Chapter 14 Starting Price
Zuixiao Tower.
"Six thousand taels?"
Cao Da frowned slightly.
The shopkeeper Meng Qi nodded and said, "Yes, this is the offer Kou Yi just gave me, and they will no longer split and sell it, but the price has increased by one thousand taels compared to before."
After hearing this, Cao Da couldn't help but frown and ponder.
Meng Qi said again: "The boss, it seems that the rumors outside are not false. Chen Fangyuan is very likely to hurt people because of his original intention and make a mistake, so as to increase the price of Chenlou."
Cao Da glanced at Meng Qi.
Meng Qi said again: "If Chen Fangyuan was not hurting people with his original intention, then Chen Lou's current situation would not be in a hurry to take the initiative to come to us. It can be seen that he is almost unable to hold on, and the extra thousand taels must be to make up for the losses during this period. Now it is said that this is how it is spread outside."
When Chen Fangyuan went to Kou's family, the restaurant industry and the teeth shop were watching. On the second day, someone came to the door to test. The Kou's family reported 6,000 taels to the public and canceled the split and sold it. As a result, after the news came out, they were even more sure of their thoughts. Chen Fangyuan was hurting people with his original intention.
Because this is not in line with common sense, business is getting better, even if you want to sell, it should slow down the sale, rather than rushing to sell. The cancellation of the split sale at this time proves that Chen Fangyuan really intends to sell Chenlou.
At the same time, the Kou family was secretly investigating the profits of the return voucher. If they investigated carefully, it would not be very difficult.
That afternoon.
"Miss."
Kou Yi quickly walked into the house in the store and said to Kou Weisha: "Miss, I've already got some clues about the return voucher, but because Chenlou is still sending back voucher and is full of tricks, it is difficult to calculate the specific profit distribution in a short time, but we can be sure that the return voucher is not about hurting people with the original purpose, and as long as the number of customers who come to visit every day reaches a certain number, there is a lot of profit."
Kou Weisha smiled, "It's true."
Kou Yidao: "So what should we do next?"
Kou Weisha said: "Since that's the case, we don't have to worry. When they react, they will naturally come to us on their own initiative."
.......
Yizhun hurts people, Yizhun hurts people, they all say that Chen Lou is hurting people, but the problem is that he has been injured for so long, why hasn’t he been injured yet? Even if he moans, it’s fine!
Not only that, Chenlou also increased the discount, such as giving some cold dishes, a small plate of pickled vegetables, and a pot of wine sold. The large plate is only a little more expensive than the small plate. Various discounts make the guests dizzy.
At the same time, Cao Xiaodong and the others were also crazy about attracting customers. They all made a lot of money and could wake up laughing when they were sleeping at night.
Many days have passed, and Chenlou’s business is getting more and more popular, and there is no intention to stop. The number of customers going to Chenlou is increasing day by day, because foreign merchants also like to gather in the capital for the first time, so that they can get more information. This has led to some dental merchants going to Chenlou to book a table. Only when there are many merchants, dental merchants have business opportunities.
My colleagues were stunned.
Wow! Chen Fangyuan is really rich!
But at the same time, many people have begun to realize that things are not that simple.
Unfortunately, it was too late!
Zuixiao Tower.
"Master, I've calculated it."
Meng Qi reported to Cao Dahui: "Chen Lou is not hurting people with his original intention. According to our calculations, he should have divided the profits into three parts, one for those little beggars, and one for the cash coupons. Therefore, he still has to make a profit. Even if there is an error, it will not be too big. Chen Lou is definitely making money, but he only makes a small profit for each table. But now Chen Lou is crowded with people, and this gathers more, and the money is also a lot."
"That young lady of the Kou family is really not simple! She actually played Jinyulou and Liu family together." Cao Da smiled gloatingly and asked again: "Is the Kou family still selling Chenlou?"
Meng Qi nodded and said, "I have just gone to inquire, and Chen Fangyuan has not terminated his cooperation with the Kou family."
Cao Da stood up and said, "Take the silver to the Kou family." His eyes were very firm.
......
Jinyulou.
"I wonder Uncle Zhou is in a hurry to call his nephew to come, what are you going to give me?"
"What's the matter?"
Zhou Feng suddenly jumped up, pointed at Liu Chengbian and cursed: "You guy is really a big deal for me. If I had known this, I should have chosen to cooperate with the Kou family."
Liu Chengbian was shocked and said, "Why did Uncle Zhou say this?"
Zhou Feng picked up a piece of paper and threw it over, "You can see it yourself."
Liu Chengbian was confused, bent over and picked up the paper, looked carefully, and said in disbelief: "How is this possible?"
"How is this possible? This is calculated carefully by my accountant, and there will be no mistakes."
Zhou Feng said: "Chen Lou not only did not hurt people with his original intention, but also made a lot of money. It was because of you that I missed the opportunity, so it was very difficult to suppress Chen Lou now."
“This is impossible.”
Liu Cheng changed his mind: "It was that boy Guo Dan who told me in person, he couldn't deceive me."
"That stupid boy can't deceive you, but can you guarantee that the Kou family will not use that boy to deceive you?" Zhou Feng snorted.
When Liu Chengbian heard this, he was stunned.
Just then, a servant hurried in and said a few words in Zhou Feng's ear.
After hearing this, Zhou Feng couldn't help but be shocked and immediately said, "Let's go to Kou's family."
