Tian Xuerong glanced at Qi Ning and saw that Qi Ning was calm and calm. She knew what Qi Ning meant and said softly: "As long as Lu Ziheng takes back those words, I... I won't pursue them." She thought that Qi Ning had beaten Lu Ziheng into a human figure. , which can be regarded as giving that guy enough punishment.
Jiang Mantian said with a smile: "Tian Dong's family is really generous." After coughing, the followers behind him immediately came forward.
Two attendants carried something covered with red silk, walked not far from Qining, put it down, and asked another attendant to hold a brocade box and deliver it to Jiang Mantian, while the other two attendants He held the other two brocade boxes and placed them on the table beside Tian Xuerong.
Qi Ning remained calm and said with a smile: "What do you two mean by this?"
Jiang Mantian stepped forward, presented the brocade box in his hand, and said: "Master Hou, this is the geographical chronicle of the East China Sea compiled by ordinary people. It took a lot of thought and research to verify the truth. Please give me some advice."
Qi Ning said "Oh", stood up and took it, opened it and took a look, and saw that there was indeed a book inside. He thought that Jiang Mantian was elegant in nature, and this gift-giving was also a literati style.
Jiang Mantian immediately went over and pulled open the red silk, and the room suddenly turned blood red. The eyes of Qi Ning and Tian Xuerong were attracted almost at the same time, and then they heard Tian Xuerong exclaim: "This... this is blood coral...!" They instantly covered their faces. Shut up and stare at the thing with a look of surprise.
The red silk was pulled open, and it turned out that there was indeed a coral inside, but the color of the coral was blood red, as if blood had been poured onto it. The coral had a strange shape and was extremely exquisite. The whole hall looked colorful because of the blood coral.
"Tian Dongjia has good eyesight." Jiang Mantian smiled and said in a calm tone: "This is blood coral obtained from the deep sea. In order not to damage the blood coral, more than ten warriors who are proficient in water properties were used. It took five or six days to salvage it. Although it is not very precious, it is still a rarity and I hope the Marquis will accept it."
The look of surprise in Tian Xuerong's eyes did not disappear, her soft lips moved slightly, but she finally said nothing.
As soon as Qi Ning saw the blood coral, he knew that it was definitely a rare treasure, and it was definitely worth a lot of money. He shook his head with a smile and said: "This thing is too valuable. I have accepted this East China Sea map. The blood coral... I still have it." You can't accept it." He laughed and said: "I have only been in the East China Sea for a few days. If I accept this blood coral, I am afraid that it will soon be spread on the streets that I have accepted bribes in the East China Sea."
Jiang Mantian also smiled brightly and said: "Master Hou is worrying too much. Although the ordinary people were not present at what happened today at the Chaoguan Tower, as the president of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, the ordinary people could not help but frighten Master Hou at the annual meeting. Blame. This blood coral has not been put on the counter and has never been shown to outsiders. Whether it is valuable or not depends on each person. To put it harshly, it is just a stone in the sea. It is a rare time for the Marquis to come to the East China Sea. It is given to ordinary people. Looking at a rock on the seabed isn’t considered bribery, right?”
Qi Ning laughed and said: "President Jiang, since you said this, I would be disrespectful to reject it."
"Tian Dongjia, this is what Mr. Lu and I want, so you don't have to worry about taking bribes." Jiang Mantian always maintained a calm smile: "It's our Chamber of Commerce's fault that you were frightened in the Chaoguan Tower today. Can you ignore the past grudges? Mr. Lu and I are very grateful." He raised his hand and said with a smile, "Tian Dong's family might as well open it and take a look to see if you like it."
Tian Xuerong glanced at Qi Ning and saw Qin Ning nodding slightly, then reached over and opened one of the brocade boxes. Compared with Qi Ning's box, the two brocade boxes given to Tian Xuerong were much larger.
Opening the lid of the box, the first thing that appeared in Tian Xuerong's eyes was a few documents. She was a little surprised and reached out to pick it up. Under the documents, there was actually a box full of pearls. They were as bright and clear as snow. They were the best at first glance. pearl.
