Chapter 142: Big Brother Dies, Part 2
Master Shen's rest gave Shen Shijin a good opportunity, and the business house became his one-man form, and Shen Shijin ignored the matter of introducing new goods to other merchants ordered by Master Shen, but according to the practice of previous years, he directly took out one or two pieces of everything and put it in the business bank, waiting for the merchants who came to take the initiative to place an order.
But from the beginning of April to the end of May, no one noticed this thing, let alone placed an order, Shen Shijin felt that the new thing was not distinctive enough, but he did not think about the problem in the business house itself.
Nowadays, there are fewer people in the commercial bank than in the past, and the most important thing is that in the past, there was Dingyue Restaurant to promote some things, but now there is no restaurant, the publicity is not in place, and the things are not known, so naturally no one comes to the door to place an order.
It was Chu Yiyao who noticed this thing, she was very interested in this special preparation of nectar and jam, although she wanted the Chu family to try it, but based on the fact that this was the source of goods that the uncle had worked hard to find, Chu Yiyao decided to help them promote it on the basis of making money on her own, Chu Yiyao placed an order with the Shen family firm in the name of Baifeng Restaurant in the Crescent River Bazaar, and became the first buyer of that batch of hoarded goods.
Several chefs in Baifeng Restaurant are very creative, and a few people know how to use these two things after research, but in ten days, Baifeng Restaurant has launched five new dishes prepared with this thing, and after getting a good response, Chu Yiyao immediately made a decision and bought back the remaining goods in the Shen family firm.
When Shen Shijin knew, the things had been sold for three or four days, and he was busy dealing with the calligraphy and paintings that he didn't have time to get rid of, and only after reading the account books given by the steward did he know that the things were actually bought by Baifeng Restaurant.
It was too late for Shen Shijin to stop it, and all the goods were pulled back by Chu Yiyao in a car, and now there was only a bottle left on the container in the Shen family's firm.
"In the future, all orders placed from there will not be accepted!" Shen Shijin didn't want to see anything that made them money.
"Young Master, this order makes money, but it doesn't distinguish between each other." The steward on the side cautiously reminded that personal grievances can't delay making money, these things will be broken after a long time, and they won't sell them if they are wasted.
"Do I still need to explain to you any reason?" Shen Shijin glanced at him, and the steward immediately stopped talking, in the days when the master was away, the eldest young master behaved like this, but he lost a lot of business, and if it continued like this, the business bank would not be able to make ends meet.
"Take out the ledger left by my father and show it to me." Shen Shijin asked the steward for the account book left by Master Shen, and the steward moved his mouth to say something, but finally took out the things that Master Shen had explained at that time and walked out of the house by himself.
The steward was still very puzzled, is it really good for the master to indulge the eldest young master so much
Shen Shijin did not live up to everyone's expectations at this time, and he was simply defeated, and by the beginning of September, the orders received by the Shen family firm were half less than those at the beginning of the year.
Today's Shen family business house is also powerful, compared with many business houses in Jinling, the Shen family can still rank in the top three, not that the Shen family's things are worse, nor that other people's things are better than them, but Shen Shijin's invincible attitude makes the merchants unconvinced.
It's not a monopoly, no matter how good things are, there are other choices, so the merchants go directly to other trading houses to place orders, but Shen Shijin is still arrogant and feels that they will regret it.
Old Man Shen and Master Shen didn't say anything, a few veteran stewards in the firm were distressed, at the beginning, Old Man Shen saw that they were doing their best for the Shen family, and gave them some small dividends, and everyone could earn money together, and they could also win people's hearts, but now Shen Shijin doesn't want this, and they don't take it, their pockets will be directly affected, so a few stewards pondered to go to the Shen family to talk to Old Man Shen about this.
Seeing that Old Man Shen said that he didn't care about the affairs in the firm, they went to Master Shen again, and Master Shen looked at the account book they handed over to him, but he was silent, and only after a long time did he look at them and say, "Everyone has worked hard all these years." ”
Several old stewards were confused by Master Shen's words, and after leaving the Shen family, they returned to the trading house, but they were greeted by Shen Shijin's gloomy face.
Shen Shijin sat there holding tea in one hand, looking at these stewards who were older than Master Shen, and the corners of his mouth raised a sneer, "If you are not satisfied with the stewards, just tell Shijin directly, why do you need to go to the Shen family in person, I don't know what answer my grandfather and my father gave you." ”
The old steward looked at each other for a moment, and one of them said, "Young Master, in the second half of this year, this order has suddenly decreased so much, should we discuss this reason, if it goes on like this, it will be detrimental to the business bank." ”
Shen Shijin glanced at them, "Then tell me what the reason is." ”
This time, a few people didn't speak, and there was no need to discuss it, isn't it just a matter of the attitude of the eldest young master.
