Chapter 219: Do you open a restaurant in the wasteland for fox spirits?
Xi Hongdou felt that she was not a superwoman after all, she could manage everything, and she really couldn't do anything about Xiao Zhi's affairs in the court, and all she could do was to take good care of Xiao Zhi, so that Xiao Zhi had no worries.
In April, Daguli came all the way from Huifu, and this time her husband and children came, so Xi Hongdou directly arranged a place to live, and she was all-inclusive of food and accommodation.
"Thank you so much." Daguli said that Xi Hongdou treated her with courtesy every time.
"Yes, you guys should rest first, and then we'll talk about business." Xi Hongdou said, and asked the inn to arrange three meals a day.
The next day, Daguli couldn't stay idle, so she came to Xi Hongdou to discuss the ideas in the letter.
"I only have one friend of yours in Huifu, and I have stumbled and stumbled since doing business, and now I want to make the sales point bigger in Huifu, and I will not only sell grain in the future." Xi Hongdou said.
Dagul said: "But the price you give for the grain is not high, and you promise to recycle it, I dare to accept it, but for the rest, you said that there are suppliers to provide it to me, can they also give it a low price?" ”
"I joined the trading guild in Kyoto City, and the price given internally is not high, at least it is lower than the purchase price you have outside, and they can't set up a sales point in Huifu, and it is difficult to ensure the peace, so you are different, I will go and tell them that you can get the lowest price of the goods." Xi Hongdou said.
Daguli believes that Xi Hongdou has this ability, but she has always been suppressed in big commercial houses, and it is difficult to negotiate it.
"I'm just saying an idea now, if I can talk about it, it's also a profitable business for you, what do you think?" Xi Hongdou asked, she also had to be sure of Daguli's thoughts, don't let her persuade those business owners to ship, Daguli doesn't agree, it will be in vain.
Daguli thought about it and said, "Okay, who doesn't want to make money, huh?" "It's also an opportunity for her, Yanyun's goods have always been in demand in Huifu is also a very sought-after expensive goods, never worry about selling, but the price is too high, if she can act as an agent for these Yanyun's goods, except for the pricing, the rest will be her earnings, and when the time comes, she will sell more and sell less! As long as the price is a little lower than others, she will be the biggest merchant in the end!
Xi Hongdou smiled, she knew that Daguli was also a smart businessman and would definitely accept her advice, and the relationship between the two also contributed to her success.
Soon after, Xi Hongdou gathered all the people of the business guild together through Han Ting, and as soon as Xi Hongdou said his thoughts, someone put forward an opinion, saying: "So many things are handed over to an outsider, and it is not a silver goods in person, I don't worry, it is not my race, and its heart will be different!" ”
Xi Hongdou said: "I don't force everyone, but my account flow Boss Han has also seen it, and in only half a year, I can reach the level of entering the business guild, which shows that this method is absolutely feasible, and Daguli is my big customer, and I have never made a mistake in the transaction for three years, which everyone can rest assured!" ”
Merchants also have all kinds of concerns, the goods in their hands are not falling from the sky, if the goods are taken away, and they can't get the money, I'm afraid that there will be problems in the capital chain. Regarding this, Xi Hongdou also understands, so he doesn't force it. Those who have an advantage in resources can get it, and then they will get better resources, and this is how the gap opens.
Han Ting expressed his attitude: "I participate." "The Han family has a big business, and a lot of goods in the warehouse can also be taken out for activities.
Xi Hongdou saw Han Ting's statement, so he said: "The price can be set at a higher level, so if we sell it like this, we will make money, but we can't sell it, the goods are still ours, and every time we take the goods, we must have a document to explain, and there will be no loss." There is only one point, the goods must be good, not shoddy, which will ruin the reputation of our Yanyun businessmen! "In any case, the quality of the goods must be guaranteed, otherwise any form will eventually perish!
It was also the first time for everyone to see this female boss who had entered the merchant guild, but even if they didn't look at this woman's ability, they all believed in Han Ting's vision, some of them expressed their willingness to give it a try, and the other part just wanted to wait and see first, and they didn't dare to try it easily.
Xi Hongdou said at this time: "I also want to explain that the caravan that transports goods belongs to my Xi family." ”
When the people heard this, they said, "We have a caravan of our own, and this is ......."
"This is the request of other people's agents." Xi Hongdou said, this is also what she and Daguli agreed on, and if she came up with her own idea, it can't be without any benefits. For Daguli, it is the same for anyone's caravan, anyway, the money for transportation is not from her, so she naturally has to stand aside with Xi Hongdou. On the other hand, these businessmen can no longer use other agents, making her a monopoly trend.
Xi Hongdou took out the draft contract for everyone to see, and the relevant terms were agreed on it, and everyone thought it was reasonable, especially when it was said that they were not allowed to find other agents and teams within five years, they had no choice, after all, they had no power in Hui, and now they could only take Xi Hongdou's road.
