Yun Duo wondered, in her previous life, her grandmother's supermarket was called "Caiyunhui". Her grandmother also registered her own trademark for the cosmetics and daily necessities made from some ancient recipes that her grandfather had improved.
My grandmother opened a "Caiyunhui Drug and Cosmetics Store" in the "Caiyunhui" hypermarket. The store specializes in selling all kinds of drug and cosmetics and some daily necessities with Chinese herbal ingredients, such as shampoo, sanitary napkins... and other items, and the business is booming.
Grandma also set up a research and development team to develop some Caiyunhui series products, and there is a factory dedicated to producing Caiyunhui products. Even in the modern era of fierce competition, sales are very good, and dozens of specialty stores have been opened in major cities across the country.
Yun Duo thought: "How could there be such a coincidence?"
"Mom, let's go take a look." Li Xiuxiu paid for the clothes she had picked out and went out with her daughter.
When they entered the clothing store, the line was not so long, so they did not pay much attention to the fact that there were so many people queuing. While they were choosing clothes, the line had already stretched to the clothing workshop.
The Caiyunhui store is bustling with activity, as it is holding its opening ceremony. There is also a lion dance team performing in front of the door to celebrate.
A bright red banner with the words "Opening Day Special Offer" written in large golden characters is hung above the store door, which is particularly eye-catching. Below is a detailed description of the promotion: On the opening day, anyone who purchases our store's products can enjoy a buy one get one free offer, but due to limited quantities, it is on a first-come, first-served basis while stocks last!
There is also a large turntable at the door with a pointer on it. There are different small grids painted on the turntable, with different prizes and prices written on them.
Yun Duo walked closer and saw the prizes on the turntable. The biggest prize was a set of cosmetics worth two taels of silver, and the largest prize was a bar of soap worth five cents.
As long as you spend more than 300 Wen in the store, you can draw a lottery for free. The people in the queue have already bought things and are waiting for the lottery.
There were several waiters standing at the door, who were maintaining order in an orderly manner. The crowd was bustling, but under the guidance of the waiters, it seemed orderly.
Yun Duo took Li Xiuxiu's hand and walked through the crowd to the door of the store. As soon as they entered the door, a faint fragrance came to their noses, making them feel relaxed and happy.
Then, a pretty girl about fifteen or sixteen years old came up with a smile. She was wearing a blue apron with white flowers, on which were embroidered three beautiful and abstract words "Caiyunhui"; she also had a triangular scarf on her head with the same pattern as the apron, which made her look more fresh and refined.
Yun Duo felt even more excited when she saw the three abstract words on the apron. They were the same as the pattern on her family’s modern trademark, written by her grandfather himself. They were very abstract, but one could recognize them as the three words Cai Yun Hui at a glance.
The woman bowed slightly with a professional smile: "Madam, Miss, welcome to Caiyun Club! Please come in. I wonder what you two would like to buy? I can introduce it to you in detail." As she spoke, she turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation, guiding Yun Duo and Li Xiuxiu into the store.
Yun Qingsong and his son entered the bookstore but did not buy anything. They saw Yun Duo and the guards enter the clothing shop, so they came out and walked towards the pier.
The dock is bustling with people coming and going, passenger ships are constantly coming and going, and merchant ships are loading and unloading cargo. It is very lively. The small vendors setting up stalls are selling and hawking their wares, and most of the items they sell are food.
They walked to a tea shop, bought two bowls of tea, and chatted with the uncle selling tea: "Uncle, is there a warehouse for rent nearby? I want to rent one here."
The tea man saw that they were dressed politely like scholars and knew at first glance that they were a father and son: "You two guests want to rent a warehouse? Then you have asked the right person. My son works as a warehouse manager for Mr. Qian here. There are two warehouses that are temporarily unused. I plan to rent them out for a month. Mr. Qian, do you want both or just one? But I can only rent it to you for one month at most. After one month, the owner's cargo ship will come back and we have to take it back."
"Uncle, one month is enough. I only need one room."
"Okay, I'll take you there," he said, and shouted to the back kitchen: "Old woman, take care of the front. These two guests want to rent the warehouse. I'll take them there to have a look."
At this time, an old lady came out from the tea stall and said with a smile: "Okay, go ahead, we are watching here."
The uncle at the tea stall took Yun Qingsong and his son to a warehouse and said, "Take a look at this one. All the warehouses here belong to Boss Qian. Only these two have not been loaded yet. The boss's merchant ship will not be back for another month, so we can rent this place to you."
