Chapter 50: Competitors
"But it's not, there has been an engineering team here these days to take over the decoration work, if they weren't busy, I wouldn't be looking for you, the price is cheap, the service is considerate, it is said to be from the city"
Xu Tianyu was vigilant for a while, and what he was most worried about still happened. When he first came to the town to make his first money from renovations, he was always worried that someone would come and steal their business.
However, he also knows that competition is inevitable, and he is not the only one who can do this decoration work, and he can't say anything if people want to do it.
"Hey, I said if you guys do it or not, if you do, I'll be fifteen. β
"Eldest sister, moving is a hard job, fifteen is too low" Xu Tianyu shook his head.
"Hmph!" the fat woman snorted heavily, "Don't do it, I'll go find the fifteenth, it's a big deal to wait for one more day, no one's money is blown by the wind, why should I put the cheap ones and don't use your expensive ones?"
After speaking, the fat woman shook the bucket waist and left, Xu Tianyu looked calm, but Liu Ying and the others panicked.
"Brother Yu, what should we do now, someone is robbing our business, and the price is so low, this job is really impossible to do" Ma Yan complained with a stomach full of complaints.
"That's right, Brother Yu, moving is originally a job that makes little effort and earns little money, they are really not authentic, and the price is so low that everyone has no money to earn. Chubby also frowned.
"Don't panic, I'll go to find out the situation first, don't take the moving work first, the price of fifteen is too low, it's better not to do it, everything will be said when I come back." β
Xu Tianyu walked around the community casually, and sure enough, he saw a few workers who were busy moving, and he pretended to ask casually. "Master, you're moving, right?
The worker was unloading a wardrobe from the car, tired and panting, "Fifteen, we don't take jobs, we have to move to find our manager, we don't talk about business, we only work." β
Xu Tianyu was stunned, yo, you are still organized.
"Where's your manager? I'm going to talk to him. β
"The fat man under the umbrella over there is, if you want to move, you will go there to register the decoration first, and then you will arrange for someone to go to your house. β
Xu Tianyu immediately became interested, their operation is very similar to the regular decoration company in later generations, it seems that the opponent this time is very strong.
He looked up, and sure enough, there was a standing sun umbrella not far away, he walked forward, and when he got closer, he saw a table under the sun umbrella, and there was a sign on it, which said Fuqiang Decoration Company. A chubby man in a suit sits behind a desk with a fan in his hand.
There was an open notebook on the table, on which many lines were densely written. Xu Tianyu took a sneak look, they were all some building numbers, it should be their next business, it seems that their business is good.
Are they too late? No. He kept an eye on the progress of the project, and when it was completed, he came almost immediately. Even if this rich and powerful decoration company comes early, it is impossible to finish all the work, and the most likely situation is that they just took over the work and have not done it yet. In other words, Xu Tianyu still has a chance to snatch these jobs from them.
At this time, the chubby manager also saw Xu Tianyu, he immediately put down the fan in his hand, stood up from the chair, and asked with a smile.
"Excuse me, sir, if you need to move or renovate, just register with me, and we will arrange for someone to come to your home as soon as possible. β
His words confirmed Xu Tianyu's conjecture, they just took over the business, and they didn't have time to start work yet, so Xu Tianyu still had a chance.
"What is the price of your decoration? β
The fat manager smiled all over his face, shook his head and said, "It depends on how far you need to decorate, if it is a luxury decoration, it will definitely be a little more expensive, if it is a simple decoration, it is relatively cheaper, we have different services here, different prices for you to choose." β
Xu Tianyu nodded, it was indeed a bit of a doorway. He continued, "Can you show me what your luxurious dΓ©cor looks like?"
The fat manager took out a few black and white photos and showed them to Xu Tianyu, and said, "This is the effect of our luxury decoration, of course, the actual effect is also related to your house type." β
Xu Tianyu picked up the photo curiously, looked at it, and sneered in his heart. I thought they were so capable, this decoration style is too old-fashioned, of course, this is in the eyes of his later generations, in the eyes of people at that time, this is also a relatively trendy decoration style.
Seeing this, Xu Tianyu knew in his heart, and he continued to ask tentatively, "Why haven't I heard of your company? Is there a rich and powerful decoration company in the town?"
