Chapter 39 Candy
All the clerks explained their business philosophy, and only Ye Xu remained in the end.
Ye Xu looked at this and that, he didn't actually have too many ideas, he just wanted to experience different customs in the process of completing the task.If possible, it would be best to be able to bring a little warmth to the aborigines of the current plane.
This original intention, Ye Xu, has never changed. Now that he has a young daughter, he wants to do something for everyone.I don't know if gods and Buddhas exist, but it is always good to accumulate some virtue for my daughter.
So Ye Xu thought about it and said, "I'm going to open a candy store in the village."
"Village?" Jiang Yuexuan was a little surprised, but soon understood what he meant.
Restricted by traffic conditions, many villages are actually very far away from the county seat, making it inconvenient for villagers to purchase items.These villages usually make an appointment to choose a location in the center of Nan`feng, and then hold a market in that place after a period of time to sell and exchange items.
The scale of this kind of village gathering will not be very large, and the types of goods are limited, and they are basically necessities.Items like sugar are hard to see in village fairs.
Sugar is expensive, and not many people are willing to spend money to buy it. No one is willing to ship things all the way there. Does transportation cost nothing?After the shipment, the price has to be raised to avoid losing money, but the villagers love to be careful and budget-conscious, and they are not willing to buy luxury candies, and it is even more impossible to buy them after the price increase.
If Ye Xu sold sugar at the original price in the past, he could still sell a little.The lower the price, the better the sales.And it is not without saying to the outside world, only that they buy a lot of goods, so the purchase price is cheap.
Candy is generally quite durable and not easy to break. It makes sense to stock up a large amount and sell it slowly.It's just that you have to choose a relatively affluent village area in advance, otherwise no one may really be able to afford candy.
But Ye Xu said: "I plan to sell maltose, the cost is very low."
Many aborigines in this plane don't know how to make maltose, but they know the existence of this kind of sugar.
A small bowl of this thing can be pulled out for a big push, and then cut into small pieces for sale, the profit margin is very large.So even if the aborigines sell maltose, the price is very low, and the villagers can definitely afford it.
The most convenient thing about maltose is that you can make it yourself at home, which saves you the trouble of purchasing.The cost is all on the wheat, which belongs to grain, and the farmers have a lot of it at home, even if they purchase it, they can find the villagers nearby to buy it.
Ye Xu planned to choose an area with many villages, and there would be a large number of participants in the village fair. It would be difficult for others to find out whether he went to the surrounding villages to find people to buy grain.Even if he didn't see him buying the goods, he would imagine that he had stockpiled a lot of food at home and hadn't consumed it yet.
The only trouble with maltose is artificial, but ancient times are different from modern times.In ancient times, manpower was worthless, and small businesses generally didn't pay much attention to it when pricing, so the complexity of the operation actually had little effect on the price of maltose.
Ye Xu doesn't need to make it himself, he can just buy the finished product, otherwise he would not want to do this business, it would be too much effort.
"You want to sell only maltose?" Jiang Yuexuan raised her eyebrows.
"Of course not, we have to add something else." Ye Xu said, "The more expensive candy is also sold, the quantity can be smaller, and it would be too monotonous to sell just one."
There is only one month left before the Chinese New Year in the current plane, and the villagers must buy some candy to fill the scene.Poor people buy maltose, and those who are a little richer will buy more high-end candies. Ye Xu does not intend to go out of his way to make some modern candies that the ancients have never seen before. He is going to investigate what candy shops in the surrounding counties sell. Imitate it.
Jiang Yuexuan thinks it's feasible, but this store probably won't get too many points.The villagers have always been reluctant to eat and drink. Even if they bought candy, they would take it home and taste it cherished. If they didn't eat it in the store, Ye Xu would not receive points.
"Isn't Mobei helping to earn points?" Ye Xuli said confidently, "I'll be a professional and give you warmth."
Having said that, Ye Xu ordered the robot butler to open another branch.
It was said before that the robot butler was used by Han Yingshen, but Han Yingshen said that this time the set meal restaurant will not be available for the time being.He took Shuangshuang away, saying that it was enough for Shuangshuang to come up with an idea when encountering a problem.
Since Han Yingshen didn't want a housekeeper, Mo Bei, who refused to admit defeat, naturally said that he could do it and didn't need help.So the housekeeper was left vacant, and Ye Xu felt that it was a waste for him to open a candy store with him.
