Just do what you say, Xu Qin went to visit the store the next day.The busiest street in Wen County is called Xianqian Street, which is located at the main gate of the county government office. Inside, only the most recommended wheelbarrows can enter. It can be said to be a pedestrian commercial street in the Qin Dynasty.

There are various shops on both sides of the street, and every morning, there will be many shopkeepers pushing carts and carrying burdens to sell along the street. It is the most popular area in Wen County.

What Xu Qin chose was a shop located [-] steps east of the county government office. It was a shop facing the street. The shop had two floors. Business.There is a small courtyard behind the store, which has a west wing and an east wing, which can be used as express delivery warehouses.

"Poetry" said: "Under the whole world, is there any king's land." Before the Qin Dynasty, all land was state-owned, and the land could only be divided, granted or recovered by the king, and the people were not allowed to buy or sell it.Since Qin Shihuang ordered "make the head of Guizhou from real land", the folk land trading has flourished.Now Xu Qin is of course free to buy the house he wants.

After taking a fancy to the house, Xu Qin asked the owner of the house to pay the land purchase price. After the land coupon was obtained, the shop officially belonged to him.

Of course, Xianqian Street is under the jurisdiction of the county government, which is equivalent to a market, and there are special patrols responsible for security. After buying the land, Xu Qin has to report to Jin Cao and pay the monthly rent, which is the market management fee.

Sure enough, Zhou Lang gave Xu Qin a very favorable price.After finishing all these, Xu Qin, accompanied by Xu Xin, bought a batch of furniture and utensils, so that this small shop looks like a lot.

Finally, there is the signboard hanging in front of the store. Xu Qin ordered a plaque with the word "Bart" written in the county magistrate's handwriting.Xu Wang's handwriting is good, and this plaque looks very dignified when it is hung out.

Xu Qin and Chen Mai brought two potted begonias from the Xu family's yard and placed them at the door. The express store called "Escort Bureau" was now booming.

Xu Qin asked Chen Mai to write a few big characters on the plain silk hanging at the door: "Our store is open and happy. The first time you come to the store to send documents within seven days is free, and the first time you send items to experience the price, you will get a sachet."

This sachet delivery is a sales method that Xu Qin learned from modern Chinese medicine clinics. During the Dragon Boat Festival, when he went to Tongrentang to see a doctor, he also sent a small sachet of rice dumplings, which contained herbs and spices. In the room, I can smell the fragrance for half a month, and the fragrance smells very comfortable, and it has the effect of calming the mind and refreshing the mind.

Xu Qin knew that both private mail and express delivery were brand new to people in this era, and in order for the locals in Wen County to accept it, necessary sales promotion was necessary.

All the people who came on the first day wanted to send letters to their families. Xu Qin finally counted the names registered by Chen Mai in the book, and there were a total of 12 people.Although the amount is not much, and they don't make any money at all, they are posting money for promotion. Xu Qin is also very happy, which shows that his courier company has finally taken the first step.

In the evening, Xu Qin asked Chen Mai to pack the twelve family letters according to the destination.These letters were basically sent to the counties near Wen County, and the farthest one was only out of Hanoi County.

Xu Qin asked women engaged in weaving in Wen County to make some cloth bags that could be used as express packaging bags.Ancient times are no better than modern times. You can have file bags made of cardboard or packaging bags made of plastic bags, and throw them away after one-time use.What Xu Qinrang makes are recyclable bags that can be recycled many times, and the opening on the top can be closed by pulling the rope.

The delivery address of the courier is handwritten by Chen Buyer on the bamboo piece. This kind of bamboo piece has a small round hole pierced with silk thread, and then wrapped around the outside of the cloth bag. Scratch off the handwriting and write a new one again.

Xu Qin hired ten horses from the stables as mounts for express deliveries. The riders were introduced by Mao Chong through his personal relationship. They were basically unemployed vagrants who could ride, and some had retired from the front line. There is nothing to do at home, just to make money by delivering express.

At dusk, five riders took cloth bags packed with wooden tablets and ran towards five directions.They were on their way in the middle of the night, and in the middle of the night they would stop at the preaching houses along the way.

The next day, some people came to inquire about sending letters. There were [-] people who wanted to send letters in one morning. At this time, Xu Qin asked Chen Mai to inform the remaining five riders, and they would come to the store every day at noon to pick up letters. files so that you can go back and forth on the same day when you are close.

In the afternoon of the third day, when the sun was westward, the five riders who sent the letter first came back one after another. Not only did they safely deliver the letter to the recipient, but they also brought a reply from there.

The courier shop has just opened, and the business is quite busy, so Xu Qin and Chen Mai have eaten in the shop these two days, and Xu Negative will bring a basket of food to the shop, and there is a food seller not far from the shop The place is still very convenient.

After eating the loving dinner given by his sister, Xu Qin was ready to take Chen Mai and leave to deliver the first batch of guests' replies to their homes.

"Second brother didn't meet anyone who came to deliver things today?" Xu Neg asked.

"That's right, you may not be used to this method yet, only those who send letters without money will try it." Xu Qin said a little worriedly.

