Chapter 28: Price Wars
"What are we going to do?" Zhang Fugui's gaze was firmly locked on Li Changan.
"For side dishes, there is a spicy tang to counteract, and there should be no problem for the time being." Li Changan tried to calm himself down.
"As for the price, we can't go down." Li Changan got up, "Tonight, we will start to change the wine, and we will have a new wine and a big reward, just for three days." ”
"With a reason, if you don't change the original price, there will be no big problem, and when there is no reward, the price will naturally recover."
"I'll go back and push the wine over first, and the rest will depend on the situation of the dinner market tonight."
Zhang Fugui pulled Li Changan into the corner, "Chang'an, you give me an explanation, how sure are you?" ”
"I really can't go wrong with this little wine shop, there are more than forty mouthfuls waiting for this to eat."
"I originally wanted to make more money with Malatang, but there can't be a problem no matter what."
"You see what I mean, right?"
Li Changan was stunned for a moment, more than forty? There are so many people in your family?
However, he still nodded solemnly, "Boss Zhang, don't worry, since you believe me, I won't embarrass you." ”
"Give me five days, if it doesn't work, you can stop the spicy hot first, or even sell the base."
"Okay." Boss Zhang patted Li Changan on the shoulder.
Dinner of the day,
Li Chang'an, who was observing the business situation in Zhang Ji Liquor Store, was pulled away by Liu Zhiyin and Xiaofang who came in a hurry.
"Something happened in Chang'an, and the stall in Sanyangmen was smashed."
"What's going on?" Li Changan's heart jumped, "No one was hurt, right?" ”
"That's not true, the person who smashed the stall has been arrested, but today's business can't be done." Xiao Fang's face was pale, obviously frightened, and there were obvious tear stains on her face.
Leave other places aside for the time being, but she and Xiaolan are in Sanyangmen, which is the most prosperous place in Linxian County, and naturally it is also the place with the most officials and officials, how can anyone dare to do it?
It's just a rule.
When Li Changan arrived there, Xiaolan was cleaning up the debris on the ground.
The boiler was mashed, and the floor was full of scattered skewers, and the fragrant soup poured on the ground, which could be smelled from afar.
"Sister Xiaolan, how are you?" Li Changan hurriedly stepped forward to help clean up, and at the same time turned his head sideways.
Xiaolan's eyes were red, and she bit her lip tightly.
Liu Zhiyin hugged Xiaolan, Xiaolan couldn't hold back anymore, she cried loudly, and big tears rolled down.
There were onlookers all around, and the people who were originally going to come over to buy Malatang could only shake their heads helplessly at this time.
"Where did the ruffians come from? How dare you make trouble in Sanyangmen? ”
"It's really dirty, someone must be behind it."
"The business of red and spicy hot eyes can be seen at a glance. It doesn't hurt people, it only breaks the boiler, which is obviously for the spicy hot. ”
……
The four of them packed up their things and slowly walked back with the cart.
"Those ruffians and hooligans have no choice, they can only be closed for a few days at most." Liu Zhiyin said worriedly, and his bright eyes were full of gloom at this time.
"Sister Xiaolan, Sister Xiaofang, I haven't been out of the stall in the past few days, and the province has been smashed again, these guys won't give up." Li Changan said.
"Is it really what they say? Someone is jealous of our business? Xiaolan's voice was a little hoarse, and she even twitched from time to time.
I was really frightened, everything was fine, everyone was queuing, but as soon as a few people sat down, they directly flipped the table and smashed the boiler.
Fortunately, their target is not people, otherwise they would have to cause human life.
"Someone is eyeing Malatang, that's why there is such a thing." Li Changan nodded, feeling guilty, if it weren't for Malatang, the two sisters would not have encountered such a danger,
"The two sisters can continue to sell rock sugar gourds, and when the matter is resolved, it's not too late to come out and set up a stall."
Li Changan did not go home directly, but after sending Xiaolan Xiaofang home, he comforted a few more words, and then took Liu Zhiyin home.
"Sister-in-law, you just stay at home these days and try not to go out." Li Changan set up a simple wooden bed in the study of the north house.
"Erlang, ...... are you?" A touch of red flew on Liu Zhiyin's fair face.
