Chapter 12, the building collapsed
After Wang Dachui left.
Fang Xue came in: "Brother Rui, what's wrong? I seem to hear that you had a quarrel?"
"It's okay, it's just a small misunderstanding. It'll be fine if we explain it clearly."
When Fang Rui said he was tight-lipped, he meant he was tight-lipped.
Well, actually, it is best to leave this matter to him. If we tell Mr. Fang Xue, it will bring some unnecessary risks.
Seeing what Fang Rui said, Fang Xue nodded and stopped asking.
After teasing Fang Ling at home for a while, Fang Rui saw that it was getting late, took the medicine bag and stood up: "Mom, it's almost time, I should go out."
"Hey, go ahead and be careful along the way." Fang Xue sent him out the door and watched Fang Rui's back disappear before turning back and waiting for him under the dim oil lamp while doing some needlework.
…
black market.
Fang Rui rented a stall as usual, selling finished medicine packages of 'hemostatic powder' and 'health medicine'.
Not to mention how prosperous his business is, people come to buy from time to time, and there is an endless stream of people.
In fact, counterfeit products have long appeared on the black market.
The finished drug business, to put it bluntly, has a threshold, but it’s not much higher.
Ordinary people can't imitate it.
But for the rich and powerful, it is just a matter of thinking. If you find a similar doctor, you can develop similar or even better finished medicines.
Of course, it is precisely because of this that no big shot is eyeing him.
If it's soaps, perfumes, etc., even if Fang Rui keeps a low profile, he might still be in trouble - those powerful people are not fools, they are naturally discerning. Fang Rui won't be able to sell much of such things, but if
If you take advantage of their methods, it will be huge profits.
Therefore, he also has a strong sense of what business he can do and what business he cannot do, and he is quite self-aware.
anyway.
Although the big players in the city can produce finished medicines, they don't look down on the small business in the black market. If they really want to do it, they can just ask the drugstore below to add a category of finished medicines.
Therefore, the imitations that appear on the black market are basically doctors like Fang Rui.
but.
Fang Rui, as the first person to take advantage of the situation, was the first to sell finished medicines. He had never heard of any accidents involving the medicines he sold. He had a good reputation, so his business was naturally much better than others on the black market.
He is also a top-grade warrior, so this small amount of profit will not be targeted, which means stability, which is another major advantage.
All in all, Fang Rui's current finished drug business is pretty good.
Not long after.
"Coming?"
Gao Yao wandered over, said hello, sat down next to him, and put aside the fake secret book in his arms.
These days, he and Fang Rui were both frequent visitors to the black market. They met many times, said hello and chatted, and developed a three-point friendship with each other over time.
"How's business?"
"It's okay." Fang Rui cherished his words like gold.
"Hey, it's useless to ask. You'll know just by looking at it. I can't do it..."
Gao Yao cursed: "Damn, these people are getting harder and harder to fool..."
"If those secret books of yours had fewer errors and omissions, they wouldn't be where they are now... sell less fake stuff and accumulate some bad virtue!"
Fang Rui recalled the first time he came to the black market, when this guy was selling secrets to him, and couldn't help but complain.
"Look at what you said, I really want to sell some high-quality secret books, but can I get them?" Gao Yao complained.
Fang Rui suddenly remembered a joke.
Question: Why do you make fake money?
Answer: Because I can’t make real money.
'This is actually a different approach but the same result.'
Fang Rui was amused in his heart, shook his head and smiled.
Here, Gao Yao started talking: "As for you saying that I harm people, I don't admit it!"
"Those poor ghosts always have their own whims, imagining that they are extremely talented and successful in martial arts. They want to take revenge on this one and overthrow that one. They simply can't recognize what they are..."
"Just a few big money secrets, don't they know they are fake? Of course they know! They just don't want to believe it, they are lying to themselves...or, in other words, they want to get lucky with the idea that they are the protagonist in the storybook.
.But pie will not fall from the sky, only hail will fall!"
"Is this all my fault?"
Fang Rui was silent.
These words are actually true.
"anyway,"
Gao Yao continued: "Even if there are secret books passed down, when practicing martial arts, you have to cooperate with medicinal diet and medicinal baths. The poor cannot provide them at all. We don't have those conditions."
"Those fake secrets that those people bought from me can't be practiced anyway. It's good to say that if they were real and they practiced according to them, it would be harmful to people! Without nourishing food and medicine, premature aging and loss of life would be a good thing!"
"I am also doing good deeds, right?" Gao Yao said shamelessly.
"this……"
Fang Rui's face twitched slightly under the Ge cloth.
It's not because of this guy's shamelessness.
But...
He originally thought that Gao Yao's 'fake secret book' was half true and half false, but he didn't expect that this guy directly admitted that he couldn't practice. I'm afraid it was nine falsehoods and one true, or even made up completely.
Simply excessive.
However, what Gao Yao said is not unreasonable.
In this world, the more desperate the people at the bottom are, the more they crave power, but how easy is it to change their destiny against the will of heaven?
As the saying goes: It is no joke to be poor in literature and rich in martial arts.
When practicing martial arts, if there are secret books, it is indeed necessary to cooperate with medicated baths, medicated meals, and nutritional supplements... Even if these are not mentioned, the appetite of martial arts practitioners is not something that ordinary families can afford.
In other words, Fang Rui has a panel that can be directly improved by relying on luck points. Otherwise, given the current situation of the Fang family, it would be impossible to support him to a high level.
After talking for a while, Gao Yao stood up and prepared to continue selling fake secrets.
Life is not easy for his family, and they have to make ends meet!
"Wait."
Fang Rui called out to Gao Yao: "I have a proposal: I will provide the source of goods, and you will sell the medicine kits for me, and I will share 20% of the profit. Do you want to do it?"
He thought very clearly that he needed to subcontract the sales. His neighbors couldn't do it because they were too knowledgeable and could easily get into trouble. On the other hand, this guy he met in the black market was a good fit.
There are many reasons for doing this:
Now, I have to go to the black market every other day to sell goods. I go out too frequently and risk being noticed by my neighbors...
I feel uneasy when I go out at night and no one is watching at home...
Dealing with people when you are impatient to sell is a waste of time and energy...
This requires an intermediary to share part of Fang Rui's work and risks.
As for asking Gao to sell goods, would it be too much to give him a 20% profit?
This is not the case.
To put it bluntly, the two of them only had casual acquaintances. To this day, the two of them have never even seen each other's true faces. They gave too little and couldn't keep people.
Furthermore, in terms of talent in business and sales, Fang Rui thinks he is not as good as this high-ranking person - this person talks nonsense to others, and is very slippery. He can support his family by selling fake secrets, so let this person sell finished products.
Medicine, maybe you can give him a surprise.
Maybe, after the cooperation, he not only saves energy and avoids all kinds of troubles, but also makes as much money as before by increasing the supply and shipment volume!
This is very possible.
"If you do it, you'd be a fool if you don't do it." Gao Yao said immediately.
He was also excited.
Why do you put so much effort into making friends with Fang Rui?
Isn't it just that: I see Fang Rui's potential and hope to support him and give him a chance when Fang Rui develops?
I just didn't expect that this investment would pay off so quickly.
To be continued...
