The world's first county magistrate

Chapter 130 Wu Zhenkun's Thoughts
The news that Song Wei started to rectify the problem of street vendors spread quickly.

Especially among the vendors in Zhenan County.

This is their job, so they are naturally concerned about it.

Not only that, but they also inform their peers.

So in a short period of time, the news that Song Wei was going to open a big market spread all over the streets and alleys of Zhen'an County.

Moreover, the discounts given by Song Wei were really unbelievable. Only when some people said that they were present at the time and heard the words from the county magistrate himself did some people dare to believe it.

All of a sudden, more and more people came to the county office to sign up, wanting to find out.

In the Wu Mansion at this time, Ah Feng naturally reported this matter to Wu Zhenkun.

Wu Zhenkun played with the teacup after listening.

The last time Song Wei started recruiting a large number of people, Wu Zhenkun suspected that Song Wei was going to do something big.

As a result, the people sent out found no information at all.

Later Song Wei started to sell stoves and coal, Wu Zhenkun naturally recruited Song Wei a lot of people for the stove and coal.

Although he didn't think Song Wei would sell the stove at the time, who would have thought that Song Wei would come up with a proof of poverty.

There will be certain discounts for those with a poverty certificate, which immediately attracts a large number of people.

However, after hearing the news at that time, Wu Zhenkun still didn't take this matter to heart.

He knew the cost of the stove, and it seemed to him useless to have one.

Because he knew very well that these people in Zhen'an County couldn't afford a stove at all.

But within a few days, Song Wei announced again that he had discovered a new type of fuel, and it burned better than firewood.

Wu Zhenkun didn't expect that Song Wei would do such a thing, so he could only silently say that Song Wei's luck was too good.

Then after he saw coal, he couldn't sit still and bought Song Wei stove and coal himself.

Because some people like him will drink tea with him when he is free.

Recently, the daily topic of those who have tea with Wu Zhenkun has become the stove sold by Song Wei.

At the beginning, Wu Zhenkun naturally felt displeased, but after listening too much, he realized that the stove sold by Song Wei was really amazing.

Without alarming anyone, Wu Zhenkun also secretly bought Song Wei's stove and coal.

Then Song Wei went quiet, never thought that Song Wei would come out to be a demon now.

Wu Zhenkun gently stroked the teacup.

"Do you know where Song Wei is going to open the big market?"

After Wu Zhenkun thought for a long time, he asked slowly.

Ah Feng nodded affirmatively: "It has been found out. Song Wei asked Cai Hu to buy the commercial street at the junction of the rich area and the poor a few days ago, and the surrounding area of ​​the commercial street has already begun to be demolished and rebuilt."

Ah Feng reported the information he found to Wu Zhenkun.

"Oh?"

Wu Zhenkun raised his eyebrows after listening.

As the largest squire in Zhen'an County and a businessman, Wu Zhenkun naturally knew a lot about the market in Zhen'an County.

When Ah Feng mentioned the border between the rich area and the poor area, Wu Zhenkun already knew which commercial street Song Wei bought.

As for why Wu Zhenkun raised his eyebrows?

Wu Zhenkun knew that street, it could be said to be the worst street in Zhen'an County.

If you want to make market choices, it will definitely not be the best choice.

Even if Song Wei wants to rebuild, nothing will change. Wu Zhenkun knows the current situation in Zhen'an County.

Drought death and flood death refer to the situation in Zhen'an County. The rich people in Zhen'an County are all in the rich area, and ordinary people have little money at all.

And the rich areas look down on the slum areas, they will not go to the slum areas to buy things, because he may feel that his status will be lowered.

So in Wu Zhenkun's eyes, Song Wei will definitely not feel this move.

Even if Song Wei now introduces rent-free and lower taxes, it will still be the same as before, and it will not change the status quo at all.

Because no one will go to the big market opened by Song Wei to buy things, and if no one goes to buy businesses, they will not make money. It was okay at first, because Song Wei offered rent-free.

And when the rent-free period is over, businesses that have not made any money at all will definitely not be able to pay the rent.

If these vendors can afford to rent shops, how can they still be vendors?

At that time, Song Wei's plan will be self-defeating.

Wu Zhenkun nodded silently, as if affirming his thoughts.

"Don't worry about it, Song Wei has no good results. Although there are a lot of people who have signed up, these people are all looking at the discount given by Song Wei."

"However, when they find that they can't make any money at all and have to pay a high amount every month, they will naturally leave, which means that Song Wei's market will not open at all."

Wu Zhenkun said slowly after confirming his thoughts.

Ah Feng nodded and said nothing.

Now that Wu Zhenkun has made his decision, it is useless to say anything else.

And Ah Feng also felt that Wu Zhenkun's words were not unreasonable.

And what Wu Zhenkun said should be what businessmen would think of, otherwise when he went to investigate, only some vendors signed up at the county government office, and there were no businessmen who opened shops.

Wu Zhenkun put down his teacup, picked up a piece of snack from the nearby plate and ate it.

This is a new product launched by the largest pub in Zhenan County, and it has received unanimous praise after its launch.

Wu Zhenkun went to Yuankejuli admiringly, and after he ate the dim sum himself, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

This is a taste he has never tasted before!
Wu Zhenkun wanted to directly buy a large amount of dim sum and return to the mansion to eat slowly, and Yuan Keju told him that dim sum is sold in limited quantities every day, and large quantities of purchases are not allowed.

Wu Zhenkun thought about it and found that it was not wrong. There is a certain reason for selling such delicious snacks in limited quantities. After all, scarcity is the most valuable thing.

If you can buy them in bulk, the snacks will become mediocre when you get tired of eating them.

Then Wu Zhenkun had no choice but to buy only part of it and take it back to Wu Mansion to save food.

Wu Zhenkun just took a bite, and felt extremely happy, feeling that the fatigue of the day disappeared instantly.

After recovering from the aftertaste, Wu Zhenkun saw Ah Feng who was still beside him.

Waving his hand, Wu Zhenkun said slowly: "Go down, if Song Wei has any strange movements, come back and report."

Ah Feng nodded and left the room without speaking.

Wu Zhenkun watched Afeng close the door and ate some snacks again with a satisfied expression.

.........

At this time, outside the city, a group of caravans were on their way non-stop.

Suddenly this group of teams listened.

"Everyone has been traveling for such a long time. There happens to be a county in front of us. Although it is a poor county, don't dislike it. We will rest in the county first and then set off!"

The leader of the team turned around and said to the people behind him.

"Yes!"

The people behind said in unison.

They are just helping to escort the goods, and their task is to help the leader escort the goods to the place.

So they naturally would not reject the proposal of the person in front.

Then, the group of caravans changed direction and rushed towards the nearby county town.
