The idea of opening a cordyceps specialty store was finalized by Xiao Ruo and Xiao Xun last night during a chat.
Xiaoxun went to Yingzhou for a broader future. Naturally, she wanted to find ways to continue making money when she went to Yingzhou. Being a full-time housewife would not be an option for Captain Xiao.
"Yingzhou is our capital. There are countless dignitaries and rich people everywhere. Isn't our first Cordyceps customer, Mrs. Lichun, from Yingdu? They have the spending power and demand for Cordyceps.
"
Xiaoruo analyzed the Cordyceps market in Yingdu to everyone.
According to her calculations, the cordyceps consumption market in Yingzhou is at least ten times that of Qinzhou. Although it will cost more to transport the cordyceps to Yingzhou, it can also bring greater profits.
The more he talked about it, the more excited everyone became. Who else is more suitable than Xiaoruo to open a Cordyceps Cordyceps store in Yingdu? She is familiar with the medicinal properties and preservation of Cordyceps, and also knows how to market it, so she will definitely make Cordyceps Xinli in Yingzhou.
Shine brilliantly.
The most important thing is that Xiao Ruo is an external director of the Qinzhou Pharmaceutical Chamber of Commerce. After several years of getting along with each other, everyone knows everything about him. They understand that Xiao Ruo is a person who sticks to his word and will not miss out on them even a penny of the agreed profit sharing.
So it was decided on the spot that Xiaoruo would take away one-third of the remaining cordyceps inventory to open the Xinli Cordyceps market in Yingzhou. The purchase quantity of cordyceps would be increased every year, and half of it would be used to supply Yingzhou.
As for the profits of Yingzhou Xinli Cordyceps Specialty Store, the Chamber of Commerce and Xiao Ruo will share the profits 50-50.
Even if the dividend is only 50%, they can make money without having to do any work themselves. They are simply taking advantage.
Therefore, all the shopkeepers are even more affectionate towards Xiaoruo, looking at her as if she is the God of Wealth from heaven.
After settling the matter at the Chamber of Commerce, there is basically nothing to worry about next.
The Xiao family was not short of money now, and in addition to transporting cordyceps, Xiao Ruo simply hired fifteen carriages, loaded all the things in the Xiao family's courtyard into the carriages, and took them away.
The memorial tablets of the Xiao family's parents are the most important and are held closely by two Zaizai.
Then write a detailed letter to Mrs. Liu Wang in Jingzhu Village, attaching three taels of silver, explaining that her family is moving to Yingzhou. The mountains are high and the roads are far away. From now on, they cannot come back every year to visit their parents’ tombs. Please ask her.
Always take more care of me.
Next, the clothes of the four seasons, bed sheets and bedding, pots and pans, baskets and medicine stoves... were all packed and stuffed into the car. If it weren't for the stone table in the courtyard that couldn't be moved, Old Cen would have wanted to take it with him.
After packing up all the gifts, the fifteen carriages except five were filled with cordyceps, and the rest were all filled with the belongings of the Xiao family.
Jiang Ping was dumbfounded when he saw this battle. He knew it was a move, but he didn't know it and thought it was the Xiao family fleeing from famine!
Xiao Ruo smiled sheepishly at Jiang Ping, bent her knees and saluted, "Please look after me along the way. Thank you for your hard work, big brother."
This time when they entered Yingzhou, they followed Jiang Ping and his party, which was equivalent to getting free escorts from Shunji Escort Bureau. Otherwise, Xiaoruo would not have hired fifteen carriages for the trip.
Zhen·Kesou·Grandet·Ruo.
The people who went to Yingzhou together were all members of Jiang Ping's regular team, and they and Xiao Xun were all brothers who knew each other through life and death, so naturally they would not care about this with their own brothers.
He laughed and joked that the Xiaoxun family had a good wife who knew how to live a good life, which made Gouzi's ears turn red again.
He gave the key to the Xiao family yard to Ma Laosan who stayed in Qinzhou, and asked him to hire someone to clean the house every now and then to maintain popularity. After all, if no one lives in a house, it will fall into disrepair soon if no one takes care of it.
Ma Laosan now had tears in his eyes, sniffing his nose and patting his chest, promising to take good care of the house for his dearest brother Xiao.
He really couldn't bear to let his newly married girl stay alone in Qinzhou, otherwise he would definitely follow his elder brother to Yingzhou to make a living!
Under Ma Laosan's moist and affectionate eyes, the motorcade set off on its way to Yingzhou.
Yingzhou and Qinzhou are thousands of miles apart, so the convoy traveled for nearly a month before reaching Yingzhou.
Needless to say, it was a long and arduous journey. Fortunately, the road was on an official road, and the road conditions were acceptable and not particularly bumpy. They also brought sufficient medicinal materials. They would take a ginseng tablet every now and then and drink some Yiqi Decoction to regulate the body. Otherwise, Xiao would be in trouble.
Ruo also worried about whether the two old men in his family could survive to the capital.
“Yingzhou is ahead!”
Zhai Er's excited voice came into the carriage, and Xiao Ruo opened the curtain of the carriage house and looked outside. The towering city walls stretched left and right, with no end visible at a glance.
After handing over the identity documents and checking them one by one by the city gate officers, the motorcade entered Yingdu in an orderly manner.
Riding horses on the streets is not allowed without special permission in the capital. Except for the people in the carriage, everyone else must dismount and lead them.
The carriage also slowed down and marched slowly on the busy streets in cooperation with the escorts leading it.
The bodyguard of the escort bureau, Fang Zhongxiao, was not as strong as the escorts. The four and eight streets in Yingzhou City made it difficult for him to walk all the way, so Xiaoruo asked him to get in the car and sit down.
It was not easy to get into the car and share the same space with Xiaoruo, so Fang Zhongxiao just sat on the floor of the car.
He had been to Yingzhou several times before to report on his work, and was familiar with the layout here. When Xiaoxiao lifted the door curtain and looked around curiously, he simply explained Yingzhou City to them.
"Yingzhou is divided into two cities, the east and the west. We are in the west market now. The west market mostly sells food, entertainment and daily necessities. There are many people coming from north to south here. Many foreigners also do business in the west market. Things in the west market
It’s a mixed bag, you can buy all kinds of things here, and the prices are cheap.”
Following Shopkeeper Fang's explanation, Xiao Ruo carefully observed the people on the streets of the West Market. Sure enough, she saw many foreigners with high nose bridges and deep eye sockets, chatting or doing business. The shops on both sides of the street were selling food and clothing, going in and out.
Most of the people are ordinary people.
"Our escort agency is located in the East City. The East City and the West City are completely different. The East City is close to Tianchang Palace and Tian'en Palace, and there are many residences of officials and dignitaries around it. Therefore, most luxury goods are sold in the East City, and the prices are naturally more expensive than those in the West City.
a lot of."
The wheels were spinning, and while listening and watching, Xiaoruo already had a preliminary plan in mind.
Xinli Cordyceps is positioned as a luxury health-preserving medicinal material, and the West Market obviously does not meet its market positioning, so the Cordyceps specialty store must be established in the East Market.
As for how large a store should be rented and where the store should be located, these issues can only be determined after she conducts an on-site inspection.
The carriage arrived at the headquarters of Shun Kee Escort Agency with the sound of the little abacus in her mind clicking.
Shopkeeper Fang took Jiang Ping to meet the head shopkeeper, while the other bodyguards and the Xiao family were placed in an empty room at the headquarters of the bodyguard bureau to rest.
Although it is the headquarters of the Shunji Escort Bureau, it is not as big as the branch escort agency in Qinzhou. Only fifteen carriages filled the entire escort agency courtyard.
