Chapter 235 Chapter 1 Xiwen made clothes for Chen Jing, and Chen Jing was very moved. Chen Jing can no longer turn a blind eye to this willfulness of a woman who has no fingers in the spring water. She obviously relies on her talents to survive, but she still wants to be such a difficult female celebrity. Chen Jing has never made clothes, but you can guess the hard work. Especially for people who are not skilled in needlework, it is even more difficult. There may be many needle holes in the hands that are as white as jade. Although I was moved, I also felt a headache. Xiwen is Wan Niang¡¯s support, and also the support for Wan Niang¡¯s high hopes. Chen Jing and Wan Niang are friends and have been taken care of by Wan Niang many times. If she accepts Xiwen, it might be a blow to Wanniang. Chen Jing feels this is unkind. ¡°Besides, he doesn¡¯t really cherish Wen¡¯s love to the point where he has to be her lover. His affection for Xiwen is only mild, not as much as for Qingyun. After thinking about it, Chen Jing turned over and fell asleep. After Chen Er and Chen Er explained everything about Chen Qi, Chen Jing did not come looking for him again in Jingzhong Lane. Instead, it was Chen Ba and Fifth Uncle who actually came to ask Chen Jing if there was a way to go to Qishan Academy or if a familiar friend could recommend it. During the first month of the year, Chen Jing made a big fuss in the fifth house of Jingzhong Lane because of the fight between Chen Shiba and Chen Wengong. He not only beat Chen Shiba, but also his fifth uncle. Chen Jing really didn¡¯t expect that because of Chen Ba¡¯s study, Uncle Wu put away his hostility towards Chen Jing, pretended to be nonchalant, and asked Chen Jing for help. It seems that Uncle Wu really hopes that Chen Ba can make a difference. This deep affection moved Chen Jing. Uncle Wu may not have truly forgiven Chen Jing, but his willingness to show such shame is admirable. "I don't know what the conditions are for admission now. However, I do have some friendship with Shen Changyu. In order to win over Shen Changyu, Qishan Academy was very kind to him. If he recommends the eighth brother, it should not be difficult to enter the academy." Chen Jing said. Yesterday, Chen Jing still didn¡¯t let go. Now, he agreed. Chen Ba was very happy and said hurriedly: "Brother Yangji, thank you very much! No matter how many Shuxiu the academy has to send, we will not trouble you anymore." The fifth uncle also said: "Yangji, you are willing to help your eighth brother regardless of the past grudges. Uncle Wu will keep this in mind. When your eighth brother has a future, he will definitely thank you." Chen Jing smiled and said, "It's all my brothers. I also hope that my eighth brother can go to school and shine. In the future, when the Eighth Brother is mentioned, the Chen family in Wangxian County will be mentioned, and I will also take advantage of it." After hearing this, the fifth uncle felt much better and sighed: "I think you are far-sighted and transparent! Like a certain person who is unable to study, and is afraid that his brothers will become successful and outshine him, so he even dismisses the teachers of ethnic studies, cutting off the way for his brothers to study. Not to mention whether he has evil intentions, just say that he has no evil intentions! Foresight! How can a family rest on its laurels? How can a family prosper if there are no promising children?" Someone refers to Chen Erchen. Uncle Wu hated Chen Er so much that his teeth itched with hatred. His character is too direct and has almost no success. Thinking back to the time when he said that Chen Zhang died outside, it was probably because he was so straightforward and skipped his words. Chen Jing just smiled and did not answer the question. Everyone has their own difficulties. Chen Er may not be a good person, but he also has his difficulties, so we cannot blame him blindly. Chen Er took over the power of the uncle's housekeeper and officially became the head of the Jingzhong Lane family, which was not possible in other families. Even in the emperor's family, only after the father dies can the son succeed to the throne. The great-uncle was too disappointed with the uncle, and the uncle was addicted to comfort and unwilling to take care of the house, so the responsibility of the housekeeper fell on Chen Er. Chen Er is too young. Which of his uncles will obey him? Naturally, he needed some drastic measures to calm the situation. Dismissing the master of ethnology and cutting the expenses of ethnography is probably just the first step, and there will be other things later. "You