"What the hell is this Liu Mansion going to do!"
The shopkeeper of the grain store slapped the cabinet loudly, his old face was flushed with anger, veins burst out on his forehead, and the terrible anger was suppressed in his chest. Who in the world would dislike not making much money? A great opportunity was in front of him, but Liu Fu jumped out to disturb it.
Looking at the deserted store, the grain store clerk felt a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice, "Shopkeeper, shall we also lower the price?"
If it does not fall, the grain stocked in the store early in the morning will not be sold.
Earning less is better than not earning at all.
The shopkeeper of the grain shop was almost so angry that his beard was flying and he lost all reason, but he didn't want to be led by the nose when it came to price cuts.
"Can't surrender!" The shopkeeper of the grain shop gritted his teeth secretly, and said, "According to the performance of the Liu family's wealth and wealth, their granary must have a lot of grain, which can withstand such a waste... If we follow suit, and they continue to surrender, then what should we do?"
Although the main family has handed over the power of the grain store to him, if he fails to pay satisfactory income every quarter, he will be the one who will suffer when the time comes, "Let's just look at it for a while and find someone to check it out." Exploring the reality of Liu Mansion..."
The shopkeeper of the grain shop paced back and forth in the shop, with his hands behind his back, as if he wanted to crush the floor tiles under his feet.
The man asked, "Send someone to check their grain depot?"
The shopkeeper was almost about to be laughed angrily by the clerk, and said with a smirk, "Investigate the grain depot of the Liu Mansion, you go?"
The guy quickly shook his head like a rattle.
Just kidding, the grain depot is a cash drawer for the aristocratic family, which is related to daily food.
An outsider is not only allowed to run to investigate the other party's grain depot, if caught, the plot is equivalent to running into someone's kitchen to poison.
It's good that they didn't find out, but if they were found out, it would completely offend the Liu family to death.
The clerk scratched his head honestly, and asked the shopkeeper seriously, "Shopkeeper, I know you are the smartest, what can I do?"
Seeing the clerk's flattering smile, the shopkeeper raised his hand to caress the goatee, with a little smugness in his eyes.
"Come here with your ears."
The two whispered in their ears, and the guy's expression changed from doubt at first to sudden realization later, and he admired the sophistication of the shopkeeper even more.
"Couple trick!" The man patted the shopkeeper's horse, "Shopkeeper, you are so smart."
"What is this?" The shopkeeper felt much more relaxed, and he was not as angry as before. "If you want to manage counties and people, I can't compare with Liu Junshou. But if you want to talk about the way of doing business, I'm afraid Liu The sheriff is just a layman and doesn't know the way."
If that person really understood, how could he make such a mistake and try to use such a crude strategy of continuously lowering prices to harm others and benefit himself?
In terms of business and business, even though the governor of Liu Jun has the talent to manage the world, but in business, he is just a rough man.
Almost no one thought that the behavior of the three grain stores under the Liu Mansion to reduce prices to win customers was not at all Liu She's handwriting.
It can't be blamed for their misunderstanding, whoever is called Liu Xi in the past and Jiang Pengji now, both of them don't like to participate in the Gathering Poetry Conference.
Don't think these activities are boring, in fact, this is also an important way of publicity, an excellent occasion to show one's talent and publicize one's reputation.
If you don't pack it for yourself, don't promote it for yourself, how can outsiders remember Liu Xi?
The former Liu Xi would not do this because of his temperament, but now Jiang Pengji disdains to do so.
Therefore, in the second bedroom of Liu's mansion, outsiders always thought that Liu She was the head of the family, so naturally he was the first thing that came to mind.
Unintentionally, Liu She also took a lot of blame for Jiang Pengji.
In the eyes of outsiders, can offending Liu She and Liu She's son have the same nature?
Everyone in the world is a bully and fears the hard.
If it was the former, ninety-nine out of ten people would be cowardly, after all Liu She is not easy to mess with.
If it's the latter, it is estimated that someone will come to put pressure on them under various names.
Don't torment you to death,
I'm going to annoy you too!
Can't afford to offend Lao Tzu, but still be afraid of other people's cubs?
Of course, if they really do this, they will probably understand a truth.
People's cubs are more annoying than other people's fathers. The latter just make you suffer, and the former directly kills people.
The clerk held the shopkeeper in his hands and flattered him, "That's right, the little ones think so too. When it comes to making money, no one can be older and more sophisticated than you."
"Let's hold our ground for now!" The shopkeeper made a final decision and said, "I'd like to see how much grain he has and how many days he can spend!"
Because there was more food in hand than previously expected, the purchase restriction was not rolled out on the second day.
Jiang Pengji looked coldly at the statistics on the table, which were the price records of thirty-one grain shops in Hejian County.
Except after the first price reduction, they seemed to have reached a certain kind of tacit understanding. Not only did they not follow the price reduction, but the old gods selectively ignored the three grain shops in the Liu Mansion, leaving their own grain shop deserted without a single customer. Unmoved.
Seeing this, Jiang Pengji sneered, "I'm quite calm, but that's it..."
If they immediately choose to lower the price, the loss will be small. If they continue to be so "reserved", she will not be polite.
Early the next morning, Jiang Pengji asked Xu Ke to do something for her.
"This, this... Lang Jun really wants to do this?"
Xu Ke's eyes widened, wouldn't this be too wicked?
Holding a rolled-up letter in her hand, Jiang Pengji knocked on the desk and said angrily, "You also saw the 'grand event' yesterday, although the people were attracted to the grain store, but due to the high price, the people who actually bought it Not many…”
It's not that there are not many, it's just that the number of people is a little less than she expected, and the transaction amount is unsatisfactory.
Xu Ke didn't dare to respond. With yesterday's price at the grain store, it would be strange if more people would actually buy it.
Although the prices of the three grain shops in Liufu have dropped twice, they are still higher than the consumption level of the common people.
Another price cut within a day, people will naturally wait and see with the mentality of "wait a little longer, maybe it will be cheaper".
"I have read the information about Hu County given by my father. This year, there is plenty of rain. It should be a good harvest year. The drought in the two neighboring states is also a little less than in previous years, and the pressure of food shortage will be several percent lower than in previous years. This means that the price of food is in the It will be very cheap after the autumn harvest."
Jiang Pengji said with a cold face, "We have five thousand shi of grain in our hands. It's best to exchange all of it into silver coins before the autumn harvest. After the autumn harvest, we can buy the grain at a low price. The grain has been multiplied several times. If we can't sell it, Instead, you have to pay for it.”
Although these grains are bought and sold at no cost, they can earn 10,000. Who wants to earn so many hundreds?
Jiang Pengji is short of everything now, so she can only use the method of increasing income and reducing expenditure to the limit, and turn the five thousand shi of grain into the maximum benefit.
Xu Ke is silent, so is this the reason why my husband intends to cheat other aristocratic grain shops?
So good and so strong, he was speechless.
Going round and round, his lord still did not forget his original intention of pitting the family, and somehow he felt a little relieved.
