I have a seal of two worlds

Chapter 20 Sweet Foods

Lu Zheng thought for two days, but he still didn't sell anything from Hyundai.

After a month, another "heirloom" was immediately presented, which is really eye-catching.

In comparison, opening an ordinary sugar shop and selling some sugar that is available in this era is not so eye-catching.

Lu Zheng inspected these past few days and it is very clear that the brown sugar and rock sugar sold in the sugar shop in the county are exactly the same as the modern ones.

That being the case, it's easy.

First of all, don't even think about buying a shop. Lu Zheng first went to Chengnan Dental Shop, rented a shop at a price of three pennies per month, and hired two shopkeepers to stay in the shop.

The decorative utensils in the shop are still usable, and Lu Zheng didn't tidy them up again, he just ordered a plaque in the lacquerware shop.

Dessert vegetarian.

Then, I went back to Hyundai and bought a hundred catties of rock sugar online. After the courier arrived, I unpacked it and brought it to Dajingchao in bulk to replenish the supply of goods for the store.

"Boss, this is all good icing, good stuff!"

"Boss, do we only sell icing sugar in our store, not caramel?"

Icing sugar, made from sugar cane juice, is the top grade of sugar; caramel, made from fermented and saccharified grain, is relatively cheap.

Therefore, in ancient times, ordinary people bought snacks for their children, basically caramel, and frosting, which was rarely bought once a year.

However, the Dajing Dynasty was in its prime, and Lu Zheng saw that the lives of the people in Tonglin County were decent, and their purchasing power should be stronger than that in the parallel world.

There is nothing to do if you are not strong, Lu Zheng can't open a sugar factory now, the price of modern caramel and maltose is much more expensive than rock sugar.

"Boss, how do we sell our frosting?"

The two shopkeepers are both natives of Tonglin County, but their families are poor, so they came out early to help make money.

The one whose surname is Shi is called Shitou, and the one whose surname is Ma ranks third.

"It's the same as other sugar shops, one or two fifty coins." Lu Zheng said.

Calculated from the purchasing power of grain, one penny in the Dajing Dynasty is equivalent to one yuan in modern times, and the rock sugar that Lu Zheng brought from the modern day is five yuan per catty, which is sold at Dajing Dynasty for 500 yuan per catty.

A hundredfold profit!

Top unscrupulous capitalist!

"Okay, our icing is much better than those shops that mix sugar with stone honey. With the same price, the business must be good."

"Yeah." Lu Zheng nodded, "If the goods are not enough, please tell me in advance. I purchased the goods from other places and it will take time."

Shitou and Ma San immediately nodded with a clear face. This is the business secret of the boss, and of course they can't inquire about it at will.

……

Lu Zheng didn't pick any auspicious days. After everything was ready, he found a team of actors the next day and opened with drums and gongs.

"Sweets Zhai is open! Only icing is sold! Excellent icing!"

"Three days before the opening! Dessert Zhai has a big discount, the best icing, one tael is only [-] cents!"

After all, it is a newly opened sugar shop, and it has to increase its popularity and attract business to compete with other sugar shops in the county.

Lu Zheng doesn't sell caramel, and he doesn't want to fight a price war to avoid offending too many people.

But it can't be opened in such an obscure manner, otherwise, I don't know how long it will take to attract customers and retain all kinds of repeat customers.

So Lu Zheng thought about it, and casually took out the big bargain for the opening of the bad street.

It is impossible to test when the activity of opening a big bargain started. It is said that it existed in ancient times. However, Lu Zheng saw a restaurant open in Tonglin County, but he did not see the other party's discount promotion.

If so, let's start with me.

After all, it's not a high-tech thing, it's just the most primitive idea to attract customers, and it won't be looked at highly by others.

Maybe Dajingchao has already used it in other places?

From Anfangli, the sweet food shop opened bustlingly, but there are still many people watching and few people buying.

After all, Sweet Food Zhai only sells rock candy, not maltose, and the price of one or two to forty yuan is still too expensive compared to the one or twenty yuan of maltose.

But Lu Zheng is also satisfied, as long as he can make money, he can make ends meet here, after all, he doesn't expect to make a lot of money with this sweet food shop.

"Shopkeeper, weigh me two ounces of sugar and wrap it up. Make two servings!"

"Dude, weigh me ten cents!"

"Mom, I want candy!"

As time went by, the store began to have continuous business.

However, there were two shopkeepers, one was weighing and packing, the other was collecting money and delivering, and they were both busy, so Lu Zheng just wandered around the store and watched, and didn't help.

"Sister, look, there is a newly opened candy shop here, I want to eat candy!"

"You just ate two pieces of rose shortbread and a nine-layer sugar cake. Why do you still want sugar?"

"No, no, I want candy, so my sister will buy it for me! I haven't had candy for a long time!"

As the voice approached, Lu Zheng saw two figures approaching.

Hand in hand, a tall and graceful figure is very graceful, and a petite figure is bouncing around.

Lu Zheng's eyes lit up, there are two beauties, no, there are two beauties, one big and one small.

The older one looks gentle and demure, with an orchid-like air, while the younger one looks lively, lovely, and full of vigor. The eyebrows and eyes of the two are somewhat similar, and they are obviously a pair of sisters.

When Lu Zheng saw the two, of course the two also saw Lu Zheng.

However, although Lu Zheng was standing in the store, he obviously didn't do anything, so the beauty didn't talk to Lu Zheng, but just said to Shi Shi, "Shopkeeper, just weigh half and two candies for me."

"Gudu, okay, okay."

Shitou had never talked to such a fairy-looking lady before, but now his face was blushing, and he just lowered his head and weighed candy.

The big beauty smiled, counted out twenty copper coins from her purse, and put them on the counter.

On the other side, after the stone was weighed and packed, before handing it to Ma San, the little beauty snatched it and held it in her arms without letting go.

The big beauty gave Lu Zheng an embarrassed smile, then pulled the little beauty out of the crowd and walked into the distance.

"Hey, this candy is so sweet, sister, you can eat it too."

"Well, it's delicious, I'll give it to Dad and Mom when I go back home."

Lu Zheng looked away, saying that it was the first time he saw such a beautiful ancient woman in Tonglin County.

Well, except for the painted skin, which is not human!
……

One day passed, Sweet Food Zhai sold seven catties of sugar, the income was close to three pennies, and the rent was recovered in one day.

Of course, it won't be so popular in the future, but after the fame is established, it will be a matter of steady flow.

"From now on, after work every day, the copper coins will be rounded up, and they will be exchanged for precious banknotes in the bank, and sent to Tongyi Lane to give to Uncle Li, do you understand?"

"I know my boss!"

Lu Zheng nodded, the supply of goods is provided by himself, the price is fixed, and the accounts can be said to be clear, but he is not worried about Shitou and Ma San stealing from them.

Then let Uncle Li save enough ten coins to give it to him, so that he doesn't have to worry about this sugar shop every day.

At the end of the day, Lu Zheng closed the shop, put the three-pass banknote in his pocket, and walked back happily.

When he just walked to the entrance of Tongyi Lane, he saw two figures coming together from the opposite side, they were the beauties he met today.