can't blame him. After all, he wasn't born to the original wife. It's normal for him to have no knowledge." Fifth Uncle continued. "Ah?" Chen Jing was a little surprised by this, "The second brother is not the eldest aunt's child?" Chen Jing never knew that Chen Er was not the son of his first wife. He thought that Chen Er was the serious legitimate son of Jingzhong Lane. Otherwise, why would my uncle trust him so much? "Why, you don't know?" Chen Jing's question made Fifth Uncle and Chen Ba even more surprised. Chen Ba said to Chen Jing, "The current eldest aunt is the eldest uncle's successor. The former eldest aunt only left her eldest cousin. After his death, the second brother became the eldest son. However, he was the step-brother¡¯s son after all, and he was one step behind his original wife."It is good luck for him to join his uncle's house." Chen Jing understood it now. In fact, there are differences between legitimate sons. Naturally, the son of the stepmother cannot be compared with the son of the first wife. In this era, status symbolizes many things. For example, the eldest son will definitely be the head of the family in the future, unlike future generations, who can compete. In this era, status determines everything, and there is no reason for it. "No wonder Chen Er has been on guard since he was a child. Chen Qi is afraid that his uncle will be too fond of Chen Qi in the future and endanger his status. " Chen Jing thought to himself. He suddenly found the source of Chen Er's flattering attitude towards Chen Qi. Chen Er has no confidence. He is just the son of his stepmother. Because of his father's preference, Chen Er has no sense of security, so he treats someone who is not a person at all. His enemy Chen Qi was on guard. Chen Jing was silent for a long time. "Brother Yangji, when will you write to Qishan Academy?" "Chen Ba changed the subject and asked Chen Jing. Chen Jing was relatively silent on the topic of family affairs in Jingzhong Lane. It may be that Chen Jing is used to being cautious and does not like to comment on other people's family affairs. Chen Ba could see that he was not interested, so he No more words. ¡°I¡¯ll write when I get back. "Chen Jing agreed. "Chen Ba and Fifth Uncle were very happy. After dinner, Chen Jing returned to the drug store, and sure enough, he started to write a letter to Shen Changyu of Qishan Academy, hoping to win one or two places for the brothers of the Chen family. After writing, , Chen Jing sent it out. At the same time, he also sent a boy to Chen's house to tell Uncle Wu and Chen Ba, so that they would not worry about Chen Jing forgetting and not taking it to heart. In the blink of an eye, it was Shenchu. . Chen Jing was about to enter the pharmacy and start making medicine. "Shopkeeper Zhu, Mr. Ni" Chen Jing just stepped into the backyard when he suddenly heard someone calling Zhu He and Mr. Ni. This voice was familiar. Chen Jing stopped slightly and looked back. Eyes. An old man wearing a dark blue linen jacket walked in front and greeted Zhu He and Mr. Ni with a smile. Behind him, there was an old man in his seventies with gray hair and two middle-aged men wearing dark blue linen. The old man Zhicheng was a little familiar, but he couldn¡¯t remember who it was. He had never seen the other three people before. ¡°Dong Chen¡¯s family! "The old man wearing dark blue linen saw Chen Jing and greeted him quickly. Chen Jing walked over and finally had a flash of inspiration and remembered who he was. "Mr. Tang. "Chen Jing smiled and greeted the old man. The old man's surname was Tang, and he was a gentleman from Yiyantang, Xiao County, Yuezhou. Last time he went to Chen Jing's pharmacy and said he wanted to buy medicine for his employer, and that he was a member of Mr. Tang's tribe. "Dong Chen, this is our old boss, Mr. Wen. "Mr. Tang walked up to Chen Jing and introduced the gray-haired old man behind him to Chen Jing. Then, without waiting for Chen Jing to answer, Mr. Tang continued to introduce the two middle-aged men, "These are our eldest and second masters. . " Two middle-aged men are the sons of Mr. Wen. The shorter and fatter one is the eldest; the taller and thinner one is the second. " Mr. Wen's boss. "Chen Jing greeted the old gentleman. "Lao Dong Wen is seventy-three years old this year, which is very old. At his age, it is rare to be energetic and rosy. It can be seen that Lao Dong Wen is very healthy. "People say that Chen Yangji is a young talent, but I don't believe it. Now that I see him, he is indeed young. It is my luck to meet such a genius in my lifetime! "My old boss Wen chuckled. When he