After answering the fifth question, Wang Suxiu felt that she was very satisfied with this question, and then a smile appeared on her face and looked at the sixth question:

The Zhang family, the Wang family, and the Li family in Shu all sell medicines in the market, and the Zhang family selects good medicines and sells them, which are included in the out, not false prices, no bargaining, and no high profits.

The Wang family mixes good medicine with bad quality medicine, and sets the price according to the buyer's wishes.

The Li family picks inferior drugs and sells them at low prices, and the buyers want to be greedy for more money, and they also give them away with a smile, so the buyers are numerous, and the buyers are like a market every day, and the buyers come one after another, and before the age is over, the Li family will be rich.

Although the number of customers of the Wang family is not as large as that of the Li family, it has accumulated over time, and it has been rich for more than two years.

The Zhang family, which only sells good medicines, has always been full of birds, no one buys it, its solar eclipse is not hungry, and the food is insufficient, but it still adheres to the concept and does not change its original intention.

Please comment on the business philosophy and business results of the three pharmaceutical companies, if you are the Zhang family, how will you deal with this situation?

After Wang Suxiu saw this question, he immediately felt the same way, his own family has always done his duty and operated in good faith, but he has always been inferior to those opportunistic and flattering people, so he vigorously criticized the phenomenon of shopping malls that take fraudsters as virtuous and loyal and honest as stupid.

Xue Baochai, who is not far from Wang Suxiu, has been contemplating for half an hour since entering the examination room, and then has been working hard to write.

Yesterday, she got the first six questions revealed by Lu Jing, and got Lu Jing's prompt, so she had already made the answers to the first six questions, just to avoid suspicion, and to think before answering.

At the same time, she was extremely grateful to Lu Jing for giving the question, and often unconsciously recalled the scene when she met Lu Jing that day, in order not to cause trouble for Lu Jing, she had been buried deep in her heart and never told anyone.

After answering the first six questions, Xue Baochai unconsciously appeared in his mind again, stunned for a while, his face turned red, he hurriedly collected his thoughts, temporarily put aside the love of his children, and looked at the seventh question: "How to sell the comb to the monk of Renji Temple, the more ways the better?" ”

Suddenly seeing such a strange topic, Xue Baochai had no clue for a while, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, the monk had no hair, where could he use a comb.

After thinking for a long time, I thought that tourists came in the dust, their hair was messy, and they were disrespectful to the Buddha, or they could sell their combs to monks on this ground, but they were still not satisfied with the answer.

I began to think about the intention of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to come up with this question, but I couldn't guess the intention of the questioner for a while, and it was difficult to think of a better way, so I looked at the eighth question:

"There is an island nation called Inanda overseas, and the inhabitants of the island have been barefoot for generations, and they asked: Can you sell shoes to the people of this island, and if not, please explain the reason, and if so, how can you sell them?"

Seeing this, Xue Baochai suddenly frowned, it was another strange question, and he guessed in his heart that this island country was probably made up by Lu Jing again.

After thinking about it for a long time, I thought of the phrase 'if you want to take it first, you must give it first', so I answered with this.

After some discussion, a specific plan is given: make the shoes beautiful, and then give them to the women and children on the island, and when the women and children on the island like the shoes, they will gradually reach the men, and then sell the shoes after half of the people on the island start to wear shoes.

After neatly writing the answer, he looked at the ninth question: "The two cloth merchants Zhang and Li in Yangzhou, Jiangnan, are competing for the local cloth market. ”

"Q: If you were at the helm of the Zhang family, how would you deal with this?"

"Q: In response to the response plan you wrote, stand in the position of the Li family and write a response strategy?"

After Xue Baochai saw it, he knew in his heart that this question examines the wisdom of business layout, and both sides need to fight wits and courage, and he has no experience in this area, so he can only rely on his father's teaching when he was a child, as well as his own imagination to answer.

When everyone answered the questions, Lu Jing was not idle, after a round of inspection, he saw that the exam had entered the right track, the businessman was answering the questions, and the invigilator and inspection performed their duties, so they began to sort out the scoring criteria of the test papers, and after the test papers were collected, they needed to explain to the marking officer.

When Lu Jing was busy, Changchun Tower ushered in an unexpected visitor, Dai Quan, who was next to the emperor.

The two greeted each other, Dai Quan passed the message, and the Emperor summoned them.

While Lu Jing went to see the Emperor Taishang with Dai Quan, he secretly wondered about the Emperor's intention of coming here, whether he wanted to ensure that a few people were promoted.

When he arrived at the Huangzhuang Palace, Lu Jing hurriedly bowed and said, "Minister Lu Jing meets the emperor!" ”

"Excuse me!" Emperor Taishang said with a smile, he has been in Taiji Palace for a long time, and it is rare to think quietly, and he heard that the imperial business selection is held today a few days earlier, so he came here to have some fun.

It's just that after turning around, I felt very bored, so I asked for a test paper, wanting to see how the questions of the imperial business examination and the imperial examination differed.

After a cursory glance, I found that the questions on it were strange, and they were very different from the questions of the imperial examination, and I immediately felt very interesting.

Some of the questions are simple but have deep meanings, and some of them seem simple, but they imply traps, and even a few questions cannot be answered by themselves, so they ask who came up with the questions.

