The two uncles and nephews grew up together. With Huo Xi's look, Yang Fu knew what she was thinking. Without Huo Xi's instructions, Yang Fu could carry out her requests. This made her feel more relaxed and allowed her to squint more every day.
a while.
"Let Xi'er sleep. She is pregnant and has been feeling sleepy recently. Just let Mother Ma watch. Vanilla, you go outside and help train the female workers."
"Okay, uncle."
The main commercial streets in the city didn't have the shops Huo Xi was looking for, so she found two large courtyards with seven entrances near the east and west gates and bought them. Yang Fu was watching the craftsmen decorating them these days.
A steady stream of goods was delivered like a flowing stream, and Yang Fu led the steward and a group of clerks to help register and put them into storage.
Half a month later, everything has been arranged and Huo Xi's shop will be officially opened.
When Jun Xiangjie heard the report from his subordinates, he did not take it seriously.
"She doesn't know the heights of the world. She wants to suppress the Jun family's business, which is just a dream."
These days, Tianjun Xiangjie gradually regained his strength. Most of the inventory in the warehouse was cleared, and the goods in the shop were no longer worried about selling. The merchants who had left his family and opposed the Jun family in the past came back to fawn over him.
Jun Xiangjie likes to see others begging him like a dog.
I can't see him looking so anxious.
"I heard that the Crown Prince's wife was looking for a shop in the city but couldn't find it. Instead, she found a large courtyard at the east and west gates. There was a lot of noise inside and she didn't know what to do."
Jun Xiangjie leaned on his chair and listened to the report, feeling very happy.
"As long as I let the word go, she won't be able to buy a shop. What can she do? It can't be opening a shop, right? What kind of business can there be if a shop is opened over there? It's a place where people live, and there aren't many shops around it.
"
Leave the commercial street to do business? Find a new way? A yellow-haired girl, you don’t know how high the sky is. Don’t let her kneel down to beg him.
Jun Xiangjie was in a good mood and took people to look at the east and west gates. He didn't see what was going on inside, so he made a mockery at the door and left.
Huo Xi asked people to close the door tightly, and even the craftsmen were fed and housed in the yard, so outsiders could not peep into what was going on inside.
Not to mention outsiders, no one except Huo Xi and Yang Fu knew what Huo Xi wanted to do. Even several important stewards such as Gen Qi only knew roughly. They only knew that Madam wanted to sell goods, but they didn't know what to sell and how.
.
Jun Xiangjie thought that he had pushed Huo Xi to the point where he had no choice but to find a shop, so how could he squeeze on him? So he didn't take any more care.
But many merchants were still paying attention to Huo Xi's movements, wanting to see how she would respond to Jun's comeback. They couldn't understand what she meant by opening a shop in a house.
April 16th was a good time to open a shop. It was an auspicious day and auspicious time, so Huo Xi's shop was opened.
Early in the morning, at the six city gates of Kunming City, as soon as the city gates opened, well-dressed men were standing there.
They were arranged on both sides, each holding a basket in one hand and a leaflet in the other.
Everyone who enters the city, whether sitting in a car, walking, or carrying a load, and regardless of wealth, is given a flower cake by the clerk. It is so fragrant and fragrant that the smell makes people drool.
It was early in the morning when I was hungry, so this free gift attracted everyone's attention, and everyone was willing to stop and hear the reason.
I also heard that a new store opened today, with many activities and cheap prices. They will also give you a water ticket. With the water ticket, you can go to the perfume shop in Ximen to have a free bath.
God, am I awake?
Why do I know every word I hear in my ears so early in the morning, but when combined, I just don’t understand it?
What kind of new store requires you to choose your own products? What kind of perfume does it sell? You can go for a free shower? What is this? Unheard of.
I saw that all the waiters looked energetic and had smiles on their faces, so I felt embarrassed not to go. There are cakes to eat and there is a place where you can take a shower for free, so go!
When it came time for the business to open, people entering the city were taken directly to the shop by the waiting carriages.
