Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 7
Shopkeeper Chen looked at the woman in front of him and was also very emotional.

He hadn't been here for a long time, since he took over the store from Kong Lao's shopkeeper, he was recognized as a big shopkeeper who could be alone.Since then, he seems to have never been to the Kong family's house again.

From the moment he entered Kong's house, he felt a long-lost intimacy. Not a single plant or tree in the house had changed, especially when he saw Kong Linglong's face, which was somewhat similar to Kong's shopkeeper. It's even more profound.

Kong Linglong, who is not as good as Ji, obviously still has a childish feeling, so it is more appropriate to call her a girl.It's just that shopkeeper Chen felt a subtle sense of disobedience when he thought of the girl in front of him as his master.

Although Kong Linglong can be called calm and composed no matter in terms of clothing or demeanor.

It's just that shopkeeper Chen has been with Mr. Kong all his life, and he's used to the majestic face of Mr. Kong. When he saw the delicate girl in front of him, the gap was beyond words to describe.

"Master Chen."

The girl in front of her had already called out to herself, and Shopkeeper Chen immediately sat down.

Holding the account book, Kong Linglong smiled: "Master Chen's accounts are clear, and his monthly revenue has increased. No wonder my grandfather often said that Master Chen is his indispensable right-hand man."

Faced with the unexpected compliment, shopkeeper Chen blushed a little. Mr. Kong didn't often praise others, and it was even more difficult to imagine him saying such words as his right hand and right hand.

"However." The voice turned sharply, Kong Linglong pointed to a place in the account, and said, "Only this place, although musk belongs to the list of precious medicinal materials like ginseng and deer antler, it is not as widely used as other precious medicinal materials. Why is it continuous?" In March, Musk's shipments were more than in previous years?"

Shopkeeper Chen was taken aback for a moment, then immediately lowered his head and said, "Yes, I will definitely investigate when I go back."

She could even see this... No wonder, no wonder she insisted on making him come immediately after the market closed, just to prevent him from having time to re-check the ledger, even if there is something wrong with the ledger, that's all there is to it.

Kong Linglong put down the account book, and said with a smile, "Master Chen must think that the shop has already achieved profitability, but I still pick out medicinal materials to talk about it. It's really nitpicking."

Shopkeeper Chen's heart tightened, and he immediately said: "Don't talk about what the boss is talking about, besides, the shops of the Kong family have never put profit first."

The Confucian family's business philosophy does not put profit as the first, but it can always become the number one in the world in terms of profit.

Kong Linglong laughed, and looked at shopkeeper Chen with some appreciation: "If you don't put profit first, you can always maintain real profit without losing money. This is what my grandfather has always taught. Shopkeeper Chen can put his grandfather's words first In my heart, it's really good."

Shopkeeper Chen never raised his head: "The Chen family has worked for the Kong family for generations, and it will definitely not violate the rules of the Confucian family."

Kong Linglong nodded, looked at Shopkeeper Chen who was sitting upright, and smiled softer: "Shopkeeper Chen, you don't have to be so restrained. When I'm not talking about business, I hope I can call you Uncle Chen as usual."

Shopkeeper Chen straightened his back, "Chen is grateful for the love of the young master, and will do his best to assist the young master in the future."

This is a statement of attitude.

Kong Linglong smiled slightly: "I heard that Uncle Chen has a guy named Li San who came from a poor background and came here about three months ago to take charge of medicinal materials, right?"

Shopkeeper Chen really couldn't sit still now, but he is the big shopkeeper after all, and he knew that he should not panic at this time, so he replied in a deep voice: "Yes, you should make a clear decision."

Kong Linglong ordered as soon as she ordered, and handed over the account book with a smile: "Uncle Chen made a trip today, and it's almost noon, should Uncle Chen leave after eating?"

Shopkeeper Chen didn't dare to eat, took the account book and said: "There is still something to do in the shop, so don't bother me and be the head of the house."

Seeing shopkeeper Chen standing up, Kong Linglong seemed to be careless, and said slowly: "I know that Uncle Chen is generous and considerate of others, but kindness without any strategy may not really help people sometimes, especially in our business family. , when it comes to the word goodness, you must abide by what you should, so as not to harm yourself. Uncle Chen thinks what I said is right?"

The faint line of words seems to be just spoken casually.But shopkeeper Chen knew that these words were not casual at all, they were said to him specially.

Originally, he had already turned around and was about to walk out the door. After hearing these words, he felt his feet were heavy, and slowly turned around again, facing Kong Linglong, bent down and bowed deeply: "Mr. Chen, thank you, Young Master." teach."

Behind the curtain, Kong Linglong slowly smiled.

After leaving Kong's house, shopkeeper Chen couldn't calm down for a long time.Every sentence Kong Linglong said hit the nail on the head. It was true that Musk's shipments had been abnormal for three consecutive months. It was Li San, the buddy who came three months ago, who secretly took Musk away.

The reason shopkeeper Chen turned a blind eye to this was because Li San's family was really poor, with a bedridden mother who was seriously ill, and it was time for medicine to fail.

