52. When guests come, business is prosperous
As soon as Shen Cai entered the store, the rich businessman who originally wanted to grind hard with Qiao Erya knew that there was no play.
All the net worth of the few of them added up to just wealth leaking out of Shen Cai's fingernails, what to rob him of?
Qiao Erya didn't react much when she saw Shen Cai, she didn't understand the concept of being rich and rivaling the country. Besides, she was not shocked that her boyfriend was the prince, so she would not make a fuss when she saw the richest man.
She entertained Shen Cai with a normal attitude towards customers.
In the eyes of the guys and several wealthy businessmen, they suddenly felt that Qiao Erya was deeply hidden.
It's rare to see a woman who is so calm as Shen Cai, I don't know which family came out to train the girl, and actually sent such a good seedling to Qiongzhou.
But after thinking about it, if she hadn't been sent to Qiongzhou, where would they have been able to buy such good glass products, and they also knew about the pickles of Baozhu Pavilion selling solid-colored glass beads.
Shen Cai came all the way to hear Zhong Heming mention Miss Qiao's name, and she was the boss of the whole street.
I don't think he dared to take such a big step when he was just starting out. But when he saw the clear and transparent crystal window, he knew that people had the ability, and it was really the waves behind the sea that pushed the waves ahead.
If his son who ran away from home without a fight had half the courage of Miss Qiao, the Shen family would have become an imperial businessman, not the richest man in Zhejiang.
The imperial merchant Zeng family is inferior to him in terms of financial resources and business minds, but people can make a living. In addition to the eldest son of the Zeng family, there are more than a dozen children under the big house, and the old thief Zeng married eighteen beautiful concubines alone.
The Zeng family gave birth to so many descendants, and there was an old thief Zeng who was good at drilling camps, and not long after sending his brother's daughter to the palace, he gave birth to five princes to earn back the name of an imperial businessman.
He didn't look down on the Zeng family's methods, but he had the support of the prince, and he was the richest man in Zhejiang Province who was riding on his head by the little Zeng family to make waves.
"Miss Qiao, I have admired my name for a long time."
Qiao Erya blessed body: "Don't dare to be, Master Shen's reputation is like thunder." ”
Shen Cai smiled meaningfully, and then turned his gaze to the store.
"What's that?"
His eyes were sharp, and at a glance he could see the music boxes on the high shelves.
Unwilling to leave, a few wealthy merchants wanted to see the clock being bought, so they sat in the rest area of the store with their things, pricking up their ears to eavesdrop.
They were dazzled by the glass when they chose it before, and they didn't see anything different, so they couldn't help but get up and lean over when they were aroused.
"It's a music box, and if you twist the mainspring from behind, it will make music."
Jorya asked the guy to take the music box out of the counter and demonstrate it himself.
Several wealthy businessmen were dumbfounded, this thing was even more exquisite than the glass they bought!
Not only them, but Shen Cai, who had been to the sea and seen a lot when he was young, had never seen a music box.
He took the things in his hands, and several of them listened to a tune.
Jorya introduced on the side: "When the music stops and then twists the clockwork, you can continue to play, as long as the clockwork is not broken, you can listen to it all the time." ”
The wealthy merchant hurriedly asked, "How can this music box be sold?" ”
When they saw the music box that could listen to the music, the weight of the clock in their hearts went down.
How to carry the clocks and watches of the treasure of the town store on the ship is a problem, not to mention the difficulty of transportation, and this alone is easy to offend people. The music box was only a dozen inches in size, and they had already made a choice in their hearts.
The guy replied with a smile: "There are not many music boxes in stock in the store, so there is a limited purchase policy." Each person can only buy two per day, and the price is 50 taels of silver. ”
Now it's the turn of the wealthy businessmen to be shocked, such a ingenious thing is only 50 taels?!
If this is placed in the Baozhu Pavilion, it will have to be fried until five hundred taels before it can be sold.
It really made a few wealthy businessmen guess correctly. Later, some peers did buy the music box and resell it to the main store of Baozhu Pavilion in the capital, and sold it to Baozhu Pavilion at a price of 200 taels, and was sold by Baozhu Pavilion for 50 taels of gold. When the music box spread to the capital, the unjust boss who spent a lot of money personally led people to smash the signboard of Baozhu Pavilion to pieces.
A wealthy businessman still couldn't believe it: "Dare to ask why it is sold so cheaply?" "Cheap can't be believed.
The guy explained for the owner: "Miss Qiao said that there is no middleman to make the difference, all of them are shipped back directly from the place of origin, not to ask for expensive sales, just to earn back the cost." If the sales are good, you will definitely come back in the future. ”
Now everyone in the store has changed their opinion of Qiao Erya, and her image has become taller in their hearts, including Zhong Heming.
He has already seen these things, and there is one in Shu Niang's house, and he can't put it down all day long. Although he didn't know the source, he knew that such a rare and rare object would definitely sell for more than ten or twenty times the price.
He felt ashamed in his heart. At first, he thought that Miss Qiao was just an ordinary woman and could not help his nephew's great cause, so he wanted his nephew to endure the humiliation and marry the daughter of a wealthy merchant in Qiongzhou as a concubine.
He was now extremely glad that his nephew decisively refused. A woman of such character as Miss Qiao, she can attract excellent people to associate with even if she doesn't do anything.
Sure enough, as soon as the guy's voice fell, Shen Cai was the first to applaud.
The impression of the richest man in Zhejiang is hundreds or thousands of times more powerful than those rich businessmen in Qiongzhou.
Qiao Erya just said it casually, I didn't expect this guy to be so clever, write down her words as they are, and consider giving him a salary increase.
She calculated the account in private, and even if she sold the music box for ten taels of silver, she could return the cost. Ten taels of silver is equal to one tael of gold, and one tael of gold is worth 20,000 yuan, and she is worried that it will be sold too cheaply and disrupt the market, so she will set the price of fifty taels of silver.
No matter how delicate the design of the music box is, the most expensive is not more than 300 yuan.
Since there has been a misunderstanding, let's let this misunderstanding continue.
They were holding a merry-go-round music box, and there were lanterns, gardens, star trails, and crystal balls on the counter.
If Jorya had to choose, her favorites would be the Star Track and the Crystal Ball. The sphere of the crystal ball is made of glass, and when music is played, there will be snowflakes in it, which is very suitable for girls.
The star track is a structure of the round sky, the colored crystal beads that symbolize several planets in the solar system are surrounded by meridian rings, and the base is a magical starry sky, which is a self-rotating gear structure. At the same time as the music sounds, the colored crystal beads follow the rotation, with a sense of mechanical romantic atmosphere, which can be used to enlighten the ancients.
Shen Cai is worthy of being the richest man, and he has the same aesthetic as Qiao Erya. At first glance, he fell in love with the music box constructed in a round sky, but he thought that the colored crystals on it were ornaments.
The only thing that makes several wealthy businessmen have the same aesthetic is the crystal ball music box, mainly because the transparent crystal ball is too beautiful. If it weren't for the limited purchase policy, they would have been eager to buy the crystal ball style in one go.
However, with the words of the guys, they knew the bottom line of the proprietor's business, and did not stalk her to sell it to them.
Anyway, Wanbaolou has been here, waiting for them to sell it and then come to buy, and then bring more people to help buy it, and the future will be long.
Shen Cai bought two sets of star track music boxes, and for some reason he was particularly fond of the design of the round sky, which made him think of the geodynamic instrument.
