Chapter 357 Someone wants to trick her
Not far away, Feng was looking around, and had already seen the woman's sly face.
She came over and said a few perfunctory words.
"Oh? Really? That's true, thank you for telling me." After that, she took Li Qiqiao away. After
walking away for a while, Li Qiqiao whispered, "Mom, what the woman said may not be completely true, but we can't ignore it. Once the business here is really bad, we must be cautious when opening a store."
Feng smiled but said nothing.
She just pulled her forward and strolled.
"Mom, where are we going?" Li Qiqiao was feeling confused.
Feng patted her shoulder, "Don't worry, mom will teach you how to be more careful, come with mom."
At a street corner not far away, at this time, a few vendors carrying baskets were stopping to rest.
Feng took a look at them and picked out an honest-looking one, and then went forward to buy two fans.
The peddler was very surprised, it was rare for someone to buy fans in the middle of winter, so he quickly picked out two of the most delicate ones, "Take them, ladies, a total of twenty coins."
Feng took them and asked casually, "You usually go from street to street to sell, and often shout in this area,
right?" "That's right." The peddler was proud, "Only a few of us, who sell more elegant goods, are allowed by the government to shout in Weirui Lane. If it were those who sell baked cakes and buns, I think they wouldn't be able to come."
Seeing that the peddler was talkative, Feng opened her wallet and took out thirty coins for him.
"The extra ten cents will be considered as your reward." Feng said, "I want to ask you something. Just tell me how much you know."
"My family owns a shop on this street. We want to do some calligraphy and painting business. Do you know if this kind of business is easy to do in this area?"
Holding the extra copper coins, the peddler was full of joy.
It's not easy to walk around the streets, and it's even harder to make money in winter. It's rare to have a reward, so how could he not respond happily.
"Madam, you've asked me the right person." The peddler put the money in his waist and jumped twice excitedly. "I've always wanted to have my own shop, so when I'm free, I'll look at these shops. Frankly speaking, the business of selling writing in Weirui Lane is not as prosperous as those of opening restaurants, teahouses, and selling rouge and powder."
After all, wine, food, and cosmetics are needed by most people,
but books and manuals are not necessarily the same.
"But." The peddler changed the subject again, "A skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. Don't forget, this is Weirui Lane. No matter how good the business is, it is impossible not to make money."
Li Qiqiao pointed to her own shop, "Really? But I heard from others that the shop has changed three owners, but each of them lost money."
The peddler laughed when he heard it.
"Absolutely not, unless you were deceived. The previous owner of the shop was clearly going to Bohai City to live with his youngest son, so he reluctantly sold the shop."
Li Qiqiao looked embarrassed.
Only then did he realize that he had been deceived.
The peddler was smart and continued to give advice to the Jiang family.
"After all, there are too many shops selling calligraphy and paper here. Due to the high rent and high prices, the business is relatively poor. If your family sells ink and paper, I really don't recommend it."
"But if you can sell something that others don't have, that would be great. For example, the first shop on the corner sells calligraphy and paintings by famous artists from all over the country. His business is incredibly good. You can learn from him." The peddler said seriously.
Feng and Li Qiqiao kept nodding and soon understood.
To put it bluntly, don't copy others' ideas and don't sell ordinary things.
Fortunately, Feng Jing's comic strips are absolutely unique. No one else can sell them. And they are located in Wei Rui Lane, so business is not difficult.
Xiao Nuobao wandered around the shop for a long time, and when he couldn't see his mother, he pulled Xiao Lanyi over to look for her.
After Mrs. Feng found out, she said goodbye to the peddler with a smile, "Okay, thank you for today, we won't delay your work."
The peddler was sweet-mouthed and bowed immediately.
"Then I also wish your business a good start, and hope that it will be prosperous all the way!"
Mrs. Feng and Li Qiqiao were very happy, because who doesn't like to hear good words?
So she gave him another ten coins as a reward, as a good start.
Xiao Nuobao sat in Xiao Lan's arms, looking at the peddler, and saw that he was in a good position, and within three years, he would be able to turn things around and sit on a golden mountain.
"This little pot pot, you will open your own shop in the future and make a lot of money as a boss!" Xiao Nuobao laughed crisply.
The peddler thought it was just a kid teasing him, but he was also very happy. He picked up the basket and hummed a little song, bowed twice, and continued to shout.
After returning to the shop, he saw that the woman was still secretly staring at him. Li Qiqiao blushed and immediately understood everything.
"Mom, I was too young and almost got fooled." She clutched the corner of her clothes, and was confused for once.
Feng thought it was normal and coaxed him, "Everyone has their moments of confusion. When I was in my twenties, I was not as good as you. At least you still have a shrewd mind. Without the shop, you were overwhelmed by the pressure. You are better than many people."
"If this happens again in the future, remember not to ask your colleagues. Those peddlers walk the streets all day long. They are all gossipers. As long as there is no conflict of interest and they give you some sweet rewards, most of them are willing to do good and tell you the truth." Feng said.
Li Qiqiao was happy again, holding Feng's arm, and silently took note of it in her heart.
Everyone looked around the shop again, and when it was noon, they went to Qincaiju for lunch.
Qin Bu Tong was very happy to learn that the Jiang family was going to do business in Weirui Lane.
When he told him about the conversation with the peddlers in detail, Qin Bu Tong couldn't help laughing.
"You asked the right question to the vendor. Even I, who runs a restaurant here, only care about the business of restaurants and teahouses. I haven't paid attention to the shops selling things for literati over there. I don't know as much as they do."
Qin Caiju is doing a booming business right now. Qin Bu Tong couldn't chat for too long, and was called by the distinguished guests downstairs to get together.
Before going downstairs, he hurriedly hugged Xiao Nuobao. Noticing that the little guy was chubby, he specifically told the waiter to serve more light and non-meaty dishes.
Xiao Nuobao didn't know about this. When the dishes were served, she lay on the table and fiddled with the roasted goose that had been degreased.
"Huh? Why isn't the big goose wearing greasy clothes today?" Xiao Nuobao shook her little head and thought it was strange.
Xiao Lanyi glanced at the waiter's expression and couldn't help but slap the table and laugh.
"Do I need to ask? It must be that Shao'e was afraid that the little girl would get fat, so she took off her clothes."
Hearing that this was referring to her, Xiao Nuobao was about to retort, but when she pinched her fat arms and legs, she immediately drooped and lost her confidence.
Feng felt distressed when she saw this, and hurriedly coaxed her darling, "Don't say that our Nuobao is fat. Even if Nuobao gains another ten pounds, she is still our good baby, the most beautiful little girl!"
