Chapter 23

the next day.

early in the morning.

After paying the rent for one day, Shu Fu walked out of the inn.

"Sell&#."

"Fresh rice porridge."

"Shredded pork noodles."

"..."

It's bright in the sky, and there are people coming and going on the street, running around for their livelihood. It's a pity that the pronunciation of some foods is a bit floating, and the Chinese characters don't match.

Many of the things sold can't be seen.

but.

There are still some similarities.

Porridge paste.

biscuits.

Noodle.

…

There are also firewood sellers.

Looking at them, Shu Fu felt a little kind, because they were all of the same kind --- stall owners. In this not-so-perfect world, try to survive.

. . .

Time is not tight.

therefore.

Shu Fu ate their breakfast at a small stall, which was a bit like chaos, except that the skin was not flour, but a kind of brown potato flour.

It has a fragrance of its own.

With the taste of stuffing, it's pretty good.

Cheap.

There are only a few copper plates, and the broken silver is like a hundred yuan on the earth, which belongs to the whole currency. Copper plates are used as change, one hundred copper plates and one tael of silver.

at the same time.

There are also various currencies in circulation in the city.

-copper.

-gold.

-silver.

Here, with an official flavor.

That's right.

This is printed by the power of the city-state. In other cities, due to the different specifications, the currency styles and contents are different.

People hardly recognize it.

therefore.

broken gold.

broken silver.

It has become a standard of gold and silver currency that is acquiesced among all city-states. There is no single issuer, all cities can make their own.

Very messy.

This.

It also gave birth to the development of the bank business here. Hundreds of city-states represent hundreds of currency types, and the exchange rate is very troublesome.

To this.

Shu Fu likes it very much. If the currency is unified, why would he play?

As for why the various city-states do not have a unified currency, let's find out about seigniorage.

. . .

finish eating.

Shu Fu was walking on the street, continuing to collect information, and based on what he had heard from Tao Shan, the two days before, and what he had seen.

A little helpless.

white sugar.

salt.

spirits.

soap.

Glass.

porcelain.

…

These things had been expected to help him make his first pot of gold. But the reality is that a pot of cold water comes up. There are actually many substitutes for these technologies.

sugar.

Very white.

Salt.

Very thin.

liquor.

Very strong.

…

Playing cards completely out of routine.

certainly.

There must be a price difference. If it is shipped from the earth, several times the profit is guaranteed. But if you want to start a unique business, that's overthinking.

but.

Shu Fu wasn't too upset either.

after all.

Backed by a scientific and technological civilization, no matter what, you can’t make money without selling sugar and salt, making wine and making glass, etc.? That was too useless.

Besides.

He also has a gold finger that is definitely not ordinary in terms of technology.

This is the start.

I already have an advantage, so I can't be too greedy.

. . .

back to earth.

Room.

Shu Fu was rattling on the paper, this is a big map, I drew some yesterday, and added new content today, there are still many marked buildings on it.

rice shop.

Cloth Zhuang.

blacksmith shop.

Rouge Square.

brothel.

Inn.

…

Although I didn't know many characters, but looking at the furnishings inside and asking people, it became clear. He also wrote down the pictographs by the way.

Compare with Chinese.

Thinking in my heart, I have to invite a cultural person over there to teach him characters.

It's too time-consuming to figure it out by yourself.

. . .

tidy up.

go out.

Instead of going directly to the villa, he came to Mingshan Square first.

"Haha, it feels like we also opened a store."

"It's more comfortable than setting up a stall."

"..."

Jiu Xinqin and Shan Luo came to the store early, cleaned up briefly, and then sat at the counter, eating melon seeds and doing homework at the same time.

Comfortable!

only.

There was no business all day yesterday. Think about it too, there is no plaque, how do people know what you do?

We can only wait for Shu Fu to open, and they will be blessed.

On the right shelf.

Filled with plush toys.

to this end.

Their small coffers are almost at the bottom, because a lot of large items have been brought in. The top of the cabinet is even as tall as a person, which is much richer than a street stall.

"It will always be sold." Shan Luo smiled, very optimistic.

Even if it can't be sold.

It's okay.

Mainly because it feels good to be a small stall owner, no, it should be a small shopkeeper. While blowing on the air conditioner, eating sunflower seeds, you can also do your homework and read books.

Go online.

Listen to music.

See a movie.

If you are bored, you can go shopping around.

God!

This is simply the most beautiful summer vacation life.

. . .

Seeing Shu Fu coming, Shan Yao immediately sat up and laughed:

"Master, good morning."

She was called the squad leader a few times by Shu Fu, and she also gave Shu Fu a name.

even.

"Tell me, what's calling me?"

"Hey, here it is."

Shan Luo handed over a stack of things, Shu Fu took a look, it was a business procedure.

"So fast?"

Said it was three days.

It seems that it hasn't arrived yet!

"That is, is there any reward?" Shan Yaoqiao's face was full of expectation.

"No."

"mean."

"This is the rent here. It doesn't matter if the store is closed." Shu Fu put the formalities in his drawer.

"Very good."

Shan Luo immediately became overjoyed, and Jiu Xinqin, who was not far away, covered her face, this girl seemed to be cured.

Shu Fu didn't stay for long, and went to Lin Sen's villa. In the past two days, since he went to Yixing in the morning, he didn't go back until late at night.

Work overtime.

now.

The 20 or so major sculptures are about to be completed, plus one day tomorrow, it should be completed, which means that the work can be completed one to two days ahead of schedule.

certainly.

This is just finished.

to color.

Sealant.

Map of mountains and rivers.

…

It will be seven or eight days before he comes to open the store in person.

. . .

In the following week, Shu Fu did not act rashly, but kept collecting information. Tao Shan and his son were from the village, so they knew only a little.

therefore.

If you want to know the real situation, you still have to ask the people in the city.

By the way.

Shu Fu almost walked all the big and small streets in the city. I walked around the shops, looked at the products inside, and looked at the technology.

Learn about the law.

Contact contact customs.

Do enough preliminary research.

Works well later.

otherwise.

Bumping headlong into the unknown, stirring wind and rain, may be crushed to pieces. I have only one life, and I don't want to lose it here because of negligence.

Go a little bit, there is no big mistake.

. . .

finally.

Preliminary investigation work completed.

eighth day.

morning.

Shu Fu walked out of the inn. This was not the original inn. In order to avoid some troubles, he would change to another one in a day or two.

It is also convenient for drawing city maps.

at this time.

It is one of the largest inns in the city, on the busiest road. Just opposite to the inn, it is the most important goal of comfort this time.

---pawnshop.

After many inquiries.

This pawn shop has a very good reputation, and the owner behind it is considered a good person. As for the authenticity, Shu Fu doesn't know, but it has a better reputation than the others.
