Chapter 59 Between Gains and Losses
At this time, one of the people stood up, bowed to Yan Kaiting who was seated in a decent manner, and said, "My subordinates will report to the lord of the house on the preparations for the trade fair." ”
That person is handsome and elegant, although he is young, he has a calm bearing in his bones, which makes people feel convincing easily, it is Hu Donglai.
Among the chief stewards, Hu Donglai is the youngest, but he has been practicing with the old mansion master for several years, and his skills are not bad. Although it is not more prestigious than a few senior stewards, it is also quite a weighty existence.
Hu Donglai picked up a stack of copywriters with a thickness of nearly one foot from the side of his seat, put it on the desk next to the upper throne, and then stood there and talked eloquently.
Rather than being organized by a fixed organization, it is somewhat like a local festival that takes place at a time that is customary in each major state. Each city, town, and trade point participates in itself, which is the so-called branch venue, and the main venue is uncertain every year, and which one has the ability to take out a sufficient number of rare treasures to hold the "Treasure Meeting" is the main venue of the year.
The so-called rare treasures are not only in the literal sense, the accepted standard is that there is at least one spiritual soldier and one spiritual weapon, as well as a number of soldiers and weapons at the "to" and "zhen" levels, or resources of the same level.
For Beiyongzhou, where the monk sect is in decline, it is not easy for ordinary towns to meet the standard of "Treasure Society". Yujing is such a large city, in the past 20 years, it has only been held three times with the strength of the whole city, and even in some years, the entire region will have byes.
In the south, it was a different story, the competition for the host venue was very fierce, especially the location of the four major sects, and the number of "Zhen" level weapons was not even included in the "Zhen Won Society" standard.
It is the 60th birthday of the old city lord, and his sons, nephews, apprentices and grandchildren are working hard to hold a big show, and the surrounding towns will naturally not grab the limelight.
Wei Qingcheng has made a lot of money for this, and the top-notch spirit weapons can't get more, so they work resources and second-level weapons. Judging from the information revealed so far, the sources of all kinds of goods alone are twice as many as in previous years, and many of them are polar specialties from other directions, and they are dazzling, even if they have no cultivation value, they are also rare toys.
The main venue is large in scale and high in quality, which can attract more businessmen to Yongzhou, the market is prosperous, and the business routes are expanded, which is beneficial to the overall environment of the entire trade fair. However, it is a little embarrassing for major towns that want to participate in both the main venue and the branch venues, and the conventional goods in the past look shabby, and their flagship products may be lowered by one or even two or three grades.
"Heavenly Creation" has also encountered this problem.
Hu Donglai's information was collected completely, the analysis was clear, the statement was straightforward, and all the stewards listened with solemn faces. Word-of-mouth is a trickle-down confluence, especially when the difference between quality and price is not obvious, and wind reviews become very important.
After talking about the general trend of the trade fair, Hu Donglai next put forward the "Tiangong Kaiwu" participation plan, he opened the one-foot-high copywriting book by one, and analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the products and sales expectations one by one.
In the end, he concluded that the craftsman should make use of the limited booth to promote the embryo making products that have achieved great industry advantages in the near future, and the customers are not traditional merchants, but the monk craftsman's house, and strive to win more and more stable large-scale orders.
This plan, for the entire craftsman's house, must be happy for some branches, and some branches are worried. However, for all the stewards present, whether they agree with Hu Donglai's conclusions and proposals or not, they have to agree with his meticulous, detailed and well-founded posture. In comparison, the head of the house who sat on the throne was a little bleak.
When the old mansion master was alive, such a comparison appeared in the hearts of the stewards more than once, and now of course the lord and his subordinates can no longer be compared, but there are still many people who look at Yan Kaiting.
Yan Kaiting leaned slightly on his cheeks with one hand, but he didn't look drowsy when he heard it.
He looked at Hu Donglai and asked, "Are you finished?" Seeing Hu Donglai nodding, he glanced at the main hall and said, "Who has anything to say?"
The stewards have already discussed privately for a round, and now they are talking to each other again, and the dividing line between the different factions or alliances is quite clear.
Yan Kaiting was still looking at everyone lazily, but his eyes were deep, and from some angles, he looked more like a fierce beast waiting for an opportunity to attack.
"The subordinates have something to say. "An elderly steward stood up, he was in charge of quality control in the main mansion workshop," what steward Hu said made sense, but in the final plan, the proportion of finished products launched by the craftsman's mansion was too small. Although embryo making is lucrative, the buyers of embryos can only be those few masters, even if they open up new roads, they are limited, and we can't ignore old customers for this. ”
He Qi'an, the chief steward sitting on Hu Donglai's right side, stood up and said, "Wu Lao's words are wrong. No matter how financially and influential ordinary merchants can compare with the Monk Craftsman's Mansion, we are the characters on the brand in Beiyongzhou, and looking at Kyushu, it is nothing. To be able to become a regular supplier of those few companies, the profit is not only huge, but ...... Double!"
