370 Pace up


Since the wooden track between the western capital Chang'an and the eastern capital Luoyang was opened, the transportation between Chang'an and Luoyang has become very convenient.

It is seven or eight hundred miles from Chang'an to Luoyang.

In the past, gentlemen from Chang'an City drove to Luoyang.

Even if the road conditions and weather conditions were relatively good, it would take about ten days and a half.

If you are traveling with your family to Luoyang for a short stay, the journey will be slow.

If there is some rainy weather, it is not uncommon to spend a whole month on the road.

After the wooden track is opened, you can take the wooden track carriage from Chang'an to Luoyang, which can usually be reached in seven or eight days.

If we change horses midway, it is said that we can arrive in three or four days at the earliest.

This is not easy.

After all, there are other carriages ahead, so overtaking is a no-brainer.

People are generally very satisfied with the speed and comfort of the current wooden rail carriage.

Two or three people ride in a carriage, and generally no heavy objects are placed on the carriage.

In addition, the road is mostly flat, so the horses are not tired from running.

Sitting on this wooden rail carriage, the journey is smooth and comfortable.

For people who have long been accustomed to bumpy journeys, this is simply a fairy-like travel experience.

They can even set up a small table in the car to have wine, travel backwards from the previous inn to get some good wine and food, and eat all the way to the next inn.

This was completely impossible before the advent of cement roads and wooden rail carriages.

Anyone who dared to do this in the car would end up with 80% of them being covered in food and wine.

The remaining 20% ​​was probably due to their outstanding martial arts skills.

The carriage is unstable, and it all depends on the hand's stability.

Earlier when the peonies were in full bloom in Luoyang, many female relatives from Chang'an City rode wooden carriages to Luoyang to enjoy the flowers.

Recently, many people from Luoyang have come to Chang'an City, especially those young people who can't stay at home.

They often come to Chang'an City in groups to play.

There are also people who go to Chang'an City to eat iced drinks and cold melons.

A bowl of refreshing and sweet iced drinks only costs two to three cents, and a big, sweet cold melon only costs three to four cents.

This is a very difficult situation for many Luoyang people.

To put it bluntly, it’s like asking for no money.

There are also those who like to go shopping for groceries from the north and south.

Some people go in early in the morning and don't come out until before the curfew.

They simply treat the supermarket as a playground.

There are two places in Nanbei Grocery that are most loved by these young ladies and gentlemen.

One is the dessert area on the first floor, and the other is the Yanerfei area on the second floor.

"Look at this rubber tire and this mat, tsk tsk" "What kind of leather is this mat?"

"Wolfskin bar" "Look at the springs under here" “This car body is so beautifully made” "The wood used for this car body is good and strong, and it's not heavy to lift."

"Look, there are iron plates on it."

"The connecting places are all inlaid, I saw it early in the morning."

"Earlier, the clerk said this car could change speed."

"Why don't you call him over and ask him again."

"No, it's better for us to see it ourselves, and we don't have money to buy it." "" “I really don’t want to buy it.”

"I'm short of money.

If I buy this car, I won't have the money to take the wooden carriage when I go back."

"Me too, me too.

When I come out this time, mother-in-law will give me a total of money, plus the little I managed to save in the past." "" A few shop assistants not far away were looking over here.

These young gentlemen had earlier decided to go shopping by themselves and would not let them follow, so the shop assistant also let him go.

Listening to the talk of these people at this time, it seems that they don’t have enough money to buy the latest model of Yanerfei.

This is not surprising.

Even young men from good families do not spend a lot of money.

Those who are really rich , either those who hold real power in the family, or those who are born to be favored by thousands of people.

After all, there are still relatively few people like that.

This time, the latest model of Yanerfei is priced at nearly RMB 2,000.

Many young men have come and gone, come and seen it several times, but they just don’t have the money to buy it.

Today, the young men from Luoyang seem to be in the same situation.

They visited once two days ago and came again today.

"I went to my uncle's house yesterday."

"Your uncle and your aunt have reconciled."

"Li is Li.

I still exchange letters with his son.

Yesterday I went to his house and he bought this car.

I asked him to lend me a ride."

"How is it?"

"This car is very light to ride.

When walking on flat ground, I just thought that I was going downhill.