If you want to earn points, you must open a shop that can retain diners, so Ye Xu finally chose to ask the housekeeper to open a noodle shop.
Although noodles can be packed and taken away, they will become lumpy after a long time, and the soup is not convenient. Most people will choose to eat directly in the store.There are vegetables and soup in the noodles, and it tastes fast, and it is also very suitable for dinner. This one can be driven near the pier.
The noodle shop opened in the mall before is different from the regular noodle shop.Ye Xu argued hard with the system's reasoning before finally securing the qualification to open a noodle restaurant.
"When you encounter new UR cards, send them to open a branch." Ye Xu really didn't want to let go of any labor.
Since the points obtained by each plane are limited, the operating costs are not fixed. If they stay here for two more years, they will have to pay tens of millions more in water, electricity and logistics costs. They must complete the task within a year and leave.In the ancient plane, the traffic volume was small, the transportation was inconvenient, and it was difficult to earn points, so it was safe to open a few more stores.
In order to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm, Ye Xu changed the previous dividend system, promising to share half of the branch's net profit with the branch manager.When Mo Bei heard that there was such a good thing, he urged Ye Xu to go to the next plane without saying a word.
No matter how anxious he was, he would have to wait until the next day, Ye Xu drove him back and had a good night's sleep.As for whether they can sleep, Ye Xu doesn't care.
The next day, Ye Xu purchased two new floors and divided the employees into their own branches, before pressing the send button.
The system teleported everyone to the location they selected one day in advance, and when Ye Xu regained consciousness, only Zhenzhen was left by his side.
The shop was decorated to look antique, and the shop was not too small. Before the door was opened, Ye Xu adjusted the layout first.He plans to put more benches in the store for pedestrians to settle down.
There is no place to rest in the bazaar. When shopping in modern times, people often encounter situations where they are tired from walking and have to find a drink shop to sit down and rest. There are even more ancient people.No one here deliberately sets up public benches outdoors, and the villagers are too embarrassed to sit in other shops instead of buying things. More importantly, there is no such thing as Ye Xu who only puts stools and does not put tables around here. shop.
Ye Xu placed the bench so that more people could come in and have a rest. It would be even better if some of them brought food, as he could earn "free canteen" points for nothing.
Even if you don't bring any food, you will usually buy a piece or two of candy after you enter the door, right?In order to avoid being kicked out by the store, I believe they will "cherish" these two pieces of candy very much, and eat them slowly, so that they can sit for a while longer.
Of course, Ye Xu aimed more at parents with children.Parents bring their children in to rest. When the children see the candy sold here, they will definitely clamor for candy. Who can afford maltose that costs two yuan for one penny? Out of money to buy candy.
After the arrangement was completed, Ye Xu turned around and felt very satisfied.
He only set up a small counter at the entrance to sell sugar, and the rest of the space was filled with benches.After a while, open all the doors, and outsiders can see the situation here at a glance.
Seeing that her father was busy, Zhen Zhen ran over and stood on tiptoes to help put the things away.After a while, the counter was filled with candies of various colors in large saucers, which are used to attract children.
"Would you like some?" Ye Xu picked up a peanut candy and asked Zhenzhen.
Zhen Zhen nodded, took it with both hands, and said delicately, "Thank you, Dad."In fact, she didn't eat candy very much. In the past, her uncle and aunt treated her really badly, and they didn't provide snacks at all.
"You can eat all the candy here." Ye Xu said, "But you have to be restrained. If you eat too much candy, you will have a toothache, you know?"
Zhen Zhen complied obediently, ate one of each of the five kinds of candies and didn't take any more.
Ye Xu felt that five candies were too little, and he usually ate half a pack of candies in one go.But he didn't know if a little girl who hadn't changed her teeth could eat so much. Adult teeth are always more resistant.
However, even the omnipotent sister Xuan couldn't answer this question.
On the contrary, Luna repeatedly assured that the healing technique could cure the problems on the teeth, so that he could try it with confidence.If you give too much every day, you can reduce the daily candy supply as appropriate after you are cured.
Having said that, Ye Xu just increased the number of candies to 10.Most of the sugar sold in the store has many other things added, such as peanut sugar, peanuts account for 90%, so eating a little more should be... no problem, right?