Li Changan didn't raise his head, and he didn't notice Liu Zhiyin's coquettishness now, "It's not been peaceful these days, I'm worried that someone will climb over the wall again, and it will be safer for my sister-in-law to sleep here." ”
Liu Zhiyin blinked his eyes and let out a soft "oh".
The candles in the room flickered, and from time to time sparks popped out.
Liu Zhiyin hugged the quilt to make the bed and said worriedly, "Erlang, if it's too dangerous, let's not do it, right?" ”
"If this thing is done, I can bring my little sister back, so I have to do it." Li Changan said, "For the time being, I haven't found another way. ”
"Then you have to pay attention to safety."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will stay in Zhang Ji Liquor Store, there will be no danger." Li Changan placed two mouse traps at the door.
"Hmm......" Liu Zhiyin only showed one head, tilted his head, and looked at the bed on the other side through the curtain, his eyes full of worry.
……
Price wars are always one of the most direct and effective means.
But Li Changan couldn't do it.
Zhang Ji Liquor Store is only a middle and lower level liquor store in Linxian County.
In the face of the joint efforts of so many restaurants and wine shops, the other party has come down, and Zhang Ji Wine Shop can't afford it.
The next day, the nearby restaurants and restaurants reduced their prices by one percent on the basis of the original price reduction.
The number of restaurants and restaurants has grown from a dozen to 28.
Zhang Ji Liquor Store relied on the promotion of new wine, coupled with the better quality of the new wine than before, and the blessing of Malatang, which barely managed to maintain its business, but the number of people was still a little less.
After all, most of the people who patronize the liquor stores are walking through the streets and alleys, and where to go cheaper.
"Da Liu gave the news, and someone sent them a message." Boss Zhang frowned, sat on the stool and drank stuffy wine,
"There must be a big restaurant in the back, otherwise it would not be possible to be so united, they want the base recipe."
Zhang Fugui's expression was clear at a glance, the situation was getting more and more tense, there were more and more people joining forces, and the pressure was too great.
It's only the next day, and the other party's methods are so aggressive.
If Zhang Kee Liquor continues to resist stubbornly, the other party may continue to reduce prices.
At that time, even if there is Malatang, it will not be enough.
Li Changan's thoughts turned sharply in his heart, and he said, "The Malatang stall outside has also been smashed, and if the problem is not solved, Sister Xiaolan and her sisters will not continue to set up stalls in the past few days." ”
"It is precisely because there is no Malatang outside that our business can be maintained."
Zhang Fugui stood up uneasily, feeling that there were ants crawling all over his body, frizzy and uncomfortable.
"Chang'an, what should I do next?"
"Wait."
"Wait? Are we waiting for the other side to kill us? Zhang Fugui was anxious, "Lao Gu, that guy is too, yesterday he was like he lost his mind, and he simply won't come today." ”
Nothing has gone wrong though.
But he is well aware that the liquor store has now reached its limit.
The quality of the wine is getting better and better, but the price has not changed, and because of the big reward for the new wine, the income has decreased.
Obviously, there is also Malatang, but the business is still the same.
The business of side dishes has deteriorated a lot.
If you can maintain the status quo, you are actually losing.
As long as the other party lowers a little more, it will become the last straw that crushes the camel.
Zhang Kee Wine Shop will really be finished.
"Boss Zhang, don't worry, I still have hole cards in my hand, the reason why I am waiting is to know which restaurant is the mastermind behind the scenes, so that I can have a target." Li Changan hurriedly persuaded.
"Otherwise, if you smash the hole cards directly now, it won't play much role, and you have to make a final decision."
Zhang Fugui walked around, his impatience overflowing, "Okay, then I'll ask again and find which big restaurant it is." ”
"Boss Zhang, it's best to find twenty more families who are not involved in this alliance, they will be the best allies."
"I'll look for it." Zhang Fugui only left one guy to watch the counter, and the rest of the guys were sent out to inquire about the news, and he left in a hurry.
Li Changan asked his buddy for a pen and paper, and sat at the table to paint.
The guy guarding the counter looked at it and could only barely make out that it was a strange ...... Wok.
