"Do you know the reason why your business is not big or strong?"
Before cheating, Li Xiang first raised a question.
"Boss Li, stop being so secretive and tell me quickly!"
However, everyone does not give in to this face, they are all business people, no matter how big or small, they always have some experience in doing business.
When it comes to fighting, they are no match for Li Heihu, but when it comes to business, even the ten Li Xiangs put together are no match for any of them.
Every other line is like a mountain, it's not just words.
This guy, a layman, was commanding them. He was really just trying to please others and had no idea what he was talking about.
"The essence of doing business is actually sales and recommending your own products, but what is the essence of sales?"
Li Xiang smiled slightly, took out a brush from his arms, and said to a calligraphy and painting shop owner: "You sell antiques and calligraphy. If you sell this brush to me, what will you do?"
"Uh... this pen was made by a master from the royal capital. The pen barrel is made of purple bamboo wood, and the tip is..."
"Okay, you can stop."
Raising his hand, Li Xiang interrupted the calligraphy and painting shop owner's impromptu speech, turned to a rich-looking middle-aged man and said, "How can you introduce me to buying this pen?"
"This is a very good brush. You can use it to write and collect it..."
"Stop, come on!"
He waved his hand to stop the other party from talking again, and looked at Song Yuanshan. So far, this person was the businessman with whom he had the closest cooperation, and he was also the richest businessman he could come into contact with.
To describe the Song family's assets as "millions of dollars" is an underestimation. The family has a wide range of interests, including shares in shipping, restaurants, and gouache shops.
If it weren't for the fact that in today's era, businessmen have no status, and even if they have money, they can't hire those heroes with strong martial arts skills, Lao Song will not be beaten in the face when facing martial arts.
"Sir, there is a contract here for you to sign."
After thinking for a moment, Song Yuanshan came up with a solution. He took a blank piece of paper from his entourage and handed it over.
"But I don't have a pen."
Li Xiang spread his hands and looked embarrassed.
"There happens to be one here, it only costs fifteen copper coins."
Song Yuanshan handed over the brush and smiled easily.
He already vaguely understood what this little brother wanted to express. After all, he had been in the business world for most of his life. After just a little thought, he understood the meaning.
"Great, I bought this pen."
Nodding slightly, Li Xiang looked at everyone again and asked, "What did you see?"
"..."
Everyone was silent. After a while, someone raised his hand and said weakly: "I want to ask a question. What should I do if the other party doesn't cooperate?"
That is, what should I do if people don’t cooperate?
They looked at Li Xiang like a fool. Although they didn't say anything with their mouths, they already despised this person in their hearts.
Others are thoughtful and savor it slowly.
"Elm knot."
Li Xiang shook his head and sighed: "This is called the relationship between supply and demand. The reason why people want to buy your things is because there is a need. This is the essential reason. So, what should we do if there is no demand? If there is no demand, we have to create it."
"I see!"
Everyone suddenly realized it, and some people were still scratching their heads and wondering: "You all understand?"
"I don't understand, but what this guy said is true. You all seem to understand it completely. If I don't cooperate, won't I look out of place?"
Some people spread their hands and looked as if they were taking it for granted.
"Ahem."
Seeing that the scene was a little noisy, Li Xiang coughed twice and said: "Everyone, please be quiet. What I mean by this is that if you want to make a fortune, we need to work together to form a complete industrial chain. For example, you are a wine seller, but you have no money."
Your monthly sales are limited because of your sales channels, and you are a restaurant owner. Since you are a small business, you can’t find a suitable supplier, or you can’t agree on a price, so your income cannot be optimal. So if you two
Cooperation can maximize profits.
And our Qingzhu Gang can provide you with a guarantee. In addition to being exposed when someone makes trouble every day, we can also provide protection on some important occasions. For example, if you are engaged in shipping and there are some shady things in the transaction, you are worried about being hacked by the other party.
It’s up to us to take the lead at this time. Of course, the cost will be calculated separately.”
After his introduction, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, especially those small shop owners. Those rich families with big businesses naturally wouldn't care about petty profits, but for them, the oil and water flowing out of those big families
That's enough for them to eat for a long time.
If this alliance is established, the biggest profits will actually be made by the vendors. As for the wealthy families, they will be very excited about the support provided by the Qingzhu Gang.
In the past, they had to face this kind of thing independently. Even if they were ganged up on, they had no choice but to remain silent and eat coptis. There was no other way.
Even the Qingzhu Gang only provides their basic industries with protection from being disrupted, but the situation today is different. If the Qingzhu Gang can send people to help them, then many troubles will be solved, and some places that they have not been able to set foot in before can also be solved.
You might consider adding a bit of a kick.
"If the Qingzhu Gang can really give us enough support, we should add some extra money."
"If Mr. Li is the guarantee, then I'll have no problem."
The businessmen were talking a lot and their faces were full of excitement.
Although Li Xiang himself only controls Qihua Tower, he has some influence at most on Jiuching Street, but his reputation may not be as useful in other places.
