MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 66

When it rained, it was as if the wind was leaking everywhere, and it was so cold that there was nowhere to fall.

Zhang Fangyuan was afraid that Xu He would be cold, so he went to the street and bought a hand warmer, and filled hot water in the restaurant for others to hold.

"It's only early spring that you'll be using this?"

"You can't be cold."

The corners of Xu He's mouth twitched, and he held the hand warmer, feeling warm in his heart: "Fortunately, no one at home came to see our opening today, otherwise they would be in a hurry."

Zhang Fangyuan's mentality is quite good: "Business is not achieved in a day, so don't come in a hurry."

Xu He nodded. In fact, he had no idea. The cost of opening the toothbrush shop this time was not a small sum. He had been calculating the shop, the pre-installation, and the preparation of the goods. It took fifty taels of silver to go out.

With such a large sum of money, a daughter-in-law in a rural household can marry a basket, let alone other things.

"Then can we have business today?"

Before Zhang Fangyuan could answer Xu He's pitiful words, three or two young faces walked in together. He patted Xu He's hand and said in a low voice, "What do you think?"

After speaking, he got up to greet the visitors.

"Several guest officials take a look at it casually. If there is anything that needs to be introduced, just say hello."

A few scholars held folding fans, nodded with Zhang Fangyuan, and wandered around the shops. The small shop is not big, there are no upstairs or downstairs, just a single shop that can be seen at a glance. Although the place is not big, there are many things.

Upon entering the door, there is a long waist-length display cabinet, extending all the way to the end of the shop, with evenly distributed small grids in between, among which are all small porcelain bottles that look like spices and powder. In addition, there is another standing cabinet at the head, inside which are two-inch long index finger-thick small brushes with fine bristles on the head.

Although there is no other shop like this in the city, a few scholars still recognized at a glance that the utensils used for brushing teeth were in the cabinets against the wall.

"May I take two out for our viewing?"

Zhang Fangyuan heard that he took three brushes from the cupboard for the scholars to watch. In fact, the teeth brushes put on display are for customers to experience, and those who want to buy will be picked up separately.

"This topcoat varies in softness."

"Exactly, the skins used are different." Zhang Fangyuan explained while taking out a jar of the cheapest saponin tooth powder from the waist cabinet, and Xu He brought a glass of water in due course. Zhang Fangyuan wet the back of his hands, put the toothbrush in the cup and soaked it lightly, then poured some saponin powder on the toothbrush, so that the powder would stick to the bristles of his teeth more easily.

The few scholars read it seriously, no less than hearing the master talk about the article they are most interested in in the academy. I saw Zhang Fangyuan gently rubbing the back of his hand with a toothbrush, and then rinsed the back of his hand clean. The dirty part was immediately restored to cleanliness, and there was still a scent of soap locust left.

"If you use this to brush your teeth, it's best to wash your teeth after dinner. Clean your teeth in time to avoid food residues left in your mouth overnight, which will damage your teeth in the long run. Use it again before meals in the morning, and your mouth will be fresh and smooth. Tu Ruolan, you can enjoy talking with people for a day."

Several scholars listened to Zhang Fangyuan's detailed explanation, and finally laughed out loud. The excited man ignored the cold weather, habitually opened the folding fan, and praised directly: "It's so wonderful!"

"In the ordinary day, Xiaosheng uses broken poplar branches dipped in salt, which can still remove the peculiar smell in the mouth, but how can poplar branches compare with this fine thing." Scholars like elegance and cleanliness most, and now encountering this good thing, it is unavoidable to find a treasure: " May I ask how much the teeth brushing that the shopkeeper said is worth?"

"It's divided into hair quality. Ordinary pig hair without carvings is fifty cents a piece, and horse hair without carvings is eighty cents for hard and soft. If there are engravings, add ten cents."

Xu He listened to Zhang Fangyuan's full-fledged quotation, and slightly mentioned that this price could not be called affordable.

A few scholars compared it, and they were more inclined to make flowers. Although the uncarved ones are novel, who can refuse to make a toothbrush with more beautiful flowers. Zhang Fangyuan went on to shoot the fire again: "This toothbrush can be used for three or two months, and it is a private thing, so it can only be used by yourself. Why don't you gentlemen be more generous to yourself, wouldn't it be better to choose the engraved one?" It is elegant and can better set off the charm of several people."

Wear thousands of clothes and flatter you but not wear them.

"Then I'll take a handful of carved plums." But the scholar was puzzled again: "But what's the difference in the quality of this hair?"

"Horse hair is very valuable. If the teeth are often red and swollen and easy to ooze blood, then choose horse mane hair. If the teeth are healthy and want to remove dirt as much as possible, then choose horse tail hair. Pig bristle is in between, but it is still not as good as horse hair. Mao, the use time is not as long as the two."

The scholar came to a sudden: "The weather is hot in summer, and the mouth often smells of blood, so I used a horse's mane."

"Haha, Brother Fu chooses Mei, then I will choose Lan."

The four of them gathered plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, and Zhang Fangyuan urged them to buy tooth powder.

Scholars are dazzled by the sight of whitening, teeth-healthy, breath-cleaning, fire-reducing...the so-called surgery has specialization, and the effects of tooth powder specialization are also different.