When I arrived at the place, I saw, wow! Oh my goodness, there were so many people, three floors inside and three floors outside. I couldn’t even squeeze in.
They were all here to watch the excitement and wait for the opening. Most of the people had flyers in their hands. They heard that they could get discounts on things with this, so they couldn't throw them away.
Many people got the leaflets at the city gate, and many people in the city got them.
Huo Xi asked the guys to build momentum in the city yesterday. They promoted it for a day in residential areas and commercial districts where people concentrated. Almost everyone in the city knew about it.
Everyone who could walk came out to watch the excitement and wait for the opening.
This time, Huo Xi didn't hide it or cover it up. She showed the sign of Guangfeng Water openly. She had never thought about taking the Guangfeng Water business to Yunnan.
, as a prince’s wife, there is no need to compete with the people for profit.
But the Jun family made her anxious. The rules of the business world were all broken by the Jun family.
In almost every industry, the Jun family is the leader, controlling most of the business in Yunnan. Even if they are domineering in business, they still want to plot against the couple?
I really can't bear it.
Huo Xi created a lot of momentum for the opening of the shop this time, printing a large number of leaflets, and directly printed the words "Yi Shang" in the emperor's calligraphy on them. With this, there was no need to invite the government officials, and no one
Dare to cause trouble.
"Is this really the emperor's calligraphy treasure?" The literate and illiterate people stared at the leaflets in their hands in wonder, not knowing whether they were true or false.
"Of course it's true! Who dares to fake this? Don't be afraid..." He gestured on his neck, startling several people watching around him, and touched their necks.
The person who spoke was somewhat proud and mysteriously told the news he had heard...
"I heard that it was the business of the Crown Prince's wife. Her shops were opened everywhere in the capital and south of the Yangtze River. The emperor had a clear purpose. This 'righteous businessman' heard that it was the Crown Prince's wife who donated a few dollars to the people affected by the disaster.
It cost tens of millions of taels of silver."
"Tens of millions of taels of silver?!" Grandpa Tianshen, how much money is this! Yinshan, right? They can't even count it.
"Really donated tens of millions of taels?"
"Of course! I heard that Mrs. Shizi can talk since she was born, walk at ten months, and start doing business as soon as she walks and talks. She can turn stones into gold! 'Guangfeng Shui' is the business name under Mrs. Shizi's name, and it is everywhere
They all have shops!”
"Wow!"
The speaker was even more proud: "Look at the workshops run by Mrs. Shizi. I didn't bother to take a look at the flowers. Now, you can still see the flowers? The branches have been pulled clean. Who would have thought that flowers can also be seen?
Can they be sold for money? There are also mushrooms in the fields and woods that I don’t even want to eat, and the sauce they make is so delicious! I can’t even afford them now.”
"No. My family was not willing to buy it, so my mother-in-law learned how to make it, but she just couldn't get the taste. Do you think Mrs. Prince's hands can really turn stones into gold?"
"Then I don't know. I only know that the Crown Prince's wife helped my family make money. My son and daughter now go into the mountains and forests every day to look for all kinds of wild flowers, mushrooms and wild products. The income of these children in one day is no better than that of my mother and I.
few."
"It's the same in my family! My mother-in-law knitted cloth at home and sold it to Mrs. Shizi's shop. They refused to accept it at first, saying it was not up to standard. Later, they gave me some personal guidance. Now one piece can be sold for twenty or three cents! Mrs. Shizi is such a good person!
"
The shop hadn't opened yet, and it was covered with a red cloth. When bored, everyone gathered together to chat, and the chatter became more and more outrageous.
Mu Yan's soldiers, who were assigned to maintain order in the crowd, couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
The prince’s wife can do business even when she is just walking? She also turns stones into gold? She donated tens of millions of taels? The floor tiles in her house are all paved with gold? The bowls she eats are all made of gold?
The soldiers suppressed their laughter and endured the hard work. However, they did not dare to relax for a moment and kept a close eye on the crowd, fearing that someone would cause trouble.
