Chapter 219 Business Competition
Chapter 219 Business Competition
Because there are too many people, and because of Mrs. Mo, she has bad intentions and covets our money, so we have to make other plans early. On the other hand, as for your embroidery skills, don't worry about anything. Our business will grow bigger and bigger, and we will go to the town sooner or later. It's just a little early now."
Wang Lin looked at Shen Yan and thought a lot while listening to her talk. She could understand that Shen Yan had greater ambitions and would go to a bigger place sooner or later.
Thinking of this, Wang Lin also felt very happy. He couldn't be stuck in this village all his life.
At least in this village, she hated the people of Wangjia Village, and she hated everyone who had hurt her in her previous life.
Even those who have not hurt her are selfish, cold-hearted and not innocent.
It’s just that I was imprisoned here in my previous life and I can’t do anything about it.
On the second day, the Shen Yan sisters and Shopkeeper Li got on the carriage to the town early.
The morning breeze was cool and everyone felt refreshed. Several people were chatting about various topics.
The carriage moved slowly along the country road outside the village. The cool breeze in the early morning brushed their faces, making them feel refreshed and pleasant.
The carriage slowly drove along the path between the fields. The sunlight cast dappled shadows through the treetops, creating a peaceful and tranquil scene.
Shen Yan sat by the window, the breeze blew her hair, taking away the restlessness of last night, and she felt relaxed.
The sisters sat together and chatted with each other.
Wang Lin felt a little emotional. She felt that she could not be confined to this village forever.
She doesn't like the people here and resents everything about the village.
This emotion seemed to have continued from her previous life to the present day, and she had a deep sense of rejection of this environment.
Shen Yan noticed Wang Lin's expression and understood.
She knew that Wang Lin's mood was not calm, but she also understood that this was a kind of exploration and cognition of the world and life in her youth.
She prayed silently for Wang Lin, hoping that she could find her own way out and peace.
The carriage was moving in the morning light, with birds occasionally flying by and cattle in the distance leisurely grazing. Shopkeeper Li was smiling and telling some interesting stories in the carriage, making the atmosphere more relaxed and cheerful.
Wang Lin used to ride in ox carts, but now he felt that the horse carriage was much more comfortable than the ox cart. However, it was still bumpy when passing through muddy ground.
After an unknown amount of time, the group finally arrived in town, and Shopkeeper Li stopped in front of his own embroidery room.
Chunjuan came out to accompany them, and went to look at the shop with Shen Yan and Wang Lin. Shopkeeper Li did not go, as she had other things to do, and left in a carriage again.
Chunjuan was very familiar with the situation. She knew which shops were vacant in the town and what the people in the pawnshop were like.
So Chunjuan simply found an acquaintance and talked to him for a while, but when this acquaintance learned that the person who wanted to rent the shop was Shen Yan, his expression suddenly changed.
But he didn't show anything and continued to chat with Chunjuan. After Chunjuan arranged for the two to get acquainted, she left first because she had something else to do in her embroidery room.
The acquaintance just now didn't even give Shen Yan any face. He just called an apprentice over and asked him to show Shen Yan around the shop.
Shen Yan was surprised. She didn't expect that this man would change his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book. He was smiling when Chunjuan was around, but now that Chunjuan was not around, he treated people he didn't know well with this attitude.
Shen Yan didn't take it to heart. After all, the most important thing right now was to look after the shop. But what happened next opened her eyes.
This person was a novice who was not familiar with anything about the shop and seemed a little nervous. In his hand was a piece of paper with streets and houses drawn on it. He would take it out and look at it from time to time. It was obvious that he was also putting in a lot of effort in private.
But after visiting more than ten shops in the morning, Shen Yan was not very satisfied with any of them. She wanted to find a place that was spacious and not remote, and the price would be reasonable. However, such a place was too hard to find.
Shen Yan wanted to start a snail noodle business. It didn't matter if the place was a little remote, but the place was at the end of the alley after so many twists and turns, and customers couldn't find it at all.
The apprentice was at a loss. He had been talking for the whole morning and felt thirsty. His lips were chapped. “Miss Shen, I have shown you so many things. There are quite a few that are good, but you don’t like any of them. I have no other choice.”
Shen Yan also knew that she was anxious. Renting a shop was not an easy thing and she couldn't expect to get it done in one day.
So she simply calmed down and bought a pot of cold tea for the apprentice: "Thank you for your hard work today. Please keep an eye out for me. If you meet a suitable one, just tell the shopkeeper's embroidery room directly. She will tell me."
The apprentice from the dental shop smiled happily and agreed immediately.
When Shen Yan had nothing to do, she took her sister for a stroll.
While buying street snacks, you can also learn about the local customs and culture of the town.
The town is more prosperous than the village. There are several streets with all kinds of stalls, and there are also many larger shops. However, there is a lot of overlap in the goods sold, and everyone wins by taste.
If you sell food, you must rely on your unique taste to attract more customers. Some people from the countryside come to the town to buy some food. When they are hungry and want to eat something, they don’t know which restaurant is delicious, so they just go to one to follow the taste. This is also a very normal thing.
Therefore, the passenger flow here is quite stable, but the village is more dependent on the passenger flow of the official road and is therefore more passive.
There are two big restaurants in the town, and they used to be competitors, but one of them lost the upper hand and now there are not many people there. The shop assistants have nothing to do and sit lazily in front of the shop all day long to bask in the sun. They can't make any money and even have no light in their eyes.
Shen Yan took Wang Lin into this place called Hongfu Restaurant. Although it was deserted, it was quiet.
But after the dishes were served, Shen Yan finally understood why no customers came here. The dishes tasted terrible. There must be no good chef, which resulted in not only bad color of the dishes, but also poor knife skills. After taking a bite, the taste was a bit bland.
All in all, there is nothing noteworthy about it, and the price is not cheap. It really makes people feel a little painful to spend fifty cents on a meal like this.
Eating here is not only enjoyable, it can even be said to be torturing yourself, so there is a reason why this restaurant has few customers.
Soon, Shen Yan took her sister to another restaurant, Mufeng Restaurant. The food here tasted quite good and the color of the food was also very beautiful, but the taste was surprisingly familiar.
After leaving the restaurant, Shen Yan remembered what the taste was familiar to. It turned out to be from the time when Wang Ji Roujiamo was selling vegetables.
