The vegetable market where Zhang Wei's house is located is the leading vegetable market in the neighborhood, and the other two rice sellers invited the administrator to drink and give cigarettes, and finally got the façade.

A year's expensive store rent forced them to raise the price of rice, but business in the wet market has been very good, and the two families have lived in peace, and even occasionally borrowed rice from another family when they were short of rice.

Li Wangliang was very annoyed, originally the two rice shops could bear it with each other, but after Zhang Wei's family moved over, his storefront had a lot more impact than Lao Chen's, and his façade was diagonally opposite the façade of Zhang Wei's house.

Originally, I wanted to find a reason to find a way to go to the door, but I didn't expect the price of Zhang Wei's house to be lower than the price of the two companies, which made Li Wangliang surprised in his heart, and took advantage of the noon time to unite Lao Chen to challenge Zhang Wei's family, so that Zhang Wei's family could "retreat from the difficulty"!

Sure enough, he came to the door, and when he heard Li Wangliang's gloomy voice, Zhang Wei knew that the matter was not so easy to solve, but he couldn't interject now, so he could only see how his parents dealt with it.

"Ouch, two bosses, please take a seat. Zhang Aiguo is still relatively hospitable, even if Li Wangliang speaks in a weird manner, he still asked Cheng Lin to take a stool.

Li Wangliang and Lao Chen were a little embarrassed, especially Lao Chen, although his family's business had some impact, the impact was minimal.

"I don't know what this boss means?" Zhang Aiguo also had some numbers in his heart.

Li Wangliang couldn't help but see that Lao Chen didn't want to speak: "My family and Lao Chen's family are both 9 cents and 1 yuan a catty, and you are 5 cents a pound cheaper than us, what do you mean?"

Zhang Aiguo and Cheng Lin glanced at each other, when Zhang Wei put forward his opinion, they didn't care, but they didn't expect to be approached.

"This boss, our family is new to the city, and I really don't know your price. Zhang Aiguo explained.

"Heh!" Li Wangliang sneered: "Then you know now?"

"What do you mean?" Zhang Aiguo was a little annoyed, Li Wangliang's yin and yang weirdness made him very uncomfortable, and now he still has the meaning of kicking his nose in the face.

Zhang Wei hurriedly said: "Dad, don't be angry, listen to what the other boss has to say." ”

"Yes. Cheng Lin also dissuaded Zhang Aiguo: "Be patriotic, don't be impulsive." ”

A group of people looked at Lao Chen with blank eyes, Lao Chen couldn't speak anymore, and cleared his throat: "What the Li brothers said is also reasonable, your price is lower than ours, and it is difficult for us to do business." ”

"However, you are also new to the city, and I don't know that our rice price is normal. Lao Chen pondered for a moment: "In my opinion, is it good for your family to raise the price?"

The old fox, Li Wangliang and Zhang Wei had this idea in their hearts at the same time.

If the price of Zhang Wei's family rises, then the competition with Li Wangliang will be more intense, and the slight impact of Lao Chen before will be solved, and maybe he will be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Zhang Aiguo discussed a few words with Cheng Lin, and then said: "Okay, harmony makes money, I will raise the price." ”

After being polite for a while, Li Wangliang and Lao Chen left calmly.

Zhang Wei didn't say anything, the Bay Area is relatively densely populated, and the vegetable market has a large flow of people, so the impact of rising prices will not be too great. In this golden age, even if there is fair competition, everyone still has money to make.

But Li Wangliang didn't have the idea of fair competition at all, he just wanted to drive Zhang Wei's family away, so he couldn't make a plan and made another plan.

At four or five o'clock in the afternoon, the peak period of foot traffic in the vegetable market came, and Zhang Wei's family was gearing up and waiting to do business.

So far in the morning, 2,1200 catties of rice have been sold, which is not counting Xie Fatzi's 500 catties, so that the family is looking forward to a new high in sales during the peak period.

But the next situation disappointed the family, and the other two businesses were booming, and Zhang Wei's family seemed much more deserted.

It wasn't until the closing time that another five or six hundred catties of rice were sold, which made Zhang Wei's family wonder, is the peak of rice selling in this vegetable market in the morning?

"Maybe it's because people have a lot of old businesses. Zhang Aiguo comforted himself.

Zhang Wei didn't think so, he vaguely felt that the other two should have made some strange moves.

Sure enough, for the whole day of the second day, Zhang Wei's family only sold about 2,000 catties after counting Xie Fatzi's 500 catties, and on the third and fourth days, business continued to decline, and the lowest day counted Xie Fatzi's only 1,005 catties, which was not as good as the time to set up a stall.

It wasn't until Saturday night that Zhang Wei's family accidentally learned that the price of rice in the other two had dropped by half a cent compared with before!

Zhang Aiguo was very angry, Cheng Lin was also uncomfortable, Li Wangliang and Lao Chen came to the door to ask their family to raise the price, but when they turned around, they lowered the price, people, how can they be shameless to such a point?

Although Zhang Wei is not ashamed of the actions of the Li and Chen families, he also understands that people die for money and birds die for food, but the means are a little despicable.

Zhang Aiguo was so angry that he wanted to find a theory, but was stopped by Cheng Lin and Zhang Wei.

"Dad, it's useless to look for them. Zhang Wei advised: "They can reduce the price, and we can also do promotions." ”

Zhang Aiguo and Cheng Lin's eyes lit up, Zhang Aiguo patted his thigh and said, "Yes, we can also reduce the price." ”

"Nope. Zhang Wei has a way in his heart, he knows that it is difficult to raise the price after the price is reduced: "We don't need to reduce the price, we just engage in promotion." ”

Zhang Aiguo and Cheng Lin didn't understand the methods of later generations, and asked Zhang Wei what promotion was.