Li San is a dutiful son, even so, he tried his best to relieve his mother's pain. The medicinal value of musk is not as wide as that of ginseng, but the analgesic effect of musk is beyond the reach of other medicinal materials.

Musk is so precious that Li San's poor family couldn't afford it, so he chose to take the musk from the shop to relieve his mother's illness.

Speaking of it, it is a helpless reality that makes people cry.

The store run by shopkeeper Chen is the Kong family's outstanding one in the pharmaceutical industry, so mere musk, of course, cannot hurt the profit of the pharmaceutical store.

The new young head, Kong Linglong, was not blindfolded by the beautiful accounts. As soon as she raised her hand, she pointed out the subtle problems hidden in shopkeeper Chen's shop.

It should be said that since shopkeeper Chen entered the door, Kong Linglong had already laid out a chess game, strategizing, and giving both kindness and power, so that shopkeeper Chen deeply felt the courage of her new young master, and also let shopkeeper Chen know that the head of the Kong family is really It's a replacement.

After sending shopkeeper Chen away, Kong Linglong loosened her sore limbs, Yu'er brought a cup of steaming tea, and Kong Linglong took a sip.

In the final analysis, those affairs of the Liu family are nothing more than a mess, and the most important thing is the business of the Kong family.As a new head of the family, she must have a lot of things to deal with, both openly and secretly, so these problems can't be missed at all.

Seeing that Kong Linglong had relaxed a little, Yu'er went around behind her and rubbed her forehead while saying, "Miss, tomorrow I have an appointment with Qian Song, the shopkeeper of the shop in Dongcheng, and asked him to bring this year's revenue account, so that I can give it to you." Take a look, Miss."

Kong Linglong let out a "hmm", and the first to see were some big shopkeepers. The advantage was that she could get acquainted with the largest shops of the Kong family in the shortest time, and by the way, learned what business the Kong family had benefited the most recently.

Thinking of how her grandfather managed the Kong family's hundreds of big shops and countless sub-stores in such an orderly manner during her lifetime, Kong Linglong felt admiration for her grandfather.She doesn't expect to become a business master like her grandfather, but only wants to live up to the Kong family's family business, at least in her hands, and pass it on.

But the next day, before the shopkeeper of Qiansong had time to come, an uninvited guest had already seized the opportunity.

"Miss, the eldest lady of the Liu family is here." Yu'er's face was a little worried, the Liu family really has a lot of ghosts.

Seeing that Kong Linglong was silent for a while, Yu'er couldn't help asking: "Miss, can you see me?"

Kong Linglong smiled: "Yes, of course I will. If I don't see you, I don't know how this lady of the Liu family will make up this uneducated Miss Kong family in her heart."

That's right, anyway, ever since this marriage was confirmed, she, Kong Linglong, has been regarded by the wives of the Liu family as just a lowly merchant woman who clings to the rich and powerful.

Kong Linglong turned her sore neck and said, "Please invite Mrs. Liu to sit in the side hall."

Yu'er said: "Miss, do you want to change your clothes?"

Kong Linglong looked at her green dress, it was very suitable to meet a subordinate like shopkeeper Chen, but she seemed a bit plain when she saw an elder female family member.

But Kong Linglong looked back and smiled: "There is no need to change clothes, what I wear is not in the consideration of Mrs. Liu's family."

Yu'er understood, and led Kong Linglong ahead.

Mrs. Liu was sitting in the side hall. This was the second time she came to the Kong family. The first time she followed the old man and the master to present the marriage letter to this family. When she saw the somewhat old house of the Kong family, she felt so The dislike never disappeared. Although Liu Shao was not her own son, she subconsciously felt that a daughter from such a family was not worthy of their son of the Liu family.

This second time, Mrs. Liu felt less disgusted, but her disgust grew day by day.It was the young lady of such a merchant family who dared to return the marriage certificate, which slapped the entire Liu family in the face.

She really wanted to ask that Miss Kong family face to face if it was true that her head was kicked by a donkey.

But thinking of Mrs. Liu's instructions, Mrs. Liu knew that she could only show the most gentle attitude, and she must not lose control in the slightest.

What Mrs. Liu didn't know was that Kong Linglong had been standing outside the door for a while, and the reason why she didn't come in immediately was because Kong Linglong had been watching Mrs. Liu's unpredictable face and found it interesting.

But fortunately, Kong Linglong didn't intend to watch the show all the time, she only felt that Mrs. Liu had already prepared her emotions, so Kong Linglong thoughtfully appeared in her field of vision.

Mrs. Liu only felt that a very bright girl came in, her eyebrows, eyes, lips and teeth were as straight as ink paintings, and fortunately the girl was wearing clean clothes, if she wore brighter clothes, she might really catch people's attention.

This, is this the Miss Kong family?Mrs. Liu who reacted couldn't hide her shock.

Kong Linglong didn't care about Mrs. Liu's expression, she smiled politely and said, "Madam Liu is here, I don't know what the so-called is?"

The letter formally invited her not to come, but today she came uninvited, and it would really save her face to ask her why.
