Chapter 172: Pitting Your Husband
Concubine Zhang's heart suddenly shook.
Fortunately, there were confidants in the palace, so she slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
What Chu Chengde said is not unreasonable. Chu Chengming's mother and concubine died young. With or without an adoptive mother, it would not be easy to get rid of him?
At that time, Emperor Qiwu will only have Chu Chengde, the only prince left. Isn’t the throne easily accessible?
Concubine Zhang raised a smile: "This is easy to handle, my mother will order someone to handle it."
There are many dark places in the palace, and sometimes it is inevitable that you will fall down if you cannot see clearly.
"Thank you, concubine." Chu Chengde was also happy, and the defeated look just now disappeared.
…
The Huimin Pavilion did as it was told. Su Yinyue went to choose the store address in person. She also met the lonely children and selected a few talented children. The rest were sent to Zhuangzi to work.
A place to live and settle down.
The young man's name was Lin Heng. Although he did not have the talent to study medicine, he strongly requested to stay at Huimin Hall as a handyman.
But when Su Yinyue was asked by the foreman how to decorate, Lin Heng used his sharp tongue to lower the price again and again. Both Su Yinyue and Sang Bi were dumbfounded.
"Then can you sell goods?" Su Yinyue asked.
Lin Heng nodded: "I have sold things for others before, and it was pretty good."
After hearing this, Su Yin Yue took the person to Jishi Hall and asked Qin Ye to keep the person as a boy selling elixirs.
With a cold face, Qin Ye glanced at Lin Heng and refused, saying: "Jishitang is already a young man selling medicine, not to mention he doesn't know medical skills and can't sell elixirs at all."
"You can learn if you don't understand. Selling medicine is different from treating people. It doesn't require high medical skills." Su Yinyue said, "Besides, the pills I sell here are nothing more than those types. He can get started quickly.
of."
Qin Ye heard the secret and stared at Su Yinyue in disbelief: "Put it here? Do you want to sell your elixirs in Jishi Hall?"
"Yes, yes, I'll give you a stall fee." Su Yinyue nodded.
Jishitang was famous in the capital, and many wealthy families would come here to buy medicinal materials and elixirs. Su Yinyue wanted to take advantage of this convenience and subsidize the money from selling elixirs to the Huimin Pavilion.
The corner of Qin Ye's mouth twitched rarely. He had spent many years of hard work to open the Jishi Hall, but she was going to use it like this?
He said coldly: "No, this is my pharmacy."
Su Yin Yue smiled half-heartedly and said: "Why did I hear the prince say that when you opened a medicine shop, General Qin didn't agree with it, so he cut off your monthly silver. Later, when you couldn't afford to eat, the prince gave you a
A pen of silver…”
"Okay!" Qin Ye's forehead had veins popping out. How did the couple look like each other? Or maybe Su Yinyue had learned Chu Jifeng's tricks and was good at bullying others.
"Did Mr. Qin agree?"
Qin Ye pointed to a spot and said, "Here it is for you. Although you refined the elixir, if something goes wrong, the Jishi Hall will be the one to blame. Don't hurt me."
"Of course." Su Yinyue hurriedly asked Lin Heng to go over and put the pills she brought one by one.
Qin Ye knew that she was good at refining elixirs, so he went over to take a look and found that her elixirs were sold for fifty taels a piece!
"Are you trying to steal money? Who can afford it?" Qin Ye picked up one and smelled it. It was a Baoxin Pill, but it had a slightly different smell from the usual Baoxin Pill. It should be Su Yinyue's secret recipe.
.
But even so, this kind of ordinary elixir shouldn't be so expensive.
Su Yinyue said: "You don't understand. Only rich families will buy pills like Baoxin Dan. Naturally, I have to sell them more expensively."
Qin Ye understood: "So you came to defraud others on purpose?"
"It's not intentional." Su Yinyue blinked her big eyes and said seriously, "I clearly marked the price, and I am willing to buy and sell. What's more, the elixir I refined is much more powerful than ordinary medicines. This is the only one who bought it.
It’s definitely not a loss.”
Qin Ye was speechless and unable to refute.
Su Yinyue then went to teach Lin Heng the medicinal properties of the elixir, and after a while, he remembered it in his mind.
It's just that when people who come here to buy medicine hear that the Baoxin Pill costs fifty taels, they quickly shake their heads and don't want to buy it at all.
On the first day, I naturally had zero income.
Qin Ye was not surprised, and he persuaded Su Yinyue to sell it cheaper so as not to damage her self-confidence.
It happened that Chu Jifeng came to pick him up at this time. When he heard this, his face darkened: "What did you say?"
Qin Ye's heart skipped a beat, why did Chu Jifeng look like he wanted to eat people?
Chu Jifeng added: "The elixir refined by my wife cannot be less than a copper coin, so we can only sell this much!"
After hearing this, Su Yinyue raised a smile and grabbed Chu Jifeng's hand: "Would you like to buy one so that I can do some business today?"
The corners of Chu Jifeng and Qin Ye's mouths twitched.
Especially Chu Jifeng, he thought to himself, if he had known this, he would not have come today.
But Su Yinyue pestered him, so he could only wave his hand and ask Chang Wuying to buy all the pills to support his wife.
Qin Ye looked at him with a look on his face that he was asking for more blessings. If Su Yin Yue's elixirs were unable to be sold in the future, Chu Jifeng would probably have to deal with the aftermath.
Unexpectedly, Su Yinyue put two pills for him and said, "Thank you, husband. Please take it."
Chu Jifeng narrowed his eyes: "Didn't I buy them all?"
"The Heart-Basing Pill is of no use to you. If you don't use it, then there's no need to waste it, right?" Su Yinyue said.
Chang Wuying was dissatisfied and said, "Your Majesty, you can give it away."
Such a small amount of elixirs cost hundreds of taels of silver, so what's the point of just giving two pills?
Even if you are your own wife, you can't be so deceptive, right?
Who knew that Chu Jifeng pulled back the broken hair on her temples and said obediently: "Yes, Madam is right."
Qin Ye didn't want to watch anymore and urged the two of them to leave quickly so as not to delay Jishitang's business.
Su Yinyue was so happy after making her first business deal that she said she would treat Chu Jifeng to a meal to celebrate.
However, Chu Jifeng looked happy and did not feel that he was at a disadvantage at all. He even asked Su Yinyue to refine some more elixirs so that he could go and buy them tomorrow.
Chang Wuying was dumbfounded, is this okay?
After the fun, Su Yinyue looked tired and said: "It's so boring to let you buy it. It seems that my method won't work."
Chu Jifeng couldn't stand her appearance the most, so he hugged her and said, "It's only the first day. After a few days, your elixir will naturally be easy to sell."
Su Yinyue curled her lips, feeling a little uncomfortable.
It's not that she had never been a shrimp in her previous life, but later on she became successful, and once those medicines and injections had her name on them, she didn't have to worry about selling them. It seemed that everything had to start from scratch.
Chu Jifeng didn't know what to comfort her, so he just hugged her.
As soon as they returned to Prince Ling's Mansion, the housekeeper came up to them and said, "Your Majesty, Mrs. Song and Mrs. Prime Minister are here. They have been waiting for a long time."
Chu Jifeng frowned slightly: "What are they doing here?"
When female relatives come to visit, they usually come to look for Su Yinyue, but Chu Jifeng also has to go and say hello.
Mrs. Song and the Prime Minister's wife drank two cups of tea and were very happy to finally see Su Yin Yue back.
