Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 382
After Li Lijun hinted that he was not short of money, Grandpa Qiu San was still calm, but Qiu Xiaoji had already shown a look of joy.

The owner is not short of money, and does not expect the business in the store to flourish, which means that their grandchildren will have a much easier life in the future.They only need to complete their assigned work, and they can focus on themselves at other times.Such a life without worrying about food and clothing, and having a place to practice safely is good enough for them.

Although Grandpa Qiu San didn't have any special expression, he had already asked Li Lijun very carefully about the psychological price of each material in her purchase list.

This is also a hint that she needs to leave a sum of money in the store for the guys to use when buying supplies.If she doesn't stay in the store for a long time, this Lingshi will be set aside no matter what.

Li Lijun has no objection to this.She first gave Third Grandpa Qiu a small bag of spirit stones, probably only a hundred or so.Not a lot, but it should be enough for two days.

Her small shop has just been tidied up now, it is impossible to open today, at least until tomorrow.But now the opening time of this season's market is more than half, and there are two or three days left, how much business can the newly opened trial store do?This spirit stone is probably about the same.But she will bring back some spirit stones later, and after the market is closed, there will be trades between stores in the market.The official opening of the store may have to wait until the next quarter.

But it doesn't matter, what Li Lijun cares more about is how many supplies this small shop and the two hired monks can help her collect.

After leaving the spirit stone and explaining the psychological price, Li Lijun helped to adjust the layout of the store, and she left first.

The grandparents of the Qiu family had to continue tidying up the accommodation upstairs, and she had to go back to Hu County.When she went out earlier, she made an agreement with Erhong to go back to the rented courtyard to discuss follow-up affairs.Now that she bought the small shop, she naturally wanted to bring Er Hong over for a walk.

Li Lijun went back to the backyard first, closed the small door that led directly to the street outside along with the small alley between the two shops, and put a new lock on it before leaving the shop door.The shopkeepers of several nearby shops only needed to look around to see her leaving the cultivation market, and they all talked about it in private.

Although the shops in the Xiuzhen Bazaar will inevitably change owners every few years, only a few "time-honored brands" can last for tens of hundreds of years, but they can be bought at a young age like Li Lijun. A new owner of an industry is still rare.Such a shopkeeper is usually either from a good family background or an extraordinary status. Anyway, it is not something that ordinary monks can afford.The neighbors around were not familiar with her, and they couldn't help whispering when they thought that they might spend a long time with such a mysterious master in the future.

After a while, someone went to other familiar stores to find someone to inquire about Li Lijun's background and temper.In the entire comprehension market, not every shop has dealt with Li Lijun, but most people have seen that the little girl is familiar with Mrs. Wang, shopkeeper Zheng and Taoist Xuanying.These three are all people with a lot of background, how can they be ordinary casual cultivators if they get on good terms with them?How could ordinary casual cultivators follow Ge Zhenren of Zhenxian Temple to restore the market space?Is she planning to live here for a long time, or is she just investing in a property and finding someone else to take care of the business?What kind of attitude should we use to deal with her?

At the same time, there were two other people I went to Li Lijun's small shop to ask two new employees, one old and one young, what kind of business is this small shop going to do?Will it compete with the nearby stores?Will it steal everyone's business?Will it help their business?
Li Lijun's shop, the previous owner opened a cassock shop, and there is also a cassock shop diagonally opposite. The two seem to be competitors.But in fact, the cassock shop opened by the former owner mainly sells leather armor, leather boots, leather protective gear and other items made of various monster skins. Strictly speaking, it is a leather goods shop.What really competes with his family is the real leather goods store next door.However, the cassock shop mainly sells women's clothing, and occasionally sells a few men's clothing, mainly casual clothes or dresses, and rarely uses monster fur, but they can live in peace with his family.

But now, the leather cassock store has changed owners, and the leather goods store is beginning to worry that the new store will continue to compete with his family for business. The owner of the cassock shop is also afraid that the new owner Li Lijun is a woman, and she will compete with her in the women's clothing market, so she must pay more attention. of.Knowing that Li Lijun opened a grocery store, the main purpose was to buy spiritual materials. Although they might sell cassocks, it was not the main business and would not affect their own business. Said that everyone is a neighbor, just say hello if you have anything to do, don't be polite.Otherwise, the shop owner is a young lady, and the clerks are old and young, and they all look very weak. What if they encounter unreasonable tricksters? !
Third Grandpa Qiu put on an old-fashioned appearance, said a few words of thanks, and coaxed the two shopkeepers away happily. Stove clean.

The owner said that he would not come back tonight, but the market is at its busiest at night.There is nothing to sell in their store anyway, even if they open the door, they mainly buy supplies.Their grandparents and grandchildren are old and young, and they clean out their own houses first, cook a meal, and then have the strength to welcome guests.

Qiu Xiaoji didn't understand why his old man showed such an old and weak appearance: "Didn't you teach me that making outsiders think you are weak will only make them bully us even more?"

Grandpa Qiu San smiled and said: "Silly girl, today is different. In the mine under the Zhenxian Temple, if Ah Weng didn't act stronger, others would definitely bully him. But now we have arrived at the cultivation center in Guanzhong. Bazaar, this is the place where your Uncle Guan supervises. How dare outsiders bully you and me? Our colleagues are spread all over the stores. If someone comes to make trouble, Ah Weng will say hello. Naturally, some people will come to help us. But you Uncle Master tried his best to bring all of us here, and won us a place to live in a stable place. We should be more considerate of him. We are all fellow disciples of Uncle Guan. If you refuse to live in peace with others, other shopkeepers will think that we are too domineering, and they will worry that Uncle Guan is partial to us and dealing with things unfairly. If someone feels angry, they can report to the main altar of Zhenxian Temple and let people take it away. You go to Guan Shishu's errand, but tell him what to do?"

Without the errands of real people in Guan Chu Supervisory City, it would be extremely difficult for them, the old folks in Lingguang Valley, to live a stable life in the cultivation market.

Qiu Xiaoji immediately understood the meaning of his grandfather's words: "So that's it! We are all classmates brought by Master Guan. We usually act a little weaker and easy to bully, so it seems that it is reasonable for Master Guan to take care of us. .And if we get along well with our neighbors, others won’t deliberately criticize us.”

Third Grandpa Qiu nodded with a smile: "One more thing. Just now, the boss made it very clear that our store does not seek a prosperous business, the important thing is to help the boss receive what she needs. Even so, we can't just count Customers who come to the market will take the initiative to deliver things to the door, and they have to deal with people from other shops. As long as we get to know each other well, we will be well-informed and know that other houses have received suitable items, so we can go to the door immediately Buy it. Isn’t this hatchback cheap?”

Qiu Xiaoji suddenly realized: "Ah Weng is so smart, I thought of this so quickly."

Third Grandpa Qiu smiled without saying a word.Where is this?Work hard, the benefits they can get don't stop there!
