I opened a mall in ancient times

This person is not very old, he is the youngest among so many bosses, he looks to be in his early twenties, looks pretty, and feels a little weak.

This person is the owner of Ziyunxuan Buzhuang: Qin Shuyun.

He had just taken over Ziyunxuan from his father not long ago. He thought that it would continue to develop step by step.

As a result, Luo Chao appeared.

Originally, Luo Chao Chao didn't care, after all, people can drive whatever they want, as long as they don't disturb themselves, it's fine.

But therein lies the problem.

Luo Chaochao, who mainly deals in cosmetics and luxury goods, has now started to deal in fabrics!

Isn't that a threat to your own interests?

But Qin Shuyun didn't think it was a bad thing.

He naturally discovered the role of Zhou Jiedushi in it, and he also noticed the recent changes in Kangzhou City, and it was not that he didn't think about fighting Luo Chaoxi, but soon, he calmed down.

There is no food for impulsiveness, and it is easy to stumble, so it is completely unnecessary to fight for a moment.

Qin Shuyun quickly reacted, and found the direction the government wanted from the changes in Kangzhou City during this period.

This is a policy change, and it cannot be changed by a few businessmen alone.

If it was just a simple businessman engaging in monopoly, they would have no problem finding trouble with Luo Chaochao, but now the country is behind the city's policy reforms...

Against the system of the entire country?

He is not a fool, why did he seek his own death.

Since the other bosses felt that they were going to fight against Luo Chaochao, he took advantage of this time to build a good relationship with Luo Chaochao.

Only by seizing the opportunity can you get rich. It is better to take advantage of the east wind and sail the boat with your own hard work. This will not only save effort, but also get benefits.

Why do you insist on fighting against Luo Chao Chao?

Isn't it good to make money following Luo Chao Chao?

Qin Shuyun faintly felt that Ziyunxuan's breakthrough should be here, as long as he could seize the opportunity.

Ziyunxuan is not a big cloth shop, there are two in Kangzhou City, and there are also branches in the county below, and there are only a dozen or so in total.He felt that these high-end fabrics were not very competitive, so after he took office, he placed the main market in the subordinate counties below, mainly doing business for ordinary people.

And if I guessed correctly, Luo Chaochao should have a lot of cheap fabrics in his hands, and Luo Chaochao alone may not be able to eat them all. If I can seize this market in advance...

"Boss, we're here." The coachman stopped in front of Jiushui's door, the coachman parked the carriage, and then Qin Shuyun came to the door with the gifts he had bought in advance and put in the car.

Qin Shuyun has always wondered why Luo Chaochao didn't buy a separate yard to live in, but insisted on soaking in the store every day, so that it would be really inconvenient for others to find him.

Qin Shuyun slandered a few words, but still informed the front desk of her intention to come, and was led to the rest area for a short rest, and even ate some snacks from Luo Chaochao shop.

While eating, he lamented that Luo Chaochao's store is indeed a luxury business, that is, the water and snacks for customers are good things they have never eaten before, plus the decoration and layout of Jiushui Cloth , once again lamented Luo Chao Chao's arrogance.

It is worthy that these rich people come to buy things in Luo Chaoxi's store, even he feels that the things bought in Luo Chaoxi's store are better than those sold outside, and he can show off when he takes them out.

"Looking for me? It's much slower than I thought."

Luo Chaochao had expected that there would be a fabric merchant coming to him, but he didn't expect it to come so slowly. He had been waiting for several days before the first person came.

And only one came.

Forget it, at least I came to eat cake in advance.

"Young master, please go over here." When Qin Shuyun was still looking at the clothes in the store, a clerk came over and called him. Qin Shuyun quickly stood up to thank him, and followed the clerk up another aisle.

The structure of this building is very strange.

Qin Shuyun thought about Luo Chaochao silently, and felt that Luo Chaochao was really an amazing person.

It seems that he is only interested in opening a shop, and not interested in buying other houses at all, and he himself is obviously an ordinary orphan, but everything he can do is beyond the reach of others.

He was able to build a business empire in a very short period of time that no one else could look up to, and even allowed those in power to pave the way for him, and now others are begging to cooperate with him.

Even though he looks immature now, the future is limitless.

It's really annoying to compare people to people, but sometimes it's really hard to say.

Qin Shuyun followed the staff to the third floor, and stopped in front of a wooden door. It was not the double door that everyone is used to, but a single door. It looked very thick and soundproof. The two of them stood at the door and could not hear the sound inside. what sound.

knock knock --

There was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

"Please." The clerk pushed open the door, and then made way, "My boss is already waiting for you inside."

