I sell food by drawing cards

In the surrounding area, except for Ye Xu, there is no good resting place.At the beginning, no one dared to come in, but as time went by, some people couldn't help it.

The first person who came in was an old woman with a child. She was so obsessed with the child that she couldn't stand it, so she brought her grandson to buy candy.Seeing that she was out of breath from exhaustion, Ye Xu mentioned that she could rest in the shop.

"These benches in the store are for everyone to rest. Whether you come to the store to buy things or not, you can sit down and have a rest." Ye Xu said.

But the old woman said: "It's too wasteful to use such a big shop as the shopkeeper's for people to rest for free."

Ye Xu just smiled and said nothing, but seeing the fine sweat on the old woman's head, he suddenly had a new idea.He recruited a robot that was on standby in the backyard and let it prepare tea.

You don't need too good tea, just boil water with ordinary tea seeds.After it is cooled, customers who come to buy sugar can drink a cup of tea for free.In this way, the shop takes care of the business of the herbal tea stand. There should be many people who are willing to buy two malt candies for this tea, and sit down to drink tea and eat sugar.

In fact, it is also possible to sell herbal tea alone, but Ye Xu thought about it and felt that it was not easy to set a price.

With the frugality of the villagers, they would rather stay thirsty until they go home to drink water, or simply go to the surrounding streams to drink raw water, rather than spend even a penny on tea.However, there is no currency unit smaller than a penny here, so it is better to simply do a gift event.

There is almost no cost for a cup of tea, but it can relieve the thirst of the guests who are resting. Why not do it with a little effort.It would be even better if it can drive the sales of maltose.

The old woman was very pleasantly surprised when she received the tea from the robot. After thanking her again and again, she coaxed her grandson to drink half a cup before she drank it cherishingly.After she didn't want to finish drinking, the robot gave her another cup and told her that the tea here can be refilled indefinitely.

The tea cup is easy to wash, just pass it in clean water once.Ye Xu arranged for a tea-making robot to be responsible for cleaning the cups and pouring tea by the way, and the other one was responsible for delivering the tea.

Considering that ceramics are easy to damage, and you have to argue about compensation at that time, it will add trouble for nothing, so Ye Xu replaced it with a bamboo cup.It is difficult to choose a bamboo cup with a simple appearance. Most of the bamboo cups sold in the mall are exquisite and beautiful. At first glance, they are not suitable for the working people.

Bamboo cups are resistant to construction, so it doesn't matter if you throw them.After drinking the tea, the children can use the bamboo cup as a toy to play with their partners, and return the bamboo cup when they leave.Even if you don't return it, this thing is worthless, just take it away.

The child brought by the old woman was very lively, running around the room with bamboo cups.His behavior attracted many children to come in, all of them were children from the surrounding merchants' homes, who wanted to play with him.

These children were originally looking at such a big shop, so they didn't dare to come in easily.But when they found out that someone was running around and the shopkeeper didn't care, the children naturally became more courageous.

Seeing that there were too many children coming, Ye Xu simply asked Zhen Zhen to take her cousins ​​to make friends with them.Zhenzhen was a little shy at the beginning, but fortunately, the cousin of the robot is very outgoing, leading her to quickly integrate into the group of children.

It's the first time a daughter makes friends, so how can a father watch him.So Ye Xu asked Zhen Zhen to give some candy to her friends, and taught her how to say it.

Zhen Zhen recalled her father's words, and repeated: "My father doesn't let me eat too much candy, I can only eat ten sugar a day. It's all here, let's share one for each of us."

When the friends heard that she had a dad who sold candy but could only eat ten, the initial envy turned into sympathy: "You are so poor, why can't you eat more?"

"Eating too much sugar will cause a toothache." Zhen Zhen explained in a low voice.

"If I can eat candy every day, even if I have a toothache, I will eat it too."

Zhen Zhen pursed her lips and smiled: "You guys still come to play with me tomorrow, and I'll share the candy with you."

