Compared with a piece of soap costing 100 cents, a piece of soap that is much smaller than it costs 200 cents. Unexpectedly, the latter sells faster than the former. This shows that the consumption power of the rich
It is still very strong. As long as the product is good, there is really no need to worry about buyers. Not to mention, this thing has been used in the palace for a long time, and advertisements have been put out long ago.
Finally, there is the perfume.
In comparison, the perfume business scene is not that popular, which may be directly related to its price. The cheapest bottle costs two taels of silver, and only has about 30 ml. In this era and
There is no difference in grabbing money.
In front of the perfume sales counter, all the clerks have been replaced by young girls. Taking into account the sales group and the buying group, they can better chat with the visitors.
"This lady has a sample of perfume here. First spray the sample onto the perfume test paper, wave it gently to disperse the alcohol smell, and then smell it with your nose. Don't put your nose close to the test paper, because the smell will be very strong just after you spray it. Choose a perfume
It is best not to smell more than 3 kinds of perfumes at one time, otherwise it will easily cause olfactory confusion."
"There are also areas where the perfume should be sprayed, preferably behind the ears, under the armpits, and at the base of the legs. These areas are relatively warm and can promote the scent of the perfume. If conditions permit, you can also spray it on the trouser legs."
"It is best not to go out right after spraying the perfume, because the smell will be very strong right after the perfume is sprayed, and others will not adapt to it and become disgusted. If when you choose the perfume, the smell of the perfume feels very comfortable, then congratulations
You know, this is the best perfume for you!”
The sales girls followed Shen Ao's instructions, explained patiently, and gave various demonstrations, which attracted the girls to follow suit.
"The perfumes we have here have various main notes, such as rose type, jasmine type, mixed flower type, etc. This type of perfume is composed of several floral fragrances to form a comprehensive floral type. It has the characteristics of strong fragrance and gives people a wonderful sense of fragrance.
Feeling; plant type: some fragrant plants in the wild are used as raw materials, mixed into a light and elegant fragrance type, giving people a fresh and pleasant perfume feeling; spice type: fragrance type made from cloves, cinnamon, vanilla and other spices as raw materials, showing a

Suitable for both men and women.); Fruit type: Add fruity fragrance, suitable for girls and children.
"The duration of effectiveness of each perfume is also different. The duration of strong fragrance: two and a half to three hours; the duration of rich fragrance: two and a half hours; the duration of light fragrance: one to two hours;
Cologne (unisex): Lasts half to an hour.”
Under the eloquent words of the beautiful salesperson, the most important perfume was launched for the first time, and the effect was excellent. Soon many customers chose their favorite perfume. Some ladies from wealthy families who were not short of money also
I simply bought several flavors at once, planning to try them one by one when I go back.
The young ladies and women who came in person were choosing the perfume that suited them, which made some of the housekeepers and maids who came to see the situation for their master anxious. Faced with the high price of perfume, they found that they could not make the decision at all.
Even if they can make the decision, they don't know what flavor their young lady and madam like. They have no choice but to turn back and leave in a hurry. They want to report what they see, hear, and see to their master.
As a result, more than an hour later, in front of Guochanglong's major branches, not only did the flow of people not decrease, but there were many more sedan chairs, and more and more distinguished ladies and ladies came over.
It is conceivable that with the addition of these new forces, the popularity of perfume is already expected.
Still at the restaurant next to Shijing Street, the three bosses Jin Zhen, Xu Tu and Yin Qu were looking resentfully at the popular Guochanglong branch not far away, which was crowded with people. In addition to jealousy, they also had envy in their eyes.
There is also deep regret.
A while ago, after seeing the popularity brought by Guochanglong's low-price sales, they became jealous and really angry. The unilateral price reduction directly affected their respective businesses and profits. As a last resort, they united to fight against Guochanglong.
They tried to force the other party to restore the price and make money based on their own abilities. They even boldly asked Guochanglong to compensate them for a certain amount of losses to make up for the shortfall during this period.
I thought that with so many businessmen uniting, even if they were imperial merchants, they should bow their heads. Otherwise, Guo Changlong would be close to closing if there was no supply of goods. Unexpectedly, Guo Changlong had already made preparations.
They actually started to purchase goods from the Jiangnan area, because they were doing cash transactions and never defaulted on payment, which made the merchants in Jiangnan very excited. They all rushed to express their willingness to supply goods, and also said that they could take the initiative to reduce prices.
