After seeing off Gu Fangyou, Cen Le and the others were about to leave, but before they got out of the pier, they ran into Jing Hengling head-on again.

As soon as he said goodbye to his friends, he met someone he hated, and Cen Le's mood fell to the bottom.

Frowning, both he and Mu Chen changed their expressions.

Seeing Jing Hengling leading the people towards them, getting closer and closer, Mu Chen subconsciously took a step forward and stood in front of Cen Le.

On the side, Qingzhu also looked disgusted and vigilant.

When Jing Hengling saw them, he was also surprised for a moment, he obviously didn't expect to meet them, but he didn't stop, he just glanced at Cen Le distractedly, and walked quickly past them, his feet were in a hurry.

With Qingzhu sticking to his waist, he watched Jing Hengling lead the people away. After a long time, he scratched his head in doubt, "Did he take the wrong medicine today?"

Cen Le let go of his frowning eyebrows and relaxed, he patted Qingzhu's shoulder and wrote: "Let's go back."

Confused, she looked back, Qingzhu nodded.

There is no need to remember the unimportant things, so Cen Le quickly forgot about the hasty meeting with Jing Hengling and continued to be busy with the shop business.

It wasn't until a few days later that he heard a guest talking about the Jing's house and what happened, that he asked Qingzhu to inquire after the shop was closed.

Yiyan found the little beggar, and after hearing what he said, Qingzhu was so happy on the street that she wanted to jump up.

After giving the little beggar a tael of silver, he turned around and ran back. He wanted to hurry back and tell Big Brother Cen and the others the good news.

Running back to the small courtyard in one breath, Qing Zhu was so tired that she was sweating profusely, picked up the teapot on the table and took a big gulp.

Luo Qin frowned, "Drink slowly."

"Understood." Qingzhu chuckled twice, and drank slowly obediently.

After quenching his thirst, Qingzhu wiped the water from the corner of his mouth, opened his mouth and said, "Jing Hengling has been imprisoned."

Qingzhu looked excited, he organized his words, and continued: "The Jing family's business in Yangzhou and Hangzhou has troubles. I heard that they found fakes on the timber and medicinal materials that were going to be shipped to the capital. Several shopkeepers who bought the goods jointly submitted a pleading and sued Jing Hengling."

"Medical ingredients?" Cen Le was a little puzzled.

Qing Zhu nodded, "Yeah, Brother Cen, don't you know? After Jing Hengling took over the Jing family, he has done a lot of business, including medicinal materials."

Cen Le really didn't understand, he only remembered what Qin Ming had mentioned to him, and didn't inquire further about the others.

"Let him deserve it, the retribution is finally here." Qingzhu stretched out his hand, shook his fist fiercely in the air, then laughed again, looked at Cen Le and said, "Brother Cen can rest assured, Jing Hengling is too busy to take care of himself now, definitely I don't have time to bother you."

Hearing this, Cen Le laughed, frowned and nodded.

Qingzhu said again: "Tomorrow, I will ask the little beggar to continue to pay attention to the news of the Jing family. I will tell you when there is the latest situation."

Cen Le shook his head, lowered his head and wrote: "It's fine, don't inquire about the Jing family anymore."

He remembered Gu Fangyou's advice, and he also understood Gu Fangyou's worry. The Jing family's matter was probably related to the royal family's dispute. The more they knew, the worse it would be.

"Why?" Qingzhu was puzzled.

Gently pinching Qingzhu's face, Cen Le did not answer him, but changed the subject and said: "Let's eat, today I have your favorite dish."

Seeing the word "eat" and seeing the favorite dish following behind, Qingzhu's eyes lit up in an instant, and the doubts just now were instantly forgotten. He took Luo Qin's hand and ran happily to the table Sit down, then turn to urge Cen Le and Mu Chen.

"Brother Mu, Brother Cen, come quickly."

"it is good."

Mu Chen responded, then took Cen Le's hand and walked over together.



The days that followed went smoothly, and life and business were on track.

When the trial period of half a month came, Su Pan went to the shop to sign a contract with Cen Le as agreed, agreeing to speak for "Zhu Meng Ge".

The way of endorsement Cen Le thought of several plans, and was going to discuss it with Su Pan, but after Su Pan read his thoughts carefully, he shook his head, then blinked mysteriously, and said with a smile: "I have my own The best way is to just wait for the business to come to your door.”

Thinking of something, she said again: By the way, your essential oils and perfume are very good, please make more, otherwise there will be not enough. "

Cen Le nodded, "I remember."

After sending Su Pan away, Cen Le took out a pen and paper, and began to write on the paper, but halfway through the writing, he felt inappropriate and crossed out everything.

When Mu Chen came over, he happened to watch Cen Le cross out the written words, so he sat down beside him and asked, "What's wrong? What are you writing?"

Turning his head to Mu Chen and smiling, Cen Le thought for a while and gestured: "I have an idea, but I'm still thinking about it."

