He understood the words franchise fee, management fee, and material fee, but when they were put together, he didn't quite understand.
"Brother Lu, you open a noodle shop. With our authorization, you can use the Weijixian Noodle Shop brand name. Then we will train your staff, provide you with a business plan, and provide you with the secret sauce."
Yang Xuan took another sip of tea and continued: "Authorize Brother Lu to use the Weiji Xian Noodle Shop. We will charge a franchise fee. This is only charged once. Then we will train the staff and provide a business plan. We will charge a management fee for this. From now on, we will charge a franchise fee."
Brother Lu collects it from the turnover, and we also provide the secret sauce. This secret sauce is the material, and the material fee is how much you charge based on what you use."
His Royal Highness Prince Chun nodded while listening, and finally clapped his hands and said, "If this happens, wouldn't I become a hands-off shopkeeper?"
"That's what it means." Yang Xuan admired on the surface, but what he was thinking in his heart was, what kind of hands-off shopkeeper, this is basically you working for me, and you have to pay.
I have to say that the person who invented this franchise thing is really a genius. He tricked people into selling them, and others still counted the money for you.
Of course, there are still merits to joining the franchise. After all, as long as Yang Xuan is not evil-minded, franchisees can still make a lot of money.
Originally, Yang Xuan's idea was that after he filled up Yingtian Mansion, one store would be enough for other prefectures, and all the others would join. After all, in this era, many places are controlled by aristocratic families, not to mention he is a businessman.
Even for imperial power, in some places it may not be possible to have the words of the local wealthy family to make it effective.
Let’s not talk about whether a dragon crossing a river can defeat a local snake. In business, why bother to fight? Isn’t it better for everyone to make money together?
The more people rowing the boat, the more stable the boat will be. Yang Xuan only needs to steer the boat well.
After discussing for a while, His Royal Highness Prince Chun decided to open a branch in the northwest area of Yingtian Mansion. He had a shop there and was managed by the palace's housekeeper. The business had always been tepid.
In fact, if it were to be converted into a noodle shop, even if the fees charged by Yang Xuan were taken into account, even if the business was good, His Highness Prince Chun would not look down upon that little money.
But what he is interested in is Yang Xuan. Although he has not achieved the goal of becoming a partner this time, as long as he starts to cooperate, there will always be opportunities in the future.
After making an appointment to discuss the details tomorrow, His Highness Prince Chun went back satisfied.
This matter was not discussed with Shopkeeper Zhou and others, but they had to be informed afterwards, so the three of them held a meeting.
After briefly explaining the matter, Yang Xuan expressed his suspicion that Lu Fengxian directed and acted on his own. Unexpectedly, Guan Yunrong also felt this way. Only shopkeeper Zhou was really frightened at the time and did not go anywhere else at all.
think.
The main problem with this matter is that the excuse used by the Inspector of Police to find trouble is a bit unreasonable. The second thing that makes them suspicious is that His Highness Prince Chun came out at the right time, which makes people have to be suspicious.
After analysis, Yang Xuan felt that Lu Fengxian was not malicious, but just wanted to play a trick of saving people from danger.
In response, Yang Xuan sighed and said: "It seems he is still after my money."
Guan Yunrong, who was next to her, burst out laughing: "If this Lu Fengxian really comes from a noble family, he really looks down on your money."
"Oh, Miss Guan, you are looking down on me." Yang Xuan said angrily: "Although I don't have much money now, I have investment value. From another perspective, this Lu Fengxian still has a very good investment vision.
.”
Guan Yunrong smiled and said: "If you say so, then he is the one who wants you."
"Pfft...I don't have that hobby."
During the chat, the three shareholders unanimously approved the franchise method proposed by Yang Xuan and agreed on the price and other details.
Early the next morning, before His Royal Highness Prince Chun came, the eldest brother Yang Xiao came.
The documents have been handed over to Yang Xiao, and he will be able to perform his duties under Capt. Li in the next two days.
But what surprised Yang Xuan was that the eldest brother came alone.
Yang Xuan asked in surprise: "Where are sister-in-law and Xuanxuan?"
Yang Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "I can't even get in through their door."
"What do you mean? Didn't you tell them that eldest brother was transferred to the city?"
"As I said, because of this, your sister-in-law said you don't want her to come back without fifty taels of silver."
"Didn't she say five taels of silver before?"
"Hey..." Yang Xiao sighed and said, "Her brother wanted to marry the daughter of Butcher Zhang's family, but Butcher Zhang said he wanted a gift of five taels of silver, but their family couldn't afford it. Your sister-in-law asked me for it, but I couldn't
No."
"Yesterday, when I went to pick her up, her father and brother blocked the door and refused to let her in. They said I had beaten her. If I hadn't learned martial arts for several years, they might have taken action."
"Later I heard that I had been transferred to the city, and I would take my wife and I to enjoy the blessings in the city. Then she said that she would have to give her fifty taels of silver before she could leave with me."
Yang Xiao's face was full of helplessness, like a loser who was looked down upon by his wife and ridiculed by his father-in-law.
Yang Xuan couldn't help but feel sorry for his eldest brother. After all, during the period after time travel, his eldest brother treated him very well.
"Brother, I have two plans now. One is fifty taels and I will help you pay it. Brother, I am not short of this little money. You can take over your sister-in-law and children and reunite the family."
Hearing Yang Xuan's statement, the eldest brother frowned.
"Another way is that you just work as an errand in the city and live in the city. Brother, I will pay for you to marry a concubine, and then find an opportunity to take Xuanxuan over. As for the sister-in-law, whether it is peace or harmony, you
Make your own decision.”
When Yang Xiao heard about taking a concubine, his eyes brightened, but he still shook his head: "Let's talk about this later."
Yang Xuan really felt a little sad for his elder brother. A young man in his early twenties was forced by life to be like this.
As the saying goes, to marry a virtuous woman, is this sister-in-law really a prosperous version of the devil who supports her younger brother?
He made up his mind that he must help his eldest brother escape from this sea of suffering. Although his eldest brother couldn't make up his mind yet, as a brother, he had to help him make this decision.
He didn't believe it. If he really married his eldest brother a beautiful concubine and stuffed her into his bed, would he be able to bear it?
"giegiegie..."
Looking at his eldest brother's retreating figure, Yang Xuan smiled proudly.
"Shopkeeper Yang, why are you so happy?"
"Ahem, cough, cough." Yang Xuan turned around and saw that Lu Feng had arrived first. He quickly raised his hand and said, "Brother Lu is here. I am waiting for Brother Lu here."
His Royal Highness Prince Chun did not come alone, but also brought with him a person who looked like a master.
