Chapter 82

Bai Xin went home at night and told his family that the shop had been rented. Everyone said it was so fast, and they wished they could go over there immediately to have a look, and they also knew that a day's delay would be a day's money wasted. Moved the quilt cover and the cooking guy over there, and lived there while tidying up, saving the time of going back and forth all day, even if the house can't be occupied immediately, the Bai family has suffered, anyway Can stay overnight.

Early the next morning, Bai Xin hailed a car and moved boxes and cages into the car.

When the Xia family heard that the Bai family was going to move out, they cried a few times, and then took Cao's hand, saying that they would still be in touch in the future, don't forget about them when they become rich.

The car pulled Bai's family to Panlou Street. Everyone thought that the bustling markets and tile shops that played and sang every day were already lively in the capital. How could they think that compared with Panlou Street, Suzakumen would not What do you mean, like a sparrow compared to a wild goose, Panlou Street is full of variety, selling everything, and they are all rich and well-off, the shops are wide and decent, the Bai family are all dumbfounded, Wu Niang He even pointed at a shop and screamed with laughter, "Third brother, look quickly, it's a bird, it's a bird! It's so colorful and beautiful!"

Bai Xin looked over, and it turned out to be an "Eagle Shop" that sells hawks and falcons. What Wu Niang was referring to was not an ordinary bird, but a parrot with blue feathers and black beak. Yellow feathers, very nice.It was also a coincidence that when they passed by, the parrot happened to bark twice, and said "Hello" in a low voice.

Everyone was taken aback and were amazed. Wu Niang's eyes widened and she looked back at Bai Xin in disbelief, "Third brother, this bird... has spoken?"

After a while, the Bai family came to the new shop. Seeing the hustle and bustle on both sides, Mrs. Cao liked it in her heart. She was also proud of her son's ability, but also worried that the people here had high vision and were afraid that they would not like the rouge and gouache they made. Mixed feelings.

Bai Xin didn't have time to worry about his mother's mood, so he delivered the man and left in a car. He still had a stall to take care of, and he didn't want to close the business, so he just rushed early in the morning and late at night to order furniture and other things in other shops.

Because Bai Xin went out of the stall a little these days, and left earlier than before, the peddler who picked up the goods from him could see it. After asking, they found out that Bai Xin was going to open a shop on Panlou Street. Everyone had mixed feelings. There are also those who are jealous, and some who are envious. The first concern is whether to supply them in the future. After getting an affirmative answer, they breathed a sigh of relief and congratulated one after another.

But these people knew Bai Xin at first, and most of them lived near here. If they went to Panlou Street all day to get goods, it would be far away, and they would feel a little depressed. These peddlers who are wearing his name will only get better business in the future, so they want to open it.

Most of these shopkeepers also have the character of knowing the fate of peace, and now they are very content with earning hundreds of pennies a day, thinking that as long as they still supply the goods and keep the same, one of these people is the most agile and flexible, It was Zhang Dalang who was the first to approach Bai Xin. Seeing that Bai Xin was about to open a shop, his heart moved, and he asked for the address of Bai Xin's new shop. That night, he brought a box of snacks and a basket of eggs. , I found it.

At this time, the Bai family had just finished eating in the new shop. Fortunately, although there was no furniture in this room, the stove could not be removed. Everyone dusted off the dirt and wiped it, and then ate in the shop.

Bai Xin has been running around a lot these past few days. Every day, Zhuquemen goes back and forth to Panlou Street, and he has to go back and forth a few times. He dozed off during meals. Seeing how distressed he was, Mrs. Cao hurriedly ordered the aunt to spread the thick quilt On the ground, let him go upstairs to sleep.

When Zhang Dalang came, Bai Xin must cheer up and greeted him, "Zhang Dalang, it's so late, what's the matter?"

Zhang Dalang can also observe words and expressions, seeing Bai Xin's tired face, not daring to go around in circles, he bowed deeply, and asked straight to the point: "Bai Sanlang, your family is going to open a shop now, I wonder if the stall at Zhuquemen is still open? "

Today, other shopkeepers also asked similar questions, but the focus was on whether the goods were still available, but what Zhang Dalang asked was whether the stall was still open?

Bai Xin noticed the difference in clocks, and woke up after a nap. His mind was clear, and he looked Zhang Dalang up and down. He didn't answer immediately, but said slowly: "That area is lively, although it can't compare with Panlou Street. , the best thing is that the rent is cheap, and it’s only three pennies a month. You know, even the peddlers can earn hundreds of dollars a day, not to mention my fixed stall. Every month, it’s easy. Song can earn a dozen or twenty taels of silver."

When Zhang Dalang heard that he could earn so much, his heart felt as if he was scratching his heart with claws, and his palms were wet.

"To be honest, I don't want to abandon that stall, but..." He paused intentionally, "It's just that the family is short of manpower, and now that the shop is open, it's even more busy. I'm afraid I don't have time to take care of that stall. gone."

