I farmed and built a villa in ancient times

Chapter 269

After Zhou Chenyu obtained everyone's consent, he was finally able to let go and make plans with Chen Ping'an to open a rouge shop.

Because business is the busiest at the end of the year, all major shops, regardless of whether they are operating well or not, are rushing for this opportunity to make a fortune. Therefore, many empty shops will be released after the New Year, and the rent is the lowest at that time.

But as the New Year approaches, the business at Rouge stalls also becomes more prosperous. In addition, on the 27th of the New Year, Chen Ping'an will follow his fellow villagers who work hard in Qingshui Town back to the countryside all the way to celebrate the New Year, so there is not much time left for them to conduct research. .

She and Chen Ping'an took advantage of this period of time before lunch to visit the large and small rouge shops in Qingshui Town. From the location and rent of the store, the price positioning of rouge, and the placement of shelves, Even the packaging of the product and other details were inspected.

During this period, Zhou Chenyu went out to work during the day. After eating and taking a shower at night, he lay down on the bed. The next day came as soon as he closed his eyes. He was as busy as a donkey and could not breathe for a moment. , but it’s both painful and happy.

In the early morning of New Year's 27, they had visited all the shops of their colleagues in Qingshui Town, and made an appointment at a teahouse to think about the location of the shop.

"Oh, it's so lively outside. It's not like the two of us. We've been working so hard that we can finally take a breather."

Chen Ping'an looked at the people buying New Year's goods outside, "Yeah, don't look at me here, in fact, my heart has flown home long ago. I'm just waiting to book the location of the store and set off home immediately. Go during the Chinese New Year and meet my parents whom I haven’t seen for a long time.”

Zhou Chenyu originally thought that living in Zhoujia Village and walking into the city every day was pitiful enough. Compared with people like Chen Pingan who lived in remote countryside, she was much happier.

She smiled and said, "I heard what you said. It takes two days and one night to go home. It's really time-consuming. When you make money someday, you might as well buy a house here and take your parents in with you. Come here, wouldn’t that give you the best of both worlds?”

Chen Pingan looked at her and smiled sheepishly, "Chen Yu, to tell you the truth, I have exactly what I want. I just don't have enough money in my pocket now, so I have to work hard to earn some."

"Then I wish you success as soon as possible." Zhou Chenyu narrowed his eyes and quickly took out the information he had copied in the past few days, "Ping An, you see, the information we found among these colleagues is that the monthly rent is between four and two taels. Between six and a half.”

Chen Ping'an touched his face and said seriously, "Chen Yu, if we rent a shop at this price, compared with our revenue this month, it is within the normal range."

Zhou Chenyu nodded, "Yes, as long as the shop is within this range, we can accept it."

"In this way, the shops we can consider are in the original Taohua Pavilion area, the area facing the street, and the Jixiang Building area. I think they are all good."

Chen Pingan drew a few circles on the table with tea, "Look, there are many rouge shops in the Taohua Pavilion area, which naturally attracts more people. The street is comparable to them. Not to mention the area near Jixiang Tower, which is Qingshui It is the most prosperous area of ​​the town, and there are few rouge shops. If we can open a rouge shop there, it will be no problem. Besides, isn't there someone there who has promised to rent the shop to us at a low price? Aren't we saving a lot of money? Got the money?”

Jixianglou area?
Zhou Chenyu rolled his eyes and bit his hand, "No, if the shop there is really that good, why would he say that? Free pies will not fall from the sky. And there is a lot of traffic near Jixiang Building. But that area is the default place to eat. Those people either bring their families with them, or they are a group of men. There are rarely groups of women there. Even if there are, they will not show up easily and finish eating. He left in a hurry."

"As a girl, when I go out to buy rouge and gouache, I naturally want to take my time and wander around one house after another. Shopping is important, but happiness is more important. The area around Taohua Pavilion is full of rouge shops, and I go to my daughter's house a lot, so naturally It’s more comfortable there. What do you think?”

Chen Pingan nodded attentively, "That seems to be the case. But I'm worried that once our shop opens, the rent will be equally divided into the rouge sold, and the price will rise accordingly. Compared with those peers, we have no advantage. That's enough. If it were sold elsewhere, the price could be lower." Zhou Chenyu smiled slightly, "I don't think so. Think about it, based on our observations in the past few days, all the products sold by the rouge shops in the Taohua Pavilion area are The conservative and old styles are mostly targeted at older ladies. Our items are all fashionable goods imported from other places. Not only are there a wide variety of styles, but the styles are also more novel. Although they cannot fit into those women’s clothing But young girls are very curious and receptive. If they went to that street, wouldn’t they just come to our store?”

Chen Ping'an clapped his hands excitedly, "Yes, yes, how could I forget such an important thing? The things we sell are all fresh gadgets, which are different from those old antiques. You are right, I see these two The places are good, these are the two places.”

Zhou Chenyu pursed his lips and smiled, placing the cup in the middle, "Then it's settled. When we come back after the new year, we will go to the Taohua Pavilion street and the street to find a location."

"it is good!"

Zhou Chenyu caught a glimpse of the people greeting people outside the window and looked at Chen Pingan, "Are those your fellow countrymen?"

Chen Pingan looked over and quickly waved to them with a smile on his face, "Exactly."

"In that case, I won't delay you." Zhou Chenyu packed up his things, "Let's go, I'll give you a ride."

"Okay." Chen Ping'an picked up the baggage he carried and couldn't wait to walk out. Zhou Chenyu followed him, thinking that if he accompanied him to the opposite side, he could buy a few boxes of shortbread cookies for him, just as a gift to his parents. meeting ceremony.

She was thinking about it, but Chen Ping'an suddenly stopped, turned around and hid, mumbling as if he had seen a ghost, "Chen Yu, let's slow down and get there later."

"Who are you so panicked about when you see him?" Zhou Chenyu looked in surprise and smiled suddenly when he saw a man with a stern face in the crowd, "Are you afraid that he will be like this? Is he that scary?"

"When I saw him, I was like a mouse seeing a cat. Can it not be scary?" Chen Ping'an turned his back to the street and faced the wall. If there was a hole here, he would definitely get into it without hesitation, "Chen Yu, Come in a little more, or he'll see you."

Zhou Chenyu raised his eyebrows and hummed with a smile: "What are you hiding from? I'm not hiding. You go to your friend's place and wait for me. I'll come back as soon as I go."

"what?"

Chen Pingan was at a loss as Zhou Chenyu had crossed the crowd and sneaked up behind Yang Xi.

Yang Xi immediately noticed the movement behind him, turned around cautiously, and saw her standing there with her hands hanging, looking like she wanted to sneak attack him.

His eyes glanced at the small movements on her hands, his cold eyes softened, and he smiled: "Why is it you?"

Zhou Chenyu withdrew his hand in disappointment, squeezed to his side, stared at the pastries in front of him, and said boldly: "I'm here to buy something, store, this, this, and this, give me a portion of each."
