Chapter 209: I Was Not Born From The Sky Lin Beifan, The Way Of Business Is Like A Long Night!
At this time, the major families gritted their teeth and lowered the price to 12 Wen.
In this way, sales finally surpassed Xia Zhi.
In the Great Xia Palace.
Yaoyao said excitedly: "Now, our summer paper has become popular all over the world! Because it is cheap and good, readers are keen to buy our paper, and we are making a lot of money!"
"However, the aristocratic families didn't just catch them. They resorted to many methods, but they were all repulsed by us! Now, they are selling at a reduced price, down to 12 cents a pack, making a profit at a loss! Haha..."
Lin Beifan gave a thumbs up: "Great! The paper they sell now is made by the old papermaking method, and the cost is about 20 Wen! Now the price is 12 Wen, which means that every stack of paper he sells , I will lose 8 coins, it’s a loss!"
Yaoyao nodded again and again: "That's right, that's it, the more they sell, the more they will lose! Do you think we should chase after the victory and lower the price to stop them? Even if we lower the price to 12 cents , can still make money, but they can't, haha!"
Lin Beifan waved his hand: "It's better not!"
"Why?" Yaoyao was puzzled: "Didn't you say that you want to run them out of the market? Now is a good time to fight a price war. If you don't take advantage of the victory and pursue it, when will you wait?
Lin Beifan smiled and said: "Those aristocratic families are not so easy to defeat! Their background is too deep, and it will be no problem to persist for several years! Therefore, this is a protracted war, and there is no need to fight for losses!"
"If we sell at a lower price, even if he loses a lot, we will earn less. There is no need! And to be honest, those scholars have probably already spent all their money on paper.
You can’t sell much even if you lower the price!”
Yaoyao nodded again and again, and humbly asked for advice: "What you said makes sense, so what should we do?"
Lin Beifan said: "The best way now is to take the opportunity to buy their paper!"
Yaoyao was stunned: "Isn't that giving them money?"
Lin Beifan said angrily: "You are stupid! This is not a gift, this is a purchase. Paper with such a low price is not often available. We should take the opportunity to buy a large amount and stock up!
"Anyway, these papers won't go bad if they are stored for decades, and the price can't be so low forever. When the price rises, won't we make another profit by slowly shipping them?"
Yaoyao looks at Lin Beifan differently again!
Look, this is the layout!
She is still planning the gains and losses in front of her, and the other party has seen it decades later!
"You're right, let's do 560 like this!" Yaoyao made a decision.
Lin Beifan warned: "You must buy it secretly, buy it without anyone noticing it, and don't let them find out!"
"Understood, I understand this!" Yaoyao chuckled, like a little fox trying to get his way.
"We'll raise the price of summer paper after we stock up enough!"
"Why?" Yaoyao was dumbfounded again.
Lin Beifan explained: "Of course it is for the convenience of shipment! Think about it, the price of paper is so low, the family will not be able to last long! When we raise the price of summer paper, they will definitely take the opportunity to increase the price and reduce the price of paper. loss!"
"For example, if we raise it to 30 coins, they will definitely raise it to 20 coins! At this moment, we sell the 18 coins we bought from them, wouldn't we make money?"
Yaoyao took a deep breath!
Looking at Lin Beifan's gaze is different again!
Stand tall!
Amazing!
I thought he was on the first floor, but unexpectedly he was in the atmosphere!
Yaoyao shook her head and sighed: "You are too good at doing business! If you don't do business, it will be a loss to your business!"
"Of course!" Lin Beifan said triumphantly: "I was not born Lin Beifan, the way of business is like a long night!"
After receiving Lin Beifan's instruction, Yaoyao immediately went back to operate excitedly!
Let the people of their own magic sect pretend to be scholars to go to the shop of the aristocratic family to buy paper, and buy in batches.
As a result, the major aristocratic families were surprised to find that their paper sales were particularly good.
It is often sold out as soon as it is put on the shelves.
In contrast, the shops of Momen have become much deserted.
Dade Dynasty, Lin Mansion.
The butler ran back excitedly: "Master, good news, great news! Our paper sales are booming, and they are sold out as soon as they are put on the shelves. It has completely overwhelmed the shops opposite!"
