Chapter 825: Arousing dissatisfaction among colleagues
"Don't mess around with Dongfanghong, so as to save everyone's energy." Wenxuan said again.
Xi Yu frowned and further advised: "Why is this a struggle? Wenguo has always been a witness to friendship. He is a good place to open a shop. We should pay attention to it. We should not fall into the norm. Dongfang Hong knows it, so he must also look forward to making fun."
Wenxuan was unmoved and shook his head to refute.
"Friendship is not in this form. With that time, I spend more time optimizing in-house services and meticulously crafting the details of the hourly room is the right way. If Dongfang Hong comes, I will only talk about the business matters, and I will avoid this warm pot. I hope you can do it."
Seeing this, Xi Yu sighed helplessly and spread his hands.
"Forget it, you have made up your mind, and I won't force it. I just hope that your business will flourish and don't let this persistence down."
As the morning light broke on the weekend, Wenxuan rushed to the inn with a full spirit, holding a stack of carefully written flyers in his arms.
These flyers were selected thickly, and the words on them were vigorous and powerful, without losing elegance. The words and sentences were carefully discussed by her repeatedly, and she explained the wonderfulness of the inn, the uniqueness of the hourly room, and the surprise of the opening of this opening.
She stood at the door of the store, directing several hired servants, with bright eyes and serious expressions.
"Everyone, this leaflet distribution is crucial. It must be delivered to the lively corner of the market, at every table in the teahouse and the winery, at the school and the door of the escort agency. In short, if there are too many people, don't miss any one."
After saying that, he also demonstrated how to greet him with a smile, handed the flyer to passers-by and explained the discounts.
"Customer, our inn has been newly opened. It is free to stay in the first three days. There is also a lottery. The prizes include exquisite porcelain and soft quilts, and you will have the opportunity to win a free night of accommodation. Such a good thing, our family is the only one, don't miss it when you pass by!"
The servants obeyed the orders, scattered and shouted enthusiastically. For a moment, the good news of the inn opening echoed on the streets and alleys.
Wenxuan turned around and entered the store, carefully checked the arrangement of the lobby. The red silk was hung neatly, the large turntable of the lottery was wiped shiny, and the lottery tickets in the box were stuffed.
Looking at the busy and hopeful scene in front of her, she was ready to rub her hands and said to herself: "This grand event will definitely make the inn famous and take root in this city."
As noon approached, crowds of people were surging on the streets. Many people were holding leaflets, curiosity and expectation, and rushed towards the inn, and the threshold was almost broken.
So Wenxuan was smiling and welcomed guests from all directions. The noise and exclamations in the inn were intertwined, and it seemed that he had foresaw a brilliant future.
Xiao Cui jumped into the inn, her eyes dripping into the hall, watching the crowd coming and going, actively participating in the lottery scene, and said with admiration.
"Miss, you are so capable. This opening has made a booming career. Such promotional methods and novel ideas are hard to imagine. You really have a good mind!"
Wenxuan was embarrassed by being praised, scratched his head, with a humble smile on his face, but muttered to himself: These methods were just ordinary routines used by merchants in his previous life, and he just copied them and borrowed some "light of experience".
But looking at Xiao Cui's admiration, she knew that she could not say this and said, "I just want the inn to be known and recognized soon, and I have to work harder. In the future, I have to rely on everyone to support and serve with sincerity."
Xiao Cui nodded repeatedly, and approached the big turntable with great enthusiasm. Seeing the lucky guest winning the prize, he clapped his hands and cheered excitedly, shouting that Wenxuan would tell you what new tricks would be next.
Wenxuan smiled but didn't say anything, looking at the crowd that was still pouring in outside the store, hoping that this good momentum would continue for a long time and steadily stand the inn sign in this fireworks market.
There is an inn not far away.
The owner Han Donglai sat in his inn account room, his brows frowned into the character "chuan". Hearing the people coming and going outside, few people stepped into his own threshold. When he thought that Wenxuan's inn has been very popular recently, the fire went up.
"Hmph, how can a newcomer be so popular!" He shook his sleeves and called the waiter.
Grudge his teeth and order.
"You go to the inn of Wenjia now, pretend to be an ordinary guest, and look through the situation inside, from the guest room layout to the hospitality method, to the Raoshi lottery, and free check-in, let me see carefully."
The waiter nodded repeatedly, changed his outfit quickly, and got caught in the crowd and entered Wenxuan's inn.
He pretended to wander around, but his eyes were not idle. He looked at the hourly room and the layout was novel. The previous dynasty's style objects were arranged in an orderly manner, which attracted the surprise of the guests.
Looking at the lobby again, the guy greeted the people with a smile, served tea and water very attentively. The lottery room was filled with people, shouting and cheering, and it was so lively that it was unreasonable.
After a while, the waiter jogged back to the store, panting and reporting like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
"Shopkeeper, the inn of Wen's family is so weird! The guest rooms are decorated in ancient times, but they attract customers very much. The opening and rewards are extremely powerful. The first three days of staying for free has attracted everyone. Now the reputation is almost spread throughout the city, and our business has been stolen a lot!"
