Chapter 79: The Battle of Luxury and FMCG
"Gee, how does this work?" The smile on Liu's face was as gentle as a spring breeze: "Your second uncle often tells me to take care of you more, these snacks are all bought for you, how can there be any reason to send them and take them back?" ”
With a liquor store under his name, Liu's waist is getting straighter and straighter. When he said this, the guys around who didn't know the truth thought that she was Du Baozhu's genuine second aunt, and hurriedly touched his nose and dispersed.
Lu Ming saw Du Baozhu's slender and delicate eyebrows gradually wrinkle, and knew that she was really angry. Hurriedly twisted Liu's wrist behind his back and pushed it out: "Liu Niangzi is polite, my little lady's family has strict rules, and she can't touch these foods of unknown origin." ”
said that the origin of the food was unknown, but in fact, it was said that the identity of the Liu family was unknown. Liu Shi was not ashamed at all, but just cried out in pain: "Brother Lu, you hurt the slave's hand." ”
Her voice was soft, so loud that her ears were red, and she grabbed her hand like a red-hot stick, and it was not to let go, nor to continue to hold on.
Du Baozhu looked at the Liu family with cold eyes, and the more he looked at the coldness between his eyebrows, the weaker it became. When the blood red of Lu Ming's ears stained her neck, she said compassionately: "Lu Ming, let her go." ”
Lu Ming was like a pardon, quickly let go of Liu, and retreated to the side.
Liu Shi rubbed his slightly red wrist, glanced at Lu Ming with disgust, turned his head to Du Baozhu and said, "Jiaojiao'er, this kid is like a piece of wood, where does he know how to hurt people." If you want to serve as a slave close to you, you might as well let me find it for you, and make sure that the one you find is more well-behaved and sensible than him. ”
"I won't worry about this matter." Du Baozhu smiled, but he didn't understand the words in Liu's words.
The shop of the coupon store is not large, and a few people stand in the shop, and they are so narrow that they can't turn around. She took the lead and walked upstairs: "What is Liu Niangzi looking for me, let's talk about it in detail in the private room." ”
Liu secretly pouted and secretly scolded Du Baozhu for pretending. However, thinking about the purpose of coming here today, she still obediently went upstairs: "Jiaojiaoer, I came today for the 'promotion conference'. ”
"Oh?" Du Baozhu looked unaware, and asked her curiously: "The vouchers for this promotional conference have not been officially sold yet, do you want to ask for some coupons in advance?" ”
"Of course not." The corners of Liu's mouth twitched, and it was not easy to maintain a gentle smile: "I'm here to remind you - Wang Debao, do you remember?" He saw that you were holding a promotion conference, and he also secretly made one, and he has signed contracts with many merchants. ”
Wang Debao is a person, there is not much great wisdom, but there are also a lot of small wisdom. When the new tea shop used coupons to promote, he saw the key at a glance, and copied it according to the gourd painting scoop and used it in Changle Liquor Shop.
If it weren't for the fact that Changle Liquor Store took the path of small profits and quick turnover, and the number of roads that did not match the coupons, maybe he could really make a name for himself.
Therefore, as soon as he heard that Wang Debao was also holding a promotion conference, Du Baozhu became vigilant. However, she still remembered Liu's identity, so she raised her round eyes and looked at Liu: "Wang Debao's promotion conference should be a secret, right?" How will it let you know? And why are you so kind to tell me? ”
"Look at what you said," Liu reserved a strand of hair hanging down from his ear and returned it behind his ear, and said with a smile: "We are also a family, how can there be a reason why our own people do not help our own people." As for where this news came from, it is difficult to tell you in detail, I can only guarantee that this news is real and true news. ”
"I see." Du Baozhu smiled, and his obsidian-like eyes sparkled: "Then I will thank Mrs. Liu for her generous help." ”
She took great pains to write down the three words 'Wang Debao' on the paper, and then raised her voice to ask the shopkeeper He to send off the guests.
Liu Shi couldn't help but be anxious when he saw this battle: "Jiaojiao'er doesn't believe me?" ”
In the past few days, Wang Debao's wine shop has also stopped, and she has been running around the streets with a few henchmen, and it took her a lot of effort to find out Wang Debao's whereabouts. She knew in her heart that if Wang Debao really succeeded in fighting back, the wine shop she had just arrived in would have to be lost. This was forced to take the risk to find Du Baozhu.
But now, she has also penetrated the bottom and said it, Du Baozhu didn't react at all. If this matter is reported back to Wang Debao's ears, won't she steal chickens and lose rice?
Thinking like this, she nailed herself to the spot and refused to leave, shouting: "This thing is true, if you don't believe it, go to the West Market to take a look, several mansions have signed contracts with him!" ”
Commerce flourished in the Tang Dynasty, and there was an endless stream of Hu merchants who came to Chang'an from the Western Regions to do business. Some of these people were particularly active-minded, so they bought mansions in the West Market and rented them to Hu merchants from Persia and the Western Regions who came to Chang'an to store and sell goods.
Because the people who rent the Di shop are all Hu merchants, the Di shop often sells exquisite goods from the Western Regions, that is, high-end goods of this era.
Wang Debao really has some brains, Du Baozhu is talking about commodities with a shorter service life and faster consumption, so he does the opposite, specializing in high-end goods used by nobles.
The economy of this era was mostly in the hands of the aristocracy, and the commoners used only a fraction of the money. If he is really allowed to break through this path, it will have an infinite impact on Du Baozhu's plan.
