Chapter 434: In the Mutual Market
Suddenly, she shut up, and the whole person felt bad, it turned out that in this Rama City, there were portraits of Tong Wu pasted everywhere, and there was a bounty below, and anyone who provided clues to everything could get a bounty of one hundred taels, this is gold!
"What's going on? This, this ......"
When Tong Wu saw this scene, her mood became more and more dull, no wonder Xuanyuan Yuchen only left her a hundred taels of silver, just because she was afraid that she would do business and come here to rest with each other
Why did Qingfeng Fort let them enter Buzhou from the Mazhuang outpost, because he knew that they would not be able to pass through the mutual market at all.
And now, all the streets and alleys are plastered with her portrait, and the portrait also says that she killed King Xuan, which is really infuriating.
"Lady, why don't we go back?" Bi Chen's mission is to protect Tong Wu's safety, and seeing this in the city, she is really worried.
"If he is really caught, maybe I will be able to meet him!" Tong Wu can see it.
"That's not good, then the prince will be very passive, and who knows what the prince will do, once, once ......" Bichen couldn't go down next, she was really afraid that something would happen.
"Don't worry, I'm fine!" Tong Wu could see that although there were a lot of portraits posted in Rama City, these portraits were posted at least half a month ago, and there were very few officers and soldiers in the city, so she believed that there would be nothing wrong today.
When the two of them entered the city, they didn't take a break, so they began to walk around the market.
To this mutual market is not ordinary, the whole city of Rama is doing business, medicinal herbs, grain, cloth, fur, carpets, fruits, clothing, shoes and hats are readily available, there is also an official salt station in the west of the city, where you can buy official salt.
There are also ironware for sale in Dongcheng, of course, it is also an official business, and the price is expensive, several percent more expensive than the ironware in Beizhou, no wonder the merchants of Western Xinjiang will go to Nanzhou to buy ironware, it is really because the official ironware in the mutual market is too expensive.
There are also various silver villages here, and even the Jintong Money Village recognized by Tong Wu has branches here.
Bichen followed Tong Wu closely, there are not many women on the street here, all the people who do business on both sides are men, and there are almost no women doing business on the street.
Bi Chen followed Tong Wu's side, the two of them were not dressed well, and they did not arouse the public's idea, even some merchants were very optimistic about them, even if they asked something, there were very few answers among these people.
Indeed, compared to these merchants, the two of them do seem to be quite poor, although this is also the case.
The two of them came to the medicinal herb market in Nancheng, where there were many shops, and advertisements were posted on the street, and some shops were actually selling pills.
Tong Wu entered the shop and asked, "Shopkeeper, do you have the Open Chest Shunqi Pill of the Holy Medical Hall here?" ”
"There are no pills from the Holy Doctor's Church, but do we have any pills from the Holy Ann's Church? There are also pills in Xinglin Yuan, these two pills have been particularly famous recently, and they are particularly easy to use, I heard that the Quartermaster Department of the capital has begun to use their pills. ”
When Tong Wu heard this, he frowned slightly, "The Quartermaster Department of the capital has used their pills?" ”
"yes, doesn't that Holy Doctor Hall think it's quite powerful? Some pills are not supplied to the common people, and as a result? Princess Xuan killed people and escaped, and the Holy Medical Hall was affected, and now it's over, the silent Sheng'an Hall and Xinglin Garden are on fire.
Not only that, but I heard that these two pharmaceutical companies have also been praised by the Empress Dojin, and they are now studying the drugs for the treatment of dysentery left by the former Holy Medical Hall, as long as this medicine comes out, these two will definitely be the largest pharmaceutical factories in Xuanyuan in the future......"
The shopkeeper asked, "Do you want it?" What about the price? The chest-opening and shunqi pills only cost fifteen yuan, and the wind and cold medicine only costs eighteen yuan, do you want it? Now many businessmen in Western Xinjiang come here to place orders, I don't make much money, you go to the capital to order, counting the freight is not necessarily less than mine. ”
Tong Wu shook his head and walked out of the pharmacy.
Immediately after that, the two went to two more pharmacies, which was the same situation, but there were two more brands of pills bought in this pharmacy, but he didn't care that this brand of medicine was good or something, and Tong Wu opened it on the spot to check, the quality of these two pills was very poor, the pills were like powder, and I was afraid that the taste was not much better.
Now it seems that only the pills of Sheng'an Hall and Xinglin Yuan are recognized by the imperial court.
And the two largest pharmaceutical companies are directly related to the queen.
The anger of Empress Tong Wu of Dao Rongzheng gradually rose, she sat in the cold powder shop on the side of the road, watching the people coming and going on the street, and her mood became more and more depressed, why should she give up her market to others?
Why didn't she dare to do the business she had done before, and still accept these judgments?
She took a deep breath, and Bi Chen on the side saw that her face was not good, and she didn't dare to speak, so she stayed by her side like that, and for a long time, Tong Wu suddenly stood up and walked towards the street.
"Lady, lady, what are you doing?" Bichen chased after him.
"Keep working!" She has only one purpose now, that is, to make money, only by making money, can she start again, Empress Rongzheng, she must let her know that even if she has nothing left, she can make a comeback.
The two came to another street, where there are more food businesses, bacon, rice, flour, oil, sugar, dairy products, and sweet fruits.
Tong Wu came to a store, only to see the word "rental" written on the front of the store, she originally wanted to sell her sugar flowers and fillings one by one, but now she found that this method is too slow to make money.
And tens of thousands of catties of things, if you don't do it, you can earn a few hundred taels, instead of being so time-consuming and laborious, she might as well save all the positions of the middlemen, and then go straight to the end.
So tens of thousands of catties of filling, made into moon cakes can become hundreds of thousands of catties, pasta things with the least operating profit are more than fifty percent, if the packaging is done, and then the moon cakes are made into gift boxes, and then into independent packaging, then the profit is likely to be in seven or eight percent, then it will be all money.
It's just one point, because the Mid-Autumn Festival is still about a month away, and the time is a little tight, and there is that she needs money and working capital.
But until then, she has to do another thing, and that is to rent a storefront.
"Uncle, is the owner of this shop here?" Tong Wu stood in front of the empty store and asked an old man who was enjoying the shade next to him.
"I'm just, you're going to rent a house? Check it out! "The old man is from Xuanyuan, he opened a rice noodle shop, next to him is his porter, but the store is a little, and the last merchant emptied the store because he didn't make money.
