I sold snacks in ancient times

At the door of Qi's house.

Hearing the knock on the door and the barking of the dog, Qi Yongfan got up from the bed sleepily, looked down at the pajamas on his body, and hurriedly changed.Before he had time to wash up, he went to open the door, yawned and said, "Xiao Qi, are you here so early today?"

Qi Yongchun is the exclusive courier assigned by Shunfeng headquarters to Qi Yongfan, who is mainly responsible for delivering goods to Yuechuan County every day.He said: "It's getting late, Young Master Wang told me that the snack shop will open soon, and I must deliver it in the afternoon."

The sun was scorching hot outside, and judging by the momentum, it was estimated that it was almost noon.

Qi Yongfan muttered, "I forgot to set the alarm clock last night..."

Qi Yongchun didn't hear clearly, "Master Qi, what did you say?"

"It's nothing." Qi Yongfan said: "You go and sit under that old tree first, and I'll tidy things up and move them out later."

Qi Yongchun nodded, he knew Mr. Qi's rules, he liked Jing, and never wanted him to come into the house to help him.

Qi Yongfan deliberately placed stone tables and chairs under the old tree at the entrance, and occasionally guests came to look for him, so he asked them to sit at the entrance and wait for a while.

Not long after, Qi Yongfan opened the door and brought out a plate of melon seeds and a glass of water, and said with a smile, "Wait a minute, I'll be ready soon."

"It's all right." Qi Yongchun quickly touched a melon seed and ate it.In fact, he likes the waiting process the most, because Qi Yongfan will bring him melon seeds or various snacks every time, which are delicious.

One must know that such a plate of sunflower seeds would cost thirty Wen at Xia Xing Tavern, equivalent to half a day's wages for him.And Mr. Qi said that he can take it away before he finishes eating.

On the other side, Qi Yongfan continued to move bricks.Snacks have long been disassembled and packed in bamboo baskets, with a large number and variety.There are spicy strips, spiced melon seeds, potato chips, chicken feet with pickled peppers, biscuits, chocolate, beef jerky...all sealed in custom-made paper bags, which look very clean and hygienic.

And each paper bag is also printed with a cute dog's head pattern, and the words "Xiaxing Snack Specialty Store" are written underneath.

A few days ago, he specially asked someone to order a seal, which was printed on each wrapping paper bag.

There are even gift packs of treats packed together in beautiful wooden boxes... just for the rich.

These add up to eight baskets, and Qi Yongfan divided them up several times and moved them to the car board outside, saying: "Can you transport so many?"

"No problem." Qi Yongchun patted his chest and said, "It's enough to change to a big cart, and use three mules."

Qi Yongfan nodded, and said: "Be careful when transporting the goods, don't overturn them. In addition, lay a few pieces of cloth, I'm afraid the weather will be too hot and the food will be spoiled."

"Okay, I'll inform the brothers to set off later, and I'll be in Yuechuan County at noon, and I just had lunch..."

"Hmm." Qi Yongfan replied.

"By the way, here is a letter from you." Qi Yongchun took out an envelope from his custom-made messenger bag and handed it to him, saying, "It was written to you by Wang Shao, I just forgot to give it to you."

"It's okay, you can go to work."

Qi Yongfan waved his hand and bid him farewell.

……

In the afternoon, Yuechuan County.

The opening of the new store is in full swing.Wang Kui has been busy like a spinning top recently. He has to visit Gu Xiaxing Tavern for a while, and is busy with the decoration process of the snack store for a while, and often doesn't go to bed until late at night.

But the more this happened, the harder he worked, feeling that his life was about to reach its peak.He wanted to make Xia Xing's name famous throughout Yuechuan County, beyond Longyou Tavern, and let his father and brothers see who was the real business genius.

Of course, he knew very well that the reason why Xia Xing's business was booming was not because of his good marketing strategy.Restaurants ultimately depend on the quality of the food.

Xiaxing snack store is opened in the city center where every inch of land is precious.Adjacent to various mansions, there is a very lively night market street.The area of ​​the store is not large, there are four rows of shelves built according to the drawings drawn by Qi Yongfan.

Each shelf is full of snacks of various colors, with a piece of paper on the bottom, clearly writing the price and name of the product.

Today is the first day of opening. There are several bouquets of bright flowers at the door of the store, and the red silk is hung on the wooden plaque, which is quite eye-catching.

Not to mention that there was a huge big-character poster posted on it, with a few words written in flamboyant patterns: New store opening event, all Xia Xing snacks, buy three get one free!

The two specially trained male employees were uniformly dressed in white short hexagrams, with the word "Xia Xing" embroidered on the chest of their clothes, and shouted against the scorching sun, "Don't miss it when you pass by! Xia Xing snack store is open! All audience All snacks, buy three get one free, buy three get one free, if you miss this village, there will be no such shop..."

Like parrots, they kept repeating this passage, and when they became hoarse, another group of employees came over and shouted.

This street is very popular, and almost everyone passing by can hear these words.This is also the opinion given by Qi Yongfan, in other words, it is the modern "brainwashing" advertising effect.