While Ye Xu was thinking, he kept his hands and mouth, unknowingly finished a plate of peanut candy.After eating, he looked at the empty plate and fell into thought. This plate can hold about [-] pieces of candy, but he just ate it all. It was all because the candy he bought was so delicious.
That does not work.
Ye Xu quickly realized the problem, he replaced the big plate with a small one, and put three or four yuan in each.
There is no need to put so many exhibits, otherwise you have to stare at the greedy cats and eat them.One less than three or four yuan is very obvious, and one or two less than more than 20 yuan is not noticeable at all.
Ye Xu doesn't mind the children who come and go steal candies, since people, except for being well-bred, have more or less stolen snacks when they were young.It's not that they don't know that it's not good to do so, but they can't control themselves because of their greed. In fact, they won't develop the habit of petty theft because of this.
Ye Xu mainly guards against some adults who feel cheap after seeing so much sugar, and insist that they have the cheek to try it.He really didn't want to deal with this kind of person, and he didn't want Zhenzhen to face this kind of thing at close range.
Thinking about it this way, three yuan is still too much, so it makes sense to put one.No one will take it as a taster if it is alone, right?
In addition, Ye Xu also changed the candy supply in the store.You can't buy candy with too high a rating, it's too eye-catching.Ordinary candies are enough to surprise the villagers, and they are also in line with its pricing, and candies with high ratings are too tempting.
Even Ye Xu, who ate too much good food, couldn't hold back and ate a big plate in one go. How could those villagers resist the temptation?Ye Xu just wants everyone to use their spare money to sweeten their mouths, and he doesn't want them to waste their money just to eat candy. After all, candy is really addictive.
After trying to restrain himself for a long while, Ye Xu didn't get himself another plate of peanut candy for a toothbrush.Being a father has to lead by example, the youngest daughter can only eat ten candies a day, how can he eat casually in front of his daughter?That little girl will definitely feel wronged!
"Cough, if you want to eat snacks, Dad will buy you dried fruit." Ye Xu said, picking out some dried fruits with low sugar content, some were freeze-dried, and some were dried fruit slices.These things are very good for grinding your teeth. You can eat them slowly. When you get tired of eating, you can switch to beef jerky. That is also very suitable for killing time.
Zhen Zhen happily sat down behind the counter with a cloth bag of dried apples, but Ye Xu asked her to go back to the backyard to watch animations and she refused to go.The little girl is not interested in cartoons and has no other hobbies. It seems that she only likes playing the piano.
What should I do about this, even the ancient planes can't have a piano!I don't know how well the sound insulation effect of Zhenzhen's room is. If the effect is good, maybe I can try to buy one and put it in?
"Do you want to continue playing the piano?" Ye Xu first asked his daughter's opinion.
Unexpectedly, Zhen Zhen shook her head frantically, wanting to cry: "Father, I don't like piano anymore."
Anyone who has been squeezed like this for a few years will probably lose his love for the piano.Ye Xu sighed and nodded in understanding.
"Then what do you like now?"
Zhenzhen thought about it seriously: "I still like music, but I don't want to play the piano, can I learn other instruments?"
"Of course, Dad will buy you whatever you want to learn."
There's nothing wrong with this, Ye Xu wished his daughter would have more hobbies, otherwise it would be boring to follow him around the shop all day long.Such a little girl should have a colorful life instead of staying behind the counter all day.
It may be that ancient times came, and Zhen Zhen ignited her interest in classical musical instruments.What she wanted to learn first was guqin, so Ye Xu bought her a guqin with great expense, and even deliberately asked the system to open the back door, hoping to hire a robot teacher with all-round musical instruments.
The system rejected it: "I am a serious gourmet system, only the relevant employees of the gourmet store."
OK.
Then I can only use the idea of meeting coupons, hoping to meet a UR card who can play the piano.
Putting aside the matter of learning the piano for now, Zhen Zhen said that she could follow the video to learn at first.But it just opened today, and she doesn't want to leave her father, so she can start studying formally tomorrow.
Ye Xu had no objection either, and opened the shop door after tidying up.
Although the village market is a market jointly organized by the villages, because there are too many surrounding villages, people often come here to trade on weekdays.The meeting that was originally held every half month has gradually become a small meeting every day and a big meeting once every half month.
Since there are customers coming here every day, it is not surprising that there are a lot of shops in the meeting place.At the beginning, everyone set up small stalls, but later attracted specialized small vendors, and set up a shed in a fixed location to open every day.
