"The starting point is good, but we are guilty of public anger and ostracism, and it is not surprising." Liu Yuan sighed and said.

Jin Qiaoqiao said in surprise: "Dongjia, you mean, the slave family did something wrong?" Are the ornaments of apprentices not supposed to be sold? ”

The brain was not slow, and he immediately heard the meaning of Liu Yuan's words, and guessed what Liu Yuan was referring to, she was really a shrewd woman.

"That's right" Liu Yuan nodded and said: "Jin Supreme was originally a leader in the industry, the Jin Yu family is also famous, the two of them are naturally very eye-catching, this time the two are one, and they have opened a few branches, which makes them jealous, and they join forces to deal with the Jin Yu family, naturally in reason, doing business depends on their ability, even if we open a branch, it is also reasonable, but we can't challenge their bottom line, even low-grade jewelry is also done." ”

"The owner, why do we open a branch, they don't mind, and as soon as we deal in low-grade jewelry, they will attack it en masse?" Jin Qiaoqiao asked a little puzzled.

Liu Yuan said wisely: "Doing business, although each has his own ability, but he can't do things absolutely, leave a line in everything, and see each other in the future, the Jinyu family is like a behemoth, plus the background, skills and fame, no matter where it opens, it can dominate, and other peers have to accept the bleak days, we have done high-end, mid-range, this has already eaten the biggest piece of fat, if we do low-grade again, it is equivalent to sealing other ways of life, isn't it that they are forced to despair?" The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, the rabbit bites in a hurry, if a person is in a hurry, what can't he do? The response has been quite mild now. ”

"The slave family understands." Jin Qiaoqiao suddenly realized: "What the owner means is that the Jinyu family can make high-end jewelry, and we don't do low-grade, forcing our peers to the ranks of low-grade, and then they will compete." Naturally, they can't take care of the Jinyu family, they have turned from their original allies to enemies, so the so-called alliance will no longer exist, and the Jinyu family will naturally no longer be targeted, right? ”

"Clever! With our strength, it is true that we can't eat all our peers, silver is not enough, and doing low-grade will also affect the image of our Jinyu family, there is no need to lose big because of a small loss, what was so famous for the former Jin Supreme. Because of its quality, everyone knows that the product of Jin Supreme must be a good product, and this reputation is very important. Of course, we're going to do it. It's when others think of high-end jewelry. Just think of my golden and jade family. ”

Jin Qiaoqiao lowered his head and said: "The owner is reasonable, the slave family is in a hurry, and if the major event is delayed, the owner will punish him." ”

"What is the punishment? Your intentions are good, and profits are indeed generated, so learn a lesson. ”

"Yes. The owner is really powerful, anything in your hands will become very simple. ”

Liu Yuan said with a serious face: "In business, there are a few points to pay attention to. Needless to say, honesty and trustworthiness are not to say, the second is to seize the opportunity, as the so-called first to eat meat, the second to drink soup, the third is estimated to be gone, in addition to one very important point, even if you can't earn the first pot of gold, don't think about earning the most copper plate. ”

"The first pot of gold? The last copper plate? ”

Accidentally, he said the words of later generations again, Liu Yuan hurriedly explained: "The first pot of gold, that is, the first big money, or something in the industry, is profitable at the beginning, and the last copper plate, that is, making money to the limit, and then earning it, will arouse the resistance of others, and it is too dangerous to do so." ”

This is a sentence that Liu Yuan heard in later generations, because a very successful businessman said that his industry was all over the region at that time, but he later transferred a large amount of money to overseas and made money from overseas, when the reporter asked him, he said that he could not make a dollar, otherwise he would become the target of public criticism, the first pot of gold is always better than the last dollar, and there is a sense of achievement, Liu Yuan was moved by this sentence at that time.

Successful businessmen will not make the last dollar, and this is also the case for history, just like those kings, didn't they conquer the most "copper plate" or the most "grain" in the hands of the people, and those people would risk losing their heads to rebel?

That's a wise way to say.

