They are all large carriages with four horses and iron wheels.

A carriage like this weighs thousands of kilograms.

What are these carriages of Da Dexiang used for?

The familiar smell of grain made Liu Jing, the rice shop shopkeeper who was wearing a thick leather jacket and holding a still hot purple clay pot, feel an unusually dangerous smell, and his whole body felt a little chilly unconsciously.

He quickly caught up with Da Dexiang's carriage.

What made him even more trembling was that he saw that Da Dexiang's carriage was distributing rice grains in the city.

Watching the carriage passing through the alleys, with the rice noodles on the carriages being dispersed and digested in the houses in the alleys, Liu Jing felt filled with an unreal feeling.

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Liu Jing knocked on the door and entered one of the open houses after the carriage passed through an alley.

The hostess who came out to collect grain in this private house just now looked very familiar. She must be a regular customer who often weighed grain in Daohuafang.

In the extremely small yard of this house, there were piles of clothes next to a small well. The hostess of the house should help people with laundry to support the family. Just when Liu Jing had just seen the scene in this low courtyard clearly,

The hostess who had just put the rice in the room happened to walk out of the back room. The simple woman, whose hands were soaked a little purple, saw at a glance that the person who knocked on the door was not an ordinary neighbor. She was slightly taken aback, recognized it, and said hesitantly:

"Are you the shopkeeper of Daohuafang?"

"Excuse me for being presumptuous." Liu Jing bowed to the woman and said, "I am Liu Jing from Daohuafang in the city. I seem to have met him several times in the shop before... I happened to meet the great virtue today.

Xiang delivered the goods, so I just wanted to ask, why did your family switch to Dadexiang’s rice noodles? Is their price cheaper than ours, or is there some other reason?”

Seeing Liu Jing being so polite, the simple woman felt inexplicably frightened and at a loss. She didn't know how to explain it: "It's not because of the low price..."

Liu Jing was anxious, but he still forced himself to be patient and said: "Don't be nervous. To be honest, I just want to inquire and learn some business methods from them. There is no other meaning."

The simple woman finally felt at ease and said a little embarrassedly: "The price of rice noodles in Dadexiang and Daohuafang is the same, but let us eat on credit for one month first, and wait until this time next month to come to the cashier. I guess

The shopkeeper can also see that our family does not have enough money, and the rice money this month is a bit tight. Although the rice money always has to be paid, we can always pay for it on credit for a month, which can always solve some problems..."

"One month's credit?!"

After hearing these words, Liu Jing's body swayed, and he suddenly felt dizzy and felt like the sky was falling.

"We owe one month's credit. How much money do we need to advance first? What if we can't pay it back? How can this business continue to operate?"

While feeling dizzy, he said in disbelief.

Seeing the over fifty-year-old shopkeeper suddenly crumbling, the simple woman felt nervous and subconsciously wanted to reach out to help him, but when she heard this sentence, she felt faintly unhappy.

Not yet? In this case, wouldn’t it mean that something bad will happen to her family?

Even if some of this month's rice money is diverted to other things, there will still be wages next month, and the rice money can be paid with next month's wages. How can there be a problem of not being able to pay due to my diligence and frugality in housekeeping?

Even if something happens and we really can't help at the moment, we can at least ask our neighbors to borrow some rice and then try to pay it back... For a moment, this simple woman even thought of more.

We have already planned. We don’t need to pay for rice this month. With the remaining money in hand, we can buy some cotton yarn first. The old cotton quilt at home has been used for many years, and it always feels a bit hard and cold no matter how much it is exposed to the sun.

It's time to play again. If you still have extra money, you can buy a few more chickens. After raising them for a few months, you can sell them for more money...

She thought further and felt that the pressure on her body was lighter, and there were more places to look forward to in the future. However, Liu Jing realized that he was a little rude and saluted her to say goodbye. When he walked out of the room, his whole body felt even more intense.