But the Qingzhu Gang is a gang that can be found in most of Beibo City, and only a few forces and families such as the Santan Society can compete with it.
If they get help from Qingzhu, their business will definitely be able to reach a higher level, and the cost is completely within their tolerance.
"Oh, the vendors provide supplies to the restaurant. It is enough for the two parties to contact each other directly. Why do I need your consent? Also, Li Xiang, can you really represent the Qingzhu Gang?"
However, just when everyone was about to be convinced, a mocking voice came from outside the door.
"Boss Zhao, you really can't come in, Master Li will be angry."
"If you go any further, we won't be polite!"
"Fuck you, uncle! Who are you? If you dare to be presumptuous in front of Mr. Zhao, get out of here!"
A burst of noise suddenly sounded, accompanied by shouts and retreats from his men.
As you can imagine, a brief conflict was already taking place outside, but after a moment, a large group of strong men armed with machetes came in supporting a man with unusually muscular muscles.
This person is none other than the leader of the Qingzhu Gang, Zhao Gang.
Next to him, there were many Qihualou thugs lying on the ground wailing, obviously they had been badly beaten in the conflict just now.
"Long time no see, Li Xiang."
Zhao Gang grinned and stared at the expressionless young man who was still sitting in the main seat. He had been enemies with this guy for a long time. If the gang rules hadn't been laid out here, he would have taken action long ago.
However, it is not allowed to act blatantly, but it is still possible to cause trouble.
"Zhong Can, what did I tell you? Could it be that the threshold of our Qihua Building is such that even cats and dogs can enter?"
However, Li Xiang, who was sitting in the main seat, was very calm and turned to question his deputy.
"Sorry Master Li, I'll kick them out right now."
Although the visitor was a big boss, Zhong Can didn't give in at all. He first expressed his apology slightly, and then motioned to the younger brother next to him with his eyes.
The younger brother nodded understandingly, then took out a whistle from his pocket and blew it hard.
Phew~
In an instant, a group of gangsters armed with weapons poured out of some rooms in Qihua Building. There were six or seven people in each room. On the first floor alone, more than 30 people poured out at once. On the second floor,
As we went up, people kept rushing down.
The huge crowd immediately made the spacious venue crowded.
The sudden change made the vendors present at the party panic. They did not expect that what they thought was just an ordinary banquet would be met with an explosive scene of a head-on conflict between two gang leaders.
If it weren't for the occasion, they would actually be quite willing to take advantage of it. These two are both big leaders of the Qingzhu Gang. One is an old man who has been fighting since childhood, and the other is a ruthless rising star. Who wins and who loses?
Very selling point.
But this presupposes that they are not present!
The total number of thugs on both sides is almost 150, and all of them are armed with machetes. If a fight breaks out, they will be affected if they don't take it easy. Who will not panic?
"Don't worry, everyone. This is just a small accident. It will be resolved soon. Then we will eat meat and drink."
In the chaotic situation, Li Xiang did not panic. Instead, he raised his glass of wine with a smile and drank it all in one gulp.
Everyone looked at each other in shock, but no one moved their chopsticks. This scene was really unbearable.
"There are rules within the gang that prohibit internal fighting. Li Xiang, I didn't take action against you. And don't forget, Zuo Lengchan will leave Beibo City soon. The old gang leader is already old. Guess what happened to the gang leader in the end?"
Who will the position fall to?
Now if you give in and beg for mercy, I might consider sparing your life, but if you are stubborn, haha."
Zhao Gang sneered. When he learned from his boss Chi Li that Zuo Lengchan was about to leave the Qingzhu Gang, in his opinion, the opportunity for revenge had already appeared.
In his eyes, this guy is as good as fish.
As a result, he acted more and more unscrupulously.
"are you an idiot?"
Li Xiang tilted his head. If the person coming was Chi Li, he would still be wary of the three-pointer. After all, the opponent was an old martial artist who had been fighting since childhood. His strength had reached the top of the second-rate masters many years ago.
Even if he has mastered the Black Evil Palm and has mastered the first level of Golden Body Kung Fu, he still wouldn't dare to just pat his chest and say he is better than that person.
But if the target were this person named Zhao, he would be stunned.
"You...well, I hope you can be so arrogant in the future."
His face was slightly stiff, and then Zhao Gang snorted coldly, turned around and left. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the general situation to embarrass him this time, but he didn't expect that he would not accept this trick at all.
Since you can't get any benefits, you can only withdraw first. There is no use in staying, and others will laugh at you.
As for a real head-on fight? He is not afraid. After all, although it was rumored that Li Xiang killed the cadres of the Santanhui, it was based on sneak attacks, poisoning, and sieges. As long as he was not careless, he could face it head-on.
In a fight, he is completely confident that he can beat Li Xiang.
How can a yellow-haired boy who has only practiced martial arts for a few days compare with him who has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years, no matter how powerful he is? This chapter has been completed!
