Chapter 147 Every profession has its own expertise, and no one is better than her!
"Manager Mi, I plan to sell all the shops I own and buy the three-story store on the street."
Mi Zhenchuan put down the account book in his hand and said, "Fifth Miss, our store is already one of the largest in the rice industry. It would be a waste to move to a bigger place. We don't have that much business to do."
He knew that the place Ji Qingwu was talking about was the largest restaurant in the city.
"Who said we're going to open a grain store again?" she raised her eyebrows.
Mi Zhenchuan was surprised and asked, "What does Fifth Miss mean?"
Ji Qingwu expressed his plan: "Let's change to a new business and open a clinic. The first floor will be used as a pharmacy for dispensing and decocting medicines, and the second floor will be a clinic for doctors to see patients."
The largest medical clinic in Lin'an is Qingchuntang. Although the medical fees are high, the business has always been booming and there are long queues to see the doctor.
How can another clinic be better than Qingchuntang?
Ji Qingwu continued, "This clinic is different from other clinics."
Mi Zhenchuan was puzzled and asked, "Fifth Miss, what is the difference? I would like to hear the details."
Ji Qingwu's eyes were shining as he said, "I'm talking about a health clinic that's specifically opened for women of childbearing age. It can do physical examinations, treat infertility, and provide delivery and confinement care."
Mi Zhenchuan was speechless for a long time.
He is already over 40 years old. His first wife died in childbirth, along with the baby in her womb. He has never remarried since then.
Based on his years of business experience, this business was definitely profitable. Moreover, the women in Lin'an City were the ones who were in charge of the household expenses. It was easiest to make money from these women, which could be hundreds or thousands of times more than selling grain.
He sighed and said, "This is unheard of. If we can really open such a clinic, it will be a blessing for the women in Lin'an City, and it will also be a good business for us. However, the problem is, where can we find such a talented person?"
Ji Qingwu smiled slightly.
Mi Zhenchuan thought: "The city's miracle doctor Le Xi has excellent medical skills, but he has a weird personality. I'm afraid he is unwilling to come to the clinic to practice medicine."
Ji Qingwu said in a relaxed tone: "No need."
As the saying goes, every profession has its specialties. She is confident that no one is better than her at having children.
She was already famous in Southern Chu. After returning to Lin'an, her elder sister Ji Qingrong became pregnant after being nursed back by her. Many ladies knew of her abilities and wanted to seek her treatment, but were stopped by Qiao in secret.
Now is the right time to open a medical clinic and there are many benefits.
Anyone who wanted to seek medical treatment could come here to find her. It was easier to make money there. Moreover, establishing good relations with the wives of these officials could also serve as the basis for her to gain a foothold in Lin'an.
Mi Zhenchuan said worriedly: "If there is no famous doctor, I'm afraid it won't work."
Ji Qingwu said methodically, "Manager Mi, you don't have to worry about this matter, just leave it to me. I'd like to trouble you and your staff to help me find famous midwives in the city, as well as women who have been wet nurses in officials' families and have experience in raising children. Please come over someday so I can meet them."
Mi Zhenchuan saw that although she was young, at first glance, she looked a weak and naive woman.
But after getting to know her, he found that her face was extremely deceptive. Not only did she have bold ideas and a meticulous mind, but she was also able to put things into practical ways.
And the soft and slow tone of voice when speaking is inexplicably convincing.
Mi Zhenchuan said: "Fifth Miss, don't worry, we will get started right away."
Ji Qingwu stood up with a smile: "Thank you all for your help. There will be rewards for doing a good job. I will go to the restaurant owner first to discuss the matters of exchanging shops."
Mi Zhenchuan said, "Fifth Miss, the owner of the restaurant is no longer here."
After hearing what he said, Ji Qingwu stood still and turned around and asked, "He's gone. What does that mean?"
"The original owner's surname was Liu. He was a compulsive gambler and lost everything in the gambling house. The restaurant has been taken over by the people in the gambling house."
Ji Qingwu said: "But when I came here, I saw the notice of the sale."
"Yes, this restaurant is not doing well, and we are planning to sell it." Mi Zhenchuan walked up and whispered, "Fifth Miss, do you know who is in charge of this gambling house?"
Ji Qingwu shook her head. She didn’t know, but judging from the look on Shopkeeper Mi’s face, the person behind the gambling house was probably someone who was not easy to mess with.
Mi Zhenchuan said: "Two years ago, this gambling house was found to be cheating people with malicious intent, and the person in charge was later changed. Now the person in charge is the one in charge of the Imperial City Department."
He reminded her, "Fifth Miss, you have only been back for a short time. You don't know how cruel that man in the Imperial City Department is. He would chop off people's fingers at any time and even eat steamed buns dipped in human blood."
Ji Qingwu already knew who he was talking about: "Manager Mi, is this gentleman you are talking about Duan Mingfeng?"
Mi Zhenchuan had obvious fear on his face and whispered, "Fifth Miss, don't dare to address that gentleman by his name."
It turns out that Duan Mingfeng not only looks gloomy, but also has so many terrible rumors about him.
Ji Qingwu smiled and said, "It couldn't be better if it's him."
Then, she walked away, leaving them with a graceful back.
After half an incense stick of time.
Ji Qingwu sat in the restaurant, looking at the layout of the store.
After she sat down, no one came to greet her. There were only a few diners in the restaurant, and the waiter was leaning against the counter and slacking off.
After she called someone, the waiter came over slowly.
"Sir, what would you like to eat?"
It was noon, and Ji Qingwu was thinking about the empty city plan. She said directly, "Bring us one portion of the restaurant's signature dishes."
The waiter said, "No."
Ji Qingwu said dissatisfiedly: "Why open a restaurant if there is no signature dish?"
Close the shop early and sell it to her.
The waiter said, "The chef ran away with the original boss lady, and only a few assistants are left. They don't know how to make hot dishes. There are still some drinks and cold dishes left. Please take a look at what you would like to eat, sir."
This reason sounds quite sufficient.
Ji Qingwu said directly: "There is no food, and the cook has run away. Call your current boss over."
The waiter finally opened his eyes, thinking she was looking for trouble, and looked at her and said, "You are asking for your life. If our new boss comes, you will be skinned and turned into a dish."
Is Duan Mingfeng so scary? Everyone said this, and the reputation was really bloody and violent.
A guest standing nearby suddenly stood up, slapped his sword in front of Ji Qingwu, and shouted, "Master Duan is busy with official duties, how can you call him over!"
Ji Qingwu was not frightened. He observed his attire and asked, "Are you also from the Imperial City Division?"
The man in black robe stared at her for a while, then hesitantly whispered, "Barbecue girl?"
What barbecue girl? Ji Qingwu looked at her for a long time but couldn’t recognize who she was.
The man in black robe quickly stood at attention. This was the girl who followed the emperor into the tent on the grassland that night.
The more aggressive you are when you slam the sword on the table, the more awkward you will be when you sheath the sword.
When Duan Mingfeng received the news from his subordinates, he was in Wei Rui Xuan in the city, accompanying his master on business.
Upon learning that Ji Qingwu had something to talk to him about, he suppressed his surprise and carefully looked up at the face of the man in front of him.
A voice as dull as clouds sounded.
"Go ahead."