A small shop can be said to be an eye-opener for several scholars.

I bought toothbrushes and tooth powder without knowing it, and they were of different styles. When I checked out, I found out that I had spent several hundred cash. However, the scholar didn't complain about the high price, instead he said: "I will bring people to visit someday."

Zhang Fangyuan politely sent a few scholars out, and when he turned back, he saw Xu He counting the money. He raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Fangyuan: "A scholar spent at least three hundred cash, and the four of them together Is it so generous that a scholar spends 1,500 Wen?"

It's no wonder Xu He was surprised, the couple were considered small businessmen, but they used to do small business, and it took many days to earn the income of more than a thousand cash. After taking so many, the large span is a bit difficult to convert.

"Look at those scholars who are well-dressed, with brocade jade hanging around their waists, and they talk very well. They are all high-spirited, and they are not in a hurry to go home when it rains so heavily outside. Most of the scholars like this are the young masters of wealthy families in the city. Look He also has some fame and fame, and the lowest one is a child, and the family must cherish it even more, so why care about such a small amount of money. In the future, just look at this kind of money and slaughter it."

Xu He laughed: "We are a serious business, clearly marked the price, and never slaughtered people."

He held the money with a smile on his face: "Sure enough, the investment is ten times, and the money returned is also ten times." In time, after the money spent on opening the shop is earned back, he will be able to relax a bit.

Zhang Fangyuan sat in front of the counter and took a sip of water. It took a lot of time to sell things. In the early stage, he had to introduce them next to each other. But if the visitors are as generous as this wave of people, then the business will be easy. But seeing Xu He happy, he also became happy unconsciously in his heart, and it was nothing to waste more words.

"Today I also saw your ability to sell things. From now on, I will be in charge of explaining this girl brother, and you will be in charge of the man."

Zhang Fangyuan smiled and said, "It sounds like I took advantage."

The two brought lunch as usual, and found a restaurant to heat up the meal and eat it together in the shop.

Xu He was satisfied. He used to eat lunch outside the meat market when he was in the meat market, but now the two of them can stay in the shop and eat. When he was selling stewed vegetables at the stall before, on the way back from work, he would always watch those shopkeepers eating in there. He was envious, but now it was his turn, so he couldn't help but feel erratic.

The two of them intentionally kept the matter of setting up a shop in the city a secret. Few families knew about it, either their own family or those with business contacts, and everyone didn't talk about it outside. Those who communicate are also afraid that if there are too many people who know about it, someone will **** the business.

Besides, the village is busy paying the land rent now, and the two of them will have a clean life of going out early and returning late, just like selling pork at a stall in the city before.

After Xu He went to the city to guard the shop, the tea shed became a bit too busy. Seeing the end of the busy farming season, Zhang Fangyuan called his fourth aunt He Shi over to help, and paid five hundred cash a month.

Considering that his second aunt has been helping Baigan all the time, he still needs some money on hand that he can spend on his own. Many times, the couple cares about it, but they are too busy to care about it. After the two discussed it, they still gave Zhang Shiyue 300 Wen a month, not much more, but at least they could spend it on their own.

In this way, the main business of the couple is the teeth-brushing shop, and the tea shed will occasionally help out when they collect work in the city and go back to eat. Although the cost of wages is more than before, the two don't have to worry about this. The monthly money is counted as sitting and taking.

You don't even need to look at the pork stall. If Chen Si wants to make more money for his family, he will work hard. The more he earns, the more money Zhang Fangyuan mentioned in the 30% correspondingly.

Although the two shops can get more money every month than before, they can get money without any effort now.

Xu He calculated that in this way, the rent of the shops in the city would offset part of it, and the pressure on his shoulders would not be so heavy.

There are not many customers coming to Linglong shop in the past few days since it opened, not only their shop, but also the bustling Tianjie in the past.

The cloth pile rouge store in the restaurant next to the road is not doing well. The bosses facing the street are very experienced. Few people go out to have fun when the autumn rains are lingering. Business will pick up.

Occasionally, one or two strange customers come to their shop. The few customers introduce them for a long time. Although the visitors are scarce, they are all high-quality.

Almost everyone who enters the house empty-handed will go out with their things. Even if they only sell a pair of bristle bristle toothbrushes in a day, they will earn fifty cash. Cheap saponin tooth powder costs sixty renminbi.

These guests paid hundreds of Wen, and they always said that they would introduce them to them when they were parting.

Perhaps the shop has been open for a short time, and I have never seen returning customers come to the door again. Xu He felt that the guests in this area were very polite and courteous, so he was embarrassed to make such a fuss.

This makes me look like a black merchant. The saponin is usually bought for a few pennies in a big bag, but it is just made into powder and filled with other materials, and the price is ten times higher. How can people from poor families not suck? tongue.

At this time, Zhang Fangyuan will say that he is stupid. Although it is not expensive to buy saponins, it is not expensive to process the saponins for drying and grinding? Don't rent the shop anymore?

He was speechless, and when the people from the county government came to urge to pay the commercial tax, under the huge commercial tax, he no longer felt uneasy.
