205 The popularity of Furniture City
The first snow came early.
In fact, there are not many years when it snows in Matsudaira, and even if it does, there will be no snowflakes floating on the ground like in the north.
At most, a few snowflakes cover the roof on a cloudy day.
If you stay all night, you might still see some white when you wake up the next morning.
But more often than not.
All you can see is the ice ridge hanging upside down on the eaves.
As for snow-white scenes, they are unattainable, at least not too common.
It may be the reason for the approaching end of the year.
The wedding and housewarming events are more intensive, and the Shahe Furniture City located in the old West Gate has become more and more prosperous.
Almost every morning, the tractors or rickshaws waiting to pull furniture outside the warehouse are all piled together, from the towns below and residents from the county.
Old and young gathered together, chattering and joking, as a city person, it was inevitable that there was a trace of superiority between the words, and the mouth said, "You guys watch first, I'll go back and have a cup of tea and come back." ”
I'm afraid that others don't know that his family lives in the city, so it's hard to see that there is no place to drink tea on the side, if I'm not mistaken, there is a tea shop with hot water supply outside the furniture city.
Of course.
The old man from the country is not good-tempered either.
Bai glanced at it and was too lazy to take care of it, and his mouth was talking about the furniture he bought in the city this time.
There are a lot of mahjong tables in the wardrobe, and what is missing is the new daughter-in-law and new son-in-law.
It's been a close year.
Inside and outside the city, there was a sense of pre-holiday restlessness.
For traditional Chinese people, the Spring Festival means too many things, and it also embodies all the expectations and motivation to move forward.
Li Wenxiu is not very clear about the specific sales of Furniture City.
But from the opening of New Year's Day to more than 10,000 in January, he has seen the account book, and the sales of the store are close to more than one million on the books.
In this way, there are nearly 30,000 discrepancies per day on average.
In 99, this data is still considerable, after all, whether it is purchasing power or market recognition, it is actually relatively low at this time.
It's not as turbulent as the one that comes from behind.
If ten years have passed, the furniture city with more than 30,000 sales a day will almost not be far from bankruptcy.
But no matter what.
This is basically the same as what Li Wenxiu expected.
But the hassle that comes with it is also big and tricky.
Since the opening of Furniture City.
Other small furniture stores in the county, especially the homegrown workshop-style ones, have almost always been hit hardest, with several closing their doors by the end of the year.
Li Wenxiu can't say whether this kind of behavior of stealing people's jobs can be regarded as good or bad.
This is certainly not a good thing for small business owners who have been squeezed out of their living space, but in terms of the long-term benefits of a market economy.
Whether it's a merger or bankruptcy, these are all inevitable plots.
What I did was only exacerbating the process.
So there is no distinction between good and bad, it is nothing more than that there will be some moral condemnation.
But what is the effect of this condemnation, Li Wenxiu, as a party concerned, cannot express any opinion.
However, in order to break this situation and eliminate some undesirable effects, he quickly took new measures.
One is through the Shahe Furniture Factory, which provides supply contracts to small workshops to specialize in the production of furniture factory parts, and some small lumber mills to provide initial wood processing services.
The other is to recruit some craftsmen with carpentry skills to work in the furniture factory.
The results of these two measures are still very fast.
But new problems are beginning to emerge.
With the supply contract provided by the Shahe Furniture Factory, more than a dozen careful furniture production workshops appeared in the county overnight, and this simple imitation method, if put in ten years, is actually not a problem at all.
But at this time, it is a big headache.
In order to eliminate the adverse effects as soon as possible, Li Wenxiu had no choice but to warn these production workshops through legal means, after all, infringement must be curbed at the initial stage.
Morning.
Li Wenxiu pushed his bicycle out of the door without having breakfast at home, and his body was wrapped like zongzi, and the white air coming out of his mouth made people clearly feel the temperature outside.
Liu Jinlan scolded with a smile in her mouth.
"I don't eat the porridge at home, I have to eat soy milk fritters, and the things outside are not clean. ”
"Mom, soy milk fritters are delicious, but porridge is not delicious. ”
is still the second girl who is considerate and tells the truth.
Li Wenxiu didn't dare to say this.
On weekdays, the food is not delicious, and he has to endure it.
If it had been two years earlier, he would have been unable to help but complain.
But now Liu Jinlan's temper is better.
He couldn't speak.
Two new breakfast shops have opened in Laoximen, with three fritters for one dollar and five cents for a cup of soy milk.
One of them is the location of the same tea shop last year.
The proprietress of the tea shop really sold the house.
As for whether it was sold for a high price of 100,000 yuan, Li Wenxiu is not clear, but Lao Ximen's house will definitely not drop in price in a few years.
The tea boss has bought the house now, and he will definitely cry and regret it in a few years.
"Hostess, have a cup of soy milk and add 3 fritters. ”
Since the holiday.
Li Wenxiu came over almost every day.
The hostess is also familiar.
Serve the soy milk fritters with a twist.
The fritters are fried in boiling rapeseed oil until they are golden brown, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and when you bite into the mouth, in addition to leaching out the oil, there is also a strong texture of wheat flour, which really leaves an aftertaste in your mouth.
If you take another sip of freshly squeezed soy milk, it will be even more unbearable.
The plan of the day begins in the morning.
A good day starts with breakfast.
Had breakfast.
Li Wenxiu walked into the furniture city and walked around.
The current person in charge of Songping Furniture City is Nian Gao, that is, the kid of Nian Guangfei's family.
With the previous experience of Jin He, Li Wenxiu also knew the importance of talents, so he asked Han Lisheng to adopt a rotation system of store managers from the beginning.
At present, the two furniture cities will have a new store manager every two months, which is also preparing for the expansion of the furniture city in the future.
Han Lisheng is the general person in charge of selecting the reserve candidate for the store manager.
Li Wenxiu didn't want to interfere with his judgment in this regard, but he still needed to see the specific store manager candidate.
"How is it, Brother Nian, it's not a big deal, right?"
It's not that old, but it's not that old.
It should be the age when you have just graduated from college.
This guy can't get along with him, the two of them always have to do something together, and they are really not interested in furniture production, so Nian Guangfei had to beg Li Wenxiu to arrange a place for him.
Li Wenxiu is also familiar with him, and knows that in terms of ability, he is still old, but after all, he is young, so he didn't put him in a too conspicuous position all of a sudden.
Instead, let him be a store manager for a period of time to practice his courage.
"It's good, it's just busy, you look outside the door, it's all waiting for shipments, you Matsudaira people are really this. ”
secretly gave Li Wenxiu a thumbs up.
Nian Gao is really convinced.
Don't look at the furniture factory in Shahe, but after all, there is still a gap with a county.
Originally, when Han Lisheng asked him to come to Songping to be the store manager, this guy was a little reluctant, but it turned out to be good, and he didn't want to leave when he came.
Who doesn't want to stuff a lot of money into the drawer every day, although the money is not their own, but it is performance, and good performance will naturally have good harvests.
"It's also the end of the year, business is better, and after the Spring Festival, it's difficult to be prosperous again. ”
Li Wenxiu's idea is still quite pertinent.
Furniture is not a daily consumable, and people who buy it naturally have it, but they also have to pick a time.
There are many things to do in marriage, and this is indispensable, as well as the need to buy a new house or add new furniture.
It will definitely not be like daily necessities without a shortage of business every day, and after the New Year, there will be no business for a few days in a row.
After all, the place is still too small.
If it is a place like Shanghai, the daily traffic of a furniture city will definitely not be too bad.
"That's true, but a few times a year is enough. ”
Nian Gao thought about it and felt that it was such a reason.
