Chapter 44: Branch opening
"Plagued! The dog's ......." debate machine came out of the house, trembling all over, and these words that had been forgotten for many years jumped out unconsciously.
Since he was 15 years old, he studied under the famous Sapa Tabu scholar of Daishoji Temple, Master Michigaku, and was revered as the head of the young monks in the Kyoto area.
Graceful, brilliant, handsome...... These beautiful words are even more elaborate.
Can....... Now that he was so angry with such a "vulgar" person, he almost fainted, thinking of the scene just now, he felt that his cheeks hurt.
It's hard to imagine how a beautiful princess could fall in love with such an immoral person?
"Amitabha, when a thought arises, a million obstacles open." He took repeated deep breaths and finally calmed himself down, and couldn't help but blame himself for not doing enough to get into a photo.
"Hey, it's a pleasure to come out, but what about the food?"
The debate monk's face was extremely ugly.
Just go back empty-handed, what do the people in the temple think of themselves?
The point is that there is no food in the temple.
"Since you can't raise food from the princess's mansion, what if you go directly to the door of the grain store and ask the people to donate food?"
He thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind that whichever grain store had the most people in front of it, he would go to make a fortune.
In any case, it is necessary to find some people to donate food, whether it is from the hands of the people or from the hands of the 'heart' grain store, it is the same.
Whichever grain store has the most people in front of it, you will go to where you will make a fortune.
The debate's eyes were once again staring at the 'Benxin' grain store, no, it should be said that it was the people of the 'Benxin' grain store.
He straightened his robe and walked along, and the words of Buddhism were once again ignited in his heart.
......
Over time.
"Five surnames and seven hopes" found that instead of squeezing the 'heart' grain store, they were losing money every day, and finally they ran out of food for the grain merchants!
When the rich grain merchants heard the news, everyone was stupid.
No food? Their grain stores will have to close!
But the grain merchants could only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs, they took the initiative to lick their faces at the beginning, and the strength of the gate valve nobles was something they could afford.
For a time, many grain stores in Chang'an City were closed.
With the closure of several grain stores in a row, "Five Surnames and Seven Hopes" also began to reduce the amount of grain sold every day in order to stop losses.
The turbulent reshuffle of the entire grain store in Chang'an City made the people's panic about grain worse, but people were immediately shocked to find that there were three more signboards of the "Benxin" grain store, and they couldn't help but discuss.
"Have you heard that the 'Benxin' grain store is going to build a branch on our street, I heard that it is exactly the same as the things sold on Suzaku Street, and the 'Benxin' grain and oil that used to be bought by running several streets can now be bought directly at your own doorstep. ”
"Really? Then it's much more convenient for you, really, why don't you open a store on our street in the 'Benxin' grain store? ”
A woman who wasn't in the area said indignantly.
"Don't worry, I heard that a total of three branches have been opened this time, and you also have a new store in Xicheng, which is just across the street from your house, much closer than going to Suzaku Street before, be content!"
"Yes....... The signs at the door were all hung up, and I was looking forward to them opening for business. ”
......
That's right, the 'Benxin' grain store branch is about to open.
The market was turbulent, but Qin Shou went the opposite way, and quietly asked people to choose three stores from the closed stores, which were not bad in terms of location and area, and put them down.
Therefore, he is a little busy these days, Chang'an City has opened three branches in a row, and he has to check the preliminary preparations, although this era does not pay attention to any decoration, but it still takes time and energy.
And the time is pressing, since we want to open a branch, it is not advisable to delay it for too long, taking advantage of the fact that many grain merchants are withdrawing and the market is turbulent, either do not do it, or completely gain a firm foothold in Chang'an Grain Bank.
Although he knew that the behemoth of "Five Surnames and Seven Hopes" had noticed the 'Benxin' grain store, there was no way back now.
Fortunately, there are a few reliable people around, and at this point, the quality of the ancients is much more remarkable.
is hard-working, and he will never stop doing it because he said a few words about him.
Especially the "old Fang" who always likes to have a black face, Ling'er never told herself what the specific name of this relative was, only told her surname Fang, ranking second.
Lao Fang is the chief manager of the branch and the manager of a store, and he is relieved.
Qin Shou thought about it, although there was an old party staring, but on the day of the opening, he still had to take a look.
......
Amid the crackling sound of firecrackers, three branches of the 'Benxin' grain store opened.