Yun Qingsong went in and took a look. It was quite big, and should be enough to hold Yun Duo's seeds.
"Uncle, how do I rent this warehouse?"
"Five hundred coins a month for no care of the goods. Eight hundred coins for care of the goods."
Yun Qingsong was about to pay for the rent when Yun Chenxing, who had remained silent, spoke up: "Dad, 500 wen a month for this warehouse is a bit expensive. We only keep our goods for a few days, so it's not cost-effective. Let's go ask somewhere else!"
When the uncle at the tea stall heard that the cooked duck was about to run away, he became a little anxious. The owner didn't need the warehouse anymore, and if it was rented out temporarily, the rent would all be paid by his son. If it was left empty, he would be left with no money.
"Young Master, we can talk it over. If you think it's too expensive, you can reduce it by fifty cents. What do you think? All the places around here are long-term rentals, and it's not easy to find a warehouse like yours for short-term rental."
"Uncle, how about we just rent it for half a month and give you 200 coins? If we need to rent it temporarily again in the future, we will come to you."
When the old man heard that two hundred coins for half a month would be enough, it was free anyway.
"Okay, I'll rent it to you for half a month!" The tea stall owner thought that half a month would be fine, so that he could explain if the owner came back early.
Yun Qingsong paid the rent, and the tea stall owner gave him the key. It was a short-term lease of half a month, and there was no written contract. He just handed over the money and the key.
"Uncle Yang, are you here to rent a warehouse again?"
"It's Shopkeeper Xu! The boss won't be back for another month, so the warehouse is just sitting there, so I'll rent it out for half a month. I heard that some of the cloth you bought yesterday got soaked in water. Did you sell it?"
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Xu sighed and said, "Hey! Forget about Uncle Yang. The cargo ship I rented had some water seepage at the bottom of the cabin, and about a hundred pieces of cotton cloth were soaked in water. Fortunately, the leak was discovered and the gap was plugged in time. Fortunately, the soaked cloth was only cotton cloth. If it was silk, I would have suffered a heavy loss!
Uncle Yang, you meet a lot of people at your tea stall. Please ask the passing merchants for me. I will sell the cloth for thirty taels. I will give you two hundred coins as reward. My cloth is all top-quality cotton cloth. The cost is at least three hundred coins per piece! One hundred pieces is thirty taels of silver. This does not include labor and shipping costs. "
When the tea stand owner heard that he would be paid 200 coins for the sale, he smiled and agreed: "Manager Xu, we are friends! I will ask you when some merchants come to the tea stand to drink tea. Although the color is not bright after soaking in water, and some may be stained, it is also very good to sell it to the country people to make clothes. Fine cotton cloth is more comfortable to wear than coarse linen."
Yun Chenxing had heard from his mother before that a piece of fine cotton cloth cost about five hundred coins. Although it cost only three hundred coins after being soaked in water, it was still very cheap. If he bought it back home, his fellow villagers would rush to buy it after hearing this and the price.
"Manager Xu, can you take me to see the soaked fabrics? If they are not serious, I can buy them all."
The tea stall owner was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. This reward came as soon as he said it would: "Manager Xu, look, this business is coming as soon as you say it will. Take this master and the young master to have a look."
Shopkeeper Xu took Yun Chenxing and Yun Qingsong to a warehouse not far from the warehouse they rented. Yun Chenxing looked at the soaked cotton cloth and found it was not too bad because it was just soaked in water. The pattern of the cotton cloth was also very beautiful, but it looked a little dirty. Because the dyeing technology was quite good, there was basically no water-stained pattern. It would be good to take it home to wash and dry it before making clothes.
Yun Chenxi asked: "How many horses do you have, Boss Xu? I want all of them."
Boss Xu thought that if he sold it, he would have to free up space. If he didn't sell it, he would have to hire someone to dry it, otherwise it would grow hair and become even less valuable. So he said happily: "Young Master, I have a total of 101 batches here. You can give me 30 taels and 200 coins. I will take 30 taels and give the other 200 coins to Uncle Yang as a middleman. Is this okay with you, Master and Young Master?"
Yun Chenxi thought about it: "Boss Xu, this money is no problem, I won't bargain with you, you can have someone send all the fabrics here to my newly rented warehouse, okay?"
"Okay, I'll have someone move it over right away. One hundred pieces of cloth were moved over in just a few trips. Yun Qingsong paid the money, locked the door of the warehouse, and left."
