The news that Xujia Supermarket is going to let other businessmen join in quickly spread in Chang'an.

But what is joining? ?

This is a new concept, and it is impossible for someone to come to the door enthusiastically after hearing a few words.

It has to be said that businessmen are shrewd.

But they could see the popularity of Xu's Supermarket, and many people began to make noises.

The news I got is nothing more than that the franchise store must operate according to the rules set by the Xu family, and the franchise store must purchase goods from the Xu family and other strange restrictions.

Isn't this just helping the Xu family to sell things and shouting poorly?Why do they have to be bound by so many terms and conditions when they have this money, why not be as comfortable as they can get the cheapest goods, and the price must be sold according to the price set by the Xu family?What else do they make?

Of course, there are also people who have different ideas. How popular the Xu Family Supermarket model is, they have seen it with their own eyes, so what's wrong with running the Xu Family Supermarket model?Not much better than the way they were originally.

There is also the purchase of goods at the Xu family, which is a restriction, but on the other hand, it also solves the problem of the supply of goods, so that they don't have to bother to find the source of goods everywhere, and how popular the varieties of the Xu family are, they can have no idea?The most important thing is that the Xu family's goods are all unique businesses, and if you want to get them elsewhere, no one will sell them, so this may not be a disadvantage at all, provided that the Xu family can provide sufficient sources of goods.

As for the last point, it must be sold according to Xu's pricing. I heard that franchisees will have quantity restrictions in each location, and each location has a uniform price, which avoids competition with each other.

This is actually a foolish way of doing business. You don't have to worry about the supply of goods, you don't have to worry about competition. The only thing to consider is whether the goods can be sold or not, and whether you can make money.

But does anyone dare to say that Xu's goods can't be sold?Didn't you see the whole of Chang'an, did you come to buy it after most of the city?

Many people began to wait and see, especially those treacherous businessmen who wanted to make a lot of money, because if the Xu family set the price, they would not be able to make huge profits from it.

But those businessmen who were a little more honest, those who wanted to earn a little bit of price difference, took action.

Because as long as the purchase price given by the Xu family is appropriate and the selling price is also appropriate, they can calculate the price difference and naturally know whether they can make a profit.

Xu Changsheng was in no hurry, and was waiting for the three new supermarkets in Chang'an to be renovated and open for business with peace of mind.

Fang Xiang and the prince did not drag their feet. They found someone who was optimistic about a shop in a location with good traffic and rented it.

To use the model of Xu's Supermarket, the site must be spacious, so all the adjacent shops were rented out.

Because it is a lease, the capital does not need too much. If you buy a shop, it must be another matter.

Now the shop is undergoing a unified renovation, and the shelves have been customized. There are still many carpenters in Chang'an.

It can be said that when the decoration is completed, the three new supermarkets will be exactly the same as the original Xujia Supermarket, even with the same name on the door plaque, "Xujia Supermarket-Chang'an Store".

Of course, the words "benefiting the country and benefiting the people" must be indispensable.

In order to distinguish, numbers are added to the corners, No. [-] shop, No. [-] shop...

There is no number for the supermarket that the Xu family runs by themselves, it can be regarded as the characteristic of the main store.

Xu Changsheng did not expect that businessmen would come to the three new franchise stores before they opened.

It is wrong to say that it is a businessman, because the person who came was Cheng Chumo from Lu Guogong's mansion, but he came with money to join.

Cheng Chumo had seen Xujia Village by accident. Even if Xu Changsheng told him that it was not the residence of the gods, but just their Xujia Village, he still felt miraculous and different in his heart.

Hearing that the important people in the business of Xu's Supermarket joined him, he fell in love with it.

They are Wu Xun's family, so they don't know how to do business, but after inquiring, this fool's business model does not need a businessman's mind at all, and there is no need to worry about the supply of goods. Even the seller and the accountant Mr. Xu's family have been trained. You only need to provide your own people and land. Isn't this tailor-made for Wu Xun families like them who have a little extra money but don't know how to take care of it?Because of the unified pricing, even the servants sent to manage cannot be greedy for money.