Du Baozhu's thoughts were spinning rapidly, but his face was still that ignorant and innocent: "The goods sold in the Di store are expensive and impractical, I didn't plan to cooperate, he wants to sign it." ”
What line is this? Liu was in a hurry: "Jiaojiao'er, you have to think about it." The profit of the goods sold by the Persian Mansion has often increased several times, and it is a big profit to make a few discounts! If this promotion conference is completed, you can't make as much money as him selling a hundred pancreas! ”
Du Baozhu still shook his head: "I didn't want to compete with him, he can sell as much as he wants." ”
After speaking, afraid that the Liu family would shout more details and startle the snake, Du Baozhu waved his hand at the shopkeeper He without raising his head: "Shopkeeper He, I bother you to send Mrs. Liu out." ”
As soon as the shopkeeper heard this, he knew that the little lady had other plans, so he hurriedly beckoned the two young men to come, and politely but could not refuse to carry Liu downstairs.
Liu's old trick was repeated, shouting for a while that his wrist hurts, and for a while he yells about back pain. But the two and a half big young men who supported her, let her shout flowers, the little man didn't understand, still held her wrist firmly, and pushed her straight out of the door: "Liu Niangzi walk steadily, don't fall." ”
Damn it! Liu's anger was pink. However, the two and a half big guys had their hands on their waists, and the door gods were generally stopped outside the coupon store, and she couldn't get in if she wanted to.
She was afraid that the matter would be big, and Wang Debao would know about it, even if she was angry, she didn't dare to make a fuss. He stomped his feet hard, but still turned around and walked away.
"Little lady." Shopkeeper He sent Liu away and turned back to the elegant room.
He has been a shopkeeper for many years, and he can barely see that Wang Debao's trip has a far-reaching impact on the securities bank, but he can't think of a way to deal with it.
Du Baozhu pinched his eyebrows and sighed with a headache. As soon as she made up her mind to break off her relationship with Li Jie, she encountered this incident.
Most of those who bought the goods of the Persian Mansion were nobles from the capital. If you want to get involved with these nobles, Li Jie, the longevity prince, is the best candidate. But if you can't use him, it's hard to do.
Thinking about it, I can't think of any good way. Du Baozhu had no choice but to put this matter down, put on a casual attitude on his face, and said lightly: "It's just a Wang Debao, there's nothing to worry about." You take the guys to do what you have in hand, so we don't have to be afraid of him. ”
"Hey! I'll go! Shopkeeper He received Du Baozhu's affirmative response, his heart was relieved, the folds on his face were missing, and he lifted the corner of his robe and hurriedly left.
Lu Ming and Du Baozhu were left staring at each other with big eyes: "Little lady, this is ...... Is it really okay? ”
"No problem." Du Baozhu took a deep breath, pulled out a smile and said, "Who am I, can I still be afraid of a subordinate who will not be defeated?" "Anyway, she has already made up her mind, and she will not ask Li Jie to go to the door no matter what.
"Jiaojiao'er, there are a few mansions in the West Market that have also participated in a promotion conference, but the one you have been doing these days?" When he went home for dinner in the evening, Cui suddenly mentioned this matter.
Since she accompanied Du Baozhu to Xin'an, her mind has calmed down a lot. Although I don't often stay in Du Baozhu's shop on weekdays, I always think a little more about things when I encounter them.
After Du Baozhu returned to the city, she was busy with the promotion conference, and she also knew it. Therefore, when I heard about the promotion meeting at the Nishishidi store today, I listened attentively.
"It's not our promotion." Du Baozhu didn't expect Wang Debao's promotion conference to be so impressive, and even Cui's had heard of it, and it was rare to be depressed. But in the next moment, her eyes suddenly widened, and her gaze fell on Cui's face.
Cui Shi was startled by his daughter's gaze, and couldn't help touching his cheeks: "What dirt is on my face?" Why are you looking at me like that? ”
"Nope." Du Baozhu stood up abruptly and walked towards Cui's with a smile: "A-Niang, you are really my lucky star!" I've got a solution. ”
"What can you do? But business is in trouble? Cui's couldn't keep up with the thoughts of his overlord, and he was dizzy when she hugged his neck.
Du Rang on the side saw it, and he was so distressed that he hurriedly grabbed Du Baozhu: "You girl wants to come out of it, what do you have to say, what are you doing to toss your mother?" ”
"Humph!" Du Baozhu cocked his nose, and he was very indifferent to his Aya's behavior of doting on his wife. However, she still obediently let go of her hand and sat next to Cui Shi to explain her plan.
"A-Niang, whether this can be done or not depends on you!"
Wang Debao wants to engage in luxury discount promotions, and there is a huge loophole in the middle. The economy of the Tang Dynasty was prosperous, and when the royal family and nobles bought exquisite luxury items, it was not because of how practical and affordable these items were, but because these extravagant toys and objects could show their status.
If you want Wang Debao's promotion conference to fail, you have to do the opposite. If he wants to discount, he wants to strengthen the correlation between the price and status of luxury goods, so that the aristocracy will be ashamed to buy discounted luxury goods. In this way, there is no need to exert much effort to completely beat Wang Debao back to its original shape.
"Look at me?" Cui Shi had already understood the reason, but when she thought that she was going to go to the front of the stage and deal with all the noble women, she was a little timid.
After listening to Du Baozhu's words, her head shook into a rattle: "I can't do this." ”
