The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 384 The Fourth Miss's Who

This was the second time that the Shi family gave the shop to Ye Wenyan. The first time was the clinic, which Ye Wenyan confiscated.

This time, Madam Shi personally stepped in. She felt that no matter what, Ye Wenyan had to take over the shop.

She said to Ye Wenyan, "I know that Miss Four is also familiar with the jewelry store of the Lin family in the inner city. Miss Four also mentioned it when she sent someone to pass on the message last time, saying that the craftsman was able to contact the Ying family thanks to the help of the Lin family. I am really happy for Miss Four. The craftsman of the Ying family is the best craftsman in Northern Qi. Miss Four, don't worry, our Shi family's business cannot be extended to the inner city, and the Lin family in the inner city is unwilling to operate in the outer city, so there is no conflict between the two families. Occasionally, when we receive a detailed order, we will go to the inner city to ask the Lin family for help."

She said this mainly to reassure Ye Wenyan, "You run your business, and the Lin family runs theirs. No one will hinder anyone else." Ye Wenyan nodded, "That's true."

Madam Shi was very happy. "The fourth young lady wanted to run a jewelry store. I also searched for a few days in the outer city, but after searching for a long time, I decided not to bother with it. You can just use this one. We have our own store, why would we buy someone else's? Besides, after buying an empty store, we have to fix it up, and it's hard to say how long it will take to open it! The weather is getting warmer, it's a good time to wear jewelry."

After saying that, he looked at Ye Wenyan again, with a puzzled look on his face, "Oh, it's almost March 15th, why is the fourth young lady still wearing such heavy clothes? Are you... afraid of the cold?"

Ye Wenyan wrapped her clothes tighter and breathed out. There was no more white frost that would rise with a single breath in winter, but the bone-chilling cold still attacked her all the time.

March 15th is almost here! I've been so busy lately that I almost forgot about this day.

"I'm afraid of the cold. I've had this problem since I came back from the suburbs on the second day of the twelfth lunar month. It's okay. I'll get better slowly." She told Mrs. Shi, "I'll try to get better after summer. Otherwise, if I keep myself wrapped up so tightly in summer, people will look at me like a monster when I walk on the street."

When Mrs. Shi heard this, her eyes were filled with heartache and she almost threw herself on Ye Wenyan and cried.

Even if she didn't cry, she would still stamp her feet and curse, cursing Ye Hongzhuang and that damn Sixth Prince.

The maid of the Shi family turned pale with fear. She kept reminding her wife to speak softly. The more she reminded, the angrier she became: "Why should I speak softly? Why should I speak softly? They killed people openly and justifiably, and robbed the bride just as it should be. Why should I speak softly when I curse them? Who gave them the face? What's wrong with the Sixth Prince? I don't care what prince he is. He can't bully the Fourth Miss! Not to mention that he is not here today, even if he stood in front of me, I would dare to point at his nose and curse his eight generations of ancestors!"

The little maid covered her face and prayed silently in her heart, hoping that her words would not be heard by someone with ulterior motives, as that would be fatal.

But Madam Shi was really not afraid. She knew who Ye Wenyan was. Even if he wasn't that famous, it didn't matter. Ye Wenyan was her husband's lifesaver. The grace of saving a life was greater than heaven, so she was willing to sacrifice anything for him.

Ye Wenyan laughed when he heard it, and Zhuier laughed too. He raised his hand and patted the little maid and said, "Don't be afraid, Madam Shi is right to scold her. I have scolded her many times before. It's okay."

Seeing Ye Wenyan looking around the jewelry store again, Madam Shi quickly changed the subject: "Fourth Miss, you must not refuse this time, and don't think about doing business with our Shi family anymore. The Shi family will never participate in this business. We can't always give you half of the money for nothing. The family owes you a life, and we also took so many pills from you. To be honest, we all know in our hearts that this shop is not enough to buy all your pills, so you really don't have to be polite to us this time."

A shop assistant handed over the account book, and Madam Shi flipped through it a few times to show her. "Look, actually this shop is just a little bigger, but it doesn't make much money, because our main business is not jewelry, but inns and restaurants. Jewelry shops and clinics are just casually opened, and they are really dispensable. So you can take it! The shop was renovated last year, it's still new, and you can use it directly. But we have agreed that none of the shop assistants can be given to you, and our business is short of manpower. If you want to hire someone, you have to buy and find them yourself, don't think about these assistants."

Mrs. Shi spoke very seriously, and Ye Wenyan turned her head to look at her with a smile on her face.

She knew that this was not a question of whether there was a shortage of people, but that the Shi family wanted to make her feel at ease and give her a store that was completely her own, not even wanting to keep a single clerk, and using all her own people.

She said sincerely, "Thank you."