Cheng Chumo knew where Xu Changsheng lived, so he came here with the money.

Xu Changsheng was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that the businessman didn't wait, but the people from Duke Lu's mansion did.

After thinking about it in my heart, in fact, it is true that the other party does not need to be a businessman to join, because the only thing the other party has to do is to provide the land and the money for the purchase, and the Xu family will help them specially train them.

Cheng Chumo said, "How about it? My family wants to open a Xu's supermarket in Chang'an, and then it will be a shopkeeper waiting to collect money."

The corners of Xu Changsheng's mouth twitched, did anyone speak like that?Although this is the reason.

"But there are already three new shops in Chang'an City, plus the one we are currently operating, which is distributed in four directions, which is just enough."

Cheng Chumo smiled, "Who are the other three franchisees? I, Duke Lu's Mansion, will come out and say something, and then give them some compensation, and let them go to the cities around Chang'an to operate. I still have some face in Lu Guogong's Mansion."

Xu Changsheng looked at Cheng Chumo with a strange expression, "I'm afraid Duke Lu's family won't save face this time."

Cheng Chumo was stunned for a moment, and became interested, "Which merchants have joined? Is there someone behind it?"

Xu Changsheng replied, "The one in Dongshi belongs to Fang Xiang's family, and the other two belong to the crown prince. Do you think they can give you this face if you tell them?"

Cheng Chumo opened his mouth, the prince is okay to say, because no one knows the friendship with the Xu family, and the support of joining is also reasonable, but Fang Xiang can do business with the Xu family?

How can he not know that Fangfu is so miserable?Fang Xiang's personality and character can participate in this matter?He wouldn't believe it even if he was killed.

Asked, "Which house phase are you talking about?"

Xu Changsheng was speechless, could there be a second one?

"But... how did you move him?" Cheng Chumo really couldn't figure out the reason. Fang Xiang would never have his name for life. Care about their reputation.

Xu Changsheng replied with a smile, "Master Fang is not doing business, he is doing things that benefit the country and the people. Don't forget that even His Majesty said that our Xu Family Supermarket is an industry that benefits the country and the people."

Cheng Chumo was stunned for a moment, how can this be done in business?Does that mean that the government of Lutago is also doing things that benefit the country and the people?

With a movement of his eyes, he will brag to his buddies in the future, and he will brag to his father when he goes back. Doesn't his father always think that he has nothing to do?Isn't he doing things that benefit the country and the people now, if his father objects, he will take the house minister as an example, and he still doesn't believe that his father can overthrow the house house and His Majesty's ideas.

Cheng Chu thought about it for a while, since Fang Xiang and the crown prince took the opportunity in Chang'an, he really didn't have that much face to ask them to give him the quota, and said, "Well, our Lu Guogong's mansion wants two or two franchise quotas in Luoyang. "

Luoyang is not far from Chang'an. The key point is that Luoyang has a developed economy and rich people. It is indeed a good place. Moreover, the land and water routes from Chang'an to Luoyang are very smooth, and there is no problem in transportation. He only needs to send some people to Luoyang to operate. OK.

Xu Changsheng was taken aback when he heard the words, didn't he just say that there is only one quota?

Cheng Chu said silently, even Fang Xiang and the crown prince have joined, which means that the money is guaranteed, and he will not be involved in it because of this matter. Can he not add a little bargaining chip?

Xu Changsheng thought for a while, Luoyang has four quotas, so he nodded.

Cheng Chumo handed over the money, "These money should be regarded as the money for the first batch of purchases."

Xu Changsheng: "..."

It's no wonder that Wu Xun's family doesn't know how to do business, and they handed over the money before even writing the horoscope.

In fact, he is still working on the contract, and after finishing it, he has to sign a contract with these franchisees and leave a deposit in the Yamen, so that his regulations can take effect.