"It's troublesome."

After thanking Qin Shuyun, he opened the door and entered.

The room doesn’t look big, but it’s very bright. There’s a long desk in the back, and there’s a lot of things on it. There’s a big bookshelf and a display cabinet behind it. There are green plants in the corner, and they’re a little fluffy. On the right side of the door is a group of soft-looking chairs and a small tea table, and on the other side there is a round cloth that looks soft and does not know what it is for. bag.

What attracted Qin Shuyun the most was Luo Chaoxi, who was sitting behind the desk and seemed to be copying a copybook with a pen.

Qin Shuyun has heard the name of Luo Chaochao more than once. In the eyes of colleagues, Luo Chaochao is an out-and-out evil spirit. According to the family members, Luo Chaochao is a gentle and considerate gentleman. In the eyes of ordinary people, Luo Chaochao There are more images.

But after seeing Luo Chaoxi with his own eyes, Qin Shuyun felt that it was better to know a person personally.

"Boss Qin?" Luo Chaoxi put down the pen in his hand and put away the copybooks on the table, "I don't know what you want from me?"

"I asked Boss Luo to forgive me for visiting rashly today." Qin Shuyun hurriedly returned the gift, "Actually, I came here this time to ask for something."

"Boss Qin, but it's okay to say."

Qin Shuyun looked at Luo Chaochao, who was several years younger than him, and then remembered his reason for coming, and sighed, "Actually, this time, I came here for your fabric business."

That's right.

Luo Chaochao nodded, "You mean..."

"It's like this. Although our Ziyunxuan is not so famous in Kangzhou City, there are eight branches in the county below. We mainly deal with ordinary people and poor people. I think if we can cooperate with you , if we sell them together, it should be a win-win situation, and Boss Luo doesn’t need to re-purchase shops in the county below to promote them.”

Luo Chaochao was originally waiting for this, and now Qin Shuyun came to him and said that it was expected. He sat opposite Luo Chaochao, and seemed to unconsciously push his sleeves, "If this is the case... I may not be able to make the decision, you I also know that the leader after I was dismissed is someone else."

Qin Shuyun naturally understood.

Behind them are the high officials of Kangzhou City. Who doesn't know, but he can understand that even if Luo Chaochao is in charge now, everyone still subconsciously thinks that the officials are in charge.

"In that case, then..."

When Qin Shuyun was about to say something, someone knocked on the door again, and Qin Shuyun clearly heard the clerk outside saying: "Master, the owner of Qinghui Pavilion is here."

Qinghui Pavilion?

Qin Shuyun's expression immediately became subtle.Isn't that the name of another cloth shop in Kangzhou City?

If he remembered correctly, the boss of Qinghui Pavilion was the one who scolded Luo Chaoxi the most at that time.

Why did you come to find Luo Chao Chao now?

In fact, Qin Shuyun can also understand, but he knows how hard this person scolded Luo Chaoxi before. If he came alone, there might not be any problems. Anyway, no one knows that he has scolded him, but the problem now is... it's here.

Needless to say how embarrassing the scene will be then.

But now it is impossible for Qin Shuyun to stand up and leave immediately, so he can only pretend to know nothing and get up: "Boss Luo, since you still have something to do, I will avoid it for now."

"No, you all came here to talk about one thing." Luo Chaoxi shook his head, "It just so happens that they are here, so you can discuss what to do."

This is embarrassing.

Qin Shuyun felt that he had thorns on his buttocks, and couldn't sit still at all. He couldn't help becoming nervous when he thought of the embarrassing scene for a while. After a few minutes, the clerk brought people to the door. When Luo Chaoxi said, please come in, When Qin Shuyun and the boss of Qinghui Pavilion met their gazes, both of them couldn't help showing awkward yet polite smiles.

"Boss Qin is here."

"Boss Chen is here too."

The two greeted each other with decent smiles on their faces, and scolded each other bloody in their hearts.

One scolded Qin Shuyun for not leaving quickly when he knew he was coming, and the other scolded the other party in his heart for not coming over and bumping into him later. Now that both sides are so embarrassed, and they are all together, doesn't it mean that they are asking for Yu Luo Chao Chao?

In this way, Luo Chao Chao would be able to demand them with a handle.

"Boss Chen and Boss Qin have a good relationship." Luo Chaoxi was still adding fuel to the flames.

"Everyone is in the same industry, and the relationship is okay."

"Hahahaha, that's really good, and we will become good friends in the future."

Qin Shuyun and Boss Chen smiled stiffly, how could they not tell that Luo Chaochao was teasing them, and rolled their eyes in their hearts

This is talking about their plastic brotherhood.