Everyone responded immediately, and they also expressed their loyalty that they would help her keep this matter a secret.There are only ten candies, and one is just enough for each of them. If you tell other people that there will be no more candies, that's not okay.

Cousin and cousin also got the candy. They pretended to eat it, but actually received it in their pockets.Wait for the little friend to leave before returning it to Zhenzhen.

Naturally, Ye Xu would not feel wronged by Zhen Zhen, and later offered to help her make up for the scattered candies, but the little girl refused righteously.

"You can't lie to them, say you are using my candy to give them, then you have to really get it from my candy." Zhenzhen is a principled little girl, and she is determined not to cheat.

Ye Xu didn't insist: "Well, it's not bad for you to eat less sugar. I read some parenting books recently, and they all said that children should reduce their sugar intake."

In modern times, many little girls drink too much milk tea and get diabetes. Ye Xu is also worried that after Zhen Zhen becomes addicted to sugar, she will eat a lot of sugar every day and make herself sick.It's really not easy to raise a child. Why don't I have a systematic scanning function, so I can see at a glance whether my daughter is healthy or not, and whether she has minor ailments or pains?

The attraction of a group of children is enormous, and more and more children are attracted.These children are different from the previous sons of merchants. They followed their elders to go to the market, and when they came by themselves, the elders must follow.

The children who came alone had no money and couldn't buy candy if they wanted to.The later group was different. They never forgot to urge their elders to buy candy for themselves while playing around, and those who couldn't resist paid for it.

The parents imitated the old woman and sat down to rest their feet, thinking that since someone did it, it would be no problem for them to learn it.There are too many people who only buy penny candies but sit down to drink tea. The law does not blame the public, and the shopkeeper is not happy and it is not easy to drive them away.

But of course Ye Xu would not drive away this group of people, their emotions fluctuated a lot while drinking tea and chatting.Some emotions were obviously born for gossip, but because they were drinking tea, they were also taken advantage of by the system. After this wave, they earned more points than expected.

But the gossip always comes to an end, even if there are many villages around, the east and the west can chat for a long time.Besides, some gossip will not bring positive emotions to people, so the store will not receive points.

Ye Xu pondered, is it possible to develop new business in the store?He glanced down at the paper book in his hand and had an idea.

When her daughter is not around, and when there is no customer looking for her, Ye Xu usually sits behind the counter and flips through the paper version of the novel, which is specially borrowed from the entertainment section.

Staring at a panel invisible to outsiders in a daze in front of guests is not appropriate, as it tends to frighten others.Therefore, the entertainment section has developed a paper version of the e-book for people to borrow. The appearance will change according to the times. In the ancient background, it looks like a thread-bound version arranged vertically from right to left.

Many teahouses have storytellers, and everyone who comes to drink tea is also to listen to books and have some refreshments along the way.This area is not that rich, and people don't have enough spare money to spend money on listening to books and drinking tea, but when sitting and drinking free tea, listening to a free storytelling book by the way is different.

It's a pity that robots may not be able to handle the heavy burden of storytelling. If you want to do this business, you can only do it yourself.He has listened to a lot of storytellers, and he can learn [-]% to [-]% of them, but... as a storyteller, he will not have many opportunities to be lazy in the future.

Ye Xu looked at his daughter who was playing boring games with her friends, gritted her teeth and decided to do it.As a father, you have to light up your storytelling skills, and you have to tell your little daughter a bedtime story in the future.

And if the story is told well, it can establish a tall image in the daughter's heart.Telling bedtime stories is not enough. If you can gather a large group of people to listen attentively, especially if your daughter’s friends can’t stop listening to the stories he tells, he can not only become a hero in her daughter’s heart, but also be admired by other children along the way.

When I was a child, I was never a king of kids. It is rare to have the opportunity to experience it when I grow up. It is actually not bad.

Ye Xu asked his "cousin" to be in charge of the counter, went inside by himself, picked a suitable place, and asked the robot to remove the bench here and replace it with a high table and high chair. Be sure to let him sit down better than everyone else Head up.In this way, people passing by outside can see him as a "storyteller" at a glance.

