Chen Xi learned from Hui Niang's words that some information was reported by the current deficit of the Yang Family Pharmaceutical Store, and it would take about 200 taels of silver to recover.

Originally, according to the Yang family's family's family's background, he could barely deal with it after selling his ancestral property, but the key is that Yang Ling and his brothers have many, so he cannot be arbitrary in many things, such as the family's property, he cannot sell it just by saying that it is sold.

This time, Yang Ling and his wife came here, and they wanted to borrow money by their intention, and helped Yang's drugstore through the crisis through this simplest and most effective method, but this was obviously not what Hui Niang was looking forward to.

"The money cannot be lent to my uncle's family. If they overcome the difficulties, they will at most return the money to us. We are embarrassed to accept the interest, but if they cannot overcome this hurdle, the money we lend will be wasted and it will be two or three hundred taels of silver, not a small amount!" Chen Xiyi said seriously.

Zhou's face was not very good: "No matter what, they are all Yi's family, just sit back and watch?"

Chen Xi touched his chin and pretended to be incredible: "Since my uncle's pharmacy has difficulties in operating it, it is not working now, and the market is not so good. Even if you lend them money, it will be a drop in the bucket. Just like the tea shop at home, it's half dead, and it's futile to fill in the money. It's better to hand over the pharmacy to us to operate it."

"Xiaolang, don't keep it in the way if you have anything to say. Even if we take over the Yang family pharmacy, it doesn't matter to the mansion, and it may not be able to manage it well."

Hui Niang had a stern face, but she couldn't bear to heart with Chen Xi. She just stared at him with a resentful face. This little look of losing her temper made Chen Xi feel that Hui Niang was acting coquettish and enjoyed it very much.

Chen Xi smiled and said, "If the current business model of the pharmacy shop is in progress, it will definitely not work. If the patient is sick, he will go to the doctor to see a doctor. After prescriptions, he will go to the pharmacy to get medicine. The doctor just opens his mouth and makes most of the money for the patient's medical treatment. The pharmacy naturally won't make much money."

"What should I do?"

Even if Hui Niang was extremely smart, she couldn't react at this time.

"We should sell medicines, prepare the medicine, and then find some unique and effective ancient prescriptions to deal with the diseases that patients suffer from. In this way, when people get sick, as long as they are not difficult and complicated diseases, they can go to our pharmacy to buy medicine. We can not only make more money, but also save the patients the expense of hiring doctors."

Chen Xi expressed his insights on running a pharmacy.

Hui Niang was shocked when she heard this: "Every doctor prescribes a prescription for a preparation medicine is different, and the patient's constitution and cause are different, so how can we just prepare medicine to delay the patient?"

Chen Xi laughed loudly.

In fact, the biggest feature of traditional Chinese medicine in ancient times was to provide psychological comfort treatment to patients through some divine things, making the patients think it is very effective. But in fact, many times, a common wind-cold prescription can prescribe dozens of kinds. The only real effective medicinal materials are only two of them. The others are used to fool people, showing the doctor's "exquisite medical skills" and unique methods, not to treat diseases for the sake of curing diseases.

Sometimes it is right about the problem of different physical constitutions of patients, but many times, as long as the right medicine is prescribed, any patient can use it without particularly increasing or decreasing a certain medicinal material. It is only based on factors such as adults or children, men or women, whether they have high drug resistance for a long time, etc., and the dosage can be increased or decreased as appropriate when dispensing the medicine.

The reason why Western medicine can gradually replace traditional Chinese medicine in later generations is mainly because it has high accuracy and no unreliable things such as "medicine induces" to save patients' expenses.

In fact, many drugs used in Western medicine are essentially not very different from traditional Chinese medicine. The drugs contain roughly the same ingredients. Just mix them with Chenxi and integrate the prescriptions to bring Chinese medicine to Western medicine, so that patients can buy medicines such as colds and fevers, unless they are acute, serious or difficult and complicated diseases.

However, for a long time, people have formed a fixed mindset, thinking that different people suffer from the same disease, and they must have different prescriptions and medicines. Therefore, when they get sick, they must first see a doctor, so that seeking medical treatment and asking for medicine will be separated, and the people will spend a lot of money in vain.

Chen Xi is now trying to change this mindset. As long as he can take out some ancient prescriptions he knows and modern Western medicine prescriptions, it can change the business model of the pharmacy after it is prepared.

Chen Xi finally said pertinently: "Aunt Sun, if we want to do big business, we must have a reform mind. I believe that Aunt Sun is the best person to do business. If Aunt Sun has doubts, then we can try it first in Ninghua County to see what the market response is?"

Even though Hui Niang has the ability and determination to reform, she still has great concerns about the production medicine business. After all, this is a major event that involves the life and death of the patients. Even if she is cautious, Chen Xi still understands it.

"Aunt Sun, don't worry too much. Let's do some patent medicines to treat minor problems first. If you have wind and cold cough, nothing big will happen, right?"

Hui Niang was relieved.

For ordinary people, minor diseases such as wind and cold do not require much attention. In fact, there are precedents among the people. Many people come to take medicine without prescriptions, especially for some minor problems and long-term patients. This phenomenon is very common.

Originally, it was about working with the Yang family to open a pharmacy shop in the mansion city, but suddenly, when it comes to selling finished medicine, Hui Niang became even more confused.

Chen Xi did not reluctantly agree immediately. Anyway, Yang Ling and his wife would come to discuss the borrowing of money again, and then we will discuss the details slowly.

But when he returned home that night, Zhou taught Chen Xi a lesson with dissatisfaction: "Silly, your Aunt Sun treats you well on weekdays. You can really tell you good ideas, but do you know many things that Zhou Xiang needs to consider? Since you talked about the preparation medicine today, your Aunt Sun's face has been wrong."

Chen Xi asked in confusion: "Did Aunt Sun suffer a loss in this matter before?"

Zhou thought for a while and said, "Forget you, I don't know the inside story. Maybe that's the case. The reason why your dead uncle wanted to run a pharmacy was because there was an ancient prescription in the family that specializes in treating malaria. As for what malaria is, it is difficult to explain it to you. After that, I took this medicine and died. I was sued and I had no choice but to leave my hometown. From now on, your Aunt Sun and your uncle were lonely outside. Do you know how pitiful you are?"

Chen Xi has known Hui Niang for so long, and the first time Chen Xi has known about this.

Before, Chen Xiyi thought that Hui Niang's husband had a conflict with his family and would travel thousands of miles to Ninghua to do business, but he didn't expect that there would be such a past.

Chen Xi shook his head: "No matter how good the prescription is, it may not be effective for everyone, especially those difficult and complicated diseases, and we cannot generalize it. Therefore, we will not make medicine for some serious and acute diseases."

"Since you know that the matter is serious, don't make any random suggestions. You are not allowed to mention this matter again in the future, do you know?"

Chen Xi stuck out his tongue, but was wondering what kind of prescription passed down by the Lu family. To talk about the special medicine for treating malaria, Chen Xi knew very well that it was Jinjinafen, which is the quinine used to treat malaria in later generations. Because this thing was not produced in China, it was not easy to get it. As for other folk remedies, it may not be effective.

However, following Zhou's instructions, Chen Xi did not mention anything about making medicine to Hui Niang for the time being.