After discussing the matter of joining with Cheng Chumo, Cheng Chumo said, "Xu Jiazi, you promised me to invite me to your Xujia Village. How long has it been?"

Xu Changsheng thought to himself, isn't he unable to leave?He had to study in the Imperial College, and he replied, "How about the fifth day of August? Wouldn't it be more lively to go to my Xujia Village with everyone?"

Although the Wu Xun family was not as involved as the literati in the incidents that Xu Changsheng caused, they still probably knew about it and nodded.

After chatting casually again, they left.

After Cheng Chumo left, he ran home to brag to his father. He is now doing things that benefit the country and the people. Seeing that his father is still in the future, he will always say that he is worthless.

Lu Guogong Cheng bit Jin and opened his mouth, he didn't know how to refute, "Even that little old man Fang Xuanling got involved?"

Cheng Chumo said, "That's still false, Xu Jiazi told me himself."

Cheng Yaojin muttered a few words, "If you don't get scolded for doing business, it will benefit the country and the people?"

However, both His Majesty and Old Man Fang said that this is something that benefits the country and the people. Can he object?

Not only did he not object, he also boasted everywhere.

He paid to join the Xu Family Supermarket, originally thinking of sneaking in, because civil servants like to fight against military officials when they have nothing to do, but this time, seeing those civil servants dare to say anything about him, I didn't see that the chief civil servant, the old man Fang, also participated.

Cheng Yaojin muttered as he went out, he happened to be going to the school grounds, he had to brag that he was helping His Majesty to build the country and benefit the people.

Cheng Chumo also went out, and he went to brag to his good buddies.

As a result, it didn't take long for everyone to know that Duke Lu's government, who had no business acumen, actually wanted to invest money in business. By the way, this is not called business. Officials are not allowed to do business. This is called building up the country and benefiting the people. Even Fang Xiang, who is known for his integrity, participated.

Of course, on the surface they must be handed over to the servants, and they won't touch their hands, but who doesn't know the truth.

In fact, there are a lot of people who scold them, especially Fang Xuanling's political opponents, who almost jumped up and scolded them. I believe that they have written many books.

When Fang Xuanling was pointed at his nose and scolded, his face turned black. Didn't he quietly help the Xu family open a supermarket so that the people in Chang'an could eat cheap oil as soon as possible, so there was a commotion ?

Xu Jiazi is indeed a misfortune man. Originally, Xu Jiazi should be scolded, but now all the blame is aimed at him, and he can't get rid of this blame even if he wants to.

Sighing, he still had to finish some tails, and read as he walked, all the troubles were fine, all the things about wiping his butt were taken care of by him.

At this time, Xu Changsheng was looking at the group of people who came to his house in a daze.

All are the second generation of officials, most of whom are descendants of Wu Xun.

For example, Qin Huaiyu, Chai Lingwu and so on.

A group of people looked quite sturdy, completely different from the scholars.

He came up and said, "Our family also wants to be a hands-off shopkeeper, and we are waiting at home to count the money, Xu family, please arrange a place for us quickly, so we can arrange people to open the shop."

Xu Changsheng: "..."

These Wu Xun families are also quite rich.

Cheng Chumo was a little embarrassed, "I went to tell them, but they insisted on coming, and I couldn't stop them."

How can he talk about it, the cowhide is almost blown to the sky.

In addition, the Wu Xun family is really not good at management, and they are basically in a state of sitting and eating, so they have thought about it, and they like to manage it like a fool.

Xu Changsheng was still worried about whether his franchise plan would be successful, but now it seems that there is no need to worry at all. What is worried now is whether their Xujia Village can keep up with the supply.

Fortunately, the other cities are far away, and there will be no need to supply them for a while, and now only the four Chang'an cities will be enough.

Xu Changsheng said, "Think about it, everyone. This is not just a word of mouth, but a contract has to be signed and notarized by the yamen, and according to the contract, the franchisee must operate the supermarket according to the rules set by Xujia Village, otherwise we will Xu Jiacun has the right to immediately stop supply and delist.”