Mrs. Shi was a little embarrassed. "No need to thank me. This is what I should do. My family likes you. If it weren't for that person, I would fight for my son no matter what."

"Who, who?" Ye Wenyan suddenly stuttered.

Madam Shi winked at her, "That guy! Oh, let's not talk about it. Anyway, this shop is handed over to you. Here is the title deed, keep it safe. I have also been to the government office, and the Shi family has completed all the procedures. You just need to take it to change the name and file it." She sighed as she spoke, "Speaking of which, it is easy to get things done if there is someone in the upper echelons! Since the Shi family and you, the fourth young lady, jointly opened the Shixuan Medical Clinic, Lin'an Prefecture, which used to not treat merchants from the outer city very well, is now polite to the Shi family. No matter what we do, we can get special care from the prefect. This is all thanks to the fourth young lady!"

Ye Wenyan took the deed in his hand, folded it a few times and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket. In fact, he put it into the storage space.

"Then I won't be polite to Madam Shi. Anyway, we will visit each other frequently in the future, and it would be hypocritical for me to be more polite."

Madam Shi was very happy. "That's right! We are all family, why should we be polite? Well, you guys just wait and see. I will get the people to pack up and follow me back to the Shi family. Then, the fourth young lady will take care of what to do here."

Mrs. Shi was not only straightforward, but also impetuous. She would come and go as she pleased. Before Ye Wenyan even waited for his nod, she had already taken her maid to ask the shop assistants and the shopkeeper to start packing the packages.

Not only did they put away their own things, but they also put away the jewelry on the counter, packing what needed to be boxed and what needed to be boxed. There were several large carriages waiting outside, and people filled the carriages with boxes, and then left the jewelry store in a mighty procession, led by Mrs. Shi.

By the way, I took down the plaque before leaving.

Zhuier stared at the empty shop in amazement, "This move is too quick, and it's too fast."

Shangguan Xiaoya even analyzed: "Could there be something wrong with the shop? It looks like he ran away."

Ying Nantian shook his head, "What could be the problem? The Shi family is a well-known merchant in the outer city. If there was a problem with such a big shop, something would have happened long ago. Why would they wait until today?" As he spoke, he walked over and closed the door of the shop. When someone outside asked what happened to the shop, he answered casually - "The shop has a new owner, and the original owner transferred the shop to us. It will be renovated in the next few days, and will reopen soon." When people heard this, they stopped worrying about it and soon dispersed.

When Ying Nantian came back, he told Ye Wenyan, "If we want to open the shop, we have to make a lot of finished products first. The two of us are not enough. I have been thinking about this these days. The Ying family still has many young people who can be apprentices. Why not let Shangguan and I take them and help out? Master, rest assured, the delicate work will be completed by the two of us, and the marks that the master mentioned before will also be carved by the two of us. In addition, I also hope that the master can give some simple patterns that can be handed over to the apprentices to make, and the price can be set relatively low, so that it will be easier to gain a foothold in the outer city."

Shangguan Xiaoya also agreed with this. "After all, the people in the outer city can't afford the money that the people in the inner city can afford. If our jewelry is too expensive, they can't afford it. Since the master's goal is to circulate these jewelry, then the price must be set well."

Ye Wenyan also thought of this. She took the two booklets from Zhuier and handed one to each of them.

"One of them is more complicated and more expensive. The other one is for common people, with simpler craftsmanship and cheaper price. All of them are hand-painted by me, and they are unique. You can choose the craftsmen and apprentices by yourself, and you have the final say on who will make them. But one thing is that all the people working in this shop, even if you don't check their ancestors for eight generations, at least check their ancestors for three generations, and make sure they have a clean background. Even if they are members of the Ying family, you have to consider whether their character is upright."

Ying Nantian and Shangguan Xiaoya nodded seriously. Ying Nantian said, "Master, please rest assured that we will be very strict in selecting people. But apart from the skilled craftsmen in the backyard, we can't do anything about the people in the shop in front. You have to find them yourself. In addition, if you want to spread these jewelry, you can't rely on this shop alone. You have to open such a shop in each province in the future. Of course, this is a later story. The most urgent thing right now is the clerks and shopkeepers in front."

Ye Wenyan also knew that this was a key issue. There are clerks and shopkeepers. There is only one shopkeeper, but there must be many clerks.

And just like what my wife said just now, it is not always easy for a male clerk to sell jewelry. How can a woman be more attentive and more convenient? Especially if a woman is the clerk, she can help customers try on the jewelry. Those customers who come to see the jewelry will feel more considerate when they see that the person selling things is a young girl, and they will not feel embarrassed.

This is something that male guys can't do.

She started to target the girls, and then moved on to the injured patients she had treated when the earth dragon turned over.