For example, Melatonin, which has a history of one hundred years, was popular all over the country because of this trick.

Many people in Yuechuan County have eaten Xia Xing Tavern, recognized the sign, and soon someone walked in and asked, "Is there any connection between your restaurant and Xia Xing Tavern?"

The enthusiastic little brother replied with a smile: "Our store is a branch of Xia Xing Tavern, which specializes in selling snacks. Snacks like peanuts and melon seeds in the tavern cannot be packed, but you can buy them specially here."

"The melon seeds in Xia Xing Tavern are delicious..."

The man walked around the store with his hands behind his back, and was soon attracted by all kinds of weird snacks.

In particular, there is a counter in the middle, where there are many small portions of food, and you can also try them.

The man ate a piece of potato chips, slightly surprised.Every time he came back to Xiaxing Tavern, he only ordered wine or a plate of appetizers.I didn't expect the snacks under its banner to be so delicious... Well, I can buy some for my daughter to eat at home.

"How do you sell potato chips?"

"Hi, sixty Wen a bag."

In fact, it is only a small bag, and it costs sixty coins, which is indeed a bit expensive.Thinking to himself, the man took the bag, "Give me another bag of melon seeds."

The weight of melon seeds is more, a bag full, enough to eat for a long time, quite real, the price is [-] Wen.

After paying, the clerk delivered a paper bag, put the snacks in it, handed it to the man with both hands, and said with a smile on his face, "Welcome next time!"

The man glanced at the paper bag in his hand, and the words "Goutou" and "Xiaxing Snack Specialty Store" were also printed on it.The design of the bag is quite novel, the paper is very thick, with two thick hemp ropes attached, it can just be carried in the hand, and it is very convenient to carry things.

He couldn't help thinking that the money was well spent.

……

At the same time, Xiaxing Tavern.

In just half a month, this tavern has become quite famous in Yuechuan County.If it's dinner time in the evening, there is no place to sit without making an appointment in advance.

In the afternoon, there were still many people sitting and drinking tea, ordering some snacks, and chatting.

"Hey, have you heard? Xiaxing Tavern opened a branch today."

"Where is it? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"That's brother Ouyang being ignorant, hahaha...the shop is not far away, and it is said that it specializes in selling snacks."

"Snacks? That's what children eat. We're too old to be interested in these."

"The melon seeds you eat now are not snacks, are they? Xia Xing Tavern does not allow packing, but in that store they can be sold individually?"

"Oh?" The man became interested, "Then go and have a look."

"Let's go, waiter, pay the bill!" Someone shouted.

"Let's go and see the excitement!"

Many people were attracted by these words, and they all became a little interested in the Xia Xing shop that specializes in snacks.

The Xia Xing Tavern also posted an advertisement that customers who apply for a membership card in this tavern can get a discount at the Xia Xing Snack Specialty Store with the membership card.

In fact, most people don't understand what this fold means.But when people heard that there was a big discount, they rushed to the snack store.

What's more, for this discount, the membership card is specially recharged.

……

Tong Yanyan is the only daughter of a wealthy businessman in Yuechuan County.Although she was too old to marry because of her status as a businessman, her family was really rich.

My father said that even if she never married, he would still be able to support her.

So Tong Yanyan lived an extremely happy rice insect life.And what is increasing day by day is her weight. She is a food lover.

Stores like the usual Longyou Tavern could no longer interest her. It was not until the appearance of Xiaxing Tavern that her spirits were lifted. two.

From a certain level, Tong Yanyan can be regarded as a loyal VIP customer of Xia Xing Tavern.

Tong Yanyan had heard the news that Xia Xing Tavern was about to open a snack shop a few days ago, and she was quite looking forward to it.

So when it came to the opening day, she resolutely led the maid to rush, regardless of the fact that the girl who had not left the cabinet could not show her face casually.

She got up late that day, and it was already afternoon when she arrived at the store after dressing up, when there were the most people.The small shop was crowded with many people, and it was full of unpleasant sweaty smell.

But the waiters didn't get impatient or anything because of the crowd. After Tong Yanyan showed her membership card, they specially sent a handsome little brother to accompany her.

Tong Yanyan was very satisfied with this.

She wandered around casually, pointing to a few things at random, "That, this, and the one on the far right."

The little brother was very kind, "Okay, I'll wrap it up for you now."

"Wait a minute." Tong Yanyan took a closer look and said, "I don't want that melon seeds either. Well, except for the ones I just mentioned, wrap them all up for me, two of each."

The little brother was so excited that he almost yelled "the big fish is coming", and hurriedly shouted to the steward: "This guest officer wants a lot of things, please go and see if there is enough in the warehouse?"

Tong Yanyan enjoyed the pleasure of shopping.Of course, she is not interested in things like rouge and gouache.She felt that this snack shop was particularly to her liking, and she thought she would come here more often in the future, so she asked, "Can you also apply for a membership card in your shop?"

"Yes, the card with Xiaxing Tavern is common, as long as you open the connection with us."

Tong Yanyan handed him the card, "Okay, then you can activate it for me, and I will recharge another 500 taels."

Holding the thin card, the little brother felt like he was going to faint.