Gradually, the rough sheds were replaced by thatched cottages, and then wooden houses.Up to now, there are several serious shops like Ye Xu's.
The shop at Ye Xu's location didn't know what it sold in the past. The information only said that the last one's business was in a downturn and it sold the shop.This is still the largest shop on this street, and the rest are basically stalls or simple wooden houses, and there are very few serious shops.
Finding that the shop has reopened, and the plaque has not yet been hung, many bosses who are preparing to set up the stall all looked over.I was a little surprised to see a young man whom I had never seen before, accompanied by a little girl.
Ye Xu took the initiative to chat with the neighbors. Before coming, they all changed into the ancient costumes of the current plane, at least to reduce the burden of the system buff.Short hair can't grow long in a short time no matter what, so I can only match it with the clothes.
Zhen Zhen, who was wearing a skirt, timidly hid behind her father, poking out half of her face to look at everyone, her small appearance made many people cute.
They were not too surprised to hear that they were a father and daughter.People in ancient times got married early, but Ye Xu, who has a tender face, has such a big daughter, which is not surprising to everyone.
"Where is the baby's mother?" An enthusiastic aunt asked habitually. After asking, she realized that she had said something wrong and apologized quickly.
Ye Xu shook his head to express that he didn't care, but he didn't explain too much.Everyone understood that Mrs. Ye must have passed away, leaving only the father and daughter to depend on each other.
Immediately, my aunt started to think that anyone who can sell this shop must have a solid family background.The original partner left a girl in the picture, and her daughter would definitely not have a hard time marrying in the past as a second wife. Seeing that the young boss should be easy to get along with, and he will be very gentle with his wife.
It's a pity that everyone didn't know Ye Xu's background, and they didn't dare to match him for a while.After all, you have to find out the situation first, see where he is from and how the elders in the family are, and you can't sell your daughter just because he is not bad for money.
Ye Xu hadn't noticed the little girls' thoughts for the time being, so he returned to sit behind the counter after exchanging pleasantries.It's a bit early today, and there is still a quarter of an hour before the official opening. Now the genius is dim, so let's sit down and have a good rest.
"Are you sleepy?" Ye Xu asked his daughter in a low voice.
Zhen Zhen shook her head, her small eyes were bright, obviously very excited.Since she was a child, she could not do anything except practice the piano. Opening a store with her father was a boring thing for other children, but it was a novel experience for her.
"Father, will many children come to buy candies?" Zhen Zhen asked expectantly.
Ye Xu understood: "You want to make friends, don't you?"
It's because he didn't take this into consideration. If he had known this, he could have opened the store in a relatively affluent village.That way, although the number of people coming to patronize will be much less, it will allow the daughter to run and play wildly in the village with other little girls.
Now it is not so convenient to open the store in the market.Regardless of ancient times or modern times, there were many kidnappers in this kind of place, and he was worried about letting the little girl go out to play alone.
But looking at Zhen Zhen's expectant eyes, Ye Xu couldn't bear to restrain her.After much deliberation, he still called a pair of robot waiters to come out. These two were boys and girls, and they were said to be Zhen Zhen's cousins, who came to play with them when they got tired of staying at home.
With a pair of robots following, the safety factor is much higher.Ye Xu will get them some self-defense items, the kidnappers will definitely not be able to beat them, so there is no need to worry.
Zhen Zhen's eyes brightened even more when her father said that she could play nearby with her new friends.She began to look forward to the children coming to her door, but the people who got up early to buy things in the market were usually adults without children.
The first customer that greeted Ye Xu's shop was not a nearby villager, but the son of the owner of the wonton stall across the street.The little guy was drooling when he heard his parents talking about the caramel candy store here, and he pestered his parents for copper coins to buy candy.
"Don't make trouble." His mother slapped his butt twice, "You see, the store is so big, the things must not be cheap. What kind of candy can you buy with copper coins?"
Ye Xu, who pricked up his ears to pay attention to the movement around him, sighed helplessly when he heard this.He didn't do any decoration for the store, just the most basic wooden house appearance, and the counter benches in the store are also very ordinary, half-new and not old, but this still makes everyone mistakenly think that he is selling expensive items.
Looks like a sign needs to be put up...
