Chapter 42 The purchasing power of the noblewomen "pawns wear uniforms, and farmers wear silk shoes", which is the performance of the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty in its heyday, the peddlers and pawns are dressed like officials, the peasants are all wearing silk and satin, and the business is very developed. In fact, at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, this kind of scene has appeared, after all, Lao Zhao has been on the throne for 16 years, thanks to his Hongfu, there is really not much drought and flood disaster in this world, 16 years of wind and rain, plus the Khitan people are not suitable for the life of farming in the Central Plains, Yelu Deguang took the Great Liao to occupy the 16 states of Yanyun and had to return to Yanmen Pass, since then for a long time, the Khitan rarely come to the Central Plains to harass, so that the economic level of the Great Song Dynasty has been greatly improved.

For the first time, the country's commercial tax revenue surpassed that of agriculture, and there were more than 300 commercial banks in Bianjing City alone, with many industries and a detailed division of labor, and even some seemingly inconspicuous small transactions, such as peeling lotus seeds, that is, selling peeled lotus seeds to fruit shops and pharmacies, such a small business could even become an industry and feed a group of people in the industry.

Marx said, 'When the productive forces develop to a certain extent, the abundance of the material base will make the division of labor in society more refined.' This kind of detailed division of labor in Bianjing City shows that the material base of the Great Song Dynasty is rich, and the price of grain is even lower than that of the Tang Dynasty.

The world always runs in one way or another, and the division of classes in human beings is in such a law, since the end of the Yao Shunyu era, there is a Xia Dynasty with a family in the world, and materials are no longer in the hands of the public, but concentrated in the hands of a few, and Xungui is a minority in this category.

They control most of the money and materials of the whole society, they are rich and luxurious, they are the envy of the whole society, they are also a powerful force of imperial power, they are the masters of the whole society, they have a unified class name, that is: 'noble class'

In the past few days, among the many nobles in Bianjing, there is a shop that has gradually become popular, that is, a new overseas grocery store opened on Panlou Street, called: 'Bianjing Supermarket', which sells all some amazing magical items, there are exquisite glass cups, there are one-key unsolvable Guigu locks, and metal tables and chairs made by Lu Ban's descendants, these things can be seen in the Bianjing supermarket.

At first, this shop was only circulated among a small range of low-level nobles, but later it gradually developed into many wealthy businessmen and high-ranking officials, and it also spread more and more widely

Bianjing City, Suzaku Street, Shifu.

A high-rise mansion compound, magnificent, the courtyard is planted with all kinds of flowers and plants, in some conspicuous places, there are some very valuable ornaments, such as three-foot-high blood coral, a few inches long ancient potted plants all show the owner's wealthy identity.

In a courtyard carved with gold, there stood an elegant attic, and in the living room on the first floor of this attic, two brightly dressed women were talking.

"Sister~ I haven't seen you for a long time, are you here to smell your sister's green silk fragrance?" A young-looking, delicate-looking woman asked another woman who was slightly yellow.

"Oh? Why did my sister suddenly remember to let my sister smell this hair? Could it be that some new perfume was used? The pearl yellow woman said, her hands also moved, I saw her holding up the hair of the charming woman, just picked it up, she became a little uncalm, and carefully touched the hair of the charming woman, only to be shocked: "Why has my sister's hair become so silky?" ”

The charming woman covered her mouth and chuckled, "Sister hasn't heard it yet~"

The pearl yellow girl hurriedly lifted her long black hair, put it in front of her nose, sniffed vigorously, and then the whole person became even more uncalm.

"So fragrant! It's like emanating from the hair, making the hair so soft and fragrant, how did my sister do it?! ”

The charming woman smiled lightly and blinked before asking, "I don't know if my sister has heard about it in the past few days, but now there is a 'Bianjing Supermarket' that sells things only for Xungui on Panlou Street in Bianjing?" ”

Hearing the charming girl ask like this, the Zhuhuang girl also nodded thoughtfully and said, "I have indeed heard of it, but what is so brilliant about the market vendors?" ”

When the charming woman heard Zhu Huang Nu say this, she immediately covered her mouth and laughed, "Sister fallacy~ Sister fallacy." After no longer laughing, he said: "My sister doesn't know, what that shop sells is different from those ordinary merchants, the things sold in this 'Bianjing Supermarket' are all goods that I have never seen in the Great Song Dynasty, I heard that they are all trafficked from overseas, and the reason why my sister's three thousand green silks have become smooth and fragrant now is because of the 'shampoo cream' sold in the store." ”

After the charming woman finished speaking, she took out two small packets of plastic bags from her sleeve robe, on which the words 'Tianchen Shampoo' were written in traditional Chinese.

"This is for my sister?"

"Exactly." The charming woman seems to be very proud, "Sister only needs to moisten her hair with hot water, and then use this shampoo to rub a column of incense, the essence of this shampoo can be integrated into the hair, and then rinse it with water several times after washing, to ensure that my sister's three thousand green silk becomes as soft and fragrant as my sister~"

Hearing the charming woman say this, the pearl yellow woman was already a little impatient, only to see her swallow saliva, she could bear it, and finally said: "How much is this shampoo?" Are there any of them still sold? ”

"This kind of good thing, the price is naturally very expensive, this bag can be sold for 20 yuan in the supermarket, but it is better than the quantity, and you can use this thing to nourish your hair every day in the future, which is an indispensable good thing."

Hearing that it was only sold for twenty yuan, Zhu Huangnu suddenly smiled, "Just twenty yuan ~ Sister try it first, if it's good, what if you buy hundreds of packs and put them at home, when the time comes, my sister wants it, come to my sister's house to get it~"

Hearing what the Zhuhuang girl said, the charming girl also smiled and said: "I have long heard that my sister's family is rich and rich, and the stone servant is a member of the court, and he is also the righteous brother of His Majesty, and now he is one of the best nobles in Bianjing, and my sister is really envious." ”

Zhu Huangnu also prevaricated with a little pride: "Isn't General Wang of my sister's family also Your Majesty's righteous brother~ The family doesn't talk to each other, let's take a walk, let's try the effect of this shampoo first"

The first store in the Great Song Dynasty opened, but it was different from Jiang Yin's expectations, the most sold things in the whole store were not precision locks, nor exquisite glasses, not to mention metal furniture, the best things sold were actually shampoo and shower gel, and the spread speed of the shop among the ladies was much faster than other channels, it was only three days after opening, with the introduction and spread of the first batch of users, shampoo and shower gel were sold out three times in three days, and six hundred packs were quickly bought.

With a net profit of 20 guan per pack, the total income is 12,000 guan, which is converted into 6 million yuan, not counting other goods sold, which not only makes Jiang Yin sigh, in any era, the purchasing power of the ladies is so terrible