He has to explain these things clearly. After all, these people have good backgrounds. If they rely on their status to be self-righteous and make their own decisions in the future, it will be troublesome.

The result was, "Why is Xu Jiazi talking about this? We don't know how to run the business, so just leave it to your Xujia Village."

Xu Changsheng: "..."

This hands-off shopkeeper is really thorough enough.

But it doesn't matter if you don't care about anything like this, it's not bad to leave them to Xujiacun.

Xu Changsheng said, "Changsheng guarantees that as long as you operate according to the model I said, you will definitely be able to make some money, but even though you are a franchisee, the words "beneficial to the country and the people" must be written on the Xu Family Supermarket. So those who want to make a sudden profit, it is better not to participate."

A group of second-generation officials stared, "Where is the Xu family? Is it possible that only the Xu family knows about being the first in the world, so we can't do it? Don't underestimate us and the Wu Xun family."

"That is, we also participated with a heart of serving the country and the people. Our purpose is to let the people of Tang Dynasty eat cheap oil, and after that, we can make a little money by the way."

Xu Changsheng rubbed his nose, well, he has already said this, and if he continues, he will offend others.

With a smile on his face, "In that case, let's go to the Yamen to sign the contract."

A mighty group of people walked towards Chang'an Yamen, which attracted many people's surprise.

The man in the lead is riding a big tiger, they must know each other, isn't it Xu Jiazi.

Isn't Xu Jiazi doing something to join recently?

The people behind were all riding horses, and they didn't look like ordinary people.

What is this for?

A familiar street neighbor couldn't help asking, "Xu Jiazi, where are you guys going?"

Xu Changsheng cupped his hands politely, "These are people who have joined my Xu Family Supermarket and obtained quotas. We are going to the Yamen for notarization."

When he first came to Chang'an, he still wanted to use Dabai to scare these neighbors, to be a bully, and then leave Chang'an disheartened, but he later found that this trick would not work, because...these people were not afraid of Dabai at all.

Xu Changsheng could only sigh, Datang's heart is really big enough!

The people around were stunned, "I found someone to join so quickly? It costs a lot of money to rent a shop and buy goods?"

Xu Changsheng smiled and cupped his hands and said, "The sooner the Xu Family Supermarket will be opened in all ten ways of the Tang Dynasty, the sooner the people of the Tang Dynasty will be able to eat cheap oil. The people behind me are basically descendants of Wu Xun. In order to realize their dreams with Changsheng, they will not hesitate Take out the rest of the family money to support Changsheng."

The second generation of officials, who were still idle in the back, couldn't help being stunned. In this way, they are really doing things that benefit the country and the people, and they are all working hard for this ideal.

For some reason, these second-generation officials straightened their waists in an instant, and they didn't look like they were half-playing around just now.

Under the enthusiastic, grateful, and supportive eyes of a group of people, a group of people walked towards the Yamen.

Originally, they just thought that joining the Xu Family Supermarket was just to make some money. Suddenly, they felt that what they were doing was sacred, and they couldn't help but pay more attention to it. The Venerable Master directly smashed the door of his house to catch his chickens.

Discussions could be heard from a distance, "At first, I thought that they would only ride horses in Chang'an City and act recklessly everywhere. I didn't expect that they are also such a group of good young people with ideals and revenge."

"That is, in the final analysis, they are also after my great achievements in the Tang Dynasty. Now they are a bit stubborn. When they grow up, they will be sensible and know how to serve the country and the people."

For some reason, they thought of the song "Da Tang Boys Talk" that they heard from time to time.

Brave, I am a young man from the Tang Dynasty, and my country has no borders.

And many businessmen, looking at the Xu family who left and a group of second-generation officials, slapped their thighs. When it was over, they kept watching, and now the places were occupied by others.

I ran up quickly, wondering if there were still some places in remote areas.

There is no way, looking at the large group of people in the past, it is probably impossible to even think about the places in a good city.

