Chapter 62 Business Classics
came to the West Market, Zhang Baoer inquired several times, and finally found Cen Shaobai's shop. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Looking at the big characters of "Cen's Flower Ornament" on the plaque, Zhang Baoer couldn't help but shake his head, Cen Shaobai finally embarked on this road.
The shop is bustling with young women sitting around the table, looking at the patterns in their hands, and busily making all kinds of flower ornaments.
"There should be a combination of light and dark here, and the whole looks vibrant!"
"Isn't it like a finishing touch with a small piece of jewelry?"
"It should be a combination of flowers and silk flowers here......"
Cen Shaobai walked back and forth, pointing out these girls one by one on the side.
Seeing Zhang Baoer coming into the store, Cen Shaobai hurriedly came over to greet him: "Brother Zhang, why are you free?" ”
"I also have my share in this shop, why can't I come?" Zhang Baoer quipped.
Since he changed his career to business, Zhang Baoer simply changed his name for Cen Shaobai and directly called him Cen Shopkeeper.
"That's right, you're also the owner!" Cen Shaobai said with a smile.
"Shopkeeper Cen, you wrote the signboard of this store yourself, right?" Zhang Baoer asked.
"That's right!" Cen Shaobai admitted frankly: "The shop has just opened, there are many places that need to be overhead, and if you can save a little, you can save a little, instead of finding someone to write, it is better for me to write it myself, and it is considered that the scholar has not done it in vain for so many years!" ”
Zhang Baoer picked up a pattern on the table, looked at it carefully, and saw that the flower decoration in the pattern was exquisite, colorful and lifelike, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Cen shopkeeper, who painted this?" ”
"I painted it too!" Cen Shaobai said lightly.
"You drew it?" Zhang Baoer became more and more surprised, and couldn't see that Cen Shaobai was still an all-rounder.
"I have been fond of painting since I was a child, and even my husband praised me for being extremely talented in this area, but my family was poor and my parents could not afford to provide for me, so I gave up halfway." Speaking of this, Cen Shaobai smiled slightly: "I didn't expect it to be used at this time, and it was not in vain that I put in so much effort!" ”
Zhang Baoer looked at the finished products made by Cen Shaobai again, they are all good silk satin, which are matched and embellished in various ways, which are different, but just right, Zhang Baoer can't help but feel that Cen Shaobai actually has such a good imagination.
"Shopkeeper Cen, these flower ornaments can be sold, right?" Zhang Baoer asked.
"That's nature!"
As he spoke, Cen Shaobai had already put those finished products into the picker.
Zhang Baoer has been in the store for so long, but he hasn't even patronized a single customer, he can't help but be a little anxious for Cen Shaobai, the shop that has just opened is generally like this, and I don't know if Cen Shaobai can survive it.
"Yang Ke!" Cen Shaobai suddenly shouted towards the inner room.
An offspring came out of the back room.
This posterior is handsome and honest, dressed cleanly, and looks very comfortable.
However, Zhang Baoer felt a trace of melancholy from his gaze, the kind of melancholy that made people feel palpitations.
The latter looked at Cen Shaobai and said in a soft voice: "What does the owner command?" ”
"You look at the shop, I'll go out to sell the goods!" Cen Shaobai admonished: "If a customer comes to the door, you can help greet him!" ”
Hou Sheng nodded: "Don't worry, I'll greet you!" ”
Cen Shaobai picked up the load of goods and was about to go out, but Zhang Baoer grabbed him: "Shopkeeper Cen, what are you going to do?" ”
Cen Shaobai said with a smile: "Just waiting here, how can there be customers coming to the door, I have to go to the street to shout, so that everyone can remember the name of Cen's flower ornament." ”
Cen Shaobai once again surprised Zhang Baoer, he was right to do this, it was for the future generations, that is, to advertise.
"Shopkeeper Cen, I'll go and take a look too, how about it?"
"Of course, with you as a companion to speak, I can't ask for it!" Cen Shaobai readily agreed.
Cen Shaobai carried the burden, and Zhang Baoer and Li Si followed behind.
Zhang Baoer chatted with Cen Shaobai all the way: "Shopkeeper Cen, are you hired those girls and that guy?" ”
"Those girls are all skillful people around me, and they come to me to help, and they can earn some pocket money, not hire. The man's name is Yang Ke, he was left by the previous shopkeeper, his background is pitiful, and he has nowhere to go, so I left him behind! ”
Zhang Bao'er suddenly remembered that when she saw Yang Ke's melancholy eyes just now, she couldn't help but ask: "You said that Yang Ke has a poor background, what's going on?" ”
"Speaking of this Yang Kelai, I can be regarded as picking up a treasure again!" Cen Shaobai looked excited: "I rented this shop and talked to him specifically, although he is a buddy, he is quite good at making rouge!" ”
Zhang Baoer's heart moved: "Shopkeeper Cen, you won't still be dealing in rouge gouache, right?" ”
"Brother Zhang, you still understand my thoughts. This flower ornament is the same as rouge gouache, which is inseparable from a woman's family, and it is said that rouge is more marketable than floral ornaments, of course I will have such an idea. It's just that the flower ornament business has just started, and now the energy is limited, and the rouge gouache has to be put back! But with Yang Ke here, it's only a matter of time! ”
Looking at the ambitious Cen Shaobai, Zhang Baoer suddenly had an illusion: Could it be that he is crooked, Cen Shaobai is still a business material?
Thinking of this, Zhang Baoer shook her head and smiled: "With such a talent, you have to keep it, he is our cash cow!" ”
Cen Shaobai smiled bitterly: "I don't know this truth, I originally planned to let him be the shopkeeper of this shop, I can spare my energy to think of other ways to make money, but he refuses!" ”
"Why is that?" Zhang Baoer felt strange.
"Because he still has the end of his mind, he doesn't have the heart to be a shopkeeper at all, and being a buddy is also because life is forced to do it!"
Zhang Baoer wanted to ask again, but saw a few chattering women coming towards her, and when they saw Cen Shaobai carrying the flower ornaments in the burden, they immediately surrounded them happily.
Cen Shaobai's brain is very active, he knows that these women must be walking the streets and alleys all day long, and the most greedy, simply explain that he is the West City Cen flower ornaments, the first day buyers are free, these women can be free when they hear it, seeing that the goods are fresh and chic, they all feel that they have taken a big advantage, very happy, picked their own favorites, and left happily.
Cen Shaobai chose a crowded and lively place to attract customers, and in this way, within a few squares, Cen Shaobai's flower ornaments were snatched up. Since it is said that it is a free gift, it must not have earned a penny.
Zhang Baoer admires Cen Shaobai quite a lot, on the surface, he lost money, but in fact he earned a reputation. You must know that the mouths of those women are the best publicity, and they take advantage of it and inevitably spread it around, which is equivalent to advertising Cen flower ornaments for free.
Sure enough, when Zhang Baoer and Cen Shaobai were about to go out again on the third day, there were already many female customers who came into the store to buy, and most of them came after being introduced.
Cen Shaobai saw that the momentum was good, and began to carry the burden on the street again, of course, it was no longer free, but said that whether it was here or going to Cen Shi's shop to buy, if it was enough for ten flower ornaments, the price could be discounted, and if it was enough to buy one or two silver, three more flowers could be given, and the buyers were congested for a while.
Cen Shaobai does not take out the goods at one time when he sells the burden, he only sells half of the goods every day, and returns after selling, many people have not been able to buy it, and they can't help but sigh with regret, so they will inquire and come to buy.
In just ten days, the name of the Cen family's flower ornament was released, and Cen Shaobai's business also opened up.
