The Medicine Shop Next Door

He could not help but rub his eyes and read it again.

It didn’t change. Did that mean he wasn’t mistaken?

But…

Gu Dajiang looked up at Gu Yundong in a daze.

Gu Yundong looked puzzled. Her gaze fell on the account book. “Father, is there a problem?”

Zheng Gang, who was at the side, could not help but feel nervous. Was there a problem with the account book?

There couldn’t be. He had personally taken care of this account. Every payment was clearly recorded, and the goods purchased and sold were also clearly recorded. Before closing the shop every night, he would check again very carefully.

Gu Dajiang pointed at the number on the account book. “This shop earned 900 taels on the first day of opening??”

“That’s right.”

Gu Dajiang felt light-headed. Was he too inexperienced?

A small shop in a small county town. It actually made a net profit of 900 taels a day?

Or could it be that the disparity of wealth between Fengkai County and Jiangyu County was really so great that he thought that he had been a fake accountant a few years ago?

Gu Yundong finally understood what he meant. She could not help but laugh. “Father, this is the first day. You know that on the first day, people are greedy for fresh food. They have to come in to take a look at the new shop and then follow the trend to buy something. There won’t be much after that.”

Gu Dajiang heaved a sigh of relief. That was right.

However, 900 taels on the first day was still ridiculous.

Gu Dajiang took a sip of water to calm himself down and continued flipping to the second page.

600 taels.

On the third page, 500 taels.

On the fourth page, 500 taels.

The fifth page…

Don’t think that he couldn’t tell. It had earned less later on, but that was because it had imported less goods.

Gu Dajiang raised his head and looked at Gu Yundong. He felt that his grown­up daughter was probably a blow-dealer.

Was this the small business she was talking about? Could it be that the big business in her heart would earn tens of thousands of taels a day?

Poverty had limited his imagination.

Gu Dajiang was a little numb. Towards the end, perhaps because there was less and less white sugar, the price finally dropped a lot and became a little more normal.

However, new canned food was added later on, and the price began to rise again.

Seeing that her father was reading the account book seriously, Gu Dajiang took the time to ask Zhuangzi, “Why did the shop next door become a pharmacy?”

Zhuangzi was stunned and immediately smiled mysteriously. “Boss, that’s not an ordinary pharmacy. That’s Brother Shao’s new pharmacy.”

Gu Yundong’s eyes widened. “Shao Qingyuan’s shop?”

“Yes, it was opened about half a month ago.”

Gu Yundong’s interest was piqued. “I’ll go over and take a look.”

Previously, she had heard him say that he wanted to do a medicinal herb business. She did not expect him to move so quickly. He had already opened a shop in the county city, and it was next to her Gu’s.

Gu Yundong was still a little happy.

She turned around and walked towards the shop next door. Unexpectedly, Gu Dajiang’s sharp ears had already vaguely heard the words Shao Qjngyuan. He immediately closed the account book and followed behind.

Shao Qingyuan’s shop was smaller than her Gu’s. Perhaps it had just opened, so there were not many medicinal herbs.

There was a shop assistant in the shop who looked to be about the same age as Zhuangzi. At this moment, he was pounding medicine with a pestle.

Behind the counter was an old doctor.

When Gu Yundong entered, the shop assistant immediately put down his work and came up to her. “Miss, what medicine do you want to buy? Do you have a prescription?”

“I don’t have the prescription. I want to ask, do you have this medicine here?”
