Chapter 231: The good show is yet to come
With this question, no one said anything. The merchants were cautious by nature. They knew that this thing had many benefits, but no one was willing to be the first to eat it.
But everyone was definitely shocked. Many people made up their minds to see if this Ruyi Square was really trustworthy. If it was trustworthy, they would have to deal with them in the future.
After all, doing business is the most complicated and troublesome thing. If you are not afraid of trouble, others will be. Being able to continuously simplify the transaction process is something that everyone would like to do.
The guys in Ruyi Fang don’t seem to have any intention of letting these people come here to trade in a hurry. Anyway, it is a long-term business. Sooner or later, someone will come to test the waters. When everyone gradually becomes familiar with Ruyi Fang and gradually becomes dependent on Ruyi Fang, this transaction will naturally happen.
Business is booming.
You know, many merchants still have a lot of goods in their hands. If they can't find a suitable buyer for a while, they will still ask to come to Ruyifang sooner or later. As long as they do a good job in their business, everyone will see that Ruyifang can be
Letters will naturally come in droves.
Many people stayed under the wall and were reluctant to leave. In fact, Ruyifang came out with such a thing. Anyone with a little discernment knew that this thing would definitely change the business landscape once it came out. At this time, everyone couldn't help but start to wonder, why Ruyifang launched this business?
Where do these people come from? They have such a profound background and can come up with such novel trading methods. They want to do long-term business, not just a small business.
After listening to the discussion of these people, Jiajing immediately understood Xu Qian's intention of launching this business. He couldn't help but be shocked. If Xu Qian was really allowed to do it, then all the merchants from all over the world who came to Beijing would have to let Ruyifang pass.
How much profit is there in Yishou? Jiajing couldn't calculate it, but based on the profit from the certificate of commendation, I am afraid that the scale of this business alone is not under the certificate of commendation. Could it be that it takes in millions of silver every year?
Jiajing's eyes were dark and profound. He looked at the numbers on the panel. From the certificate of commendation to the current Ruyifang, they all gave him great inspiration. In the past, although he was smart, he still had limitations after all.
The education he received was too traditional, and it was only now that he realized that anything with the word "shang" attached to it, as long as it is done well, is a mountain of gold or silver.
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, our ancestors put the word "Shang" at the bottom. Perhaps it is because the wealth accumulated by this merchant came too quickly. It is not that the merchant's morals are defective, but that if the merchant is indulged, serious consequences may occur.
problem.
It's just... so what if it's blocked? If it's blocked, it's not like gambling with billions of dollars is everywhere. Since it can't be blocked, you might as well learn Xu Qian's method to ease the situation, just like a certificate of commendation or Ruyi Square, which not only creates restrictions for merchants, but also at the same time
On the basis of this restriction, we also provide them with convenience so that they can pay their money willingly.
Jiajing remained silent and quietly sat down in a corner of the hall. He calculated in his mind that if the certificate of commendation from the Highway Bureau was issued here, the attraction to merchants would be increased by 20%. This teahouse where merchants gathered would be able to provide merchants with
If the attraction is increased by another 10%, then if this business can be successful now, it can increase the attraction by at least 50%. But what else can Xu Qian do?
Based on his understanding of Xu Qian, Xu Qian would never just come out with this little thing. This Ruyifang might have a back-up plan.
At this moment, a clerk put a stack of newspapers on the cabinet at the front desk, and then a sign came in, 'Da Ming Business News, free to collect.'
At first, only a few sharp-eyed merchants tried to get one. Others saw it and went to get it one after another. In fact, everyone may not want to take advantage of this, but they just think that this Ruyi Square is too mysterious and always want to explore it.
after all.
More and more people went to pick up the newspaper. Jiajing saw it and joined in. He picked up the newspaper and returned to his original seat to open it. The top part was different from that of Ming Pao. Naturally, he couldn't see the article.
The article was talking about the news that Henan was hit by a disaster and food prices rose by 30% every day.
Immediately afterwards, there was an analysis article on the price fluctuations. It was said that the price of raw silk has fluctuated greatly this year. At the beginning of the year, the price of high-quality raw silk was only three or two cents, but now, in Sichuan, Liaodong and other places, the price of high-quality raw silk has risen.
At the price of five taels and three cents, the supply of raw silk in these two places has exceeded the demand, and I am afraid that this rise and fall will continue until the end of the year.
In addition, there is actually a map in the sub-page, which depicts several trading routes, where you can board a boat, and where you can walk. Under the map, there are lines of small words marked, saying that river transportation is tense in summer.
, ship prices have skyrocketed, or a bridge somewhere has collapsed, stranding business travelers.