Zhang Wei sorted out his thoughts and said: "We can hold a new store opening celebration event, everything in our house during the activity period to buy 50 catties of rice will give 5 catties of rice, buy 100 catties and get 12 catties, buy more and give more." ”

"Won't we lose money in this way?" Cheng Lin kept money as always.

"No, it won't. Zhang Wei explained bitterly: "Our family can now earn two cents for a pound of rice, ten yuan for fifty pounds, and the cost price of five pounds of rice is only three yuan and five, and we can earn six yuan and a half." ”

Li Wangliang They are cheaper than five cents a catty, and fifty catties are only two yuan and a half cheaper, but the price of Zhang Wei's rice is 9 cents a catty, and if you send five catties, it will be four yuan and five.

"Good way, my son is so smart. Zhang Aiguo smiled when he heard this: "We will sell it like this tomorrow." ”

"I'm going to my uncle's house for dinner tomorrow. Cheng Lin reminded.

"There's no rush. Zhang Wei continued: "Make a beautiful billboard tomorrow, and give them a bad fight the day after tomorrow." ”

"Why waste money to make billboards, I just find a cardboard paper to write it myself. Hearing that it would cost money, Zhang Aiguo immediately shook his head and refused.

Zhang Wei smiled bitterly in his heart, most of the people's concepts now are still diligent and thrifty, and they can generally save money.

"Dad, you can't be wrong about listening to me. Zhang Wei tried his best to persuade Zhang Aiguo: "Not only do we have to make billboards, but we also have to remake packaging bags." ”

Zhang Aiguo resolutely refused, he thought it was useless, it was completely indiscriminate spending.

Cheng Lin was also a little wavering, she knew that her son was very smart, but when she heard that it would cost money, she was reluctant.

"Dad. Zhang Wei followed the temptation: "You also know that our rice is similar to theirs, so why should we have half a cent more expensive for the same rice? ”

Zhang Aiguo and Cheng Lin also felt reasonable after listening to Zhang Wei's painstaking explanation, so they reluctantly agreed to make a small amount of packaging bags first.

The next day, the store of Zhang Wei's house was closed at nine o'clock, and because of Sunday, it was finally sold.

At noon, the family had dinner at Yang Zhifeng's house.

"Xiao Zhang, how is your business?" Yang Zhifeng sandwiched a chicken leg for Zhang Wei, and asked Zhang Aiguo casually: "Don't do anything that violates the law and discipline, but don't be afraid of anyone who bullies you, I will support you." ”

Yang Zhifeng's words can be said to be this is already rare.

"Business isn't very good. Zhang Aiguo shook his head, although he decided to use Zhang Wei's method, he had not practiced it yet, and he had no bottom in his heart.

"Didn't you find a store in the vegetable market?" Yang Zhifeng was a little puzzled: "There are quite a lot of people in the vegetable market." ”

Zhang Aiguo and Cheng Lin told Yang Zhifeng about what had happened these days, and Zhang Wei didn't speak, concentrating on dealing with the meat on the table.

Although the family has made some money in business now, it is not enough to eat meat every day, and it is usually rare to eat meat once every two or three days.

Zhang Wei didn't want to be a hemp stalk in the future life, and he never got tired of eating meat, so he ate it with relish.

"How can it be justified? After listening to this, Yang Zhifeng felt that the Li and Chen families were too treacherous, women were businessmen, women were businessmen, and no women were businessmen.

Zhang Aiguo and Cheng Lin were afraid that Yang Zhifeng would be angry, so they hurriedly explained Zhang Wei's method in detail, so that Zhang Wei, who was eating on the side, rolled his eyes when he heard it.

Please, I'm only five years old, okay? Zhang Wei wailed in his heart, it's too wicked for a five-year-old person to have such an idea!

Cheng Lin didn't realize that, on the contrary, when she talked about her son's cleverness, her eyebrows fluttered.

Yang Zhifeng looked at Zhang Wei with some surprise, the promotion method is too perfect, is this really the five-year-old doll in front of him come up with it?

"The child is so smart, or let him go to school early. Yang Zhifeng brought up the old things again, in his thoughts, it was still relatively feudal, everything was inferior, only reading was high.

Zhang Aiguo and Cheng Lin hesitated for a while, but finally nodded and agreed.

"Grandpa, I don't want to go. Zhang Wei looked at Yang Zhifeng pitifully.

"That's not good, great people have said to study hard and make progress every day. Yang Zhifeng took this matter seriously: "If you are five years old, you can start from a small class. ”

There is only one grade in the kindergarten in Zhang Wei's hometown, but the magic capital has already been divided into large and small classes.

At the thought of having to play a childish game with a group of little kids, Zhang Wei suddenly felt that there was darkness in front of him, and he did his own thing!

Li Wangliang has been so unhappy these days, after leaving Zhang Wei's house that day, he had a poisonous plan and asked Lao Chen if he wanted to drive Zhang Wei's family away, so he explained the way to reduce the price.

"Phew, Lao Chen, this old fox, told me that it's not good, and if you don't go back, you will immediately reduce the price!" Li Wangliang thought viciously in his heart: "But the family on the other side shouldn't be able to hold on, it closed so early today, Jiang is still old and spicy." ”

Thinking that the poison plan was effective, Li Wangliang showed a smug smile, in his opinion, Zhang Wei's family was not far from getting out of this vegetable market.

For a while, he had a feeling that his IQ was superior, and his life was as lonely as snow.