……

Xu Changsheng and a group of second generations went to sign the contract.

"Xu Jiazi, hurry up and train us well."

"Xu Jiazi, hurry up and supply us, do you want money?"

Xu Changsheng: "..."

Is it too aggressive?You rent the shop first, and then decorate it according to the requirements of the contract. There is no shop, and it is useless to say that.

This group of second generations can't wait to spread the benefits of Xu's Supermarket everywhere, and can't wait for everyone to know that they have participated in the expansion of Xu's Supermarket. Of course, the most important thing is to secretly tell others that what they are doing is beneficial to the country and the people.

Xu Changsheng did some calculations, and he signed a total of [-] contracts just now, each of which is basically two shops.

That is to say, as long as it is running, there will be at least two shops in each of the ten roads of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, it's all... just planned.

Even so, Xu Changsheng was also smiling. Two shops per street seemed too few, but their Xu Family Supermarket had a tendency to bloom everywhere.

The most important thing is that when these shops are opened, their Xu family has not yet made a lot of money, and all the goods come from them.

His eyes are shining golden, and he is about to develop.

Of course, the farther away from Chang'an, the longer it will take to open a supermarket, and he has to ask his uncle to prepare some people from Xujia Village. When the shops are renovated, he will let these uncles go to check and accept them.

It is estimated that many uncles of Xu's family have to travel through mountains and rivers. This is something that can't be helped. It is necessary to ensure that the model of Xu's supermarket is uniformly planned.

Unlike a group of second-generation officials spreading the benefits of Xu's supermarket chain everywhere in Chang'an, above the Golden Palace, there are people jumping and scolding Fang Xuanling and Lu Guogong for being too rich.

"Your Majesty, they are officials of our Tang Dynasty, but they compete with the people for profit. How are they different from merchants?"

"Fang Xiang used his reputation to cheat the world and steal his name, and he even participated in this matter shamelessly. Please, His Majesty must be vigilant and punish severely."

"..."

These officials above the Golden Temple and the second generation of officials in the market now basically have completely different attitudes.

With Fang Xuanling's expressionless expression on his face, he knew that he had to wipe his ass for a certain troublemaker.

He also knew that his political opponents would never let go of this opportunity to attack and annihilate him. The dignified prime minister participated in the management, and no excuses could cover up its essence. It would be strange for these people to miss such a good opportunity to attack and annihilate him.

Li Shimin above was surprised for a while, even he couldn't figure it out, how could his prime minister get involved in this matter, isn't this just giving someone a handle?

Fang Xuanling glanced at Lu Guogong who was blushing from the words, unexpectedly, he would stand on the same front as this rough guy one day.

He used to like to point and scold these generals, but now he and these generals were pointed and scolded.

Interestingly, except for Lu Guogong, why did the other generals act as if they had done something wrong, and didn't scold them?

Fang Xuanling showed in front of all the officials what is called Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face. He has been an official for so many years, is he still afraid of being scolded by these people?In addition, he will have to argue with these people about this later.

The officials below jumped higher one by one, it was like opening a supermarket with Fang Xiang, and Datang was like a pill.

The Golden Palace has been bustling for a long time, basically longer than the time Xu Changsheng and the others went to the Yamen to sign the contract.

Therefore, the news of the Golden Palace has already begun to spread to the market.

A group of Chang'an people were stunned when they heard this.

Why are Fang Xiang and Lu Guogong's government not allowed to help develop Xu's supermarket?

The more Xu's supermarkets are opened, isn't it good for the people to open them all over Datang?

When Xu Jiazi passed by just now, he also said that the sooner Xu's supermarket appeared in Ten Dao of Datang, the sooner the people of Datang would be able to eat cheap oil.

There is also that group of dandy young masters who seem to have changed their minds and meritorious families. Don't they tell everyone that they are helping the development of Xu's supermarket in order to make the people of Datang live a better life?

What happened to the officials in the palace?