"Then when you go to the guest's house, you might as well bring the sachet with you. The sachet smells good, and there may be unexpected gains." Xu negative suddenly suggested.

The sachet made by Xu Qin with money is filled with spices that are ground into powder from Chinese herbal medicines such as Angelica dahurica, Chuanxiong, Qincao, Paicao, shan-nai, Gansong, etc. There is one hanging in every room, and the whole Xu family smells delicious.

There must be a reason for Xu Negative to mention this. Xu Qin thanked his sister, picked out a turquoise sachet embroidered with bluegrass, and gave Chen Mai a red sachet embroidered with butterflies and cloud patterns. Go out according to the original plan.

The first family they came to was surnamed Wang, and the messenger was the hostess of this house, named Han Rui. The husband of Mrs. Han, Wang Xuansong, had been doing boat ferry business on the other side of the Yellow River for a long time, and was hardly home. Mrs. Han took a son with her at home. A woman, very lonely, happened to see Xu Qin opened a courier shop. Anyway, the first time sending a letter was free, so she tried to send a letter to her husband, complaining about the pain of lovesickness, and complaining about the hard work of raising children at home. The east room leaked and no one repaired it.

Wang Xuansong wrote back to his wife, saying that he was outside to earn more money for the family. If the house leaked, he could find a young man surnamed Lu next door. His brother was taken care of by him by the Yellow River. That man was a mason. You go to him for help, he will definitely help us fix the roof.At the end of the letter, Wang Xuansong also repeatedly stated that he would definitely go home for a reunion during the Chinese New Year this year, but autumn is approaching, the riverside is getting colder, and his clothes are getting thinner. I hope Han Rui can send him some clothes.

Originally, Han Rui had to wait for her neighbor to pass by the Yellow River in late autumn before asking him to help deliver the clothes. Now she saw Chen Mai squatting on the ground playing with her youngest son, who was still holding Chen Mai's red incense in his chubby little hand. Playing with the sac, as if he couldn't put it down, he suddenly remembered the words written on the door of this shop.

"Can you send clothes too?" Han Rui asked.

When Xu Qin heard that the business came, he quickly smiled and said, "We don't just send clothes, we can also send other things. I see that your child likes sachets. We specially made this one. It can repel mosquitoes, clear the heart, and clear the air." Now, the store has just opened, as long as you send something from us, you will give this sachet."

Han Rui was moved, and asked about the shipping price.

Xu Qin had referred to the prices at that time for the pricing. At that time, the prices were cheap, gold was expensive, and the price of millet was tens of dollars per stone, and a bucket of rice could be bought for only three Qin Banliangs.

Modern express delivery only costs 5-10 yuan. If the express delivery fee is set too high and exceeds people's consumption level, then no one will care about the business at all.Xu Qin set the price at two dollars for the courier that can be sent back and forth in one day, and add two dollars for each additional day.For example, Han Rui needs to run for three days on this one-way trip, so she should be charged [-] kuai, but considering the opening bonus, she will pay [-] kuai, so she still needs to pay [-] kuai.

Three yuan can buy a sachet, and Han Rui thought it was a good deal, so she said to Xu Qin, "Then send me a pack of thick clothes."

"Okay, please pack the clothes, Madam, and we'll bring them back to the store for you now." Xu Qin said enthusiastically, "As for the sachet, Madam can come to our store tomorrow with the child. Your son chooses."

Xu Qin was very happy when he finally got the first order of fast items. On the way back, he said to Kunpeng, "How did I complete this task? Should I be praised?"

Kunpeng lazily wandered through Xu Qin's mind a few times: "It's not bad, but let me remind you, you're still in a losing business."

"Everything is difficult at the beginning. If you don't make a loss at the beginning, how can you open up the market?" Xu Qin is still full of confidence in the future business.

"Because you are so motivated as the owner of the company, let me tell you in advance." Kunpeng said, "After the first paid express delivery is completed, you will receive mysterious benefits."

"What is it?" Xu Qin asked curiously.

"The secret cannot be leaked, and you will know when the time comes."

Three days later, when Xu Qin woke up, he saw the blue bird squatting on his quilt making a nest, and almost shook the bird on the quilt to the ground.

Kunpeng flapped his apparently underdeveloped little fleshy wings and fluttered up for a while before landing on the edge of the bed: "Why are you so rough all morning? Are you surprised or surprised when you see me?"

What kind of mysterious benefits, thanks to Xu Qin's long-awaited expectation, turned out to refer to the materialization of Kunpeng.

"Brother..." Chen Maizheng happily pushed the door open, but was stunned for a moment when he saw Xu Qin holding a blue ball in his hand, and then asked hesitantly, "Why are you carrying a blue ball in your hand?" chicken?"

Kunpeng: "Chirp, chirp, chirp??!!!"

The author has something to say: Kunpeng: How dare you say that the noble bird is a chicken?

Chen Mai: Who made you look so chicken-like?

Xu Qin: Let me introduce to you, this is just my pet chicken

Kunpeng: (#`O')! ! ! ! !