Luo Chaoxi just teased a few words like this, and continued to talk about the cooperation with the two. Now that he was talking about business, Luo Chaochao stopped beating around the bush and brought up the cooperation again.

The routes of Qinghui Pavilion and Ziyunxuan are completely different, one is to take the cheap route, and the other is to take the high-end route.

Qinghui Pavilion, which originally took the high-end route, should not be affected by Luo Chaochao, but Luo Chaohao has a lot of resources in his hands, who wouldn't be greedy?Then he turned the corner and came to look for Luo Chaochao.

It's just that they didn't expect Ziyunxuan, Qin Shuyun, the new shopkeeper who came up not long ago, to come here earlier than him.

It must have been planned to come over to find someone during the meeting and discussion.

Both of them knew that there must be more than the two of them coming, they just didn't expect to meet each other. They both thought that they were the first one to come, but when they bumped into each other, it couldn't be said that who came earlier.

From the time point of view, Ziyunxuan came early, but the two of them haven't had time to talk about it, so the two of them are now on the same starting line, and now it's time to see who can come up with a bargaining chip that makes Luo Chaoxi more excited.

The reason why the auction can be auctioned is that, in addition to its own value, there is also the thrill of adrenaline soaring when everyone gathers together.

Everyone is rational behind closed doors, and wants to buy something they like when they see it, but if the value exceeds the bottom line of psychology, they will control their desires and choose to let go.

But the auction is different. All the people participating in the auction are clearly bidding, and the auctioneer is very good at provoking emotions, so people can't help but compete with others.

It is best to have peer competition, so that it is the most fragrant to grab.

After all, the most delicious things are those that others rob, even if you have to pay extra money to satisfy emotional value.

Originally, when Qin Shuyun came to Luo Chaochao alone, he could rationally analyze the pros and cons of cooperation with Luo Chaochao, and think about whether to cooperate. Now, after Boss Chen came, the two of them unconsciously formed a competitive relationship.

Both of them want to get benefits from Luo Chao Chao.

It turned out to be a two-way choice, but now it is about to grab it.

For example, Lingxiqing and Yu Wei had the same reasoning before. Originally, Lingxiqing was able to think carefully when she was alone, and even wanted to lower the price from Luo Chaoxi. I don't want to admit defeat, I want to snatch the cooperation from Yu Wei.

Boss Chen and Qin Shuyun are doing the same now.

Luo Chaoxi was still thinking about something to stir up their emotions, when he heard someone knocking on the door again.

"Boss, Boss Yan from Ruxi Pavilion is here."

The two bosses inside the door froze.

Good guy, this is another owner of a cloth shop, and he has come over at this time.

Luo Chaoxi raised his eyebrows, feeling a little interesting.

Is it a coincidence that these cloth shop owners came to the door together today, or did they make an appointment in advance?

Looking at the unbelievable reactions of the two people seeing each other, Luo Chaochao felt that they made an appointment in advance to discuss how to deal with him, and then they broke up and then secretly separated.

The other party thought that the other party was planning to go back home, but they all wanted to sneak away and cooperate with themselves behind their backs.

It's just that I didn't expect that there are too many people with this idea, and the time is about the same, so they come across one after another.

No wonder they all came together.

"Then the two of us..." Farewell——

This scene was so embarrassing, Boss Chen and Qin Shuyun felt like they were going to collapse sitting here, if they met Boss Yan again, how could they be so embarrassing if they looked down and didn't see them in the future. ,

"Everyone is talking about one thing. Talking alone is a waste of time. Why don't you get together and discuss it."

In the eyes of the two of them, Luo Chaochao who said such words was a living Yama!

How did he say such words without changing his face?

It's so scary!

Luo Chaochao was still worrying about how to stir up emotions just now, but he didn't expect that Boss Yan came just right, three people can stir up better than two people, how could Luo Chaochao let people go?

There is no such a good opportunity after letting people go!

Luo Chaochao hurriedly asked people to come in.

"After all, it's about business. It's better not to get together. After all, it's all confidential." Boss Chen said tactfully.

Luo Chaoxi smiled, "You two also know that I'm busy with four shops now, and I finally found time to discuss with you. If I miss it today, I may not be able to see you later."

That makes sense, but...

Without giving them a chance to hesitate, Boss Yan knocked on the door at this time, Luo Chaoxi responded quickly, and the other party pushed the door in, preventing the two people who were about to leave first.

Luo Chao Chao showed an unfathomable smile.

