The matter has been preliminarily agreed, and the family will heat up the leftover meals at noon in the evening, and after a brief meal, they will go back to their rooms to rest.
Early the next morning, Jing'an went to call a carriage to the door, picked up Gorou and Xu Xiangwan and went to the west of the city.
"Brother, I want to open a shop and make a living. Xu Xiangwan sat opposite Gorou and suddenly spoke.
Gorou frowned at first, puzzled, "What shop?"
"I want to open a medicinal food shop, mainly dealing in all kinds of medicinal food. Xu Xiangwan thought for a while.
"Medicinal food?" Gorou shook his head and said disapprovingly, "It's good that ordinary people can eat meat, but where else can they eat medicinal food?
Xu Xiangwan had already thought about this question, and knew that Wulang would ask these questions, so he smiled and said: "The medicinal diet shop I opened sells different medicinal diets from ordinary medicinal diets, and they can be rich and poor. The medicinal food shop is mainly engaged in all kinds of medicinal food porridge and medicinal food preparation. The cheap medicinal porridge is only a few pennies, not much more expensive than eating the roadside noodles, and ordinary people can eat it. Medicinal food catering is divided into various types, such as single catering, generally only ten or so languages, as well as double catering, triple catering, etc., in addition to banquet catering, mainly for a variety of different wine banquets. Different food pairings have different effects, such as beauty and beauty, wind and dampness, physical fitness and so on. In the medicinal food shop, I would like to invite a special Lang Zhong to sit in the hall and give different suggestions according to the physical condition of the guests. ā
At first, Gorou just listened to it as a whimsical joke of his youngest daughter's family, but the more he heard it, the brighter his eyes became, and when he heard it, he clapped his hands and exclaimed: "According to your idea, this medicinal food shop is really good." This medicinal food shop must be clean and tidy, looking more elegant than ordinary snack shops, for frequent customers, we can give some discounts, such as sending a plate of peanuts and a bowl of soup. ā
And we can give different things according to the different consumption of customers, and the more we spend, the more things we give, so that we can retain more repeat customers. Gorou's proposal opened up new ideas for Xu Xiangwan, and the more he thought about it, the more profitable he felt.
Both brothers and sisters are extremely intelligent, and when they arrived in the West Market, they were only halfway through speaking, and they didn't even know that the carriage had stopped, and they didn't even get out of the car until the coachman opened the curtain and shouted.
At this time, the sky is already bright, and the market is full of all kinds of stalls, selling vegetables, selling poultry, selling breakfast snacks, selling gadgets, all kinds of dazzling things to see Xu Xiangwan's eyes.
"Brother, should we go to Luoma City or Yaxing first?" Xu Xiangwan took Gorou's hand and raised his head and asked.
Seeing Xu Xiangwan looking at herself with a pair of big watery eyes, looking extremely cute, she couldn't help but touch her head and said with a smile: "Let's go to Yahang first, just buy one that can catch a car, so that you can go to the mule and horse market to buy a carriage and horses in a while, and you can directly put on it and drive home." ā
Xu Xiangwan nodded like pecking rice, and said happily: "Brother is right." Let's go out and take our own carriage later. ā
The mule and horse market is on the west side of the market, and the tooth shop is on the east side of the market, and the place where Xu Xiangwan and they get off is at the east entrance of the market, not two steps away from the tooth shop.
Compared with other shops, several dental shops looked relatively cold, and Xu Xiangwan and they headed towards the nearest Songyue dental store. As soon as the guy standing at the door of the Yaxing saw a guest coming to the door, he immediately stepped forward and stood up: "How many people, I don't know what you want to see in the Yaxing?"
In addition to the slave trade, the Tooth Shop also engaged in a variety of other activities, including brokering and buying houses, fields, etc., but the Tooth Dealer would take a certain commission as a reward.
"We want to see if there are any suitable servants. Gorou nodded to the guy and said politely.
The guy saw that although the two people led by him were not very old and only wore muslin clothes, they had an extraordinary temperament, and even some rich young masters and girls did not necessarily have such a style, so they did not despise the two at all, and invited the two into the lobby with great enthusiasm.
"Childe, girl, I wonder what you want?" the guy asked.
Wulang glanced at Xu Xiangwan and said to the guy: "Take a look first, the girl and the mother-in-law want to take care of the home, if it is suitable, buy two more." ā
Hearing Goro's words, the guy's eyes lit up, he thought that the two of them would buy a lot of people at most, but he didn't expect that it would seem to be a lot, and his heart suddenly blossomed. This month's business is not good, he has not made a few orders of business, if he can get this business, he is not afraid of not being able to pay the shopkeeper.
The men hurriedly called out twenty or so men from the house, half men and half women, and asked them to stand in a row, among which there were four older women, and the others were teenage girls.
"Childe, the two girls here were born in the family of the eunuchs, this taller is the daughter of Zhixian, and the shorter is the daughter of Zhizhou, both of them are proficient in piano and chess, and they have good looks and good looks, but the price is slightly more expensive, and one person gets ten taels of silver. The guy pointed to the two girls on the far left in the front row, their faces full of flattery and a little lewdness.
This kind of official lady is the most popular, and large families like to buy this kind of back, one is from an innocent background, and the other is that she has a good appearance and temperament, and she can be accepted as a girl or concubine.
The daughter of Zhizhou glanced at Gorou and Xu Xiangwan with contempt, snorted coldly and withdrew her gaze. She used to be the daughter of Zhizhou, if it was placed in the past, this kind of ordinary people with small families, she didn't even bother to look at it, but she didn't expect that now they still want to buy her back to serve, and she thinks it's beautiful.
Although the other daughter of Zhixian is not as arrogant as the daughter of Zhizhou, she also has a trace of disdain in her eyes, and obviously she doesn't look down on Xu Xiangwan.
Xu Xiangwan saw it clearly, his face sank suddenly, and he secretly said in his heart: You don't look down on us, is it possible that we still like you?
Xu Xiangwan glared at the guy, and said angrily: "Let's buy a girl to go back to do things, not to buy it and raise it at home." If you can't pick your shoulders and can't lift them, you can buy them back and show them to the master's face, no matter how good your appearance is? ā
The guy scratched his head in embarrassment, glanced at Goro, who didn't react, and said, "Yes, yes." Girl, please look at these three people, they used to be girls from big families, and later they were sold out because of the middle of the main family, and they are quick in their hands and feet, and they know the rules, know the proportions, and their bodies are strong. These three people are worth the same amount, they are all eight taels of silver each. (To be continued.) )