"It's true that we're not a local company, we're from the city, and we do business, and we go wherever there's a need. As long as we do a good job, you don't care where we come from, little brother, do you decorate or not?"
The fat manager was slightly impatient, are you here to decorate or chat, why do you talk so much.
Xu Tianyu nodded thoughtfully, "Another day, another day to patronize your business." β
After saying that, he left quickly, and the fat manager was slightly disappointed. They are indeed not local, but a renovation company in the city, but because of the limited level, they can't mix in the city, so they thought of coming down to get some oil and water.
Of course, their strength is still very strong, with a dedicated designer and construction team. Where have you seen the people in the town with that professional quality? So they attracted everyone's attention as soon as they appeared.
Xu Tianyu returned to their stall, and Liu Ying and the others sat listlessly on the ground. At this time, several people have come to inquire, but there are rich and powerful prices first, and they all dislike their high prices, so no deal has been negotiated, which can't help but make them depressed.
Seeing Xu Tianyu coming back, several people hurriedly stood up.
"How is Brother Xu?
Xu Tianyu nodded, "I have inquired clearly, they are a decoration company from the city, and their strength is much stronger than ours, I see that they have not been here for a few days, and they have taken a lot of work, but they haven't done it yet, if we work hard, we can still snatch the work from them." β
Ma Mian sighed, "How can you rob them, they are more professional than us, and the price is lower than ours, we can't rob them, or we will simply lower the price and earn the money first." β
"Even if the price is lowered, we may not be able to compete with them, people's subconscious always believe in strong people, how can we compete with their professional team?"
Hearing Xu Tianyu say this, several people were even more depressed, and even Brother Yu lost confidence, what else could they do?
"Are we just going back to Cuiping Mountain like this? But I'm not reconciled, I can't eat such a big cake here, and I still hope that I will earn money this time and go back to marry a daughter-in-law." Liu Ying's face was full of chagrin but helpless.
"You all cheer me up, did I say I want to go back?" Xu Tianyu said angrily.
"But what can we do if we don't go back, we can't compete with them. The more Xiao Pang spoke, the quieter his voice became, because he saw Xu Tianyu glaring at him with murderous eyes.
"I naturally have a way, since you believe in me so much, follow me out, I won't treat you badly, since you can't make money from moving, we just don't move. β
As he spoke, he picked up the sign from the ground that said "moving" and tore it in half. His actions frightened several people, and Liu Ying snatched the sign that had been cut in half, and said dejectedly.
"What can we do if we don't move? All we have is strength. β
Xu Tianyu saw that the atmosphere at the scene was a little depressed, and said helplessly, "That's it, let's not start work today, you go to the town to have a fun, you come with me, let's go to a place." β
Xu Dazhao, who had not spoken, hurriedly stepped forward, among these people, perhaps he trusted Xu Tianyu the most, and he believed that Brother Xu would definitely have a way to make them earn money.
"Brother Xu, where are we going?"
"You'll find out if you follow me. β
Xu Tianyu didn't talk nonsense, led Xu Dazhao and left, leaving the four brothers who were entangled, sitting on the ground and sighing.
After passing through most of the town, Xu Tianyu took Xu Dazhao to the wood processing factory, which is also the distribution center of wood and other raw materials in the town. Xu Dazhao was confused, I don't know what Xu Tianyu is bringing him here for now, they haven't even taken a job yet, is it too early to buy timber now.
Xu Tianyu didn't give him a chance to ask questions, he directly found a timber wholesaler and bought several pieces of the kind of cut finished planks, because they didn't have the tools here, so they could only buy such ready-made ones. Of course, the price is also a lot more expensive, but Xu Tianyu paid without even blinking an eye, and asked the timber wholesaler to send them to the second phase of the community.
On the way back to the community, Xu Dazhao finally couldn't help it, "Brother Xu, what are you buying this wood for? β
Xu Tianyu smiled faintly and answered his doubts, "Why didn't you live? Didn't we take over the box bed of Mine Chief Liu's house last time? We'll do this for her now." β
"But I've never done it before? I'm afraid I won't be able to do it. Xu Dazhao said weakly.
"It's okay, haven't you seen the drawings last time? I'm going to explain it to you, and I'll be watching from the sidelines, just show your craft. Xu Tianyu didn't give him a chance to refute, and said categorically.