The four people inside and outside the door looked at each other, only the smile on Luo Chaoxi's face was sincere, Boss Qin, Boss Chen, and Boss Yan who had just opened the door all had awkward yet polite smiles on their faces.

"This...Boss Luo, Boss Qin...Boss Chen..." Boss Yan greeted each other awkwardly, standing at the door for a while, either entering or leaving.

How could he not understand? !

I thought I came early, but in fact I didn't come early. Two people from Ziyunxuan and Qinghui Pavilion have already arrived!

He was just the third child, and seeing that the two of them seemed to want to leave, he immediately understood.

broken!

Be fooled by Luo Chaochao!

But all three are here.

"Come in, Boss Yan." Luo Chaoxi stood up and welcomed the person in, "We just said that there are fewer people and some things are hard to say."

Is it hard to say? !Isn't this a good time to rob?

Qin Shuyun and Boss Chen were heartbroken, but they were really embarrassed to say anything here, the three of them could only sit in a row, and the clerk brought new snacks and tea before leaving.

"Is Boss Yan also here for the cooperation with Buzhuang?" Luo Chaochao asked him.

Boss Yan nodded heavily.

"That being the case, let's—"

"Boss, there are three bosses outside who want to see you."

For some reason, Qin Shuyun suddenly calmed down when he heard someone coming outside again. He picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

I don't feel embarrassed, just sit here and wait for those duplicity bosses to come and chat together.

He looked away.

These bosses say one thing and do another, saying that everyone is doing well together, but in fact, that's all. They had fun scolding just now, and now they still have to come over to find Luo Chaochao?

It's all fake.

Qin Shuyun, who was already immune to embarrassment, didn't feel embarrassed, and even wanted to push her.

Since I can't eat the first bite of meat, then others will eat it first. If you have the ability, let's all work together to see who is ashamed!

Thus, three newcomers ushered in this small office.

"Three bosses, sit down, there are so many seats." Boss Qin greeted the three people standing at the door, "Boss Luo's tea and snacks are delicious."

Boss Yan and Boss Chen looked at Boss Qin with 'you've fallen' eyes, and Boss Qin took another sip of tea in the presence of God.

Anyway, as long as I am not embarrassed, you are the one who is embarrassed.

Luo Chaochao also said: "Come on, sit down, I'll let you drink the new milk tea from the shop, it's delicious."

Now there are only seven people in the room, and the sofa can't be opened, so Luo Chaoxi moved to the beanbag sofa on one side, and moved the original single seat to Qin Shuyun.

He could tell that Qin Shuyun had passed the embarrassment period, he had already understood that as long as I am not embarrassed, embarrassment is the true meaning of others, and he even wanted to help Luo Chaoxi embarrass others.

There were only eleven bosses in the meeting in the past, and now there are six in Luo Chaochao. Although it is not clear whether the remaining five will come, half of them have already achieved Luo Chaochao's initial goal.

Luo Chaochao is still happy.

This shows that Kangzhou City and half of the counties and cities below can become Luo Chaochao's sales channels.

There is a way to sell expensive things. After all, there are only a few people who can afford expensive things. If you sell such cheap things, you will make small profits but sell them quickly. As long as there are enough people buying them, you may not be able to earn less than these expensive things. You don't need to have some poor sense of ritual.

For example, gifts for ordinary people can be packed in a bag. Gifts for rich people not only need to be exquisitely packaged, but also go through a very noble process to give these people enough face. Sometimes the gifts are packaged more than the regular price. The product is even thicker.

Luo Chaochao and the others chatted and bragged for a few more minutes, making sure that no other bosses came over, and then they got down to business.

"Everyone knows their respective goals, and I don't have to go around in circles with everyone. Everyone should know about the textile factory that we cooperate with Jiushui this time, right?"

"Actually, we also want to ask, some of the employees you recruited don't know how to weave. Wouldn't it be too expensive to teach them from scratch?"

"That's our advantage."

Luo Chaochao is not afraid that they will know, or that as soon as the textile factory opens, everyone will know about the pedal spinning wheel and how efficient it is.It doesn't matter if you tell them in advance, even if they know, there is no way to replicate Luo Chaochao's success without the core technology, even if they forcefully lower the price by squeezing other textile workers, they will bottom out and rebound.

For example, those in Youzhou City.

Luo Chaochao has successively brought in many embroiderers and textile workers with excellent craftsmanship from Youzhou City, as well as many craftsmen who do other things. Luo Chaochao even searched for many carpenters and blacksmiths. Now It's all in the factory.

They didn't move much, and the officials of Youzhou City didn't seem to have reacted yet. Anyway, Luo Chaochao came back a lot from Youzhou City first.