Ye Xu went to the backyard, pretending to go to the back to get a brand, but actually bought it on the spot.He didn't want to show his own calligraphy. He asked the system to write one for him. There are two vertical columns from right to left——
Maltose is a penny and two coins;
The rest of the candy is ten pennies and one tael;
One tael of the current plane is about 37 grams, there are about 8 pieces of peanut candy, and one piece of peanut candy is about 4 to 5 grams.It’s not too big, but it’s cheap, one piece costs more than a penny. Although it’s more expensive than maltose, it’s still affordable for ordinary people during the holidays.
As soon as the sign was put up, someone was ready to move.No one around who has set up stalls for a long time is really that poor. In order to appease the people, the court did not charge stall fees for this spontaneous market outside the city, and no one came to collect taxes.
In fact, this place is too remote, surrounded by poor villages, no one cares about the small money in this area.If it weren't for the distance from the county seat, everyone would actually prefer to open a store in the county seat. At any rate, it is in the city, where public security is guaranteed.
Bandits and robbers are rare nowadays, but there are many wild wolves and tigers in the mountains.That is to say, this piece of land is flat, and the mountains and forests are far away, otherwise, who would dare to stay here all day to set up a stall.
Soon, the son of the wonton stall rushed over with a copper coin.
They don't pay much attention to cleanliness these days, so Ye Xu just put two pieces of maltose in the boy's hands with a small clip instead of packing it in oiled paper.When the people around saw this, no one thought there was a problem, and they all took it for granted.
"Boss Ye, why is your candy sold so cheap?" Someone couldn't help but lean over to make friends.
Ye Xu gave him a piece of malt candy to eat, which seemed to be entertaining the neighbors, but in fact, he thought that it was rare for someone to stay in the shop to eat.Let him eat some sticky maltose while chatting, this food is slow to eat, but also durable, it is very suitable for tooth-beating festivals while chatting, and can keep people for a while.
The man was very happy to have candy, and praised in his heart that the little boss can be a man.
Sugar is so expensive these days, pure white sugar and these peanut sesame candies are not the same price!Even if maltose is sold cheaply, considering the price of white sugar, he still has a feeling of taking advantage.
The man savored the sweetness in his mouth, and then added: "Peanut candy is sold for 15 yuan a tael in the county! You sell it too cheap!"
Ye Xu smiled: "The monthly rent of a rented shop in the county is not low, and of course it is more expensive. I make this candy by myself, and there are enough peanuts in it, so the cost will naturally come down."
The peanuts here are much cheaper than sugar, and if you grow them yourself, they are even less valuable.Modern people are tired of eating candy. When eating peanut candy, they like peanut candies with more peanuts and less sugar.
But they will not think that Ye Xu cheats people because of this, it is good to have candy, and it is better to have more of this kind of cheap candy.Poor people just want a taste of sweetness, who cares how much sugar is put in it, as long as it is sold cheaply so that the family can eat it twice more.
"You're good, give me one or two of each." The chatter smelled the aroma of peanuts and sesame seeds, and couldn't help it.
In addition to these two kinds of sugar, there are autumn pear candy and peach candy according to the two names. These two are fruit-flavored, and some fruit juice is added to the raw materials.What Ye Xu said to the outside world was that a month ago, when the wild fruits were ripe, they made a large batch. Because the wild fruits were not worth much, the cost was not high. Except for the juice, it was just ordinary caramel.
"There are not many of these two kinds of stock. If you like them, remember to buy them early. If they are sold out, there will be no replenishment." To lie, Ye Xu reminded.
His shop probably won't be able to open the next time the wild fruit is ripe, so in the future, it will only sell the first three kinds of sugar for a long time.
Ye Xu looked at this and that, he didn't actually have too many ideas, he just wanted to experience different customs in the process of completing the task.If possible, it would be best to be able to bring a little warmth to the aborigines of the current plane.
This original intention, Ye Xu, has never changed. Now that he has a young daughter, he wants to do something for everyone.I don't know if gods and Buddhas exist, but it is always good to accumulate some virtue for my daughter.
So Ye Xu thought about it and said, "I'm going to open a candy store in the village."

Zhen Zhen nodded, took it with both hands, and said delicately, "Thank you, Dad."In fact, she didn't eat candy very much. In the past, her uncle and aunt treated her really badly, and they didn't provide snacks at all.
"You can eat all the candy here." Ye Xu said, "But you have to be restrained. If you eat too much candy, you will have a toothache, you know?"
