MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 855 north and south goods company
Chapter 855 North-South Cargo Company
When the auspicious time came, the red cloth was uncovered, and "Guangfeng Shuibei Nanbei Goods Store" opened.
The crowd of onlookers buzzed, "North and South goods store? Selling South and North goods?"
"It should be. I'm afraid they brought all the goods from the south of the Yangtze River. I heard that Mrs. Shizi has a fleet, and there are big ships that go out to sea. Maybe there are even people's things in it." The speaker's eyes brightened, and he wanted to squeeze in now. Go feast your eyes.
"Really? Then I have to go in and see."
"I'll go in and have a look too!"
Whether to buy or not is one thing, but watching the fun is a must. And the flyer didn't say that you can't go in to watch the excitement.
Watching everyone swarming towards the door, Yang Fu, who was watching all this from a height, was a little frightened, fearing that someone would fall, cause a stampede accident, and turn a good thing into a bad thing.
"How many people are here!" This means that everyone in the city has come. Obediently.
Yang Fu did not expect so many people to come to the new shop.
Huo Xi wasn't worried at all, "There are quite a few soldiers in the village, and they can hold on."
She is very satisfied with this wave of momentum. Just now, she saw Jun Xiangjie's confidantes in the crowd just now, so many merchants might have come to watch the fun today.
She originally wanted to unite with various merchants to break the monopoly of the Jun family, and destroy the Yiyantang dominated by his family, but she did not expect to fail. After being suppressed by the Jun family, even the Yu family couldn't hold on.
Then I have to think of another way. Since you don't want to send business to each family, and distribute Jun's business to each family, and each family doesn't dare to take it, then you don't want it.
Let her earn the money.
She can't have too much.
The Zhuang soldiers maintained order at the gate, and the crowd entered the gate in an orderly manner.
There are seven entrances in the yard, and the rockery pavilion garden has been demolished. There are small rooms and large rooms, and the space of each entrance is large enough. The last two entrances were used as warehouses and the residences of the stewards, and the first entrance was converted into a carriage and horse house and a waiting area for visitors. There are enough chairs for visitors to sit and rest, as well as free tea and snacks.
The rest of the four entrances were all converted into shops.
There were a lot of people who came in, and they were led by the guys to separate into the courtyards. Although there are many people, it is not crowded every time you enter and look at it. There is enough space in each warehouse for customers to see and choose goods.
As soon as everyone followed the buddy in, they were dumbfounded from the moment they entered the gate.
Is this a shop? Why is it different from what they saw? Each entry has a different name, such as north-south storehouse, cloth storehouse, dry sauce storehouse, tea and wine storehouse, treasure storeroom, foreign storehouse... etc. After entering the courtyard, there are different rooms in each courtyard. There are also various signs hanging on the door.
The dry sauce room is divided into a dry cured room, a sauce room, and even candied nuts are dedicated to a room.
Each room is full of shelves. There are various goods on the shelves. They are placed in one place according to different products, different origins and different prices. Each product has a brand on it, and pictures and texts are used to introduce the product name, origin and price.
Even illiterate people can clearly know the selling price of each item by looking at the pictures.
I just can’t understand it anymore, there is a guy in every room, what is the name of the sales guide guy, he said he is helping you choose the goods.
The sales guide guys wear the same clothes, not only men but also women.
All of them are young, looking energetic, with bright eyes. There is a bag on his body, which contains paper, pens, bamboo sticks and other things. All of them smiled, and did not look down on the visitors because of their clothes, speech, or rich and poor.
If the guests don’t understand, the guys will take the trouble to explain back and forth. Those female buddies are even more patient and soft-spoken, which makes people very comfortable.
Really fresh, which shop in the city uses female assistants?
Moreover, these female buddies are generous, they don’t care about men and women, they don’t divide the customers into men and women, they are all buyers, this is just their job.
Female customers are accompanied by these female buddies, and the whole body is comfortable, and the shopping experience has never been happier.
These guys will also help them choose more suitable goods according to their actual situation. They will not be specially asked to buy better quality and more expensive ones.
It makes people feel like spring breeze.
The visitors were surprised to see it.
I didn’t expect the same thing to have so many origins, varieties and appearances. There are so many different textures and shapes in just one fan, which surprised everyone.
For example, the round fan is also made of silk, the southern fan is different from the northern fan, and the paintings are very different to laymen like them.
The southern fans are all characters, animals, flowers and plants, and the pictures of ladies can even see the strands of hair, which are vivid and delicate. The northern fans are all landscapes, rough and atmospheric. And there is even a fan made of bamboo thread! That bamboo thread can be chopped as thin as hair! It's so rare.
Eye-opening.
What's more strange is yet to come.
For each item they selected, they could not pay on the spot or take it away, but the salesman gave them two bamboo sticks, one for the product and the other for the quantity, and asked them to take the bamboo sticks to a special account room to settle the payment , After paying the silver, get the pick-up voucher, and then take this voucher to pick up the goods.
There is a special inspection place at the pick-up place, where the goods are inspected on the spot. If there is a problem with the goods, you can choose not to, just go to the cashier to get the money back. After inspecting the goods, it is confirmed that the quality and quantity are correct, and we will not be responsible for leaving the inspection room.
You just say this is rare?
The guests were so surprised that even the guy in uniform could stare at them for a long time. It is said that their different jobs can be seen from the cloth bags on their bodies.