Huang Yongzhong, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who had been accompanying the emperor, did not dare to conceal it, nor did he dare to be greedy for merit, so he hurriedly said frankly that all the topics in the report were made by Lu Jing, and this selection of imperial businessmen was also led by Lu Jing, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Department of General Administration were more auxiliary.

When the emperor heard this, he immediately became interested, and last year when the emperor insisted on sending Lu Jing to Zhejiang to lead the affairs of the Hangzhou Weaving Bureau, he wanted to meet Lu Jing, but later forgot about it.

Now that he heard Lu Jing's name again, he remembered the past, and couldn't suppress his curiosity, so he asked Dai Quan to summon Lu Jing over.

At this time, seeing Lu Jing suddenly seeing himself, although he was surprised, he was not flustered, and secretly praised in his heart, he did have some ability, so he asked: "I heard that you are responsible for this imperial business selection?" ”

Lu Jing hurriedly shook his head and said: "Weichen just made some suggestions, and the specific things are all handled by the adults of the Internal Affairs Office and the General Administration Department. ”

"Especially Lord Huang is even more hard-working, he has been paying silently, but he has never taken credit, and Weichen has been learning from Lord Huang these days!"

Huang Yongzhong, who was standing on the side, heard Lu Jing say this, and secretly praised Lu Jing for being able to speak, and his attitude towards Lu Jing also changed.

The selection of imperial merchants was originally just a family affair of the Internal Affairs Office, but the emperor handed it over to Lu Jing to do, which made him have always had a pimple in his heart, although because of the emperor's order, he has been cooperating with Lu Jing, but his attitude towards Lu Jing is very distant, but now he has a little closeness, he is busy and modest, and in front of the emperor, he praised Lu Jing a few words.

The Emperor Taishang nodded slightly, appreciating Lu Jing's attitude of not taking credit, young people can have this bearing, no matter what they do, they will achieve something, and then picked up the test paper in his hand and asked, "I heard that these questions are from you?" ”

"Wechen just made some trivial suggestions, and the general direction was agreed upon by Lord Huang of the Internal Affairs Department and Lord Yan of the General Administration Department!" Lu Jing hurriedly replied when he heard this, and secretly complained in his heart, did the Emperor Taishang come to dig a pit for himself.

Although these are facts, he is just planning, and he can't put all the credit on his head, in case Huang Yongzhong is small-minded, wouldn't he hate himself.

The Emperor Taishang understood Lu Jing's thoughts, smiled, and continued to ask, "Do you know the topic above?" ”

Lu Jing nodded and said, "Clear!" ”

"That's just right!" The Emperor Taishang smiled and said, "It's okay, you can explain it to me!" ”

"Wechen obeys!" Lu Jing saluted, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the emperor should come here for a reason, and there is no special purpose.

Emperor Taishang glanced at Lu Jing lightly, pointed to the first question, and said: "Let's start from the beginning, I just read it once, and I feel a little dizzy, can you tell me how to solve this problem?" ”

Lu Jing explained: "The first question is indeed a bit confusing, but as long as the neighboring shops are eliminated, it is simple, and the neighboring shops pay one or two and get one or two, and there is no loss, so it can be ignored." ”

"The customer got 1,850 yuan and a pair of shoes worth 150 yuan, a total of one tael of silver, and this tael of silver is what the shoe store lost."

The Emperor Taishang thought for a moment and questioned: "As you said, the purchase price of those shoes is 100 yuan, and the shoe store should lose 1,950 yuan?" ”

Lu Jing replied: "The Emperor Taishang is right to say so, but as businessmen, they should have the thinking of a businessman, and they should have been able to earn fifty yuan in transactions, but they lost 1,950 yuan, so it should be a loss of one or two silver, plus the time cost of purchasing goods and the time cost of trading." ”

"Therefore, the answer to this question depends on who can point out these, of course, if you answer 1,950 words, it is not wrong, but the score will be lower."

"You have a point!" The Emperor nodded and said, "From the surface to the inside, from this to the other, you can be transparent." Then he asked the second question.

Lu Jing continued: "This question also has a volcanic line, depending on whether they have noticed the time problem, the answer can be a profit of ten taels, or a loss of twenty taels, depending on how the respondent analyzes the behavior of the businessman in the question, as well as the changes in the market value of ginseng." ”

"If you can point to a change in market value in the short term, the answer is a profit of ten taels."

"The first transaction: buy fifty taels, sell sixty taels, and make a profit of ten taels. The second transaction: sold for sixty taels, bought for seventy taels, and lost ten taels. The third transaction: 70 taels to buy, 80 taels to sell, 10 taels to profit. Add it three times, and you will finally gain ten taels. ”

"If you think that the market is stable in the short term, and the businessman is not good and operates frequently, the answer is to lose 20 taels."

"The final value of this ginseng is eighty taels, if you wait until the fourth day to sell it, and complete the transaction at one time, you can directly sell it from fifty taels to eighty taels, making a profit of thirty taels, but in the end it only makes a profit of ten taels, which is considered a loss of twenty taels."

Emperor Taishang shook his head and said with a smile: "I thought I had earned twenty taels, and it seems that many people will be planted on this question." ”

Lu Jing nodded when he heard this, expecting someone to answer the answer of losing twenty taels.
