As the days passed, Lantian County began to change bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, it was the middle of February. Many citizens had noticed the recent changes in Lantian County!
"Strange Taste Pavilion is opening a branch in Lantian County!"
"Really? Looks like Marquis is starting to take our county seriously! "
"It's not just Strange Taste Pavilion. I heard that Drunken Immortal House, Quirky Culture, Skillful Craftsman House, Appraisal House, Elegant House, Elegant House, Jade Treasure Hall, Earth Treasure House, Huizang House, and Treasure House are all here to open branches! "
"Is there really such a thing? Why didn't I know about it? "
"Hey! How can it be fake? Yesterday, when it was almost dark, I saw a few shops over at the South Market with their signboards hanging up! I think they'll be officially opening in two days? "
China's market square system originated from the Western Zhou Dynasty and gradually matured during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. "In the Tang System, a hundred households is a Li, five Li is a Village. Those who live in a State or County are called Squares, those outside the State or County are called Villages. Li, Villages, and Squares all have Zhengzheng. Li Zhengzheng is in charge of household registration, teaching farming and mulberry farming, inspecting violations, and urging people to pay taxes. Square Zhengzheng is in charge of the Gate Key, inspecting traitors. "It was clear that there was a clear division in Tang Dynasty's Li Fang.
In the capital city of Chang 'an. "South of the Imperial City, there are ten Squares from east to west and nine Squares from north to south. East and west of the Imperial City, there are twelve Squares each. “
As for Lantian County, although it was only one-tenth the size of Chang 'an, the city still strictly adhered to the market square system of this era. It was divided into ten Residential Squares and one Market Square. All the shops and restaurants were in the Market Square in the south of the city.
"Heh! Doesn't that mean that we don't have to travel all the way to Chang 'an City in the future? Here in Lantian County, we can eat Chang' an City's delicacies and buy Chang 'an City's goods! Haha! "
"Hey! It's true! When Drunken Immortal opens, I'll go and try it. Let's see if it tastes the same as Drunken Immortal Restaurant in Chang 'an City! "
"Yo! Old Master Wu, only you can afford it. People like us, whether in Chang 'an City or Lantian County, can't afford to eat by Drunken Immortal Restaurant's food! When the time comes, I'll go to Qiqu Culture to buy a book for my child. The books there are still very cheap! "
"Haha! What a joke! You must be joking! "
The anticipation of the masses could only be described with these four words! After all, no one would be willing to travel all the way to Chang 'an if there were good goods and delicious food nearby. Therefore, the people of Lantian County were looking forward to the opening of these shops that had moved over from Chang 'an!
"Strange Interest Pavilion, Drunken Immortal House, and Strange Interest Culture are opening today with a 30% discount. Don't miss it! Look, it's written in the newspaper that Strange Interest Pavilion and Drunken Immortal Restaurant are opening for business today! "
The busy people who were preparing to go out in the morning came across a boy selling newspapers. They casually bought a newspaper and inadvertently saw the small "advertisement" in the middle of the newspaper. Instantly, they became excited!
One spread to ten, ten spread to a hundred, and not long after, the entire Lantian County was in an uproar!
"Thirty percent discount? This was too worth it! Today, I can finally afford to eat a meal at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant. I must go and have a taste! "
"That's right! Let's go together! Oh, and I'm going to buy two books! "
"Haha! Look, it's not just the Drunken Immortal Restaurant and Strange Interest Pavilion! Craftsman Pavilion, Treasure Pavilion, and Elegant Study are also opening for business today! And it's also a 30% discount! "
"Heh! Then no matter what, this old man will go and buy a bicycle today! With a 30% discount and a membership card, this bicycle will only cost about 200 strings of coins! It's too cheap! "
"Wow! It's true! Buy a bicycle! I must buy a bicycle today! If I can buy one, I'll make a profit! "
"I wonder how many bicycles Craftsman Pavilion, Treasure Pavilion, and Elegant Study will have today! These things used to be priceless in the past! "
Dozens of shops were opening for business at the same time, and all the goods were at a 30% discount. Such a huge commotion caused this small county that had been peaceful for more than a decade to suddenly become lively!
Even the people far away in Chang 'an and the surrounding counties rushed to Lantian County after hearing the news from today's Datang Daily. If you can buy something, you'll make a profit. This saying was not wrong at all in today's situation!
Especially when it came to bicycles. Although the workshop had supplied a large number of bicycles to Craftsman Pavilion, Treasure Pavilion, and Elegant Study in Chang 'an after the new year, it still could not meet the huge demand of the market! There were still many people who wanted to buy a bicycle!
"Line up! Line up! Today's bicycles are fully stocked at Elegant Study, so don't worry! Also, to save everyone's time, all the goods from Elegant Study can be traded with Tang Yuan! "
In the southern market square of Lantian County, the Lin family's housekeeper was shouting with all his might.
There were simply too many people, so he had to come out to maintain order!
"Tang Yuan? What's Tang Yuan? "
The people who came to buy bicycles were puzzled when they heard that.
The Lin family's housekeeper chuckled and said, "Dear customers, did you not read today's Datang Daily carefully? Today, other than the opening of our big shops, Yanhuang Bank in East Dao Yi Lane of Lantian County is also opening! Everyone can exchange their copper coins for Tang Yuan at the bank. Here, this is a Tang Yuan. A Tang Yuan is a fixed amount of money. If you use Tang Yuan to buy things, you can save a lot of time! "
Hearing the housekeeper's words, those who had newspapers on hand immediately flipped through the newspapers on the spot, looking for news about Tang Yuan!
"Hey! Datang Daily really wrote about it! This Yanhuang Bank was established by Marquis, Zhao Guogong, and six wealthy businessmen in the capital. They invested 580,000 copper coins as a guarantee to establish a bank to exchange Tang Yuan! Everyone can go to the bank to exchange their copper coins for Tang Yuan, or exchange Tang Yuan for copper coins. There's only a 1% fee in between! "
Soon, some people saw the news about Yanhuang Bank and Tang Yuan in the newspaper!
Actually, they couldn't be blamed for not reading the newspaper carefully. It was just that when most people saw that the top shops in the capital, led by Strange Taste Pavilion, had opened branches in Lantian County and had a 30% discount on everything, their first reaction was to rush over as soon as possible to get a bargain. Why would they continue reading the newspaper?
"Oh! So it's Marquis who's personally vouching for it! What's there to worry about? And Tang Yuan is so much more convenient than copper coins! I have to exchange for some Tang Yuan! "
When the people heard that Li Zexuan was personally vouching for the bank, they didn't have much resistance in their hearts.
"But if I go to exchange for Tang Yuan, what if I run out of bicycles later?"
Someone said worriedly.
"Hehe! Dear customers, don't worry! Our shop will only officially open at nine in the morning. There's still more than an hour! Also, customers who want to use Tang Yuan to buy goods can queue up separately! It's a good opportunity for everyone to see how much faster it is to use Tang Yuan to buy things compared to copper coins! "