The opening of the new store must have activities, and the big words at the door are eye-catching.
"New products on the market, small grinding sesame oil, sesame paste ........"
"The opening discount is a big reward, and the price is 20%!"
"Today's Special ......"
Qin Shou has not yet arrived, but Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji have come.
Others don't know, but they know that the entire grain store in Chang'an, including the "Five Surnames and Seven Wangs", is suppressing the 'Benxin' grain store, so when they heard that Qin Shou was going to open a new store, they were extremely unoptimistic.
Can....... The two of them were dressed in ordinary clothes, standing not far from the front of the branch, and were directly stunned by the crowd in front of them.
Even though they had seen the opening of Suzaku Street before, they didn't expect that there would be more people coming to the branch than before.
The crowd of Wuyang Wuyang, I don't know if it's really buying things or just watching the excitement, but the popularity is really like boiling, which is staggering.
Although the branch is not as large as the total store area, it is not small, but it is already crowded with people.
Except for two clerks who were transferred from the head office, the others were all newcomers, where had they seen this situation, people were stupid, and kept shouting to maintain order, but their voices were dumb, but with little effect.
"Close the door!"
Qin Shou was frightened by this battle as soon as he came, and decisively ordered the guys in the store to close the door.
Nima!
In this case, if you step on someone to death, you will be finished.
Therefore, I can only let the people inside go out after buying things first, and then let people in.
The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the crazy crowd, his mouth was open enough to stuff his fists, and for a long time, he sighed in a daze: "Such a grand occasion is unbelievable!" ”
"No wonder, Qin Shou will say, this is a good business!"
Li Shimin walked closer, and was squeezed by the surging crowd, but the hundred horsemen and the guards were all sweating profusely, and they were squeezed around.
The door of the 'Benxin' grain store was also creaked.
Feeling this atmosphere, Li Shimin's heart suddenly moved, "Auxiliary, let's go in and have a look?" ”
"That'...... Get in? Eldest Sun Wuji swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said.
Don't look at the two of them as imperial magnates, since they have eaten a few times at Qin Shou's place, their appetite has been dizzy during this time, and in the past, the housekeepers in the palace and the palace were responsible for purchasing, but now they suddenly sprouted in their hearts to go in and sweep it in person, and the impulse erupted like a volcano, and it was impossible to suppress it.
As soon as the words fell, the door of the 'Benxin' grain store creaked and collapsed.
The gate is much wider than other stores, but it can't accommodate many people!
"Oops, I've got it all, what are you robbing?"
"What about grain and oil, is there anything else? Bring me 50 barrels. ”
"Rice, give me a stone too."
A light and handsome woman with a narrow waist and a narrow back dragged the guy who sold grain.
The guy in the shop wiped his sweat and said, "I can't get a stone, and I can sell five buckets of rice at most ......."
In order to prevent people from taking advantage of loopholes, the purchase of rice grain is limited, and one person can buy up to one stone.
"Horse widow, do you want so much? , can you move on your back with your little body? Another fat woman with a big belly and a round waist sneered.
"You know a fart, it's so cheap, if you buy it, you can earn it, even if I can't carry it, I can't find a few men to carry it back for me?"
"If you want a man, I'll give you my five buckets too, and I'll carry you back together, what's the matter?" A man coaxed.
"Get out of the way, you don't like it!"
"Qiao Laosan, if you can carry me back, even the food will be yours." The fat woman laughed and said.
"I ...... The back does not move. The man's face was purple.
"Hahaha......" The crowd burst into laughter.
Qin Shou looked at this scene speechlessly, the people of Datang were really too honest.
It's just a small opening bonus and special promotion that can make so many people crazy.
One by one, they squeezed forward, using their hands and feet at the same time, and they wished they could use their teeth.
After a while, Qin Shou squeezed out of the crowd sweating profusely.
It's been almost half a day since it opened, and there are not only fewer people, but more and more people, squeezing in one by one.
He also saw the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin, but there were too many people to squeeze through.
I saw the two of them carrying buckets of grain and oil, sesame oil, and sesame paste...... Don't forget to shout behind them, it seems that someone is helping them move out.
Qin Shou couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
Do you have your own shop?
Besides, if you buy so much, there are so many people in the family, then you have to eat until the Year of the Monkey!
As everyone knows, the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin looked at the things they had and felt that there were still too few, what about so many people in the palace, how many days could this last?
