Gu Qi, she just wants to farm

Chapter 194 A Brand New Journey II
At the same time, because the Four Seas Escort Bureau, regardless of the amount of the dart order, regardless of the distance, is even willing to give a good reputation for making orders, which attracted many merchants from He Song Town and even several surrounding towns. Better than expected.

Although this kind of short-distance small order does not earn much money, it can earn enough reputation and at the same time cover up the whereabouts of Liu Yong Jiangping and others hiding shredded tobacco in He Song Town and Lanmu County.

These things are a new beginning and a good start for both the Four Seas Escort and Gu's Merchant City.
-
In mid-February, Gu's Commercial Market welcomed an unexpected guest.

The person who came was Liu Xiaoyuan, the patriarch of the Liu family whom Mrs. He had met at the seminar before.

"Patriarch Liu, why are you free to come to Si Niang's place today?"

In order to facilitate the reception of customers with large orders, before the new year, Gu Qi asked Mrs. Qian to arrange a reception area in a corner of the shopping mall.

A custom-made wooden single-seat sofa is used, and thick cushions are specially made on it.Although it is not as comfortable as the sofas of later generations, it is still considered a unique novelty in He Song Town.

At this time, Miss Qian led Liu Xiaoyuan to the reception area to sit down, and asked Su Miao to fetch tea and pastries.

After Liu Xiaoyuan took his seat, he touched the enveloping soft bag behind him curiously, and said with a smile:

"I used to hear about the name of Gu's Merchant Market, and I've always wanted to come and see it.

I'm really free today, so I came here.Why, shopkeeper Qian doesn't welcome Liu? "

"Patriarch Liu was joking, it's Si Niang's honor that you can come here."

Liu Xiaoyuan and Mrs. Qian said a few words of courtesy, and then looked around: "Your way of doing business in this market is indeed fresh, and I think the business is also very good. I didn't expect Shopkeeper Qian to be such a capable person at such a young age."

Miss Qian smiled lightly and shook her head in denial: "Si Niang is just a person who does things. My boss can do whatever she says, and she can't be praised by Patriarch Liu. Really, my boss is indeed a capable person."

"Oh?" Liu Xiaoyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and took advantage of the opportunity to pull the topic into today's main topic: "I wonder if Liu will be lucky enough to meet the owner of Gu's Commercial Market today."

Fourth Lady Qian took a sip of her tea, but did not immediately respond to Liu Xiaoyuan's request, she only asked with a gentle smile, "I wonder why Patriarch Liu is here today?"

Liu Xiaoyuan didn't intend to hide it, he leaned forward slightly when he heard the words, and said: "I heard that the cloth used in your merchant city is from Zhou's cloth shop?"

"Indeed." Mrs. Qian nodded.

He also explained: "To be precise, it's not that Gu's Merchant Market entered Zhou's Cloth Shop's goods, but Zhou's Cloth Shop settled in the counters of Gu's Merchant Market."

"How do you say that?" Liu Xiaoyuan's eyes lit up, and he asked:

"I don't know if shopkeeper Qian can tell Liu in detail what method Zhou's Cloth used to settle in Gu's Commercial Market."

When Gu's Commercial Market was established, it was divided into two parts.One part is the self-operated model in which the mall independently purchases and sells goods, and the other part is the model in which merchants enter the counter to integrate deduction points.

These are not commercial secrets, and they can naturally be discussed openly and honestly.

Fourth Lady Qian had done her homework earlier, and knew that the Liu family's main business was cloth trading. Today, Liu Xiaoyuan came to the commercial market and asked first about the entry of the Zhou's cloth shop counter.

It is clear at a glance what the picture is.

Mrs. Qian Si had a heart, so she took Liu Xiaoyuan to visit the whole shopping mall, and introduced the operation and settlement methods of the shopping mall in detail.

The last two people stopped in front of the counter of Zhou's cloth shop.

Miss Qian took the cloth samples in front of the counter and handed them to Liu Xiaoyuan, and said, "Zhou's Cloth Shop currently has two counters in Gu's Merchant Market. They use the method of deduction of points according to the amount sold.

That is to say, there is no need to spend an extra penny for the cloth of Zhou's Cloth to be stationed at the counter of the commercial market, it only needs to deliver the cloth on time and in accordance with the quantity.

Every time a piece of cloth is sold in the commercial market, the corresponding cooperation fee will be deducted according to a fixed point deduction method, and the remaining silver will be settled on a monthly basis after being credited to the cloth bank. "

"Without any rental fees?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked curiously.

Miss Qian Si smiled slightly: "No need."

"If you want to come to Guishang City, the deductible points for cooperation will not be low." Liu Xiaoyuan is also a good person, and then he understands the key point.

Miss Qian Si didn't deny it either, and smiled gently: "Since it's a business, it's not easy to let the market lose money, isn't it?"

"It's natural." Liu Xiaoyuan nodded in agreement.

"Patriarch Liu saw it when he thought about it. Although Gu's Commercial Market is not in He Song Town, but because it is located near the official road, it is backed by Xiaoqi Village, and there are many villages with a large number of villagers nearby, so the business is not easy. Difference.

The most important thing is that Gu's Merchant Market is the only one here, and now Zhou's Cloth Shop is also the only one in the mall. "

Miss Qian's speech is habitually neither serious nor serious, neither slow nor urgent, gentle and natural, with the intention of being close to her heart.

But at this time Liu Xiaoyuan was not in the mood to admire the gentleness of Fourth Lady Qian's voice, but was completely attracted by the content of Fourth Lady Qian's last two sentences.

*
Gu's Merchant Market is the only one in a radius of tens of miles, and the counter of Zhou's Cloth Shop is the only one in Gu's Merchant Market.

what does that mean!
It means that the cloth business of the entire Xiaoqi Village and even the surrounding villages is almost completely monopolized by Zhou's Cloth Shop.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoyuan's expression changed again and again.

Although in terms of purchasing power, the money that the villagers in these villages are willing to spend on buying cloth may not be comparable to the residents in Hesong Town.However, there are so many villagers, even if one household can only cover half of the household, the amount of cloth to be purchased during the four seasons is enough to make other cloth shops in the town breathe a sigh of relief.

And these also made Liu Xiaoyuan feel startled.

Zhou's Commercial Bank is not a local merchant in He Song Town, but the restaurants, grain stores and cloth shops under the name of Zhou's Commercial Bank are blooming everywhere in He Song Town.Leaving other businesses aside, as far as cloth business is concerned, it is one of Liu's biggest competitors.

In the past, everyone's shops were still in He Song Town. Liu's cloth shop is an old cloth shop in He Song Town. It has a good reputation and has relatively regular customers. In terms of business, Liu's cloth shop is not afraid of Zhou's.

But looking at it again now, Liu Xiaoyuan realized that Zhou's cloth shop had already arranged the business to other places.

If I hadn't accidentally heard about Gu's business market and discovered the key point early on, I'm afraid that if this continues, the business of Liu's cloth line will be completely suppressed by Zhou's within two or three years.

This is not sensational.

There are only a dozen or so villages under He Song Town, and among them, Xiaoqi Village, which is the closest to He Song Town, and two or three nearby villages are the ones with the largest number of villagers and the wealthiest villages.

In the past, if the villagers in these villages wanted to buy cloth, they would have to go to the town, but now they have a more convenient choice.This virtually blocked the original passenger flow of Buxing in the town in advance.
