Ye Baizhi pondered and said, "I guess all the good stalls are rented out. It doesn't matter if it's a little out of the way. Good wine needs no bush."
"Besides, it's getting late looking at the stalls, so we might as well set up our stalls early."
The stalls here are only open for one morning.
Generally, everyone packs up their stalls after noon.
Because many beastmen come early in the morning to buy things.
Some orcs representing the tribe bought things and went back in the afternoon.
Some are wandering orcs who also buy things in the morning and go back in the afternoon.
Therefore, the beastmen who set up stalls usually close their stalls in the afternoon.
Over time, some rules have been formed.
Everyone closes their stalls after noon, so they can do other things in the afternoon.
Only the shops next to the market are open in the afternoon.
The store will close in the evening.
The shops here don't open at night because candles for lighting are not popular here.
And for ordinary orcs, candles are very expensive.
It is not cost-effective to open the shop at night and light candles.
Therefore, in the Beast World tribe, the orcs continue the habit of working from sunrise to sunset and resting from sunset to sunrise.
“Let’s hurry up and set up the stall!”
"It's winter now, and there was a little snow yesterday. If the weather gets colder and the mountains are closed due to heavy snow, there will be even fewer orcs coming out to buy and exchange things."
Ye Wulan said gently: "Okay, I'll listen to you!"
Since they had decided to set up a stall, they went to the guardhouse to pay the stall rent.
After receiving a stall jade token, you can pack up the stall and set up the stall.
Each stall has a huge stone table for everyone to place their things.
Ye Baizhi, Ye Wulan and Dabao first put the candied haws on the straw rack at home.
"Tanghulu is low-cost, so we can try selling it first."
"You can also walk back and forth with a straw stand and introduce our innermost stall to customers."
"These are cut into small pieces so that everyone can taste them for free."
Ye Baizhi knew that there were no sweets here, and naturally there was no such thing as candied haws.
This makes it easier for her to do business as she has no competitors at all.
However, people have a low acceptance of new things, so we still have to let everyone try them for free at the beginning.
"Once everyone likes eating candied haws, there are more customers, and they are familiar with our stall, we will sell other things."
There is no rush to sell those fruit leather tomato sauces and canned foods.
Let’s sell candied haws first and see how the market responds.
Dabao looked at the candied haws with sparkling eyes. Feeling a little hungry, he pointed at the candied haws on the straw rack and said, "Mom, I want to eat some!"
No matter what Dabao wants to eat, he won’t just take it. He will discuss it with his mother.
Of course he also wanted to tell Uncle Ye, because Uncle Ye would spoil him and give him whatever he wanted to eat.
But in the end, Daddy Ye listened to Mom, so he could only ask Mom.
Ye Baizhi thought for a moment and said, "Don't eat it yet. Let's go to the market. Mother will let you eat it later."
When we go to the market, Dabao will eat candied haws next to the candied haws rack so that customers can see it, which will create a good eating broadcast effect.
Dabao nodded obediently, "Dabao listens to mother."
Dabao also knew that they needed to earn spirit stones now that they were living outside, so he wanted to help.
…
When they arrived at their stall, it was already daybreak and the sun was out.
Everyone also put out their things one after another.
The stalls near Ye Baizhi sell wild animal meat, wild animal fur, bone knives, wooden products, umbrellas, oil paper, herbs, wild fruits, etc.
She also saw orcs selling salt at a stall in the middle with a good location.
There were many beastmen visiting the market, and many people gathered in front of the salt stalls.
Everyone is looking at the salt.
In fact, salt is something that everyone in every tribe must eat.
There was plenty of salt in her farmyard, enough for them to use temporarily, so there was no need to buy more.
Moreover, the salt used here is coarse salt, not fine enough and very expensive.
"How's the price of salt over there?"
Ye Wulan has excellent hearing, so if he concentrates and listens carefully, he can hear the sound over there clearly.
"Two hundred blue spirit stones for one pound of salt."
Ye Baizhi was shocked. "I knew salt was expensive, but I didn't expect it to be this expensive."
"I charge two blue spirit stones for a string of candied haws."
Ye Wulan said gently, "Even if it's very expensive, everyone should buy it. Besides, there's no salt in the North District. All the salt comes from the East and South Districts. These salts may only cost a little over a hundred blue spirit stones per pound in the East and South Districts, but they're much more expensive in the North District."
Ye Baizhi nodded, "I know there are shipping costs, but they won't be doubled."
“That’s tantamount to a monopoly.”
“No wonder other districts are more prosperous than the North District.”
She remembered that when she was in the tribe, she said that some meats could be preserved for a long time by pickling them with salt, but no one knew how to pickle them with salt.
For the people in the tribe, salt is an extremely precious thing.
Even at home, they only have a small jar.
However, she usually doesn't use salt from home when cooking. She uses salt from the kitchen in the space farmyard.
Ye Wulan probably understood what Ye Baizhi meant by monopoly.
Ye Baizhi saw that many people were wearing tattered animal skins, but they had to carefully carry wild animal meat to the stall just to buy a pound of salt, and then carefully put it in their arms.
She couldn't stand this situation, so she quickly looked away and said, "If the North District had any unique specialties that other districts didn't have, the North District would be able to catch up with the other districts."
While Ye Baizhi and Ye Wulan were talking, a woman dressed very elegantly and with her child happened to be buying wild fruits at a nearby stall. Seeing their stall, she paused and asked curiously, "Little sister, there are red fruits everywhere on the mountain. Why are you selling them here?"