Especially the people in East City of Chang’an, the supermarket that Fang Xiang helped Xu’s family to open is in their East City. , Everyone is celebrating with joy, now it’s all right, the officials in the Golden Palace won’t allow the Prime Minister to help the Xu family open a store?

The house is for the country and the people, so why not allow it?Isn't it just to help Xu's family open a supermarket, and see if other officials' homes don't have some store business in their hands?

When they thought that Xu's Supermarket in Dongshi might not be able to open, a group of people felt very distressed.

The people in the north-south direction also feel the same way. If the Dongshi cannot open, how can their supermarkets in the north-south direction be spared?

……

Above the imperial court, Cheng Yaojin and a group of people who wrote letters scolded hard.

But he was no match for four hands with two fists, and he was so angry that his veins were exposed when he was pinched left and right by others.

Fang Xuanling took a look and saw that these generals were okay to lead troops to fight, but he had to come to fight with people in this temple.

Just about to go out, at this time, the messenger came in, "Your Majesty, some old men from Chang'an gathered outside the palace, saying that they want to plead for the people of Chang'an and the people of the world."

Li Shimin was stunned, pleading for the people of Chang'an, pleading for the people of the world?

Is this something big?

He spoke widely, and even let the people in the market inquire about the affairs of the court. At such a time, if there are old men and elders gathering, there must be some major event that affects the people's livelihood.

The messenger continued, "All old men and elders, please agree. Your Majesty, please allow the Prime Minister to allow Lu Guogong to help the Xu family to open the Xu's supermarket in Chang'an and the Tang Dynasty."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone in the Golden Palace was stunned.

The group of people who were filled with righteous indignation and wrote the letter just now were stunned. Old Weng from Chang'an came to ask for orders, please allow Fang Xiang and Lu Guogong to participate in the expansion of Xu's Supermarket?

Did they hear right?

Fang Xuanling was surprised, he was ready to explain how to defend these people who attacked him.

But even if he can win the case against all the officials, his reputation in the market will not be improved, because no matter what the excuse is, in essence, his Fang Xiangfu is involved in the management.

He was ready to be reviled by the world.

But... now the old man from Chang'an came to plead for his order and allow him to participate?

This……

Fang Xuanling was at a loss for a moment.

Li Shimin was also surprised, and asked, "Do you know the reason?"

The messenger replied, "All the elders said that Fang Xiang and Lu Guogong are doing things that benefit the country and the people. They are helping them to eat cheap oil as soon as possible and help them live a better life. So the elders are asking you, Why stop it? And His Majesty once said that the Xu Family Supermarket is beneficial to the country and the people, so why stop it from expanding now?"

Li Shimin: "..."

He did say it, but he didn't expect that Xu Jiazi would use other people's hands to develop Xu's supermarket, and even came up with a new concept of franchising.

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard, with a look of relief on his face, he did not waste his reputation for the people of the Tang Dynasty, and now these people actually took the initiative to speak out for him.

From this point of view, he doesn't even need to make excuses, and those who attacked and annihilated him have to stop, because it is impossible for His Majesty to disregard public opinion.

At this time, Li Chengqian stood up, "Father, my son also contributed to help the Xu family build two Xu's supermarkets in the south and north of Chang'an City. My son thinks that the Xu family's supermarkets will spread throughout the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible, which is the blessing of the people of the Tang Dynasty."

Cheng Yaojin quickly interjected, "Old Cheng, I just said that my Cheng family joined two Xu's supermarkets in Luoyang just to let the people in Luoyang eat cheap oil as soon as possible. These people insist that my Cheng family wants To make huge profits, I didn't take a closer look at the contract given by the Xu family. The price is set by the Xu family after referring to the transportation cost and then considering other conditions. Even our Cheng family has no right to decide how much oil is sold in Luoyang. "

"The Xu family's regulations are strict, to make huge profits? Stop supplying immediately."

