Chapter 251 Concubine Wen was burned
After Ye Chengchu came up with the idea, the Ye family actually implemented it.
The Ye family's herbal medicine shop directly announced a ten-fold compensation campaign for fake products. The people found it strange, but it was finally passed.
After Gu Ruanci learned about this, he found it quite interesting.
There is someone in the Ye family who can withstand his attacks, but I don’t know how many rounds he can last.
When the first batch of insufficient medicinal materials was found in the convenience pharmacy, the Ye family cooperated very well and made compensation. They also thanked the customer for his supervision. This incident naturally stimulated the people to go to their Ye family to get medicine.
Within a few days, the Ye family's pharmacy was revived.
Although the profit is much lower than before, the customer base is guaranteed, so it is not a complete loss.
Other pharmacies in Dizhou City are not so lucky. After all, they do not have such confidence. This has a lot to do with their purchasing channels.
Several pharmacies were no longer doing well in just a few days, with few customers. However, some pharmacies that had been mediocre before, sticking to their original intentions but with little revenue, suddenly had many more customers.
In recent days, the medicinal materials market in Dizhou City has indeed been revitalized.
"County Lady, the Ye family reacted quite quickly this time..." Nong Chun couldn't help but admire the person who made the decision this time in the Ye family.
"It should be Ye Chengchu, the second most influential think tank in the Second House after Ye Cheng. He has been in charge of the Ye family's business for many years. Although he is young, he is quite courageous."
"Having said that, the Ye family still has a few smart people supporting them, so they are not that easy to deal with." Zang Xia summarized.
Gu Ruanci nodded slightly, a glint of approval in her eyes: "Ye Chengchu is a man of quick thinking. However, this contest has just begun. I want to see how many tricks he has up his sleeve."
Inside the Ye family pharmacy, Ye Chengchu, who came to inspect, looked at the endless stream of customers, but he was not completely relaxed in his heart.
He knew very well that this was just Gu Ruanci's first step, and there would definitely be more fierce attacks to follow.
After all, judging from previous experience, every time Gu Ruanci takes action, he will not stop until the Zhou and Ye families are seriously injured.
He repeatedly warned the pharmacy owner and staff, "This time, the convenience pharmacy came with such force. Although we were lucky enough to cope, we can't let our guard down. Going forward, we must more strictly control the quality of the medicinal materials. At the same time, we must also find new supply channels to reduce costs. Otherwise, profits will not increase, which will be detrimental to everyone."
Everyone nodded in agreement and expressed their willingness to do their best.
After Lu Enyan knew about these movements, he appreciated it even more.
However, Concubine Wen has been unhappy these past two days because the medicine shop in Prince Duan's Mansion is under her control.
When Prince Duan doted on her the most, he gave her the most profitable shop to manage. Sometimes, she could even send some medicinal herbs into the palace through Prince Duan's connections, but the ingredients were not very sufficient.
Over the years, she has used this to make money.
But after Gu Ruanci's convenient pharmacy disrupted the situation, she was a little at a loss.
She was not originally cut out for business, but relied on the reputation of Prince Duan's Mansion. Some of her big-ticket clients were just trying to curry favor with Prince Duan.
As a result, this time their medicinal materials happened to be caught in the crossfire and were found to have problems when checked by the convenience pharmacy.
Their pharmacy business was declining. After all, everyone knew that their herbs were flawed. Those who wanted to curry favor with Prince Duan no longer dared to come and buy them openly, as they would only end up losing money.
"Gu Ruanci, Gu Ruanci again! This bitch!"
Concubine Wen finally couldn't help it and smashed things all over the floor, waiting for the servants to clean up.
The nanny beside her quickly stepped forward to comfort her: "My Lady Concubine, please calm down. This situation is not hopeless."
Concubine Wen widened her eyes and looked at the nanny: "What did you say? There is a way? What is the way?"
The nanny leaned close to Concubine Wen's ear and whispered a few words.
Concubine Wen's eyes flashed with reluctance: "Learn from the Ye family? Isn't it too late to learn now?"
The nanny said, "Of course not. If the Concubine wants to vent her anger, she should follow this method, let nature take its course, and then use their own path."
"Use? How?"
Concubine Wen obviously didn't understand and asked another question.
Mammy said, "If the convenient pharmacy deliberately detects fake medicines from genuine ingredients, or if the ingredients are insufficient, their reputation will be destroyed immediately, and we can turn the tables."
When Concubine Wen heard this, she found this method extremely reasonable.
But she always felt that something was being overlooked.
Concubine Wen frowned, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Is Gu Ruanci a fool who would let us succeed so easily?"
The nanny chuckled, a sly glint in her eyes: "Your Highness, you don't know that although Gu Ruanci is smart, she also has a weak spot."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Wen immediately became interested: "Oh? Tell me about it."
The nanny continued to whisper, "Gu Ruanci's weakness is her overly kind heart. She did all this to help the people lower the price of medicinal herbs. She always thought that as long as she was kind to others, they would be kind to her. But she didn't realize that people in this world are often skeptical. So many people are waiting to see her laugh. Moreover, her actions have truly hurt the interests of many people."
After hearing this, Concubine Wen sneered, "Humph, since she has a weakness, it's easy to deal with. We can take advantage of her kindness and let her jump into the pit we dug."
The nanny nodded in agreement. "That's right, Concubine Consort is wise. As long as we plan carefully, we will definitely bring ruin to Gu Ruanci's reputation. Even if she can't recover, she will at least suffer serious damage."
Concubine Wen thought for a moment and said, "If Qingdai hadn't been in trouble, I would have definitely discussed this matter with my sister. Otherwise, I'd always feel uneasy..."
The nanny also sighed and said, "Yes, the eldest lady must be feeling very upset right now. My cousin has been enduring all these years, and just when she was about to live a good life, she encountered something like this. From what the eldest lady said, it seems that this was also done by Gu Ruanci."
Concubine Wen hated her even more: "This Gu Ruanci, it would have been fine if she just fought against the Zhou family, but she even stretched her claws to my sister and Qingdai. She is simply too arrogant. This time I will teach her a lesson."
Mammy nodded, her face full of malice.
"My Lady Concubine, the County Master has suffered so much at her hands before, we should settle the matter with her."
Concubine Wen then remembered that her daughter Lu Wenxue had been unlucky ever since she met Gu Ruanci.
This Gu Ruanci is simply a disaster for the three of them, mother and son.
"That's right, we must not let her go this time. She really thinks that after a few days of comfort, she can fight us. When I captured the prince, she was not even born yet!"