Shen Shijin waited for a while and didn't see them answer, put down the teacup, and said with a little sincerity, "If you don't say it, how do I know where this problem is, you are in such a hurry to find your grandfather and my father, presumably this problem is not small." ”
Half a ring, the steward before said ruthlessly, "The eldest young master, everyone outside is saying that it is difficult to do business in our firm, how much is it because of the order and the eldest young master, and doing business is all about harmony, shouldn't we?"
"Should I go out and apologize to them?" Shen Shijin directly snatched the right to speak from the steward, and his face, which was still smiling, instantly turned cold, "Steward Chen, what do you mean, it's all because of me." ”
Speaking of this, there is nothing to avoid, this Chen steward simply said clearly, "Young Master, the old man and the old man were not like this to these merchants in the trading house, we want to do their business, but they have a lot of choices, without them, we are much less customers." ”
"Steward Chen is quite good at disciplining people, that's the management method of grandfather and father, it's different from mine, since they have so many choices, our posture is naturally higher, otherwise how to make others feel our things is the best."
Shen Shijin said that a few stewards naturally understand that this is the difference between a restaurant and a restaurant, the better the style, the higher the price, but the prerequisite for these is that people are willing to go, and now the attitude of the eldest young master, no matter how good the person is, he is not willing to come.
"Young Master, our posture is high, but this order is half less." Another steward reminded.
Shen Shijin looked at them coldly, "That's just now, after this voyage, we will be able to come up with something different from others, and when the time comes, it will be them who are stuttering to come and place an order, not what you say now, begging them to come." ”
Steward Chen sighed, this is a good thing, but it also has to have a solid foundation, the things that protect the capital are not done, how to continue to go up, "Young Master, there are fewer orders, there will be fewer guests, and no one will come to see it at that time, no matter how new and good it is, others don't know." ”
Shen Shijin didn't want to listen to it the most, these stewards had all said, he squinted at them slightly, and finally snorted, "You just don't obey me, that's right, you are the people who follow your grandfather, how can you be willing to listen to me, I see that you are also old, and it is time to go home to support the elderly, these things are still left to young people to do, if you bump into it, I can't stand you." ”
Steward Chen, they didn't expect the result of this exhortation to be like this, the eldest young master was not like this in the past.
"What you say, young master."
"I mean, you don't have to stay in the trading house, pack up and go home, now you have seen the situation in the trading house, I can't give you much compensation, fifty taels of silver per person, ask the accounting office to receive it and leave, as for the dividend, you didn't put the silver into it, and you don't have to return any silver to you!"
Steward Chen's face changed suddenly, and the steward who had not spoken on the side walked directly to the account room with a calm face, Steward Chen glanced at him, then looked at Shen Shijin, and wanted to say something, but the latter pointed to the person who walked over, "Steward Chen, you still don't follow?" ”
Three days before the merchant ship sailed, Shen Shijin changed the internal affairs of the merchant bank for one reason or another, including the four old stewards who left first, according to Shen Shijin's words, anyone who disobeyed him could leave directly.
When the merchant ship set sail, Shen Shijin handed over the merchant house to the two stewards of the letter, and set sail himself, to find those different things in his mouth.
And on Shen Shixuan's side, after receiving the letter from Steward Jiang, he went to invite all the stewards who Shen Shijin drove away, all the stewards who were driven away by Shen Shijin came back, and the teahouse and restaurant all need such experienced stewards, Shen Shijin was happy to catch up, and Shen Shixuan was also happy to invite here, the people who dug up his own house were wrong, but now Shen Shijin himself doesn't want them, what reason does he have not to accept them.
Chu Yiyao listened to Shen Shixuan talk about the Shen family's business, and was shocked again, she didn't understand, "Your eldest brother wasn't like this before, his grandfather attached so much importance to him in his previous life, if he was like this, how could his grandfather still hand over the Shen family to him." ”
"Maybe it's because of me." Shen Shixuan's life has changed so much, and the involvement between them is so big, Shen Shijin's life is naturally not smooth, "The eldest brother has always grown up so unhindered, everything has the help of grandfather and uncle, even in the previous life, after the Shen family handed it over to him, his grandfather also mentioned it from time to time, and he would not let the eldest brother go to extremes." ”
Grandfather's attention to him made the eldest brother feel threatened, and his performance again and again he was slightly better, which made the eldest brother's heart change a lot, "His mind is now in the wrong place, how can he do things well." ”
Chu Yiyao sighed, "Then he can't face the reality too much, how can it be your reason, after you left in your previous life, when your grandfather died, the Shen family would be defeated by him." ”
Le'er on the side began to be dissatisfied, and shouted loudly at Chu Yiyao, "Cool!" He stood with one hand on the small railing, and stared at them with his fist clenched in the other.
"Good daughter, don't you want to be daddy." Shen Shixuan picked up his daughter flatteringly, and just started to learn to speak, Le'er's speech was not very clear, but there was one word, what she said was extremely accurate, Le'er stood in Shen Shixuan's arms, and shouted to Shen Shixuan with her little finger on the plate on the table, "Eat!" ”
Chu Yiyao squeezed her fist, "I just ate milk, don't eat it again." ”
