Chapter 34 Reason

On the way back, Beaty was a little puzzled, if it was a clothing store, it would be easy to find the reason why the business was so bleak. But the pawnshop is a little strange, the shop is very enthusiastic, and the technology is there, so why is the original business so good, but now it is not good?

At this time, it was already a little late, Luo Rao pulled Bi Zhi and walked back quickly, she didn't think deeply, and just stepped into the general's mansion with doubts. Unexpectedly, she saw the arrogant Luo Jiao. Seeing such a scene, even Bi Zhi was shocked, the fourth lady has really been very favored by the master recently.

Luo Jiao was dressed in goose yellow and pink, and the jewelry hairpins were all changed to a new style, with a proud look and a proud look, "Third sister, I want to go to my sister for a cup of tea, and my father will reward me with this year's Junshan Silver Needle." That's a new tea, the taste is good, you also know that the tea is called gold inlaid jade, the total annual output is only 100 catties, very rare. Sister, I'm afraid I don't know what it smells like. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Jiao took the handkerchief, bent down slightly, and covered her mouth with a smile.

"No, thank you third sister, as long as my sister lives up to the tea she drinks. It is said that tea can make people's minds clear, my sister drank so much tea, I don't know if she ever figured out what she wanted? ”

Luo Jiao rolled her eyes, snorted, grinned at the corners of her mouth, and then took two steps forward, close to Luo Rao's neck, and whispered into her ear: "It's really unfortunate, what I want is what my sister has, what are you going to do, third sister?" ”

"Fourth sister, it's better for you to think about it before doing things, you must know that if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself." Luo Rao said lightly, as if this sentence was just an evaluation and had nothing to do with herself.

Luo Jiao's face changed suddenly, and the coquettish smile just now was completely gone, "Luo Rao, do you know that I can't see you like this the most, obviously I have so much, but I don't seem to care about anything." But that's okay, just watch, I'll get it back little by little. She glared at Luo Rao angrily, and left her side after saying these few words.

"Fourth Miss, she ......" Bi Zhi was surprised by Luo Jiao's changes, but she didn't expect that in just a few days, the sisters who could still face each other with a smile have now torn their faces, because the opponent is Luo Jiao who is unscrupulous, if it is against the third miss, won't her own miss often have to suffer, she is more worried about her own miss.

Luo Rao looked at Bi Zhi, and naturally knew that she was worried about herself, so she comforted her, "Don't think about it, we have to be wary that she can't do anything, not to mention that if I want to make her suffer, the prescription given by the master can at least make her suffer more than a hundred ways, but I don't think it's enough, it's not enough......"

Luo Rao muttered in a low voice: "She deceived and betrayed, ruthlessly killed her sister, the Luo family raised her, but she left the Luo family at the critical moment, how can I let her live so easily?" Because of her low voice, Bi Zhi never heard what was said, otherwise there would have been many doubts. She saw that her young lady's lips moved slightly, opening and closing up and down, so she had to ask out loud, "Miss, is there anything you want the slave to do?" ”

Shaking her head, Luo Rao returned to the Begonia Courtyard and flipped through the account books, not to mention the ready-to-wear shop, she wanted to find the reason why Jin Yudang was not profitable and customers were scarce, and repeatedly annoyed the account book, and after careful inspection, she found that the monthly decrease in silver money began in the winter month a year ago.

Since that month, the income has to be reduced by a few hundred taels of silver every month, and now it is already very little, and it is about to be unsustainable, but why, why did the income start to decrease from that time?

If the pawnbroker is not good enough, it should have been a problem very early. When she was in the shop, she also asked, everything in this shop has never changed according to its original appearance, and the shop is full of old people, and they still have feelings for Jin Yudang, and they don't want Jin Yudang to be so depressed.

Jin Yudang's buddies said that they have also made some changes, sometimes they will hold an event, give a discount when selling pawns, and add some silver to them when someone comes to pawn things, but they still can't save Jin Yudang's situation, they are very worried, and in the end, they are powerless to change this status quo.

So when Luo Rao walked into the pawnshop at that time, the guys would sleep on the table, but would this atmosphere be the reason why Jin Yu's business was not good? But this will never be the main reason, so what is the real reason?

This time I went to Jin Yudang, Luo Rao didn't identify herself, she just wanted to see how they dealt with customers, and found that there was no problem, except that the guy didn't see the customer for a long time at the beginning, but he was also excited when the guest appeared.

"Sang Lan, you find a trustworthy person to inquire about what happened to Jin Yudang in the winter moon last year? I want to know why Jin Yudang's business has become so bad in the past two years. ”

"Okay, slave and maid, let's go. If Mama Yang is here, she will definitely be able to help the young lady a lot, and the slave doesn't understand anything, so I will send someone to see if Mama's business is done, and I will quickly pick her up. ”

"Well, you can do it."

Luo Rao sat in front of the window, also puzzled, it stands to reason that this kind of business in pawnshops will not be like tea and grain shops, where the price is cheap when there are more things, and the price rises when there are fewer things. Not to mention the relatively high value of the pawnshop's things, but all the good things pawned can be regarded as unique, so even if the annual income is not much, it will never be so bleak.

Maybe someone was maliciously competing, or maybe it was something else, but Luo Rao still couldn't find the reason, so she decided to put the matter aside for the time being, and wait for the people sent by Sang Lan to find some clues.

She opened the account book of the ready-to-wear shop again, and found that she had a headache even more, and she thought it was better to close the door of such a shop. A good shop, no embroidery girl can only sell old clothes, how long can it last, the guests go in and see that they are all gray, who will buy such clothes, the guy in this shop is completely sitting and messing around.

Luo Rao reasoned out her thoughts, this ready-to-wear shop, first of all, the name of the store is not attractive, because this shop cannot be regarded as a time-honored brand, as long as people say that people know that the clothes made by a certain shop are better. What does it take to attract people when a shop that is not famous, of course, it depends on the name of the store, so that people want to buy it when they see the name.

Secondly, if she could, she planned to replace the shopkeeper and the guys, one by one customers walked in, no one wanted to see a cold face, to see a face that seemed to be owed him a few hundred taels of silver, the so-called harmony and wealth, it is exactly like this.

Luo Rao thought about the shopkeeper and the guy in this store one by one, and let them come up with a way to just have a buffer time, even if they found the embroidery girl, she had to see if the person they found was available, and it was better to find the embroidery girl by herself It was more reassuring.

She carefully flipped through the account book in her hand again, and her eyes narrowed, is this account man available?
