Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Liu Shii did not head directly back to the Grand Chancellor’s Residence. Instead, she took Huangfu Lingyao to the main street near the City God Temple.
The Fusheng Pavilion’s renovation was completed to perfection, as she had personally inspected. Now, the Jiang and Wu families were delivering dicinal herbs, and when they arrived, Xu Xian was cross-referencing the list, directing his assistants to categorize and store the herbs in cabinets.
Shu Jun was also present. He knew much more about dicinal herbs than the hired help, and with him overseeing, there was no concern about the quality of the herbs.
“Master,” Shu Jun hastily bowed upon seeing Liu Shii enter.
Xu Xian set aside the checklist and called out, “Eldest Young Miss!”
While Liu Shii had instructed him to use her na, he simply could not do it. Calling her ‘Eldest Young Miss’ felt more comfortable, especially when Silly Second Prince was with her. When he was by her side, nobody dared to address her directly by na, lest they incur the disdainful gaze of King Dun Yu.
Silly as he might be, Liu Shii protected him, and she would not allow anyone around her to belittle him.
Liu Shii did not pay much attention to these details and asked, “Are we ready?”
“We’re nearly there,” Xu Xian nodded. “We’ve been implenting Eldest Miss’s plan step by step. Young Master Shu has also been overseeing. Afterward, I personally double-checked to ensure there were no oversights.”
Even though he said this, Liu Shii trusted that Xu Xian was ticulous in his work. Moreover, she had the assistance of Shang Lu and Shang Zhi, not to ntion the genius of Shu Jun’s mind.
However, this was Liu Shii’s first foray into managing a private dical hall. It was her inaugural entrepreneurial endeavor, and there were many aspects she wanted to be personally involved in.
After taking another look around inside and out to confirm everything was in order, she handed the opening and publicity plan to Xu Xian and said, “Follow the instructions in there. If you can’t find suitable individuals, consult my Ninth Brother. He’s more than capable in this regard. I’ve already discussed it with him in advance.”
In modern terms, ‘publicity’ was the equivalent of ‘promotion’ or ‘hype’.
There’s a saying: Good wine needs no bush.
However, when it ca to actual operations, to quickly get on the right track and the path to profitability, even good wine feared the depth of the alley!
No matter how advanced one’s dical skills were, it was not sothing that could be built into a reputation in just one or two days.
By using the power of publicity and continuous bombardnt, one could leave a clear mark in people’s minds. So much so that when this person thinks about seeking dical attention in the future, they would recall: Oh, we can go to Fusheng Pavilion, right?
Adding to this, she had her own ‘celebrity halo’, although her reputation was not exactly flattering, but hey, any kind of fa is still fa!
Xu Xian glanced at the table of contents in the proposal and his eyes lit up. “Eldest Young Miss, how do you co up with such brilliant ideas?”
Regarding this proposal, Huangfu Lingyao had secretly taken a look at it.
Indeed, it was stunning. It made him repeatedly wonder what on earth was going on in his wife’s mind. When it ca to these well-organized matters, she was as precise as a machine!
Even the layout of the promotional pamphlets and the eye-catching slogans were all designed, waiting only for soone to transcribe and distribute them.
Liu Shii continued, “On the opening day, all the patients I handle will receive free consultations; we’ll only charge for the dicines, not the doctor’s fee.”
Xu Xian was in awe of her and naturally followed her instructions.
After further instructions on so details, Liu Shii asked about a crucial staffing issue, “What about the doctors?”
Xu Xian replied, “They’ll be in their own consulting rooms, arranging them to their liking.”
These dical elites had mostly stayed because of Liu Shii’s “Red Cockroach” incident. Nobody could figure out how so many people failed to catch him, and Iron Saber’s dramatic escape still haunted them.
But to fully win them over, more impressive skills would be required.
Liu Shii was not in a hurry. Since they had chosen to stay, they would gradually be influenced.
She then treated all the employees to a al at Immortal Guest Restaurant and instructed Lu Ying to take Huangfu Lingyao back to the Wang Residence. With Mo’er following her, she entered the entrance of the Grand Chancellor’s Residence.
Just as they entered, they heard the housekeeper saying, “Eldest Young Miss, Master asks you to go to his study as soon as you return.”
Liu Shii raised an eyebrow.
What was this scoundrel of a father up to now?
