Chapter 97 Ming Xiu Plank Road
Knowing that the Li family firm produced soap on a large scale, Jia Cong finally couldn't sit still and issued a series of orders to launch a counterattack against the Li family firm.
In front of Jia Cong's shop, a banner was pulled up, which read: "In order to give back to our customers, the store has launched a 'preferential reward' activity, buy ten pieces of soap and get one piece of soap, buy more and give more." โ
There are also two clever tricks that advertise loudly in front of the door and solicit customers.
At the same time, a group of brokers recruited by Zhang Fu in advance also began to be publicized all over the city.
Jia Cong found Jia Lian again, borrowed the batch of brokers in his hand, and temporarily promoted himself for a few days.
Under the publicity of a large number of personnel, it only took one day for the entire Shenjing City to know the news that the Jia family's soap was bought ten and one was given free.
For a while, the store was crowded, and 10,000 bars of soap were sold on the first day.
The next few days were still hot, and there was an endless stream of people who came to buy soap.
Such a big movement also alarmed the people of the Jia family, Jia Lian, and Xue Pan visited one after another.
"Brother Cong, you are really generous, will you lose money by doing this?"
"Yes, Brother Cong, is it worth it for you to do this?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Two brothers, please sit down, although I lose a little, but I can't lose much, I want to make the Li family firm can't sell a piece of soap, dare to steal my formula, how can I make them pay a price." โ
Xue Pan suddenly said: "So that's the case, I said why some time ago, three soap sellers suddenly appeared, which are exactly the same as the soap of the Cong brothers, and I was still wondering at that time, this Li family is too inferior, right?" โ
"Brother Xue, I heard that your Xue family has shops in more than a dozen provinces? Are you interested in working with your younger brother? Sell soap all over the country. โ
Xue Pan's eyes lit up when he heard this, this is a good idea, if soap doesn't make money, the Li family won't be bent on snatching the formula, there are so many shops in their own house, if they are all spread out, it will definitely make money.
"Brother Cong, my brother is very interested in cooperating with you, I don't know how Brother Cong wants to cooperate?"
Jia Cong thought for a while and said: "Brother Xue, you first go to understand the cost of the Li family's soap, and discuss it with your aunt and Sister Bao, if you want to do it, how much profit can be made from a piece of soap, and I will come to the door to discuss with you in detail in a few days." โ
Xue Pan glanced at Jia Cong, nodded and said, "It's okay, then my brother is waiting for Brother Cong at home." โ
Jia Lian also spoke: "Brother Cong, if there are good things, you can't forget your brother, my brother also has a lot of shops." โ
"Since the second brother has spoken, the younger brother can't refuse, I can't sell it alone when the capital is so big, how about I give you the same price when I negotiate the price with Brother Xue?"
Jia Lian said with a smile: "Brother Cong said to do what you do, brother listens to you, anyway, you won't let your brother suffer." โ
As soon as the two were sent away, Jia Yu also sent someone to call, and Jia Cong came to the East Road Courtyard again.
When Jia Yu saw Jia Cong coming in, he couldn't help but sigh, he could really toss now, every time he came back, he didn't make any movement, it was not over.
"Why are you kid making such a big move, and what do you want to do?"
Jia Cong bowed his hand: "Master, Li Rui of the Li family firm asked people to block me on the road last time, I said that I would not care about it anymore, but he let people run to my house, stole the soap formula, and produced it on a large scale, I want him to smash the soap in his hand, and he can't sell a piece." โ
"I remember you said that a piece of soap earns more than a penny of silver, and ten pieces of soap only earn more than one or two, don't you lose money if you buy ten and get one free now?"
"Master, you are not an outsider, and I won't hide it from you, I have improved the formula again, and I barely lost money, so this time I will carry it with the Li family for a while."
Jia Yu scolded with a smile: "You kid, you are really a chicken thief, the recipe that Li Rui stole is the old recipe, right?" โ
Jia Cong said with a smile: "The master is really clever, he is like a god, it is true, I deliberately asked him to steal that recipe, just to wait for today." โ
Jia Yu pondered for a while and said, "There should be someone behind the Li family, can you fight them alone?" โ
"I naturally can't fight them on the official face, I just sell my own things cheaply, the government can't control it, as for the black hands behind my back, I'm not afraid at all now, the more I don't pay attention to the rules, the more I like it."
"If this continues, it is estimated that someone will come forward to make peace, and when the time comes, you should accept it when you see it, and don't mess with people who shouldn't be messed with because of a little thing."
Jia Cong nodded and said, "Let's see the situation when the time comes, but I will remember the master's words." โ
ยทยทยทยทยทยท
A few days have passed, and not a single piece of soap has been sold on the Li family firm's side.
Everyone in the Li family was sitting in the lobby, looking at each other, not knowing how to deal with this situation?
Li Qing is Li Rui's Laozi and the helmsman of the Li family's firm, he glanced at the listless crowd and said: "Everyone, that kid from the Jia family, suddenly made such a show, and we can't sell a piece of soap."
This time, we have produced more than 100,000 pieces of soap, and the cost alone is more than 300,000 taels of silver, so we can't let it smash into our hands, right? If you have any ideas, please speak up. โ
Li Chen is the eldest son of the Li family firm, Li Rui's eldest brother, seeing that no one spoke, he stood up and said: "Father, that kid's slogan is 'preferential big reward' activity, it shouldn't last long, right?" โ
"How long you want to do it, it depends on what the kid means, what if he keeps doing it? Are we just waiting? โ
"Father, why don't you wait, although this soap makes money, but whether there is it or not, it will not have a big impact on the Li family, the price that kid sells is cheaper than what we make, isn't he afraid of dying?"
Li Rui also spoke: "That kid is selling at a price that is much cheaper than what we do, it's better for us to buy him ourselves, you say that we have bought all of them now, and we have bought all the kid's goods, how about we sell them at a high price?" โ
Li Qing looked at his second son, he did it, he didn't approve of him doing this, but this kid just didn't listen, this kid went too smoothly and was too proud.
"This is also a way, I'm afraid that his cost is cheaper than ours, and he keeps selling, do we still keep buying? It's too costly. โ
Li Chen asked suspiciously: "Father, do you mean that kid has two formulas, and the second brother got another one?" The recipe is not the same? โ
Li Rui was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "It's impossible, there was just this recipe in the ingredient room at that time, and it was still locked in the box, and there were a lot of ingredients in it, and they also moved back a box, which was exactly the same as the recipe." โ
