242: The Grain Store Controversy (3)
If you want to improve your competitiveness, you must start with the product itself, service attitude, or price.
Today's people only want to survive, those high-quality services are false, and it is true to spend the least money to feed their stomachs.
Therefore, if other grain stores want to compete with Jiang Pengji, they can only lower their prices accordingly.
Once they lowered the price, Jiang Pengji's goal would be achieved.
Price wars have always been tricky, and the dominant side will fight harder and harder, and those who follow behind can only be led by the nose.
Not to mention, her main goal is not to make money at all.
If you stick to her, you will definitely be cheated.
The few trays prepared were actually pawns to confuse the grain shops.
"Here." Xu Ke responded.
Jiang Pengji put down the opened car curtain, lowered her eyebrows, and asked him suddenly, "Who do you think is responsible for this turmoil?"
Xu Ke: "Pot?"
"Whose fault?"
Jiang Pengji asked again, it seemed that Xu Ke didn't understand the meaning of "pot" at all.
Xu Ke thought seriously, with a serious look on his face.
After all, it was the test given to him by his own lord, if he performed poorly, it would affect his weight in the other party's heart to some extent.
Getting along during this period of time was enough for Xu Ke to understand a truth - when a man employs a man, he does not look at other conditions at all, but only on ability.
If you have an impression of incompetence in the other party's mind, you will not be reused in the future.
However, Mr. Lang's question is too broad, making Xu Ke a little uncertain.
"It's hard to answer this question?" Jiang Pengji asked.
Xu Ke hurriedly said, "Ke is incompetent, but he has a little opinion on the issue of Mr. Lang. From the surface, it should be the disaster of the Meng family in Cangzhou, which caused the people in Hejian to worry about their livelihood. But after careful consideration, Ke also I don’t think that’s the only way it should be.”
Jiang Pengji was noncommittal, and continued to ask, "Is there any more?"
Xu Ke bravely replied, "Perhaps...it's the family's disaster..."
Jiang Pengji's eyes drifted to Xu Ke's face, and the audience in the live broadcast room could clearly see Xu Ke's expression was stiff and livid.
[Drunk Cutting White Snake Soup]: Haha, anchor, don't be like this, you're almost scaring young Xu Ke.
[Steak Meat Thin Noodles]: But Xu Ke is really a young man. The anchor is now a son of a family. pill.
[Old Driver Lianmeng]: #托嘴, what the upstairs said is wrong, the anchor is also very displeased with the family, okay?
"This answer is too broad, it's a panacea answer, but what I want to know is a more detailed inside story. You said it was the family's fault, then what?" Jiang Pengji was not angry because of Xu Ke's offense, but because of his The answer feels unsatisfactory.
So, Xu Ke was stunned in place stupidly.
"This question is really embarrassing for you. Why don't you think about it, why can the food soar endlessly? Why can't the government take measures to protect the interests of the people? It has increased nine times! Several grain shops are like It was discussed in advance, and the price will be raised if you say that the price will increase, and I will also increase if you increase. Filling their pockets, but forcing countless people to starve helplessly?"
Xu Ke said with a smug expression, "Most of the grain shops are under the name of the big family, and they have a lot of grain storage, but the government doesn't have a similar code..."
More importantly, most of the officials are from these aristocratic families. Will they deliberately make things difficult for the family?
Jiang Pengji's complexion was not good, even though she had some success in suppressing food prices, her mood still couldn't get better.
She can't feel better, and neither can others.
With this in mind, she is determined to occupy the grain market in Hejian County for the next two months.
"If you were the prefect of Hejian and you wanted to save these people, what would you do?"
Jiang Pengji threw out another test question,
Xu Ke complained endlessly in his heart.
Who doesn't know that the governor of Hejian is a mascot, has no power, no power, only a name, and can't suppress the rampant family at all? Staying in this seat, even if you have a compassionate Bodhisattva heart, you can only treat all this indifferently.
However, Xu Ke is not very human. After thinking hard, he has a very bold idea in his heart.
His family's husband has always played cards not according to common sense, his thinking is even more unconstrained, and his style is wild and uninhibited.
That being the case, why doesn't he change his way of thinking, maybe he can have a different answer?
With a flash of inspiration, Xu Ke had an idea in his mind.
"If Ke is the prefect of Hejian, with tigers and wolves around him, no power in his hands, and only one prefect, he can't stop the soaring grain prices...In this case, why don't you encourage grain merchants to continue to raise the price of grain? High, the higher the better?"
Jiang Pengji's eyes brightened, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her lips.
The audience members in the live broadcast room were dumbfounded.
Didn't it mean to curb food prices? Why did Xu Ke's answer get the approval of the anchor?
[Old Driver Lianmeng]: I probably understand Xu Ke's young man's idea. Encourage the price of grain to fly to the sky, secretly send people to neighboring counties and counties to publicize, and encourage grain households there to transport grain to Hejian for sale. If the supply is large, but the demand remains the same, the price will naturally decrease.
Merchants pursue profit, this sentence is common in any era.
"However, this method can only be used once."
Jiang Pengji nodded, Xu Ke's answer made her very satisfied.
In any case, she is optimistic about internal affairs talents. Jiang Pengji hopes that Xu Ke will use them more, after all... she is too short of people now!
Until there is no way to recruit suitable people, Xu Ke can only be made more useful.
At the same time, young Xu Ke felt a shudder running down his spine, with a faint premonition of something ominous.
Speaking of other grain stores, there were many customers hovering at the door, even if they might not come into the store to buy, they were all potential customers.
But half a day later, all these people disappeared suddenly, which made the manager of the grain store who was about to make a lot of money very confused.
Send the grain shop guy out to inquire about the news, find out what's going on, and then reply soon.
"Who is so bold?"
The shopkeeper of the grain store is furious, this is a tiger's mouth grabbing food!
The clerk nervously mentioned the owner behind the grain shop, and he fell silent.
It seems to be a competition between grain shops, but if it becomes too embarrassing, it will involve the forces behind each other.
The clerk asked anxiously, "Shopkeeper, what should we do?"
"Tsk, what else can I do? Let's do this first, I'll go to the mansion first and ask the butler for instructions."
At the same time, many shopkeepers of grain shops in Hejian County made the same decision.
The grain shop is a business that can't make a lot of money, but it's hard to lose money. Those aristocratic families didn't take this matter to heart at the beginning, and let the shopkeeper of the grain shop decide for himself.
Those shopkeepers looked back and thought that if they made less money, they would make less money. They were still making money anyway, so they simply lowered the price to the same price.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Pengji got wind of the front foot, and the price was reduced by 20% on the back foot.
