Chapter 253: The True Purpose of the Maritime Merchant

"Don't hide it from Zhen Lang, it is precisely because of last year's gale, that I waited for the maritime merchants to retreat, Zhen Lang didn't know, these years the sea wind has continued, and there are countless maritime merchants who have gone bankrupt, and some even chose to hang themselves because of the tragic thing of the goods buried at the bottom of the sea, so we discussed it privately, and prepared to take advantage of the big losses to see if we can change careers to operate on land!"

As far as Zhen Qian knows, natural disasters such as the bursting of the Yellow River, the ravages of locusts, and the drought in the north have begun to be staged.

But what does this have to do with Zhen Qian, Zhen Qian slandered in his heart, he is not a Daluo Immortal, he thinks that he can't help these maritime merchants now, the most important thing is that the status of the two sides is not equal now, even if there is a good way, he will not say it.

Zhen Qian expressed 10,000 sympathies for the current situation of the maritime merchants, expressed deep concern for the bankrupt maritime merchants, and expressed the deepest condolences for the maritime merchants who died as a result...... Without!

Seeing that Zhen Qian was still indifferent, and he didn't know whether he really didn't understand, or he was pretending to be confused, Zhang Tianbao waved his hand to let the singers in the hall retreat, and then said with a serious expression: "I can't hide it, I invited Zhen Lang to come this time, there is a very important matter to discuss with Zhen Lang ......."

"The meat show is finally on!"

Zhang Tianbao invited himself to come today, of course, it will not be to complain to himself, on the contrary, his business and maritime merchants can't fight together, the only intersection is the restaurant business, but the competition between the two sides is greater than cooperation, obviously not comrades in the same boat?

"Master Zhang, please speak!"

This time Zhang Tianbao did not hide it, and gave a general introduction to the current situation of the maritime merchants, these maritime merchants have their own industries on land, for example, the Zhang family has its own restaurant, and other maritime merchants either have their own silk shops, or have porcelain shops, but in the past, the main business was concentrated in maritime trade, and there was little involvement in the business on land, and now they suddenly want to change careers, but they find that the situation is very unoptimistic.

The reason is very simple, now that maritime merchants want to re-meddle in the business on land, they will inevitably clash with other merchants, and other merchants have been operating for many years, and it is not easy to squeeze the market share of other merchants, and at the same time, it is inevitable that other merchants will join forces to fight back.

The two sides can be said to be evenly matched, and it doesn't matter if they lose a little money, but they can't open the market for a long time, which makes it difficult for the maritime merchants to sleep.

It is impossible for both sides to go on indefinitely, and this is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the maritime merchants who have just prepared to go ashore.

At this moment, Zhang Tianbao's eyes were fixed on Zuixianlou, and the merchants began to analyze the business mode of Zuixianlou while being surprised that this foreigner could quickly occupy the Yangzhou market.

Finding that the reason why Zuixian Lou was able to gain a firm foothold in the market in Yangzhou had little to do with the forces behind it, the maritime merchants found that the endless business commodities on the Zuixian floor were the secret, so they thought of pulling Zhen Qian over and occupying the blank market in Yangzhou to avoid head-on conflicts with the business scope of local merchants.

Zhang Tianbao said bluntly: "Zhen Lang now understands our situation, and also knows our plan to invite you today, how about it...... Would you like to work with us? ”

Zhen Qian didn't expect that these maritime merchants had started investigating themselves half a year ago, and had sent people to Luquan County, but they had never been in contact with him, because these maritime merchants had not been cornered at that time, and it was a strong wind last year that completely made these maritime merchants give up their illusions and choose to contact him directly.

"It turns out that you have noticed me a long time ago, in this case, open the skylight and say something, how do you want to cooperate with me, come and listen?"

Rounding around the bush can't solve the problem, if possible, these maritime merchants prefer to swallow Zhen Qian into their stomachs, but unfortunately after Zhang Tianbao researched, he found that it was impossible to achieve it in a short period of time, and there was only one way left.

When Zuixianlou first opened in Yangzhou, the business was not obvious, and it could even be said that it was deserted, and many people scoffed at the dishes of Zuixianlou, thinking that it was grandstanding.

But soon, Zuixianlou attracted the attention of Yangzhou people with dishes of different prices in high, medium and low, and the means of operation were endless, almost a change in ten days, a new trick a month, and the early business that other restaurants were unwilling to operate has also become the highlight of Yangzhou catering, and then the concept of morning tea and afternoon tea appeared, if it were not for the night curfew, there would be evening tea really uncertain.

Just when other restaurants were dumbfounded, Zuixianlou found another way in the marketing model, launched a door-to-door service, in the past, this kind of service other restaurants did not care at all, but when they saw the booming business of Zuixianlou, they could no longer hold back, Zuixianlou's business philosophy is often the sword to go sideways, other restaurants have basically not touched, and other restaurants do not have the opportunity to compete at all.

Summer frost and sweet and delicious pastries are one of the biggest features of the drunken fairy building, many ladies will let the maids and maids wait in line at the door of the drunken fairy building every day, just to be able to taste the freshly baked pastries, as a result, many good people stuffed the drunken fairy building early in the morning, not to mention the popularity of the drunken fairy building, but also robbed many of the long-term customers of other restaurants, hated itchy.

There is such a saying in Yangzhou, as long as it is a drunken fairy building, it must be a high-quality product, if anyone has not tasted it, they are embarrassed to say hello when they meet people.

Drunken Immortal Building has not only opened up a piece of virgin/female land from scratch, but also these industries are brand new forbidden lands, and other restaurants have no chance to get involved, so naturally there is no competition.

It's not that there are no other restaurants to fight the idea of drunken fairy building, but the problem is the confidentiality measures of drunken fairy building, that is super first-class, tea and shochu are directly sent to drunken fairy building from the outside, and the pastry business is only attached to drunken fairy building, and drunk fairy building is an owner, but it is a different person to manage, as for the production of new cooking dishes, it is also in the hands of several chefs, and the shopkeeper can't intervene at all, so it is impossible to steal such a set of management models in a short period of time.

Although Zhen Qian didn't know about these maritime merchants, he could guess that they were probably making small moves behind their backs before, which is not to say that Zhen Qian was prescient, it was completely out of consideration for the protection of trade secrets in later generations.
