Chapter 98: Deliberately making things difficult
There are 20 counties in a county in the Tianxiao Continent, 20 towns in a county, and 20 villages in a town.
Feng'an Town is one of the twenty towns in Baihua County, located in the southeast of Wujimen.
At a distance of about thirty miles, Zhang Tianzong and Hou Wenxuan set off at about ten o'clock in the morning and arrived at their destination before one o'clock in the afternoon.
"How many people are there in this Feng'an Town?"
Looking at the town in front of him, Hou Wenxuan said curiously.
"The small towns in the Tianxiao Continent generally have a permanent population of about 5,000 to 10,000 people, and Feng'an Town should be the same. ”
"Only one-tenth of the county town of Fallen Leaves?"
"Almost. ”
"Then according to the fact that there is one cultivator among thirty ordinary people, if there are six thousand people in Feng'an Town, there are only about two hundred cultivators. ”
"Thirty to one is an average number," Zhang Tianzong shook his head: "It's actually the county town of the Tianxiao Continent, and one out of every five people should be able to cultivate." ”
"If there is one out of seven or eight people in the county seat, if it is a town, one out of fifty people can cultivate, it is considered good, and the proportion in the village is even lower. ”
"In other words, Feng'an Town doesn't even have two hundred cultivators?"
"Probably. ”
"Then what are we doing here?" Hou Wenxuan said puzzled.
"I told you before I opened the store. ”
"Cultivators with less than two hundred still have to compete with other shops in Feng'an Town, how much business can they have?"
"What I fancy is not the cultivators of Feng'an Town, but the thousands of disciples of Wuji Sect. ”
"What do you mean?"
"There is a fourth-level forest in the east of Feng'an Town and a third-level forest in the north, if the Wuji Gate miscellaneous disciples want to go to these two forests, Feng'an Town is the only way to go. ”
"So that's the case," Hou Wenxuan suddenly realized.
Zhang Tianzong said with a smile: "If the two thousand or so miscellaneous disciples of Wuji Sect are all buying pills and spiritual weapons in the shop I opened, then there is no problem at all in earning hundreds of thousands of lower grade spirit stones a month. ”
"You just dream," Hou Wenxuan said angrily: "How is it possible to have all, a third is good." ”
"Even if we earn 10,000 low-grade spirit stones a month, it's better than us being small traders. ”
"This is a fact, I have been a small trader for so many years, and at most I earn 2,300 low-grade spirit stones a month, and the average is less than 1,000 yuan a month. ”
Zhang Tianzong nodded, even Hou Wenxuan could only earn so little when he went to the trading center every day, not to mention that he had to go to Baishui Forest every once in a while.
If Zhang Tianzong remembered correctly, the most he earned before was 1,900 lower grade spirit stones a month, and the average was about 500 a month.
"Let's go," looking at the town in front of him, Zhang Tianzong said proudly: "Our dream of making money starts here!"
"Then let's go, it's a mule or a horse, and we have to pull it out and slip away." I really don't believe it, the two of us are not as good as those shopkeepers in terms of their ability to make money!"
Zhang Tianzong let out a 'hmm' and walked into Feng'an Town side by side with Hou Wenxuan.
After a lap, Zhang Tianzong nodded with satisfaction.
Although there are three shops selling aura and pills in Feng'an Town, the quality is not good.
In particular, one of them didn't even have a first-grade elixir.
But Zhang Tianzong can now refine even the second-grade best elixir, let alone the first-grade.
"It's indeed a good choice to open a store here," Hou Wenxuan sighed: "If it's Fallen Leaf City, there are at least ten or more shops that sell spiritual artifact pills, not to mention the three major trading houses. ”
Zhang Tianzong nodded, there are indeed many cultivators in the county, but the competition for the shop house is also great.
The small town is different, and it is impossible for the three major commercial houses to open branches in the town.
Even if you don't have Wujimen, opening a store in Feng'an Town is a good choice.
After looking at the sky, it was already about five o'clock in the afternoon.
"Let's go, find an inn to stay in first, and then go to the Law Enforcement Hall in Feng'an Town tomorrow to apply for a business permit. ”
"We don't rent shops?"
"What are you renting," Zhang Tianzong said with a smile: "With the permit, I will buy a piece of land on the street or at the end of the street to build a building, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and we cultivators really don't care about it." ”
"That's fine, let's go, let's go to that inn, the name sounds pretty good. ”
"Good. ”
.......
There are law enforcers in Zhaojia Village, and Feng'an Town naturally has them.
Lu Qiang is the enforcer of Feng'an Town, and he is a second-level enforcer in the Wuji Gate, and there are five first-level enforcers to assist him in managing Feng'an Town.
If the affairs of Zhaojia Village are decided by Zhou Zhi, a first-level law enforcer, then in Feng'an Town, what Lu Qiang said represents Wujimen, and no one dares to disobey it at all.
"If you want to open a store, you can, just register and remember to pay taxes once a year in the future. ”
Zhang Tianzong and Hou Wenxuan explained their intentions, and Lu Qiang said simply.
In Lu Qiang's opinion, managing a town is actually very simple, as long as the contradictions between the residents are resolved, let them live in Feng'an Town in peace, and then check the innate cultivation talent of babies born in Feng'an Town every year.
As for the merchants who set up shop in Feng'an Town, the more the better.
After all, in addition to handing over 20% of the profits to Wujimen every year, these people also have to spend extra money to curry favor with themselves.
And what Lu Qiang needs to do is only occasionally send someone to check the account books of the other party's store, and he can't waste much energy at all.
In less than ten minutes, Zhang Tianzong filled in the information.
Lu Qiang looked at it casually, and was about to put down the information, and then hurriedly took it to his eyes.
glanced at Zhang Tianzong, the miscellaneous disciples of Wuji Sect are the same age, and they should be the same person.
"No," Lu Qiang said expressionlessly as he threw the materials on the table.
"What?" said Zhang Tianzong in surprise.
"I said, you can't open a store in Feng'an Town!"
"Why?" Zhang Tianzhong wondered.
"You're not an adult. ”
"It seems that there is no rule in Wuji Gate that minors are not allowed to open shops, right?"
"That's it," Hou Wenxuan reminded, "I have a friend who is fourteen years old and hasn't opened a store in Luoye County. ”
"The scope of experience in your shop is to sell pills. But you're only twelve years old, if the quality of the pills you sell is not good enough to kill people, who will be responsible for tracking it down when the time comes?"
"It must be me," Zhang Tianzong said dryly.
"What are you responsible for as a child?"
Zhang Tianzong frowned, always feeling that something was wrong.
Yes, Zida once said that it is easy to get a business license, unless the local law enforcers deliberately make it difficult.
Glancing at Lu Qiang again, Zhang Tianzong was 100% sure that he had not offended the other party at all before.
"What are you looking at, hurry up, don't delay my office," Lu Qiang said angrily.
Even Jiang Hao can't win against this guy, and he definitely can't win either, Jiang Hao can only rely on himself if he wants revenge.
But since this guy took the initiative to come to the door, Lu Qiang really didn't mind letting the other party eat a closed door.
Anyway, he has already given a reason, and even if this guy reports the matter, he has an excuse to deal with it.
As for whether Zhang Tianzong will take revenge on him, Lu Qiang is not worried at all.
Beat the law enforcer, don't say that this guy is just a miscellaneous disciple, even an inner disciple doesn't dare to deal with himself.
You must know that the Law Enforcement Hall is the most powerful force in the Wuji Gate!
