My years in the Northern Song Dynasty Guozijian

After the dinner that day, whenever Ye An brought a food box to school, Fan Chunren and Di Yong would always watch with their heads poked around. Sometimes Ye An was annoyed by watching, so they simply asked them to eat together.But this good thing didn't last long, because his rouge shop finally opened.

Ye An didn't have much ink, so he borrowed the books he read in his previous life and named the shop "Heng Zhi Qing Fen".It's not intentional arty, according to his thinking, simply call "XX Rouge Shop" simple and easy to remember.But in today's Song Dynasty, even the brothels in Tianshui Lane are "Jiuxiang Tea House" and "Sansheng Palace". If he wants to take the high-end route, he must have an elegant brand name.

Unsurprisingly after the opening...it hit the street, and it hit the street silently, not even sparking a splash.As I said before, although Ye Anxuan's store has a good location, the customer flow is not very large, and there is not enough publicity, so many people don't know what he sells.On the first day, there were not even any customers except Fan Chunren and Di Yong who bought something to cheer him on.

Yuan Baochou's tears were about to fall out. Besides him, there were two shop assistants in the store, and the daily cost was a lot of money. If this continued, he felt that his husband would have to pay for it to death.

"What are you panicking about?" Ye An played his fan unhurriedly. He had already anticipated this situation and was mentally prepared for it.

"Master, didn't you say you have a secret weapon before, what exactly is it?" Yuan Bao asked anxiously.

"Do you know what day is two days from now?" Ye An asked leisurely.

Yuan Bao was taken aback, "Two days later it will be the fifteenth day of the fifth lunar month. It's not a holiday, it's just an ordinary day."

Ye An reminded: "On the [-]th of each month, Wan surnames are traded, easy to get together and easy to disperse..."

"The Great Xiangguo Temple is open!"

……

The Daxiangguo Temple in Bianliang in the Northern Song Dynasty is known as the "Royal Temple" and ranks first among the four major temples.Commodity trading is a regular activity of Xiangguo Temple, similar to the temple fairs of later generations. It is opened five times a month and is very lively.For this reason, Emperor Taizong also personally ordered to rebuild the three gates, so that the "two verandahs in the atrium" of Xiangguo Temple can accommodate thousands of people. The scale is so grand that it is rare even in later generations.

From the very beginning, Ye An had set his sights on the Daxiangguo Temple's trade fair. Could there be a better publicity than this.

Yuan Bao also suddenly realized that, indeed, as long as the product is of good quality, it will be easy to sell in Washi, Xiangguosi, and soon expressed his worries: "Master, even if we can sell out the goods, the business in the store is still deserted, then It’s better to just go out of the stall.”

"Stupid!" Ye An knocked him on the head, hating the iron and saying: "So we need to shout at this time! To attract all the customers, let them think that our products are good! No matter what, we can't do without them. This way, there will be no repeat customers!"

Yuan Bao covered his head, and said naively: "Is it a jungler? But I don't know how to do it either, or we'll hire some quacks."

The so-called "playing wild" refers to performing arts in open spaces on the streets or squares, which was a very common means of attracting customers in the Song Dynasty.Ye An thought for a while. Hiring a better-looking entertainer would cost at least a hundred words. Now that he is not rich, he can only put it aside for the time being. He shook his head and said, "No, we will do it ourselves!"

"But where does anyone understand this..."

"I will!" Ye An is full of confidence. In his previous life, he spent a lot of live broadcasts to save money for tuition. Dealing with the ancients thousands of years ago is still a piece of cake.

Just at this time, a guest came, Ye An signaled Yuan Bao with his eyes, let him learn a little bit, stepped forward, smiled and said: "This lady, do you want to see Rouge?"

Hong Qiao was slightly taken aback. She was originally dragging a client who drank in a brothel and didn't give money to Kaifeng Mansion to file a lawsuit. On the way, she was accidentally run away by the other party. Brother, said with a charming smile: "That's right, the shopkeeper will help the slave to see which color is suitable for the slave."