Lin Yuandong's face darkened, and he cursed: "What a fart! We are selling at a loss, the more we sell, the more we lose!"
"Yes yes yes... the master is right, but this servant knows he is wrong!" the butler apologized in a low voice.
"Is there any reaction from the shop opposite?" Lin Yuandong shook his sleeves and asked majestically.
"Master, there is no response from the other side, and the price is still 20 Wen!"
"It seems that they are quite calm and difficult to deal with!" Lin Yuandong said calmly: "Well, after you go back, let the people below supply a limited supply, or sell it with some other calligraphy treasures!"
"My lord, do you want to
"Of course it is to reduce losses!" Lin Yuandong said in pain: "The faster this is sold, the faster we will lose money, and the more we will lose! We must stretch the front line to drag them down!"
"My lord, I know what to do!"
After the housekeeper went back, he immediately formulated a strategy, and each person could only buy two packs.
If you also buy other things, give some discounts depending on the situation, buy half and get some paper for half.
However, this is still not a problem for Yaoyao and the others.
There are plenty of people in the Demon Sect, and there are even more people who can pretend.
So, they continued to "purchase" and bought everything clean every time.
In this way, half a month has passed.
Dade Dynasty, Lin Mansion.
Lin Yuandong asked: "How is the situation? Can the shop on the opposite side survive?"
"My lord, there is still no movement in the shop opposite, there is still a stack of 20 cents, but the shop is empty, basically no one goes to buy paper from them!"
Lin Yuandong frowned, the effect was not ideal.
In his imagination, the other party should be unable to hold on, and then sell it at a lower price.
No matter how much the drop is, as long as it drops a penny, it means that their strategy is effective and they have gained an advantage.
But now, still indifferent.
"The Demon Sect is really difficult to deal with!" Lin Yuandong waved his hand: "Continue to operate like this, and we must be the ones who win in the end!"
"But my lord, we can't hold it any longer!"
"Nonsense! We have enough funds, how can we not support it?"
"My lord, there is money, but the goods are running out!"
The housekeeper said with a bitter face: "Our paper is sold out as soon as it hits the shelves every time. The supply exceeds the demand, so the stock is almost gone! If you want to continue selling paper [I'm afraid it will take two months["]
Lin Yuandong's expression also became bitter.
It takes time to produce paper, generally takes 100 days, more than three months.
Their production and stocking are carried out according to the usual sales volume.
Since the sales volume is very stable, only two months of goods are available at most.
But I didn't expect it to be so popular during this period [so the stock car was sold out!
Then continue to sell white paper, but it will have to wait until two months later!
"Master, do you want to suspend..."
"It can't be stopped!" Lin Yuandong said decisively: "If the supply is cut off, the previous efforts will be in vain, so we must hold on! Limited again, and strive to last for two months!"
"Yes, sir!"
As a result, the shops of the aristocratic family are limited again, and each person is required to only buy one incense.
How much can there be in a stack?
But 20 pieces of paper, but 12 coins.
Therefore, the scholars who came here to buy paper were dissatisfied.
"A person can only buy one stack, so little? Do you think I can't afford it?"
"Can you sell more, 20 sheets of paper will be used up in a few days!"
"Don't be so stingy, can you, who do you look down on? We are scholars, not beggars!"
No matter what the scholars say, the aristocratic family shop just doesn't let go.
"Let's go, let's go to the opposite side to buy!"
"Although it is a bit more expensive (aidj), but there is no limit, you can buy whatever you want!
"What I'm saying is, go to the opposite side to buy, and don't get caught up in this bird-like attitude!"
Momen's business has actually gotten better.
At this moment, Momen's goods were almost sold out in China. Under Yaoyao's instruction, Xia Zhi's price soared to 40 Wen.
This caused great dissatisfaction among readers.
"What are you doing, the price has suddenly increased to 40 Wen!"
"The price has risen as soon as the market is opened, your food looks too ugly!"
"Be careful I won't buy your paper in the future!"
But no matter how scholars complain, Momen still does its own thing, whether you like it or not.
Dade Dynasty, Lin Mansion.
"Happy event! Great happy event!" The butler ran back excitedly.
Lin Yuandong asked: "What happy event?"
