"Alas, there are too many people who have died in the beast tide, and the old man who befriended me was buried in the mouth of the demon beast, but his descendants are still there, and I plan to bring him into Yangtian Pavilion to do things. ”

"You can do it, you just have to call the shots for such small things. Mo Chenglong said disapprovingly.

"By the way, what kind of relationship is between Cheng Shijie and the Gong family, it seems that they are very familiar!" Zhou Yang said.

"I don't know very well, he always mentions the Gong family. I heard that the Gong Dynasty, which Ziyuanzong succeeded Elder Zhong in charge of the Du Branch, is also a member of the Gong family. Mo Chenglong said.

"Oh, it seems that the Gong family has a lot to do with the Ziyuan Sect. Zhou Yang nodded.

"That's how it should be. ”

"What kind of cultivation is the head of the Gong family, and what is the strength of the family?" Because of Xiao Qing's relationship, Zhou Yang naturally had to understand it more clearly.

"The old master has died in the beast tide. The current head of the family is the queen of the beast tide, his name is Gong Luo, the fivefold realm of Tianyuan, and Gong Chao is an uncle and brother. ”

"What about Master Gong?" Zhou Yang asked again.

"This is not clear, you also know that the master has been away for a long time, and even the locals of Tuyan have rarely heard of the name of this master. ”

"Well, it is estimated that the cultivation is not low. By the way, I took a look at Zhou Tiange yesterday, and I heard the young man say that the Gong family has been left far behind by the Tong family.

"It is very likely that the Tong family is no longer comparable to the Gong family, and he has a big backer behind him. Mo Longcheng nodded.

"Zhou Tiange is well managed, not only the guys' clothes are uniform, but also the exclusive mark of the store, which is very neat. In this way, it can show the atmosphere and rules of the shop, which I can also learn from Yangtiange. Zhou Yang praised.

"Okay, I'll take care of it tomorrow. "Mo Chenglong is also very neat.

"In fact, it is better to do business, we are not doing a hammer deal, we must have the idea of long-term operation, but we do not have to fight a price war, but we must pay more attention to the quality of materials.

When I was wandering around the shop area, I noticed that there was a slight problem with the pills in some of the shops. For example, the lowest-grade Huiling Pill, the color and quality have decreased, I bought a few and tried it, at least it has reduced the medicinal effect by two percent compared to before the beast tide, but the price is still two first-grade spirit stones.

In addition, the medicinal effect of Bai Luodan in one shop has been reduced by 30 percent! The price has also been reduced by 10 percent, but the cultivators are not stupid, how can they not see it? On the surface, the cost has decreased, and they have naturally made more money, but is this really the case?

I don't think so, it depends on whether there are repeat customers, if they use it once and don't come, then their business is a failure. The cost is reduced, and the profit is not much, but the opposite. This is short-sighted and speculative behavior, which will seriously affect the reputation of the store, and in the long run, sooner or later it will be closed. ”

Regarding his experience in this day, Zhou Yang said a lot.

"Well, we've been doing that. However, there is a problem from the source of purchase, you buy genuine materials, and the price of the goods imported by others is low, and the selling price is naturally lower than yours. Some people are just greedy for cheapness, and this is the main reason why my business is sluggish. Mo Chenglong said.

"This is still a price war in disguise, it seems that the price is low, and the cultivators benefit, but in fact, on the contrary, their interests are actually damaged. We must not follow the crowd, we must have our own characteristics, and we must resolutely put an end to the sale of fake and inferior goods. Although business will be affected for a while, after a long time, the cultivators in Tu Yan City will choose to disturb them. ”

In fact, Zhou Yang's idea is very simple, that is, integrity management, people without trust, no trust, no business, this is fundamental. However, in the face of interests, many operators are often blinded by the pleasure brought by spirit stones, and regard profit as the first place.

There is nothing wrong with pursuing profits, whoever does business is to earn spirit stones, but at the same time of pursuing profits, you also have to chase faith, and with faith will bring you benefits, so faith is the premise and the foundation of earning spirit stones.

Mo Chenglong also understands this truth, but it is very difficult to really implement it, there has to be a torturous process, and he has to be prepared not to earn spirit stones for the time being, or even to lose spirit stones.

Not every merchant can survive the past or take the initiative to survive, and quick success and quick profit are common problems for many merchants.

The two discussed for a long time, and had an in-depth discussion on the management, the supply of goods, the store management, and even the psychology of the cultivator's shopping. The two expressed their own opinions, learned from each other's strengths, and both gained something.

For several days, Zhou Yang wandered around the city during the day after changing his appearance, and practiced or read various classics at night.

On this day, someone sent the style of the guy's robe, and Mo Chenglong gave it to Zhou Yang to decide.

Zhou Yang didn't care about the style of the robe, but he stared at the robe for a long time and didn't speak.

Mo Chenglong thought that Zhou Yang was not satisfied, so he asked out loud what needed to be improved.

Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment before saying, "No problem, just do it." By the way, I've also looked around a lot of shops and stalls, but I haven't seen a place that specializes in making monks' robes, so I wonder where you ordered them?"

"Making robes is just a matter of making some wages, and the cost of opening a shop is too high for most tailors to rent. However, there was a shop specializing in clothes, shoes and hats before the beast tide, but after the beast tide, it could not be found. Our robes are made to order in a small workshop. Mo Chenglong explained.

