Regarding Shen Lingxi's change of the medicinal herb shop into an auction house, although Shen Ziyan was not sure that this was right, from Shen Lingxi's description, she could also feel that this auction house was indeed more promising than the medicinal herb shop.

So he didn't say anything, he let Lingxi toss it himself, and handed over another grain store in Dongshi to Lingxi.

For Shen Ziyan, in fact, these two stores are not large-scale, they are ordinary small shops, and they are not doing well, and the income they can create every month is only a hundred taels. Let go and let the eight-year-old Shen Lingxi toss, even if they all go out of business and close the door, Shen Ziyan is not distressed, not to mention that Lingxi seems to be quite talented in everything, which makes Shen Ziyan both relieved and relieved.

The decoration of the auction house was carried out in an orderly manner under Shen Lingxi's planning, and Shen Lingxi invested five thousand taels in this decoration, but she was full of confidence when she thought that there was no competitor at all.

The decoration is not something that can be done in a while, so Shen Lingxi took the time to go to the grain store that he had just gotten in his hand to take a look.

Walking into the grain store stacked with more grains and rice noodles, Shen Lingxi saw a slightly chubby shopkeeper.

"You are the shopkeeper of Lin, I am Shen Lingxi, my mother has sent someone to tell you, right?"

Shen Lingxi reported her identity as soon as she came in, she already knew that this small store did not have any big profits, especially in the food industry, which was all fast-in and fast-out to make hard-earned money, so she didn't bother to check the accounts or anything like that, so she went straight to the point.

"It turned out to be Young Master Lingxi, and below is the shopkeeper Lin. Mrs. sent someone to say that everything in the shop will be up to the young master in the future. I heard that the young master has made our medicinal herb shop prosperous in a few days, so I am not waiting for you to come to the stars and the moon. ”

The chubby shopkeeper Lin smiled heavily, and when he came up, he slapped all the sycophants.

Shen Lingxi felt that this shopkeeper Lin was much smoother than Shopkeeper Qin, who opened a medicinal herb shop, but Lingxi was already an adult in his twenties at heart, and he would not get carried away at all because of a few compliments, but he did not have a very good impression of this shopkeeper Lin.

didn't give Shopkeeper Lin a good face, Shen Lingxi took care of himself in the store and looked at the amount of food, and only if he didn't understand did he turn around and ask.

Shopkeeper Lin looked at Young Master Lingxi with a serious face, although the other party was only eight years old, but that aura made him dare not despise it, besides, I heard that Young Master Lingxi was very talented in business, which made Shopkeeper Lin walk on thin ice and answer every sentence carefully.

After shopping for a while, Shen Lingxi casually picked up the account book and looked at the total amount of grain, and made a decision.

"Shopkeeper Lin, now you can close the door. All the grain here is stored, and from today onwards, there will be no grain for sale here. Wait a minute, I'll send someone to check the ledger and inventory. If it proves that you can use it, then keep you, so be it!"

Shen Lingxi only glanced at the account book a few times, and made a basic judgment on the value of this grain store. For this slick shopkeeper Lin, Shen Lingxi decided to knock and knock, if it proves that loyalty is okay, then continue to keep it, otherwise it will be replaced.

Unlike that medicinal herb shop, Shen Lingxi didn't plan to dispose of these stored grains, and if there was no natural disaster or something, the grain trading was actually not very profitable.

Looking at the piles of grain, Shen Lingxi thought that he could actually use grain to make wine. Moreover, in Shen Lingxi's image, whether it is a restaurant or a dining table in Shen's mansion, those wines with good names don't seem to have a high degree.

Since there has been no high-grade liquor yet, Shen Lingxi plans to change this grain store into a high-grade liquor store.

In addition, the grain is ready-made, and some brewers can start work, as for the steps of distilling high-grade liquor, Shen Lingxi plans to build a workshop in the manor controlled by the cheap girl, and let the second house of the Shen family sign the house slave who has a deed of sale to distill.

This kind of core technology, Shen Lingxi intends to control it in his hands for as long as he wants.

Shen Lingxi instructed Shopkeeper Lin to close the door, and then planned to leave to prepare for winemaking.

When the shopkeeper heard that Young Master Lingxi directly asked him to close the door, he thought that his job had been smashed, so he was so frightened that he sat on the ground, and there were tears on his chubby face.

Lingxi sent a steward of the outer courtyard of the Shen Mansion to check the accounts and take inventory, and after the numbers were matched, the steward told the shopkeeper Lin that he could continue to keep it.

Shopkeeper Lin put his heart in his stomach at this time, and felt that the whole person was alive again, and let out a long breath.

In the following days, Shen Lingxi was busy supervising the decoration of the auction house, and invited some winemakers to make wine in the manor workshop.

After doing so many things, Shen Lingxi discovered that in this era, some ordinary people who don't have much cultivation talent are actually not having a good time.

Take Runan City as an example, from the shops in the city to the land on the outskirts of the city, it is basically divided up by the three major cultivators.

Many of the industries here are either from the Li family, the Zhang family, or the Shen family.

Even the officials of Runan County from top to bottom have more or less something to do with these three families, especially the military and political chiefs of Runan, and some of them are simply the children of monks of the three families.

Most of the ordinary people choose to rely on these three families, or work in the business of these families, or work as tenants for the estates of the three families, and some desperate families will choose to sell themselves or their children to the three families as domestic slaves.

Of course, there will be a small number of middle-class families with their own industries, but these families either have business dealings with the three major families, or have a twisting relationship with the three major families, in short, the influence of the three families in the sphere of influence of Runan County is huge.

Shen Lingxi just didn't understand the weight of the Shen family in the hearts of these shopkeepers, so he thought that the store's business was not good, and it might be that the shopkeeper was full of private pockets. In fact, it's not that these shopkeepers can't do something, it's just that the gains outweigh the losses.

You must know that in Runan County, all the people who are dependent on the Lord's family will find it difficult to stay in Runan once something happens that betrays the Lord. The other two families will not want this kind of betrayal of the main family, and it is difficult to say whether they will be able to get out of Runan County alive when the time comes.

If Shen Lingxi really didn't keep the grain store, I am afraid that the Lin shopkeeper and his family would have to move to other counties, and they would also be reduced from a decent shopkeeper to a homeless, so Shen Lingxi's decision to close the grain store really almost scared the Lin shopkeeper to death.

It is also because Shen Lingxi is the second sister-in-law of the Shen family, and the toss in the East Market will be so smooth. Otherwise, if other people make such a big move, they would have been arrested by the officials a long time ago, let alone an auction house. There is no background in doing business in Runan, and once you are targeted by the people of the three major families, it is definitely the result of bankruptcy.