The movement here naturally attracted the attention of others, and everyone whispered and wondered what this was about.After the tables and chairs were placed, seeing Ye Xu sitting down behind, everyone became even more curious.

"Shopkeeper, what are you?" Someone asked boldly.

Ye Xu smiled: "I see that you folks are bored sitting around, why don't you come here and tell you a story."

Someone found Ye Xu reading a book before, and he was illiterate. He thought he was reading a book of sages, but only now did he realize that he was reading a script.

The crowd cheered for a while. They didn't have many opportunities to hear books. They often passed by teahouses to listen to them when they went to the county town, and they were too embarrassed to listen too much.After all, I didn't go in and spend money on tea, so I couldn't do something like squatting at the door and reading stories.

There are also precautions for telling stories to the ancients. Take the four great classics as an example. In some dynasties, these few books were all banned books.Ye Xu asked the father of the system, and found that there are no these famous books in the current plane, and the dynasty is completely different, so it is impossible to tell the stories of these books.

After thinking about it, I finally found that it was the most suitable way to go through the prehistoric currents that the predecessors had tried time and again.This whole set is made up, and there is almost no reference to orthodox religious teachings. The story is very strong, and it does not contain any ironic meaning of the current situation.

If you are really worried, you can ignore the two parts of Dragon Phoenix and Sanqing, and just talk about the battle of the Lich.I don't know if the dragon and phoenix catastrophe will be dragged to the royal family by force, but the lich will definitely not be able to pull it.

Ye Xu has read quite a few Honghuangliu novels, so he simply pieced together the plots of many of them to enrich the story.For example, some novels focus on the three thousand demon gods, and he pulls out this paragraph before talking about the opening of the sky.After the catastrophe is over, it will be grafted into the plots of other novels.

The people present had never heard of this rare story, and thought it was a new book of strange tales written by some scholar.Ghost novels are quite popular these days, but most of them have a bit of glamorous color, and there are relatively few purely plot-based ones, but this kind of plot flow can be turned into a long novel that tantalizes people's appetite.

Ye Xu's storytelling about Honghuang is also thoughtful. Everyone wants to hear the whole story.I listened to it today, and if I want to listen to it the next day, I will come back again.Come here, can't you buy two pieces of candy and drink some tea?

At first, many people were attracted by storytelling, and came to listen to it for nothing but buy nothing.But later, seeing that other people had tea to drink and sweets to eat, gradually they couldn't sit still.

Who can afford a penny?So they took out copper coins to buy.If you are more generous, just buy the two-weight candy, and get eight pieces of candy, which can be eaten for a long time, which is very suitable for killing time slowly.

The table in front of Ye Xu usually puts refreshments, and sometimes other snacks bought by the robot from a stall outside.He said to rest for a while and eat something. When others watched him eat, he would naturally get greedy, so he went to buy some to sit down and listen to while eating.

It's a pity that most of the farmers who come and go have to go home to do farm work, and many of them have to leave after listening for a while.After returning home, I was very itchy, and seeing my daughter who was doing needlework at home to subsidize the family, I couldn't help but be moved.

So not long after, many unmarried ladies came over with bamboo baskets, embroidering and listening to books without delay.When the sky is getting dark, we will meet again to go back to the village together. After returning, we will tell the stories we heard to the rest of the family, so that the family members will also be happy together.

In just a few days, this has become a daily routine in nearby villages.Not only young ladies, but also many village women who have no farm work and old men and women who are free to enjoy life, Ye Xu's place is full every day, and it is almost impossible to sit down.

In the past, these people would not come to the market to report every day, and only when they needed to buy things would they let the head of the family come.Now I come here every day, even though most of them bring their own dry food and water, there are still a small number of people who don’t like dry food, and occasionally go to the nearby stalls to make tooth offerings.

The food vendors around were very happy. In order to thank Ye Xu, a kind person, they had to come here every day to buy a portion of candy.If you are generous, you can call it one or two expensive sugar, and if you are frugal, you can only buy a penny of maltose.

