Chapter 409: Harmony Makes Money
In the same way, this boss has good skills in making yellow paper, and the local Taoist temple in Quanzhou will of course recognize his signboard. It's like a century-old store with a conscience, everyone recognizes its quality, and they will continue to patronize it.
Quality is king and will never go out of style, but many people have not yet realized it, thinking that the shortage of two customers has been driven away, and there will be the next batch of customers. As everyone knows, under word of mouth, your behavior has long been understood by customers, and no one patronizes it, and your business will naturally plummet.
Don't look at the business of this small shop on weekdays, but he has so many orders for Taoist temples and temples, which is enough to live a very nourishing life. It is the previous "Jubao Zhai", which seems to be infinitely beautiful, but in fact, compared with the previous turnover, I don't know how much it has fallen. Of course, this is just an asymmetrical comparison, after all, the antique industry has always been like this, if you can deceive, you can deceive, and it is the eyesight of both sides that is exquisite.
Take the previous incident as an example, if Tang Chen's eyesight was not good, wouldn't he not know the treasures when he saw them?
Therefore, antiques are a test of the eyesight of both sides, and whoever has bad eyesight will suffer.
But other industries are different, and word of mouth is quite important.
Seeing that Tang Chen had all agreed, Zeng Lao naturally wouldn't refute: "Of course I can trust you, it was just a joke before...... I don't know how much of this yellow paper you have, boss?"
"There are a lot of goods, but they are all pre-ordered. In this way, if you have a need, you can place an order with me......" The boss is also real, "Now, I will give you a piece of paper at most, and more will not work." ”
"One order is five hundred pieces...... "Zeng Lao calculated, "that's four thousand yuan?"
The boss smiled: "Of course, there are some discounts for buying more, just give three thousand eight!"
Zeng Lao couldn't help but be a little surprised, and said: "If you do this business, it's easy to lose money!"
"Win-win cooperation can last for a long time!" the boss obviously has his own business experience, "If you don't even let a little profit, it's too impersonal." What's more, we are doing business, not a one-shot deal. I wish you could order my yellow paper again, and I would make more!"
Zeng Lao laughed and said, "Boss, you are right!"
After paying the money happily, Tang Chen took the yellow paper neatly rolled up with old newspapers, and still felt a little emotion in his heart. It's not that there is no way to make money in the world, it just depends on whether you are willing to do it. It seems that this method of dipping rice paper can be done by ordinary people, but who would have thought of it?
"By the way, boss, do you have cinnabar here?"
Tang Chen asked suddenly.
"Cinnabar, are you really going to draw talismans?" This boss is also very sensitive to this kind of thing, and he carefully looked at Zeng Lao and Tang Chen, and found that they didn't look like those Taoist priests in his impression?
Tang Chen smiled and didn't answer, just staring at this boss.
"If you have cinnabar, I have it here, but the quality is not high, and I don't dare to sell too much to you. And you also know that cinnabar is actually forbidden to be sold, after all, cinnabar is a traditional Chinese medicine, and it is poisonous......" The boss was very sincere, and he said his bottom at once, "Besides, the cinnabar I have here is all cinnabar produced in other places, not cinnabar from Chenzhou, so ...... You know that......"
"Cinnabar?"
This was not something that Zeng Lao knew, he could only look at Tang Chen for help.
Tang Chen smiled and said: "Cinnabar is abundant in the Yuanjiang River Basin in Xiangxi, with good quality, this area was called Chenzhou in ancient times, so the cinnabar produced in Chenzhou is also called Chensha." In the forties of the last century, in the Chongqing and Wu Han generations, a synthetic mercury sulfide called cinnabar was slowly synthesized. In this way, the meaning of cinnabar has changed, in ancient times, refers to high-quality cinnabar, is the crystallization of natural mercury sulfide, after the forties of the last century, the prescription refers to the cinnabar is synthetic mercury sulfide, synthetic cinnabar is not granular, presenting a muscle fiber crystal, like beef muscle fibers. ”
"This little brother is very knowledgeable!" the boss praised, "The cinnabar I have here must be natural cinnabar, but it is not produced in Chenzhou...... To tell you the truth, now Xinhuang in Hunan Province and Tongren in Guizhou Province are the main producing areas, and the cinnabar here is from Sichuan Province, not Hunan Province, nor Guizhou Province, so there are some slight differences in quality. It would be fine if ordinary people drew talismans, but if you buy such expensive yellow paper, it will be a bit out of pocket with this kind of cinnabar. ”
"So that's the case!" Zeng Lao sighed, "It seems that each line has its own doorway!"
Tang Chen smiled and said nothing, isn't this obvious? As the so-called interlacing is like a mountain, it is not difficult to see people carrying the burden, and they can carry the burden and break the spine. It was as if Tang Chen was listening to Zeng Lao commenting on antiques, and he was confused. What kind of glaze, pulp, style, shape...... The head is going to be big. The reverse is the same, although Zeng Lao understands the terms in Feng Shui, but when he goes to the field to investigate, his eyes are black, and he can't see anything. In fact, this is the so-called interlacing like a mountain, and the trick is in the hands of the master.
If Master hadn't led you through the door, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been able to learn anything from all kinds of specious books all your life. Therefore, since ancient times, there has been a saying that "the master leads the door, and the cultivation is in the individual". Don't look at "cultivation in the individual", in fact, "the master leads the door" is the most important, you have not crossed this threshold, you are still a layman. This is also the reason why so many "Mr. Halfway" are denounced as liars, they themselves know a lot about Feng Shui, how to solve the problem together? Most likely, it is to follow the classic Feng Shui case.
If you're lucky, you'll be able to get away with it, but if you're unlucky, you'll have to fail.
Therefore, in most cases, these "halfway gentlemen" are fooling their employers and trying to deceive them. As the saying goes, it's not a matter for a feng shui guy to lie to you for ten or eight years. Now that I think about it, this is really the case, these "halfway gentlemen" just blindly said, "This is a treasure of feng shui, what will happen if the ancestors are buried here......"
But ten or eight years have passed, you have neither made a fortune nor become rich, and even lived a year after year, until this time, you understand that these "Mr. Halfway" are lying to you.
If it is a real treasure of feng shui, it will be fulfilled very quickly. It will be fulfilled in as little as 100 days and as much as half a year. This is also why "Mr. Halfway" barely eats with a mouthful of food, while the real feng shui master makes a lot of money. In a word, this is the difference between the master leading the door, without the master leading the door, you are still a "layman".
Zeng Lao understood that he had shortcomings in feng shui supplies, and he was an out-and-out "layman", but fortunately, he was still following Tang Chen.
Tang Chen thought for a moment and said, "Chuansha is indeed ...... The quality is a little poor, or expensive sand, Hunan sand is a little better. ”
The boss smiled: "That's right, the cinnabar I have here is sold to people who are not in high demand, and there are not many stocks." If you want to buy cinnabar, the ones across the door from me may have cinnabar. ”