Fang Xuanling also stood up, "Your Majesty, if the Xu Family Supermarket hadn't really greatly improved the people's livelihood, how would I dare to agree to help the Xu Family expand a Xu Family Supermarket? I don't need to mention the benefits of the Xu Family Supermarket. The people in Chang'an outside That is the best proof."

At this time, there was a line of generals, and several other generals came out, "Your Majesty, the sooner Xu's supermarkets are opened in Datang, the sooner our people in Datang can enjoy the convenience of oil, and our government of E State is also ready to help Xu's family." Expand one or two to help it realize the four words of benefiting the country and the people as soon as possible."

"My Duke Qiaoxiang's Mansion is also planning to help Xu's family open two Xu's supermarkets..."

"I……"

Looking at the military generals who came out one by one, there were quite a few of them, and the civil servants were a little confused. When will a group of generals be able to run a business?I am not afraid to do one line and lose one line.

This kind of thing cannot be said on the stage. Everyone's excuse is that Xu's supermarket is beneficial to the country and the people. They are helping Xu's family to realize the four words of benefiting the country and the people that they promised.

Fang Xuanling was also taken aback, thinking, there are quite a lot of people fooled by the Xu family.

He really misunderstood Xu Changsheng, these people came to him on their own initiative, how could he refuse as a commoner?

Now even the crown prince, the prime minister, and a bunch of generals are involved, and the few ministers who originally wrote the letter looked bitter. If they continue, they will be enemies of most of the court.

If they are fully confident, they can continue to submit the letter. After all, the decision-making power is ultimately in the hands of His Majesty, but... the group of people outside the palace can already influence His Majesty's decision.

Your Majesty, you can be said to be the emperor who cared the most about public opinion in all dynasties.

From the point of view that "the people are more important than the emperor" he put forward later, we can actually see something.

Fang Xuanling smiled at the corner of his mouth, he didn't expect this result, so he didn't need to argue with reason.

Li Shimin thought for a while, and said, "Opening Xu's supermarket in the Tang Dynasty is indeed an act of benefiting the people. All the ministers generously donate money to help him realize this wish as soon as possible, which can be regarded as serving the country and the people. Let's let this matter go."

A smoke of gunpowder disappeared in the invisible.

After the news came out, there was a shout of His Majesty's sage outside the palace.

Li Shimin smiled, and he agreed to the word "benefit to the country and the people" in Xu's Supermarket. If he restricts the expansion of Xu's Supermarket, wouldn't that mean slapping himself in the face?

However, he didn't expect Xu Jiazi to be so cunning, to use such a new thing as "franchising" to develop Xu's supermarket rapidly. He heard that Xu Jiazi called these franchised stores chain stores, which is also novel.

Li Shimin looked up and looked outside. He also hoped that Xu's Supermarket could bring convenience to the people all over the world soon.

……

At this time, Xu Changsheng was riding a big white to check the progress of the decoration of the three new stores.

The craftsmen carry out the decoration according to the drawings given by him.

In cities other than Chang'an, after the franchisees have selected the location of the store, they will also be decorated according to the drawings he gave.

Don't underestimate these craftsmanship, as long as the drawings given are careful enough, they will be able to make them out.

Running on the hot streets of Chang'an, Xu Changsheng unexpectedly saw quite a few people holding their Xu family's new Coke and herbal tea.

From time to time, I take a sip with a smile on my face, and there is still white smoke that has been frozen at the mouth of the bottle.

Xu Changsheng also smiled. People in Datang finally drank Coke and herbal tea. Of course, there were also many people who ate popsicles. The weirdest thing was drinking Coke and eating popsicles. I don’t know what it was like.

Datang, it has already begun to be a little different, but this is only the beginning, and it will get better and better.

Xu Changsheng came to the newly renovated shop.

Because the people behind it are Fang Xiang and the prince, the craftsmanship is particularly meticulous.

Xu Changsheng took a look, and found that they were exactly the same, without any difference.

The shelves for placing the goods have been moved here, and the checkout counter has also been installed. It seems that it will not be long before it can open for business.

He had to ask his uncle to urge his grandfather to increase the production of all the goods.