"You don't have to worry, in three days, let's come here again, and then everyone can talk about their decisions." Xi Hongdou said, doing business is what you and I want, she doesn't force it, and these businessmen also understand that if she wants to monopolize, she can buy goods directly by herself, why bother looking for them, just this point, everyone doesn't think there is anything wrong with Xi Hongdou promoting his own caravan.
The main reason why Xi Hongdou doesn't stock up on the goods and sell them by herself is that she doesn't want to bet all the money on the goods, and she may not laugh at it alone, but she mainly wants to buy a good one, and she can also have a say in the business association in the future, and let these men not underestimate her ability as a businesswoman!
After the meeting, everyone left first, and Han Ting said to Xi Hongdou: "I really said that you should do this by yourself." ”
"I think differently, I make enough money to enjoy my whole life, and I want to do something I think is interesting." Xi Hongdou said, money is indeed good, all the hard work he pays is to make money, and with money he has a comfortable life, but if he puts the cart before the horse, he will not be able to eat well and sleep well in order to make money, it will be a pity. Money is just a number to a certain extent, life does not bring death and does not take away, she wants to choose to live a comfortable life for decades.
Han Ting laughed directly at Xi Hongdou's words: "If this is heard by other bosses, I'm afraid I will scold you for getting carried away." ”
Xi Hongdou also smiled, feeling that she was a bit Versailles, but she was indeed different from others, others had to consider how many people in the family had to consider, and secondly, her family was not so mouthful, and she didn't need to think about it, she just had to think about her own life.
When she left the merchant guild, she heard someone calling her on the way, and as soon as she turned around, she saw the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Yan Gongzi?" Xi Hongdou didn't expect to meet here, so he asked, "Yan Gongzi has returned to Beijing?" "Count Yan Qi's term of office has not yet expired.
Yan Qi got out of the carriage directly and said, "I'm back early, and it's not a difficult place for me to go, but it's not as good as Brother Xiao." ”
Xi Hongdou smiled, Yan Qi is the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the champion of the new department, and it is reasonable for the emperor to reuse it.
"It's not early, I'll say goodbye first, and I'll hold a banquet in Fuxianglou at noon tomorrow, hoping that Brother Xiao can come to enjoy his face." Yan Qi took out a post as he spoke, and when he met Xi Hongdou, he handed it over directly.
Xi Hongdou then said, "Okay." ”
After the two finished speaking, they separated first, Xi Hongdou went home and handed the invitation to Xiao Zhi, Xiao Zhi looked at it, and said: "Yan Qi is back, so naturally he wants to gather more contacts and move around." "These people who are in the same period or classmates need to contact their feelings the most, especially many of them are on errands in Beijing, and they are also the best contacts for Yan Qi.
"Yan Qi should also inherit his father's business, and he will be the most advanced cabinet in the future." Xi Hongdou said, the cabinet is one person under ten thousand people, the first assistant of the cabinet of the dynasty is Yan Qi's Laozi, and the rest are all pillars of the court, and major national affairs are also decided by others, and the emperor has to listen to persuasion.
Xiao Zhi said, "I'm also going to enter the cabinet." ”
"I think there may be some hope for changing the bragging problems first!" Xi Hongdou laughed directly, anyone can enter the cabinet, her father-in-law Master Xiao has only entered the cabinet in the past two years, and it is also a small tail position, Xiao Zhi really doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick.
Xiao Zhi didn't believe Xi Hongdou when he saw it, and he wasn't in a hurry, so he said, "Let's wait and see if I can enter!" "It's not easy, he doesn't know how many years he will have to walk, but he still has this confidence!
Sometimes Xi Hongdou feels that there is no big difference between these officials and people who do business, but she is doing the business of a few people, and the official is doing the business of a country.
Xi Hongdou went to investigate outside the city, there are also fishermen by the water, and there are also those who specialize in fishing and selling fish, but there are still few, after all, it is not a wharf, and there is no need to take the waterway, so in addition to the people who play and watch the scenery, there are not many people who usually come on weekdays.
"Uncle, how is your business here for a day?" Xi Hongdou came with Sister-in-law Liu, and the two got on the boat directly and bought a pot of fresh fish soup, which can be eaten while boating, and the old man who rocked the boat can sing tunes, which feels good.
The old man rocked the boat and said: "Business is not very good, now that the weather is warm, there are occasional people, and there are very few people who usually come, and most of my fishing can only be sold in the city, and it is wrong to earn food and drink." ”
When Xi Hongdou heard this, he said, "Do you want to follow me in your career?" ”
"Huh? What big deal can you do with a girl doll? The old man still didn't believe it, thinking that Xi Hongdou was joking.
Xi Hongdou said: "In a few days, I will open a restaurant here!" ”
"There are few people in this place, and if you open a restaurant here, won't you have to pay for death?" The old man said with a smile, thinking that Xi Hongdou might not have a good brain!
