Chapter 12 My surname is Lu and my name is Fengxian
Seeing the crowd of people vying for membership at the counter, His Highness Prince Chun even wanted to applaud. As expected, it was absolutely perfect, and he was truly convinced.
Yang Xuan's idea of replenishing memberships actually made sense if he thought about it carefully, but he still felt that there were other ways to do it, and he hadn't figured it out for a while.
He happened to see Fan Jian on the side and wanted to sneak away quietly while there were many people. He curled his lips and ordered the guards to stop him.
Fan Jian dared to act mischievously among ordinary people, even ordinary yamen, but the two guards in front of him were from the Hubu yamen.
He knew how much he weighed, and who he could offend and who he couldn't offend. He was well-connected, and when he was caught by two guards from the Household Department, he could only collapse on the ground like a puddle of soft mud and pretend to be dead.
"Do you have money or not?"
"No..." Fan Jian's face was full of tears, and his voice was full of tears. It was over. Mr. Fan's lifelong reputation was lost.
"Take him back to get the money."
His Royal Highness King Chun gave an order, and two guards escorted him away.
Yang Xuan naturally did not forget the guy who caused the trouble, but when His Highness King Chun took care of it, he bowed his hands to express his gratitude.
After a lot of work, Yang Xuan gradually handed over the registration work to the clerk.
"Your Majesty, why don't we go upstairs and have a cup of tea and wait for your Majesty to return?"
"good."
His Royal Highness Prince Chun smiled slightly, this is a good relationship.
There is no space occupied by the kitchen upstairs, and it is more spacious than downstairs. The tables and chairs are not in place yet, only the original Eight Immortals table is placed, which is where he usually counts money and discusses with shopkeeper Zhou.
The two of them sat down. Yang Xuan raised his hands and asked, "My younger brother, Yang Xuan, I don't know the name of the guest officer yet."
"You're welcome, my surname is Lu and my first name is Fengxian."
"puff……"
Yang Xuan, who had just taken a sip of water, spat it out: "Your name is Lu Fengxian?"
Because this was an unknown dynasty, he almost thought that the person in front of him was the unparalleled flying general Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian.
Fortunately, His Royal Highness Prince Chun looks like a gentle and elegant gentleman, which is very different from the image of the powerful general of the Three Kingdoms.
"Sorry, sorry, there is also a man named Lu Fengxian in my hometown."
"It doesn't matter." His Royal Highness Prince Chun was also a little puzzled that he could encounter someone with the same name even if he made up a name casually.
"Shopkeeper Yang, I'm very interested in the membership recharge you just mentioned. It stands to reason that your fried noodles are so popular, why would you make such a move to give away profits? This does not mean that you have lost your profits in vain.
?"
In fact, this marketing method is not surprising. Since he has already used it, it can be quickly figured out and imitated by others. Therefore, since people ask sincerely, there is no need to hide it.
"No, no, although it seems that I have lost profits, I can receive a large sum of money at once, and the most important thing is that I have bound the customer. After all, only I recognize the money deposited with me.
"
"High." His Royal Highness Prince Chun raised his thumb: "Shopkeeper Yang's way of doing business is really extraordinary."
"Brother Lu is so impressed." Yang Xuan waved his hand and said, "You also have another purpose for doing this, that is, you can quickly recover the money, and then I can open another branch, and avoid so many people queuing up every day.
, those guests who couldn’t be ranked were simply lost in vain.”
When he heard that Yang Xuan wanted to open a branch, His Highness Prince Chun resisted the idea of joining the business. After all, the relationship hadn't reached that point yet, so he could only praise him a few more times.
As for the method of making salt, he was not in a hurry to ask about it. He could only bring it up when the relationship got to that point. This Yang Xuan must be used for his own use.
The two of them didn't talk about anything in depth. After all, it was taboo to talk casually. After chatting for a while, the guards came back with Fan Jian.
Originally, Fan Jian refused to come back even if he gave him money, but His Highness Prince Chun had told him that he must be brought back and pay the bill in person.
This is naturally to scare the monkeys and let other rogues see the consequences of looking for trouble here.
This Fan Jian, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold his head high in the gangster circle from now on, and will have to live an honest life.
But since he lived a down-to-earth life, it didn't take long before he found an opportunity to become prosperous. Of course, this is a story later.
His Royal Highness King Chun said goodbye and left, and Yang Xuan continued to direct the men to work.
It wasn't until the evening when Yang Xuan and Shopkeeper Zhou were settling the accounts that they suddenly realized that today's income had actually reached 382 taels of silver.
Among them, there are more than 300 people who recharge their membership cards.
Most of these recharge members are gold members. Those who are not short of money will naturally recharge the highest level. Even those who can only recharge silver will have to recharge gold for the sake of face. The second is to recharge one level.
After all, these people also have spending power, but they are not so wealthy.
Shopkeeper Zhou’s hands were shaking a little as he counted the money. It has only been open for five days.
I've already paid back twice as much.
After doing business for so many years, I have never even heard of it, let alone seen it.
"Lao Zhou, don't be excited. Let's go visit the store in the next two days. We can start preparations for the branch I mentioned before."
Shopkeeper Zhou could only nod. He couldn't say anything. The only thing he was glad about was that he chose to be friends with Yang Xuan instead of continuing to fight against him.
Otherwise, if Yang Xuan opened a shop opposite him to sell fried noodles with soybean paste, would he still have a way to survive?
"In the carpenter's workshop, we will add another fifty sets of tables and chairs. Our new shop will be ready by then, and the tables and chairs have to wait. We also have this membership card, let them make it. The bronze membership card should be painted bronze.
The silver ones are brushed with silver, the gold ones are brushed with gold, and our store name and denomination are engraved on the front, as well as the number of the membership card. The back is left blank and engraved with a few seals. After the customer comes to make a purchase, he or she can directly stamp the back of the membership card to express it.
How many denominations are left?"
"Brother Yang is still thoughtful."
Shopkeeper Zhou only has one thing to do now, and that is to resolutely implement Yang Xuan's decision. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with the decision he made.
Besides, Yang Xuan is the major shareholder, and he is only a minority shareholder.
Isn’t it good to make money while lying flat?
Next, on the sixth and seventh days, there was still an endless stream of people applying for membership cards.
After all, it’s free money. If I don’t give you a discount, don’t you still have to eat the noodles?
Later, more and more people filled up their bronze membership cards. Some people who could only afford to eat occasionally would also fill up their membership cards. These groups were more careful with their budgets and saved whatever they could.
It's not a bad idea to treat someone to a meal with fried noodles. This fried noodles has already become a popular trend in Yingtianfu.
But Yang Xuan and Shopkeeper Zhou's visit to the shop did not go well.
According to Yang Xuan's idea, he wants to open a shop in the east of the city, but most of the shops there are owned by the shop owners. Some shops even have no business at all and are not rented. These people in the east of the city all have status.
People with status are not short of money.
Even if you open any kind of shop, if you don't make money, you have to keep it going, because renting out the shop will lead to infamy.
Look, if someone’s shop is rented out, something must have happened to their family.
In short, these people are not pure businessmen. Although they also want to make money, they also want to save face. They all want to make money quietly, but on the face of face, they still treat money like dirt.