When I turned around and came back, I was still going downhill.

I could jump far away with just one pedal.

That's called briskness.

That's called briskness.

As for Yanerfei, compared with this car, the car we used to ride was just a broomstick. " "Wow!"

The other young men were all very excited.

The two employees of the North and South Grocery Store in Yanerfei District were staying not far away at this time.

After hearing what they said, a clerk came over and said, "If you guys are not sure for a moment, If you have any idea, you can go downstairs and try the car first.”

“This can still be tried” "Of course, just ride around in the open space in front of the shop downstairs.

It won't hinder anything."

“Then go try it” "Go!

Go!

Go."

As a result, after this try, they could no longer give up.

In the end, several people took out all their money, pooled their money, and bought one each.

After leaving the North and South groceries, they discussed: "When we go back, we will cancel a few guest rooms.

There is not much money left, so we have to save some money."

"Don't go to those expensive restaurants these days."

"If not, let's go to Sister's Restaurant."

"I just saw a lot of braised cold dishes on the first floor of the North and South Grocery Store, and the prices are affordable."

"Don't think about the wooden carriage.

Just ride back by yourself."

"We'll go back in two or three days.

Don't buy any more things that are too heavy."

"But I really want to take a cold melon back."

"Then buy a cold melon." "" So more than ten days later, a certain father in Luoyang City saw his son flying back home on a Yan'er after a long journey.

There was a basket tied to the back seat of the car, and there was a big, round cold melon in the basket.

It was said that this melon was bought from the North and South Grocery Store and cost only four cents, which was very cheap.

The price of melons in Luoyang City this summer was only twenty or thirty cents for a cold melon.

As the saying goes, teenagers in middle school have a lot of fun.

Carrying a watermelon from Chang'an City back to Luoyang is not outrageous.

At most, it is a bit stunned.

Earlier, there was a young lady from Luoyang who went to Chang'an to visit and bought a few cream cakes at the North and South Grocery Store.

Then she decided to stay in Chang'an City and refused to leave.

She even insisted on marrying the cake maker.

Nowadays, when adults get together, their favorite topic is what happened to so-and-so’s young man and young lady, and it’s probably all related to the wooden track.

Since this wooden track was opened, the distance between the two cities of Chang'an and Luoyang seems to have suddenly become very close.

When Luo Siniang's letter was sent, the aunt had just finished her work in Suzhou and came to Luoyang City to check on the operation of the new store.

The person who carried the letter for Siniang was a merchant from Lishi who was preparing to go south.

After he arrived in Luoyang City, he heard that Aunt Luo was in Luoyang right now, so he sent this letter to her.

The aunt was quite moved after reading Siniang's proposal in the letter.

In addition, she happened to have nothing to do at this time, so she packed up, hired a wooden carriage, and headed to Chang'an City early the next morning.

Went.

This is Mrs.

Luo's first time riding a wooden carriage.

She had only heard people talk about its comfort and speed.

However, no matter how many times she heard other people talk about it, she never experienced it as profoundly as riding it herself.

When summer comes, it should be unbearably hot, but sitting in this wooden carriage is indescribably refreshing and comfortable.

The interior of the car was smooth and comfortable, and what was flying past outside the window were acres of farmland slopes, forests, mountains and streams, as well as a magnificent river.

Rows of trackers on the riverside were pulling large boats, and there were also nearby farmers driving oxcarts slowly.

Walking on the cement road not far away.

Sitting in the speeding wooden carriage, Aunt Luo felt her heart pounding, and this thought flashed through her mind again and again: If she doesn't step up her pace, she will be left far behind in this rapidly developing society.

A few days later, Aunt Luo and others arrived in Chang'an.

She first went to visit Baifu, and then she and Siniang started planning to open a branch.

Together they met with several ladies and gentlemen who were interested in investing.

After several days of negotiation, they quickly finalized plans for three new stores.

The locations of these three new stores were determined to be in Tongguan, Bianzhou, and Yangzhou respectively.

The three ladies who are cooperating with Sister's Restaurant this time, their families also have some influence in these three places.

Aunt Luo doesn't want to take advantage of their families, as long as they can do business peacefully. .