Ye An was sweating on the tip of his nose. This was the first business deal when he opened the door. The employees behind him were all watching, and they were so nervous that they didn't pay attention to what the other party said.Ji Ji said: "The small shop is full of new products, developed by myself, with various lip balms, soaps, toothbrushes..."

Hong Qiao stared at him provocatively, casually picked up a box of rouge, applied it on her face, and asked, "Little Lang, what do you think?"

Unexpectedly, this sentence seemed to trigger some kind of switch. Ye An closed his eyes, and imitating the expression of the anchor in his previous life, he said sharply: "The one you are holding is the best one bought by our store! It's so beautiful. Got it! Buy it buy it!"

Hong Qiao: "..." Such a handsome gentleman, but unfortunately he is a fool.Regretfully putting down the rouge, she planned to take the opportunity to wander around and run away, but at this moment, she happened to see a tall guy with an honest face staring at her obsessively.

The young man's eyes were so clear and sincere, that red Qiao's face was slightly heated, and he said angrily, "You kid, what are you looking at? Does it look good?"

Yuan Bao looked away, his face was so red that he didn't dare to look directly at him.

Hong Qiao was in a good mood, and bought a bunch of things without carefully selecting them. When she left the store, she thought happily, she seems to be very attractive~ oh hoo hoo~~

"As expected of the young master, you can sell so much after just two words!" Yuan Bao admired.

And Ye An, who was on the side, had already petrified because of being too ashamed...

……

After staying for two days, the tile market in Daxiangguo Temple finally opened.Although it is called Washi, it is not as chaotic and disorderly as everyone thinks. On the contrary, Daxiangguo Temple divides the surrounding area into several different districts.

Among them, on the third gate is the pet area, where there are rare birds and animals; the second and third gates are for daily sundries, such as mushroom mats, preserved fruits and so on; near the Buddha Hall, the Mengjia Taoist Temple is Pens, inks, papers and inkstones, etc. occupy the two corridors, selling embroidery, emeralds, rouge, etc. What is interesting is that most of the main operators here are nuns who have become monks; Circles, calligraphy and paintings of scholars themselves, and local products from the hometowns of dismissed officials from all walks of life are gathered here.

Ye An's rouge shop is located in the two corridors, surrounded by nuns in monk uniforms, the four big men are particularly conspicuous here.

"No wonder Fan Chunren and Di Yong didn't want to come with me, so they already knew what was going on." Ye An covered his face, he could already feel the strange gazes from both sides.

But thanks to this, passers-by passing by here can't help but take a second look, and after this look, they can see the difference.

"What is this?" A middle-aged woman asked doubtfully while holding a lipstick.

Yuan Bao hurriedly stepped forward to demonstrate, twisted out the lipstick, and took a few small samples to test the color on his arm.

Although it was a little uncomfortable to discuss makeup with half of the older boys, the woman still couldn't resist her instincts and asked a lot of questions curiously.The other party answered one by one, and finally chose a few with satisfaction.

On the other hand, the two guys were probably sincerely flattering their boss, and they started to imitate Ye An's convulsive tone that day.So in the corner of the booth, did you think of their voice of "buy it, buy it".In the end, not many products were sold, but the mantra was out of the circle, and many merchants didn't know what it meant, so they all followed suit.

Ye An smiled vicissitudes, after today, he figured out two things.

First, Yuan Bao is a born salesman. He introduces products with sincerity, but the key is that he can blush when he sees an old woman in his 70s or [-]s.According to what he said, it was because he was shy when he saw strangers since he was a child, and it took him a long time to get over it at Ye's house.But no matter what, the guests seem to like it.

Second, not everyone can be a beauty blogger!He could already imagine how Fan Chunren and Di Yong would laugh when they knew what had happened!