After hearing this, Han Donglai's face turned red and he slapped the table with a "slap" and his eyes widened.
"Okay, she acted like this to kill us. She must not sit idly by and think of ways to give her some color!" After that, she was thinking about various "regulation" plans and her eyes were filled with viciousness.
After listening to the waiter's report, Han Donglai's originally frowning brows unfolded instantly, and a contemptuous sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Hmph, it's just two women who are in charge, and one of them is often missing. Only a girl is left to support the field. How capable can she be?"
"It's not that easy to gain a foothold in this industry. I want them to know that this inn industry is not something that can be eaten by just fiddling with some tricks or making some gimmicks."
Han Donglai stopped, turned around, hooked his fingers to the waiter, lowered his voice, "You go, find more street gangsters, give them some benefits, let them go to the store every few days to make trouble, disrupt the customers and the business cannot continue. See how long they can last, and they will be able to leave by the time they will be obediently rolling the bed and leaving."
The waiter hesitated and said stuttered: "Shopkeeper, if this matter is a big deal, the government will notice it..."
Han Donglai glared at him and spat, "What are you afraid of! Do it secretly, your hands and feet are clean, and you can't make a big mess. Just do it as you do it, and I will take care of it if something happens."
The waiter had no choice but to respond and hurried out to look for someone.
Han Donglai looked outside the door, as if he had seen the inn door of Wenxuan, and his face was full of pride.
The waiter was about to raise his foot to go out, but Han Donglai raised his hand and called him, frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he waved his hand.
"Forget it, don't act rashly first. It's better to be courteous and then soldiers. I'll go to explore the truth and see what magic the inn has to attract all the guests."
The night was as dark as ink. Han Donglai was wearing a black robe, his figure hid in the dark, and walked towards Wenxuan's inn.
At this time, the candlelight in the inn was swaying, and Wenxuan was checking the accounts with Xiao Cui, and the abacus beads crackled.
Xiao Cui raised her eyes and saw Wenxuan feeling a little tired. She said with a distressed feeling: "Miss, you can't go back later if you don't have class tomorrow, but you're here by bike, and the journey is not close, so it's too hard."
Wenxuan put down his pen and smiled.
"It's okay, as long as the inn can get better and better, this is nothing."
Suddenly, Han Donglai stepped into the inn, followed by the waiter, who was carrying a few boxes of exquisitely packaged gifts.
Han Donglai's face was filled with smiles, and he bowed slightly, saying aloud: "Boss Wen, I have long admired Daming. I am Han Donglai. I also run an inn not far away. I'm here to visit today."
As he said that, he signaled the waiter to put the gift on the table next to him.
"I heard that Boss Wen's inn has been opened and its business is booming. I admire him. I want to come over to make friends and take care of each other in the future. I hope Boss Wen will not dislike this small meeting gift."
Wenxuan hurriedly greeted him with a smile and bowed his hand to return the gift.
"Oh, Shopkeeper Han is so polite. I am the most willing to make friends. Since you have the intention, I will definitely make this friend."
As he said that, he asked curiously again.
"I wonder where Manager Han's inn is?"
Han Donglai explained in detail the location of his inn.
Wenxuan nodded with a smile, glanced at the gift on the table, and said, "Making friends is about being in love, there is no need for this gift. You might as well take it back, otherwise I will feel unhappy."
When Han Donglai heard this, he waved his hand and pretended to be displeased, saying, "Where is Boss Wen? It's the first time I'm here, some small gifts are just to express my feelings. If you don't accept it, you will not give me the face of Han Donglai. I hope Boss Wen must accept it."
Wenxuan looked embarrassed, but he understood in his heart that "I will not enter the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble", but he still shirked.
"Owner Han, I have received your wish, but I really can't accept this gift. If you really want to make friends with me, let's put aside these red tape and have a good chat."
The smile on Han Donglai's face faded instantly, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
He leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice but said aggressively, "Boss Wen, don't you really know what I meant? As soon as your inn opened, you have created so many tricks and recruited all the guests, which makes it difficult for us colleagues to do."
Wenxuan's face changed and his brows frowned. He knew in his heart that the other party was afraid that the visitor was not good, but he still pretended to be calm and said in a deep voice: "Boss Han, I just used some new methods to start my own business. Everyone can attract customers based on their own abilities. What's wrong with this?"
Han Donglai snorted coldly, hugged his arms, and walked slowly around Wenxuan, and said while turning: "Everyone can rely on their abilities? Humph, you checked in for free in the first three days and also had the lottery, which made the guests dizzy. This is not a regular business method. It disrupted the rules of this industry and caused our original customers to lose. Do you think this is appropriate?"
Wenxuan frowned even more and argued: "I'm just opening a business and rewarding guests. I want everyone to know as soon as possible. In the future, I still have to rely on real service and quality to gain a foothold. How can I mess up the rules?"
Han Donglai stopped, stared at Wenxuan like a knife, and said coldly: "Boss Wen, if you are tactful, stop those fancy activities. Everyone is in peace, otherwise, huh, there will be a headache for you in the future."
The words were full of threat, which made the originally harmonious atmosphere instantly tense.
"This is impossible." Wenxuan said.
