Peerless little Shennong

Chapter 1170 Business Planning
Through asking Liu Daniu, Lu Xiaobei got some news about Zhang Quan.

What this kid said last night was not deceiving. He is indeed an orphan. A thief is also very moral. At least he will not steal money from the poor. All he targets are villains like Lei Yuanwai. Just focus on this point. At least in terms of character, Zhang Quan is still a moral thief.

There is a way to steal, and Zhang Quan did it.

After learning about Zhang Quan's information, Lu Xiaobei's plan to make money was almost finished.

In the evening, Lu Xiaobei packed up and came outside the drunk building.

Zhang Quan arrived as scheduled and changed out of the night clothes he wore last night. This guy is a young man in his twenties. He looks quite energetic, but his figure is a little thin and he looks very weak.

"Brother, I'm here!" Zhang Quan clasped his fists and said.

"Follow me!" Lu Xiaobei took Zhang Quan to the racecourse to buy two horses with the silver coins from last night, and the two began to stroll around Wangu Town on horseback.

Wangu Town is very large, equivalent to a county seat in Huaxia Kingdom.

The two of them rode their horses for an hour before they finished visiting the entire Wangu Town.

On the way, he passed the ruined temple that Zhang Quan mentioned, but Lu Xiaobei didn't go in to check it out. He had already learned about Zhang Quan from Liu Daniu.

After strolling around Wangu Town, horses need to rest, and people also need to rest.

Riding a horse is the most frustrating thing.

Especially the butt, people who have been marching and fighting for a long time have a deep understanding.

This horse is not so easy to ride.

Lu Xiaobei and Zhang Quan found a small tavern, and gave the waiter a silver coin to take the horse down and feed it.

Sitting in the tavern, Lu Xiaobei rubbed his buttocks and said, "But it killed me!"

Zhang Quan got acquainted with Lu Xiaobei, and found that this man was very appetizing, very friendly, not as arrogant and domineering as other practitioners, and there was an indescribable sense of mystery about him.

It's as if this person doesn't belong to Zhenwu Continent!
That's right, this idea finally came to Zhang Quan's mind.

"Brother, we've been shopping here for two hours, so it's no wonder we don't panic!" Zhang Quan said angrily.

"I should have hired a carriage if I knew it earlier, how comfortable it is!" Lu Xiaobei said with a smile.

"That's not the point, the point is that you took me around the entire Wangu Town, brother, and we didn't do anything!" Zhang Quan said.

"Didn't you do anything?" Lu Xiaobei chuckled, and called the waiter in the shop to quickly serve drinks and a large plate of beef.

There are pure drinks in this place, but the alcohol content of general drinks is not high, which is very thirst-quenching.

Pairing the wine with beef, Lu Xiaobei finally experienced the feeling of a Liangshan hero Wu Erlang.

"I really didn't do anything, it's just a day trip around town!" Zhang Quan dragged on what Lu Xiaobei had said to Zhang Quan before he set off.

"I'm a quick learner. Have you discovered the characteristics of this town?" Lu Xiaobei began to teach Zhang Quan.

"What are the characteristics? Some places are sparsely populated, while others are densely populated..."

Zhang Quan talked about the characteristics he thought, but they were all wrong.

Lu Xiaobei waved his hand, took out his chopsticks, dipped in the wine in the bowl, made a circle on the table, and then drew four lines from the circle.

"You see, this circle is the town center of Wangu Town, and the four directions that go out are the passenger flow. If the things in this circle want to be sold, the residents of these four directions have to gather here. You have Have you ever thought that residents in these four directions can buy things without going out?" Lu Xiaobei asked with a smile.

"Can you buy things without going out?" Zhang Quan thought for a moment, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "You mean to hire those practitioners who fly imperial objects to deliver things to these residents? That's impossible!"

Zhang Quan waved his hands again and again and said, "Those cultivators would not do this kind of rough work. They only have cultivation in their minds, and they look down on this kind of rough work at all!"

