At noon, shopkeeper Lu stayed at Qiao's house for dinner. The cook cooked six dishes, and she wiped out half of them.

"Your cook's craftsmanship is really good, it's as good as yours."

"Of course, when we live together, you can eat it every day."

"The day Xin'er is hired, can't I move in?"

"It's August, and it's the rainy season after it's covered. Why don't you have to dry it out? Buy furniture and blast it dry? Otherwise, it will be too humid to live in, and it will hurt your health."

"That's right, when the building is almost finished, let's go and have a look together?"

"no problem."

Lu Sanniang also hopes that the house will be built earlier, so that Ruxin can get married from there. Although it is not her own house, it is the same to marry from the master's house, as long as the scenery is good.

On April 15th, the decoration of the shop was finally completed.

Qiao Mai came to the shop, looked at the big plaque on the door, "Qiao Ji snack shop,"

The gold lettering on the black background is shiny, and when you enter the inside, the shelves are empty, but they are cleaned very clean.

There is a circle of counters in front. When customers come, they can buy goods at a close distance, and the guys will pick them up for them at the counter.

There is a front desk at the door, which is the counter where the shopkeeper is.

She had prepared the goods a long time ago and asked the shopkeeper to watch at the shop. She took two assistants and five errands, and began to move things from the warehouse at home to the shop.

Seven people moved back and forth more than a dozen times, and they were still transported back and forth with trolleys, which shows how much stock there is in the warehouse.

These goods were all moved to the warehouse behind the shop, and the shopkeeper personally counted them into the account books.

Qiao Mai pointed at him and told him the purchase price of these goods.

No matter what, let the world know that these goods of hers were not brought by strong winds. If someone is interested, shopkeeper Niu can tell.

In fact, all the goods didn't cost a penny, and they were all net profits. She knew it better than anyone else.

In addition to the few items sold on the beach before, many varieties of fruits, vegetables and roasted seeds and nuts have been added.

It will be May in half a month, and many places in the south are producing fruits and vegetables, so the fruits and vegetables in her space have a good reason to sell them.

Shopkeeper Niu had also seen the world. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't say anything.

On April 16th and 17th, they hired people to build a beautiful and sturdy pergola in front of the door, and placed exquisite tables and chairs under it for the passing merchants to rest temporarily.

The small shop has free tea, although the tea is not very high-end, but it does not cost money.

Of course, displaying these items is also for business. Some wealthy merchants will visit the shop after resting here, and buy some of the things they like.

Especially when the weather is hot, you can cut open a watermelon and eat a few pieces, or buy some dried fruits and roasted seeds and nuts to eat on the road.

In short, Qiao Mai asked shopkeeper Niu to arrange all this for the business of the shop.

The shop was packed and opened on April 18th, the day of death.

The sound of firecrackers sounded, and the old diners in the town came to join in.

After seeing so many fresh fruits and vegetables, with the mentality of trying something new, no one was empty-handed.

Shopkeeper Lu and Mayor Qian also came over, and when they entered the shop, they looked at the dazzling array of goods, and their eyes widened with joy.

Although the two of them didn't give any presents, they held the show together and bought a lot of things. Naturally, they didn't miss any money.

Shopkeeper Tong from Jingtai Restaurant also came over. Seeing so many kinds of vegetables, he immediately wrapped up the vegetables on the shelves.

That green vegetable without any worm eyes, he couldn't walk when he saw it.

Chives come in bundles of one catty, clean and without any soil, and bundles of one hundred cents are expensive, but you have to buy them.

Cucumbers, depending on the root, cost 30 cents a piece, and two are almost a catty, which is really not expensive compared to leeks.

Garlic sprouts, a bundle of 100 Wen per catty, green onions, a bundle of 1 catty, 100 Wen per catty, and fresh ginger, 100 Wen per catty. When the shopkeeper of the pharmacy heard about it, he sent someone to buy ten catties at once.

Fresh garlic costs one hundred renminbi per catty, and she sells all the vegetables that have ever appeared in Fucheng.

