Chapter 115: Shopping malls are like battlefields
"It's called casting a long line to catch a big fish!" Liu Qi said with a smile: "The same is true for trading, without investment, how can you harvest, if you don't sprinkle bait, how can you catch a big fish?" ”
Xi Guan still sighed a little painfully: "But this investment is inevitably too big." ”
Liu Qi said: "Shuijing Villa, Wolong Caolu, are all places where Jingzhou celebrities gather, and they are all Hongru, and at the same time as sending furniture, the signboard of Hanxingtang will be played out, and even if other families follow suit in the future, the card is far inferior to Hanxingtang." ”
"I see, teachable!" Thorough practice.
Only then did I understand that Liu Qi sent Mr. Shuijing and Zhuge Liang and others furniture, not only to make friends with celebrities and celebrities, but also to win the reputation of Corporal Jingxian.
On the other hand, in order to borrow the name of these people and spread the Hanxingtang, in the future, the wealthy families of Jingzhou will only recognize the furniture of the Hanxingtang.
I can't help but sigh in my heart, sure enough, reading is better than doing business, as a contemporary celebrity, just with the help of the various benefits received by celebrities, there are countless people.
But vice versa, if it's nameless and no good, who the fuck will send you something?
The people of officialdom and Shilin are sophisticated, and they are similar to shopping malls.
After thinking about it, I heard Liu Qi say again: "The shopping mall is like a battlefield, if you only care about the immediate interests, it will be difficult to achieve a big thing after all." ”
No wonder people say that the Xi brothers are not as good as Xi Yuan, just this courage and vision are much worse.
In the future, many things will depend on this brother-in-law, and Liu Qi will also have to carry one or two.
Xi Guan scratched his head and smiled: "I haven't been in charge of accounts since I was a child, I'm used to it!" ”
Liu Qi smiled and said, "Aren't you Xi Gua."
Is it? ”
Xi Guan hugged his fists and said: "The eldest prince Wen Taowuluo, we will be a family in the future, and I hope to give me more advice." ”
Liu Qi nodded and said: "But you don't have to be too distressed, this matter may not be all losses, there are still benefits in the meantime." ”
Xi Guan hurriedly asked, "What benefits?" ”
Liu Qi asked: "Those big businessmen, all of them have thousands of dollars in their pockets, and their families have mountains of money and grain, even rotting and rusting, and they don't have to worry about eating and drinking, what do they lack the most?" ”
"Name!" Xi Guan said without thinking: "People are fame and fortune, although businessmen have a lot of wealth, but their status is low, they are despised, and it is difficult for them to buy a court." ”
Being in a shopping mall, Xi Guan felt the deepest about this, the wealthy family used the side branch to build some industries, and most of the children sought fame, but the merchants had no way out, and it was difficult to change their background.
Liu Qi smiled: "In this case, why not give them a chance to become famous?" If the things used by those great Confucian celebrities are auctioned, they may be able to pay off. ”
Xi Guan wondered: "What is an auction?" ”
"The highest price wins!" Liu Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Brother, think about it, if it is a bookcase used by Song Zhong and Sima Hui, how much is it worth?" ”
"Shhh Xi Guan's eyes widened suddenly, and he gave Liu Qi a thumbs up: "If these things used by Confucianism can be placed at home, they can not only show off to the guests to show their dignity, but also serve in the high hall to encourage future generations. ”
This is the celebrity effect, Liu Qi from the era of the fan circle feels even deeper, for those extreme fans, even the skin of idols may be shining.
These merchants have always been despised by scholars, and if they can get a thing that has been used by Confucianism, they can even be regarded as family heirlooms.
"In this case, this matter will be handed over to the second brother to handle, just like this and ......"
Liu Qi briefly introduced how to hold an auction, which is an inference for Xi Guan, who was born as a businessman.
Hearing Xi Guan's eyebrows fluttering, his eyes shining with golden light, he couldn't say goodbye to Xi Wen, so he hurried to prepare.
Looking at the people in the courtyard who were still busy sorting out the list and settling accounts, Liu Qi was satisfied, although he didn't know how to do business, but those marketing methods in later generations, just take out a few, it is a shocking work.
Reforming furniture is just the beginning, and there is also a little selfishness for his own convenience and enjoyment, and there are more ways to make money in the future, waiting to be deployed one by one.
When he was thinking about it, he saw Liu Neng coming over with Xiahou Ba and the others, and said, "The eldest prince, these three sons don't have enough money on them, and they want to use the sword as collateral, what do you think?" ”
They originally had some money, but to redeem themselves for Zhang Wei, plus to buy Zhangjiazhuang Courtyard, they had already spent seventy-seven or eighty-eight, and they wanted to buy these furniture today, and they were already shy in their pockets.
Originally, Cao Tai wanted to give up, but Xiahou Ba thought that this was a godsend, and they bought a large amount of furniture, so they could hide it in the car and transport it away as soon as possible by transporting it.
Liu Qi not only did not get suspicious, but also thanked them for buying furniture, and the journey was naturally unimpeded.
The two of them had already made a decision, and immediately persuaded Xiahou Nan to mortgage the Qingyu Sword and redeem it after they returned.
Xiahou Ba hugged his fists and said: "The three of us came to see off our relatives, and we left in a hurry, and I didn't bring much money, so I am ashamed to want to temporarily bet the sword here." ”
Xiahou Nan was worried about his black pearl, took off his saber and said: "The name of this sword is Qingyu, sharpening iron like clay, it can be described as a sword in the world, please General Liu take a look." ”
"The Green Sword?" Liu Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he took the sword and observed it carefully.
Gently press and hold the machine spring, then listen to a crisp machine spring, the blade pops out two inches, the sword body is smooth, if there are water ripples, engraved with the word "Qingyu".
The Qingyu Sword is Cao Cao's sword, with a total of two, one "Yitian" and one "Qingyu", and is called the peerless double sword.
The Heavenly Sword Cao Cao wore it, and the Qingyu Sword was protected by the personal guard Xia Houen, and was snatched by Zhao Yun in the Battle of Changsaka.
This time, Cao Cao lent the Qingyu Sword to Xiahou Nan for self-defense, probably with the intention of ordering everyone, which shows that he still attaches great importance to this eldest son-in-law.
Xiahou Nan saw Liu Qi's brows frowning slightly, afraid that he would not agree, so he hurriedly said: "This sword was lent to me by Prime Minister Cao Cheng for self-defense when I was on the road, and it will be redeemed in the future, please rest assured general." ”
Liu Qi put the sword into the sheath, handed it to Liu Neng beside him, hugged his fists and said with a smile: "The three of them turned out to be guests, but they took the liberty to invite them to the banquet, but they let you break the cost and failed to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, which is really rude!" Don't look at Prime Minister Cao Cheng's face, but look at General Yide's face, I also believe in the three. ”
"The general is really a cheerful person, thank you!"
Xiahou Ba was overjoyed, thanked Liu Qi, and asked Liu Neng to send those furniture to Zhang's mansion in three days according to the purchase list.
Liu Neng sent the three of them away, walked back and frowned: "Eldest prince, they must use those gold nuggets to redeem the sword, how should this be?" ”
"You want to play with the white wolf with empty gloves here, they are still a little tender!"
Liu Qi smiled indifferently, called Liu Neng to him and whispered a few words, and Liu Neng left happily.
At this time, I heard a person at the door laughing loudly: "I almost missed the day of the general's marriage, the old man came late, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”
Liu Qi turned his head to look, and saw a tall gray-shirted old man with crane hair and a childish face, walking with a long sword and a fist, walking with a dragon and tiger step, and his momentum was extraordinary.
