MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 860 How to solve
As the actual person in power in Yunnan, Lord Qianguo knows what happened in the city.
The day after Huo Xi opened, he went in to see it in person.
I admire Huo Xi's brain very much, how could he come up with such a business method? Not to mention others, even he likes to buy things in this kind of shop.
Usually, people come and go on the street. As long as he goes to the street, the people will surround him so that he can't walk. He has no chance to look at the goods and pick the goods. Things can't wait to hold them in front of him.
It made him less fun.
He often thinks of the joy of picking and buying goods when he was wandering on the bustling streets of Beijing when he was young and stayed in Beijing as a pledge. Numerous times, he lamented in his heart the inconvenience that his status brought to him.
But now this north-south freight company has solved his problem.
First of all, at the entrance, there will be guards guarding the gate, and at the first gate, suspicious people such as local ruffians and beggars will be stopped outside the door. The number of people entering the venue will also be controlled according to the flow of people in the shop.
Wandering inside is not crowded.
And he was dazzled by the amount of goods in each warehouse. He never knew that there are so many kinds of cloth, and baskets are not only made of various materials, but also can be made into so many shapes. There are even dozens of types of fans, each of which is different. It was an eye-opener.
He never knew that there are so many countries on the other side of the sea, and so many strange things are shipped here.
He can watch it for half a day just in a foreign store.
The Duke of Guizhou is happy not to miss Shu. He has truly experienced the joy of shopping, and his favorite thing to do in his spare time is to wander around the North and South Merchant Stores to see and pick out goods.
So when he heard Jun Xiangjie crying to him, saying that Huo Xi broke the rules and caused everyone to lose business, and asked him to order the closure, Qian Guogong frowned.
He is clear about the origin of this daughter-in-law. When I was a child, because of the change of the court, I was raised outside. In order to make a living, I started a business and returned to the family ten years later. She is also registered with the emperor to do business. He couldn't make her stop either.
And he has visited both the perfume store and the North-South goods store. Not only him, but all the officials and aides praised Mrs. Zhang's brains. Said she has wrists and means.
Perfume shop, with his status, he has a large bath in the mansion, and there is no need to go out to soak in the bath. He doesn't have much feeling about the perfume shop, but all the officials and staff highly respect it. Now everyone doesn't like to go to Hualou Restaurant to talk about things, but like to go to perfume shops in groups.
Moreover, the North-South Freight Company also opened their eyes. Not only him, everyone likes to go inside to see and choose goods.
As for Zhang’s opening of a shop, the merchants lost their business...
"If the goods are in good condition and the price is right, how can there be no business?"
Jun Xiangjie secretly slandered, with a status like the Duke of the State, how could he understand the hard work of a businessman.
But he didn't dare to show it on the surface. She just cried bitterly: "Master, Mrs. Shizi, this is breaking the rules. She does all the business by herself, and she can buy everything from her. She also sets up a resting place and gives free gifts. Tea, snacks, and home delivery after buying something, who doesn’t like to buy things there.”
How else do other people do business?
"Then can you also learn from it? If the service is improved, there may be business? I have seen the free tea from the Nanbei Merchant Store. A little tea foam can make a big pot. How many copper coins will it cost? It's not all you can eat for the guests, just a small piece of flower cake. Isn't it worth much?"
If the merchants are willing to learn one or two tricks, how can there be no business.
Jun Xiangjie was at a loss for words.
Is it a matter of money or not? This is a broken rule! Never done this before! Mrs. Zhang is doing this and that again, resorting to frequent tricks, snatching away all the customers, how can others do business!
"It's still a trivial matter. The most important thing is Mrs. Shizi. She buys all kinds of goods in large quantities. The price of buying is already cheap, and the selling price is also cheap. Then who will buy it in our shop? Business can't Lower prices to suppress peers?"
"Then the price she bought is low, so you can't ask her to sell it at the same price as you?"
If it doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense with the Duke. Jun Xiangjie was even more distressed.
If he mentions the door-to-door delivery of Nanbei Freight Forwarding, will the Duke ask them to learn to do the same?
That means Zhang has someone in his hands! The Zhuang Bing raised by the son asked her to be a doorman, so what's the problem with delivering the goods?
If they make money, they are willing to have someone deliver it to their door. It seems wrong to think so, didn't they make money before?
Jun Xiangjie shook the thoughts in his head. In short, Mrs. Zhang broke the rules.
Seeing that he was still sulking in his old age, Duke Qian also felt that his tone seemed wrong.
According to his observation, since the opening of the store, there have only been a lot of customers who have bought goods from the North-South Merchant Store. Zhang has a manpower and a fleet, so she has a natural advantage in buying goods from the North-South. business.
Qian Guogong pondered for a moment, and appeased Jun Xiangjie: "All businessmen have made great contributions to the prosperity of the local economy. As a Duke, I can't just ignore everyone's difficulties. I will talk to Mrs. Shizi of."
"Thank you, Duke."
After Jun Xiangjie left, Duke Qian called several people to understand the situation, and also called his subordinates and staff to discuss...
In the evening, after Huo Xi returned to the mansion after the North and South Merchant closed its shop, Duke Qian called him to the study.
"I have met the Duke."
"There's no need to be too polite." Qian Guogong looked harmonious, glanced at Huo Xi's stomach, and looked away.
"We have a lot of yards in our mansion, why don't you ask your uncle to live in the mansion? This shows that we have no sincerity in hospitality."
Huo Xi smiled, "I reserved a yard in the east courtyard for my uncle. Recently, there are too many things in the shop, and some of them are too busy. Uncle can keep an eye on it if he stays outside."
"That's good, don't wait." "Yes."
"You are heavy now, and some things can be handed over to the people below. There is no need to do it yourself. The child in the womb is still the most important thing."
"Nephew and daughter-in-law understand. It's nothing more than sitting in the shop every day and looking through the account books. There are many servants around me who take good care of me. Thank you, Lord Guo, for your concern."
"That's good."
Duke Qian hesitated for a moment, then asked about the situation of the shop, and said, "I heard that the North and South Merchandise Store is very busy, and several commercial streets in the city are lined with business all of a sudden. Mrs. Zhang, what can you do to solve it?" Law?"
Duke Qian naturally wants to protect his family in front of Jun Xiangjie, an outsider. Moreover, the perfume store was really liked by the common people. Even he liked to visit the North-South goods store, and he didn't want them to close down.
But the prosperity of the local economy cannot be achieved by one person alone. It is his fault if the business in the city loses its vitality and causes a large outflow of people.
His father moved to the Han people, and then attracted businessmen from all over the place to operate here. After decades of painstaking efforts, the current results have been achieved. If a large number of businessmen were attracted to move back to the south of the Yangtze River and the Central Plains because of the opening of the North and South Merchant, all previous efforts would be wasted.
