Chapter 422: The Doorway of the Shop

Shops can't get around food, clothing, housing and transportation. Tailor shops, restaurants, restaurants, inns, post houses...... These are meant to be. But before the long street, there were already scattered shops all over the city, and I had to think not only about the needs of my customers, but also trying to compete with them.

Fortunately, the new long street is in the middle of the city and easy to access. The two ends connected the common people to the city's magnates, and there were also paths between the shops on the long street that led to the four sides of the city. As long as the prices of the items sold in the shops are reasonable, the residents will soon change their habits and come to the shops on the long street to spend money.

Thanks to Liu Jia's wealth, he got the title deed of the entire street. If there is no scale like Long Street, there are only a few shops, even if it is a necessity, it may not be able to compete with the locals in the city.

Me: "This is a planning map, and the type and order of the stores are roughly the same as those of Yanju City Long Street. ”

Yoyo: "Why is it the same?" ”

Me: "I wanted to overturn the old plan and rearrange it, but I found that the shops on Yanju City Changjie made sense. Tourists are tired of shopping, go to the teahouse to sit. It is true that the people like to go to the shops, and some of the shops are old stores, with a reputation and reputation, so it is a pity not to arrange them. The prices of the shops connected to the imperial city are on the high side, and the quality of the goods is also very high. That's because the dignitaries have a lot of money, can afford it, and really need it, and they won't go to the end of the long street to see low-grade goods. For example, if a brocade silk shop and a business that focuses on raw silk, they will only go to the brocade silk shop and not look at raw silk. So, I didn't swap them out. ”

Youyou: "Most of the people in the city are courtiers, and the people in the city are just county orders, and the official ranks are completely different." The largest official in the city was barely able to go to court, and many of the rest didn't even know what the current saint looked like, and they could get along well with the common people. ”

Me: "That...... Then it should be reversed. High-end goods are indeed a must, but it is also necessary to bypass the stores frequented by civilians in order to understand the people's feelings? ”

Yoyo inspired: "Look again, do you need brocade silk?" ”

Me: "However, brocade silk is very profitable, and there are many mulberry farmers around the city. ”

Youyou nodded: "Yes, they sell silk fabrics to Yanju City." ”

"I see...... It's not for personal use. How did the inhabitants of the city live so frugally? As I spoke, I opened the account book of a certain city and said in surprise, "The food in the city is so expensive......

Yoyo asked, "Why does the princess think the price of food is so expensive?" ”

Me: "There is no arable land around the city, and the grain has to be transported from Yanju City." I once heard in Xia's house that some rice merchants sold rice to villages in the surrounding cities and counties such as Fucheng, because the soil here was so sticky that the water seeped deep into the soil, and the cultivation was laborious, and the harvest was also very bad. Families have a few plots of land, but instead of growing food, they grow mulberry trees and fruit groves. Fabrics are sold cheaper than in other cities, and clay pots are so cheap that almost every household can make them themselves, so much so that there is not a single clay shop. In short, they were frugal and toiled, just exchanging the silk fabrics that were rare in other cities for food. ”

Youyou nodded: "The people take food as the sky, and food is the most basic need." ”

The title deeds of Long Street were all bought by Liu Jia, and it seemed that the rent was free, but in fact they were all counted in the interest, and I needed to pay it off with interest after a year. And I have to plan for myself, as long as I have enough income, these stores will become my own business, so I have to make as much profit as possible.

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
