Chapter 1050 Turn off the fire just after opening?(1/2)
"This year's new tea tastes really good! Yang Benman's tea is really awesome!"
"Yes, Yang's Tea is now firmly sitting in the top three places in the Tang Dynasty, bringing considerable benefits to the Yang family every year."
"Now it seems that Yang Benman bought the naming rights of the tallest building in the Tang Dynasty, which was really a masterpiece."
In the backyard of Wang's ready-to-wear shop, Wang Jie, Zheng Hai and Cui Qing were there to relax and chat.
"Brother Zheng, I heard that the Zheng family in Xingyang is now starting to make overseas exploration and overseas trade the focus of the family's future development?"
After a long time of greeting, Wang Jie began to take this opportunity to ask about something he was interested in.
The circulation of information among nobles is often carried out in this way.
This is also an important advantage for noble children over ordinary people.
You may not be able to find out the news after spending a lot of hardships, and you will know it by drinking tea.
"It cannot be said that the focus of future development is overseas, but I think overseas is worth paying attention to it. Look at the Chu Palace, which can earn millions of chunks of money from Japan every year and also obtain cheap spices from Southeast Asia. I discovered Australia before and found a large gold mine. As for the past 17 years of Zhenguan, let alone. Gold and silver mountains are not dreams, and high-yield grains have really appeared.
All these mean that the overseas world is more exciting than we think. Although the risks are also great, the benefits and returns are greater. As long as we spend a little energy there, we may make unexpected money at that time."
The fact that the Zheng family in Xingyang made efforts overseas is not a secret to the nobles, so Zheng Hai had nothing to hide.
As for the benefits of going overseas, I don’t know how many times it has been said in the Datang Daily. Zheng Hai’s words now are nothing more than taking some of them over and saying them again.
"If you want to talk about the risks and benefits of going overseas, the stock price of East Pacific Company is the best proved. When the "Yang Ben Man" was not moving for a long time, East Pacific Company's stock almost fell to the bottom. But once the fleet was safe and the news of historic discoveries came back, everything changed.
Yesterday I also went to Datang Stock Exchange. The stock price of DongPacific Company has now reached more than five cents per share, which is still increasing the price after doubled the stock. Compared with the original low point, it has risen by more than twenty times.
This means that if anyone bought the stock of East Pacific Company that cost 10,000 yuan at the trough last year, his net worth will now become more than 200,000 yuan. It would be scary to think about it."
When Cui Qing said this, he was full of squids.
He also bought some stocks from East Pacific Company at the beginning. Unfortunately, he had already cut his losses when he was falling.
Think about it now, it hurts so much!
"The situation mentioned by Brother Cui reminds me of Gu Panpan, the owner of Gu's clothing shop, before. It is said that she made at least tens of thousands of pounds of money by purchasing stocks from DongPacific Company. Otherwise, the head of the Gu family would not have completely handed over the family industry to her for management."
When he heard Cui Qing talk about the stocks of DongPacific Company, Wang Jie couldn't help but think of Gu Panpan.
These are some legendary figures in the Datang Stock Exchange.
"I have heard of this. At first I thought it was a rumor, but after inquiring, it was true. It is said that Gu Panpan has not sold the stock of DongPacific Company so far. In addition, it is said that Zixia girl, who was the top brand of Tianxiang Pavilion, now also opened a ready-to-wear shop, also made a lot of money by purchasing DongPacific Company's stock."
As soon as Zheng Hai finished speaking, his mood suddenly became less beautiful.
Why do the few people here lose money on the Datang Stock Exchange, but those women they originally looked down on have made so much money?
Doesn’t this mean that even a woman’s vision is not as good as a woman?
Hit people!
"Mr. Lang, are you free now?"
Fortunately, Zheng Hai and others were not depressed for long, and Wang Kun's voice interrupted the atmosphere of the conversation.
"Didn't you see me talking to Brother Zheng and Brother Cui? Can you tell me something later?"
Wang Jie glanced at Wang Kun with an unhappy expression, thinking that this guy is a little inflated?
I trust him very much and I am quite polite when talking to him. I don’t regard him as a servant.
However, this is not a reason why he can interrupt his chat at will.
"Mr., the situation outside is a little wrong!"
Seeing Wang Jie's face twitching, Wang Kun bit the bullet and explained there.
He knew very well that children from aristocratic families like Wang Jie paid great attention to face.
Once he feels that you have lost his face, it is definitely a big deal.
"Brother Wang, the important thing is important. You don't have to worry about us. After drinking this cup of tea, we will almost go somewhere else to take a look."
"Yes, if you have something to do, you'll be busy first. Brother Zheng and I will sit here and leave."
Zheng Hai and Cui Qing are not really the kind of friends. Seeing that Wang Kun seemed to have something to discuss with Wang Jie, he also spoke up for Wang Jie.
"It's okay! Everything is planned. What can happen? Although the Wang family in Taiyuan is not as influential as decades ago, it is not something that can be bullied by cats and dogs. Let's continue to drink tea."