Zhen Zhen complied obediently, ate one of each of the five kinds of candies and didn't take any more.
Ye Xu felt that five candies were too little, and he usually ate half a pack of candies in one go.But he didn't know if a little girl who hadn't changed her teeth could eat so much. Adult teeth are always more resistant.
However, even the omnipotent sister Xuan couldn't answer this question.
On the contrary, Luna repeatedly assured that the healing technique could cure the problems on the teeth, so that he could try it with confidence.If you give too much every day, you can reduce the daily candy supply as appropriate after you are cured.
Having said that, Ye Xu just increased the number of candies to 10.Most of the sugar sold in the store has many other things added, such as peanut sugar, peanuts account for 90%, so eating a little more should be... no problem, right?
While Ye Xu was thinking, he kept his hands and mouth, unknowingly finished a plate of peanut candy.After eating, he looked at the empty plate and fell into thought. This plate can hold about [-] pieces of candy, but he just ate it all. It was all because the candy he bought was so delicious.
That does not work.
Ye Xu quickly realized the problem, he replaced the big plate with a small one, and put three or four yuan in each.
There is no need to put so many exhibits, otherwise you have to stare at the greedy cats and eat them.One less than three or four yuan is very obvious, and one or two less than more than 20 yuan is not noticeable at all.
Ye Xu doesn't mind the children who come and go steal candies, since people, except for being well-bred, have more or less stolen snacks when they were young.It's not that they don't know that it's not good to do so, but they can't control themselves because of their greed. In fact, they won't develop the habit of petty theft because of this.
Ye Xu mainly guards against some adults who feel cheap after seeing so much sugar, and insist that they have the cheek to try it.He really didn't want to deal with this kind of person, and he didn't want Zhenzhen to face this kind of thing at close range.
Thinking about it this way, three yuan is still too much, so it makes sense to put one.No one will take it as a taster if it is alone, right?
In addition, Ye Xu also changed the candy supply in the store.You can't buy candy with too high a rating, it's too eye-catching.Ordinary candies are enough to surprise the villagers, and they are also in line with its pricing, and candies with high ratings are too tempting.
Even Ye Xu, who ate too much good food, couldn't hold back and ate a big plate in one go. How could those villagers resist the temptation?Ye Xu just wants everyone to use their spare money to sweeten their mouths, and he doesn't want them to waste their money just to eat candy. After all, candy is really addictive.
After trying to restrain himself for a long while, Ye Xu didn't get himself another plate of peanut candy for a toothbrush.Being a father has to lead by example, the youngest daughter can only eat ten candies a day, how can he eat casually in front of his daughter?That little girl will definitely feel wronged!
"Cough, if you want to eat snacks, Dad will buy you dried fruit." Ye Xu said, picking out some dried fruits with low sugar content, some were freeze-dried, and some were dried fruit slices.These things are very good for grinding your teeth. You can eat them slowly. When you get tired of eating, you can switch to beef jerky. That is also very suitable for killing time.
Zhen Zhen happily sat down behind the counter with a cloth bag of dried apples, but Ye Xu asked her to go back to the backyard to watch animations and she refused to go.The little girl is not interested in cartoons and has no other hobbies. It seems that she only likes playing the piano.
What should I do about this, even the ancient planes can't have a piano!I don't know how well the sound insulation effect of Zhenzhen's room is. If the effect is good, maybe I can try to buy one and put it in?
"Do you want to continue playing the piano?" Ye Xu first asked his daughter's opinion.
Unexpectedly, Zhen Zhen shook her head frantically, wanting to cry: "Father, I don't like piano anymore."
Anyone who has been squeezed like this for a few years will probably lose his love for the piano.Ye Xu sighed and nodded in understanding.
"Then what do you like now?"
Zhenzhen thought about it seriously: "I still like music, but I don't want to play the piano, can I learn other instruments?"
"Of course, Dad will buy you whatever you want to learn."
There's nothing wrong with this, Ye Xu wished his daughter would have more hobbies, otherwise it would be boring to follow him around the shop all day long.Such a little girl should have a colorful life instead of staying behind the counter all day.
It may be that ancient times came, and Zhen Zhen ignited her interest in classical musical instruments.What she wanted to learn first was guqin, so Ye Xu bought her a guqin with great expense, and even deliberately asked the system to open the back door, hoping to hire a robot teacher with all-round musical instruments.
