas.
He immediately agreed to Ah Li's request.
Ji Pingwei and Lin Changlu discussed and determined the following cooperation methods.
Ah Li provided medicinal recipes and Ji Pingwei was responsible for running the business. After the medicinal food hall was opened, all profits would be 50-50 for both families.
Finally, Lin Tianyi was asked to write a contract, and the terms were clearly listed.
When Ah Li was still young, Lin Changlu signed and had his fingerprints pressed.
"Okay, from now on, our two families will have a cooperative relationship. I hope that our medicinal food halls can open all over the country."
Ji Pingwei has a strong feeling that the Lin family will not suffer losses if they cooperate with him, so he doesn't care how much he pays now, as he will definitely get big rewards in the future.
"Master Chengji thinks highly of us, otherwise how could we open a store and do business with the richest man?"
"Brother Lin, you are several years older than me. I have always called you eldest brother. Shouldn't you change your title? Calling you Master Ji is too alienating."
"Okay, I'll call you Brother Ji from now on."
"Brother Lin, I will take this contract to the government office for justice, so that everyone can feel more at ease."
"Okay, I'll leave these things to Brother Ji."
When the three brothers of the Lin family heard that their family had entered into business with the richest man, they sat aside and said nothing, but they were very excited inside.
The status of merchants in the Dayue Dynasty did not belong to the lowly profession. On the contrary, the richer people were as respected and sought after as scholars.
After all, it is not easy to support a scholar. If you are not allowed to do business, ordinary people will be even more afraid of studying.
Before the Dayue Dynasty, there was a saying about scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, which ranked the status of merchants at the bottom.
The founding emperor of the Dayue Dynasty abolished this item after the founding of the dynasty. He believed that merchants could regulate the development of the entire country's economy and drive economic flows.
After discussing the matter, everyone had a meal together.
At the dinner table, Ji Pingwei discovered that the two Lin brothers were down-to-earth and reliable people.
"Brother Lin, when the medicinal restaurant opens, it will need a lot of manpower. I think the two nephews, Da Rong and Er Rong, are quite good. If they are willing, they can work in the shop. My own family is more reliable than hiring outsiders.
More, what do you think?"
"Well, that's a good thing."
Lin Changlu glanced at his two sons. The second son's eyes were bright, while the eldest's face was indifferent.
"Boss, second brother, what do you think?"
Lin Darong smiled honestly, "Dad, Uncle Ji, my mouth and brain are not as flexible as my second brother's. I'd better stay at home with my parents!"
Lin Errong thought for a moment and his eyes darkened, "I'd better stay with my parents! You are old and there are so many children at home. If we go to such a far place, we won't know what happened at home.
"
"You don't need to think about us. We are in good health and have nothing to do. Why don't you let me make the arrangements? The eldest brother stays at home, and the second brother will follow your Uncle Ji to the medicinal dining hall to help. What do you think?"