Wang Jie said indifferently.
The more Zheng Hai and Cui Qing persuaded each other, the more firm Wang Jie's attitude became.
"Langjun, the business in our shop started to get worse after just one quarter of an hour. On the contrary, the Gu's ready-to-wear shop in front was getting more and more popular, and this situation was completely different from what we expected."
When Wang Kun saw his husband's behavior, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
At this time, he didn't care whether it would embarrass Wang Jie if it would be embarrassing to tell him about this.
Anyway, even if he doesn't talk about this kind of thing now, he can see it at a glance when he goes out later.
"puff!"
Wang Jie sprayed out the tea that he had drunk in his mouth in one sip.
As a result, Zheng Hai, who was sitting opposite him, was in trouble.
Fortunately, it was just a sip of tea, just a small area wet.
However, this also destroyed the atmosphere just now.
Wang Jie's face was no longer as gentle as before, but instead said with a ugly expression: "What did you say? The business in our shop has become worse so quickly?"
"Yes, after the people who were queuing up to buy clothes, the crowd behind slowly dispersed. I went to confirm that many people went to the Gu's ready-to-wear shop in front to buy clothes. Similar clothes are almost 20% cheaper than us."
Wang Kun was in a bad mood, too.
After making so many preparations, I couldn't even compare to a Gu's ready-to-wear shop that did almost nothing. Where did I put my face?
Although the current business of Wang's ready-to-wear shops is better than some of the ready-to-wear shops opened nearby, it depends on input and output.
Other ready-to-wear shops have been opened for a long time. The number of customers there are basically fixed every day, and there will be no additional investment in too much cost to promote.
But the shop is different.
Even if it doesn’t count the subsequent publicity costs, it has already spent 2,000 guan.
How much clothes do you have to sell to earn two thousand stagnants of money?
Originally, I thought of relying on the role of advertising to make my own ready-to-wear shop the most popular shop in Chang'an City, and copper coins flow in every day.
Gradually, through the sale of some mid-range clothes, the ready-to-wear shops became an important source of profit for the Wang family in Taiyuan.
But now...
This is also why Wang Kun couldn't wait for a quarter of an hour and came in to report to Wang Jie.
Just scold me. Now I’m better than being scolded later?
"It's 20% lower than us? How can they make money? Do they make a loss to make a shout?"
Wang Jie is also quite clear about the cost of ready-made garments.
If the price of the clothes in Gu's ready-to-wear shop is 20% lower than that of his own, he should have no money to make it.
Because it is open today, there is already a 20% discount, and it is still lower than yourself on this basis. What does this mean?
Do you deliberately oppose the Wang family in Taiyuan?
It shouldn't be!
"Langjun, I just looked at the flyer they sent. It said that as long as the customer has collected thirty signatures, he can buy a specific style of garment at a loss. I estimate that the quality of these designated styles of garments must be relatively poor, and they should also use relatively poor cotton cloth. In addition, large-scale processing of the same style of garments is relatively low, so people dare to sell them so cheaply.
Moreover, their offer is only valid for three days before opening, so today it attracted a large number of customers. It’s all my fault. I didn’t pay attention to the leaflets of Gu’s ready-to-wear shop before. I think they are just like other shops. Even if they send out the leaflets, they don’t make any advertisements in the newspaper. Who knows that there are so many names in their leaflets.”
Wang Kun was crying, but his eyes were constantly observing Wang Jie's reaction.
To a certain extent, failing to investigate Gu's ready-to-wear shop in a timely manner is also considered his dereliction of duty.
If Wang Jie throws the blame on him, Wang Kun will really have no way to refute it.
Fortunately, with Zheng Hai and Cui Qing watching, Wang Jie was embarrassed to give up his image completely.
"Brother Zheng, Brother Cui, I made you laugh. I will hold a banquet at Diandude to drink at the two brothers' stand, and I will lose my companion today."
At this time, Wang Jie couldn't sit still.
He also wanted to use the ready-to-wear shop as his main achievement in the 18th year of Zhenguan. If he had suffered such a big blow just now, would his business be better in the future?
"Brother Wang, I just remembered that there is something else in Weishui Academy, so I'll go and deal with it first."
Of course, Zheng Hai would not be unable to get along with Wang Jie at this time, so he quickly found an excuse and stood up and left on his own initiative.
Cui Qing also followed suit and said, "Our cosmetic shop has also caused some trouble recently. I have to go back and deal with it today and make an appointment another day."
In less than a minute, the backyard was cleaned.
Wang Jie and Wang Kun came to Gu's clothing shop in person.
The streets here were already crowded with people queuing up, and many police officers were helping to maintain order, fearing that there would be any stampede accident.
"Langjun, I spent 100 cents to buy a piece of clothing for Gu's ready-to-wear shop from someone else. The cotton cloth is very thin and the cost is probably half of ours. And you also see these stitches, but they are not as strong as ours. At first glance, they are products that cut corners.
