Chapter 1044 - 879, Younger Brother and Sister
Yan Shouhou had arranged both grain stores long ago, named Four Seasons Grain Store, one in the center of the main street, the other next to the city gate.
The one in the center of the main street planned to sell more fine grains; the one near the city gate mainly sold wheat, sorghum, corn, and millet.
As soon as the grain arrived, the butler and clerks started getting busy.
On the first day of February, the Four Seasons Grain Store officially opened for business.
The new store naturally attracted many onlookers.
The butler smiled and said at the entrance of the store, "Ladies and gentlemen, the various grains sold at Four Seasons Grain Store are all priced according to Beijing’s market prices, and the prices for the seed grains are the same. We welcome everyone to come and purchase."
"Four Seasons Grain Store? There’s also a Four Seasons Grain Store in Beijing that I’ve heard sells high-yield grain varieties. Are you the same owner?"
Even in remote Xiliang, there were always some daring enough to venture out.
Clearly, the person asking had been to Beijing.
The butler nodded with a smile, "Yes, the Four Seasons Grain Store on Chang’an Street in Beijing is also owned by our Madam. You can be assured of your purchases."
