12. Open in a low-key manner
During the Song and Song dynasties, the purchasing power of a tael of silver was beyond imagination.
For example, in the Water Margin, there is such a small detail.
In the fifteenth time, Wu Yong went to Shijie Village to meet the three Ruan brothers and handed Ruan Xiaoqi one or two pieces of silver to buy wine and food. What did Ruan Xiaoqi buy with these two pieces of silver?
A jar of wine enough for four people, two fat chickens, and 20 catties of cooked beef.
From this point, we can see the purchasing power of one or two pieces of silver in the Song Dynasty.
During the Song Dynasty, the daily salary of a migrant worker was about 100 Wen.
During the Song Dynasty, the state hired a migrant worker to build the castle, and the salary he paid a day was also 100 Wen.
However, Song Shenzong was the emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, the situation was different, and prices rose at least twice in the early Southern Song Dynasty.
During the period of Song Xiaozong, the salary of migrant workers who repaired water conservancy projects was 150 Wen, which was the same as the salary of soldiers of the Northern Song Dynasty.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, the standard of money was about 700 wen.
During the two Song Dynasty, one tael of silver could be converted into two pieces of money, and there may be changes during the period, but the magnitude of the change will not be too large.
Roughly calculated, ordinary people work for a month, which is two or three taels of silver.
All year round, that is, twenty or thirty taels of silver.
And now this shop costs 1,000 taels of shadows, and ordinary people have to work for at least decades without eating or drinking before they can afford to buy a store.
It can be seen that the store of this thousand taels is indeed not cheap.
But Rowe bought the shop anyway.
Not because this store is the most expensive, nor because this store has the most luxurious decoration, but because this store is next door to [Qimengxuan].
By the way, Qimengxuan is a place where fireworks often appear in ancient TV dramas.
It's full of women who need to be saved.
The reason why Luo Wei opened the store next door to Qimengxuan was naturally not to save these hard-working women.
He's not that kind of person.
However, Xiaoqing didn't believe it, and when Luo Wei set up the shop, she asked with a smile: "You set the shop here, should you go to that kind of place like those stinky men." ”
Luo Wei said righteously: "You think too much. ”
"Really?" Xiaoqing didn't believe it.
Luo Wei swore and said: "How can the girl of Qimengxuan compare with you and Su Zhen, the two are simply the same heaven and one earth, like the difference between clouds and mud." ”
"I'm used to seeing the two of you in the country, how can I look down on the girls in Qimengxuan."
Xiaoqing was curious, "If it weren't for those girls, why would you have set the store here." ”
Luo Wei explained: "Of course, it's to make money, although I'm not for girls, but there are too many men in this world who are willing to follow each other for girls." ”
"I just learned about it, Qimengxuan is in the place of fireworks tavern in Hangzhou City, which can be regarded as a signboard."
"The people who come here are either rich or expensive."
"If we want to make money, we naturally want to make money from this group of rich people."
"I opened a glass shop here, so I don't have to worry about the source of customers, because there are so many rich people here."
"Now, you understand why I opened my shop here."
After Luo Wei's explanation, Xiaoqing suddenly realized, snorted and said, "Count you through." ”
After taking over the shop, Luo Wei found a few good carpenters with the help of Zhou Ren, a tooth man, and first created a plaque of Liuli Pavilion.
Then let a few carpenters decorate the interior of the glazed pavilion.
First of all, knock out the obstructive and useless decoration, and make a wide space for people to walk left and right unscrupulously.
Then he built some elaborate booths to store the glass that Lowe had bought.
It took nearly half a month to toss this time.
Within half a month, Luo Wei handed over the decoration to Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, and he returned to the real world through the dimensional gate to buy some exquisite glass.
Of course, Luo Wei also bought some exquisite glass.
It's not anything valuable.
The prices are quite cheap, ranging from a few dozen to a few hundred.
In addition to this, Luo Wei also purchased some tempered glass and made some glass covers, which were specially used to hold the glassware and glass he bought.
One thing to say, the glass cover made of tempered glass is much more valuable than the contents inside.
But Luo Wei's purpose in doing this is very simple, that is, to create an impression to the people of the Southern Song Dynasty that my glass is very valuable.
If the thing is not valuable, it will not be protected with this glass cover that cannot even be broken by a sword.
In this way, there will naturally be a large ticket of injustice in order to buy the cheap glass inside the glass cover, and pay a high price.
Half a month later, everything is ready to end.
Luo Wei's Liuli Pavilion has officially opened its doors.
However, he did not engage in any bells and whistles opening ceremony, neither firecrackers nor lion dances at the door, but opened the door quite low-key.
It's as if a normal store is open on weekdays.
How low-key you want to be.
However, the plaque of Liuli Pavilion hangs in front of the door of the store, which still attracts the attention of many people.
After all, in ancient times, things like glass were basically associated with high-end and expensive.
In addition, next to Luowei's glazed pavilion is a lively fireworks place.
Therefore, on the opening day of Liuli Pavilion, it ushered in a wave of guests who were not bad for money.
Song Ming was one of those guests.
His family is engaged in the business of medicinal materials, and many pharmacies in Hangzhou City take goods from his home, in fact, not only in Hangzhou City, but even pharmacies in several nearby cities have to buy goods from his home.
Therefore, in Hangzhou City, Song Ming thought that his family was also a wealthy businessman in Hangzhou City.
Although it is not as good as those who sell tea, silk, and spices.
But compared to those ordinary businessmen, it is much stronger.
On this day, Song Ming made an appointment with a few friends, planning to go to Qimengxuan to drink and listen to music together and spend a pleasant night.
However, when a few people were about to walk to Qimengxuan, they suddenly heard a friend say: "Liuli Pavilion, hey, when did a Liuli Pavilion open next to this Qimengxuan." ”
Song Ming couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, looked up, and sure enough, he saw an extra glass pavilion next to Qi Mengxuan.
When did this open.
He was so impressed.
Song Ming recalled for a while, and then remembered that when he passed by this store a few days ago, the store was being renovated, and he was still very curious about what kind of store this store was
I didn't expect it to be a shop that sells glass, which is a bit fresh.
Glass is not rare, and expensive, if the average person obtains the glass, they will treat it as an heirloom.
Now someone is actually selling it, which makes him interested all of a sudden.
