Chapter 473: Attack
Li Yun looked at Zhang Juexia nervously, and then looked at Li Yiran. Her meaning was very clear, she just didn't want the two of them to go out.
Even though Li Yiran was a smart person, she understood what Li Yun meant at this moment, "Sister-in-law Yang, Juexia and I have such a good relationship, I will naturally pay attention to her safety.
My shop is not far ahead. If two people walk, we can get there in half an hour."
Zhang Juexia finally found an opportunity to go out, how could he miss it? He also came over to persuade Li Yun, "Sister-in-law Yang, if you are worried, just follow us."
Li Yun had no choice but to compromise, "Madam, it's not that I'm too cautious, but Master has been telling me so many times that my ears are almost callused."
"I understand, I understand. After all, your master loves his wife!"
Li Yiran blinked at Zhang Juexia and said, "Mrs. Ye, let's go!"
"Walk!"
At Li Yun's insistence, he still got on his own carriage.
Lin Yuan was under tremendous pressure to drive the car, and he was always alert to avoid the potholes on the road. It took him about half a minute to walk the short distance.
Li Yiran jumped off the carriage and muttered, "If I had known earlier, we would have walked here. I almost fell asleep sitting in your carriage."
Zhang Juexia also complained to Lin Yuan, "You are too cautious. Doctor Liu said that I am fine. You don't believe my words, but you should believe the doctor's words!"
Lin Yuan scratched his head innocently, "Madam, we dare not disobey the master's words."
Zhang Juexia was really speechless. She planned to have a good talk with Ye Beixiu about this matter in the evening.
She stood at the door of Li Yiran's shop and looked for a few seconds before following Li Yiran into the shop.
"Your shop is really big! It's bright inside."
"That's right. My mother put a lot of effort into setting up this shop for me.
Juexia, look, there is a two-story house in the back. Although it is a little smaller than where you live now, my shop in front is much more spacious than yours.
My mother bought it because she liked it."
Zhang Juexia listened to Li Yiran talking while looking through the things in the shop. The shop assistant was waiting nervously by the side and would introduce things from time to time.
Zhang Juexia and Li Yiran stayed in the shop for almost half an hour. Only one or two women came in and left without waiting for the clerk to ask them anything.
Li Yiran sighed, "Juexia, you see, my shop has very little business. I've been here every day for a while, but there's no business!
It’s really frustrating.”
Zhang Juexia pointed outside and asked, "Yiran, what's the street in front of your shop for?"
“It should be considered a market, with people coming and going every day.
Farmers living close to the county town will bring the vegetables, eggs and other products they grow at home here to sell.
There are also some small businesses that sell steamed buns, steamed bread, noodles, etc. They are all small businessmen.
"How about we go and take a look?"
"good!"
Zhang Juexia and Li Yiran, followed by Li Yun, walked around the market together. It was indeed lively inside and there were quite a lot of people.
After walking around, Li Yun decided, "Madam, I didn't even know there was a market here. Tomorrow I will let Erniu accompany me to buy vegetables here.
The food here is not only fresh but also cheap!"
Zhang Juexia smiled and said, "After all, there are no middlemen here to make a profit. These farmers probably bring their goods here and want to sell them immediately, and then use the money to buy other daily necessities."
While Zhang Juexia was chatting and laughing, she did not forget to observe. She mainly wanted to see what kind of people came here to buy things.
Li Yiran helped her decipher the secret. "Most of the people who come here to buy things are women who live in the area around my shop, and some are managers from wealthy families."
After Zhang Juexia understood what was going on, they returned to Li Yiran's shop.
After she briefly discussed some of the questions in her mind with the guy, she felt that her thoughts were correct.
"Yi Ran, can you return these silks and satins in your shop?"
"You can return it. Just take it to my great aunt's shop."
"Then you should return it tomorrow and then add some ordinary cotton and linen cloth. You don't need too many colors, just a few household items will do."
"Why?"
Li Yiran found it a little unbelievable. She had specially selected these silks and satins from the Xu Family Cloth Shop just to give her shop a good reputation. "Juexia, if I didn't have these, no one would come to my shop."
Zhang Juexia pointed at the shop assistant and said, "Yi Ran, ask the shop assistant why I did this."
The young man was stunned. With a red face, he repeated to Li Yiran what he had just said to Zhang Juexia.
"Boss, if you don't believe me, you can look at the account book. In our shop, just as this lady said, only ordinary cotton and linen are the best sellers."
"I was careless. I only looked at the daily profits in the account book, and I really didn't see which goods were selling well!"
Zhang Juexia reminded Li Yiran, "Hurry up and write this down. Next time you'll know how to read the account book."
Zhang Juexia stood in the middle of the shop again and said, "If you remove those silks and satins, this large space will be free.
When the time comes, you can ask a carpenter to build a shelf for this place and put the soap on it.
I'll give you some of the cheapest oils and other things in my shop, and you can just put them up for sale.
You don't have to pay me first, you can settle the bill after you sell it."
Li Yiran was so happy when she heard Zhang Juexia's words that she almost jumped up again, "Juexia, you are so kind, you..."
"Okay, don't be so happy too soon. I haven't finished what I'm saying yet. Let's settle the bill once a month.
Mr. Li, what do you think?
"Okay, whatever you say, I'll do whatever you want."
Zhang Juexia suggested going to the backyard. Seeing the empty backyard, she asked Li Yiran, "Are you planning to leave it empty?"
"I want to use it, but there's a shop in front, and I don't want to rent it out anymore, so this is the only way."
"Yi Ran, let me ask you something. You might have found a few embroiderers. Actually, their embroidery skills don't have to be too good. They just need to be able to embroider some simple patterns. The most important thing is that they have good needlework."
Li Yiran thought for a moment and said, "It should be possible. Juexia, do you have any new ideas?"
“Well, the purses made by my Jinshui Town workshop are too expensive to be sold in your shop.
I thought, I can provide you with a few simple patterns, and you can make them with the fabrics in your shop and sell them in your shop."
