I Have A Seal Of Two Realms

Chapter 20 Sweet Food

Lu Zheng thought about it for two days, but still didn't sell anything from Hyundai.

After a month, I immediately took out another "family heirloom", which was really eye-catching.

In comparison, opening an ordinary sugar shop and selling sugar that is available in this era is not so eye-catching.

Lu Zheng's inspection in the past few days has made it very clear that the brown sugar and rock sugar sold in the county's sugar shops are exactly the same as modern ones.

That being the case, it's simple.

First of all, forget about buying a shop. Lu Zheng first went to a broker house in the south of the city, rented a shop for three francs a month, and hired two waiters to work there.

The decoration utensils in the shop were still usable, and Lu Zheng did not tidy them up again. He just ordered a plaque in the lacquerware shop.

Sweet food fast.

Then, I returned to modern times and purchased a hundred pounds of rock sugar online. After the courier arrived, I unpacked it and brought it to Da Jingchao in bulk to replenish the supply of goods for the store.

"Master, these are all fine frostings, great stuff!"

"Boss, our store only sells frosting, not malt candies?"

Icing sugar is made from sugar cane juice and is a high grade of sugar; starch syrup is made from grain fermentation and saccharification and is relatively cheap.

Therefore, in ancient times, common people bought snacks for their children, which were basically caramels, and sugar frosting was rare to buy once a year.

However, the Great Jing Dynasty was in its prime, and Lu Zheng thought that the people in Tonglin County were living a decent life, and their purchasing power should be stronger than in the parallel world.

There is nothing we can do if we are not strong. Lu Zheng cannot open a sugar factory now. The prices of modern maltose and maltose are much more expensive than rock sugar.

"Boss, how are we going to sell our frosting?"

The two shopkeepers were both locals from Tonglin County, but their families were poor and they came out early to help earn money.

One is named Shitou, and the other is named Ma, ranked third.

"Same as other candy shops, one to two to fifty cents." Lu Zheng said.

Judging from the purchasing power of grain, one penny in Dajing Dynasty was equivalent to one yuan in modern times. The five-pound rock sugar Lu Zheng brought from modern times was sold in Dajing Dynasty for five hundred yuan per pound.

A hundred times the profit!

Apex Level’s black-hearted capitalist!

"Okay, our frosting is much better than those shops that mix stone honey with granulated sugar. At the same price, business will definitely be good."

"Yes." Lu Zheng nodded, "If the goods are not enough, remember to tell me in advance. I purchase goods from other places and it will take time."

Shitou and Ma San immediately nodded with understanding. This was the employer's trade secret, and of course they couldn't inquire about it at will.

Lu Zheng didn't pick any auspicious day. After getting everything ready, he found a team of actors and opened the business the next day with gongs and drums.

"The Sweets Restaurant is open! Only selling frosting! The best frosting!"

"Three days before the opening! The dessert restaurant has a big discount, the best frosting, one or two for only 40 cents!"

After all, it is a newly opened sugar shop, and it also needs to increase its popularity and attract business to compete with other sugar shops in the county.

Lu Zheng doesn't sell candy, and he doesn't want to start a price war to avoid offending too many people.

But we can't open it so obscurely, otherwise we don't know how long it will take to attract customers and retain repeat customers.

So Lu Zheng thought for a while and casually took out the grand opening offer.

It’s hard to tell when the grand opening bonus event began. I heard it existed in ancient times. However, Lu Zheng saw a restaurant opening in Tonglin County, but he didn’t see any discounts.

That being the case, let’s start with me.

After all, it's not high-tech, it's just an original idea to attract customers, and it won't be looked down upon by anyone.

Maybe there are other places in Da Jingchao that use it like this?

From Anfangli, the dessert restaurant opened bustlingly, but there were still many people watching and few buying.

After all, Sweet Food Restaurant only sells rock sugar, not malt sugar. The price of one to two to forty cash is still too expensive compared to the one to twenty cash of malt sugar.

However, Lu Zheng is also satisfied. As long as he can make money, he can make ends meet here. After all, he doesn't really expect to make a lot of money from this dessert restaurant.

"Store, weigh two taels of candy for me and wrap it up, two portions!"

"Man, weigh ten cents for me!"

"Mom, I want some candy!"

As time passed, the store began to have continuous business.

However, there were two shopkeepers, one weighing and packaging, and the other collecting money and delivering goods, and things were very busy, so Lu Zheng just wandered around the store and watched, and did not help.

"Sister, sister, look, there is a newly opened candy shop here, I want to eat candy!"

"You just ate two pieces of rose cake and a piece of nine-layer sugar cake. Why do you still want to eat candy?"

"No, no, I want to eat sweets. Sister, please buy them for me! I haven't had sweets for a long time!"

As the sound approached, Lu Zheng saw two figures approaching.

Hand in hand, a tall and graceful figure is dancing, and a petite and exquisite figure is jumping up and down.

Lu Zheng's eyes lit up, there were two beauties, no, there were two beauties, one big and one small.

The older one looks gentle and quiet, as lively as an orchid, while the younger one looks lively, cute, and full of energy. Their eyebrows are somewhat similar, and they are obviously a pair of sisters.

When Lu Zheng saw the two of them, of course they also saw Lu Zheng.

However, although Lu Zheng was standing in the store, he obviously didn't do anything, so the beauty didn't talk to Lu Zheng. She just said to Shitou, "Store, just weigh half a tael of sugar for me."

"Gudu, okay, okay."

Shitou had never talked to such a lady who looked like a Celestial Immortal before. At this time, his face was red, and he just lowered his head and weighed the candy.

The beautiful woman smiled, counted out twenty copper coins from her purse, and put them on the counter.

On the other side, after the stone was weighed and wrapped, before it was handed to Ma San, the little beauty snatched it away and held it in her arms without letting go.

The big beauty smiled sheepishly at Lu Zheng, then pulled the little beauty out of the crowd and walked away.

"Hey, this candy is so sweet, sister, you can eat it too."

"Yeah, it's delicious. Let's go back and give it to my dad and mom to try it."

Lu Zheng withdrew his gaze and said that this was the first time he had seen such a beautiful ancient woman in Tonglin County.

Well, except for the painted skin, which is not human!

In one day, Tianshizhai sold seven kilograms of sugar, earning nearly three thousand dollars, and recovered the rent in one day.

Of course, it won't be so popular in the future, but once the reputation is established, it will be a steady stream.

"From now on, after work every day, I will round up the copper coins, go to the bank to exchange them for treasure notes, and send them to Tong Yi Lane to hand over to Uncle Li. Do you understand?"

"I know my boss!"

Lu Zheng nodded. He provided all the goods himself, the selling price was fixed, and the accounts were clear, but he didn't worry about Shitou and Ma San stealing.

Then he asked Uncle Li to save enough ten thousand dollars and then give it to him. In this way, he would not have to worry about this candy shop every day.

At the end of Shen Shi, Lu Zheng closed the shop, put three guan of treasure notes into his pocket, and walked back happily.

When he just walked to the entrance of Tong Yi Lane, he saw two figures walking together on the opposite side. They were the beauties he met today.