Pointing to the crossed-out part of the notebook, Mu Chen asked, "Are these?"

Cen Le nodded, "Well, but I don't have any specific ideas yet, I just wrote down what I thought, so the writing is messy."

"Can I take a look?"

"Of course." Cen Le turned the book to the first few pages, and then pushed it to Mu Chen.

The notebook that Cen Le carried with him was not big, so there were not many words on the pages. It didn't take long for Mu Chen to read it, but he was very at a loss. Even though he knew all the words on it, but together, He formed words one by one, but he didn't understand the meaning at all.

Pointing to some words he had never heard before, Mu Chen asked: "'Retail supermarket', 'customer category', 'market positioning', 'one-stop service'... What do these mean?"

Cen Le put down the charcoal pencil and explained the meaning of these words one by one with sign language. Finally, he also expressed his thoughts.

"I want to open a store that collects all kinds of goods, which is the so-called 'retail supermarket'. You can sell rouge and gouache, cloth and clothing, as well as firewood, rice, oil and salt, etc., but all the goods on the market can be placed in the store. for sale."

Understanding Cen Le's meaning, Mu Chen couldn't help being stunned.

After a while, he asked again: "In this case, wouldn't the pavement look messy?"

"No, to open such a 'supermarket', the storefront must be spacious enough, and all the goods must be classified into categories and neatly organized one by one. On each shelf, it is best to post instructions to inform each kind of goods. On which shelves, the price must also be marked."

At this point, Cen Le suddenly thought of something, picked up the charcoal pen again, and quickly recorded everything that came to mind on the paper, and motioned for Mu Chen to come over and have a look, "The prices of the items sold in the 'supermarket' must be It’s cheaper than ordinary stores, and during the holidays, there are some promotional activities, and then you can use some out-of-season or newly-launched products as discounts according to the time period...

For the source of goods, you can cooperate with merchants, promise them some benefits, and try to minimize the purchase price. In this way, even if the profit recovered by each product is not too high, but there are more customers, there will be no loss. "

Mu Chen looked at it seriously, even though the content on the paper was completely new to him, but he understood that if it could really be like what Cen Le said, then such a shop would be really convenient, and it would certainly not be a loss to open it.

Cen Le continued to write: "At the same time, you can also contact the Escort Bureau and cooperate with them. At that time, the customer only needs to pay a small amount of copper coins, and the Escort Bureau will help deliver the goods. The cost of the goods will be paid by us..."

After writing down his thoughts, Cen Le stopped writing, turned his wrist again, and relaxed.

Seeing this, Mu Chen grabbed his hand and rubbed it gently for him.

The comfort from his hands warmed Cen Le's heart. He looked at Mu Chen quietly, and unconsciously, the corners of his mouth curled up.

The customers in the shop come and go, so intimacy is always not good, so after a while, Cen Le took his hand back and asked Mu Chen, "Is this idea too whimsical?"

"No." Mu Chen shook his head, his tone was very serious, "It's not a whimsical idea, it's very good."

At this time, Zou San's voice also suddenly interjected, "This idea is very good."

Cen Le was startled by Zou San's sudden words.

Turning his head, he saw that Qing Zhu and Zou San were coming together for some reason, and they were staring at the book without blinking.

Noticing the look in Cen Le's eyes, Zou San turned to look at him, "Shopkeeper Cen, have you ever thought about cooperating with my young master?"

Although Zou San is a Jiang Hu person, he can see such an obvious business opportunity.

"This is just an idea, not perfect." Cen Le said, "When the plan is ready, I will discuss it with Young Master Song and Young Master Qin."

If the "supermarket" really wants to open, he will definitely not be able to do it alone. He has no background and no backer, so he can't stand up in Suzhou. Regardless of whether those merchants will pay attention to him and promise to provide the source of goods, it will be able to open smoothly. , Follow-up troubles will definitely not be less.

Because the opening of the "supermarket" will inevitably affect some merchants. If they unite, he will be alone and helpless. How can he be an opponent?

Besides, Qin Ming and Song Yunxiu are both his friends, and their shops have the goods he needs, so naturally he will not hide it.

"That's good." Zou San nodded with satisfaction.

Sitting next to Cen Le, Qing Zhu looked at Cen Le with a curious expression on his face, "Brother Cen, do you have a shop like this?"

"Yes." Cen Le smiled, "There are many more."

"Will the business be good then?"

"pretty good."

There was more yearning in Qingzhu's eyes, he cupped his face and said, "I really want to visit Brother Cen's hometown, it must be a very special place."

Cen Le nodded slightly.

Qingzhu moved forward and asked again: "Brother Cen, do you want to go back?"

Cen Le froze for a moment, then shook his head.

Although the modern age is good, for him, there is no sense of belonging, but this strange era makes him feel comfortable and has a home.

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Mu Chen again, and showed him a sweet smile.

Holding Cen Le's hand again, Mu Chen also raised his lips.

Qingzhu and Zou San felt that they were shown their faces: "..."
