Chapter 49 Tang Shaozheng's Ambition
The middle-aged wealthy businessman's name is Tang Shaozheng, a native of Tiandu. He was born in a family and was a branch of the other party, so he went to do business in ancient times.
To be honest, the carriage is not very good. It is a two-wheeled carriage that is still bumpy. Fortunately, the official road is quite flat, which is much better than sitting on the horse.
There were female relatives in the car, and they should be Tang Shaozheng's daughter. They had never gotten off the car, and Wang Shouyi didn't know what she looked like. Listening to talking to Mrs. Zhao, he should be in his prime.
"Shopkeeper Tang, what kind of business is he doing..." Wang Shouyi asked Tang Shaozheng.
As the saying goes, when you see people, when you see ghosts, you will naturally tell things that merchants care about.
"Young Master, the old man can't talk about making a living. He was born in the family. He didn't have to be as good as a martial arts, but he did a job following a car." Tang Shaozheng called himself the old man, and it was right.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, you can be called an old man after you are fifty.
"Then the shopkeeper Tang is extraordinary and has a good fortune. He praised a lot of wealth in his work as a car. I guess he has his own business skills." Although Wang Shouyi looked down on two-wheeled carriages, the people of Dazhou who could own carriages were considered a wealthy family.
This is equivalent to a modern person with a car.
"Haha... The young master is too rewarded. After hearing what the young master said, he knows the business of business." When Tang Shaozheng heard Wang Shouyi's praise, he was praised by a young man with peerless martial arts. He couldn't help but feel happy, laughed happily, and stroked the goatee with pride.
"To be honest, I always think about this business. The things in the capital are all good things. I spent some money, bought a carriage by myself, followed the escort agency, and did some reselling and buying things, so I saved some wealth. Before I retired, Yi Yangtian was only thinking about buying land outside the capital to build a house and live a stable life."
Tang Shaozheng was also straightforward when he spoke, and even said that he had accumulated some wealth and was not afraid of the bad intentions in life in front of him.
When Wang Shouyi heard this, he laughed but said nothing, but he believed that Tang Shaozheng was too smart and trusted himself and others.
When I first met, I believed in people. This was not the behavior of merchants, and it was impossible to make such mistakes.
Wang Shouyi guessed that Mr. Tang was a person who knew etiquette and was grateful, and had experienced many things. He understood the worldly style and had confidence in himself, so he dared to speak so bluntly.
The more you become a worldly world, the more Wang Shouyi can experience the coldness and warmth of the world. This skill seems to be restrained, but the marks on the skill are like humans and begin to have personality.
"This big deal in the capital was long been snatched by royal relatives and nobles and aristocratic families. Naturally, it cannot be done and it is not profitable. I can't get any fur, medicinal materials, antiques and paintings. I can't get any money; gold, silver, jewelry, grain, wine, salt and iron are also less money, and the loss on the road is not enough to make money. As for me, I like to visit all over the place, found some ways, met some people, started doing business without foundation, and started buying and custom-made things on behalf of others. For example, the young master of the Zhang family learned martial arts and wanted to order a sword with his own name from Liu Tieji, the capital city. Li
The playboys wanted to please the girl, wanted to buy rouge from Shixiang Pavilion, or the old lady of the Qian family was greedy for the secrets of Baoshen Building. After a long time, she also made some reputation. As many people placed orders at home, the money came, and the price was higher than that of the big merchants sometimes, and it was quite profitable. After a while, over 20 years, the old man also gained some reputation and earned some pension money. If I hadn't been old, I would have wanted to continue. In the past two years, my son took over my work and continued to make money."
Mr. Tang talked endlessly as soon as he opened the box.
"When it comes to my son, I am really smart. I opened a grocery store in Pingyang City, sold everything, and I have a long life... I work harder and harder to let the grocery store continue to run this official road, one by one. At that time, my side branch could also become a direct descendant."
...
"Old Tang's grocery store is probably a department store. This idea is good, but it is difficult to grow bigger. It really makes people discover your son's golden idea. The big businessman follows the example. The price is lower than yours, and he may not be able to make it." Wang Shouyi reminded him, changing the title from shopkeeper Tang to Old Tang.
Young Master Tang was a personal talent, and immediately felt the title of the prince in front of him. He also thought about the meaning of Wang Shouyi's words and understood the truth.
"I don't know what kind of opinions the prince has." Seeing that Wang Shouyi had above his business vision, Tang Shao became interested in asking for advice.
"The starting point of the grocery store is to make custom products and purchase on behalf of others. The price difference is high, so it is profitable. If Mr. Tang thinks, one city and one store will not make profits from a single item, but should be small profits and quick turnover."
"For example, you can sell your ironware from Liu Tieji, your food and dried pastries from Baoshenlou, your wine from Cheng's family, your fine noodles from Wang's family, white rice, your rouge powder from the Yang's family, your fabrics from the Zhang's family, and your equipment from the Zhang's department store, and the selling price should be lower than the market price. If you collect goods from Baijia, you will be selling at a low price. I am afraid that the people of the whole city will go to your grocery store. Even if you make less money and sell more, you will naturally make a lot of money. This is a small profit but quick turnover. Moreover, there is not much profit to make, so you are not afraid of anyone watching it."
Wang Shouyi tried to use the most popular words to explain the department store and supermarket framework of Dazhou.
"This, this... the cost is too high. If you want to collect goods from hundreds of families, you have to wholesale and customize them in large quantities. And if you sell so many goods, this store is big, and you are afraid that it will cost more than the largest Baibao Building in Beijing. The money and people are all astronomical. One city and one store, and the old man doesn't know how much it will cost."
After Wang Shouyi said this, Tang Shaozheng was shocked when he calculated it in his heart.
"Haha... If there are one city in Dazhou, there will be no less than tens of thousands of stores. If a store buys land and builds a house, it will be as few as a few thousand yuan per store, and at most tens of millions of stores. On average, it is about tens of thousands of stores per store. If there are hundreds of thousands of stores in Dazhou, the number of stores can be at least more than 20,000 yuan, and the cost will be more than 20,000 yuan." Wang Shouyi didn't mind exaggerating it a little more, and gave Tang Shaozheng a concept of how much it would cost.
"Twenty million coins, that's 200 billion coins, but a real copper mountain." Tang Shaozheng was stunned by Wang Shouyi's words. After calculating, sweat fell on his head.
"This...this...this...the young master is joking. That's a real bronze mountain!"
Wang Shouyi calculated that there were about 100 million tons of copper coins, which was indeed a real copper mountain.
"Haha...Does Mr. Tang still want to do this business?"
"I won't do it anymore, I won't do it anymore... Even the royal family won't do it." Tang Shaozheng quickly shook his hand and shook his head.
...
The carriage continues to move forward...
Tang Shaozheng came over again: "Mr. Wang, I thought about it and could still do it. I will first open the capital and the county towns of Youzhou, Shengzhou and Yunzhou. One continent will open four first. As for this, we don't pay for it. We can give it to a counter and let them sell it themselves. We can just collect some rent. In this way, won't it cost much?"
Wang Shouyi was surprised. This young man from Tang was not a time travel. He also thought of this method and wanted to see it and do it.
Wang Shouyi couldn't help but look at Tang Shaozheng seriously and for a long time: "Old Tang, he is really the talent of a general in the shopping mall."
"You really want to do it..."
Wang Shouyi asked.
"Um……"
"I won't raise you today."
"I have a son, and now my body can move."
Wang Shouyi nodded, thinking about something...
"There is Yangliu Town ahead. After the arrangement is made, we will have a closer chat with Mr. Tang."
