Chapter 102: Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy
You Xiaoya's strength is in many cases, in addition to overwhelming the other party with her aura at the first time, the most important thing is that every word she says is so calm and reasonable, almost every second makes the other party lose the courage to continue to work against her.
So at this time, the shopkeeper Lai decisively had nothing to say, or he had something to say, but after his words came to his mouth, he thought of the results of the previous contact and communication with You Xiaoya through his own brain, so he swallowed these words back alive.
"Okay, Shopkeeper Lai doesn't have to worry about this, Mrs. Ben naturally does things in a measured manner, and this dress is to avoid some unnecessary trouble, as long as Shopkeeper Lai doesn't say it, how many others will know?"
You Xiaoya said this on the one hand to reassure the shopkeeper Lai, and on the other hand, she asked him to hide her disguise as a man.
Or in other words, You Xiaoya now feels that she is pretending to be a man, except for the shopkeeper Lai, others don't know, so if anyone knows in the future, most of them will be said by the shopkeeper Lai.
Therefore, if someone is looking for trouble with her You Xiaoya, then she will come to trouble the shopkeeper. Although she didn't say this, and she didn't mention the meaning of her words, but Shopkeeper Lai couldn't help but think about it like this, for this reason, he couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp just thinking about this.
"What the husband and wife said is very ......" Shopkeeper Lai hadn't reacted in his mind, but he had already made a decision for himself subconsciously.
You Xiaoya leaned back on the chair slightly, looking at Lai Yun with a calm face. In his hand, he opened and closed the fan carelessly, and after repeating it twice, he snapped the fan and closed it and said to Lai Yun:
"Thanks to the shopkeeper's words, Mrs. Ben is relieved." After a pause, he continued: "By the way, when Mrs. Fang Caiben came to your shop, she had already taken a general stroll around Zhongli County, and there were four cloth houses and three ready-to-wear stores in a few streets, I don't know what Shopkeeper Lai knows about these shops?" ”
You Xiaoya's topic changed too quickly, and Lai Yun hadn't come out of the sense of oppression You Xiaoya had just created. I was stunned for a while before I reacted, and hurriedly said:
"In addition to us, there are three other cloth houses. There are two of the Qi family's industries, the other is the Jiang Yuanwai shop in the county, and one of the three garment shops is the Qi family. Words of the other two. It's all ...... from out of town."
Shopkeeper Lai didn't know what You Xiaoya wanted to know, so he simply told the basic situation of those shops.
"The four cloth houses I mentioned do not include the Jin family." You Xiaoya's voice was gentle, and she raised her eyes to look at Lai Yun, her eyes were calm and she couldn't see why.
"Huh?" Lai Yun said that he didn't understand You Xiaoya's words very much.
"Don't you even know how many of your competitors are?" You Xiaoya's words didn't mean to blame, but there was a little frightening in Lai Yun's ears.
"This, this ......" Lai Yun's heart is not declining, saying that there is a fifth shop here? So what's going on with this fifth shop?
"Northeast to Chen Ji Buzhuang." You Xiaoya saw that Lai Yun was really a little dazed, and she didn't embarrass him.
"Chen Ji Buzhuang?" Lai Yun was decisively stunned. When did this start? Chen Ji's words, will it be opened by Chen Boqi's old horseman?
"Judging by the situation of the shop, it should be a few days before it opens. Haven't you heard of this shopkeeper? You Xiaoya's words were just a smooth nonsense, and they didn't have much connotation, but in Lai Yun's ears, they instantly made him blush.
"......" Lai Yun said, what is the matter with this strange low atmospheric pressure?
You Xiaoya looked at Lai Yun, the weather is a little hot, but Lai's shopkeeper's sweaty posture is a little too fierce, right? Anyway, is she really that scary? Does he want to be scared like this?
"Shopkeeper Lai, you don't have to be so nervous, Mrs. Ben doesn't mean to blame you, I just want to know more about the shop when I come here today, of course, this business is a science, and there will be competition if there is money to be made, Mrs. Ben just did a peer survey, and now I want to hear the opinion of Shopkeeper Lai."
You Xiaoya saw that Lai Yun had been cramped and nervous, so she waited for a while before slowing down her tone, trying her best to make her words sound a little relatable.
Listening to You Xiaoya's words, Lai Yun was stunned, and suddenly found that Fang Cai's stiff low air pressure seemed to have eased a lot in an instant when he looked up at You Xiaoya's calm eyes. Suddenly it occurred to him that he couldn't have been scared out of the problem by his wife two days ago, right?
"Yes, I'm too nervous." Lai Yun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled bitterly and waved at You Xiaoya.
It seems that he is really frightened by a little woman and becomes less and less courageous, but what is he afraid of? Although this little woman turned her face like turning a book, wasn't it because she had underestimated her at that time and did things that offended her several times?
"Now let's get down to business." After Lai Yun said that, You Xiaoya looked at him for a while, and saw that he had almost calmed down before continuing to bring the topic back.
"Yes"
“……”
Next, Lai Yun made a report and his own analysis of the shops with the same attributes in Zhongli County that he knew, and You Xiaoya listened to him one by one about his views on these shops and some of the competition methods in the past.
From Lai's shopkeeper's words, You Xiaoya came to a conclusion, that is, the ancient people did business, and the sense of competition didn't seem to be very strong.
For example, in the product area, as long as there is a better material, then a succession of other shops will also be on it, and the price will be lower than the previous one, even if it is a little lower.
In this way, they will infinitely lower their own costs and prices, and then lower and lower until finally this material becomes the most unmarketable.
In You Xiaoya's eyes, this is simply the most unacceptable situation for her, if it was in her previous life, she would definitely give a sentence mercilessly: her brain was hit by a pig!
But this is ancient times, ancient people are so simple, You Xiaoya said, although speechless, she still has to accept such a fact. But acceptance is acceptance, and she doesn't intend to follow this rhythm. (To be continued......)
