People working in Anping also learn a lot of arithmetic based on the numbers on their pay slips.

The pay slip has simple Arabic numbers. For example, basic salary and performance or late deductions are all presented on one pay slip.

If these people don't know basic arithmetic or can't read Arabic numerals, they have to ask others for help.

Fortunately, Arabic numerals are not difficult. As long as the people of Anping learn a little, they can remember them. Arithmetic is even used in daily shopping.

Ever since Mu Qing taught the multiplication formula to the officials, the catchy formula has been used in daily calculations.

It would be much more convenient for people to buy vegetables and rice if they knew arithmetic, so they started to learn it.

There were a lot of words and numbers on the banner that Mu Qing hung.

"Big opening sale, 10% off everything! 10% off everything!"

"Today only, group purchases are as low as 20% off! There are also exciting gifts waiting for you!"

"Everything is 10% off, everything is 10% off, you won't get hurt! You won't get cheated!"

"Pick whatever you want! Pick whatever you want!"

"Take a walk and have a look. Don't miss it if you pass by!"

The overwhelming advertising slogans strike the eyes of people passing by Anping’s main city.

They knew what a 10% discount meant, and they had briefly learned some commodity terms when they were learning arithmetic.

I didn't expect to see so many banners just after I got to the street.

The people of the ancient world had not experienced too many marketing methods. Mu Qing’s slogans were easy to understand, simple and straightforward, and one could understand the meaning with just a quick thought.

And it reads as easily as the multiplication table.

The people of Anping, who understood the meaning, curiously walked into the major shops.

If you give a 10% discount, then something that costs ten cents only costs nine cents.

And group buying can also get 20% off.

They don't understand the meaning of group buying, but that doesn't stop them from understanding that an item that costs ten cents can be bought for eight cents, saving two cents.

Zhang Sanke, a grain merchant from Huang County, said that the fertilizer that can increase crop yields only costs a few cents per pound.

The people who were attracted by the advertisements were very curious about the goods in these shops.

These shops must be opened by the government. They have rarely come into contact with government products. The only thing they have bought from them is salt.

Any goods that have the word "official" in their name will be expensive.

Someone walked into the shop with three parts of curiosity and three parts of nervousness.

I was afraid that I couldn’t afford the goods in the store, but I also wanted to take a look at the things in these shops.

There are many people who hold this idea.

Several shops were crowded before eight o'clock, especially the salt shop and the soil and fertilizer ordering center.

At first they were just curious, but once they walked into the store, the enthusiastic clerk introduced the products in great detail.

These shop assistants had all been trained, and following Mu Qing's rhetoric, the people of Anping were all fooled and a little dizzy.

Take another look at the price.

"Snowflake salt, ten cents a pound?"

"Such good salt, only ten cents, am I right?"

The clerk smiled and said, "You read that right, snowflake salt is ten cents a pound, and each person is limited to buying two pounds, which is two bags of snowflake salt.

The store is offering a 9% discount today, which means you can buy a pound of salt for only cents.

If you can get four more people to buy snowflake salt together, it will be equivalent to a group of five people, and then it will only cost eight cents per pound of snowflake salt."

After the clerk's explanation, they still didn't understand the term group buying very clearly, but these people knew that Snowflake salt was only eight cents per pound today.

They were already making a lot of money, as the salt they usually ate was yellow and astringent and cost dozens of cents per pound.

It is said that this snowflake salt is different.

Zhang San just talked about its benefits.

Snowflake salt is better than official salt.

Without waiting for the clerk to continue speaking, they started looking for group partners on the spot.

It is better to buy directly in the store than to go home and ask relatives to join the group purchase. Who knows how much such cheap salt is left? If others buy it all, you won’t be able to buy it.

Of course, the sooner you buy it, the better.

The Toi Ordering Center was also a busy place.

Many people plan to buy a little bit of fertilizer to try out the effects.

After all, you can save two cents by buying fertilizer today.

A penny or two means a lot in the eyes of ordinary people.

Most people like to take advantage of small opportunities, and the people of Anping are no exception.

I have always heard how useful Tufei is. Since it is also a shop launched by Lord Mu, they also give Mu Qing enough trust.

Those who want to test the waters first will buy local fertilizer, and those who want to take the opportunity to save money will order local fertilizer in large quantities.

For every one citizen who bought one, there were 30,000 people in the main city of Anping, not counting the elderly and children, and almost half of them ordered the fertilizer.

Not to mention that many businessmen have come to Huangxian and seen the fields. These people are the main force in purchasing soil and fertilizer.

The Doi Ordering Center was overwhelmed with orders within a day, and the Snowflake Salt Shop was also affected.

Salt is one of the essential condiments in people's daily life and is very popular.

All the stocks of Snowflake Salt were sold out, and pre-sale orders were scheduled for next month.

These two shops were warmly welcomed by the people of Anping, while the opening of the farm tool shop did not cause any stir at first.

It was not until people truly understood the prices that the business began to become popular.

The farm tool shop is a kind of iron shop.

These people even saved their money because they knew how expensive farm tools were.

Many residents' farm tools are passed down from generation to generation like heirlooms to the next young and middle-aged person in the family.

The fundamental reason for this result is that farm tools are too expensive.

Since ordinary people cannot afford it, they naturally have to use a set of farm tools all the time. If they break, the cost of repairing them is much cheaper than buying new ones.

The farm tool shop also welcomed several waves of people, and everyone learned about the prices and preferential policies of farm tools from the store clerk.

For example, you can rent farm tools for free and you only need to pay a deposit. Once the tools are returned without obvious damage, the deposit will be returned.

This policy is very good for the people of Anping, but no one does it.

People today still have simple thoughts. What they fear most is owing money to others, not to mention the government.

The government is most easily associated with imprisonment, and they will inevitably feel uneasy if they owe money to the government.

Mu Qing has lowered the price of farm tools again and again. Now there is a stable steelmaking method, and Mu Qing will not let the steel flow out.

The output of steel is small, and the material is considered special in this world. It is only used by silver-armored soldiers and other real soldiers in the army.

Iron is different. The output of iron is large, so it can provide a batch of agricultural tools to farmers first.

The convenience of tools can liberate more labor.

The farm tool shops also welcomed the first wave of people after noon.
