Traveling Through Ancient Times To Be a Shopkeeper

On the second day after Baizhenlou opened, the snow stopped.

On the first day, there was only one young man from a rich family patronizing, and no one came to the door again in the afternoon.

When the snow stopped, there were more pedestrians on the street.

The wonderful flower of Baizhenlou opened, and a customer visited on the first day.

The next day, Xueting finally walked out of the house. People who passed by Baizhenlou wondered when a shop opened.

People who are curious about Baizhen Tower go in and take a look, and they are all surprised.

Those who can walk on the bustling streets of the inner city will be short of money in their pockets.

Generally, a family can have two or three taels of silver in a purse, and a wealthy family can have hundreds of taels, not to mention those rich and powerful families, noble girls and noble sons who come and go in carriages, followed by servants, not to mention money.

"This candy is so beautiful, and I have to try it. It is fruity and delicious."

"Mine is floral fragrance, I like to eat it, this jar costs one tael of silver, I bought it."

"I buy toffee, and toffee is more expensive."

"You don't keep any money to buy soap?"

"...to stay."

If you can't afford hundreds of taels of glass lamps, then buy candy soap and candles. And those who can buy more than a hundred taels are all young masters from wealthy families.

"I want three of those glass lamps. Parents, grandparents, and the others... want ten. Give me a box of candy and preserved fruit. Buy a jar and eat it up in a day, and pack the rest according to the quantity." .”

"Yes, young master, the things will be packed soon, and there is a VIP card inside, please go."

After sending off the noble son, a few rich ladies came.

"Dude, do you have any good recommendations for Baizhenlou, please introduce it to Miss Ben."

Wang Yumin took a few sisters out for a stroll, and saw that Baizhen Building was a new store, and there were many people shopping in it, so she walked in with her sisters. Once in, she saw a wide variety of things in Baizhen Building, all of which were novelties. thing.

The transparent packages on the shelves, crystal candies, and exquisite things all attracted Wang Yumin and the others' attention.

The clerk introduced them to Wang Yumin and the others, and gave them a try of candy preserved fruit and flower fruit tea. Wang Yumin had eaten pastries before, and before she had any doubts about the origin of the pastries at Baizhenlou, the clerk told them that the pastries were sold in the same shop as Xianmanju. Several types of pastries can only be bought by the nobles of the county who make reservations at Xianmanju.

Wang Yumin and the others are all ladies from merchants' families, and the nobles are rich and powerful, so they are not tempted. They bought a lot of them immediately, but they are not interested in dried seafood. The isinglass is so good, and I don't know if it is true. I didn't buy it.

Wang Yumin and the others sold out other products, and they wanted glass lamps when they saw them, but the minimum cost was more than one hundred taels. They had money in their hands and bought a lot at Baizhen Building. I don't have money to buy nice clothes

But I was reluctant, the glass lamp must be beautiful in the room.

Clerk: "Miss, the glass lamps are definitely in line with your identity. Many noble people have bought glass lamps in the store, and these are the only ones on the shelf. If you don't buy them, they will be out of stock."

If you buy several lamps, it costs thousands of taels at a time. The lamps are expensive, but they cannot be sold so quickly because they are so rare.

The glass lamps are placed beautifully and extravagantly, and the lighting is not afraid of wind or fire.

Wang Yumin wanted to buy it, but she wanted to buy a new Luo skirt and dress up beautifully to go to Wei's house. She only had three hundred taels of pocket money left in her pocket this month, "This..."

"Shopkeeper, I want all the lamps on the shelf."

A clear voice came, and Wang Yumin turned around angrily, wanting to see who would dare to buy all the glass lamps before her, but she didn't even say no.

Wang Yumin turned around, and Min Yueting and Wen Lanzhi just walked in front of her. Min Yueting said bluntly: "Miss Wang, you are in the way. If you can't afford it, you are really no tutor."

"You..." Wang Yumin pointed her finger at Min Yueting angrily. She didn't dare to offend Min Yueting. The Min family is one of the big families in Nanshan County. Her family is just a family of merchants. Compared with the Min family, Yun Mud farewell.

Wang Yumin looked at Wen Lanzhi next to Min Yueting, and left with the sisters in shame and indignation.

