Chapter 269: The Fisherman's Benefit
In a day or two, the news of Han Rui's appearance also spread slowly, but because of Han Rui's low-key, unassuming, and only spread in a small area, the attention of the powerful people in the capital was still focused on Li Shimin's birthday banquet, and the focus of attention was naturally the fireworks in an instant.
After returning home, he immediately inquired about the origin of this strange thing, but unfortunately no one could tell why, so he could only ask the prince Li Chengqian for advice, naturally, with the energy of some high-ranking officials and ministers, it was not a big deal to knock on the side of a few words.
The name is clear, but what is the origin, it is not good to inquire in person, so I have to go through other channels to understand in a roundabout way, but in the past two or three days, in the palace city, it is possible to watch the scene of fireworks blooming from time to time, some people who do not know the truth, regard it as a miracle auspicious, kowtow to worship, boiling, almost alarmed the court, fortunately, Chang'an Ling came out for the first time, informed the facts, so far, the name of fireworks, not publicized.
The palace is inside, gathering the treasures of the world, that is a recognized thing in the world, and living in the capital, that is, ordinary people, but the knowledge is not bad, get the explanation, and disperse, but there is also a lot of discussion, in an instant, spread throughout the city, if it is not for the curfew at night, and the forbidden place of the palace city, can not be approached at will, I am afraid that at the time of the night, there must be thousands of people watching.
No matter how hot the people are, it will not have any impact, but in the eyes of some lords and magnates, wealthy businessmen, fireworks can make a big fuss, however, with their status and status, hearing that fireworks are circulating in the hands of the prince, no matter what they think, they can only look away and sigh.
It's just that when they gave up, a sudden invitation card made many people hopeful, and the people who received the invitation were the proprietors of the more famous businesses in the capital, inviting them to the long pavilion near the Baqiao to gather, but the invitation did not have any payment, if it was a normal time, everyone would definitely scoff, throw it into the corner, and ignore it.
However, the invitation mentions the word fireworks workshop, then it is worth thinking about, and after thinking twice, for various reasons, some people choose to ignore it and are not ready to participate, and some people are curious and ready to find out, anyway, it is a meeting at noon, in broad daylight, and with enough servants, so there is no danger.
Of course, there are also some people who can't be the master, and they want to ask the master behind the scenes, and what results they get, and they don't say much, anyway, after everyone goes, they find that there are many acquaintances here, and some are competitors in the business field, and they are surprised for a while, but they are more at ease, at least they don't have to worry about encountering scams.
Pi smiled and greeted each other without smiling, tempted, they were not the main owner, everyone also scattered and waited, and there were not many proprietors with invitations, but there were more than ten people, but they all brought enough guards, the pavilion was not there, but it was very crowded, fortunately this is the place where Baqiao sent off, and people often gathered, and it did not attract attention.
After waiting for a while, the main lord did not appear, and some people were impatient, wondering if someone was deliberately playing with themselves, just when he hesitated, a chubby middle-aged man, with two or three servants, hurriedly walked over, brushed his sleeves and wiped the sweat on his forehead, looked around, and did not talk nonsense, and said with a smile: "It's late, please forgive me." ”
Well, when the main lord arrived, everyone was in high spirits, carefully looked at the visitor, but there was no impression in their minds, and they stepped forward to salute, prepared to greet each other, inquired about the details of the other party, and invited their own purpose, but saw the chubby middle-aged man waved his hand, took the tubular bamboo from the servant's hand, took a few steps back, and lit it.
Suddenly, the sound of a sudden sound sounded, and the first-class fire burst into the sky, exploding in mid-air, stirring up brilliant sparks, even though it was in the daytime, it was also extraordinarily brilliant and beautiful, so that everyone could see the heart swaying and intoxicated.
A touch of pride flashed in Qian Xu's eyes, coughed, attracted everyone's attention, and preemptively said: "This is fireworks, I guess you brothers have heard of it." ”
"That's nature." Everyone nodded their heads, their eyes were burning, and they did not hide their greed, anyway, everyone is a businessman, and they have speculated about the purpose of this trip, and they somewhat understand Qian Xu's intentions, and now they are waiting for him to be open and honest, and bargain.
"Everyone understands, then I won't go around in circles." Qian Xu said with a smile: "Although fireworks are a new thing, the princes and nobles in the capital, wealthy and wealthy families, if they have the opportunity, they will definitely be willing to spend a lot of money, but they are extremely scarce on the market, and they can even be called none." ”
"This brother, you don't need to say much, draw a line, as much as you have, I will ask for as much as you want."
"That's right, as long as my brother has the goods, I can eat more."
“……”
Everyone is tempted, businessmen are profit-seeking, almost heavenly surnames, as long as it is profitable, regardless of the origin of the money, anyway, doing business is to pay money with one hand and take the goods with one hand, and there will not be much risk.