These messages made Jiajing guess that it was impossible to collect so much information based on Ruyifang alone. The only person in the world who could do this was the factory guard. Xu Qian probably relied on the factory guard's relationship, but
Then again, Xuchang is a member of the Jinyiwei family, so it is not too difficult to get such seemingly trivial but irrelevant information.
He squinted his eyes and listened carefully to the comments of other merchants.
As a result, the businessman sitting on one side was amazed at this business newspaper at first, and then sighed: "If this business newspaper had been published earlier, it would be one or two silver a copy, and I would have to buy it. Take a look, I will
A few days ago, I heard people from Liaodong say that the price of silk has indeed risen.
It reached four taels and nine cents of silver, but the hearsay information was unreliable after all. They came all the way from Liaodong, and the delay along the way would take at least one or two months. Now the silk price in Liaodong has risen to this point, so just rush to this news.
, I wonder how many merchants want to transport silk to Liaodong."
"There is also this trade route. When I came here, I took the Tianjin Wei road. I didn't know that the bridge there had collapsed. As a result, I took a detour of hundreds of miles in vain. Alas, the journey of several hundred miles was delayed for at least seven or eight days.
It takes a lot of effort, but the expenses along the way are not small.”
The merchants suddenly became excited. Maybe these words were not important to other people. The collapse of the bridge had nothing to do with them. The skyrocketing price of silk in Liaodong had nothing to do with them. There was also the disaster in Henan. That was all.
It is a matter of concern to the government, but to merchants, this information is just money, just a piece of paper. If used well, I don't know how much time can be saved and how many business opportunities can be gained.
"This newspaper is actually free? It's really rare. If I were to sell it for three taels of silver, I'm afraid there would be many people buying it. The people from Ruyifang are really generous."
"Yes, yes, the owner of this Ruyifang is extraordinary and certainly not a simple person."
"Yes, look here, why is it blank?"
Interested people discovered that there was a blank space at the end of the page. Immediately, everyone was attracted by a line of small words at the bottom, which read: "If there is a large transaction listed in Ruyi Square, the business newspaper will advertise it widely."
."
This means that if someone wants to ship a large amount of goods, and the shipment volume is huge, Ruyifang will not only list it here, but also put the information in the business newspaper.
It is conceivable that this kind of business newspaper that does not take a penny will definitely become popular all over the world. As long as you are a big businessman, are you afraid that your goods will not be able to find sales channels? At the same time, this information from Ruyifang also reveals their strength and determination.
, let me tell you that no matter how big the goods are, no matter how valuable they are, as long as they are registered with Ruyifang, they will be able to sell them for you.
Just seeing this news, the merchants' trust in Ruyifang increased a bit.
He is not afraid of the government, has a strong background, and has launched various services to collect information from all over the world, and all this information is free of charge. The merchants travel all over the country, and they have a little bit of discernment. Naturally, they know that this Ruyifang must be doing long-term business.
It is impossible to covet your small goods and lose your credit.
Doing business is all about trust, especially big business, where trust comes first. Only when people believe in you can the business last long.
Jiajing couldn't help but smile bitterly, and couldn't help but think: "Looking at the reaction of these businessmen, this newspaper alone has become more attractive to the businessmen. Hey...how many ideas does this Xu Qian have in his heart? These
I have never heard of this stuff, and I don’t even dare to think about it.”
While the merchants are discussing the matter, it is obvious that the good show is yet to come.
Several waiters brought stacks of books, and then someone stood behind the counter and hung a sign on the counter: 'Talent Recruitment'.
Jiajing's curiosity had reached its limit this time. He put down the newspaper and followed the crowd to the counter. He didn't need to ask. Naturally, a businessman asked, "What is the name of this talent recruitment?"
The waiter had a Shandong accent, but his voice was smooth, and he said loudly: "If you need help, such as temporarily recruiting porters or guards, or if you need guides or accountants, you can come here for inquiries. We will help you
Try your best to register all kinds of people and record their residences
Address, their family relationship and their daily behavior. For example, Zhang lives in the Outer East City and is an accountant. He has a wife and three children at home. He used to be the shopkeeper at Fengru Inn. If you need an accountant,
We only need to check this book and we will naturally know who you need. Now there are many people on the market.
There are a lot of scammers on the Internet. When you go out and recruit people, you are afraid of meeting someone with dirty hands or bad intentions. But when you come to us, it is different. Their addresses, family relationships, and past experiences are all recorded.
, there will definitely be a large number of people registering in Ruyifang in the future, and you have to use
People can also rest assured that if these people violate laws and disciplines, as long as they complain to Ruyifang, Ruyifang will naturally come forward for you. Once the investigation is clear, these people will be punished. If the circumstances are serious, they will be found and sent to the official for disposal.
