In the following days, Bei Wenkang spent his ti eating and shopping within his territory.
After having his fill, he finally regrouped with his people.
Their last stop was not anywhere else, but the market.
After all, they had another purpose besides buying things not available in Yuxi Village; they also needed to sell so of the village’s surplus goods as well as... the items he had specially researched.
After observing the economic system of Hope Village, Bei Wenkang had realized one thing: the developnt of a territory is not just about internal economic circulation, but also the exchange between internal and external economies.
If Hope Village hadn’t traded with the outside world, would they have so much money to develop their territory? Certainly not.
Thus, he spent money in Hope Village in the hope that Hope Village would spend money on him in return.
He had confidence in the goods he brought.
But now, he was also planning to see if there was anything else in his territory that Hope Village might need, which he could provide over the long term.
If he could supply regularly, his territory could also beco more stable thanks to Hope Village, and he could justify his actions to the residents of his territory.
The market was located behind Comrcial Street, connected to the hotel, and occupied a large space.
Even so, at this mont, it was overcrowded.
Leaders of rchant teams and rcenary Teams gathered in this area, and the sounds of bargaining filled the air.
"Can you make it any cheaper?"
"This is already the lowest price. Go ask around the entire market, no one has prices as low as ours! Our goods co directly from our rcenaries, so the cost is a bit lower, that’s why we can offer such prices. Otherwise, go see if you can find this price anywhere else; if not, feel free to shop elsewhere. I’ve got plenty of custors! Today’s stock is running low, so if you don’t buy now, you’ll have to wait till tomorrow."
"Exactly, if you’re not buying then step aside, we want to make a purchase!"
"Don’t block the way."
"I’ll buy it, I’ll buy it!"
"..."
Listening in, Bei Wenkang glanced at the stall and saw the big characters for "Convenience Hall" and instantly knew that it must be the stall set up by Zhong Yongnian.
These people, they live comfortably in Hope Village.
Hope Village has provided them with a favorable business environnt.
Of course, what’s most important is that they knew how to seize the opportunity, taking the lead to produce jerky and making it a specialty of Hope Village.
There are many from the modern era who know how to make jerky, but few have managed to scale it up so greatly.
Sure enough, as he walked further in, he saw many other jerky stalls with various nas, clearly not all run by Convenience Hall.
Now with Hope Village’s business booming, other small teams naturally also started to produce so jerky to sell. Although not on a large scale, they too could turn a small profit.
Basically, there was haggling at every stall.
Convenience Hall had also left room for other stalls to thrive, basically only offering lower-than-market prices for bulk purchases, which only more substantial rchant teams and rcenary Teams could afford.
Smaller rchant teams and rcenary Teams naturally opted to buy from the other smaller stalls.
Understanding these details, Bei Wenkang couldn’t help but feel imnse envy.
He followed his team around, looking here and there, while also inquiring about the prices of various goods.
And while asking, Bei Wenkang also noticed a familiar figure.
"Yun Juncai!" Bei Wenkang had planned to find him later, but unexpectedly he saw him right away and naturally approached to greet him.
Yun Juncai had also noticed Bei Wenkang and his group.
"Lord Bei, what are you planning to buy this ti?" Yun Juncai asked directly.
Though there had been a bit of friction between Bei Wenkang and Hope Village at the start, after several visits, either personally or through representatives to trade in Hope Village, he had co to understand the other side’s intentions.
Especially upon learning that Yuxi Village had been secretly copying Hope Village, he knew that Bei Wenkang was changing, and regardless of the reasons, as long as the change was beneficial for the residents of his territory, it was enough.
They were all from Blue Star, and he too hoped that the number of territories that could establish a long-lasting foothold in this world would increase.
"I plan to buy so spices to take back with ." Bei Wenkang hurriedly responded.
Last ti he ca, Hope Village had a lot of finished goods, so naturally, he chose those.
To his surprise, in the short ti since then, Hope Village had managed to produce so many ingredients.
