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.
Especially Lao Chen, he has been running this vegetable market for a long time, and the people who sell rice in the vegetable market have come and gone, but he has always been standing, even Li Wangliang on the other side, he deliberately stayed to prevent other rice merchants from entering the vegetable market, which is why he has the title of Chen Zhuge .
People are not as good as heaven, Zhang Wei's family entered the vegetable market with the help of Huang Suo, which made Lao Chen frown a little, and what annoyed him even more was that Zhang Wei's rice was five cents a pound cheaper, so he came to smash the field?
Lao Chen did not act rashly, but tried his best to spread the news to the ears of Li Wangliang, another rice seller.
Sure enough, Li Wangliang was furious when he heard the news, the reason is very simple, since Zhang Wei's family moved over, his business has lost a lot, probably because Zhang Wei's house is relatively close to his rice shop, so he has been far more affected than the old Chen family.
He has been thinking about how to find a reason to go to the door, but he didn't expect to hear that the price of Zhang Wei's family was lower than the two of them, which made Li Wangliang no longer hold back his anger, and whether it was the peak of business or not, he united with Lao Chen to challenge Zhang Wei's family, wanting Zhang Wei's family to "retreat from the difficulty".
Li Wangliang felt a little proud in his heart, he felt that Lao Chen was used by him this time, but he didn't know that he was actually used by Lao Chen.
……
"I said big brother, it's not good for you to do this!"
Sure enough, he came to the door, and hearing Li Wangliang's gloomy voice, Zhang Wei knew that the matter was not so easy to solve, but he was not ready to act for the time being, and wanted to see what these two people were going to say.
"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, but in an instant he strengthened his will and absolutely couldn't let people get involved in this cake.
"I don't know what this boss means?" Zhang Aiguo said.
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?"
Sure enough, Zhang Wei smiled slightly, as long as the price is easy to discuss, make money with harmony, don't have to make too much trouble with peers, if you really want to do something, Zhang Wei can clean them up in minutes, and the business model that is more than 20 years ahead is by no means comparable to them.
"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?"
Zhang Wei opened his mouth and said lightly: "What if you know, what if you don't know?" He was a little annoyed, his father was like this, and the other party was still yin and yang weird five times, which made him a little uncomfortable, and now he actually kicked his nose a little in the face.
"Xiaowei, let's listen to what the other boss has to say first. Zhang Aiguo said.
A group of people looked at Lao Chen, Lao Chen glanced at Zhang Wei in some surprise, and then cleared his throat: "What the Li brothers said is also reasonable, your prices are lower than ours, and our business is also difficult, but you are also newcomers, and it is normal to not know our rice price." Lao Chen pondered for a moment: "In my opinion, is it good for your family to raise the price?"
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 between Zhang Wei's family and Li Wangliang will be more intense, and Lao Chen's previous slight impact will be solved, maybe he can still reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Zhang Aiguo and his wife looked at their son, now the family's business is basically the son is making up his mind, and even sometimes they really doubt whether their son is the reincarnation of the stars in the sky, otherwise how can he be so smart?
Zhang Wei thought for a while, and then said: "Okay, I will ask my parents to raise the price." ”
After being polite for a while, Li Wangliang and Lao Chen left calmly.
The reason why Zhang Wei compromised is because the Bay Area is relatively densely populated, the vegetable market has a large flow of people, and the impact of rising prices will not be too great.
However, if the other two don't want to compete fairly, then don't blame Zhang Wei for being ruthless.
……
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 another plan.
This plan was still inspired by Lao Chen.
As soon as he came out of Zhang Wei's rice shop, Lao Chen seemed to point out slightly: "Fortunately, this family is more reasonable, otherwise I would be ready to fight a price war with them." ”
That's right, you can fight a price war, Li Wangliang's eyes lit up, his family was far more affected than the old Chen family, so I can't wait for Zhang Wei's family to get out of the vegetable market.
Li Wangliang didn't tell Lao Chen about this idea, and immediately lowered the price when he returned to the store, and learned from Zhang Weijia to write a sign and put it in front of the door, and sure enough, the business was a lot hotter all of a sudden.
As everyone knows, Lao Chen is staring at it all the time, and within a few minutes of Li Wangliang's price reduction, a similar sign also appeared at the door of his store.
The two families asked Zhang Wei's family to raise the price, and Zhang Wei's family agreed to increase the price, but they were good, and in turn lowered the price themselves!
……
It is now four or five o'clock in the afternoon, it is the peak period of the flow of people in the vegetable market, Zhang Wei's family is gearing up, just waiting to do business, and since the morning has sold 21,200 catties of rice, which is not counting the 500 catties of Xie Fatzi, 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, and a total of more than 3,200 catties of rice were sold in one day.
Zhang Wei was a little puzzled, could it be that today he rarely encountered a business panic that is rare in 100 days? But it is not right, why are the other two businesses so good? There must be some mystery in this!
"Maybe it's because people have a lot of old businesses. Zhang Aiguo said.
Maybe that's the case, Zhang Wei can only comfort himself like this, but he faintly feels in his mind that the other two have some strange tricks, but for a while he can't think of what is going on, because he didn't think to go to the door of the two stores to take a look, otherwise he will understand immediately!
