The opening of Liuli Convenience Store is a new thing for the people of Zhanjiang Prefecture.
The shiny golden signboard and the snow-white ground make most people stunned.
The 20% off discount for the first three days of opening also attracted a large number of customers.
Due to the large number of projects operated, many merchants are naturally affected. After all, the cake is so big.
This Yuezhou native has the habit of having morning tea. At this time, many shopkeepers from street shops have gathered in the teahouse.
In the past, these shopkeepers would sit in separate places, with a pot of tea and two cages of snacks, called a cup and two pieces. It was called tea, but it was actually a place for business exchanges.
Usually they communicate across tables, but today these shopkeepers gathered together at a big table.
"Shopkeeper Chen, how's the business going these two days?"
Shopkeeper Chen said in a muffled voice: "You will know if I have time to sit here and drink tea with you."
"As I said, your shopkeeper Chen's family has a great business, and you can sit here and drink tea whether you have business or not."
"Nothing compares to you, Shopkeeper Li. You hang out here every day. I don't know how much money you make."
"you……"
"Okay, okay, two shopkeepers, please listen to what I have to say. Why are we, the Chen, Li, Lin, and Huang families gathered here today?"
One of the old men came out and interrupted the dispute between the two: "Since ancient times, each of the thirty-six industries has its own rules, but since the opening of the Liuli convenience store, our business has been greatly affected. According to the
If this continues, it won't be long before we have no choice but to close down."
"That's right, that Liuli convenience store is so unruly. It actually sells everything in the store and the prices are so cheap. How can we live like this?"
"Shopkeeper Lin, do you have any ideas?"
The old man pursed his lips and said, "I don't have any ideas. If I had any ideas, I wouldn't be sitting here."
The rest of the people nodded silently. The four shopkeepers, Chen, Li, Lin, and Huang, were among the top big players on the streets of Zhanjiang Prefecture. The four of them accounted for 80% of the shops on the street, and their businesses involved almost all aspects of business.
.
But since the opening of Liuli Convenience Store, they have lost business. If there is a way, these daily competitors will not meet up for morning tea together.
Shopkeeper Huang said: "I have been to the Liuli convenience store. Not only does his store have a full range of varieties, but the prices are cheap. The most important thing is that their waiters treat customers very politely, unlike the waiters in my store.
, all of them are indifferent to the guests."
"Yes, yes, I went to see it too. There are glazed glass everywhere in their shop and white jade bricks on the floor. It looks magnificent at first glance. Our shop is really incomparable."
"You two will only make others' ambitions destroy your own prestige."
"What we are saying is true. It's not like you haven't seen it. Among our shops, who can be as good as theirs?"
Shopkeeper Lin waved his hands to interrupt the arguing: "It's a fact that they are better than us. We just need to come up with a countermeasure now, otherwise our family will be finished sooner or later."
Everyone fell silent immediately.
It's easy to say, with the glazed signboard, glazed decoration, and white jade-like floor, who can afford the money?
Even if you grit your teeth and decorate it like that, the cost will be included in the cost, but their prices are even cheaper than your own.
If the price is also reduced, how many years and months will it take to recover the capital?
Several shopkeepers hesitated to speak several times, unable to think of any good countermeasures.
At this moment, a young man in his twenties slowly walked into the teahouse with a double step.
"Shopkeeper Chen, Shopkeeper Li, Shopkeeper Lin, and Shopkeeper Huang are all here."
The visitor bowed his hands to several shopkeepers and said hello one by one.
But they don't know each other.
"Who are you?"
"It's really rude to come here without permission. Let me introduce myself. My surname is Yang and my given name is Xin. I am the shopkeeper of Liuli Convenience Store."
When the four shopkeepers heard this, they all frowned, "We are here to discuss how to deal with you, and you even came to our door."
"Shopkeeper Yang, I have admired you for a long time."
Shopkeeper Lin, a mature man, first returned the favor with his hands raised: "May I ask what you have learned from Shopkeeper Yang here?"
"I don't dare to teach you anything. It's just that we all do business on this street. Naturally, Yang wants to come to meet the seniors and visit the dock."
Shopkeeper Chen immediately snorted: "Worrying to the dock? You are going to rob us all of our business. I think you are here to see us laugh."
"You guys have wrongly blamed me." Seeing that they had no intention of giving up their position, Yang Xuan directly motioned to Zhang Junbao to move a chair over.
After Shi Shiran sat down, Yang Xuan said: "When it comes to business, only those who can do it should do it. How many shopkeepers can reach this point in Zhanjiang Mansion, don't they understand this principle?"
Several shopkeepers were about to get angry immediately, but they were stopped by Shopkeeper Lin: "Shopkeeper Yang, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly, there is no need to be so weird here."
Yang Xuan chuckled and said, "I'm here to discuss a deal with you."
"Talk about business?"
"Exactly."
Yang Xuan took the tea handed over by Zhang Junbao, took a sip and said, "Everyone, shopkeepers, what do you think of my Liuli convenience store?"
Shopkeeper Lin spoke up again to prevent the three shopkeepers from getting angry: "Although Shopkeeper Yang is young, he is very proficient in doing business. I admire him."
"Thank you very much, Shopkeeper Lin." Yang Xuan cupped his hands and said, "I'm talking about the shopkeepers' opinions on this store, not me."
The four shopkeepers looked solemn at this moment. After looking at each other for a few times, it was Shopkeeper Lin who still spoke.
“Shopkeeper Yang’s store has luxurious decoration, low prices and excellent service. We can’t be proud of it.”
"Thank you for the compliment from Shopkeeper Lin." Yang Xuan said, "Would you be interested if all the shopkeepers could open an identical Liuli convenience store?"
When these words were spoken, the four shopkeepers were immediately shocked and confused.
"Let's open a store like this?"
"Exactly." Yang Xuan took out four franchise contracts that had been prepared long ago and handed them over: "These are the terms of cooperation. You may wish to take a look."
The four of them doubtfully picked up the franchise contract, flipped through it, and communicated. Yang Xuan ignored them and sat at the table next to him. He ordered snacks from Zhang Junbao and the other two, and ate while waiting.
The four shopkeepers read the contract and began to discuss it quietly.
"This thing looks okay."
"If it's really like what's said here, even the decoration and distribution are the same, it seems pretty good."
"The franchise fee is only three thousand taels of silver. Think about it, the colored glaze and white jade bricks in the store alone are probably more than this price."
"That's right, that's right. If we open a shop like this by ourselves, I'm afraid we won't be able to open it at all without eighteen thousand taels of silver."
"According to what it says, it's like a hands-off shopkeeper. We don't have to do anything, and we don't have to take care of anything. As long as we pay three thousand taels of silver and add a shop, we can make money. Even if the business fails, the shop will still be ours.
My own."
"But if the conditions are so good, can this guy be a liar?"
As soon as this idea came out, everyone immediately became vigilant, and their eyes turned to look at Yang Xuan with a look of scrutiny.
