There is a teahouse near the Yin County Yamen, which is a place for some servants who listen to the poor to rest. When the servants are in the morning every day, most of them will come here to sit leisurely. Let’s see what’s going on in the county and wait for the orders at any time. There is a elegant room on the second floor of the teahouse, and anger has already heard from it: “Isn’t it said that there is nothing else, don’t come to find my official in the yamen. Are you confused? If you have anything to say, don’t wait until I get the duty?”

The person who spoke was a thin and 40-year-old man. Because he was facing the window and looking at the Yin County Government in the street from the distance, he couldn't see his appearance clearly.

Zhao Gao stood behind him with his body bowed, daring to show his anger.

"After saying that, what the hell is it?"

Zhao Gao then breathed a long sigh and stuttered for a moment: "Borentang's business has plummeted. Since Sun Qi from Tongji Pharmaceutical Hall has recognized the nephew of the case leader, he is now booming. I believe he has heard about Hainingwei. Since that incident, many people in Ningbo City have regarded him as a miracle doctor, and there are endless people to consult. Borentang is now deserted..."

"Oh, are you talking about Ye Chunqiu? This person... I know a little about it. He is the new leader of the case, Xiao Sanyuan. He has been in the limelight recently, and the younger generation is terrifying."

Zhao Gao frowned and said, "But at the moment, Borentang is a little unsustainable. Today, Ye Chunqiu came to pay back the previous account, Tongjitang..."

"It's just these? Since they are booming, isn't it natural to pay off the debt at the end of the month? Did you not even expect these?" The person with his back to Zhao Gao was a little angry in his sentence.

Zhao Gao hurriedly said, "No, no, the villain does not mean this. The villain means that after Ye Chunqiu paid off the bill, he asked the villain to pass on a sentence to the adults, saying that from then on, Tongjitang and Borentang were irreconcilable, and said that the adults would not be able to eat."

After Zhao Gao finished speaking, he thought that the chief clerk would be angry at this time, but he expected that the elegant room would suddenly become quiet and the needles could be heard.

After a long time, the chief clerk let out a breath and couldn't help laughing: "Oh, is that so, I'm pretty aspiring, so let's try it. Who will win to death? It's not known that if someone else dares to say such a thing, I'll teach his family to be destroyed long ago, but this person... After all, he has become a big shot recently and has fame. Don't worry, governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food, let alone you and me. Everything must be planned before you move. In the past few days, you have stared at the Tongji Hall. That person is called Ye Chunqiu, right? Ye Chunqiu, it's interesting..."

"Yes, yes..." Although the chief clerk's tone was still plain, Zhao Gao still felt the calm tone of the chief clerk's tone, and hurriedly said: "The villain must be careful. If there is any news, please report it to the lord at any time."

The chief clerk sat down, his eyes still falling into the yamen opposite the street. He slowly said, "It's not far from winter, but Bing Jing from various ministries in Nanjing cannot be delayed. Tongji Hall..." He sneered, and the elegant room fell into silence again.

……………………

Beat Borentang.

When Ye Chunqiu said this, there was no possibility of going back on his word.

Of course, this matter has to be discussed with your uncle.

Sun Qi didn't come back to his senses for a long time, but this time, although he was a little confused, he did not act as panic as last time. Instead, he calmed down: "Chunqiu, I had heard that Borentang and the county chief clerk were unclear. I didn't expect that Borentang was his property. The so-called people did not fight with the officials. Although the chief clerk was a ninth-rank small official, he did not commit casual crimes. Chunqiu should be prepared."

Ye Chunqiu saw a little further than him: "Uncle, the chief clerk had the idea of ​​annexing Tongjitang. Now Tongjitang is famous and has a richer wealth. Will he let it go easily? Since he still has to face him sooner or later, it is better to turn passive into initiative than to sit and wait for death. I have already thought about it. We might as well raise some money to push the shop next door down and expand Tongjitang first. Now Tongjitang's business is getting better and better. In the future, more doctors and apprentices can be hired. Anyway, the prescription is in our hands, and there will only be more and more people coming here to see the doctor. Since we have turned aside, we can simply leave Borentang with no way out, let's see if he can hold on."

Ye Chunqiu's idea is very bold. Speaking of which, Tongjitang only covers an area of ​​about 100 square meters. As a clinic that makes a living, it is still okay. However, now it is famous and there are so many people who see a doctor. Both doctors and apprentices are not enough. How can Sun Qi and Ye Chunqiu be busy? But once you hire more people, the store will appear small. Since you want to make the business bigger, the storefront, manpower and medicinal materials must be increased. The storefront next door is not small, and the doctor and the staff have more than a dozen people, covering an area of ​​more than 300 square meters, but Borentang

The idea was not possible for the time being, but Ye Chunqiu fell in love with a shop on the other side of Tongji Hall. This place was originally a rice shop, but the business was not good. There were three in front and three and four hundred square meters in size. There was a large warehouse for storing grains at the front and a small courtyard at the back. It was nearly 1,000 square meters in total, and it was very large. If this rice shop could be bought and expanded to Tongji Pharmacy, then the Tongji Pharmacy would be extremely large. The front could be converted into a clinic hall. The back could not only store herbs, but also some places for doctors to rest, and prepare several warehouses to stockpile medicinal materials.

Tongjitang has a reputation, and there is no need to worry about no one coming. The only thing that is lacking is scale. With scale, more and more people will see doctors. However, because the scale is too small, many people look down on doctors, so they simply ask for consultation in Borentang next door. This undoubtedly caused the loss of patients. If the store is expanded, not only will Tongjitang's business flourish, but it can also snatch the last little patient resources of Borentang, leaving them with no way out.

When Sun Qi heard this, he was also moved. He knew the transactions over the past month and the business was very booming. He had no doubt that if the shop was expanded, Tongjitang's income would double. This pharmacy has the most reputation. Now, in Ningbo, who has the best reputation in addition to Tongjitang?
