Shengfa Department Store only does wholesale and not retail. Yang Xuan deliberately let it go, otherwise there would be no way for the new merchants to make money.
After all, the most important point is that he wants to control the prices on the grassland through this Shengfa Department Store.
After all, Yang Xuan did not engage in trade and exchange to improve the living standards of the grassland people.
After Fan Jian and You Gui obtained their business qualification certificates, they led the old horse and dragged the cart, and limped into the depths of the grassland.
Spring has begun at this time, and the grass on the grassland has just sprouted. Although it is not lush, it is full of the breath of life, which makes Fan Jian and You Gui feel comfortable.
I used to live in a small village outside Yingtian Mansion, and I couldn't go into the city, so I could only wander around the villages and towns and do some small business.
With their experience and brains, they had no worries about food and clothing, but there was always a feeling of depression.
Until they came to this grassland, all the suppressed emotions were gone. They looked at each other and both showed happy smiles. They came to the right grassland.
The scenery on this grassland is indeed beautiful and the air is fresh, but there is one drawback: it is too big and too empty. The two of them walked for three days and didn't see a single person.
They didn't bring much dry food. If they didn't meet the tribe in another two days, they would have to return.
However, just when the two of them were a little disappointed, they saw a large herd of sheep in the distance.
The two were overjoyed and quickly speeded up.
But before they could get close to the sheep, there was a whoosh, and an arrow flew past them, followed by a snow-white horse galloping towards them.
"Who are you?"
A sweet shout came, and sitting on the horse was a girl on the grassland. Her red face had a trace of heroism, and her braids on her head were flicked, making her look even more sassy.
Fan Jian, who was still panicked, suddenly had a smile on his face, jumped down from the carriage, and said with cupped hands: "Girl, we are merchants from Dasheng. We are new here and don't understand the rules. If we bump into the girl, we will be punished."
Please atone for your sins.”
The grassland girl originally had her bow and arrow nocked, but when she saw that both of them were lame and were merchants from Da Sheng, she immediately relaxed her vigilance.
"It turns out we are merchants. What a coincidence. I heard there is a market in the south and we are about to go there. Now that I have met you, I don't have to make a trip. You can come with me."
"Thank you, girl."
The two of them drove a carriage, leisurely following the girl's white horse, and walked into the distance. They walked for most of the day, and it wasn't until the sun was almost setting that they saw a tent.
There was a fence outside the tent. Children were playing in the fence, and some adults were working, shouting and driving cattle, sheep and horses into the fence.
Someone saw the girl's white horse and started to say hello from afar: "Zalunbi, you are back, eh? Who is behind you?"
"Uncle Hulugan, this is a businessman from Dasheng. Please call him out quickly."
When Fan Jian and the two drove a carriage to the tent, they were surrounded by people who cheered.
The two people quickly got out of the car and prepared to open the stall. However, when everyone saw that their legs and feet were not convenient, they directly helped the two people to sit down and arranged for two people to carry the goods for them.
After all the goods on the carriage were placed, everyone gathered around again and asked about the price.
Fan Jian and the other two were so moved by the simplicity and enthusiasm of the prairie people that in a short time most of the items in the car were sold, and some items were left unsold. It was really because they had no money.
After all, this is a grassland, and there is nowhere to spend the money.
Later, Zalumbi proposed bartering for goods, and then they saw the prairie people exchange some fine sheepskins with them.
The price difference was so large that both Fan Jian and You Gui were a little embarrassed.
But the grassland people didn't care about this and bought all the goods in Fan Jian's car.
The two of them packed a bag full of money, as well as half a cart full of sheepskins, kumiss and cheese.
After the transaction was completed, it was completely dark, and Zalumbi brought out food to entertain the two people. The enthusiastic two people were a little overwhelmed. Unfortunately, they didn't bring anything good when they came, so they had to eat and drink in silence.
Finally, when everyone dispersed, Fan Jian took out a small bell and put it into Zalenbi's hand.
Zalumbi looked at the little bell in his hand with surprise, then looked at Fan Jian.
Fan Jian explained: "This is a gift for you. You have so many little braids on your head. If there is a small bell strung on each braid, when you run on the white horse, it will jingle."
, how interesting that would be.”
Zalumbi suddenly flashed his big eyes, and the scene of him riding a white horse galloping on the grassland appeared in his mind. A series of bells rang, and then he appeared on the stage. It seemed really interesting.
Looking at the smile on Zalumbi's face, Fan Jian also smiled. This is a trick he has learned since he started doing business. A small favor can bind your relationship with your customers, and others will take care of your business next time.
But little girl Zalenbi smiled, suddenly turned red, and returned the little bells to Fan Jian.
"I can't accept your gift."
Because her little face was already red, Fan Jian didn't notice the little girl's shyness at all, and stuffed the bell into Zalumbi's hand: "Look, you helped me so much today, and you even invited me to dinner."
Drinking kumis, this is a gift to thank you, you won’t mind it, right?”
Zalumbi was stunned. It turned out to be just a thank you gift. She quickly said: "I don't dislike it, I just helped you a little bit. How can I be embarrassed to accept your gift?"
"Don't say that. Once it's new, it will be familiar again. I will bring you a better gift next time I come."
"Then thank you, uncle."
"What uncle? I'm only twenty-four."
"Ah, I'm sorry, uncle." Zalumbi smiled and ran away and went home.
You Gui on the side rolled his eyes: "If you want to do business, just do business. Why are you provoking this little girl? Be careful if they take you back to get married."
"Lao You, what you said is wrong. Why did I provoke others? Isn't this how we did business when we were in Yingtian Mansion?"
"whispering sound."
You Gui didn't bother to argue with him and turned around to pack up the tent.
But after he said this, Fan Jian fell into deep thought. This little girl is innocent and pretty, but it's a pity that she is from the grassland. Otherwise, it would be nice to marry her back.
Early the next morning, they said goodbye to the enthusiastic prairie people and started their return journey.
Even if they passed last night, not counting those sheepskins and kumiss, they also made nearly double the profit on this trip. If they sold those sheepskins later, it would be a good amount of money.
On the way back, they discussed that they must bring more goods next time. There is a real shortage of supplies on this grassland, and anything can be sold.
Even the small clay stove they used to light a fire for cooking on the road was replaced with a sheepskin.
Originally, they were planning to give it to someone directly, but someone else just stuffed a sheepskin into their carriage.
It only took seven or eight days to make this round, and I made more profits than the previous month.
This business has been done well.
Their eyes were full of longing for a better life in the future.
This is also the common feeling of those who have just come to the grassland to do business.