Wang Yumin will not give up, and dare not offend Min Yueting, Wen Lanzhi is not in the range, when she marries into the Wei residence next year, she will be attractive.

Min Yueting watched the people leave, and said to her friend: "Lan Zhi, isn't it just a daughter of a merchant family? I don't know if your mother-in-law wants to put someone in your room, or the woman just now, what's good about that woman's whole body, why does your mother-in-law like this kind of person. "

Wen Lanzhi said softly: "Okay, it's you who said you would take me out to relax. Why are you still angry? I don't know why. Some things can't be stopped even if I want to." She said she didn't care, but her heart was bitter.

Min Yueting said angrily: "Why can't it be stopped! If Wei Jihui wasn't in the academy, I would have gone to him to vent your anger on you. Back then, he begged you to marry you so affectionately, but you were so ungrateful and wanted to take a concubine before you were admitted to Juren. Just you If you have a good temper, don’t say anything, I’ll let you tell your uncle and aunt that uncle will disqualify him from taking the examination next year, and if Wei Jihui can’t pass the examination, your mother-in-law dares to manipulate you arrogantly.”

Wen Lanzhi smiled bitterly, if she really did that, she would become a sinner, and she would have no place in the Wei family, "Yue Ting, you haven't married yet, and after you get married, you will know that many things are not as simple as you think. "I can't help myself.

Another marriage.

Min Yueting is very upset!

"Okay, I won't talk about it, there are so many novelties in this store, the shopkeeper—"

"My lord, please tell me—"

"Remember to wrap up the lamps, what other good things—"

"My lord, please come to the private room, I'll let someone introduce you one by one."

"lead the way!"

When Min Yueting and Wen Lanzhi left, they bought a lot of things, and the shopkeeper gave each of them a VIP card.

In just one morning, all the VIP cards were sent out.

In the afternoon, many products were directly sold out.

Yun Chengfeng has been making people pay attention to the situation of Baizhen Building. After listening to the report, he: "..."

Guan Shi said: "Boss Wei really has the ability to do business."

Yun Chengfeng remembered the words that hurt him in Weicheng at Baizhen Building: "...Your young master is not capable, all these books are my business, young master."

"...Master, what you said is true." Steward Quan said respectfully.

Yun Chengfeng looked at the account book, the business in the account book was obtained through Wei Cheng, and he was choked again.

"..." Yun Chengfeng said, "You can go to Weicheng to buy the New Year's ceremony, and I will go back to the imperial city before the year."

"Yes." The whole steward withdrew.

Looking at the bustling streets, Yun Chengfeng planned to come out for two years, and after one year his elder brother would let him go back to the imperial city, so that he could finally go back to see his family, Yi Han.

Baizhen Building was sparsely populated from the beginning, and within a few days word spread in the inner city, and the business of the shop was busy.

Later, the products sold will start to be limited and can be pre-ordered.

The supply of goods is still lacking. Considering the annual gift reservation, we choose to sell in limited quantities.

Candies, preserved fruits, soaps, candles, jams, flower fruit teas are on the shelves of Weiji grocery store. These new products are divided into grades, mainly for merchants and shopkeepers who buy goods. There are restrictions and a certain amount of goods can be purchased. goods.

Of course, the shopkeepers recorded by Wei do not have this restriction.

The peddlers who bought the goods saw that the peddlers recorded by Wei made more money than them. Sometimes the monthly silver could be as high as ten or twenty taels.

Wei Ji can also give the list of merchants for the peddlers to negotiate, and they will not be kicked out. If the business is negotiated, the monthly money will be considerable.

They were so envious that they simply became Wei Jixia's shopkeepers.

A mansion in the inner city.

The third aunt of the Ren family handed a jar of candy to her brother, "Nian'er, this is a gift from my wife. It is said to be the most famous snack in the inner city. You love sweets, so my aunt left it for you."

Brother has a pair of big round eyes, he is a clean and well-behaved boy, Ren Nianluo said: "Auntie, don't you want to try it?" The candy looks delicious.

Third Yiniang smiled and said: "Auntie is not you, how can you like this kind of sweets?"

Ren Nianluo stuffed a candy into his aunt's mouth, "Let's eat together." Then he stuffed another candy into his mouth.

