Chapter 58: Badass
Li Yao carried a bamboo basket into the town, and the road in the town was paved with polished stone slabs, although it was also a little uneven, but it was much more comfortable to walk on than the dirt roads in the countryside.
Houses on both sides of the road are next to each other, and the living conditions are much more crowded than in the countryside.
This town is called Yangmi Town, the whole town is not big, from east to west, from south to north is not more than five kilometers, walk around the town, two or three hours is enough.
But the population of Yangmi Town is quite large, and there are many wealthy merchants.
Li Yao carried the bamboo basket on his back and quickly arrived at the vegetable market in the south of the town.
There are shops throughout the market, and there are also stalls set up directly on the street.
There are people coming and going on a street, and there are shouts, bargains, and chats and gossips everywhere, which seems to be very lively.
It was the first time Li Yao saw such an original ancient vegetable market, and she felt strange when she saw everything for a while, and she couldn't help but take a walk around the entire vegetable market.
There are those who sell vegetables, fish, pork, live chickens and ducks, grain, oil and spices, pots and pans, fruits and mushrooms, and of course eggs.
Li Yao walked around and found out about the market price of eggs.
The eggs here are not cheap compared to the market price here, and an egg costs two cents.
If you want to set up a stall here, there is no trouble, you just need to rent a place in front of someone else's store to set up a stall, otherwise people will not let you sell things in front of other people's stores.
The rent is generally not expensive, some are calculated by the day and some are calculated by the month, and the monthly rent is relatively cost-effective, ranging from a dozen to hundreds of dollars per month.
The main thing is that the shopkeeper needs to decide how much to charge depending on how much space you use and whether the things you sell are dirty or not.
After all, if the street outside the front of the house is dirty, the shopkeeper also needs to be responsible for hygiene.
And the daily rent is a bit uneconomical, anyway, the cheapest has to start at a penny.
Some vegetable sellers have a bad business, and they don't necessarily sell a few pennies a day.
Of course, if the business is good, you don't have to worry about this rent, after all, there are dense residents nearby, and the flow of people is quite large, as long as you have a little brain, you can make money here.
Li Yao found a shop that sold pots and pans and other groceries, and she noticed that there was no one setting up a stall in front of this store, and this store was relatively close to the street, and there were no stalls selling eggs nearby, which was very conducive to her selling eggs.
A woman was sitting in front of the grocery store embroidering a handkerchief, and Li Yao stepped forward to ask.
"This aunt, can I rent a stall in front of the door?"
The woman couldn't help but be stunned when she saw such a young child like Li Yao carrying a bamboo basket on her back to ask about renting a stall, then she reacted and nodded kindly, and asked with a smile:
"Little girl, what are you selling? Selling things that are too dirty, auntie, this is not rented. ”
Li Yao immediately smiled, her eyes curved into a crescent moon and said, "Auntie, I'll sell some eggs, and I won't stain your door." ”
As she spoke, Li Yao also unloaded the bamboo basket and lifted the cloth in the basket to show the woman.
The woman was slightly stunned when she saw that there were still a lot of eggs in Li Yao's back basket, which were densely placed together.
The people in this market come to sell eggs, and those who don't just take one or twenty eggs come to sell them, and some take forty or fifty eggs.
After all, if there are seven or eight hens at home, even if it is a large chicken farmer, a hen can lay an egg in about three days on average, even if a large chicken farmer saves ten days and a half months, and saves forty or fifty chickens.
This girl is good, she looks at this basket and there are hundreds!
How many chickens do you have to keep at home, and how long do you have to save eggs to save so much?
"Little girl, are all your eggs fresh?" The woman was a little suspicious that the egg on Li Yao's back might be a bad egg.