The butler said loudly: "Master, the shop opposite finally couldn't hold on anymore, and raised the price of paper, and the price of paper was raised to 20 Wen, doubled!"
Lin Yuandong frowned: "There is no price reduction, but a price increase, something strange!"
He thought about it seriously, but he couldn't think of a reason for a while.
"Master, the prices of their shops have all increased, do you think we also..."
Lin Yuandong nodded: "Okay, since the other party has raised the price, let's raise the price too!"
12 cents a stack of paper, they really can't stand it!
Will die!
"Master, how much will it go up?"
"Let's go up to... 25 Wen, at least you can earn 5 Wen!"
"Yes, sir!"
As a result, the price of the family also rose accordingly.
Although the original price will not rise, it is much better than now and can make some money.
As a result, there was another scolding.
At this time, a scholar walked out of the family shop cursing.
"There is a price increase over there, and there is also a price increase here. They are all businessmen with dark faces and black hearts. They only know how to make money!"
A thieves saw it, leaned over, and whispered: "Master, do you want to buy paper?"
"Of course I thought about it! But I was one step late, and the prices on both sides have increased. If I had known earlier, I would have bought more!" said the scholar regretfully.
The thieves continued to whisper: "I have paper here, and I can sell it to you cheaply!"
The scholar's heart moved, and he asked in a low voice: "How much do you have, and how cheap can it be?"
"Paper, I have a lot! As for the price..." The other party compared two fingers: "A stack of 20 Wen!"
The scholar was a little moved: "Let me see it first!"
"You come with me!"
After a while, they walked into a secret courtyard.
The eye-catching person opened a room and said, "Look, here is my paper, how much do you want?"
The scholar looked at the paper piled up in the room, and his heart was pounding: "Can it be cheaper, I buy more?"
"If you buy more than 10 stacks, you can get a 10% discount, which means 18 Wen per stack! This is rare
Opportunity, after this village, there will be no such shop!"
The scholar gritted his teeth: "I want 100 stacks!"
In this way, the magic door has begun to secretly ship.
The cost price is 12 Wen, the selling price ranges from 20 to 18 Wen, and the profit is more than 50%.
Many scholars are afraid of missing a good opportunity again, so they often sell generously, buying dozens or even hundreds of stacks each time, and the money is recovered quickly.
On the other side, the aristocratic family became puzzled.
The price of their paper is already very cheap, at least cheaper than that of the magic gate, but they still can't sell it.
They waited and waited, and finally gradually realized that something was wrong.
After some investigation, the truth was finally found out.
It turned out that someone was secretly selling paper at a cheaper price than them.
After careful investigation, it was found that the paper they sold belonged to their family.
Lin Yuandong was furious: "It's clear that people are hoarding odds and ends! Damn it, someone dares to take advantage of our family! Send someone to copy them right away!"
"Yes, sir!" The butler immediately led a group of minions over.
But not long after, some of them came back in disgrace, some with missing arms and legs, lying on the ground and howling.
The housekeeper covered his bruised and swollen face, and said, "Master, you can't copy it, they are from the Demon Sect!"
Lin Yuandong: "Damn!"
At this moment, he finally figured out the whole story.
It turned out that the hoarders were from the Demon Sect.
They buy goods silently in the dark, and when they have enough goods, they deliberately raise prices.
As a result, their aristocratic family also raised prices accordingly.
In this way, they can take the opportunity to ship.
This is a ring!
From the beginning to the end, it was their aristocratic family who suffered losses, and the Demon Sect made a lot of money!
Maybe, they are being ridiculed by the Demon Gate!
Lin Yuandong was trembling with anger!
This loss is really big!
The housekeeper also wanted to understand the whole story, and said with a crying face: "Master, what should we do now, should we lower the price?"
"No need, even if we lower the price, but the quantity is limited, we can't compete with them! So, remember this for now, and report later!" Lin Yuandong said angrily
"Yes, sir!"
And this situation is happening in every country.
The demons bought the family's paper at a low price, and then secretly shipped it when the family's stock was insufficient, and made a lot of money by going back and forth.
Even if the aristocratic family knew about it, they had no choice but to pinch their noses and admit it.
At this moment, Lin Beifan's tragic story-telling novels "The Butterfly Lovers" and "The White-haired Girl" were finally released. .