The elder steward frowned and said, "The embryo is actually limited in variety, so there is no need to occupy so many booths." And it has always been necessary to take the big orders of those companies, but not only the samples are useful, but the work is under the table. ”
Hu Donglai stood up and said gently, "It is precisely because it is not easy to fight for that the first impression is important." Rather than letting the lack of features distract the buyer, it is better to reduce the products that have a fixed customer source and highlight the products we want to launch. ”
The older steward was obviously not convinced, and the wrinkles between his brows did not spread, but he didn't seem to think of any good words, and he was silent for a while.
The whispering of the stewards below did not stop, and Steward Ni, who was talking about similar problems with fellow craftsmen before the meeting, heard this, so he suddenly said to the woodsman, "I see." ”
Master Lin let out a sigh of relief and said, "You understand now, right? For the head of the family, it's just a matter of earning more and earning less, no, what is in front of you is earning more." It doesn't have much impact on a branch like yours, even if you recruit novices to change equipment, you can adjust it slowly, but we have to think about it, and the way out in three or five years. ”
At this time, Yan Kaiting, who was seated, said lightly, "This is going to change the direction of the entire craftsman's mansion?"
As soon as these words came out, the entire main hall was silent. Some stewards are already vaguely aware, and some stewards have not thought of this layer before, and they suddenly realized it at this moment. No matter which one it is, you can realize the weight of Yan Kaiting's words, and decide the direction of the house is not a trivial matter?!
Hu Donglai's demeanor was calm, and he bowed slightly to Yan Kaiting and said, "No, the direction of the craftsman's mansion is a big matter, how can it be a subordinate to the next manager, and you can do one or two things." The subordinates have always followed the teachings of the old mansion master. ”
Hu Donglai's words are hidden in the needle, and he can taste a lot of things when he understands it carefully.
It's a pity that Yan Kaiting didn't mean to chew the words at all, his expression was still indifferent, and at first glance he didn't know if he had listened carefully to Hu Donglai's words, "Okay, you will arrange half of all the booths, and I will arrange half of them, so it's decided." ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, Yan Kaiting's decision was simple and rude, and there was no discipline at all, like the result of a vindictive.
Qi Xiong objected first, "Mansion Master, Steward Hu's plan has taken a lot of effort, if you don't agree, you can also propose to modify the inappropriate places, so directly reject...... Not so good. ”
Yan Kaiting looked at him strangely and said, "Who said I said no? Isn't this a cheap way to share half of his power?" He "hey" and said, "Or do you think that I don't have enough power to share half of his power, and I need to give up all my powers?"
This is said in a weird way, but it is not easy to accept.
Yan Kaiting suddenly smiled and said, "Or do you want to learn from Yujing's public action alliance and vote?"
Hu Donglai interjected at this time, "The lord of the mansion laughed, of course follow what you said." ”
If Hu Donglai can't see that Yan Kaiting is different at this moment, he will be too dull. In the past, he was able to unite several chief stewards and squeeze Yan to hold a trial, which was to deceive him into not understanding business affairs and government affairs on the one hand, and on the other hand, the coalition found common interests.
Now that Yan Kaiting is looming, several times it seems that the means are rough, but in fact, he just stepped on the key point, and Hu Donglai is too big to be suspicious. Whether Yan Kaiting is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, or there is a master behind him, Hu Donglai has a natural weakness in their identity, and it is definitely not the best policy to fight hard.
Moreover, Hu Donglai knew that his plan would not benefit everyone of the stewards present. The stewards who came out to question just now are making traditional products, and there are also those young generation of foreigner craftsmen and craftsmen, whose qualifications are too shallow to speak, and really giving everyone the opportunity to speak freely is to weaken the right to speak of their few big stewards in disguise.
Hu Donglai said so, and there were many people in the chief stewards who were not convinced, but they lost the reason for the difficulty for a while, and the rest of the stewards had no objection.
The meeting ended faster than ever, even sloppy, and when the stewards dispersed, they were still a little confused and didn't know what to do next. Some of them were nimble-minded, but when they walked out of the courtyard gate, they suddenly figured it out, "Isn't there only two ways to do this?" One is on the side of the steward and the other is on the side of the house master.
After everyone dispersed, Yan Kaiting was still sitting in his position and did not move, and only Hu Donglai was still in the main hall still cleaning up his large pile of copywriting. The servants looked in the courtyard, but no one dared to come in. No summons is allowed at the time of the council, and servants are not allowed to enter the house.
Yan Kaiting first broke the silence, "Some money has been made, and it is easy to be controlled by others. ”
Hu Donglai has recently begun to get used to the changes in Yan's court, but after listening to such a straightforward sentence, his fingers still trembled. He didn't look up, closed the open page of the last volume, and said, "The art of refining weapons can be transformed, and the way of management is not inherent, when you are not strong enough, joining the strong is also a way." Business is not cultivation, you don't have to do everything yourself. ”
Yan Kaiting said slowly, "You are wrong, three thousand avenues, different paths to the same end." There is no difference between business and cultivation, and those who take advantage of the situation will have the risk of being eaten by the situation, and of course it is not everyone who will suffer. ”
Hu Donglai said, "In this world, some people gain and some people lose. ”
Yan Kaiting squinted at him for a moment, and said lightly, "The power is given to you, you can do it." After that, without waiting for Hu Dong to reply, his body moved, and he disappeared from the main hall.
