Heaven’s Intention
Chapter 41 Opening a Store (Part 1)
It snowed heavily for three days in a row, but it couldn't stop the enthusiasm. Romon's pharmacy was proceeding smoothly under the expectant eyes of countless people, and the preliminary preparations were orderly.
Contrary to what everyone thought, Romon did not rashly choose the most prosperous area in Rika Town.
People usually look for the location with the highest concentration of people in the process of selecting a store location, thinking that the more people flow, the better the location. Some people look at the rent and think that the more expensive the rent, the better the store.
In fact, these understandings are not enough.
When looking for a store, just looking at the flow of people or the rent can sometimes lead you into a misunderstanding. The flow of people is important, but what is more important is whether the flow of people in the area is an effective buyer of your goods.
That is to say, is it worth the price you pay for the location of your store, and whether it can maximize profits.
Romon's idea is very simple. The main customers of his pharmacy are the many adventurers who come to the town every year and venture into the thorn forest. Enen, when it comes to this, Romon is a little strange, because this year It is several times more than before, and it seems to have some unusual breath
Leaving aside this point, apart from adventurers, the customers were the most common group of townspeople, so he didn't want to open the store in the center of the town.
The first reason is that the rent or purchase price of the shops there is relatively expensive, and he doesn't have much money at the moment, so he doesn't want to waste it.
The second reason is that most of the people living in the center of the town are prominent figures in the town. Even if they are sick, most of them go to the temple to seek treatment from the priest. They should not lower their status easily to buy his medicine. What's more, there are conflicts between him and the priest and the tax official.
Ordinary townspeople mostly live in the surrounding areas outside the center of the town. Building shops in the surrounding area is convenient for the townspeople and saves them money.
The third reason is that the adventurers in the Warcraft Forest were injured. They must pass through the edge first before returning to the center of the town. The shop was opened outside the town center, that is, not far from the gate of the town wall, which provided convenience for the adventurers. , can also make oneself end up with benefits, why not do it.
However, the plan is a plan, and it took a lot of trouble to actually implement it.
Although the location of this store has been decided to be located outside the center of the town, Romon is in a dilemma as to which store to rent or buy.
Because the town of Rika is not big, almost any store is unique. For example, the hotel is the one of the Mott couple, and almost all other stores are the same. There will be no so-called competition, because the consumption level is so high. However, any industry is only enough to maintain a family's income. It is also because of this that the shops in the small town are basically maintained at a stable level. Except for the newly expanded shops in the central area, there are really no redundant shops.
In the end, with the help of the businessman Barn, he reached an agreement with the owner of a small shop not far from the Mott Hotel, and bought the shop with 150 silver coins.
The area of this store is not too small, but because the consumption level of the residents in the town is not high, and the goods in his store are not very complete, so the business has not been popular. No, the boss' younger brother worked as a shopkeeper in a commercial firm in a small town. If he wanted to ask the shopkeeper for help, his monthly salary was almost half a year's income, so the shopkeeper naturally agreed. And that firm happened to be the one that Romon went to with the caravan last time, so one wanted to sell and the other wanted to sell.
In the end, after Barnel dealt with it and bought the store, together with the land, at a relatively cheap price, the problem of Romon's store location was finally resolved. Looking at this seemingly inconspicuous shop, and thinking that from now on, he will start to own a property, Romon was very excited.
Romon, when will it open? Tomorrow? Remember to invite me then, we didn't drink enough last time. Merchant Barn patted Romon's shoulder,
Said with a smile.
Romon looked at the greasy shop floor and shook his head: Not yet.
Why? The merchant Barn followed his gaze and nodded, That's right, I need to clean it up a bit, Romon, do you need me to call some people over to help?
Luo Meng hurriedly thanked him, but he didn't want to just clean the place.
The new store has a new look, not to mention, he also intends to take this soon-to-open pharmacy as his first business, so naturally he can't start carelessly.
I'm going to redecorate this store, and it will open in about half a month. Romon thought for a while and said.
Half a month? The businessman Barn was somewhat confused. People in this world don't have much packaging ideas yet. According to his idea, as long as the room is cleaned, everything should be put in, and the signboard at the door is changed, can't it be opened?
However, he is just a middleman, and Romon is the boss, so he was just surprised, and then nodded: Okay, don't forget to buy me a drink when the time comes!
No problem, I will definitely invite you when the time comes. This time I can sell this store, thanks to your help. Romon was in a good mood, so he agreed.