Cold, Suosuo began to tremble unconsciously. He had already thought that if all the Da Dexiang shops in Yunqin were doing this at this moment... these people could all afford it next month, then by then seventeen of their joint ventures would be able to afford it.

How can we win back these regular customers from Da Dexiang’s shop?

How many percent of regular customers have become customers of Da Dexiang?

Sweating all over his body, he raised his head and looked in the direction of Da Dexiang's carriage.

At this moment, the carriage had gone nowhere.

…

"Excellent!"

"Let's get one month's credit first, eat the rice and noodles first, and then pay them when their wages arrive next month. This business method is so simple and practical...it's really wonderful!"

"Two days ago, I was still worried that these 17 companies were lowering prices and Da Dexiang would not be able to sustain it. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, the situation has completely reversed. This is really the most exciting business in Yunqin in decades.

A battle."

In the courtyard of the Dasheng Goldman family, Sheng Manying was overjoyed, high-fiving her and praising: "Dade Xiang, the shopkeeper Chen, is really a great person!"

In the year before the year, due to a series of huge moves like a red-eyed gambler, coupled with Dasheng's high investment, Da Dexiang has become the focus of all businessmen in Yunqin, and has also become the focus of many businessmen around the new year.

In the ten days since the opening of the new year, Da Dexiang has already carried out a brutal strangulation with seventeen associated firms headed by Tianfeng Yuzhu, which shocked the entire Yunqin business community.

In this round of strangulation, the purpose of the seventeen associated firms is very clear. Even if they make a small profit, they just want to capture all their customers. In this way, even if Da Dexiang keeps up with the price, it will not be able to capture much of the market.

If the stall is spread out too big at once, it won't take long for it to collapse if it needs to be maintained.

Such a move is seen as extremely sophisticated and vicious in the eyes of all businessmen.

Because the weakness of Da Dexiang is that he expands too much at once, uses too much silver, does not have enough silver in hand, and cannot seize the market in the rice and noodle business. If there is no large amount of silver profit, the whole situation will collapse immediately. But

These seventeen associated firms usually operate steadily and have enough savings to spend.

However, what all the businessmen did not expect was that Da Dexiang would adopt the method of giving one month's credit first.

Although this method is simple, it completely breaks the rules of the Yunqin business field. No rice noodle business firm has ever done this. Moreover, when the seventeen associated firms reacted, they discovered Dadexiang's approach.

The results achieved are extremely astonishing. At least 30% of the customers have used Dadexiang’s rice noodles.

Thirty percent of the customers of all seventeen shops are already an extremely terrifying number, which has far exceeded the previous trading volume of Tianfeng Jade Pearl, the largest among the seventeen large shops!

Moreover, the seventeen joint ventures have not yet curbed the expansion of Da Dexiang. Even if they want to imitate Da Dexiang’s approach, it is too late!

Because most of the poor families in various towns have become Da Dexiang's customers, and the rest of the wealthy households who don't care about a month's worth of rice on credit cannot be impressed by this method.

Starting from next month, due to the large shipment volume of Da Dexiang, even if the price is pushed down further and profit is small but the sales are large, you can still make good profits. However, the seventeen joint ventures have begun to have a large backlog of rice grains, but they will

Produce a lot of adverse sequelae.

No matter what countermeasures the next seventeen associated firms have, at least so far, in this thrilling battle in the eyes of all Yunqin businessmen later in the year, Da Dexiang has won with an absolute advantage.

Da Dexiang once again bet on all his wealth and life like a red-eyed gambler. So far, he has won again!

Although Sheng Manying, the owner of Da Sheng Gao, was very optimistic about Da Dexiang and invested an astonishing amount of silver, he had never thought that seventeen firms would also attach such importance to him and quickly formed a joint venture, so the pressure on him was also very high.

It was huge. At this moment when Da Dexiang received such a victory, he was naturally ecstatic and couldn't help himself.

