Chapter 75: Pawnshop
"It's so capable, with these three things, let alone setting up a stall, I can make this the most popular place in Chang'an City, even if we sell a pile of soil in the future, I can say that it is the best soil in Chang'an City."
Zhou Huairen said happily, he is an old businessman in Chang'an City, how can he not know the business opportunities here?
Take the mirror in the hand of Miss Changsun as an example, it is said that there are only two pieces in the world at present, one is in the hands of the emperor, which is transferred to the emperor by Wang Dewang, and the other is Miss Changsun's piece.
As for the knife in the hands of the little prince, it is more marketable, there are more martial artists in Chang'an City, and the children of the powerful families will basically dance knives and guns, and there is also comparison, a while ago, the little prince let out a word, because there are too many orders, so the East Palace will not accept it for the time being, if it is sold in our place, there are more dignitaries and nobles every day.
But this Datang Tianzhuo ......
"Your Highness, I heard that Datang Tianjiu has been sold in the restaurant of the eldest grandson's family, and now it is difficult to find a pound in the market, if we sell it here, will it?"
Zhou Huairen is really not an ordinary person, ordinary businessmen will only consider the interests in their own hands, and will not consider it all, this person can think of this, Li Xiang will rest assured that he will hand over this place to him, making money is secondary, and the most important thing is to have a pattern.
"In the future, the winery of the eldest grandson's family will sell two hundred catties a day, and we will sell fifty catties a day here, and the price will be more expensive than the eldest grandson's family, and one percent of the profits will be handed over to the eldest grandson's family."
Li Xiang is still very principled in doing business, if he tramples on the agreement casually, then there will be no spirit of contract, and everyone will not abide by the contract at that time, and the loss will be themselves.
"That's no problem, Your Highness is thoughtful, I don't know when we can open?"
Zhou Huairen has been idle at home for so long, and when he heard such a good product from Li Xiang, he couldn't hold it back, and he couldn't wait to open his doors immediately.
"What are you anxious about? First send someone to spread the news in Chang'an City, and then find all the famous characters in Chang'an City, and sing a three-day drama at our door, and the money for the two carriages at the door will be spent, so we must make a noise. ”
Li Xiang is a person from modern society who naturally understands how important the advertising effect is, as long as you can afford to spend money, everyone will think that you are strong, and they will be willing to do business with you in the future, in addition to the three rare goods, the most important thing is today's pawnshop.
Li Xiang also sent someone to investigate, the profit of the pawnshop can be said to be extremely rich, the pawnshop worth 100 wen will be accepted for you for 15 wen, and the pawnshop will be sold for 60 wen to 100 wen, which is four to seven times the profit.
"Your Highness, do you want to open only this one pawnshop, or do you want to open all over the Tang Dynasty?"
Zhou Huairen is an old fox, he has to ask things clearly at this moment, if there is only this one store, it doesn't matter, but if the whole Datang spreads, it will not be easy to do at that time, because the biggest owner of the pawnshop in the entire Datang is the Qinghe Cui family, which is also the pillar industry of the Cui family.
"That's it for now."
Li Xiang also understood what Zhou Huairen said, so after listening to his words, he gave him a reassurance pill first.
Regarding the commercial layout, Li Xiang already has a complete plan, and the most profitable pawnshops, silk and satin farms and other industries in this era have basically been divided.
If Li Xiang rushes in now, it will be like killing his parents by cutting off people's food and clothing, and then everyone may have a fight, Li Xiang has made a lot of enemies now, but he doesn't want to be squeezed in the middle.
Therefore, Li Xiang is ready to take another path, that is, to control everything with finance.
The economic base determines the superstructure, this sentence can be passed no matter where it goes, and the reason why the five surnames and seven wangs are so powerful is because they control the economy of the entire Tang Dynasty.
According to the information obtained by Li Xiang, the money village was only formed in the Ming Dynasty, and now it has not appeared in the Zhenguan period, and it will not appear until the Tang Zhongzong period, but it is only to do some exchange business, and there is no deposit and withdrawal business, let alone loan business.
While everyone still doesn't know about the money village, Li Xiang is ready to start working, the pawnshop is just selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, of course, if we want to make money, we can't just watch, we should make a profit.
"According to you, opening a pawnshop will cause them to be disgusted, so what about opening a restaurant?"
Li Xiang thought of the Fuyun Restaurant that was seized that day, which is also said to be the property of the Cui family, and has branches throughout the Tang Dynasty.
"It doesn't matter if the restaurant is large, first, the number is relatively large, second, every household is involved, and third, the profit is not large."
As long as there is no competition with the Cui family in the pawnshop, it doesn't matter if there are other industries, especially in the current restaurant, a good table will last ten yuan, not to mention that the dignitaries and nobles have cooks at home, and they will never order food outside.
"The business affairs will be handed over to you, this king will not treat anyone who does things for me badly, your second boy is not young, right?"
Li Xiang began the plan to buy people's hearts again, and at this stage, he first set up the treasure of Zhizhi, especially this flagship store in the capital, as long as it has a signboard, it can spread around.
In addition to selling his rare gadgets, Li Xiang also plans to hold a regular auction once a month to absorb rare gadgets from people from all over the world, so that they can get more money at the auction, at least much higher than the pawnshop, and also let buyers buy good things at a lower price at the auction.
Of course, we are not obliged to do this, and the handling fee that should be charged cannot be less, and the pawnshop empire of the Cui family will be dismantled step by step.
"It's seventeen in the New Year."
Zhou Huairen knelt down and kowtowed and said, this is the master's reward.
"Go back to the Imperial City Division Yamen to report, the official is not big, from the ninth grade."
Li Xiang's words made Zhou Huairen's tears come out, he used to saddle the prince before and after the horse, just thinking that his sons had a background, but the prince only thought about holding money.
The son is now gone, and there is an old girl at home, who is twenty-eight years old this year......
