The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

In a few days, a few people at home made half a house full of candles.

Yuhua looked at the pile of candles in front of her and said, "When are you going to sell these candles?"

Shang Xi looked at the candle in front of him and said, "Cheng Feng has been looking for a house for a few days. There is no suitable one. Currently there is only a very old shop that is vacant. I will find time to go take a look with Cheng Feng. Cheng Feng didn't like it." ."

This shop was found by Cheng Feng after asking many people. It is a small shop and very old inside. It is really similar to what Cheng Feng said.

Shang Xi asked the owner of the shop, "What kind of business did this place use to do?"

"Seller of steamed buns."

Shang Xi looked around and saw that such a small place could sell steamed buns. There was no other shop to choose from at the moment and everyone was using it.

"How to sell this shop?"

"Only rent, not sell."

I really don’t understand how this poor house is neither maintained nor sold.

"Then how to rent it?"

The landlord said: "What kind of business do you do?"

"Selling oil lamps."

The landlord said: "Oil lamps are profitable, and every household needs them, so I'll charge you fifty taels of silver a month."

Cheng Feng's first reaction was that it was too expensive. Six hundred taels of silver a year, which is enough to buy a better shop. I don't know how much this candle can be sold for. An oil lamp is used by every family. Two copper coins, each household can't use two coins a year.

After thinking about it in his mind, he said, "It's too expensive. I won't rent this one anymore."

"Hey, young man, don't you see where I am? This is the main street."

Cheng Feng said: "Is this the main street? You are still four streets away from the main street, and it is also a shop at the end of this street. The house is shabby inside, so it is not worth fifty taels a month." "

Shang Xi stretched out her fingers and touched a stool. She showed it to the landlord, "With such thick dust, your house will be empty for several months. No one will rent it. The rent will be cheaper for us, otherwise we will go to someone else's house." Check it out at home.”

This person said: "My shop is the only one that is vacant in the whole Nancheng. It's fifty taels. If you want to rent it, just rent it. If you don't want to rent it, forget it. I don't have to worry about renting this house. If you don't decide today, this house will be gone tomorrow."

The landlord took a fancy to the two young people in front of him. They were both rich and young, and they certainly didn't know much, so they dared to talk nonsense.

Cheng Feng smiled. This was clearly a blackmail of their money.

"Your shop is only worth ten taels of silver a month. We won't rent it anymore."

After saying that, he pulled Shang Xi out.

When the landlord saw that the two men were not easy to deceive, he said, "Don't leave. Let's discuss it."

Cheng Feng said: "If it's more than ten taels, don't discuss it. It's not like we don't understand the price of the shops on each street, and we're not fat sheep for you to slaughter at will."

In the end, I rented this house for fifteen taels a month.

Although it was a bit higher than expected, at least there was a place, so they couldn't just set up a stall. They both had too much money to spend, so they would have stopped setting up a stall on the street.

It took a few days to tidy up the house. Even though it was a simple tidying up, it also cost a lot of money.

Another plaque was made with four words on it, "Oil Lamp Candle", and a candle was also painted on the plaque.

Cheng Feng said in confusion: "We don't sell oil lamps, so why do we do this on the plaque?"

Shang Xi smiled and said, "I also sell oil lamps and candles."

Cheng Feng still knew Shang Xi well. After listening to Shang Xi's words, he could guess what Shang Xi was thinking. This was probably the tacit understanding between the two people who had lived together for a long time.

"We don't have oil lamps at home. Are you going to ask me to buy oil lamps from other people's homes and then sell them in the store?"

Shang Xi smiled and said, "That's right, that's what it means."

According to Shang Xi's request, Cheng Feng found someone to go to the place where oil lamps were sold, bought all the oil lamps from several companies, and then placed them in his own shop.

Don't underestimate this move, it will have a big impact on the entire Nancheng, because in a short period of time, people will not be able to buy oil lamps unless they buy oil lamps at their homes.

Even though their oil lamps were the only ones in the city, they did not go up in price. The oil lamps still cost two cents each. Not only did they come with them, but they also gave them a candle when packing them.

Therefore, on the first day of opening, the business in the store was very good. Many business owners came here to take a look and wanted to secretly learn the business experience of this young couple.

Several oil lamp owners also came. They saw that the oil lamps they bought in large quantities from their homes were all here. They thought that the young couple would sell them at a high price, but when they found out, they still cost two cents each, and they were given free gifts. Candles of recognition.

But the act of sending candles made it even harder for everyone to understand.

An oil lamp seller pointed at Cheng Feng and Shang Xi and said, "You are destroying the market."

After all, there were many customers in the store. Cheng Feng said to Shang Xi, "You entertain the guests."

Before Shang Xi could say a word, Cheng Feng dragged the man who was looking for trouble out.

This person is right next to Cheng Feng, and you are much older than Cheng Feng.

Seeing how strong Cheng Feng was, I felt a little scared.

"what are you going to do?"

Cheng Feng said calmly: "I should ask you, what are you going to do?"

He didn't know where he got the courage to point at Cheng Feng and said, "You broke the market rules."

Cheng Feng said with a gloomy face: "Where are the rules? Who made the rules?"

"This oil lamp has always cost two cents a piece, why do you want to give it away?"

Cheng Feng said: "I am willing. If you want to give them away, you can buy some candles from my house and give them to the guests. I won't mind. But if you come to make trouble, I will break your legs."

Seeing that Cheng Feng was a bit scary, the man ran away in despair. Seeing that the young couple were not easy to mess with, the jealous people also left.

Seeing that everyone who should leave had left, Cheng Feng returned to the shop.

Shang Xi has been thinking about Cheng Feng.

"It's alright."

Cheng Feng smiled and said, "It's okay."

After a few days, all the people who came to buy oil lamps were people from the village. Many people bought two or three lamps.

Cheng Feng installed three oil lamps for one person and asked by the way, "Have you used all the oil lamps you bought?"

Because the oil in each oil lamp is one pound, according to the owner of the oil lamp, this oil lamp can be used for four days without going out day and night.

According to the living habits of every household.

Every household would lie in bed to rest almost as soon as it gets dark and get up as soon as it gets light, so the oil lamps cost nothing at all. People who don't even have money don't light oil lamps.

When he was alone in the past, he couldn't use up one oil lamp in a year. Even after Shang Xi came, the oil lamps in his house were very useless, and he had to carry a few home when he had nothing to do.