Now that there is a pulley block, oil extraction does not require a group of uncles to lift the boulder up and down every time, and the efficiency is also greatly improved.

In this way, there will be more bean dregs, and more dried tofu will be made.

It's a virtuous circle.

It's just that my grandpa may have to worry about what to do with the useless bean dregs after making bean curds and dried beans. Even if they raise chickens and pigs, they probably can't finish them.

Thinking about it, the scale of chicken and pig farming must also be expanded, otherwise it would be a pity to watch the bean dregs go bad.

Xu Changsheng inspected around before leaving.

In the past few days, a large amount of oil, dried tofu, pencils, etc. have been transported from Xujia Village for the opening of three new stores.

Of course, there are popular science books for children, chicken feet with pickled peppers, etc., so their products are piled up in large quantities.

It is worth mentioning that his popular science books for children sold very well. Apart from being interested in the content of the book, many children clamored to buy it because it is colorful and has a pleasing style of painting.

Goods were continuously being transported to Chang'an, and three large shops were added at once, and the shipment volume can be imagined.

It went on like this for several days.

Finally, on a sunny day, three supermarkets announced their opening.

The same door plaque, the same potted flowers to welcome guests, the same layout, and the same shop.

Speaking of flowers, Xu Changsheng observed them carefully, and it was almost time for cuttings.

When he finishes his work, he will teach his uncles to make cuttings, so that... one pot of flowers can be turned into several pots, and there will be no shortage of goods due to the decoration of the new store and the recent sales.

On the opening day, the whole street was so lively that the whole street was decorated with lights and festoons. It was voluntary by the people. Think about how happy the supermarket is near their home. They used to be willing to go across the city to have a look, but now they can see it however they want.

Because it was the first day, there were huge crowds of people, and the people who had already been trained were very busy. On the first day, I had to apply for membership for these people.

After the [-]% discount, the faces of people who bought the goods were all smiling, as if they had taken advantage of the sky.

Like popsicles, I couldn’t bring them here in the West Market before, so they were so rare that they weren’t enough to sell, so I hurriedly called people to Xu’s to replenish them, and they could replenish them several times a day, so the people in the Xu’s were busy all day. one day.

So many goods were looted on the first day, not a drop of oil was left, and not a single chicken foot was left.

Of course, in order to avoid suspicion, Fangfu and Donggong did not directly participate in the opening. Although everyone knows that the people behind these three new stores are the prince and Fangxiang, but the rules are like this, and it cannot be broken. Business is not allowed.

After Fang Xuanling bowed down, she returned home.

In the evening, the income from Xu's Supermarket's one-day business was sent over.

Fang Xiang's family looked at the currency that was brought in, and they were all dumbfounded.

How can there be so many?

It's just for one day.

Fang Xuanling was a little worried, even if his family and the old servants added the amount of money, they would not be able to count it all in one night.

The goods in the Xujia Supermarket are all daily necessities, and the prices are all settled in copper coins, and the money given is also scattered, so it looks particularly large when piled up.

One tael of silver is equal to one thousand copper plates.Think about it, when will this be counted, it will be all copper plates.

"Master, why don't we buy some servants to count the money?" The old servant suggested.

Fang Xuanling's body trembled, his life is clear, if it spreads that his house specially buys servants to count the money...

But what else?Are they really counting by themselves every day?This is just the first day.

Sighing, "Remember to buy a clean life, with clean hands and feet."

Fang Xuanling sighed a few more times. He didn't expect that a Xujia supermarket could earn so much in a day. All the goods came from Xujia Village, which meant that Xujia Village was the one that earned the most.

He didn't know why his heart suddenly tightened. He seemed to have forgotten something very important, but he couldn't think of it for a while.

This is only one Xu family supermarket, but Prince Li Chengqian has two supermarkets.

Tonight, the lights in the East Palace were not extinguished, and they were counting money in the middle of the night.

Although they are all pennies, they are happy no matter how they are counted.