Zhang Dalang was overjoyed when he heard the words, his chest thumped, and his voice was like thunder, he said excitedly: "If so, Bai Sanlang, would you like to rent that place to me? I will sell your things as you did before! "

Bai Xin had rented the stall for a year. It is impossible for him to return the rest of the money because of his reasons. However, Bai Xin is not in a hurry. It is not difficult to find someone to watch the stall anyway. , let the eldest brother go there every day to set up a stall, but then again, now that Bai Xin has opened a shop, it can no longer be like before, with only five or six items, and it is necessary to make some new fragrances, which requires a lot of labor , you can't lose the big because of the small, Zhang Dalang came here for this matter today, just to take advantage of his heart.

Bai Xin pretended to be surprised, "You want to rent that stall for me?"

Zhang Dalang nodded, "I know your lease has not expired, I will pay for the remaining rent, and the rest will remain the same, selling your Tianxiangtang stuff."

Bai Xin pondered for a moment, then Fang nodded.

Seeing him nodding, Zhang Dalang couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"It's okay to give you the stall, but we have to make an agreement in three chapters."

Zhang Dalang listened carefully.

"Since you have rented a stall, you can't be like before. After taking my goods, you can't sell them and then return them to me. How much and what you want, you can weigh yourself. It's not that my stall can't continue. , but to save trouble, I will give it to you." Bai Xin had previously promised those peddlers that if they could not sell it every day, they could get it back and get a refund. This has not happened so far, but Bai Xin had to advance Let me just say, don't stop working because of Zhang Dalang's own reasons. After three to five months, you will be clamoring to return the things. Spices are also very particular about storage. In the end, the fragrance will go away or what? Anyway, let Bai Xin take responsibility instead.

Zhang Dalang thought for a while, seeing that Bai Xin's business was booming, there was no reason why he couldn't sell it, so he hesitated and agreed.

"Furthermore, since you are using the name of Tianxiangtang, you can't sell other things, or make some fake goods to make up for it. If you let me know, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Zhang Dalang knew the pros and cons of it, he didn't dare to smash the signboard, and he didn't dare to offend Bai Xin for the goods, so he nodded repeatedly, slapping his chest to promise that he wouldn't do such an unscrupulous thing.

"The last point is about the price..."

Zhang Dalang heard the most important thing, his eyes widened, and he raised his heart, fearing that he would increase the price temporarily.

"I will maintain the original price of the few things in my house. I will give you more money, but I will not increase the price even if I sell it in the shop. So if you sell it, don't increase the price randomly. Don't lower the price, otherwise, if you lower it, other shopkeepers will also lower it, and finally make my Tianxiangtang things worthless..."

"Yes yes yes!" Zhang Dalang listened, half relieved, half suspicious, thinking to himself that Bai Xin paid a lot of money to rent a front shop, and the items and prices remained the same, but no matter how much he sold every day, where would he be? The rent of the top bunk?He is a local, so he naturally knows how expensive the land in Panlou Street is.

"When I open a shop, I will definitely not only sell these things. I will definitely make new rouge, gouache and spices, but because of the relationship with customers, I will make some more precious and expensive things. If you don't want to sell those things , I will not force it on you. If you want to sell it at the stall, I will still give it to you at a discount of ten yuan, but you have to weigh it carefully. Don’t end up selling it at Zhuquemen because of the high price. It's all my fault."

Seeing that he had finished speaking, Zhang Dalang thought over these three points carefully, and he was not too harsh and difficult to ask, and he explained everything clearly.

Zhang Dalang's family is not rich, but fortunately, he bought goods from Bai Xin's family in the past few months, saved some money, sold some jewelry for his daughter-in-law, borrowed some from relatives, and finally got together 30 taels of silver. Among them, Bai Xin was given the rent of 20 stalls, and the rest of the money was used to get the goods.It was Zhang Dalang's first time doing a "big business", so he couldn't help being nervous. He had long been united with "Tianxiangtang" in his bones, and he wished that the signboard would get better and better. Besides, he was also smart. The clerk of Tianxiangtang works for Bai Xin, and specially asked Bai Xin to go out with him for a long time.

Everyone only thought that Zhang Dalang was really a helper of Bai Xin's family, seeing that the items and prices hadn't changed, they didn't care. What they looked for was the "signboard", not the seller.

Zhang Dalang worked for a day and a half, saw that the business was booming, and sold hundreds of Wen more than him carrying the burden and walking the streets. After a few days, he would be able to earn back the monthly stall money, and he knew that he was right. Bao.

Since he went to Bai Xin's house to pick up goods every day, by the way, he also dumped the things of other peddlers on the stall. The other peddlers remained the same, and they still came to Zhuquemen to pick up goods.

Those shopkeepers guessed the reason, and they couldn't help feeling envious of Zhang Dalang, and there were also those who were going to start looking for places to set up stalls, so it was no problem.