"Tian Dong's family will take a look at these documents first. If there are no problems, you can sign and pledge them now." Jiang Mantian said with a smile: "In order to express his apology, Mr. Lu donated a shop on Hetai Street in Gulin City to Mr. Tian’s house. Hetai Street is the most prosperous street in Gulin City. The shop transferred by Mr. Lu has a total of six rooms and four floors. It used to be the main store of Guiyuantang. Now it has begun to be cleaned up. Tonight It can be cleaned up before the time comes.”
Tian Xuerong's face turned pale and she said in surprise: "This...how is this allowed?"
"Tian Dong family, if you refuse, I will never be able to kneel down again." Lu Feihang pretended to kneel down again, and said sincerely: "What the traitor did today has made people and gods angry. The Tian Dong family can ignore the past grudges, and I can't thank you. I heard that I can't thank you for it. Mr. Tian’s family is planning to set up shop in Donghai. The location of that shop is excellent and there are many customers coming and going. As long as the shop is open, we can do business."
Tian Xuerong hurriedly stopped her, wondering: "Mr. Lu, actually I have already looked for a shop in the East China Sea, you...!"
"The shop you are looking for can be used for other purposes." Lu Feihang said: "The shop donated by the old man is the most suitable for the medicinal materials business. The old man also heard that the Tian Dong family came to the East China Sea this time with medicine. To save the people of the East China Sea, with such a bodhisattva-like heart, the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce will naturally help us with all our strength."
"That's right." Jiang Mantian nodded and said: "After the Tian family medicine store is established in Donghai, all kinds of medicinal materials can be sold. Moreover, President Miao means that the Tian family is smart and capable, and is a hero among women. He intends to give up the medicine store chamber." As for the position of president, if Mr. Tian’s family is willing, they can take on this responsibility.”
"No." Tian Xuerong said immediately: "President Jiang, Mr. Lu, and President Miao are the most suitable candidates for the president of the Medicine Store Chamber of Commerce. I... I have just arrived here, and I am not familiar with the East China Sea, and even if the Tian family medicine shop is located in the East China Sea, No., I will only send people to operate here, and I will not be here all the time, so...!"
Jiang Mantian nodded and said: "In this case, we will persuade President Miao to continue to shoulder the heavy responsibility. However, the Tian family must also promise us to sign the transfer document and come to the East China Sea as soon as possible with the medicinal materials from your Tian family medicine store to rescue the people. .Yes, I heard that the Tian Dong family is going to open a workshop to make medicine directly in Donghai. What kind of workshop is needed? The price is given to the Tian family medicine store." He smiled softly and said, "This can be regarded as taking care of Guiyuantang's business. What do you think of Mr. Tian's family?"
Qi Ning had previously said that he would help Tian Xuerong solve the problem of Tian's Pharmacy setting up an account in the East China Sea. Tian Xuerong knew that since Qi Ning came forward, there should be hope for the matter, but he never expected that things would go so smoothly.
She previously only thought about setting up a small shop in the East China Sea, and then selling medicines to treat intestinal dysentery. Regarding the business in the East China Sea, Tian Xuerong never thought about how much profit she could make from the beginning. She just followed Tang Nuo and Qi's business. Ning's intention was to leave a good impression in their hearts. In addition, she also wanted to make Tian's Medicine Store more famous. She knew that as long as she obeyed Tang Nuo and Qining's wishes, she would not have to worry about having other miraculous prescriptions in the future. .
However, the conditions Jiang Mantian proposed now were already extremely generous. If Jiang Mantian, the president of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, had not said it himself, Tian Xuerong would have found it unbelievable.
Not only did he donate the best shop in Guiyuantang to himself, but he also allowed himself to sell all kinds of medicinal materials at will in Donghai. This gift alone to any medicine shop in Donghai would be enough to make them grateful and ecstatic. In addition, Jiang Mantian let Tian Family Medicine Materials for medicine can be imported from Guiyuantang. It is said that it is taking care of Guiyuantang's business, but in fact it is also a disguised show of goodwill to the Tian family medicine shop. In the final analysis, it is a good show of goodwill to Qining.
The offer was so generous that Tian Xuerong didn't know how to refuse it for a moment.
Qi Ning finally said at this time: "President Jiang, Mr. Lu, please sit down and talk first."
The two of them saluted Qi Ning, thanked him, and sat on the chairs opposite Tian Xuerong.
