Chapter 47: Talking about the sale of piles
Li Xuan glanced up at the plaque, which was engraved with the three big characters "Haitian Pavilion", which reminded him of modern Haitian soy sauce.
He smiled, with a hint of bitterness on his lips, and walked into the shop.
"Do you need to buy ready-to-wear or satin?" The guy stepped forward and asked.
Pingfu said: "Tell your shopkeeper to come out, and our son has something to say to him." ”
"This..."The guy hesitated a little, he looked Li Xuan up and down, guessing which young master this was.
In the end, the man said, "Please wait a while, have a cup of tea, and the little one will immediately call the shopkeeper to come over." ”
After speaking, he poured tea for Li Xuan and walked into the inner room.
After a while, the shopkeeper walked out, looked at Li Xuan suspiciously, and asked, "I don't know if this little boy needs to talk to me about anything?" ”
Li Xuan said lightly: "I want to talk to you about business." ”
"Buying and selling?" The shopkeeper was a little surprised, "The contemptible surname is Li, I don't know the surname of the son?" ”
"My surname is Li."
"Li Gongzi, why don't we go to the backyard and talk?"
"Okay."
Shopkeeper Li led Li Xuan and the others to the backyard, and after asking someone to pour tea, he went straight to the point: "I don't know what deal Mr. Li wants to talk to me?" ”
Li Xuan drank a cup of tea slowly, and then said slowly: "Haitian Pavilion, which has been open for ten years, has been prosperous for a few years.
"But since last year, your shop has gradually declined, and this year, it has been unable to make ends meet."
Shopkeeper Li's face changed greatly, how did this little boy know about the business status of the shop? Mo not...
"Don't think about it, I wasn't sent by your opponent, nor by your original boss."
Shopkeeper Li paused, and then listened to Li Xuan continue: "Haitian Pavilion is located in the bustling and lively Taikangfang Street, but there is Tianyi Pavilion that specializes in selling high-quality luxury items ten zhang away from the left front, and there is a flat dress house dedicated to serving the common people at a distance of fifteen zhang on the right.
"Tianyi Pavilion wins in high quality materials and novel styles, and flat clothes win in low prices and durable materials.
"And your shop, whether it is the material of the clothing, the style of the ready-to-wear, or the price, is in the middle, so most people will not come into your shop to buy things."
Shopkeeper Li's face had become gloomy: "I don't know what Gongzi Li meant by saying this?" ”
Li Xuan: "If your shop is still losing money this month, then you will close your shop next month."
"If I say I have a way to turn your shop around and make another profit, will you believe me?"
Shopkeeper Li said honestly: "Although Li Gongzi talks well, he is too young and too young, I... To be honest, I don't believe you. ”
It's a sincere person.
Li Xuan: "If you don't believe me now, it doesn't matter, in the future, you will believe what I say today." ”
As he spoke, he took out a painting and spread it out on the table, and continued: "I noticed that your shop mainly sells ready-to-wear and silk, but also some toys for children to play with, including cloth tigers.
"I have a kind of rag doll on this paper, a toy that girls love to play with.
"You make it according to the picture and sell it in the shop, I believe that this month, your shop will not lose money again, and it will make a lot of money."
At first glance, Shopkeeper Li felt that the rag doll on this painting was very amazing, it was a doll he had never seen before, he couldn't help but pick up the drawing paper and look at it seriously.
"Can you make such a delicate rag doll?"
Li Xuan looked stunned, there was no plastic and ceramics in ancient times, and of course it was impossible to make a real Barbie doll, but if it was made of cloth, it should be similar.
He said: "Use a slightly harder fabric to shape the body, the outer clothes must be made of the best fabric, and the hair, which must be made with real hair, and the facial features must be made realistic."
"You can decide for yourself how many first batches you want to make, but the first rag doll must be given to me, quickly and delicately.
"Also, the price of the rag doll will be tentatively set at five taels of silver for a while."
"Five taels of silver? So expensive? Shopkeeper Li was so surprised that his eyes were about to fall out: "It's so expensive, no one will come to buy it." ”
Li Xuan snapped and put a silver ingot on the table, "This is twenty taels of silver, use the best fabric in your shop to make me a rag doll."
"For the rest of the silver, you make this kind of rag doll according to my standards, make a few if you can, and then sell it in your shop, five taels of silver each.
"If you can't sell them, then I'll give you these dolls.
"If you sell it, the money you get from these dolls will also be yours, but for every one of these dolls you sell, you will have to share half of my profits.
"How?"
Shopkeeper Li hesitated.
"It's an opportunity, it fails, you have nothing to lose.
"If it is successful, your shop will become a unique shop in the capital."
After listening to Li Xuan's words, the shopkeeper Li clapped the board and said, "Okay, the deal." ”
"In three days, I'll pick it up."
