However, most of these commercial streets are clustered on the east and west sides of the imperial city, also known as the East and West Markets.
In the Western Song Dynasty, there was a river called the Yuanjiang River. One of the branches of the Yuanjiang River ran right through the entire Song capital and was also called the Yuanhe River.
Jiang Yuan stood on the bank of the Yuan River and saw that the Yuan River was dozens of miles wide. Most of the people gathering on both sides were restaurants, teahouses, and flower houses.
"Boss Jiang probably gave you this name because of this."
Mu Er said, Boss Jiang picked her up by the river, on the bank of the Yuan River, so he gave Jiang Yuan this name.
"Boss Jiang is a rough man. It's hard for him to do this."
Jiang Yuan spent a day shopping and only visited a few streets.
After all, Songjing is not a small county. It would take several days for her to see the streets of Songjing.
For several days, Jiang Yuan inspected and finally decided on two places.
"The butcher shop should be opened on Tunguan Street. There is a market over there, so it will be more convenient to sell meat."
"As for the medical clinic, I think Ping'an Street, which faces Xuezheng Street, is good and quite quiet."
A medical clinic is no different than other businesses. It does not necessarily have to have a large flow of people. Good medical skills are more important.
Moreover, Ping'an Street is close to the main road, and it is also close to the Yuan River.
There are several large mansions nearby, as well as Jixian Garden and Xuanwen Pavilion, which are said to be royal institutions.
All famous literati gathered inside, and it was also used to collect masterpieces by famous artists.
I heard that the royal family of the Western Song Dynasty built four courtyards for music, chess, calligraphy and painting, including Jixian Pavilion, Xuanwen Pavilion, Yunyin Pavilion and Tianyuan Pavilion.
"It's pretty good, and the size of the shop there is just right."
Jiang Yuan picked several locations, most of which had shops for rent or sale.
That store was for sale, and because it was sold to the public, the selling price was very high.
The asking price is six thousand taels of silver.
Mu Er negotiated the price and paid directly in cash, so he got 5,600 taels of silver.
I found a dentist to sign the contract, and then the deal was concluded.
Jiang Yuan took the house deed and felt a physical pain at this moment.
"I found that the housing prices in Songjing are too high!"
Comparing pork with housing prices, it is really ridiculously expensive.
When the population surged in the previous life, housing prices rose dramatically, but they were not as high as this!
"Shops have always been more expensive than houses. In fact, the house we live in now is several times larger than this shop, but the price is only twice as expensive. The price of the house is also related to the location, such as Zhuma
The price of the houses on the other side of the street is even cheaper. Once you enter a yard, it costs about a thousand taels."
The two of them went to Tunguan Street again.
In comparison, the streets of Tunguan Street have a richer atmosphere of life, with people coming and going, making it very lively.
Because they had already been here yesterday, Jiang Yuan and Mu Er were familiar with each other.
This shop was originally a raw meat business, but there were too many butcher shops on the street, so his business was not very good and was squeezed out, so he decided to sublet it.
Jiang Yuan saw the shopkeeper sitting behind the counter, shaking his fan and resting with his eyes closed.
Hearing the sound, he thought it was a guest, and lazily opened his eyes: "Do you want lean meat or fat meat?"
When he saw the two people from yesterday, he stood up immediately and asked, "Are you two here?"
