Chapter 18: Skyline Sales
After a day of fierce sales, because it was a furniture store, out of the need for fire prevention, in this era when there were no electric lights, Zhenmutang had to close early.
In the small courtyard behind the store, Shopkeeper Xue finished calculating the accounts, and when he saw the amount on the account book, he was stunned and speechless for a long time. He is not a man who has never seen the world, he has been rolling in the cruel business world since his apprenticeship, and he has heard many legends of getting rich overnight. Today he will have the privilege of being a part of the legend.
What exactly is this sale in Zhenmutang? Shopkeeper Xue feels that he needs to study it carefully, is it really furniture? The current sales are not counting the auction on the second floor, just counting the mid-range furniture on the first floor, which is enough to sell tens of thousands of taels of silver.
You must know that these mid-range furniture priced by Zhu Youzhen himself, a rocking chair made of ordinary wood, is priced at 15 taels of silver. A set of sofa coffee tables, the price is 80 taels of silver (he calculated according to one tael of silver = 100 yuan). It's crazy that so many pieces have been sold at such a high price. This seriously challenged the professional nerves of the shopkeeper Xue. (The price of grain in the second year of the Apocalypse is about 0.8 taels of silver for 1 stone of rice, and a family of 4 medium-sized people can't use 3 taels of silver a month.) )
For this sales, Shopkeeper Xue has not counted the orders placed by large households in the single room on the second floor. If you add in the amount of those high-end orders, the sales will at least double again. The whole amount was already large, so that Shopkeeper Xue wondered if he was drunk or dazzled, this was just a day's sales.
Zhenmutang's sales account book was sent to Zhu Youzhen. Zhu Youzhen pressed his excitement for a moment before slowly opening the account book. He looked directly at the amount, and a smile appeared on his face, but he couldn't help but want to laugh wildly in his heart. He kept reminding himself, "Steady, steady, isn't it just a little silver?" He glanced at the ledger again, "Haha, haha, isn't it just a little bit of 10 tens of thousands of taels of silver?" He still couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing, a crisp laugh that spread throughout the hall.
Wang Chengen looked at His Royal Highness King Xin, who was laughing, and his eyes were full of admiration. The little King of Letters, who had not yet grown up, instantly grew taller in his eyes. "His Royal Highness King Xin is really amazing, a shop can earn so much money in one day, 10 tens of thousands of taels! How did he come up with that kind of sale? Wang Chengen's eyes are all pictures of the auction products.
Zhu Youzhen slowly suppressed his laughter, remembered today's hot scene, and secretly rejoiced that Zhenmutang could accept silver bills to pay the bill according to his regulations. Otherwise, such a large sales volume would be difficult to manage. But thinking of the fees charged by Qian Zhuang for keeping the silver, Zhu Youzhen's childish little face immediately turned cloudy, and he sighed silently, "Alas, in this world, not only does there be no interest on depositing silver, but you also have to spend money to keep it, is there any heavenly reason?" ”
Zhu Youzhen, who has made a lot of money, told Wang Chengen that each guy in Zhenmutang will be paid double salary this month, and the shopkeeper Xue will reward 50 taels of silver, but they must be reminded that the sales of Zhenmutang must be kept strictly confidential.
The first day of opening of Zhenmutang was a great event. In the following days, although the sales were not as impressive as the first day, they were steadily around 10,000 taels a day. The operation of the store is on the right track, and with Shopkeeper Xue staring at the store, Zhu Youzhen can start his own upgrade road with confidence.
With the support of our own workshop, all kinds of model accessories are quickly ready. It only took three days for Zhu Youzhen to successfully rise to level 2.
Upgraded to level 2, the system god showed a very simple table in Zhu Youzhen's brain: level 2 exchangeable options.
In the table, the options for ships are no longer just one of the only ones, but have skyrocketed to more than 50 at once. At the top of the list is a catamaran canoe, followed by various small plank boats.
Boat accessories include spikes, ropes, mud, plaster, and nets in addition to penny, wood pulp, and oars.
"Nets?" Zhu Youzhen asked God in surprise, "Is it a fishing net for fishing?" ”
"That's right, it's a fishing net." God replied.
"This net is also an accessory? How do you use it? Zhu Youzhen asked curiously.
"Of course, fishing boats need to be equipped with fishing nets." God said as a matter of course, and then explained, "This is an important accessory for professional boats." ”
"Accessories for professional boats?" Zhu Youzhen's eyes lit up. He couldn't help but wonder if if this was the case, when he got the drawings of the aircraft carrier, he would be able to exchange the drawings of the carrier-based aircraft and the supporting weapons and ammunition drawings at the same time.
In order to verify his wonderful idea, Zhu Youzhen carefully browsed each of the level 2 exchange items. From seeing the introduction, it can be inferred that his idea cannot be effectively verified at present. Because the Class 2 convertible ships are simple wooden boats, there are no supporting facilities. Of all the models, only a few small boats are marked with the word "fishing boat".
Zhu Youzhen couldn't hold back his excitement and took the initiative to ask God.
God coldly poured a scoop of cold water on Zhu Youjian, "The level is not enough, and the query authority is insufficient." ”
Zhu Youzhen sighed helplessly, and shouted in his heart: "Work hard, boy!" Keep fighting for the upgrade. I hope to get to level 3 and have a happy answer. ”
Now that he has money in hand, Zhu Youzhen first sent one to the cheap eldest brother Zhu Youxiao. This is the first time I have earned money in this life, which is equivalent to the first time I have paid a salary in my previous life. After making so much money, you have to find someone to share your joy. Okay, okay, just to put on a show.
Zhu Youzhen ran to Changchun Palace with a silver ticket in his hand. Dizzy, Zhu Youxiao was not here, and the disappointed Zhu Youzhen had to go back. "Well, I shouldn't have gone to the court, I went to that palace to play something inappropriate for children, it's daytime?" Zhu Youzhen slandered Zhu Youxiao while walking.
Zhu Youxiao, who was slandered by Zhu Youjiao, was worried about money in the Qianqing Palace, and even lost interest in carpentry work for the time being.
Since Sun Chengzong took away 800,000 taels, the civil officials of the front court have been shouting all day long, there is no money, life can't go on, what do you think the emperor should do? Their eyes are always on Neku. But Wei Zhongxian said that there was not much money in the inner treasury. You have to find a way to make money, it's hard to kill Zhu Youxiao.
Except for the money given to Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Youzhen can only store all the remaining silver temporarily. Although he has memories of his previous life, he remembers the saying that only when money is circulating can he create greater value, but he can't find a good investment project for a while.
Through Wang Chengen's reminder, Zhu Youzhen remembered that the cash collected by Zhenmutang did not need to be sent to the money bank for safekeeping, and he still had a letter to the palace, and the palace already had silver treasury facilities! At this stage, there should be no one in the capital who dares to rob the palace.
The store doesn't need to go over every day, and Zhu Youzhen resumed his otaku life. He stayed in the Ciqing Palace, assembling various redeemed models and slowly accumulating points. While waiting for Chu Tianxing to send him information, a piece of information that is crucial at this stage. This information will be relevant to his next plan and the direction of his actions.
