Chapter 67 The Power of Lower-Tier Markets



When I arrived at the vegetable shop, a group of people were already waiting at the door.

She glanced at it briefly and raised an eyebrow.

There were noticeably more people buying groceries today.

Ever since the news spread that the Tiger Head Gang had caused trouble here but was driven away and didn't dare to cause any more trouble, it has been a long time since the incident.

Yun Zhiyi became famous.

Along with her, Yunjian Vegetable Shop also became famous.

Of course, Yunjian Vegetable Shop is famous because its dishes are too expensive.

Many people, upon hearing that she was selling a cabbage for over a hundred coins, would curse her, saying, "She's gone crazy for money."

When they heard that she might have some kind of background, even the Tiger Head Gang didn't dare to cause her any trouble.

I also think she has something wrong with her head.

Whose rich young lady has nothing better to do than show her face in public and sell vegetables on the street?

However, it was precisely because of these various rumors that many people came to West Street to take a look.

Just one glance was enough to make me reluctant to leave.

From morning till night, the whole street is filled with various rich aromas.

Many people were surprised that so many delicious foods had appeared on West Street.

Nowadays, besides fried noodle stalls, many stalls and small restaurants on West Street choose Yunjian Vegetable Shop as their preferred source of ingredients.

Even if the ingredients are expensive, they are only used to enhance the aroma, so not much is needed.

Like pancakes, they are also very popular when simply shredded cabbage is added.

Even if the price of the pancakes doesn't increase, if many people buy them, the cost can be recovered and there will still be a surplus.

Not to mention restaurants and taverns.

Unlike large restaurants, they don't need to maintain a consistent menu.

All you need to do is attract as many passersby as possible to come and eat.

The food is affordable and delicious, so of course there are many repeat customers.

Then one leads two, and two lead three.

This made West Street increasingly lively.

With more people, all the stalls and shops will do good business.

The better the business, the more ingredients they buy, and new tourists will also buy some vegetables to try out of curiosity.

This experience can lead to one person influencing an entire family.

One family can influence an entire district, and ten can spread the word to a hundred.

This has led to a growing shortage of Yun Zhiyi's dishes recently.

Yesterday, she sold out of vegetables before noon.

I added a little more food today, but it still doesn't seem to be enough.

The restaurant owner at the end of the street arrived early with two employees to queue up.

Seeing more and more people, I felt a little anxious.

Thinking that I might have to call my family over tomorrow to make up the numbers, I'm buying some groceries to stock up now.

When Tao Xingshun and his son arrived, they were astonished to see the long queue outside the vegetable shop that stretched almost to the end of the street.

"So many people!" Tao Ping exclaimed in astonishment.

Tao Xingshun looked at the long queue and Yun Zhiyi chopping vegetables, lost in thought.

Good wine needs no bush.

“But these vegetables aren’t cheap.” Tao Ping glanced at the line and noticed that most of the people buying vegetables were dressed in coarse cloth short clothes.

These people rarely buy groceries as a group.

Not only cabbage can be mixed together, but cucumbers, eggplants, radishes, and other similar items can also be mixed in half.

Even so, it will cost a lot of money.

It's understandable if it happens only once in a while.

However, if this happens every day, it can be a significant expense for a family.

For people at the bottom of society, the desire for food is the least important thing. So why are these people willing to spend a lot of money to buy vegetables that are dispensable?

Besides, it's not a season of vegetable shortages now, so if we're not concerned about taste and flavor...

If you want to eat vegetables, you can simply buy regular vegetables.

This is why they target their customers directly as restaurants or wealthy households when selling vegetables.

They didn't even consider selling to ordinary restaurants.

Therefore, Tao Ping was quite puzzled when he saw the lively scene before him.

A nearby stall owner overheard their conversation and couldn't help but chuckle.

"The vegetables are expensive, but they're worth it. Ordinary people like us can't afford such good vegetables under normal circumstances."

Tao Ping turned his head and nodded, "That makes sense."

Vegetables this delicious and of such high quality are usually only affordable to the wealthy and powerful.

Ordinary people wouldn't even have the chance to glance at it, let alone buy it.

"It's fine if it's just for trying something new, but it seems like everyone comes to buy it every day. I've never seen so many people who love vegetables before."

The stall owner said, "We can grow our own vegetables at home and rarely buy them outside. But can homegrown vegetables be the same as those from Yunjian? Dishes made with Yunjian vegetables are just as good as those from restaurants. We don't have the chance to go to restaurants, so buying some vegetables for the whole family to enjoy is good, don't you think?"

“Yes, don’t be fooled by the high price of vegetables. When you break them down, it’s not so bad. A pound of cabbage, along with other vegetables, can feed a whole family for a day. It’s more satisfying than eating meat. Do you think it’s worth the 15 coins?” the stall owner next door chimed in.

The father and son exchanged a glance, and it seemed to make a lot of sense.

The menu prices are high, but the cost can be afforded by ordinary families when broken down.

Many people here have never eaten at a restaurant before.

Although the father and son never went to fancy restaurants, they did frequent small restaurants quite a few times.

I feel that no matter what dish it is, it doesn't taste as good as the dishes from Yunjian Restaurant.

For just 15 coins, the whole family can enjoy a delicious meal. Isn't that better than spending tens of coins to buy a pound of meat that only makes your mouth greasy?

They were previously only trapped by their own ideas, but now they seem to have had a sudden realization.

Perhaps they could try doing what cloud-based stores do.

Although ordinary people can only buy in small quantities, accumulating small amounts into large sums is still a viable path.

Around noon, the vegetables on the shelves were sold out again.

Yun Zhiyi let out a sigh of relief, thinking that she should start looking for someone to look after the shop tomorrow.

Tao Xingshun and his son approached her only when she finally had some free time.

"Cloud Store".

Yun Zhiyi looked up and said, "You're here. Come in."

After saying that, she turned and went into the cubicle, where she took out two contracts.
