you have to unlock the barn first, just do the quests

Yep. If you don't own a chicken yet you're still technically in the tutorial. IIRC for the first village get the inn repaired. the flower shop open and your barn repaired and the shops should open.
It's the same for the other villages; you need to get the star rating up for their services to become available. Quests are the quickest way to do that, though simply selling stuff via the shipping crate will raise it too (although I believe it's capped at 3 stars with specific storyline quests needing to be finished to unlock further growth - in the starting village you need to bring back the flower festival to go higher for example).
