Chapter 252: Learn to do business with an open mind

Next, Shen Ru first told Mrs. Yu not to inquire about the open space around the ranch. She asked Cui Xi to find a shop in the city. It didn't need to be a too busy place. An open yard would be best, and a low bungalow would be fine.

"Miss, what kind of shop do you want to open?"

Cuixi didn't understand. Aren't the shops along the street better?

"I just thought that if there was a huge crowd at that time, there would be no place for people to sit along the street."

Shen Ru said: "Of course, the ones facing the street and with a backyard are the best. In short, when there is no room to sit in the shop, there are no tables lined up in the courtyard."

"Miss, is there such delicious food?" Cuixi was surprised, "Even if I can't sit down, why not open a restaurant?"

"No, the quality of the restaurant is too high. The store I want to open this time is like a tavern, but in addition to wine, it also sells food."

After hearing what Shen Ru said, Cui Xi understood.

"Okay, Miss, I will help you find a suitable shop."

Playing skewers on a hot day is a bit torturous, so now I'm looking for a good shop. With simple decorations, when the autumn breeze comes, the sheep are fat again, so it's time to open.

Shen Ru's idea was perfect, and what was even more gratifying was that the profit of the Stone Candle Workshop had exceeded a thousand taels of silver.

Large quantities of oil lamps and stone candles are transported to the southwest. Whether it is to make war fortune or to drive up prices, this is her share. She can sell them for whatever price she likes. It is regarded as earning money from Cui Ti. so happy.

"It's rare for the three of us to eat together!"

Yan Shaoqing was the host and made an appointment with Shen Ru and Xiao Wujin to have a drink at the restaurant together.

"As for Shen Ru, making money will happen sooner or later. Xiao Wujin, as for you, spend your money leisurely. You don't want Shen Ru to support you in the future!"

After drinking some wine, Yan Shaoqing began to talk too much.

"After the major things at hand are settled, I will start the marriage with Aru."

Xiao Wujin looked at Yan Shaoqing's broken mouth, his expression softened, and the tiredness between his brows relaxed.

"A big event, what big event? The rivers will be dug, the people will be lifted out of poverty, and the border troops will have enough food and grass?"

Yan Shaoqing asked back: "The river can be dug, but the last two, Xiao Wujin, I don't know if they can realize it in your lifetime."

"Yan Shaoqing, if you don't speak, no one will think you are mute. Aren't you well-informed? How is the battle situation?"

"On the way out of Liangzhou, no one is blocking the merchants, and it goes smoothly everywhere."

Yan Shaoqing said: "Whether it is the imperial court or the rebels, they seem to be very generous to merchants, but that's right. There are so many things waiting for the caravan to welcome them."

"Shen Ru's stone candles are selling well."

Shen Ru smiled: "That's why your caravan is so powerful."

"That's right, my Yan family's caravan can go to any corner of the world."

"Besides, fine salt..." Yan Shaoqing paused and glanced at Shen Ru. He never knew that Xiao Wujin's money came from Shen Ru.

Yan Shaoqing thought about it in his mind. After all the fine salt was sold, excluding the 12 taels of silver, and the Yan family took part of it, Xiao Wujin would only have 5000+ silver.

This seems to be a large amount, but for Xiao Wujin, it may not be enough to fill any hole.

"The demand for fine salt has always been great. As I said before, the price can double several times when the rebels arrive. But Xiao Wujin, don't you plan to buy some more?"

"If you don't give me the money, how can I buy the next batch?"

Xiao Wujin asked, "How about your Yan family buy some?"

"I knew you were plotting against me. You are the only one who can make fine salt, right?"

Yan Shaoqing glared at Xiao Wujin.

"When the court is stabilized and I am still the governor, I want to make the fine salt refining method public and advise the court to formulate a salt merchant system." When Xiao Wujin spoke, he looked at Shen Ru.

"You want the price of salt to come down?"

Shen Ru instantly understood what Xiao Wujin meant.

Xiao Wujin nodded, and then said: "Salt is the most common thing for the people, and it is even more important for the people who work in agriculture. Only by eating salt can they have the strength to work. But now, they can only buy some coarse salt .”

"It would be great if fine salt could be well controlled so that ordinary people could buy fine salt for a few pennies!"

Shen Ru nodded and said, in the later generations of her life, salt was really the most common thing!
"Oh, you two are so noble!"

Yan Shaoqing laughed and said: "Shen Ru, do you know that there is no businessman without a traitor?"

"It sounds like you are so treacherous."

Shen Ru said nonchalantly: "There are many ways to make money. Don't worry so much about people's livelihood matters!"

"I care, what do I care about? Did my Yan family make a lot of money here?"

Yan Shaoqing said angrily: "I'm not here for you two."

"I know, Master Yan is so chivalrous and courageous towards his friends that he cuts both sides of his sleeves!"

Shen Ru smiled and said, "I still want to say that there are many ways to make money. Then you can check out my tavern."

"Instead of opening a restaurant, open a tavern?"

Yan Shaoqing frowned, "The wine shops on this street may not be profitable."

"Do you remember the roast lamb in Sand Dune City?" Shen Ru's eyes immediately lit up as he spoke.

"I'm going to start making skewers in Liangzhou City. I can make skewers while drinking. It's very delicious just thinking about it."

"Hehe, hehe, where can you buy the various spices from the Western Regions? If you are in the customs, do you have everything?"

Yan Shaoqing obviously felt that this was unreliable.

There are many seeds in Shenru space, but I have never had the chance to plant them.

"I read through ancient books and found that many spices can be substituted. For example, wood ginger seeds can replace pepper, fennel, star anise, cinnamon, etc., and the dried tea on the mountain can be found one by one. Then you will wait. Look!"

Shen Ru said with confidence.

Xiao Wujin listened to Shen Ruyan Shaoqing's words and suddenly reached out to hold Shen Ru.

"Aru, I believe you."

"Huh?" Xiao Wujin suddenly held hands, making Shen Ru stunned.

"I would like to be the first guest in your tavern."

Shen Ruyan's trip to the Western Regions with Yan Shaoqing made him feel very delicious!

"Tsk, tsk!" Yan Shaoqing saw Xiao Wujin's jealous behavior and felt quite speechless.

"Okay, I'll wait and see. If you can make me think that you have the eight-point, no, six-point taste of that Dune City BBQ, I will give you 1000 taels!"

Yan Shaoqing has so much money that he has nowhere to spend it?
"Okay, Xiao Wujin, I'll give you 500 taels when the time comes." Shen Ruchang smiled at Xiao Wujin, "You have to believe me, I'm very powerful!"

"Well, I know you are very powerful."

"That's enough for you two. Also, Shen Ru, do you think my words are falling on deaf ears? There are so many women in our Yan family. If you give our Yan family ten pounds of goat's milk every day, I will send the money."

Yan Shaoqing deliberately said with a straight face: "Young lady wants to learn how to do business, so she should be humble and accept the teachings!"

"Okay, ten pounds a day, I'll write it down." Shen Ru suppressed a smile, isn't Yan Shaoqing so awkward?
