When the shopkeeper Gu heard that Mrs.
Shang was going to entertain him in person, he came over in a shaky carriage.
Shopkeeper Gu was over sixty years old and looked steady and honest.
He bowed politely to Li Ge after seeing him.
Li Ge hurriedly greeted him: "Mr.
Gu, you are so polite.
It should be Zisang who goes to see you."
Shopkeeper Gu said hurriedly: "Where are you, if I know that my wife has recovered, I should come to visit earlier."
Li Ge secretly laughed in his heart.
The fact that she was kidnapped by the robbers and lost her memory should have reached the ears of these people long ago, but no one came to visit.
It would be a bit far-fetched to say this at this time.
But we can't blame them.
Ever since Mr.
Shang passed away, Shang Liu has not taken the initiative to meet with them once.
Even if something happened, it would be reasonable for them not to come.
It's no wonder that as soon as shopkeeper Gu heard that Li Ge had seen him, he immediately ran over.
People are not difficult to get along with, they just need to pay each other.
Li Ge decided to extend an olive branch to these people on behalf of Shang Liushi first, and then decide what to do.
Sure enough, accompanied by Lao Zhong and after a few glasses of rice wine, Shopkeeper Gu's expression softened.
Li Ge smiled and poured him a glass of wine himself, and said, "If it weren't for you, shopkeeper Gu, over the years, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Zisang to support such a large family business alone."
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Gu looked ashamed: "To be honest with you, madam, after the master passed away, many important decisions of this pharmacy did fall on us, but we also know that madam, you are not good at business.
So I took the initiative to take over this burden, but business has been difficult in recent years.
We don’t have a backbone, and we are also lazy.”
What he said is correct.
Since the big boss is no longer alive, the shopkeepers below can be considered conscientious if they can keep the drug store from losing money, not to mention that they have encountered a mistress like Shang Liu who is unreasonable and unsophisticated.
Li Ge took a deep breath, picked up a glass of rice wine and said, "Sang, the shopkeeper, since I am a businessman, I should take responsibility for this business, so I take the liberty to invite you over to discuss how to meet with other shopkeepers in three days." thing" Shopkeeper Gu said: "Madam, I just want to ask you why you suddenly want to meet everyone."
Li Ge motioned for Zhong Ma to bring over the account book, and opened one of the pages, pointing it out to Shopkeeper Gu: "Sang, Shopkeeper Gu, would like to ask for advice.
Every month in every pharmacy, there are several transactions that go unaccounted for.
I have estimated what the expenditures are.
These unexplained expenditures of each pharmacy account for 30% of the total income."
Shopkeeper Gu took a look and sighed: "This expense has been going on every month since the master was alive.
None of us know where these funds are going."
Li Ge was slightly surprised: "When he was alive" Shopkeeper Gu nodded: "When every drug store opens, he has already set this rule for everyone.
Every month, all shopkeepers will deposit a fixed amount of banknotes into the bank.
As for where it will go, none of us have any idea. clear" "Then why does this rule have to continue after his death?"
Li Ge couldn't help but ask.
Since it was Mr.
Shang who wanted to save private money, but a few years after his death, there was still this expense in these account books.
"Madam, you don't know, this is a death rule set by Mr.
Shang before he passed away.
As long as this drug store is operating, it must deposit 30% of its monthly income into the money bank.
If anyone does not comply, the chamber of commerce he entrusted will directly Close the medicine shop.
"Your Majesty, you lost a demon queen
