Siheyuan: Rebirth in a prosperous era, great doctors are sincere

By the mid-1930s, Changchun Hall and the Sun Family had reached their peak.

Boss Sun asked Zhang Ziyu, the shopkeeper of Changchundang, to co-found Yi Zhao Department Store.

In the past, buying and selling shops were not all single-category specialty stores. There were also comprehensive sales stores. But in the early years, they were mostly called warehouses and goods yards. Such stores that focused on wholesale and supplemented by retail were generally called grocery stores or grocery stores. Beipingtou A store named "Department Store" should be Yi Zhao.

Qianmen is not only the common name of the main gate of the inner city, Zhengyang Gate, but also the name of the place near the city gate. It is also a long-established and prestigious commercial district in the capital, older than the "Golden Street" Wangfujing.

The name Yi Zhao means business is booming and it means billionaire.

The store has strong capital and sufficient supply of goods. It mainly deals in goods from Shanghai and Japan. There are dedicated agents in these two places.

With sufficient and monopolized supply of goods, professional and advanced marketing concepts, it is difficult to think well about the business of Yizhao. It is not an exaggeration to say that we are making a lot of money every day.

Making a lot of money is bound to make people jealous, especially in that turbulent era.

Historically, Yizhao Department Store has been hit many times. Once, a warlord was short of money for a war, so he led his troops to Yizhao to "raise" military supplies. In fact, he was forced to do so. The officer said: "Your name is Yizhao, which proves how powerful you are." Tens of billions, asking you to donate one million oceans is not much, right?"

The general manager shook his head and said: "It's just for good luck. Where can I have so much money?"

The officer said: "If you don't have one million, let's pay half a million! This way, I won't let you pay for it in vain. If you see it, I will sell it to you."

As he pointed out, the general manager looked in the direction of his finger. Okay, Qianmen building!

I thought to myself: "If you dare to sell, I dare not buy."

I was forced to do nothing, but I couldn't come up with so much cash, so I had to pay for it with goods.

It is said that they took goods worth half a million yuan and spent a whole day and night there.

The officers and soldiers took advantage, and the matter was settled.

But this Qianmen building has a history of being "sold" for the second time in name only.

In fact, this story is somewhat like folklore, and I don’t know whether it is true or not.

However, during the Republic of China, it was true that wealthy politicians took the lead in stripping away imperial city walls in exchange for money.

To put it bluntly, it means selling the demolished city bricks and building materials to wealthy people for building houses.

The Imperial City was the place where the emperor lived. If you build a house with their bricks, doesn't it mean you are enjoying the treatment of the emperor? This was a kind of "soul comfort" for those rich and powerful people at that time.

If you buy these materials, you can brag about it for several years.

The Dong'anli Gate in the capital disappeared because of this.

During the Anti-Japanese War.

Japanese medicines such as Rendan and Baodan have made a comeback, and with the support of the invaders, Changchundang's medicines cannot compete with them at all, and they dare not sell them with great fanfare.

Because they had had disputes with Japanese drug dealers before, even if they wanted to be "good citizens", they couldn't.

The Japanese manufacturer selling Rendan reported Changchundang for any reason.

The Japanese military police detained the general manager of Yi Zhao and the shopkeeper of Changchun Hall in the name of "hoarding and disrupting the market." Finally, they took out 70,000 silver dollars to settle the matter.

Silver dollars are not the various counterfeit coins issued by the Japs in China. Even for the Sun family, giving the Japs 70,000 silver dollars is a pain in the neck.

After that, many Japanese rogues came to Changchun Hall to cause trouble, threatening to buy the prescription of Biwensan.

Where would Boss Sun be willing to sell it?

After he rejected the Japanese prodigal, disaster occurred in Changchun Hall, and a fire burned the entire Changchun Hall.

The Sun family also thought about making a comeback.

but.

No matter where they moved, they were surrounded by Japanese rogues.

Anyway.

It just doesn’t work without selling them the prescription.

Although he has not killed anyone for the time being, Boss Sun also understands that there will be no good results if he keeps delaying like this.

A cruel heart.

Boss Sun sold all his shares in the stores, including Yi Zhao Store, and quietly took his family to Guotou District to open a branch.

This departure.

More than ten years have passed.

There is actually no trace of the Sun family.

Before leaving.

Boss Sun gave shopkeeper Zhang all the prescriptions accumulated by the Sun family over several lifetimes, including Biwensan, claiming that he wanted him to spread these prescriptions to the world and continue to treat diseases and save people.

After the Sun family left, shopkeeper Zhang became the largest shareholder of Yi Zhao Department Store.

After the Sun family withdrew from the business and medical circles in Peiping, the life of Yizhao Store was not easy either.

After the Japanese surrendered, the national political tycoon forced Yi Zhao to pay a fine of 50,000 yuan on the grounds that Yi Zhao had liaison with the Eighth Route Army and violated the price limit policy.

After solution.

The business of Yizhao Store is now on the right track.

but.

More than ten years have passed.

Things are wrong.

Even the head of the Zhang family has changed, and Boss Zhang has been busy with Yi Zhao's business and has never paid attention to the affairs of Changchundang.

Not long ago, Boss Zhang remembered his father’s instructions when he was still alive, asking him to carry forward Changchun Hall.

Boss Zhang wanted to reopen Changchun Hall. When he was looking for a house on Qianmen Street, he saw the Chen family's small courtyard.

When I asked around about the landlord, I was told that the small courtyard had been rented out, and it was also a medicine hall. Huirentang immediately signed a ten-year contract with the landlord.

Boss Zhang talked to Song Cheng, Jin Gui and others and said that he wanted them to sublet it at a high price, but he was rejected.

He found out that Li Ping'an was the middleman and had a good relationship with the landlord and Huirentang.

By chance, when Boss Zhang and Li Cheng were having dinner together, they learned that he and Li Ping'an knew each other, and wanted Li Cheng to come over and make peace.

As long as Li Pingan can talk to Huirentang, both Huirentang and Chen Xueru will get a good compensation.

"This thing is very difficult to do. I'm afraid I can't help you!" Li Ping'an shook his head and said: "If you could have said it earlier, I might have directly suggested that the landlord rent the yard to Boss Zhang at a high price. How could you do this? trouble?"

After the public-private partnership, many things became a little more complicated.

Public-private joint ventures are handled by local industrial bureaus, and after the joint ventures are managed, they will be handed over to the commerce bureaus.

The contract was signed and the rent was paid to Chen Xueru in one lump sum. How could Song Cheng and Jin Gui not report the matter?

Can things that have been reported to the Commerce Bureau be changed?

impossible!

If the small courtyard of the silk shop is really transferred to Boss Zhang at this time, Song Cheng and the two of them, and even the entire Huirentang, will be reviewed by the Commerce Bureau.

"Is there really no other way?" Li Cheng asked a little disappointed.

Qin Huairu kept listening to the conversation between her husband and Li Cheng.

I heard that my husband could not help them.

Qin Huairu didn't eat any food and just ate the noodles in his bowl.

"No more!" Li Ping'an said: "Although I know all three of you, I can't force the other two parties to do anything for you!"
