Chapter 32: The Store Is Stable
How much is the annual rent of a 300-square-meter single-family shop on Fuqian Road in the county seat? It is roughly estimated that at least four or five million, more than ten square meters of small shops selling milk tea cost thousands of yuan a month, and a detached house of 300 square meters may not be able to rent it if you have money.
Now, Liu Jun doesn't need to spend a penny, he can get the right to use it for a few years, this is a big stuffing worth tens of millions, and it fell on his head like this?
However, after inquiring with the master, Liu Jun found that he was still thinking too simply, not just a few years, it is likely to be the right to use for decades, and here we have to talk about the ancient people's livelihood security system.
In ancient counties, there were some businesses to protect people's livelihood, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, needles, threads, bedding, cloth and other necessities, if these things are in shortage, it is easy to cause prices to rise, the county government needs to stabilize prices, protect people's livelihood, there must be someone to engage in these businesses.
However, in ancient times, it was not always possible to make money in business, especially in the business of daily necessities, and it was normal to adjust prices and go out of business at a loss.
Other businesses, such as restaurants and green buildings, will go out of business if they go out of business, and if the grain, oil and rice store goes out of business, then the problem is Daluo.
As a result, various measures to prevent the closure of daily necessities stores have been introduced, such as government-run, government-run private, government-private partnership, monopoly, and so on.
Of course, no matter which one it is, it will eventually be reduced to a channel for officials to fill their own pockets and give and receive privately, the difference is only that some officials are more greedy and some officials are less greedy, and at least part of it is set aside for protection.
After listening to the introduction, Liu Jun first felt inappropriate, tofu brain is not qualified to become a people's livelihood security project, right? But after thinking about it, no, tofu brain provides plant protein, strengthens people's physique, and is the right way to properly protect people's livelihood.
Thinking of this, Liu Jun accepted this big pie with peace of mind, but he still couldn't help but think in his heart: "Didn't the county magistrate take a fancy to me, a widow?" Give such a big gift as soon as you meet? ”
I had already prepared a store in the county, and all the preparations were in place, and now the store is also available, and the large army has pulled over to make some preparations, and it will be open for business the next day.
Because the area of the store is surprisingly large, not only can all the grinding and steaming processes be moved to the county, but even the family can be moved over, and there are six rooms in the backyard, which can accommodate his family of twelve, and the conditions are much better than the dilapidated house at home.
But Liu Jun has no idea of moving out at all, in this era, he is a female streamer, and it is safest to rely on the clan, and if he really wants to move out, he will be remembered by a bunch of jackals, tigers and leopards.
I stayed in the county for five or six days, straightened out the whole business, and expanded the product line by the way.
"Tofu brain, it's tofu brain when it's thin, it's tofu when it's done, it's dried tofu, it's stinky tofu when it's stinky, it's edamame tofu when it's hairy, it's not bad to do anything, but it has its own characteristics, what you need to do is to remember the order, keep the taste consistent, and make the flavor of tomorrow and today's products consistent."
Liu Jun carefully instructed Li Shihu, he was going to leave Li Shihu to take care of the store, produce different tofu products every day, and provide them to the remaining eight households, which is equivalent to a total wholesale.
As long as he holds the secret of the point brine process, no matter how big Li Shihu is, he can't get out of his control, and he has to hand over a lot of profits.
The reason why Li Shihu was chosen was not only because he had no one available, but also because Li Shihu was the youngest and relatively easy to control.
Li Shihu listened very carefully, he had been following Li Sihu to eat mixed rice before, busy plowing the fields, shaving iron in the slack, tired and tired, but he didn't save a few dollars.
In fact, he has almost learned the craft of blacksmithing, but he has no money to buy a set of household belongings, and he has no way to stand on his own.
I thought that I would have to live like this for the rest of my life, but who knew that after a few days of messing with Liu Jun, he saw hope, and he earned more than 200 wen in one day, and after saving for a month or two, he would have money to buy his family.
But now, Li Shihu can't look down on the hard work of striking iron, how can he make tofu brains to make money quickly?
Besides, his biological brother is still secretive about him, but Liu Jun is an outsider, but he can teach him this kind of independent craft, and he is worthy of a master.
Not only him, but other people who have learned to make tofu brains have similar thoughts in their hearts, and without Liu Jun's permission, they dare not pass on this craft casually.
After experiencing the scene of his sister-in-law's resurrection, Li Shihu not only respected, but also admired Liu Jun, and naturally became more and more focused on Liu Jun's teaching.
After all the things were arranged, it was already five days later, but what Liu Jun had been waiting for had not happened: "Could it be that those people have retreated?" ”
What Liu Jun said was naturally the Zhu family in the mouthful of the housekeeper, but what he didn't know was that the fact that he was invited into the palace to take a turn had a more far-reaching impact than he thought.
On the night he came out of the county office, Zhu Wu was kicked to the ground by Zhu Neng: "Why didn't you tell me that the widow knew Zi Gongzi?" also pleased the old lady, and even the prince was coaxed to give her an official workshop, you almost killed me, get out. ”
Zhu Wu was kicked out with a bewildered face, and he was so aggrieved that he wanted to cry: Where did I know these .......
Leaving Li Shihu and others in the county seat, Liu Jun was ready to return to the village with a full amount of more than a dozen taels of silver, which were all earned in the past five or six days, and after the tofu brain business was rolled out, it could be called a huge profit.
Under the hunger marketing in the early stage, word of mouth and demand have completely detonated, and now whether it is morning or night, there are people who want to drink a bowl.
After Liu Jun also developed the sweet and sour taste, the demand will be greater.
Because there is no sugar, the sweet tofu brain is made of sweet water made of maltose and honey, and the price is so expensive that a bowl of tofu brain sells for 12 yuan.
So Liu Jun didn't do much, just tentatively launched a little to test the market's reaction, and then sold out again, and the sweet tofu brain was in short supply.
I heard that the supply is not much, first come, first served, young ladies and grandmothers who have tasted sweet tofu brains, and send their families to line up at the door before dawn.
Seeing the hot demand, Liu Jun not only vetoed the proposal to increase production, but also reduced the daily supply of sweet syrup to 30 bowls, and raised the price to 20 wen per bowl.
The sour and spicy flavor of tofu brain is made of dogwood peppercorns, the spicy taste is not as pure as the chili pepper, but it can't bear the lack of flavor in this year, there is no monosodium glutamate and various seasonings, it is difficult for ordinary people to eat something with taste, and even have a little taste, and they do not hesitate to eat vinegar cloth.
Do you know what vinegar cloth is? It's just a black and sour ball of cloth, cut a piece and throw it down every time you stew .......
The sweet and sour taste is not authentic for Liu Jun, but it is enough to shock the taste buds of many people in this era.
On the fifth day, the shop launched dried tofu and water tofu, and set up two large pots to stir-fry dried tofu and tofu stewed fish there, the fragrance attracted half the street of people, and even the housewife and daughter-in-law who had never set foot in the tofu shop came around, and Liu Jun knew that his store was stable.
Driving the carriage, carrying the materials purchased in the county during this time, carrying a dozen taels of silver, Liu Jun and his party had just left the city gate not far away, and they saw two and a half children kneeling on the side of the road, with a grass ring on their heads, and a woman beside them, looking at Liu Jun and his party from a distance.
"What's going on? What are they doing? Liu Jun was shocked and asked Li Qiye, who was driving the car, and he vaguely guessed the answer in his heart.
Li Qiye sighed, and said helplessly and pityingly: "What else can you do, it's just a girl selling a girl." ”