In order to ensure the interests of both parties, the details of the cooperation are also listed in detail.

Aunt Luo has already opened two branches in Wuxian and Luoyang.

She is also relatively clear about the housing and land prices on both sides of the canal, so before the cooperation, she will give a detailed plan for each branch.

Come up with an approximate amount.

At first, she was worried that these ladies would think the amount was too high, but in the end, all those people said that they should choose a better shop and not be stingy with money.

They hoped that the shop they invested in would be as big and grand as possible.

The feedback given to them by Sister's Restaurant is half of the profit every month.

Only in the month at the end of the year, which is the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, they will be given an extra half of the profit, calculated as 10%.

According to the current operating conditions of Ajie Restaurant, they can normally recover their capital in five to ten years.

Another guarantee given by Aunt Luo to them is that if they cannot recover their capital within fifteen years, then they have the right to take back the shop.

This is also stated clearly in the cooperation contract between the two parties.

If the cooperation between the two parties goes smoothly, they can continue to receive the dividends from Sister's Restaurant for fifty years.

In addition, when the dividends they receive from Sister's Restaurant reach twice the amount of their original investment, this store will belong to Sister's Restaurant.

Sister's Restaurant will arrange for dedicated personnel to pay attention to and handle the ownership of these stores. question.

These ladies all expressed satisfaction with the details of the cooperation, and readily took out the money, and said they could give more if it was not enough.

For a business that could pay back its capital in five to ten years, the other party was willing to give them fifty years of dividends and even gave them a minimum guarantee.

Although there was also the factor that their family was relatively influential in the local area, this was really A pretty good deal, isn't it?

In fact, in addition to these three new stores that are cooperating with others, Aunt Luo also plans to open several new stores on Hedong Road, namely in Linfen, Xicheng, Taiyuan, and Dinghu.

These new stores are not cooperating with others.

In addition, the original sister's restaurant in Chang'an City is located in Guangdefang next to the West Market.

From the north-south direction, it is relatively north.

The south side of the city has also developed very well in recent years.

Aunt Luo plans to open it in Open another branch in the south of the city.

The current housing and land prices in Chang'an City are very expensive.

Especially after the wooden track to Luoyang was built, many families from Luoyang wanted to settle in Chang'an, which directly raised the housing prices in Chang'an.

Aunt Luo doesn't have much money in her hands now, and she doesn't really want to borrow money from others this time.

Instead, Luo used another method of raising funds that she had mentioned to her before, and she planned to try it this time.

Or according to the calculation method of giving investors half the profit, the required principal is divided into 500 shares and raised funds directly in the form of sales.

These shares were mainly sold inside the North and South Grocery Store and Sister's Food Store, as well as Luo Siniang's friends, the female relatives of the Bai family and the Ma family, and other people who got the news in time, mostly women.

Although the shops in Chang'an City are expensive, after being divided into five hundred shares, each share does not cost much.

Many women from wealthy families can afford it.

They can buy one or two shares for fun.

It is not a lot of money, and There is no burden.

From now on, I can receive some dividends every month and have more money on hand.

Unfortunately, there were only 300 shares, and within a day or two after the news came out, they were all sold short.

Those who had received the news in the past hesitated for a moment, and when they asked again later, they were gone.

"Tell me, what kind of shares in Aunt Luo's new shop are really gone now?"

On this day, as soon as a certain young lady returned home, her mother-in-law came looking for her.

"It's gone a long time ago, two or three days ago," replied her daughter.

"Why did it disappear so quickly?"

Her mother-in-law muttered.

"As soon as I heard the news that day, I came back and asked, my grandma bought it, but you didn't."

Her daughter pouted and complained.

"What is your grandma's background?

How much dowry does she have?

How can I have as much money as hers?"

"Then now you are asking me again, what can I do?"

"How much did you buy?"

"I had some money and scraped it together, so I bought five shares."

"You give me two shares, and I'll give you some extra money and silk.

Didn't you say you wanted my piece of fabric last time?

I gave it to you as well."

"My grandma bought twenty shares, why don't you discuss it with her?"

"Then she refuses."

"That's all, I'll give you a share."

"Two strands."

"That won't work."

"And that hairpin you were interested in last time."

"Give it to me too" "Two strands."