Han Donglai's face was gloomy and said to Wenxuan in a tough tone: "Boss Wen, I won't go around with you anymore. You'd better leave here immediately and find another place to open a store, so as not to affect our business here. But not only do I have this idea, but many of the surrounding owners all complain about your approach and hope that you can leave quickly."
When Wenxuan heard this, his face turned red with anger, his chest fluttered violently, and he retorted loudly: "Han Donglai, why are you? This place is not yours. What qualifications do you have to drive me away? I rely on my own ability to manage it and did not do anything shameful."
Han Donglai sneered and said arrogantly: "Hmph, today I am giving gifts and making friends, which is to give you face. Don't be ungrateful. If you don't listen to your advice and continue to do your own thing, then I will join all my colleagues to boycott you, so that you can't stay in this industry at all. Just wait and see."
After saying that, he shook his sleeves and left quickly without looking back. His back showed a sense of ruthlessness, as if he was sure that Wenxuan would defeat him under their pressure.
Wenxuan looked at Han Donglai's departure back and gritted his teeth and said angrily: "It's not that easy to drive me away. I want to see what methods you can use!"
Wenxuan's eyes were full of indomitableness and determination, and there was no intention of retreating at all.
After Han Donglai and the others left, Xiao Cui said angrily: "It's so hateful. How can there be such a domineering and unreasonable person? We are doing business in a dedicated manner, but they come to threaten it like this."
Wenxuan also looked angry and nodded and responded: "That's true. I originally wanted to make friends in this industry and help each other to do a good job in business, but they were so rude."
Xiao Cui frowned, leaned over to Wenxuan, and said anxiously: "Miss, you are so familiar with the Prime Minister. That Prime Minister is powerful and powerful. Why not let the Prime Minister capture this villain so that he can cause trouble for us again."
Wenxuan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "It's not that step yet. If we bother the Prime Minister now, we would be too impatient. Let's see what kind of means they will use in the future. It's really a last resort. It's not too late to say it when there is no way to deal with it."
"Miss, we are all weak women. You may think that you don't rely on the Prime Minister and solve it yourself, but what if they really unite and are unreasonable to us, what should we do?"
Wenxuan gritted his teeth, and a stubbornness and determination in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Forget it, Xiao Cui, what you said makes sense. I can't take the risk with the inn's hard work. When I go back tomorrow, I will report this to Xi Yu in the original form to see if he can deal with it."
After saying that, Wenxuan looked at the night outside the inn, feeling both angry and helpless, and secretly hoped that there would be a proper solution to this matter.
In the early morning of the next day, the morning light was slightly dewed, sprinkled on the lintel of the inn.
Wenxuan got up early, cleaned up briefly, and then prepared to go out. She looked at Xiao Cui and comforted her, "Xiao Cui, don't be afraid, just wait for me here. I will go to the Prime Minister right now and report this matter to the Prime Minister clearly. I will definitely find a solution."
Xiao Cui nodded in a strong manner, but her eyes were slightly red. She was filled with worry and fear, but she said, "Miss, be careful on the way, go early and come back early."
Wenxuan responded, turned around and rode on the bicycle, pedaled hard, and the bike went along the trail.
Xiao Cui stood at the entrance of the inn, looking at the gradually disappearing back, and the fear in her heart surged up like a tide.
She thought with some annoyance that she should have asked the lady to go with her and have a support.
But then I thought about how to cause trouble at this time, so I could only bit my lips and stay here with my teeth.
But the hands were unconsciously clutching the corners of their clothes, looking around from time to time nervously, hoping that Wenxuan would come back soon.
At this moment, Han Donglai summoned the owners of several inns around to the backyard of his inn. Everyone sat together, their faces were gloomy and angry.
Han Donglai cleared his throat and spoke first: "Everyone, I believe everyone has noticed that as soon as the Wen family's inn opened, they came up with those tricks and snatched away all the customers who should have entered our store. This business is becoming more and more difficult."
Everyone nodded, all with resentment on their faces, and they agreed with each other.
Han Donglai continued: "Yesterday I prepared some gifts and came to my house in person, thinking of kind words to persuade them to make them more tactful. Leaving here and going to open a shop elsewhere is also a way to save face for them, but who knew that the woman was a rude person and didn't take my words seriously at all."
When several other inn owners heard this, they became even more furious.
One of them slammed the table suddenly, stood up, and shouted: "Hmph, don't eat toast, you'll be punished for wine! We can't just watch our business be ruined by them. We must give them some colors to let them know that the rules in this industry cannot be broken casually."
"Yes, you must not spare them!" Another boss also responded, "We have to think of some ways to make their inn unable to continue, and see how they are still arrogant."
Everyone discussed it all over the place, their eyes were full of ruthlessness, and they were planning various tricks to deal with Wenxuan Inn, and they were determined to pull out this "thorn in the eye" so as to protect their business.
Han Donglai grimly faced and gritted his teeth and suggested, "Since they are so ungrateful, there are only two women who are managing the inn. In my opinion, we might as well just smash their store directly. See how arrogant they are. If there is no store at that time, they will naturally have to leave here in shame."