These are still small heads, and these villagers who sit in the store all day listening to stories are really good.Although most of them don't buy sugar and drink tea in the shop every day, they bring their own, not only water but also dry food, and eating dry food is also eating. Ye Xu's place has become a "public canteen" unconsciously. , to earn a lot of points.

In terms of energy absorption, the system is also quite good at exploiting loopholes.As long as people who have eaten and drank in the store, even if they just sit without eating, the energy system generated will still be able to absorb it.

Most of the villagers came early in the morning, and took out the pancakes first, which was their breakfast.So they ate and drank as soon as they came, without wasting any energy at all, and all of them were absorbed by the system.Afterwards, they will sit until night, without moving their nests all day, which can be called the best leeks.

Ye Xu himself couldn't stand storytelling from morning to night, so he simply found some suitable vernacular novels and let the robot read them accordingly.

Robots no longer know how to tell stories, and it is still very simple to read novels with voice and emotion.Sometimes they speak better than Ye Xu, because they can change their voices when they read the dialogues of characters, no matter if they imitate old people, children or men and women, they can all imitate them.

Later, Ye Xu decided to tell stories at a fixed time, one hour a day, and let several robots take turns reading novels in the rest of the time.And there must be a special robot to help retell the prehistoric story he told before, because many people have not heard the previous one.

Yejia Candy Store quickly formed a shift system, from what time to what time to talk about which novel, and then change to another one.Several stories are serialized together every day, all with different themes, and they will not be serialized at all.

At the beginning, the folks had no preference for listening to stories, and loved to listen to everything. After a long time, they found that they prefer myths or house fights.For other storytelling periods that you don’t like to listen to so much, switch to someone who loves to listen to this at home, go back and hurry up to work, and wait until the part you like to listen to, and then come to listen to it.

Ye Xu had the illusion that he was a TV station, playing various serial cartoons and TV series every day.Each household is clearly arranged, each person watches TV for one hour a day, and when the time is up, another person watches.

"Shouldn't the TV station arrange some news broadcasts?" Ye Xu joked in the group.

Mobei is in Kyoto at this time, where there are most ladies, suitable for the business of beauty and medicinal food.Jiang Yuexuan is in the most affluent city in the south of the Yangtze River, because most of the big diners in this dynasty are in the south of the Yangtze River. There are many restaurants here that claim to be the best in the world. She wants to face the difficulties and make a name for herself there.

These two places are well-informed places, and they were the first to know after the decree was issued.If you want to get relevant information about national affairs, you can definitely ask them.

After hearing Ye Xu's ridicule, Jiang Yuexuan actually agreed, and said: "From now on, I will summarize the national news for you every day, and if there is no news, I will tell you some interesting stories about the rich people here."

It is very meaningful to explain the latest decree to the people while storytelling.Many people are illiterate and cannot understand the notices posted by the imperial court. They can only listen to false rumors and often misunderstand what the new decree is for.

Although the local officials will arrange for people to explain, but the manpower is limited, and people cannot stand there all the time to preach.It's not bad for Ye Xu to have multiple news periods here. There's not much he can do, he can only help as much as possible.

Seeing this, Mo Bei also said that he would share the information together. In fact, he had the first-hand information.After all, Jiangnan is far away from Kyoto, and it will take three to five days for the news to spread.

"No." Ye Xu was speechless. "It takes three to five days in the south of the Yangtze River. I'm afraid it will take three to five months in the remote villages here. I can't tell if I get first-hand information. The decree hasn't been delivered yet, so I'll take the first step." Tell the people, and then the people went to the Yamen to ask, and the county magistrate said that I didn't know about it, do you two think that I live too comfortably?"

Mo Bei scratched his head: "It seems so?"

"Then you can talk about the old gossip of the aristocratic family." Jiang Yuexuan forgot that there is no Internet here, "If the government orders, you can bring up the previous ones and talk about them. I checked the county magistrate over there. It is a good idea. Officer, don’t worry about offending him if you tell the truth.”