Hmm, it smells so sweet and floral, Ren Nianluo narrowed his eyes, satisfied after eating.

San Yiniang didn't expect that the candy looked beautiful and tasted even better. However, seeing her brother happy made her feel even sweeter.

A few days ago, her brother was wronged, she was the aunt of the Ren family, and she was not favored, even if her brother was wronged, she could not seek justice for him, she felt sad, seeing her brother was depressed, she could only feel anxious.

The third aunt asked tentatively: "Nian'er, about the Zeng family...you..."

Ren Nianluo smiled and said: "Auntie, don't worry about me. I'm fine. The marriage with the Zeng family is originally decided by the mother. I have never met the young master of the Zeng family. Now it's all right. The marriage is for the fifth younger sister, and I can still stay at home." Auntie does not need to marry."

Third Aunt frowned: "But weren't you very sad a few days ago?"

Ren Nianluo pursed her lips: "...I feel sad because I feel wronged."

The wronged family kept it from him, the wronged fifth younger sister was obviously on good terms with him, she stole the marriage and still got along with him as if nothing happened, he didn't know the truth until half a month before the fifth younger sister got married.

They can tell him in advance that he won't care, and that his grievance is their deception.

Third Yiniang sighed, it was all because of her lack of status in the Ren Mansion that her child was wronged.

—

Ren Nianluo liked to eat candies, so he sneaked out of the house to buy them.

"No more toffee?!"

Ren Nianluo brought silver taels to buy, and was disappointed when the shopkeeper said that they were out of stock.

The toffee is still eaten by the sixth younger sister. The sixth younger sister is the mother's daughter and is a direct descendant, so she can eat toffee.

Man: "I'm really sorry, today's quantity is sold out early, if you want to buy, please come tomorrow morning."

Ren Nianluo asked: "Then, what about flower fruit candy? Is there any?"

Guy: "I'm so sorry."

"What about the others?" Ren Nianluo said in a low voice.

"To tell you the truth, candies and preserved fruits are sold in limited quantities every day. There are too many repeat customers and new customers these days, and they all like to eat." The waiter said, "And osmanthus cake, do you want it?"

Ren Nianluo's eyes lit up, but seeing the price of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, several taels per box, his round eyes dimmed, he, he had no money.

Wei Lei came out of the private room. He came to inspect and happened to see Ren Nianluo.

It's him.......

He asked the shopkeeper next to him to ask what happened, and the shopkeeper went to ask the buddy in a low voice, got the reason, and reported it quickly.

Wei Lei pondered for a moment and said: "There are still toffee and fruit candy in the warehouse, take out the candies and sell them to that brother."

"Yes, I'll do it right away." The warehouse is all tomorrow's quantity, and the shopkeeper orders it, and the shopkeeper is responsible for it.

Ren Nianluo was about to lose his mind and leave when the clerk asked him to wait for a while, saying that the boss agreed to sell him one or two cans from tomorrow's shipment, the clerk said: "You know our boss Lei, why didn't you tell me earlier, little brother?" It’s not good to be negligent.”

Ren Nianluo was stunned, "I, I don't know your boss..."

"How is it possible." The man pointed to the tall man standing in the lobby, and he said, "That is our chief, Mr. Lei, you really don't know him?"

Ren Nianluo looked over in a daze. Wei Lei originally waited for people to leave before leaving. He kept looking at the counter in the lobby. He didn't expect his brother to look directly at him. up.

Ren Nianluo blinked, he didn't know this tall and expressionless person!

Seeing that Ren Nianluo had been looking at him, Wei Lei thought that Ren Nianluo recognized him, so he walked over directly, "...I'm really sorry about what happened last time."

Last time? Ren Nianluo was puzzled, did this person admit to the wrong person?

The shopkeeper brought two cans of sugar from the warehouse in the backyard, and Wei Lei directly ordered, "Wrap the two cans of sugar, and add two boxes of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes to wrap together." He took out a card from his pocket and handed it over, "This is the VIP card , if you still want to buy candy in the future, use this card to buy it, if there is no stock on the shelf, the warehouse will sell it to you if there is stock."

Ren Nianluo took it blankly, feeling dizzy...

