Chapter 240 Capital Star Branch Opening
Chapter 240 Capital Star Branch Opening
Matthew had a flash of inspiration, remembering that the major general had specifically instructed him to accompany Kong Yu to meet the people at Mingguang Base.
Recalling the expression on Kong Yu's face when he received the call from the Major General...
Kong Yu naturally had no idea what the instructor was thinking. As soon as he left the base, someone sent by Jinzhong took him to the Shennong Herb Hall on the capital planet.
Jinzhong was standing in front of the counter. When he saw Kongyu coming over, he looked up and said hello: "How was it? Was it different from what you imagined?"
There are so many Shennong Herbal Medicine Halls in Federation, but this is the first time that Kongyu stands here. Traditional Chinese Medicine is a brand new concept in Federation. If Kongyu had not provided detailed drawings, Jinzhong would have no idea what the Shennong Herbal Medicine Hall should look like.
The bright red doorhead and the simple and heavy Chinese-style architecture, everything is a 100% replica of Kong Yu’s impression.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a long row of medicine cabinets. On the counter are small and exquisite scales, prescription papers, and the faint smell of boiled Chinese medicine, which instantly brings you back to the ancient Earth era.
"No difference, exactly as I imagined."
Hearing Kongyu's affirmation, Jinzhong seemed very satisfied, and couldn't wait to pull Kongyu to show him more details in the pharmacy.
"We've set up a rest room here so patients who are feeling unwell can rest. This is also a tea room. Doctor Miao and the medical staff developed tea based on the medicinal plant encyclopedia provided here. We plan to set up a tea room for guests to experience it."
As expected, when Kong Yu saw the various tea drinks and various antique tea sets displayed against the wall, he couldn't help but sigh that everyone's brains were working very quickly.
As if he noticed Kong Yu's surprise, Jinzhong smiled and said, "This is the inspiration I got when I went to your house before."
There is a small tea table on the balcony of Kongyu's house. When friends come, we often sit together to enjoy the snow and drink tea, which is a unique mood.
Moreover, the spare tea sets are very unique. Sometimes, even if people don’t drink tea, they are willing to sit down and stay for a while just for the sake of the beautiful tea sets.
Jinzhong has thought it all out. He will have to pester Kongyu to give him more inspiration later. These tea sets may also have some market in the federation.
The two of them sat down at the tea table, and Jinzhong personally made tea. As the water temperature rose, a faint tea fragrance slowly spread out, with a hint of medicinal aroma.
Kong Yu took a bite and Jinzhong's eyes were full of anticipation.
Seeing Kong Yu nod, Jinzhong was in a good mood. Up to now, the more profitable industries of the Flame Army, Xinsheng Pharmaceutical Company and Shennong Pharmacy, were all Kong Yu's ideas. The money bag of him, the Flame Army, was a little unworthy of its name.
But compared to that little bit of loss, he was more grateful for the opportunities that Kong Yu's arrival brought to the Flame Army, and he also had to work harder.
For some problems, Kong Yu completely sees through them but doesn't say anything. Sometimes, getting along with friends requires a little distance and skills.
Therefore, in all the projects that Kong Yu cooperated with the Flame Army, he took a portion of the shares and provided some advice and help when necessary. At other times, he almost did not care at all.
He focuses more on his own affairs, such as Blue Star and Beiyu.
Although his relationship with Huo Yan has changed now, Kong Yu's original idea has not changed at all. He will not interfere too much in the internal affairs of the Flame Army.
A sense of proportion is sometimes a very important thing.
The two chatted casually while drinking tea, and mostly listened to Jinzhong talk about the arrangements after the pharmacy opened tomorrow.
"I'm actually still a little nervous. I don't know if Shennong Herbal Medicine Hall can gain a foothold in the capital planet."
Jinzhong's worries are not groundless. Except for the outer city area of the capital star, the people living here are either rich or noble. The expensive treatment devices and medicines in the eyes of ordinary people are as common as drinking water and eating to them.
Those who have some health problems can be completely cured by lying in the treatment device. Traditional Chinese medicine seems to be of no use to them.
Listening to Jinzhong's words, Kong thought of Zhong's mother. It can be seen that the Federation's technology is not a problem and can solve any disease.
"Don't worry, the pharmacy's affairs cannot be rushed."
Kong Yu looked at Jinzhong through the dense fog and said comfortingly,
"Traditional Chinese medicine has advantages that cannot be matched by federal technology, and it will definitely be popular.
Moreover, we can launch some customized services for high-end customers, using Chinese medicine to regulate the body and achieve health-preserving effects.
Besides, even if Shennong Herbal Medicine Hall's initial performance isn't great, it doesn't matter. We still have time to slowly explore and find a suitable business model."
Jinzhong nodded. He knew that what Kongyu said made sense. Traditional Chinese medicine had great potential. As long as the right market positioning was found, it would surely succeed.
Watching Kongyu fiddling with the teacup, I felt a little relieved.
I don't know what's going on. It's obviously the same action, but this person does it in a particularly pleasing way. No wonder Zhong Ling said he was like a cow chewing a peony when she saw him drinking tea last time.
Time quickly came to the opening time of the pharmacy the next day. Kong Yu arrived early, but he and Jinzhong stayed in the inner hall the whole time, while the people Jinzhong found were watching outside.
Shennong Pharmacy has an official website on Star Network. The news of the opening of the Capital Star branch was released a few days ago, so people started to come into the store as soon as it opened.
But Kong Yu looked at the man and thought he didn't come to see a doctor. He was probably just here to watch the fun.
As expected, the man looked around the pharmacy and his eyes were fixed on the rows of medicine cabinets. The trained clerk looked at him with a smile.
"Sir, how can I help you?"
The man hesitated for a moment. "Is this Chinese medicine thing of yours really as good as they say online? Can it cure radiation sickness?"
Hearing the word "radiation sickness," the clerk's smile faded slightly, but his voice remained gentle, "Sir, a lot of things on Starnet are exaggerated. Radiation sickness is practically incurable."
When the clerk said this, the light of hope in the man's eyes instantly went out.
"However, although traditional Chinese medicine cannot cure radiation sickness, it can provide gentle nourishment and can greatly alleviate the suffering of radiation patients, and at the very least, improve their quality of life."
The extinguished light in the man's eyes rekindled, and his tone became a little excited: "Really? It really can relieve the pain. Does it cost a lot of money?"
The clerk was still smiling and didn't seem impatient. She was an old employee transferred from the store on Bingxuexing. She had seen many customers like this man and didn't find it strange.
"Don't worry, our medicinal plants and exotic plants are two different concepts. An ordinary family can afford a set of Chinese medicine.
We have a promotion for the first three days of our opening. You can bring your patients to see us. The doctor will prescribe medicine based on the patient's actual condition. You can get three sets of medicine for free. If you think it's effective, you can come back again."
