Space Food Storage: Daily Travel
Chapter 126: Taking on a Calligraphy and Painting Business
I was busy until noon before I slowly stopped.
In addition to those who came to buy soap and perfumed soap, more than half of the people who came into the store came to see calligraphy and paintings, which should be the promotion done by those scholars.
Since the biggest customers are these scholars, and of course some wealthy businessmen, most housewives buy soap. Soap is cost-effective and can be used for washing clothes, bathing and washing hair, so they think it is a good deal.
Liu Yuhan asked Bai Zhi and others to close the shop first, and everyone went to the backyard to cook together.
Strength lies in numbers, and the meal was ready in half an hour. Everyone was very hungry, so Liu Yuhan asked them to rest for half an hour after the meal, but the girls went back to work in the shop.
Some gift baskets need to be decorated in advance by hanging some fine red silk or some dried flowers.
If you buy one of each color, you can get a gift basket. There are not many gift baskets, so Liu Yuhan had a sudden idea to buy some and keep them in the store as a backup. Unexpectedly, they were all used up today.
It seems that I have to ask the elders in the village to help me weave another one.
I counted the soaps in the store. There were 1000 pieces of soap in total, 600 of which were from soap. In the morning, soap sales were higher, around 400 pieces, bringing the total to 200 pieces. The blue soaps were the most popular, and the scholar-looking ones were the most popular.
The shop door opens to welcome customers.
Liu Yuhan thought that in ancient times, the peak shopping season was in the morning, and there might not be many customers in the afternoon.
Unexpectedly, Boss Li came over with a few servants. Wuyou hurriedly greeted them with a smile.
"Boss Li, what's this?"
"Soap, laundry soap, how much is one piece?"
"Boss Li, soap is 30 wen each, and today it's on sale for 27 wen each."
"It's so cheap, it can be stored, right?"
"Of course you can, Boss Li."
"First, give me 100 bars of soap. This is three ounces of silver. No need to change."
"Okay, Boss Li, I'll install it for you right away. Thank you for the tip, Boss Li."
"It's a pity that I'm in the seafood business, otherwise I could do the soap business."
Liu Yuhan walked up to Boss Li and said, "Thank you for your patronage, Boss Li. I'm the owner of this shop, my last name is Liu. You've been our biggest spender today, so I'm giving you a golden soap and a blue soap. I hope your business prospers and surpasses mine."
"Okay, okay, little girl. Mr. Liu, you must know this poet and painter, right? Can you introduce him to me? I have a friend who owns a shop. In exchange, I will help you promote the soap."
"Thank you, Mr. Li. Could you tell me what kind of painting you would like to see done? I'll pass it on. Since you've been so helpful in taking care of your business, I'll definitely make at least one painting for you."
"A landscape painting, as long as the meaning is good, it's fine. When can I get the painting?"
"It takes time to paint, especially to make a good painting, at least half a week. You can send someone to the shop to ask when the time comes."
"Well."
"Boss Li, take care."
I sold some more soaps and perfumed soaps in the afternoon, and that’s all for today.
After closing the shop, I took advantage of the daylight to count all the items, including the money.
There are 1000 bars of soap left out of 480 bars. There are 600 bars of soap left out of 385 bars.
The soap cost about 14 taels of silver, and the perfumed soap cost about 40 taels of silver, so a total of 54 taels of silver were sold in one day.
Adding the 135 taels from Huo Er, that's almost 190 taels of silver. The shop still has some inventory. Wow, after selling this batch of soap, I'll make back the 245 taels I paid for the shop, and even have some left over! I didn't expect soap to be so profitable.
Liu Yuhan thought happily, fortunately, he asked the village chief to make a stove eye today. Judging from the popularity today, there is indeed a need to expand production.
When doing business, you have to take advantage of the trend and make as much money as possible if you can make your first pot of gold.
Hehe, she also got herself a calligraphy and painting business. I wonder how much money Boss Li, who is not short of money, will give her.
When I have time, I will think about painting him a "grand and luxurious" picture.
The most favorite mascot of the ancients was undoubtedly the peony, the most prosperous of flowers.
If you are painting an animal, you should choose an animal that represents auspiciousness.
The first one is the white tiger. The ancients believed that the white tiger was a sign of good fortune. There are related records in many classics, such as the "Yuan Shen Qi" which says, "When the king's virtue reaches birds and beasts, the white tiger will move."
The second dragon, forget about the dragon, the emperor calls himself the Dragon's Face. So one cannot offend him lightly.
The third one is the phoenix. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that the phoenix is reborn from the ashes, so it is also a good omen. In ancient times, the phoenix was used to describe the queen, and there are also taboos that cannot be painted.
The fourth one is the turtle. Because turtles have a very long lifespan, people also believe that turtles can bring longevity to people. In ancient times, some people used turtles to tell fortunes. I feel that turtles are a bit insulting, so I won’t draw them.
The fifth one is Qilin. This animal was highly respected in ancient times because people believed that wherever Qilin passed by would bring good luck.
Qilin and white tiger can be drawn.
After standing for a whole day, they were tired. After dinner and a quick wash, the girls went to rest early.
Liu Yuhan started her hard life of harvesting again.
After harvesting this batch of rice and then plowing the fields to plant rice, the diesel will probably be gone. If one person has to harvest the rice by hand and another person has to thresh the rice by hand, her heart trembles and her scalp numbs at the thought.
If it really doesn't work, just plant less. There is already enough rice in the village with room for growth, which is enough to promote grain production.
She can plant some medicinal herbs in the vacant land, as the cycle of medicinal herbs is longer. Besides, she is now making Chinese herbal facial masks and is also preparing to make medicine, so she will need more medicinal herbs.
There are still 90 mu of uncultivated sandy fields, and the watermelons in the space are about to mature. Due to space constraints, only a few dozen have been planted. If a watermelon produces several fruits, there will be hundreds of watermelons, and a lot of seeds can be saved.
I can use the remaining seeds to plant watermelons in Shatin, but I have to wait until next year.
The remaining 90 acres of land should be used to plant potatoes and sweet potatoes. By harvesting the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the sandy fields, we will have more seeds.
Liu Yuhan was driving a rice harvester, harvesting rice while making plans in his mind.
She wanted to save some extra gas for the pickup truck in case she needed it suddenly someday. In her eyes, those barrels of gas and diesel were one of the most precious things in the world.
