The most alive place in it was the old Gostiny Dvor, then Bread street, “lined with strong merchant horomone”. Some of these “coromin” and now stands on the same street. The main breadwinner of the town were the river Iset. On its banks settled “strong hlebopechenie population, and fertile TRANS-Ural Chernozem gave fabulous harvests, without the need for the fertilizer”. The town took possession of the entire grain trade in the district. The peasants grew rich, became merchants, built the stone city in the Metropolitan sample. Merchants carried their possessions on the Torzhok – famous Krestovskaya-Ivanovo fair, next to Shadrinska. It operated until 1913 and was considered third in the Russian Empire in terms of turnover after the Nizhny Novgorod and Irbit. In a hundred years, the fair was revived. In 2016, in its place opened a monument to pre-revolutionary penny. Coin sample 1877, mounted on a large stone. On the base are carved the words “penny convoy driving”.

He talked about how, as a wily local Governor to make amends to the Metropolitan authorities, has managed to establish a supply of geese in Saint Petersburg. Say to the king’s table, they walked all the way from beyond the Urals. What happened at that time at the diplomatic reception at the Empress “the English Ambassador” much like roast goose and he suggested to Catherine the great to trade “this bird”. And the expression “What Shadrinsk goose!” have since become popular. Talk about a clever, resourceful man, who in his mind, as a merchant in the sculptural composition “Old town”.