The businessmen in the capital have always been the richest in the entire Daqian dynasty. The reason is that they are in the capital, where the population is more densely populated, and the more people there are, the more purchasing power they have. Another reason is that they are backed by the capital.
Changlong, in many cases they don't need to spend any effort at all. They just need to bring the goods from the south at a low price and sell them to Guochanglong, and they can get a huge price difference.
Once they got used to things, they simply didn’t think about what Guochanglong would do if one day they didn’t need them to provide supplies. Otherwise, the long-term cooperation also gave these businessmen a arrogant mentality, thinking that without them and others, Guochanglong would not be able to provide supplies.
I can't play anymore.
It wasn't until reality slapped them in the face that everyone remembered that they were the weak ones.
Now, the businessmen regretted it. They finally knew what kind of behemoth they had provoked. So, some people bowed their heads. They began to look for various connections to find people who could talk to them, hoping to continue to prosper with the country.
cooperating.
There are also some people who proactively choose to lower their prices. After all, stores and employees need expenses. Without money, no one can sustain it for too long. When they choose to do this, they sadly discover that,
Even if the price is reduced, the items still cannot be sold.
Speaking of which, they dug this hole themselves.
They were the ones who spread the rumors before, saying that Guochanglong was cut off by merchants and that there would be no supply of goods. The people were so frightened that they took out all the remaining money at home and bought as many things as they could, for fear that it would be like what the outside world said.
As said, after Guochanglong is out of stock, the prices of some things will rise again.
In this way, many people have hoarded a large amount of daily necessities in their homes. Now they will not have any demand in a short period of time, so what is the role of lowering prices now?
After discovering that price reduction was not feasible, countless small businessmen had their capital chains broken and went bankrupt due to this turmoil alone. Even some powerful large businessmen were seriously injured. At this time, they finally realized that, Today's Guo Changlong is completely different from the previous Guo Changlong. They finally began to face up to and inquire about the identity of Guo Changlong's principal.
As expected, the eldest princess no longer had the final say in the country's prosperity. At least the person in front of the stage was no longer the eldest princess, but the loyal Duke Shen Ao.
It turned out to be Shen Ao, who had the reputation of a goddam little prince.
This result really surprised many people. The businessmen who originally wanted to bow their heads also had other thoughts at this time. If they were facing a royal person like the eldest princess, they would bow their heads. It's nothing embarrassing.
But they were facing Shen Ao, a fifteen-year-old boy with a bastard name. Wouldn't it look too incompetent for them to bow their heads?
The merchants got together again, and after a new round of business negotiations, Jin Zhen, as the representative, went to He Nianfeng, the grain king of the Daqian Dynasty.
They are also businessmen, and the He family is the absolute leader in the entire Daqian Dynasty. Probably because the He family controls the grain trade of the entire dynasty. Its influence is so great and widespread that in many cases even the current emperor wants to Give me some thin noodles, after all, people cannot live without food.
As a merchant who also sells grain, Jin Zhen also has a certain relationship with the He family. This time he was also the one who suffered the most severe losses among the merchants, and his net worth shrank by almost two-thirds. This time he came to see him. He Nianfeng, he also came with determination.
Sometimes the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. When Jin Zhen rushed to the He family, he didn't even enter the door. A closed door made Jin Zhen completely understand that this time the He family was not going to compete with Guo Changlong. It means being an enemy.
What Jin Zhen didn't know was that long before he came, Zhao Yuanji, as a junior of the Zhao family, had visited the He family first. As the representative figure of the Zhao family in Daliang City, Zhao Yuanji's meaning could be represented The whole Zhao family, the whole Zhao family.
Zhao Jixiang was able to come because he was acknowledging the wishes of Concubine Zhao. With the concubine's face, and the fact that the older generations of the Zhao family and the He family had a good relationship in the past, the He family would naturally not stand out at this time. Let alone Zhao Jixiang also said that in the future, Guochanglong would cooperate with the He family on the purchase of grain.
How could the He family pay attention to Jin Zhen, a "little" grain dealer when they already had face and pride?
Jin Zhen returned disappointed. After the merchants got the news, they who were still eager to make plans suddenly stopped. They had to follow Guo Changlong to lower prices, or some simply left Daliang City and moved to other places for development.
As some people say, no matter what, I can always hide away if I can't afford to offend him.
The behavior of these businessmen destined Guochanglong to be the dominant company. When the sales for three consecutive days reached more than one million and the net profit reached more than 500,000 taels, the news also attracted the attention of careerists. Their sideways glances.