Some good government decrees, such as tax cuts, will be deliberately misinterpreted by corrupt officials after they are passed on, telling the illiterate people that the imperial court will not cut taxes this year, and you have to hand in the original ones.When you get the full amount of taxes, you will hide the more part, and the rest will be handed over to the court.

Under such circumstances, Ye Xu told the people that the county government was deceiving people. Although they were doing good deeds, it was inevitable that they would get into trouble.This kind of thing can only be done when you are about to leave. Now that the operation is stable, it is best to meet a good official who does not make trouble.

Ye Xu also didn't mind helping this good official and the court maintain a good reputation.In the news segment, the decree was broken down and analyzed, telling everyone what is good and how meticulously the county magistrate implemented it, which can make the people around him more stable, which is very beneficial for him to do business.

Businessmen still prefer a stable social environment. In troubled times, most traders have a hard time, and Ye Xu doesn't want any uprisings around him.

"Actually, promoting benevolent government has another benefit." Jiang Yuexuan added slowly, "The audience's gratitude is a positive emotion, which is much more positive than listening to books."

Listening to books will always hear some ups and downs or aggrieved plots. At this time, everyone will only be nervous, worried, and angry, and the system will not absorb negative emotions.You have to wait until this period is over, and the follow-up protagonist will stand up, and everyone will be happy and refreshed, before the points will be credited.

Positive news is different, it is positive sentiment from beginning to end.The more grateful the people are, the stronger their emotions, especially when it comes to their own interests, the energy they provide can be called huge.

Han Yingshen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "You all have information to provide, but I don't seem to have any."

He opened a shop outside the academy, and those scholars didn't eat or sleep when they ate, and they didn't gossip at all.Only during the wait for the meal, there will be a little discussion, but they don't talk about people's right and wrong. They mostly study a subset of classics and history, which is very easy to learn.

Han Yingchen listened to one head and two big. He is from the Western Fantasy, and he doesn't understand it at all. He can even struggle to read modern vernacular, okay?This is such a big blow to a person who loves to listen to gossip. Not only can he not hear gossip, but he is also forced to accept the baptism of the Four Books and Five Classics, which is too difficult.

Hearing this, Mo Bei suddenly felt superior: "I have a lot of gossip here. Those rich and powerful women who come to eat like to get together and tell news about other families. But most of them are private affairs in the inner house, and I don't like to listen too much."

What is the secret rivalry between the lady from the east family and the lady from the west family who want to be the princess?Even noble ladies don't have much contact with government affairs, and the only topics they can talk about are backyard affairs.If we don't talk about this, we can only talk about which shop has good hairpin rings and which shop has bad rouge.

Han Ying sighed deeply.

Alas, he really wanted to go and listen to gossip.It's better than listening to classical Chinese.

Ye Xu's gossip that can be told to the common people is of course not suitable to be mixed with private affairs in the inner house, and it does not produce positive emotions.On the contrary, the family gossip provided by Jiang Yuexuan is very suitable.

She is also narrow-minded, picking up people's unlucky and embarrassing deeds.This kind of joke is suitable for all ages, and it can definitely make people happy, not to mention the common people, Ye Xu is also overjoyed to hear it.

At first, the villagers wondered where Ye Xu knew about so many nobles, but later he justified it himself. The fact that "Treasurer Ye is from Jiangnan" has spread inexplicably, and everyone believes it with a sense of nose and eyes.

If he hadn't opened a shop in the Jiangnan area before, how could he know so many jokes about the Jiangnan family?And he can even tell the latest story, so he must still have a connection with Jiangnan.

I don't know why Shopkeeper Ye ran to them to open a shop. Is it difficult to mess with Jiangnan?I heard that there are often shops in the county that cannot compete with others, and finally the business is poor and they have to close.Thinking about it this way, shopkeeper Ye who was pushed out to their backcountry is quite pitiful.

Ye Xu, who was not excluded: "..." There is no need to add drama to me like this.