"Why are you looking for a cultivator to give something? You can't give it?" Lu Xiaobei asked rhetorically.

"Yes! The key is why should I give it away? They can come to the town to buy things by themselves, so why should I bother?" Zhang Quan said seriously.

This answer was on the minds of many residents of Wangu Town.

Why do you need someone to give you something you can buy yourself?

Even if I bought too many things to transport, I can just hire a carriage, why bother to find someone to deliver it to me?

Of course you have to pick and choose when buying things. What if you find someone else to buy something fake?
It is more reliable to choose some meat and vegetables by yourself.

Of course Lu Xiaobei knew this truth.

This is also the difference between Zhenwu Continent and the modern society of Huaxia Kingdom. There is no internet, no mobile phones, and no product information. Otherwise, everyone can choose their favorite products online.

So in the early stage, Lu Xiaobei's business scope was faced with the threshold of information transmission, so his business scope had to be reduced, and those items that needed to be selected by himself were discarded.

After solving the problem of information transmission, we will gradually expand the scope of business.

"I've considered what you said. We won't send items that need to be handpicked for the time being, but I've already thought of a solution. Let me ask you, can you make money by sending items?" Lu Xiaobei asked.

"Delivering things can definitely make money, but the money is earned by the coachmen. Next to the horse farm in the center of Wangu Town is the place where the coachmen gather. It takes one silver coin to hire a carriage. Donkey carts are cheap, and 20 copper coins That's fine." Zhang Quan replied.

"How many times can they deliver in a day?" Lu Xiaobei continued to ask.

"Ordinary people can't afford a carriage, and most of them are from wealthy families. It would be good if they can run twice a day." Zhang Quan is quite familiar with this matter.

"The route planning is not done well. All the drivers are trying to earn money for themselves, no matter how far they travel. If the route is specified and a driver is responsible for a route, then he can save time and make an extra trip. We All we need to do is to make precise routes, deliver accurately, and win with time and efficiency!" Lu Xiaobei said eloquently.

"This..." Zhang Quan was speechless for a moment.

He didn't have Lu Xiaobei's brain at all, so he never thought about the business of delivering things.

"But how do we pick up jobs? Do we go to the stronghold every day to wait for jobs like those coachmen?" Zhang Quan asked.

"No, the preliminary work is the key point. Address arrangement, merchant arrangement, salesman's time arrangement, etc.!" Lu Xiaobei said a bunch of terms that Zhang Quan didn't understand.

Seeing that Zhang Quan seemed to be listening to a scripture from heaven, Lu Xiaobei could only end with one sentence, saying: "Just do as I tell you!"

"I understand this sentence!" Zhang Quan said honestly.

Lu Xiaobei laughed and called Zhang Quan to eat.

By the time the two finished eating and drinking, it was already midnight.

Lu Xiaobei gave Zhang Quan twenty silver coins, and asked him to hire someone tomorrow to buy a lot of paper and pens. The request was very simple, to draw a map of the entire Wangu Town, down to every street.

This business volume is very large, but it is the most basic task of the express delivery business, which is to be familiar with the terrain.

And Lu Xiaobei's plan to make money was also revealed.

The establishment of the largest logistics center in Wangu Town starts with the city express.

But this is only the first step of the whole plan, and he will do more things with logistics in the next step.

Such as the establishment of information stations, such as merchants' advertisements and so on.

Lu Xiaobei has the state of life of modern people in his mind, and doing business is not difficult for him.

In the evening of the next day, Zhang Quan and Lu Xiaobei met again.

It was the same bistro as last night.

Zhang Quan dictated the work done today.

One-third of the topographic map of Wangu Town was completed, because Zhang Quan hired limited manpower to register the specific streets.

While drinking, Lu Xiaobei's mind became active.

He asked Zhang Quandao: "Who is the mayor of Wangu Town?"

"What is a mayor?"

Zhang Quan was dumbfounded, there is no such thing as mayor in Zhenwu Continent.