"Oh. Where do the robes and disciples of which sect and great family come from?"

"There should be a hall inside the sect that specializes in making clothes. What, do you have any ideas?" Mo Chenglong saw Zhou Yang asking about the origin of the robe and other things, and he understood his intentions.

"Some ideas are not yet mature, let me think about them carefully. ”

On the second day, Cheng Shijie came to find Zhou Yang.

Cheng Shijie, as the deacon of the torture hall and the captain of the law enforcement team, in addition to enforcing the law in the sect, can also patrol all over the city to supervise the words and deeds of the disciples in the sect and the operation of the property in the sect.

Today, he took someone to inspect here, came to see by the way, and brought Zhou Yang a package, which Uncle Zhong asked him to hand over.

It happened that Zhou Yang wanted to find Cheng Shijie to help deal with Xiao Qing's affairs, so he pulled Cheng Shijie to invite him to drink.

Cheng Shijie is on business, and there are several law enforcement disciples with him, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time. Zhou Yang made a long story short and told Xiao Qing about it.

Cheng Shijie thought that Zhou Yang had something important to talk to him, but when he heard that it was such a trivial matter, he agreed and said that there would be news tomorrow.

Zhou Yang wanted to give him the spirit stone, but he glared at him, and Zhou Yang had no choice but to take it back.

Cheng Shijie acted vigorously and resolutely, fulfilled the contract, and brought a teenager on the second day, who was Xiao Qing.

Not to mention, as his name suggests, Xiao Qing has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, white and clean, but his clothes are shabby, and he is still a little timid when he sees people.

It's no wonder that even the young guys in the store are at the peak of Kaiyuan's cultivation, and they are regarded as immortals by Xiao Qing, and it is natural to be in awe.

Cheng Shijie brought him back to the sect.

Zhou Yang ordered someone to take a set of guys' robes for Xiao Qing to wear, took him back to the backyard, and explained again, only saying that it was a friend of Xiao's shopkeeper, so that Xiao Qing would be a buddy in Yangtian Pavilion in the future, and there would be monthly rules to take.

Xiao Qing was naturally grateful and kowtowed again and again.

This can be described as a leap into the dragon gate for him, not only to get rid of the status of a slave, but also to enter the immortal's shop as a companion, which is really a supreme honor.

For three days in a row, Zhou Yang was still wandering around Tuyan City, but the focus was on the daily necessities of the cultivators.

On this day, Liu Menglong came to the store and negotiated with Zhou Yang for nearly an hour, and then left a contract and took away 15,000 spirit stones.

This was not unexpected by Zhou Yang, he could also see that everyone has their own ambitions and cannot be forced to stay. In Lingshi to earn, people are naturally willing to play with you, but no one wants to mix in the loss-making business.

That's not bad, it's good to get together and disperse.

After all, at the beginning, Liu and Liang helped him a lot, and they couldn't ask others to have the same business philosophy as themselves, so when Liu Menglong proposed to embezzle the spirit stone, Zhou Yang agreed.

However, Liu Menglong is quite particular, after discussing with Liang Sanli, he proposed to Zhou Yang that the two of them each draw out 15,000 spirit stones, and each of them will hand over half of the shares to Zhou Yang.

Before, Liang Sanli had already taken away the spirit stone above. That is to say, up to now, Liu and Liang hold a total of 40% of Yangtian Pavilion's shares, Zhou Yang and Zhong Pengfei hold a total of 60%, and Zhou Yang has full authority to handle Yangtiange's affairs, and Liu and Liang are not involved.

Zhou Yang understood that this was Liu Menglong's idea, he still had some rules for doing things, and according to Liang Sanli's words, he would definitely sell Yangtian Pavilion first, and then distribute spirit stones according to shares and then disperse.

But Liu Menglong knew very well that Zhou Yang would never agree to sell Yangtian Pavilion, and he also understood what role Zhou Yang played in the development of Yangtian Pavilion, and he even almost took his life.

Therefore, Liu Menglong meant to gradually withdraw the shares, firstly, it also gave Zhou Yang face, and secondly, it would not force Yangtian Pavilion to a dead end.

Zhou Yang knew this, and he still appreciated Liu Menglong's approach.

As for when the two of them proposed to completely withdraw their shares, they went with him, and I agreed to mention you and find a way to get together the spirit stones for you. If you don't mention it, I won't urge it, and the business will not be done, but the favor is still there.

On the second day, Zhou Yang returned to Anping City.

He continued to wander around the shop area of Xicheng during the day, and returned to Lingtian to have a drink with Tiehu and the others at night.

The meat brought back from the Blue Beast Mountain was almost eaten, but the heads of the grey carp were preserved.

Recently, Zhou Yang's footprints have spread all over the four areas of Anping City, and he has obtained a lot of information, both from the four major factions and from the business side.

The relationship between the four factions is more complex and delicate, but the division of camps is becoming more and more obvious.

Tongzhou Commercial Bank and Cangbeast Palace have been completely united, and they have also attracted some small sects, and their power is growing day by day. This party's attitude towards Wanjianmen is also very consistent.

And the Three Holy Sect and the Xuanfu Sect are the same, trying their best to gather large and small forces, and making every effort to expand their strength, from secretly supporting the Anpinghe Five Elements Sect to gradually turning to the open.

The reason why it is complicated is that there are still business contacts between the two factions, especially the spirit beast business of the Cangbeast Palace.