"Brothers, don't worry." Qian Xu smiled and repeated what he had already said several times: "Have you found that you have something in common?" ”
Everyone looked at each other, and the similarity was that everyone was a businessman, but the shops they operated were different.
In a hurry, Qian Xu didn't sell Guanzi, and said directly: "Your shops are all in the same street, but according to the meaning of our proprietor, in order to avoid the trouble of delivery, there is also unnecessary competition, each street only supplies one store, sign a contract, now, it depends on the meaning of your brothers." ”
Only supply one store, it is clear that everyone is fighting, it is really a good calculation, everyone's hearts were suddenly awe-inspiring, silent, calculating the gains and losses, Qian Xu smiled, knowing what could it do, would they give up sending the fat on the side of their mouths?
didn't give everyone time to think about it, Qian Xu said: "Brothers, how do you think about it, I also made an appointment with the shopkeeper of the adjacent street to gather nearby, and I can't delay, if you brothers don't want to do this business, then I'll leave." ”
"Brother Ren stays." Naturally, someone stopped him, and said with a wry smile: "We understand what you mean, but we don't explain the specific regulations, the purchase price, how to determine which store it is......"
"Hehe, thanks to Brother Tai's reminder, it's the younger brother who is busy and confused." Qian Xu apologized, smiled and said: "A section of fireworks is a hundred yuan, with a period of one month, we can provide goods worth thousands of yuan every time, as for how to price it, it is your own business." ”
Purchase 100 Wen, sell 200 Wen, there should be no problem, deduct the cost, and double the profit, if a thousand, then a month is 30,000 Yuan, isn't it a big profit, everyone thinks about it, but understands, it is just the most ideal situation, and the actual operation must be different, but making money is an inevitable thing.
"What about a month from now?" Someone asked.
Qian Xu replied with a smile: "After a month, if anyone is interested, we can continue to renew the contract." ”
Everyone's eyes flickered, and they all understood the meaning of Qian Xu, and they had already hinted very clearly, that is, to take advantage of the lack of imitation fireworks on the market, do exclusive business, and make a lot of money, as for the future, it depends on the situation.
After thinking about it for a while, someone finally asked, "Brother, how do you determine whose store to supply?" ”
In the eyes of everyone's concern, Qian Xu said lightly: "The one with the highest price wins." ”
"What do you mean?" The crowd was bewildered.
Qian Xu explained leisurely: "A penny is the floor price, there is no upper limit, which of you has a high price, we will cooperate with whomever you offer." ”
In an instant, everyone's faces changed, so insidious intentions, no wonder they threatened to supply only one store, obviously wanting them to compete, profit for themselves, and obtain more profits.
Qian Xu smiled lovely, and sighed in his heart, there is no way, the background is insufficient, recruiting craftsmen, working overtime, rushing to work at night, and can't supply the east and west cities, all the stores, so I have to take a compromise idea, but the money seems to be quite fast.
Proud in his heart, Qian Xu said: "What have you thought about, it's just a penny of the franchise fee, and the first bidder will get it." ”
"Brother Tai, I am willing to go out of 100 times." One person said, what a penny, whoever believes is stupid.
"Two Hundred ......"
At this time, everyone knew that Qian Xu had bad intentions, but they had to grit their teeth and slowly increase the price, after all, as long as they had a little vision, they could see that the fireworks on the market must be robbed by the whole city.
While calculating how much they can profit, while hesitating about the price increase, the risk crisis and huge profits coexist, how to find a balance, but it is a headache for everyone, the bidding soon broke through a thousand runs, reached the psychological bottom line of some people, have hesitated, unwilling, and see that others did not stop the meaning of the offer, more entangled...... This scene, within a day, was staged several times in various parts of the capital, and the process can be described as some people are happy and some are worried, amazed, disappointed, angry, gloating, all kinds of moods, everything, and in the next few days, this kind of scene should continue to be staged, as for whether it will set off any undercurrents, waves, etc., it is not within the scope of Han Rui's consideration.
However, in this way, he will definitely expose himself, after all, those powerful businessmen are not vegetarians, and Qian Xu has no intention of hiding his whereabouts, but Han Rui is not worried, in this world, some things are very complicated, but there are also simple times, on the surface, it is Qian Xu who is responsible for this matter, Han Rui can be clean and clear at any time, some things, everyone can be psychologically clear, poke it out, it is not good for anyone.
Besides, now Han Rui is doing an exclusive business, not eating alone, only providing goods, and not interfering in the sales process, it should be a lot less troublesome, and there is no need to worry about some people being red and doing some irrational behavior.
Therefore, Han Rui was very at ease, leisurely riding a green BMW, running towards the imperial city with a spring breeze, with a tooth tag to prove his identity, he passed all the way unimpeded, and went directly to the Ministry of Rites......
