Smaller merchants would bring along fellow villagers, and those villagers would bring along relatives, forming a small traveling merchant team.

Larger chambers of commerce not only exclude those from the same hometown, but also form groups to exclude newcomers.

Even if the newcomer is from the same hometown, once they achieve success in business, it will take them three to five years.

In addition, with the help of acquaintances, becoming a member of the Chamber of Commerce is extremely difficult.

The best example is the two shopkeepers on Zhuque Street under Jiang Shuwan's command.

Having been in business for decades and owning a respectable shop, he is now just an ordinary member of the business community.

Brother Nai, on the other hand, has only been in business for a few days, and he was immediately accepted into the Chamber of Commerce and even elected as its vice president.

Despite being parachuted in like this, no one disliked him.

He gained a lot of respect, and when he was extremely busy, everyone would take the initiative to help him.

To this day, both shopkeepers still feel quite envious and jealous of Brother Milk.

If they also have career plans, their plans are to expand and strengthen their shops, make a lot of money, and then be elected as the president of the chamber of commerce.

Brother Nai's starting point is too high.

They walked straight to their finish line.

They'd be jealous even in their wildest dreams.

Brother Nai wasn't arrogant at all; he knew better than anyone how he got his vice president position.

He not only frequently consulted and learned from these merchants, but also shared stories about the shop with Jiang Shuwan whenever he had free time.

Jiang Shuwan doesn't come often, so there are some things that require her decision and she needs to be informed.

"Brother Nai is right, thank you very much."

Jiang Shuwan nodded.

That's why she didn't continue running the shop.

She didn't have enough people to accompany her as part of her dowry.

If you want to open a shop, you need to buy people.

Since food is something that goes into the mouth, the staff hired by the shop must be handled with great care.

Investigating the other party's background is the bare minimum.

She found it troublesome.

She herself was not short of money, especially since she made eight thousand taels of silver from buying and selling houses and shops in the West Market.

She had no intention of opening another shop.

Her focus remained on managing the household.

The profits from the shop were her pocket money.

If you lose it all, you can always earn more.

He really puts too much thought into things, while also having to take care of all the affairs of the Marquis's mansion.

Just thinking about it makes me feel exhausted.

She won't do it.

As soon as Nai Ge saw her like this, he knew she was suffering from a bout of laziness.

Despite Jiang Shuwan's careful planning and steady progress in the Marquis's mansion, which has led her to her current position, she is not fooled.

Deep down, she's still a lazy bum.

I always think about taking the time to be lazy.

If it were someone else, they would have opened seventeen or eighteen stores and made a fortune.

Whenever Jiang Shuwan had a spare moment, she would lie down and take a nap.

Milk Brother felt a surge of "disappointment at their lack of ambition" in his heart.

When he was at the Jiang residence, he discovered that Jiang Shuwan was a lazy bum.

Otherwise, with her intelligence and ambition, she would have crushed Jiang Yao long ago.

It's not like Jiang Yao has the right to jump around like that all the time.

Like a clown.

Miss, you're so lazy.

Nai Ge mentally complained that Jiang Shuwan had sharp eyes and had known him since childhood.

One glance at him and I knew what he was thinking.

Why!

It's not that she wanted to slack off!

She would have died from overwork in modern times.

The struggle for control of the household was for survival, for establishing a foothold in the Marquis's mansion.

If it weren't for the Wen family, who schemed against her every day, trying to trample her into the mud and torment her at will.

She couldn't be bothered to fight for the right to manage the household.

Lying down is so nice!

Salted fish is so good!

The baby is suffering!

I was forced to work hard!

Pain masking~

Jiang Shuwan silently wiped away a tear of bitterness in her heart.

Life was too hard, so I quickly drank a couple more sips of tea to reward myself.

"It smells so good!"

The Da Hong Pao tea, which is only produced in two kilograms a year, is delicious.

No wonder the Wen family has been trying every possible way to get it back these past two days.

pity.

Once it's in her pocket, how can you take it out?

"Brother Nai, you've been working hard lately. Have some of this tea."

Jiang Shuwan and Brother Nai poured each other a cup.

Brother Nai shook his head repeatedly. It was one thing for Jiang Shuwan to be close to him, but he dared not drink this tea.

Jiang Shuwan didn't force anyone; everyone has their own way of surviving.

"Miss, recently a few milk tea shops have opened in the East, South and North markets."

"Are you stealing our business?"

Jiang Shuwan hadn't paid attention to this matter.

Brother Nai shook his head repeatedly.

"No, not at all. Not to mention our shop, even other milk tea shops run by other merchants in the West Market are doing very well."

“Those newly opened shops taste much worse than ours, and the market is so big, they don’t bother us at all.”

Milk tea was a novel food in the Great Jing Dynasty.

Customer demand is high, exceeding supply.

Basically, everyone here has no worries about business.

"But if this continues, their tastes will definitely improve over time."

"With them opening stores one after another, the merchants in the West Market are afraid that they will take away our market share."

Brother Nai said this in a rather relaxed manner.

Because their shop has the best business on the entire milk tea street.

Moreover, Jiang Shuwan would come up with a new idea every now and then, like making some kind of fruit tea.

The store has a much wider variety of products than other stores.

It's useless for other businesses to follow their example. As the first to try something new, their shop is the number one leader in the milk tea street.

Anyone who can get a spot at their house will go there.

They only go to other families when they can't get a spot at their own.

You could say it doesn't matter how many more stores you open.

He can guarantee that their business will continue to thrive.

"Then why are you in such a hurry?"