Therefore, the next half a month will be busy with shop decoration.
However, what makes many people puzzled is that the store that Romon is about to open, when it was being renovated, the glass was drawn with thick curtains. It is really curious.
But even if you ask those people who come to decorate every day, because these people have promised that Romon will not reveal the secret, so even if they are questioned, they still look mysterious.
In this way, not only the adventurers and ordinary townspeople who needed cheap potions paid attention, but even the few wealthy families in the town were quietly talking about Romon's strange behavior. Looking forward to this new store.
Hmph, playing tricks again! At night, in a room of the temple, a young priest threw a letter on the table viciously.
It seemed that he still couldn't understand the hatred, so he picked up the letter again, crumpled it into a ball, put it on the candle, and burned it. It wasn't until seeing the letter paper and the envelope gradually turning into ashes in the flames that the young pastor felt a little better.
This letter was given to him by the tax officer. Recently, the tax officer was busy with the tax report statistics and settlement at the end of the year, so he didn't have time to meet with him. However, he also sent a letter to him.
The letter didn't say anything else, it just mentioned some things that happened in the town recently in detail. Among them, it included Romon's various actions during this period.
Relying on his status, the pastor would not leave the temple easily, so the pastor learned about many things that happened in the town through the channel of the tax official.
Seeing the flames rushing, the letter paper was almost burned, the young pastor leaned over and blew lightly. Immediately, a layer of dust rose up, and then disappeared with the wind.
Romon...don't be too happy, I...won't let you go! As if speaking to Romon, but also to himself, the young pastor leaned back on the chair, viciously Said.
Ever since Romon appeared, the smiling face of the Second Miss towards him kept reappearing in his mind, filling him with hatred.
At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and the candlelight in the room began to flicker violently, and then, with a rubbing sound, it was extinguished. Suddenly, the entire room was plunged into darkness, leaving only a certain kind of panting.
Nick, be careful, walk slowly. In an ordinary farmer's household in Rika Town, a teenager was walking cautiously in the yard.
This is an exercise he does every day, starting with a few laps in the yard and then a slow walk around town to build his body.
Beside him, a bloated middle-aged woman was watching him with tears in her eyes.
Oh, thank God, thank God, my son, he finally cheered up! Thank you for your protection! Thank you! Thank you!
From time to time, the middle-aged woman clasped her hands in front of her chest, closed her eyes reverently, and spoke silently facing the direction of the sky.
Mother!
Nick, what's the matter? Hearing her son's call, the middle-aged woman quickly opened her eyes and looked in the boy's direction.
The boy moved his body on the spot, and then said to the middle-aged woman: Mother, please go back to the house, it's cold outside, I can just go for a walk by myself today.
How could it be... The middle-aged woman wanted to say something, but was taken aback by her son's next move.
Seeing that the boy's face suddenly turned ugly: If you don't go in, then I won't practice in the future!
My child, I'll go in, I can't do it! Don't practice for too long, it's cold outside, and we don't have to rush to recover at this moment, okay? , went back to the house.
You, don't spoil the child too much, haven't you become more sensible after seeing Nick's suffering? The middle-aged man who was working in the house raised his head and said.
The middle-aged woman looked back and muttered to herself. But it's cold outside.
Only after going through hardships can one really become a man. Looking at the figure of the boy walking out, the middle-aged man sighed.
It's also thanks to Romon! They sighed.
At this moment, the young Nick has slowly walked out of the yard. Looking at the snow all over the sky, the smile he kept on his face disappeared, leaving only a blank face.
The money at home is almost gone again. Although his parents didn't tell him, his nerves are extremely sensitive now, so he can naturally feel it.
In order to take care of his body, the family's savings have long been spent. Although Romon and the others often send money over, Nick, who has begun to understand, feels that this can no longer be done.
He was willing to go hunting on his own initiative. Romon and the others had done enough now, and he couldn't ask for their money for nothing.
What's more, it can be helped for a while, but it won't last forever. He knows that even if his body recovers to the best, he probably won't be able to do heavy farm work anymore.
But what can he do if he is not a farmer? Do you really want your parents to support him for the rest of his life?
Thinking wildly, he walked slowly. After exercising for about an hour, I returned home.
When I got home, I found out what my parents were talking about.
Nick, Romon came here just now and said that his pharmacy will open in half a month, let us go there.
is it? Is Romon's Pharmacy finally opening? Nick took the three red invitation cards, and all of a sudden, the feeling in his heart became very complicated.