Jin Qiaoqiao thought for a while, and soon understood what Liu Yuan was going to say, and couldn't help but say with a look of admiration: "What the owner said is really every word, the slave family has been taught, but the matter has come to this, what should I do now?" ”

"Immediately sell the low-end jewelry business, let out the wind, the Jinyu family mainly focuses on high-end jewelry, concurrently operates some mid-range jewelry, and has no intention of operating low-grade jewelry, is a state capital, you think about it, can do high-end, just a few of them, jump to nowhere to go, that is, we do low-grade jewelry sales, so that most of the peers are forced to the opposite, and then by those who have the strength of a preach, this is the alliance against us, as long as we have the above tricks, the alliance will immediately collapse, The amount of strength is small, we are naturally better to deal with, if there is still any dissatisfaction, you can also discuss it privately with him. ”

"Yes, the owner, the slave family takes the order." Jin Qiaoqiao responded convincingly.

She was already a shrewd woman, and with a little nudge, she quickly knew what to do.

After discussing for a while, seeing that it was not early and the door was about to close, Jin Qiaoqiao got up to say goodbye, and Liu Yuan did not stay.

"Husband, let's have dinner, you slept all day, and now you should be hungry." Jin Qiaoqiao walked on the front foot, and Cui Mengyao walked in on the back foot and asked Liu Yuan to eat.

It's okay not to mention it, as soon as he mentioned being hungry, Liu Yuan immediately felt his stomach growling, slept all day, didn't eat breakfast, and was really about to faint from hunger, Wen Yan nodded and said, "I'm really a little hungry, well, okay, let's go eat." ”

I haven't eaten the food cooked at home for a few days, looking at a few women around me who are like flowers and jade, beautiful and delicious, Liu Yuan only feels that the rice is good, the food is fragrant, and it tastes very enjoyable.

Living in a luxurious and comfortable house, holding a woman like flowers and jade, counting the mountains of silver, brocade clothes and jade food, clothes to reach out, food to open the mouth, how comfortable, even if you change the emperor, you don't do it, like Li Er, you have to get up before dawn to get up in the early dynasty, every day there are endless twists and turns, do something out of the ordinary, Wei Heizi's group of officials are looking at the delay, the outside is afraid of foreign invasion, the inside is afraid that someone is plotting to usurp the throne, beware of this every day, suppress that, there are not many comfortable days, Liu Yuan would rather be a beauty than a country.

"Husband, there is something that the concubine almost forgot to tell you." Cui Mengyao said suddenly.

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"My father sent someone to pass the word at noon, saying that the material has been prepared, the roadbed has been trimmed and leveled, and a section is ready to be laid to test, so that you can pick a time as soon as possible, and let people shop a section first to see the effect."

The current policy is a small-scale trial, and it is feasible to develop it on a large scale, after all, it involves an investment of several million taels, which is definitely an astronomical amount, like Cheng Lao Demon King, in order to raise funds, the property in Chang'an has been cashed out, for the sake of prudence, it must be a section to test the effect first, and then it will be officially invested on a large scale.

"When did my father-in-law say?"

"I didn't say it, I said that several families have accommodated you, they have discussed, and they will build the section of the road more than thirty miles away from Chang'an, so that out of Chang'an, one can arrive in about an hour, and your uncles don't have to take leave."

Liu Yuan nodded and said: "It's late today, no, tomorrow, no, no, tomorrow night I have an appointment with Uncle Cheng, go to his house to get some bets, I can only the day after tomorrow, fortunately, the competition is over, the emperor's new order has not yet arrived, and the training can also be entrusted to the next person, and it is no problem to go away for three or five days." ”

As soon as he thought of the rare treasures that Cheng Lao Demon King said to him, Liu Yuan's eyes lit up, and the words "rare treasures" gave Liu Yuan unlimited imagination space.

Cui Mengyao calculated, nodded and said: "Three or five days, well, it's okay, husband, don't forget, you still have to go to Songzhou to marry the Tubo princess, and the flesh and blood of the Liu family." ”

Han one, Cui Mengyao didn't mention it, Liu Yuan almost forgot about it (to be continued......
