"This dish is too expensive!"

After someone asked about the price, they couldn't help but be a little staggered. The winter is almost the New Year, and the prices of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea in the market have risen, and the pork in the meat stall has also risen to 20 yuan a catty.

I didn't expect these dishes to be more expensive than meat!

But if Xu Ling really made the price of these vegetables cheaper than meat, how could he have so many vegetables to supply?

To do business is to have the appearance of doing business.

Most people look at the price and stay away, and some people feel that there is a discount at the moment, and they can get something for 100 yuan for 300 yuan, and it doesn't cost much to buy a few taels and a pound of vegetables, and they can grit their teeth and buy some.

In the vegetable area, the lotus root sells the best, and the lotus root that Xu Ling transported from Lotus Bay is cleaned of the mud outside, placed neatly, and most importantly, the price is low.

Compared with out-of-season vegetables, lotus roots that cost eight cents a pound are really approachable.

However, the lotus root is weighed, and there are not many catties of lotus root, and it is estimated that two catties of lotus root are not enough to eat in a crowded home.

Not only the vegetable area, but also the porcelain that Xu Ling transported from Lingbao Town on the second floor, which was also robbed because the price was cheaper than elsewhere. The wholesale price of porcelain bowls is three yuan, and he shipped it to sell it for seven yuan, and it is almost the New Year, and it is normal for the family to buy some bowls and pots.

Xu Ling asked elsewhere, and many people's porcelain was sold at a higher price than him, and a bowl was at least a penny more expensive.

Although the wholesale price of porcelain is cheap, because of transportation problems, it is difficult to transport by land and water, and it is normal for the price to double due to the high discount rate.

Xu Ling has space in his hands, and he doesn't have to worry about other people's problems. Even if it is cheaper than others, the profit is doubled.

In addition to these more things, Xu Ling also set aside a special space to place those "leakage areas" that are not too large and relatively messy.

Find a guy to shout on the side, "No inventory sale, the lowest goods in this area are only three cents!" It's sold out and gone! ”

These ordinary people, who have not experienced 365 days of annual clearance and bombing, heard "Sanwen" and "sold out", and they went completely crazy.

As soon as there were many people, the store seemed very crowded, but fortunately, Xu Ling had already predicted this situation, so Lu Chun invited seven or eight short-term workers to watch it, trying to avoid thieves from getting in.

Xu Ling was also busy, moving things and replenishing the goods, and by noon, there were fewer people in the shop.

Xu Ling was finally able to take stock of today's results.

The 300 catties of lotus roots released in the vegetable area were all sold out, and the out-of-season vegetables were sold sporadically, and they were even sold out.

A lot of cheap porcelain upstairs was also sold, and there was not even a pair of straw sandals left in the sale area.

Hey, what do you do with straw sandals in the big winter?

Xu Ling didn't know either, but he wanted to grab the head, and he couldn't grab anything to grab a pair of straw sandals.

The guys cleaned up the shop, and Xu Ling and Lu Chun went to the back room to settle accounts.

"Eight hundred and thirty-one pieces of porcelain were sold, three hundred and ninety-three porcelain bowls, and one hundred and seventy-eight pieces of porcelain plates......"

Lu Chun played abacus and recorded it in the ledger. Xu Ling squatted next to a wooden box full of copper coins and counted the coins with a funnel.

The legs of the number were numb, so I went outside to find a horse to come in, and sat down and continued to count.

In the end, the two finished the accounts, and most of the day passed today, not counting the two people who continued to make profits when they were counting the money, with a total income of 47 taels of silver.

After Lu Chun finished talking about the accounts, he was silent.

Xu Ling walked around the house, thinking in his heart that it was indeed feasible to open a shop, but it was a little troublesome for him.

Today, after deducting the capital, Xu Ling earned at least thirty taels of silver.

Subtracting rent, labor, and accidental wear and tear, and counting the large wave of traffic attracted by the promotion of the just opened event, after careful calculation, after the normal operation of the shop, it can make a profit of at least 100 taels of silver a month, right?

It's just that behind the support for the operation of the shop, there is only Xu Ling alone.

He wants to grow vegetables and toss back and forth between Lingbao Town and Xuzhou.

Xu Ling sighed, "When will I be able to live a life of lying at home and counting money without leaving home!" ”

Lu Chunxin said, the new owner is really greedy.

He earns so much in one day, and he can marry two or three concubines just by relying on this shop in a year, which is not satisfied.

In the second half of the day, Xu Ling asked the guy to close the shop, continue to replenish the stock, and open the door again tomorrow.

In the evening, Xu Ling invited Lu Chun and the staff in the store to go to the restaurant to eat, and a group of ten people asked for five or six hot dishes, a large bamboo basket of steamed buns, and they were satisfied.

However, this is because the new store is too busy to open, so he is looking for some people who work part-time, and when the store is running normally, Xu Ling plans to recruit only three guys.

In this way, there is a shopkeeper in the store, three guys, and there must be no problem in keeping the store running.

The monthly silver of these guys is not as good as the shopkeeper, and they do rough work, one or two silver per person a month according to the market, and they give some red envelopes at the end of the year as usual, which is considered the love of the owner.

The store includes food and accommodation, several rooms in the back yard, and a kitchen, Xu Ling plans to find a guy who can cook to take care of the cooking at that time, and give more silver every month.

If you can't find anyone, find more mother-in-law to work, the store is full of people, for fear of causing trouble.

At the dinner table, Xu Ling drew flatbread for them like the boss in his previous life, and the host and guests enjoyed themselves after the meal.

Full of wine and food, Xu Ling also returned to the backyard of the grocery store, he now finally has a place to settle in Quanzhou, and he will not have to stay in the guest house in the future.

The newly changed mattress still smelled unfamiliar, Xu Ling collapsed on the bed, he had been out for half a month, how many days were there for the New Year?

"Thirteen, fourteen...... There are fifteen days left until the New Year. ”

He originally wanted not to go out in winter, but who knew that he had been pushed forward by others. However, before going out this time, he accepted fifty taels from Yang Tao's master and apprentice, which can be regarded as helping him to raise enough start-up capital.

After hoarding a large number of porcelain, Xu Ling's money was not enough to open a shop again, but fortunately, with the fifty taels, he directly took down the shop and the shopkeeper.

However, if he wants to return the funds as soon as possible, it is still too early to go back to give Yang Tao and the others money, Xu Ling plans to go again, but this time he does not go to Lingbao Town, but wants to go further south to have a look.

To the south of Quanzhou, Xu Ling also had to go to the coastal place, take a sea boat, and then detour to Yazhou, he asked someone to inquire, from Quanzhou to Yazhou, it can be reached in less than four days, it is closer than Lingbao Town.

Xu Ling handed over the pass certificate of the dock warehouse to Lu Chun, and there was nothing in the shop, so he went to get it himself.

When Lu Chun learned that Xu Ling was going to Yazhou, he suddenly realized, I heard that Yazhou is like spring all year round, and those out-of-season vegetables that want to come to the owner are transported from Yazhou, right?

Xu Ling didn't explain much, saying that he would leave and go to the seaside wharf to find a merchant ship that could take him to Yazhou.

"Quanzhou is densely populated and the valley is barren, although there is no land to cultivate."

Those Quanzhou people who can't eat enough by farming spontaneously start business, go south to north, and Xuzhou south is close to the sea, and countless ships are built from the shipyard every year, and they go to overseas foreign countries in the dream of making a fortune in profit-seeking businessmen.

The port of Quanzhou is even more lively than the inner harbor!
