Chapter 99: Monopolizing Business on the Prairie

When he first came to the steppe, Bai Gui was still worried: how can he have a good relationship with these nomadic leaders on the grassland? And? Get on good terms with those suitors of Snow Lotus.

Right now! All worries are unnecessary!

The original worry was: You are a middle-aged uncle, why should you marry a young and beautiful wife, and why should you marry Xuelian? And also! Why do you have a relationship with us prairie people? How do you say that you do business with integrity and how famous you are in the Great Zhou world? Who believes?

The grassland people look at Snow Lotus's face, if they keep giving Snow Lotus face, they won't give you face. When the time comes! How awkward was the scene and atmosphere?

If that happens, you don't have to give someone a gift. Or! That contemptuous look at people will only make you unbearable.

At the beginning, Bai Gui was so worried! In the memories of fusion, the impression that the prairie people gave to Bai Gui was not good. Bai Gui's predecessors thought that the steppe people were very barbaric, had problems with IQ, and there were few people with normal brains. So! I don't want to go directly to the prairie to do business.

What if that's really the case? He came to the grassland to be a foil for Snow Lotus, so he was ashamed to throw it on the prairie. It's true! The steppe people don't know how to despise you in front of you and behind your back!

There is one aspect, and there is another.

That is! Snow lotus has countless suitors in the savannah. Those self-righteous prairie men all felt that they were amazing, and Snow Lotus was worthy of them. And once Xue Lian comes to these people with his uncle-level husband, it is strange that these people don't fight with you?

With the wildness of the grassland people, they just don't accept that a middle-aged uncle married Snow Lotus. thinks: Your middle-aged uncle marrying Snow Lotus is an insult to them. So! Is it strange not to fight with you?

As you can imagine! Not to mention fighting every day, at least everywhere you go, someone will come to you to fight. When the time comes! Fighting is not a hassle, and there are a lot of unexpected problems that can be caused by it.

It's good now! If you defeat the Blue Bead Prince, you will be able to make all the grassland people who were defeated by the Blue Bead Prince dare not touch you. Not only do they not dare to touch you, they are afraid of you! Respect you!

Furthermore! He defeated the Balkans again, and even more so that his heroic name was confirmed, and no one doubted it anymore.

And also! He personally led the people of all ethnic groups to drive away the Yiqu people, and killed the Yiqu people only to escape, which made the people of all ethnic groups admire.

So! Now for nothing! No! The current Shang Shengbai Gui is much smoother in doing things on the grassland.

After dealing with the scene, Bai Gui did not forget his original intention, did not forget the purpose of coming to the prairie, and talked about business with the leaders of various tribes.

With such a good foundation, it is natural to talk about business matters. Isn't it just to open a warehouse and sell Zhoudi's products. And then! The exchanged goods are then transported to the circumference.

"I'm going to partner with you, or with your local merchants. Otherwise! There's no way to do this business! Best! It's a partnership with you! Otherwise! I can't get on good terms with local businessmen......"

Bai Gui voiced his concerns.

If you don't partner with powerful people such as tribal leaders, you will definitely not have a good relationship with local merchants in the future.

The local merchants are generally very treacherous, and the goods they sell fluctuate in price. People sell at market prices, and when there is a lack of a certain commodity in the market, they immediately increase the price. Sometimes, there will be some monopolistic operations. Otherwise! None of them are merchants.

No treachery, no business! But! This is not the way Baekyu's predecessors do business! It is true that businessmen want to make profits, but they will never make a fortune in the country, they will never make huge profits after monopoly, and they will never do anything that is sorry for their conscience...... Only by doing business legally and honestly can we do business for a long time.

It is precisely because the way of doing business is different, so! Once the warehouse is opened on the prairie, it definitely has nothing to do with the local merchants. The local businessmen can't make huge profits, and they will do whatever it takes to drive you away. They think! You robbed them of their business, or rather, smashed their jobs.

"I don't want you to contribute, I'll pay for the funds! We only send a shopkeeper to be responsible for accounts and sales, and the rest of the personnel are all you grassland people, and we pay wages in the warehouse! What about you! Just be responsible for upholding justice, and don't let the local businessmen or someone smash the store......"

"Who dares to smash the white official's warehouse?"

"Dare! If they can't do it in the open, they will come to the dark, why don't they dare? ”

"This!"

"Plus! Opening a warehouse is a very large warehouse! For example! I also need a ranch! I have to have a place to store my cattle, sheep and horses in exchange? Isn't it? ”

"That's no problem! My family's ranch is your white official's ranch! Our tribe's pastures, you can graze freely......"

"This won't work! There has to be a fixed range, or not! It will cause misunderstandings. Not quite! You give me a ranch and I'll rent you! ……”

Partnering with a local businessman to open a warehouse, it is not safe to return in vain. The two sides have different business philosophies and cannot cooperate at all. If you don't send a few smart people to watch, it's easy for the other party to eat your goods. When the time comes, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and you have no way to take others.

Of course! Not absolutely! On the grassland, there are also businessmen who do business, and not all businessmen are black-hearted.

If you can cooperate, you will cooperate, and if you can't cooperate, you will never make do. With Bai Gui's financial resources, only by opening up the relationship on the grassland, it is absolutely not a problem for one person to open a warehouse alone.

The relationship on the grassland was opened, the warehouse was successfully opened, and the goods were transported over in the future, and the safety factor was high. The goods can be transported in batches and sections. You can first transport the goods from Zhoudi to Yinshan Town in Zhongshan Kingdom, and then transport the goods to the grove to accumulate them. And then! Centered on a grove or a certain place, the goods are delivered to each destination in pieces.

Only by establishing a huge sales network and having its own warehouses in each locality can we deal with individual local criminal traders. With a single warehouse, local vendors may fight a price war with you and bring down your warehouse first.

And also! After establishing a huge sales network here, it will be strong in terms of the number of personnel and the strength of the defense. If there is a few evil traders who want to do something, our defense forces will come together and defeat the opponent in minutes.

If you only have one warehouse here, it's easy for someone to fix you! In this era of cold weapons, in this era of speaking by force, it is unreasonable. A lot of times, fists speak, and everything is solved by force.

The commercial circle established by Shang Sheng Baigui's predecessors only took Zhongshan as a base and developed northwest along the border of Qin. He rarely touches on business in the depths of the northern steppes. Due North! The weather was cold, the population was even more sparse, and the distance was even farther away, and there was no way to do this business.

In the north of Zhao State, Shang Sheng Baigui only opened warehouses in the border towns of Zhao State and did business with merchants in the north, and rarely went out of the border to the grassland.

In the border town of Yan Kingdom, Shang Sheng Baigui did not open a warehouse. The business in Yan is in some big cities. Because! The population of Yan is too small, there is no way to open a warehouse in a small place, the goods cannot be sold, and the throughput is too small.
