Hua Hanbin looked at this store and found it very strange and rare.
"My sister is really resourceful. I didn't expect that she could decorate the store like this."
Qiu Wenqin also nodded continuously and said, "It's indeed good."
“This way we can sell the braised food and sit on the chairs in the back.”
"That way you don't have to stand all the time!"
Hua Hanmao walked to the back of the counter and sat down. "Sitting like this also makes me feel very high up. I don't have to look up when talking to customers."
When I set up a stall before, I couldn’t sit down at all in order to sell braised ham sausages and other things.
When sitting, you have to look up to communicate with customers, which is very inconvenient and uncomfortable.
It feels very comfortable now, and it feels very relaxed sitting here.
Hua Xinuo said, "I had it renovated according to the drawings."
"The back of the bar is raised a bit, and the chairs are also higher, so sitting here is almost the same as standing."
This store is not very big, just like the braised food stores in the technological age.
When the door opens, everyone can see clearly what is placed on the bar inside.
There was no glass at that time, so Hua Xinuo asked someone to make a wooden grid to put things inside.
Everyone can see clearly what is inside, which makes it convenient for shopping.
And the decoration style is all log style.
There was plenty of wood in that era, so we hired carpenters and villagers to do this, and it didn't cost much.
And it was done very well.
Even the outer dirt walls were boarded up.
Hua Xinuo then decorated it with some flowers, plants and bamboo, making it look very stylish.
The road in front of the store is also paved with cobblestone.
There are some rattan chairs at the door. Some customers come to buy things. If there are many people, they can sit at the door for a while.
In fact, if it is renovated a little more, it can be turned into a coffee shop.
Unfortunately, most people in this era are still struggling to make ends meet, so they naturally wouldn’t think of sitting down and drinking coffee.
Not to mention there's no coffee.
But Hua Xinuo thought about opening a door on the side so that she could make and sell cold drinks in the summer.
As long as you have saltpeter, you can make ice.
Qiu Wenqin smiled and asked, "By the way, my dear, if we open the store tomorrow, do we need to organize any promotional activities?"
Hua Xinuo often said this word, so Qiu Wenqin understood it.
Hua Xinuo nodded and said, "Of course we have to organize some activities."
"I'll have someone publicize it tomorrow morning."
Although these days, when they go to the dock to set up a stall to sell braised food and soap, they also promote it to old customers and tell them that they will open a braised food store across the street in the future.
You can go there to buy braised food from morning to evening, the shops are always open.
No need to rush to buy braised soap in the morning or at noon.
Actually, they closed the stall after selling out in the morning.
After selling things at noon, I closed the stall.
Some people wanted to buy their things in the afternoon or evening, but couldn't buy them.
They couldn't just sit there at the dock forever.
There is still something to do in the afternoon.
It’s different with a store.
Hua Hanmao frowned and said, "Many customers told us before that it was too troublesome to go to the other side to buy things, and we don't know if they will take the boat to come here."
Although there is a river between them, the river is very wide and you need to take a boat to go back and forth.
Hua Hanmao knows his sister's abilities.
I also know that every time he sets up a stall, his worries are in vain.
My sister always finds a way to sell things.
But he still couldn't help but think too much.
Hua Xinuo knew that her elder brother was steady and caring.
Hua Xinuo said, "Everyone thinks it's troublesome at first, but if they come once and find it's not as troublesome as they imagined, they will come to the store a second and third time to buy things."
"A lot of people are still asking if we still have those stuffed dolls, and they want to win them in a raffle, or even buy them. So I told them we'd have a raffle when we opened the store."
"Everything is half price for the first three days of the store opening."
They make money even if things are half price.
The reason why the first three days are half price is to open the store.
Once the store is back on track, the original price can be restored later.
It will be convenient to open another store.
Anyway, they bought the mud house and renovated it. There was enough space to open three stores.
It's much cheaper than at the pier.
So things are half price, which is also a good deal.
You should know that buying a store at the dock costs hundreds of taels of silver.
By opening a shop at the entrance of the village, you can save money on the storefront alone.
Hua Xinuo thought for a moment and said, "I'm thinking of hiring Brother Lin Song's boat, and adding my father's boat, to transport customers to the dock here for free for the first three days."
Hua Hanmao's expression changed, his eyes lit up and he said, "That's a good idea. I'll row the boat."
Hua Xinuo smiled and said, "When the time comes, I'll have to trouble Big Brother to row our boat."
Hua Hanmao touched his sister's hair and said, "Sister, why should you be polite to your brother?"
"As the eldest brother, I should do more for the family."
It’s just that his sister is too capable on weekdays, so he, as her brother, doesn’t do anything.
Hua Xinuo blinked and said, "Big Brother and Second Brother have already done a lot."
The eldest and second brothers are the ones who usually rush to do all the physical work at home.
It was about making soap. After the eldest and second brothers learned how to make it, she was no longer needed to do it.
After staying in the store for a while and closing the door, they went home.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the house, I saw a lot of people standing there.
Everyone was talking at once.
There is also the village head's daughter-in-law, Ms. Jian.