Liu Chengbian woke up and said, "Uncle Zhou, what happened?"
Zhou Feng looked at Liu Chengbian with fire in his eyes, and gritted his teeth and said, "This has nothing to do with you, and I will never cooperate with your Liu family in the future."
Liu Chengbian hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhou, my nephew admitted that he was careless at that time, but he also asked Uncle Zhou to give me a chance to make up for the merits."
Zhou Feng frowned slightly, hesitated for a little, and said, "Cao Da has gone to Kou's family. If Cao Da bought Chenlou, there would be endless troubles."
Liu Chengbian frowned. He knew that Zhou Feng could use the government to put pressure on Chen Fangyuan when facing Chen Fangyuan. However, Cao Da had been in the east of the city for many years and had a background as a factory guard. In the Ming Dynasty, he was not the only civil servant. The power of this factory guard should not be underestimated. Moreover, Cao Da's financial strength and ability were far better than Chen Fangyuan. He was not worried before, because Chenlou had no customers. Even if Cao Da came, it would be very difficult to grab customers from him. After all, Liang Yuan was a civil servant's meal. If this restaurant was not opened well, it would be even more difficult in the future.
But now Chenlou has grabbed a group of wealthy business customers. Cao Daruo came to Liangyuan at this time, then there would be capital to confront Jinyulou.
This is what Zhou Feng least wants to see at the moment. He would rather Chen Fangyuan than sell a store.
Of course, this is also the reason why Cao Da rushed to the Kou family. He had always wanted to come to the south of the city and realized that the opportunity might be coming, but he also knew that as Chen Lou's business became better and better, the price would naturally become higher and higher, so he had to act quickly.
But he never expected that as soon as he arrived at Kou's house, he would pour a bucket of cold water on it.
"Eight thousand taels?"
Cao Da was stunned for a while before he came to his senses, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "This price is really too expensive."
He originally thought that 6,000 taels could be discussed. After all, he knew that Chen Fangyuan didn't want to sell it to Zhou Feng and wanted him to take over, but he didn't expect that the other party's words were 8,000 taels, and the contrast was too big.
Kou Shouxin smiled and said, "The price we gave was 5,000 taels at first. Someone asked, but they all thought it was expensive. Later, we gave 6,000 taels, but no one cared about it. Now we offered 8,000 taels. On the contrary, many people came to ask. From this, it can be seen that the price is not low, but whether it is worth the money. I believe that Mr. Cao is far more clear than me about the situation in Chenlou. Eight thousand taels are not high at all!"
Cao Da said: "After that being said, Chenlou itself is worth at most 5,000 taels. Those customers are foreign merchants, and they will not stay in the capital for a long time. This also contains a considerable risk. Eight thousand taels are really too expensive."
Kou Weisha suddenly said: "There is never a shortage of foreign merchants in the capital. It is not difficult for me to use Uncle Cao's methods to monopolize foreign merchants in one fell swoop. Moreover, it is not a problem for our Kou family to do a tooth business for a year or two. Since we offer this price, we are naturally confident that we can sell it. Maybe in a short time, we won't be able to buy these 8,000 taels."
Could it be that they had a trick? Cao Da couldn't help but frown. The price of the eight thousand taels was already beyond his valuation. He felt that this price did not exist and could find a next house. However, when he saw Kou Shouxin and his daughter were full of confidence, he had some doubts in his heart. If Chenlou's business goes up to a higher level and the price rises, he might not be able to afford it.
Moreover, such a large transaction cannot be just looking at the present, but also taking into account the potential. Simply put, it is whether I can buy it to the next level or several levels.
In fact, in later trading markets, many times, companies sold at a price that was overpriced, with a market value of 100 million, and it may be possible to ask for an external price of 200 million, or even 1 billion, because the value of a company is actually very different in anyone's hands. For example, an animation company, under a real estate company, and under Disney, is definitely different.
Just then, a servant suddenly came in and reported: "Master, Mr. Zhou Yuanwai of Jinyulou and the eldest son of the Liu family are looking for a meeting."
When Cao Da heard this, he felt a little worried about gains and losses. Should he agree?
On the contrary, Kou Shouxin, but Kou Weisha was very happy, because he was afraid that no one would rob him of the selling of things.
So Kou Shouxin hurriedly said, "Please."
Guo Dan on the corridor looked at Zhou Feng and Liu Chengbian who were hurried past the front yard. While eating fruit, he smiled and said, "It's so lively today!"
Having said that, he didn't seem to be watching the fun, but he seemed to be appreciating one of his own works.
Zhou Feng and Liu Cheng changed into the hall and greeted each other. On the surface, the four families were harmonious, but everyone could feel the subtle atmosphere.
After Zhou Feng sat down, he said straightforwardly: "Everyone is an old acquaintance and they are tacit. Brother Kou, just offer a price."
This is not grand, but now he knows that he is already passive, in other words, he is just waiting to be slaughtered.
But Cao Da was still a little unhappy and didn't take me seriously. But he also knew that Jinyulou is the second in the restaurant industry, and no one dared to be the first.
Kou Shouxin nodded with a smile and said, "Since Mr. Zhou said this, I won't go around the corner. Mr. Cao had asked about the price just now, and the price I gave was 8,000 taels."
"Eight thousand taels."
Liu Chengbian stood up excitedly, and his expression seemed to say, why don’t you rob it?
Little do you know that for Guo Dan, robbing is not as quick as it can be.