The system rejected it: "I am a serious gourmet system, only the relevant employees of the gourmet store."
OK.
Then I can only use the idea of meeting coupons, hoping to meet a UR card who can play the piano.
Putting aside the matter of learning the piano for now, Zhen Zhen said that she could follow the video to learn at first.But it just opened today, and she doesn't want to leave her father, so she can start studying formally tomorrow.
Ye Xu had no objection either, and opened the shop door after tidying up.
Although the village market is a market jointly organized by the villages, because there are too many surrounding villages, people often come here to trade on weekdays.The meeting that was originally held every half month has gradually become a small meeting every day and a big meeting once every half month.
Since there are customers coming here every day, it is not surprising that there are a lot of shops in the meeting place.At the beginning, everyone set up small stalls, but later attracted specialized small vendors, and set up a shed in a fixed location to open every day.
Gradually, the rough sheds were replaced by thatched cottages, and then wooden houses.Up to now, there are several serious shops like Ye Xu's.
The shop at Ye Xu's location didn't know what it sold in the past. The information only said that the last one's business was in a downturn and it sold the shop.This is still the largest shop on this street, and the rest are basically stalls or simple wooden houses, and there are very few serious shops.
Finding that the shop has reopened, and the plaque has not yet been hung, many bosses who are preparing to set up the stall all looked over.I was a little surprised to see a young man whom I had never seen before, accompanied by a little girl.
Ye Xu took the initiative to chat with the neighbors. Before coming, they all changed into the ancient costumes of the current plane, at least to reduce the burden of the system buff.Short hair can't grow long in a short time no matter what, so I can only match it with the clothes.
Zhen Zhen, who was wearing a skirt, timidly hid behind her father, poking out half of her face to look at everyone, her small appearance made many people cute.
They were not too surprised to hear that they were a father and daughter.People in ancient times got married early, but Ye Xu, who has a tender face, has such a big daughter, which is not surprising to everyone.
"Where is the baby's mother?" An enthusiastic aunt asked habitually. After asking, she realized that she had said something wrong and apologized quickly.
Ye Xu shook his head to express that he didn't care, but he didn't explain too much.Everyone understood that Mrs. Ye must have passed away, leaving only the father and daughter to depend on each other.
Immediately, my aunt started to think that anyone who can sell this shop must have a solid family background.The original partner left a girl in the picture, and her daughter would definitely not have a hard time marrying in the past as a second wife. Seeing that the young boss should be easy to get along with, and he will be very gentle with his wife.
It's a pity that everyone didn't know Ye Xu's background, and they didn't dare to match him for a while.After all, you have to find out the situation first, see where he is from and how the elders in the family are, and you can't sell your daughter just because he is not bad for money.
Ye Xu hadn't noticed the little girls' thoughts for the time being, so he returned to sit behind the counter after exchanging pleasantries.It's a bit early today, and there is still a quarter of an hour before the official opening. Now the genius is dim, so let's sit down and have a good rest.
"Are you sleepy?" Ye Xu asked his daughter in a low voice.
Zhen Zhen shook her head, her small eyes were bright, obviously very excited.Since she was a child, she could not do anything except practice the piano. Opening a store with her father was a boring thing for other children, but it was a novel experience for her.
"Father, will many children come to buy candies?" Zhen Zhen asked expectantly.
Ye Xu understood: "You want to make friends, don't you?"
It's because he didn't take this into consideration. If he had known this, he could have opened the store in a relatively affluent village.That way, although the number of people coming to patronize will be much less, it will allow the daughter to run and play wildly in the village with other little girls.
Now it is not so convenient to open the store in the market.Regardless of ancient times or modern times, there were many kidnappers in this kind of place, and he was worried about letting the little girl go out to play alone.
But looking at Zhen Zhen's expectant eyes, Ye Xu couldn't bear to restrain her.After much deliberation, he still called a pair of robot waiters to come out. These two were boys and girls, and they were said to be Zhen Zhen's cousins, who came to play with them when they got tired of staying at home.
With a pair of robots following, the safety factor is much higher.Ye Xu will get them some self-defense items, the kidnappers will definitely not be able to beat them, so there is no need to worry.
Zhen Zhen's eyes brightened even more when her father said that she could play nearby with her new friends.She began to look forward to the children coming to her door, but the people who got up early to buy things in the market were usually adults without children.