At this time, almost all the shops in the area from Yunqin Qixia Province to Heluo Province had already learned that Da Dexiang had snatched 30% of the customers of the 17 associated shops and had established a firm foothold. The result was a complete sensation.

All the store owners, big and small, were already shocked and amazed at what kind of person Da Dexiang was at the helm, who was so powerful.

At this time, only Dasheng Gao was the first to know about the news about the journey in Zhongzhou. Because he was also overjoyed, it was the chief shopkeeper Mu Zongli who came to report in person as soon as possible.

At this moment, facing the ecstatic Sheng Manying, Mu Zongli also had a red face and said: "Dadexiang Shopkeeper Chen has sent a message, thanking the boss for supporting Dadexiang, and specifically informing the boss that there is no need to worry.

, in the next month, Da Dexiang will have subsequent means to ensure that even if the seventeen shops follow up, they will not be able to snatch those customers back from them.

"Don't worry, there's nothing to worry about!"

Sheng Manying burst out laughing, "How could a person who can use such tricks not come up with more powerful tricks? I heard that Zhang Da, the shopkeeper of Feng Yuzhu Shop that day, was also recognized as a genius, and he was extremely fat.

, I am afraid he will lose a lot of weight in the future when he confronts Mr. Chen."

…

"What kind of soup is this?"

In Lin Xi's room in the still quiet courtyard of Dafu Town, Lin Xi looked at the thick soup in the white porcelain jar, couldn't help but raise her head, looked at Chen Feirong and asked.

This soup is extremely viscous and light, like Tremella soup that has been simmered all night, but its color is blue. The pieces inside are thick and soft, looking like pieces of tender reed meat, but they are...

There is a bit of meaty smell, it seems to be some kind of meat.

"This is Jasper Poria."

Chen Feirong looked at Lin Xi, smiled slightly, and said: "The color is a bit strange, but it has been in the pot for a long time and it is very good for your body."

Lin Xi nodded, stirred it with a silver spoon, and tasted it very sweet and soft.

"Thank you." He couldn't help but said softly.

"Sir... I already said when I left the Dragon Snake Border, everyone is yours. Why are you saying such kind words?" Chen Feirong said with a half-smile.

Lin Xi didn't blush this time, as if she was thinking about other things, she said softly in a daze: "Dade Xiang has finally gained a firm foothold, we can finally have more money, and can buy more supplements for practitioners regardless of the price.

Things. In this New Year, I still can’t go back, so I miss my friends and family even more... But some of them are coming sooner than I thought."

Hearing Lin Xi's gibbering words, Chen Feirong's eyes showed many strange looks that she didn't usually have. She turned to look out the window, nodded lightly and said: "Yes... Sir, earlier

I've been busy outside and haven't even said happy new year to you."

Lin Xi paused, looked at her, and said seriously: "Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year." Chen Feirong smiled and said seriously, but her eyes were inexplicably red, and a series of tears fell from her jade-like face.

(ps: Many of the methods used by Lin Xi are based on the path to fortune of Wang Yongqing, the god of management. If you are interested, you can find it yourself. Anyway, reality is always more yy than novels. Many jokes and stories in the book also come from some historical records.

With the integration of the story, I have read more about some unofficial histories of the Ming Dynasty. As for Wang Yongqing's life as the protagonist, what makes me speechless the most is that he first sold rice and then made a rice factory. As a result, the rice factory was forced by the Japanese.

Closed. As a result, after Japan's defeat and surrender, Taiwan revitalized its economy. After checking the banking system, he was already the richest in Taiwan. He was only 38 years old at that time. When I saw this life that was more complicated than a novel, my eggs were broken.

. But I have to admit that some of the very simple methods that we think of now, such as installment payments and using up a few months of rice to get another month of rice, are really a bit too awesome when they are ahead of the society. Everything ends in

The scary thing is that it’s too early. In the end, seeing as I’m still talking a lot of nonsense in the third update, I’ll give you more monthly votes or something.)