The price is really expensive, the poor can't afford it, they eat cabbage and radishes, and the nobles buy it back, but only the master eats it, and the servants have no chance to eat it.

Boiled corn, roasted sweet potatoes, spiced quail eggs, spiced edamame, spiced fried melon seeds, salt and pepper peanuts, fried chestnuts, watermelon, melon, strawberries, ice cubes, etc. in the store are still at the old prices and have not changed.

She also took out the pancakes she made years ago, bought a new house this year, and now that she has space, she will make many more when the season comes.

Not only these, for example, after the leek flowers come out, she will also make some leek flower sauce, anyway, she does whatever comes down.

Don't sell it when it's cheap after it's ready, and sell it at a high price in spring and winter.

Moreover, Qiao Mai gave the shopkeeper Niu an order to sell a certain amount every day until they are sold out. For example, there are twenty bundles of leeks a day, and they will be gone when they are sold out.

Shopkeeper Niu asked puzzledly, "Boss, why don't you sell more?"

"Scarcity is the most expensive thing, if you want to buy it, why is it so expensive?"

Shopkeeper Niu thought for a while, "What do you mean?"

On the first day the shop opened, the shopkeeper Niu was frightened by the turnover. A small snack sold for more than one hundred taels a day.

Excluding the purchase cost, you can earn twenty or thirty taels of silver.

Such an inconspicuous shop can earn nearly a thousand taels of silver a month.

It's just that the people in the town come to buy it. It opened the day before, and many merchants who come and go don't know about it. If things go on like this, then what about this shop?

Shopkeeper Niu couldn't imagine, let alone raising more than a dozen people now, it would be no problem to add more than a dozen more.

Speaking of Qiao Mai opening a shop, someone asked, has Mrs. Qiao paid off her debt?

Shopkeeper Lu has already answered, "It's paid off, and now the shop belongs to Mrs. Qiao."

"What is the house built behind the shop?"

"It belongs to my Lu family. She will live with me in the future."

"It seems that shopkeeper Lu has made a lot of money all these years?"

"Yes, thanks to everyone, business is going well. My daughter is getting married, so I have to leave the new house, right?"

In this case, she said it after discussing with Qiao Mai. It is true that the debt is paid off, but Qiao Mai still lives in Lu's house.

It was just to prevent those people from coming to make trouble. The Qiao and Yuan families must not be reconciled. The Tian family has no reason to come and make trouble. Tian Sanzhuang doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. If he comes back alive, I believe there will be a struggle.

The Ming Dynasty conscripted troops every year, and the general enlistment period was five years. After five years, those who were willing to stay in the army were given a monthly reward, and those who were unwilling could go home, and the court also issued a certain amount of silver.

Most people, when the five-year period is up, will come back.

Tian Sanzhuang has been gone for almost two years, and she will become stronger within these three years, not only economically, but also forcefully.

Now her skills are good against ordinary people, but not so good against martial arts people.

Thinking of her internal strength and mentality, she was worried, and when she saw Miss Wang next time, she asked her to inquire about it and see if it would be okay to buy it with silver.

Her body has recovered, and the skills of her previous life have returned, and it is imminent to practice inner strength and mental methods.

It's just that she has been very hesitant, and she doesn't want people to know that she is practicing inner strength, so she hasn't spoken to Miss Wang for a long time.

After the store opened, she would go out every five days to "buy goods"

For the rest of the time, I will stay with Ling'er at home, doing embroidery during the day, and returning to the space to plant the land and stock up at night.

With no time to cook, do the laundry, or watch the kids, she has more time.

The news about Qiao Mai's opening of a shop spread across Qiao's house within two days.

After Qiao Shicheng and his wife heard this, they were angry for several days. They had just recovered when they heard that Qiao Mai had already paid off the money from shopkeeper Lu and got the deed of sale and the IOU.

The two passed out immediately, and Qiao Jiang Qiaohe and the others pinched them for a long time before choking them awake.

Mrs. Qiao made a lot of money selling goods, and everyone was jealous. She owed money before and wanted to pay it back, and the Qiao family was jealous but didn't dare to hum.
