With Gong Zheng's understanding of business, he couldn't find the root cause of such a crisis in Yiqi Firm, so he could only imitate other well-established firms.

If others have a great craftsman, we must have it, and if others have a great treasurer, we must also have it.

It cannot be said that Gong Zheng's idea is wrong, it can only be said that his understanding of business is too shallow.

"I can give you unlimited treasurers and craftsmen. Tang Luo said lightly.

Gong Zheng raised his head with a happy face, and before he could thank him, he heard the second half of the sentence.

"But I want you to monopolize the Xiling agricultural market within three years, maybe you can do it?"

The smile disappeared completely, and the blood on his face faded, Gong Zheng's face turned pale with shock, his eyes shook, and his heart shook inexplicably.

In a commercial city like Xiling, there is no industry that is monopolized in the true sense, and Tang Luo's current request is to monopolize agriculture, how can he do things that other families can't do.

"The villain... It can't be done. Gong Zheng opened his mouth suddenly, his heart was full of bitterness, and he felt that his request was too much, so Tang Luo made a more excessive request to respond.

However, a small trading house tried in vain to ask Gongzi to use the resources of the Tang clan to transfer out craftsmen and shopkeepers, and now looking back, it was he who overstepped it, but without relying on the craftsmen and shopkeepers of the Tang family, how can the righteous business firm survive the current crisis?

Gong Zheng's eyes were full of confusion, like a leaf falling in the vast sea, drifting with the tide and having no direction, he could only watch the Yiqi business house decay day by day.

A dignified martial artist at the pinnacle of mortality, the supreme leader of the gang who controls three thousand gangs, was forced into such a fragile appearance by several family shopkeepers, Tang Luo was also a little funny: "Raise your head, don't look like you're going to die, it's just a few shopkeepers, the sky hasn't fallen yet!"

It's like a drowning traveler seeing driftwood, a bright light in the endless darkness, Gong Zheng in a trance heard this, and his eyes were firmly locked on Tang Luo's face: "Gong... Childe, is there anything you can do?"

It's not necessarily okay to fight, but when it comes to doing business, it's not about anyone, everyone in Xiling is rubbish!

Tang Luo leaned against the wall of the blue bricks with a smiling expression, and asked with a smile: "Tell me first, why can't you monopolize Xiling agriculture after you have a shopkeeper and a craftsman?"

"Gongzi Mingjian, there are more and more agricultural commercial banks in Xiling now, there were only three or five last month, and there are more than 20 this month. Gong Zhengda said bitterly: "And they are all family industries, whether they are farm tools, rapeseed quality is superior, the price is the same as our firm, although we have a first-mover advantage, in Xiling first opened dozens of shops, but now these shop business is indeed getting worse, even with the help of Tang's shopkeepers and craftsmen, that is, the level of other family firms, if you want to monopolize this business, you can't do it at all." ”

"That's a good point. Tang Luo nodded approvingly and said: "So you know, even if I am willing to send the shopkeeper and craftsmen to you, it is just for you to smooth out a little disadvantage and reach the point where you have the same advantages as other commercial houses, and the so-called equal advantage means that there is no advantage, which is the reason why you can't monopolize Xiling's agriculture with this method." ”

Gong Zheng is not stupid, but limited by his vision and pattern, and Tang Luo is now going to open these for him: "Then let me ask you again, if we want to monopolize Xiling agriculture within three years, what do you think we can do?"

It turns out that monopoly agriculture is not an excuse to reject me casually, Gong Zheng is even more bitter in his heart, although he has always known that this young master's ambition is higher than the sky, but as soon as he opens his mouth, it is a monopoly, which really scares him.

But since the young master asked, he couldn't help but answer, and after being silent for a while, he came to a conclusion: "Unless other families in Xiling are not allowed to open businesses related to agriculture, in this way, they can monopolize Xiling's agricultural ........"

"Well, it's simple and rude~" Tang Luo smiled: "It's just that you can't do it, don't talk about you and me, even the Tang clan can't do it, so this method can't be used." Anything else?"

Gong Zheng hummed for a long time, holding back two words: "No ......"

"Heh~" Tang Luo chuckled: "In fact, monopolizing Xiling agriculture is really not as difficult as you think. ”

With this simple opening, Gong Zheng's mouth opened wider and wider, he knew that even if it was another hundred years, he would not forget this night, Tang Luo leaned on the blue brick wall, and said a major event that shook Xiling, lightly:

"The core of the so-called business is competition, and as long as competition is involved, it is the same as warfare, there are traces to follow and laws to follow. ”

"To monopolize Xiling's agriculture, we must first know how big this Xiling's agriculture is!"

"There are 1.6 million free people in Xiling, and according to two to four people per household, Xiling needs about 500,000 sets of farm tools, 500,000 head of cultivated animals, 1 million catties of rapeseed, and 8 million acres of wasteland. ”

"According to the calculation of three hundred gold per set of farm tools, you can tell me, how much has been excavated in the agricultural market in Xiling now?"

"Goodong" Gong Zheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, although he always felt that the prospects of agriculture would be very good, but there was only a vague and general concept, but he didn't expect Tang Luo to say a few words, and he threw the current Xiling market in front of him, he only felt a new door open in front of him, and said excitedly: "Yicheng!"

After thinking about it, he said: "It may be less than one percent, our Yiqi Commercial Bank is still the largest commercial house in Xiling, with the most shops, but it has only sold less than 20,000 sets of farm tools in the past few months, and although other commercial houses are now in the market, they sell less than 100 sets of farm tools every day." ”

Thinking that there was still such a large volume that had not been discovered, Gong Zheng trembled with excitement, and there seemed to be light in his eyes.

"Huh. Tang Luo smiled and said: "If this is regarded as a battle, the total amount of these 500,000 sets of farm tools is the place to be attacked, and we and the other family trading houses are armies, our purpose is to occupy more shares, yes or no?"

"Yes, that's right!" With the explanation in simple terms, Gong Zheng's heart underwent a strange change, as if something was sprouting, and he was eager to hear Tang Luo's next words.

"Then let me ask you, obviously the five-acre field order has been issued for one season, and the reclamation of wasteland is the time when agricultural tools are most needed, why are less than ten percent of Xiling people buying agricultural tools?" Tang Luo asked again.

Gong Zheng thought for a while and said: "Because they don't have money, a set of farm tools for three hundred gold, for those civilians is a huge amount of money, except for some civilians who do small business have bought farm tools, now Xiling is in a shortage of work everywhere, now every Xiling person is working hard, just to buy farm tools as soon as possible to reclaim their own land, and those foremen saw this situation, but fiercely lowered the price, in the past three gold daily work, now a gold can not be done." ”