Everyone watched intently, reluctant to leave the warehouse or the yard.
If you are tired from shopping outside the warehouse, there is a rest area in each yard, where you can drink tea for free, where you can sit and rest, and discuss the products and prices with others.
Where else is this available?
Everyone came out of this warehouse and that warehouse in a daze, and walked around in each warehouse to see the strange things.
You don’t need to carry heavy goods around, you only need to hold a bunch of various sticks. And the bamboo sticks in each warehouse are different, with various heads, each of which is exquisitely made, so you can know what product you have chosen by the head.
If you get a lot of lottery tickets, the guys will give you a small basket for fear that you will be tired.
Either bamboo or straw, let you carry this small basket to various warehouses to see and choose goods. The goods in each warehouse are sufficient, the quality is good, and more importantly, the price is cheaper than outside.
Not long after, the guests who came in each had a bunch of sticks in their baskets. Even people who originally planned to come in to watch the excitement brought a basket of bamboo sticks.
Everyone is too happy to miss Shu.
There are various goods rooms in each courtyard, there are large categories and small categories. Finally, when I entered the treasure store, it also sold various handicrafts, jewelry and jade jewelry.
There are dozens of kinds of boxes, blinding people's eyes. Inlaid with gold, silver, pearls and emeralds, what is the name of the shiny one? It is said that it was specially transported from the south of the Yangtze River. Fan people come to me, and they all like it very much.
There is even more strange, what is called a foreign warehouse. It is full of Fan people's things, and there are all kinds of things from neighboring countries in Yunnan, Pyu, Laos, Siam and other countries, Western Fan and Xiqiang countries and tribes in the Western Regions, it is simply too strange.
Is this something ordinary people can watch?
In the shop outside, the guy who sells jewelry and treasures has eyes on the top of his head, and he can't enter the shop without a certain identity. But now they can actually see room after room of foreign treasures.
God, it's worth it to come in!
Eye-opening, full of eyes!
They just take a look and don't buy it, and the buddies don't chase them away. Where can I find this service? They can stay here all day! No, with free tea, they can stay for days!
And they don’t need to carry all kinds of heavy goods back. If you buy a lot, they will deliver them to your door for free. God, this service, if you don't buy one more, you will be sorry for the hard work of the buddy.
And when the cashier settled the bill, he also said that the first day of today would be a 10% discount! With the leaflet, there are discounts and giveaways!
God, my second uncle and third aunt don't know the news yet? I have to go back and tell them!
There are a lot of things here, you can buy everything you want, and you don’t need to look around to buy it all. The most important thing is that the price is cheap. It's the shop opened by Shizi's wife again, and the emperor has inscribed it. Can you deceive them?
Running out under the wind.
Not long after, the first wave of people who came in to inquire about the news hurried out, and those who got the news from outside rushed to this side again, and more and more people came.
"The old man from Jun's family is here too." Yang Fu smacked at Huo Xi, motioning her to look. This old man, relying on the support of his concubine daughter, dares to murder his nephew and son-in-law? I can't wait to step forward and kick him!
Huo Xi saw it on the attic as soon as he entered the courtyard, and smiled, "Let him go." The old man thought she was hopeless, and let him take a look.
The two uncles and nephews looked at the tide-like crowds at the exit and entrance from the high-rise building, and they were very happy.
Yang Fu admired his niece very much. How did this head grow? How could you come up with such an idea and open such a shop?
He can now foresee the day when he will make a lot of money in the future.
"Xi'er, how did you come up with the idea of opening such a shop? It sells all the products together, like a big market. You can buy everything here. I've never seen it in other places. Pass."
Huo Xi smiled, it is true that her shop is called a big market. There are bazaars everywhere, and there are a lot of them here in Dian. They are called "catch the market" or "catch the street".
Later generations also called this mode of operation a supermarket.
She just used it in advance to deal with Jun's. What she borrowed was not the supermarkets of later generations, but more the business model of Sun Chunyang Nanhuo Store during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty.
They all thought that supermarkets belonged to foreigners. In fact, as early as the middle and late Ming Dynasty, we had a business model similar to supermarkets. At that time, Sun Chunyang in Suzhou was a scholar. After a long time of trying, he gave up his writing and went into business, and opened Nanhuo.
Imitating the six houses of officials, households, soldiers, criminals, rites, and workers in the county government, six rooms were set up, namely the north-south goods room, the sea goods room, the salted meat room, the sauce goods room, the candied fruit room, and the candle room. Warehouse display business model.
At its peak, even royal tributes were taken from him, making him a wealthy man in Suzhou in one fell swoop.
Huo Xi borrowed his model, and based on the goods he could get, he divided them into six rooms: the North and South Warehouse, the Cloth Warehouse, the Tea and Wine Room, the Dried Sauce Room, the Treasure Warehouse, and the Foreign Warehouse.
She has a fleet in her hands, and she has the advantages of channels and advantages for North-South goods. This side is also close to the Pyu country, which is rich in jade, and then the treasures and jewelry styles from the south of the Yangtze River are transported here. There are also many nobles here, and there will be no shortage of business. And her fleet can bring back a large amount of foreign goods, coupled with the newly opened business route in the southwestern neighboring country, the foreign goods store will be her unique business.
Just opened for a day, Huo Xi's "Guangfengshui North and South Merchant Store" is known to everyone in the city, everyone knows it.