The first customer that greeted Ye Xu's shop was not a nearby villager, but the son of the owner of the wonton stall across the street.The little guy was drooling when he heard his parents talking about the caramel candy store here, and he pestered his parents for copper coins to buy candy.
"Don't make trouble." His mother slapped his butt twice, "You see, the store is so big, the things must not be cheap. What kind of candy can you buy with copper coins?"
Ye Xu, who pricked up his ears to pay attention to the movement around him, sighed helplessly when he heard this.He didn't do any decoration for the store, just the most basic wooden house appearance, and the counter benches in the store are also very ordinary, half-new and not old, but this still makes everyone mistakenly think that he is selling expensive items.
Looks like a sign needs to be put up...
Ye Xu went to the backyard, pretending to go to the back to get a brand, but actually bought it on the spot.He didn't want to show his own calligraphy. He asked the system to write one for him. There are two vertical columns from right to left——
Maltose is a penny and two coins;
The rest of the candy is ten pennies and one tael;
One tael of the current plane is about 37 grams, there are about 8 pieces of peanut candy, and one piece of peanut candy is about 4 to 5 grams.It’s not too big, but it’s cheap, one piece costs more than a penny. Although it’s more expensive than maltose, it’s still affordable for ordinary people during the holidays.
As soon as the sign was put up, someone was ready to move.No one around who has set up stalls for a long time is really that poor. In order to appease the people, the court did not charge stall fees for this spontaneous market outside the city, and no one came to collect taxes.
In fact, this place is too remote, surrounded by poor villages, no one cares about the small money in this area.If it weren't for the distance from the county seat, everyone would actually prefer to open a store in the county seat. At any rate, it is in the city, where public security is guaranteed.
Bandits and robbers are rare nowadays, but there are many wild wolves and tigers in the mountains.That is to say, this piece of land is flat, and the mountains and forests are far away, otherwise, who would dare to stay here all day to set up a stall.
Soon, the son of the wonton stall rushed over with a copper coin.
They don't pay much attention to cleanliness these days, so Ye Xu just put two pieces of maltose in the boy's hands with a small clip instead of packing it in oiled paper.When the people around saw this, no one thought there was a problem, and they all took it for granted.
"Boss Ye, why is your candy sold so cheap?" Someone couldn't help but lean over to make friends.
Ye Xu gave him a piece of malt candy to eat, which seemed to be entertaining the neighbors, but in fact, he thought that it was rare for someone to stay in the shop to eat.Let him eat some sticky maltose while chatting, this food is slow to eat, but also durable, it is very suitable for tooth-beating festivals while chatting, and can keep people for a while.
The man was very happy to have candy, and praised in his heart that the little boss can be a man.
Sugar is so expensive these days, pure white sugar and these peanut sesame candies are not the same price!Even if maltose is sold cheaply, considering the price of white sugar, he still has a feeling of taking advantage.
The man savored the sweetness in his mouth, and then added: "Peanut candy is sold for 15 yuan a tael in the county! You sell it too cheap!"
Ye Xu smiled: "The monthly rent of a rented shop in the county is not low, and of course it is more expensive. I make this candy by myself, and there are enough peanuts in it, so the cost will naturally come down."
The peanuts here are much cheaper than sugar, and if you grow them yourself, they are even less valuable.Modern people are tired of eating candy. When eating peanut candy, they like peanut candies with more peanuts and less sugar.
But they will not think that Ye Xu cheats people because of this, it is good to have candy, and it is better to have more of this kind of cheap candy.Poor people just want a taste of sweetness, who cares how much sugar is put in it, as long as it is sold cheaply so that the family can eat it twice more.
"You're good, give me one or two of each." The chatter smelled the aroma of peanuts and sesame seeds, and couldn't help it.
In addition to these two kinds of sugar, there are autumn pear candy and peach candy according to the two names. These two are fruit-flavored, and some fruit juice is added to the raw materials.What Ye Xu said to the outside world was that a month ago, when the wild fruits were ripe, they made a large batch. Because the wild fruits were not worth much, the cost was not high. Except for the juice, it was just ordinary caramel.
"There are not many of these two kinds of stock. If you like them, remember to buy them early. If they are sold out, there will be no replenishment." To lie, Ye Xu reminded.
His shop probably won't be able to open the next time the wild fruit is ripe, so in the future, it will only sell the first three kinds of sugar for a long time.