"When I came to Donghai, I heard some rumors." Qi Ning said with a smile: "Some people say that the Tian Family Medicine Company was able to expand its business into the Taiyuan Hospital because the Tian Dong family had a good reputation. To put it bluntly, it means that the Tian Family Medicine Company was able to do business in the Imperial Hospital. After we made a good deal with the Jinyihou Mansion, I, the Jinyihou Mansion, worked behind the scenes, and this allowed the Tian Family Medicine Store to rise to the top in one step, and the business grew bigger and bigger."
Tian Xuerong thought that this was the truth, but she didn't know that Qining Weihe said it so straightforwardly.
Jiang Mantian smiled and said: "Master Hou, Donghai is hundreds of miles away from the capital, and the habits of Donghai people are that they like to stay at their bedside and are unwilling to travel far away. They don't know much about things outside. Whenever there is a little bit of news, it will be added to the story, and the time travel will be more and more outrageous, and in the end it will be complete nonsense. The business of Tianjia Medicine Store is booming, and ordinary people have heard a little bit about it, and they don’t know much, but they also know that Tianjia Medicine Store is making progress. The Taiyuan Hospital cannot be the reason mentioned by those weird rumors. Just imagine how important the Taiyuan Hospital is. It is a place for the palace to treat diseases. The medicinal materials used are of no small importance. If the Tian family medicine shop does not have the best medicinal materials, how can it be admitted? Too much hospital?"
Qining gave a thumbs up and said: "President Jiang is a sensible person. He pointed out the problem in just one sentence." He sighed and said: "To be honest, it is indeed possible for Tianjia Pharmacy to expand its business into Taiyuan Hospital." Because of the Jinyihou Mansion. You two may have heard that there was a sudden epidemic in the capital before, and countless people suffered from it in a short period of time, but the epidemic was quickly eliminated in a short period of time, what is the reason? " He raised his hand and pointed at Tian Xuerong and said: "Many people don't know that it was precisely because the Tian Family Medicine Store had stocked a large amount of medicinal materials that could treat the epidemic that many people escaped death and Beijing was spared an embarrassment."
Jiang Mantian suddenly realized: "So that's it. Common people know about this. It turns out that Tian Family Medicine Store helped to withstand that crisis."
Tian Xuerong's face was a little hot, thinking that the real hero of that crisis was Qi Ning. When Qi Ning asked her for medicinal materials, she seemed to have put forward some conditions. Unexpectedly, Qi Ning would take the credit for herself at this time. .
"It is precisely because the Tian family has made such a great contribution that the Jinyi Qi family understood the imperial court's intention and helped the Tian family medicine store enter the Imperial Hospital. President Jiang is right. If it weren't for the fact that the medicinal materials of the Tian family medicine store are really good, I think Helping is not enough." Qi Ning smiled and said: "In the final analysis, I just want to tell you two that if you are loyal to the court and help the court solve problems, the court will never treat you badly."
Jiang Mantian and Lu Feihang immediately stood up, cupped their hands and said, "I am willing to be loyal to the imperial court, even if I die!"
Tian Xuerong looked at Qining and felt that the more she looked at it, the better she looked. Today at the Guanchao Building, she stood up to save her from the siege with the dignity of a marquis. She was already extremely moved. At this moment, she not only solved the problem of the Tian family medicine shop setting up a number in the East China Sea question, and in a few words, he explained the reason why Tianjia Medicine Store entered Taiyuan Hospital with the most reasonable reason. He knew that it was really difficult to repay the favors he owed.
"Master Hou, today the common people know the truth of the matter. The common people are here to assure the Marquis that no one in the Donghai Chamber of Commerce will gossip behind their backs and slander the reputation of Dong Tian's family." Jiang Mantian said sternly: "If the common people If I know that someone is making random arrangements, I will definitely argue with him and send him to the government. I will never tolerate it."
Qi Ning looked pleased: "President Jiang said this, I am relieved." He turned to look at Tian Xuerong and said: "Mr. Tian, you are so proud today. President Jiang came to help in person. You handled the matter of setting up an account for the medicine store, and Mr. Lu also gave you a store. You haven't thanked the two of you for such a big favor."
Tian Xuerong was startled, wondering if she really wanted to accept these generous conditions dropped from the sky. Seeing Qining staring at her, she could only take two steps forward and salute and thank her.