Wei Lei took the stuff wrapped by the guy and handed it over, "The candies and pastries are my apology to you, I hope you can accept it."

Ren Nianluo finally came to his senses, he couldn't ask: "I, are you admitting the wrong person?"

Wei Lei looked at Ren Nianluo's expression for a while, then frowned and asked, "Have you forgotten what happened on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"what!?"

Wei Lei: "I accidentally touched your lantern, and you ran away in anger."

"Ah!" Ren Nianluo finally understood, "You are that person that night!"

He didn't forget, how could he forget, that night he was in a low mood and was wandering alone with a lantern, and when someone knocked his lantern to the ground, he felt wronged at that time, and he was even more wronged when the lantern was destroyed, and the tears in his eyes were wronged It overflowed, he didn't want outsiders to see it, so he ran away.

Forget about it afterwards.

"I wasn't angry about what happened that day, I just... I don't need to make an apology anyway, I can't accept things." A lantern is only more than a hundred coins, how can he accept such an expensive apology, "This card is good as an apology Yes, I will buy candy with money."

"Okay!" Wei Lei stuffed things into Ren Nianluo's arms, "Just give me a tael of silver!"

"what!?"

Ren Nianluo was stunned for a moment, and Wei Lei left. He wanted to return the things, but the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper would not dare to accept them, so they had to persuade him to accept them. I went home with my stuff.

Third Auntie saw her brother come back with a lot of things, she knew how much pocket money he had, she couldn't buy these things, "Nian'er, where did you get these?"

Ren Nianluo would not hide the matter from his aunt, and then looked at his aunt eagerly after speaking, he was afraid that it would be bad to take other people's things like this.

How could San Yiniang not know the meaning of her brother's small expression, her brother was cute and well-behaved, every time he did something wrong or was afraid of doing something wrong, he just looked at people like this and waited to be reprimanded.

Third Yiniang smiled and said, "Since it's an apology, why can't I accept it?"

"En." Ren Nianluo smiled.

"I heard that this sweet-scented osmanthus cake is delicious but hard to buy. I'm lucky enough to have it at last." The aunt ordered the maid to make tea, and said with a smile, "Today, our mother and son will taste this sweet-scented osmanthus cake in the yard."

Ren Nianluo said happily: "Auntie, I'll go to the house to find some dishes to pack."

The third aunt looked at her brother's lively figure, she shook her head in a funny way, how childish!

She looked away and sat down, thinking far away: She hoped that her brother would always be happy, not like she was trapped in the backyard all her life.

She originally disagreed with the Zeng family's marriage, but now it's okay.

However, she began to worry about her brother's marriage again!

Suburban Weiji grocery store.

Zhou Yuan looked at the account books of Baizhen Building and was very happy: "Husband, the business of Baizhen Building is good."

Wei Cheng said: "Don't worry now!"

"Don't worry." There is no need to worry that Baizhen Building is out of business. Looking at the account book, Zhou Yuan saw the sales volume of fish maw, and asked doubtfully, "Why are so few people buying fish maw? Isinglass is so good, isn't it too expensive?" purchase?"

He eats isinglass every now and then, and his complexion is better than before.

Wei Cheng smiled: "It's not that the price is expensive. Isinglass has just been released for sale. If you don't understand it for a while, few people will buy it. They are not people in the imperial city. How can everyone know the goods. It's not easy to sell now. Wait for those who have bought it to eat." Once you see the effect, it’s easy to sell.”

Zhou Yuan thought, it makes sense, so don't worry about it!

The Lin Family Flower Banquet.

Many noble ladies and noble daughters gathered together to enjoy the flowers.

"Mrs. Lin, your complexion is so rosy, what kind of skin care lotion do you use?"

Mrs. Lin smiled and said: "Didn't my son buy a lot of things in Baizhen Building a few days ago to honor me? I accept my son's heart. There are two boxes of fish gelatin inside. I have only eaten for half a month. The complexion is getting better every day, and I ordered a few boxes back."

Isn't Baizhenlou a very famous shop recently?

The families of the noble ladies and daughters present all went to Baizhen Building to buy things, and the things inside were of the highest quality, and they didn't even notice that there was such a good thing as isinglass.

They all made up their minds to buy it after the feast is over!
