Chapter 304 Buying a Shop (Update [-])
Mrs. Cui and Cui Qingci followed Jiang Zhiluo in doing business and learned some business skills.

Of course, the two of them were also in charge of the middle feed and managed the store in the past, so they naturally knew something about it.

So since they decided to buy a store and open a store, the two of them took action.

Cui Qingci said: "Mom, let's do more things and open the shop. It will be much easier for my sister-in-law to come back in the future."

"That's right, we can't let her work so hard."

"The weather will get colder and colder in the future. I hope my sister-in-law can come back soon."

"Zhi Luo said that she will come back after finishing her work."

"I don't know where my eldest brother has gone, there is no news."

"You don't have to worry about your elder brother. You know his abilities. Wherever he can go, he will definitely go to your sister-in-law."

"Too!"

The two talked and had lunch, and then went to the town to find someone from the dental shop to look at the shop that afternoon.

When a thin young boy heard that they wanted to see the store, he happily took them to see it.

After looking at a few shops, they went to the shop on the pier.

"Madam, little lady, this is the best store in the area. The front store is spacious, there is a backyard room and a well."

“This price is very expensive!”

They want to buy from a better store, but they also have to look at the price.

The young man's surname was Shi. Shi Shan said with a smile: "It's not expensive, it's much cheaper to buy a shop or a house now."

"In the past, a big shop like this here cost 150 taels of silver, but now it costs more than 90 taels."

Upon hearing the price, Mrs. Cui and Cui Qingci were both surprised.

I thought that such a store was very expensive, but I never thought that I could buy it for more than 90 taels of silver.

The two of them were very excited. If this were in the capital, a shop in such a location would cost at least more than 1000 taels of silver.

It's good if the price is cheap.

Of course, maybe because there were bandits and wars here in Beihe Town, many people fled, and some shops and houses here were also sold.

Not many people are buying it, so it's cheap.

Nowadays, many people don’t know what’s going on outside and don’t know where to hide.

Mrs. Cui and the others knew that nothing happened, so they all returned to the village to continue their lives.

People in Donghe Village and Xingshan Village have also returned to their villages to live a normal life.

People in Donghe Village are very busy, busy making brown sugar.

They took advantage of this time to make a lot of brown sugar.

Therefore, every household in Donghe Village has smoke rising from the kitchens since morning.

Of course, everyone kept Jiang Zhiluo’s words in mind and stored all the brown sugar after making it, and would not sell it privately.

Cui Qingci and Mrs. Cui both know that this shop says it costs more than 90 taels of silver, but in fact the price can be even lower if you negotiate.

Cui Qingci said: "Brother, if you give me a cheap price, if it's cheap, we will buy the store and pay you a lot of money as an intermediary fee."

Many people buy houses, shops, etc., and they also reduce the fees paid to middlemen.

"And if we buy a store again in the future, we will ask you to buy a store."

After Cui Qingci persisted in bargaining, the price was finally settled at 85 taels of silver.

After that it was time to go to the Yamen for business.

Now the county magistrate has been replaced by magistrate Jian again.

When the Cui family does things, the Yamen will naturally provide convenience.

Because of the war, the court did not know what to think and dismissed Magistrate Jian from his post.

Therefore, there were some things that County Magistrate Jian couldn't decide or control before.

But now His Highness Taisun controls half of the country, and Taisun also has the final say here in Beizhou.

Naturally, Jian County Magistrate's position was restored.So now this place is still managed by Magistrate Jian.

Everything is in order.

The previous commander of the guard station was killed and replaced by Taisun's people.

Therefore, if someone makes trouble in the county, the county magistrate can naturally ask the commander to send troops to suppress it.

So now Beihe Town is peaceful.

It's just that compared to the lively scenes before, it's relatively deserted.

But everyone understands that the desertion is temporary. When everyone knows that Taisun is in charge of their side, there will be no more wars, and there will be no more bandits, everyone will come back.

People hiding at home will also be willing to go out.

The young boy hadn't sold a house or shop in several months, and he was anxious.

The owner has said that if he doesn't sell one set, he will no longer be able to work here.

The young man was also anxious to sell the house.

That’s why I settled on 85 taels of silver.

After finishing the work, Mrs. Cui and Cui Qingci took the young boy to eat a bowl of noodles.

The young boy declined at first, but they paid him the dues and treated him to a meal anyway.

After all, the young man also saved them a lot of money.

Furthermore, they all think the location and environment of the store are very good.

After eating the noodles, Mrs. Cui and Cui Qingci took the red deed and the key that had been processed at the Yamen and went to the store again to take a look.

They want to see how to decorate it.

"Mom, this way the store can also sell brown sugar."

"Yes, you can build a special shelf to sell brown sugar."

"Zhi Luo has mentioned before that if you open a store, you will put up shelves one by one, and put different things on each shelf, with labels on them. If someone is illiterate, the people in the store can explain it..."

In the past, when Jiang Zhiluo was making balm and other things in the mountains, she would tell Mrs. Cui and Cui Qingci some theoretical ideas about business operations.

When Cui Qingci didn't understand something, she would ask Jiang Zhiluo, and Jiang Zhiluo would explain it carefully and in detail.

Explain some marketing and business strategies.

So Mrs. Cui and Cui Qingci now also know how to run a store.

Mrs. Cui nodded and said: "Indeed, I will ask you to take measurements later to build the shelves."

"Go back to the village and collect the brown sugar made by the villagers. Then we can sell it in the shop."

Mrs. Cui and Cui Qingci also knew that the people in the village were very diligent during this period. In order to make more brown sugar, the whole family started to work hard.

The children will help to light the fire and cook the brown sugar.

However, Mrs. Cui and Cui Qingci also found that the condition of the villagers had become very good.

Everyone's eyes are filled with hope.

Cui Qingci said: "Everyone just wants to make more brown sugar, make some money, and buy more new year's goods during the Chinese New Year."

It was only after arriving in the village and sometimes chatting with the villagers that Cui Qingci realized that everyone's thoughts were so simple and simple.

Because of this, Cui Qingci felt very relaxed after a long time.

Mrs. Cui sighed with emotion: "No, people in the village are busy all year round. They live frugally just to have a good New Year. The children are looking forward to eating delicious food and wearing new clothes during the New Year."

But the simplest idea is not that easy.

"When I get back, I'll write to Zhiluo as soon as possible, tell her about the situation in our village, and ask her if brown sugar can also be sold in the store?"

Cui Qingci was silent for a while and said, "Do you want to tell your sister-in-law about your eldest brother's situation?"

She is actually worried about her eldest brother.

Mrs. Cui said: "Of course I have to say, if we hide something from her, Zhiluo will definitely not be happy."