smiled, he showed a set of neat teeth. The teeth are very neat, and none of them are missing or diseased, which shows that his health is indeed very good. "My old boss is overly praised. "Chen Jing said, "Let's talk upstairs. " With that said, Chen Jing invited everyone in Yi Yantang to the private room upstairs. Last time they took Chen Jing's patent medicine, and now they are still visiting, which shows that they are sincere in cooperating with Chen Jing. To be honest, the patent medicine The business is more difficult than Chen Jing expected. His medicine has been distributed for so long, and he still has no idea whether it can be concluded. If he is anxious, he may have jumped on it. , Chen Jing is quite stable. Chen Jing invited the people from Yiyantang to the private room upstairs. Mr. Ni and Zhu He also put aside their work and came to entertain them together. The private room was not as big as the conference room in later generations. There were seven people squeezed in, and it suddenly felt crowded. Zhu He was the shopkeeper. He got straight to the point and asked Yi Yantang's old boss: "How is the effect of the patent medicine Mr. Tang brought back last time? " "Effectiveness"??Very good. "Lao Dong Wen said, "Speaking of it, most of the patent medicines are not available in Zongdetang. Although I have never seen it, I followed Dong Chen¡¯s instructions and took the right medicine, and it worked very well. We have wanted to come here for a long time, but we have never had any business dealings with Yuhetang. Last time, Dong Chen¡¯s family made it clear that they would need a long-term supply of medicine, so we have been hesitant until now. " Mr. Wen's boss speaks very directly. " Like a businessman, in order to lower the price, most of the time he will not praise the other party's things very much, but will half praise and half belittle them, making an awkward look, waiting for the other party to lose control. He was angry and took the initiative to lower the price. But Mr. Wen did not do so. It was because he did not want to disrupt the cooperation with Yuhetang because of these trivial matters in business. Tang had business dealings. Therefore, the medicine Chen Jing gave to Yi Yantang was even more effective than what his boss Wen had praised. Although they had never heard of most of the medicine, they were afraid that the people would not believe it. The miraculous effect of the medicine is enough to win the trust of the entire market among those who are unfamiliar with it. ¡°It¡¯s nothing. When doing business, you must be cautious. Zhu He said with a smile, "My old boss Wen is a happy man. Now that he is here, he naturally wants to associate with our Yuhetang?" " "This is natural. "Lao Dong Wen said, "I wonder what the method of offering medicine is? " Next, we need to talk about the specific matters of cooperation. Both parties have intentions. How to supply medicine, how to supply medicine, and what price all need to be discussed carefully. It cannot be decided in a short while. " Chen Jing is already half-conscious. In the afternoon, he said to Wen's boss and others: "You are coming from Yuezhou, it's a long way, why not find an inn to stay and freshen up. ¡°My private room is really too crowded, and it¡¯s not cheap to talk to. Instead of this, I will go to the inn where you are staying and rent a room. It is spacious and bright, and we will discuss it in detail. " After hearing this, Mr. Wen's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but nodded: "That's good. " This old boss is also a Confucian businessman who wants to be comfortable and decent. Being in such a hurry is not in line with his character. Slow down and let them tidy up before starting to talk business, which will appear more cautious and sincere. " , Chen Jing did what he wanted. "In that case, I will send you there. "Chen Jing stood up and said. "Chen Jing left Zhu He in the shop and took care of him temporarily. He and Mr. Ni followed everyone in Yiyantang to the best inn in the city. There are five Tianzihao rooms on the third floor. Chen Jing has taken care of everything, and there is still some time for everyone in Yiyantang to discuss business. The two masters of the Wen family are very satisfied, "You guys have a rest first, I will go to Zuixiao Pavilion." The banquet has been decided. Let's drink first in the evening and then talk after we're full. "Chen Jing said with a smile. He left Mr. Ni to socialize with a few people, and went to the restaurant to order food. This may be his first business of opening a patent medicine. Chen Jing was in a very good mood. *r1152