Green bamboo contributed a lot to it.

But the main reason is deterrence.

Let them know that there will be no good results in robbing them, it is better to surrender as soon as possible!

"Just now that everyone is here, I'll take the bosses to see our looms."

It appears to be a loom improvement.

Several people thought.

But what kind of loom can make Luo Chaochao so confident?

The yard where the embroiderers and temporarily recruited weavers are familiar with the looms is not far from here, and it only takes less than 15 minutes for a few of them to walk, but they are in a hurry now, so they go there in a carriage.

It is certainly impossible for Luo Chaoxi to pay for the training of employees alone. The officials allocated a few empty yards nearby and temporarily used them as training locations. After the textile factory is officially put into use, it will be moved there as a whole. The vacated yard will be recycled in due course.

But now those large foot-operated looms made by carpenters are neatly placed in the yard. They are as tall as a person, and the volume is even larger, with a length and width of seven feet, which is much larger than the weaving machines that everyone uses now. The cloth machine is much more complex and huge, with dense warp and weft threads and powerful components that they can't understand, they are running regularly and efficiently, and the woven cloth is slowly spit out in the sound of clicking.

These bosses are all in the fabric business, and they also have their own textile teams under their hands. Some of them also have the most advanced foot-operated looms from the south, but the looms they bought from the south are not as good as these Huge monster, just like a newborn baby, its speed and efficiency are simply incomparable

These women sitting in front of the looms are wearing neat uniforms with narrow sleeves, which is convenient for work. There is only one person in front of such a big loom, and she looks very thin sitting in the middle, but such a thin girl can be alone Humans operate such a large machine.

There is no one chatting while working, just the regular brushing sound, and the rattling sound of wood hitting when the machine is running.

And at the end of this loom that they have never seen before, a small piece of fabric is continuously spewing out. This speed is much faster than that of the looms they use in the south. A stick of incense can weave a knuckle-long knuckle. cloth.

It doesn't look like much, but the width of the woven cloth is six feet!

This speed is at least ten times faster than the loom they bought from the south.

The most important thing is that such a large loom can weave fabrics with a width of nearly seven feet, and everyone knows that the wider the fabric, the more valuable it is.

"We have at least [-] machines like this," Luo Chaochao said, "Hundreds of employees work in three shifts."

This productivity...

It is conceivable that several bosses were shocked when they saw this scene.

If it was said that they came to Luo Chaoxi just for expediency, they felt that they didn't fight with them because the government was suppressing them.

But look now...

For Luo Chaochao to give them a chance to get a share of the pie is already a bodhisattva descending to earth.

What if they wanted to fight?

Can't beat it at all.

Even if they use the most skilled weavers to weave day and night, they can't beat Luo Chaochao's factory.

Those of them who took the initiative to find someone to cooperate with were forward-looking and seized the opportunity. Those who did not come to cooperate with Luo Chaochao can only wish them good luck.

I hope they can react as soon as possible and seize the time to cooperate with Luo Chaochao, otherwise they really can't do business in Kangzhou City.

Seeing this scene, Qin Shuyun couldn't help sighing.

"Boss Luo always surprises us."

"There is no way, the times are advancing, and technology must also advance." Luo Chaochao said, "If you don't move forward, you will be left behind."

"You are right, but are these the latest looms from the South?"

"That's not true, it was improved by many people." Luo Chaoxi said, "Okay, let's talk about other cooperation matters by the way, and the time is almost up."

Now, the few people no longer have a reason to reject Luo Chao Chao, and they have no choice.

Rejection means that you will not be able to survive in the future, it means that you will go bankrupt in the future, and it is estimated that it will still be annexed in the end.

Moreover, the quality of the cloth produced by this factory is not bad at all, the price is cheap, and the quantity is large. General shops are completely unable to compete. Since they cannot compete, they can only cooperate.

Say it's cooperation...

But they are not given a choice at all.

Among the eleven cloth merchants in Kangzhou City, seven came to find Luo Chaochao in the end, and the remaining four never came to him, so Luo Chaochao didn't wait.

Some of these cloth merchants only do business in Kangzhou City, but some do business in other cities.

Some people want to sell the low-priced cloth here in Luochao to other cities to make more money, and Luo Chaochao has no objection, anyway, the cheap cloth will always be rolled over, so let them be happy for a while.

Finally, the construction of the textile factory was completed, all the people were recruited, and they could start working at any time.

Six hundred weavers alone were recruited, as well as thread spinners, embroiderers, not counting other miscellaneous workers, as well as cooks and workers who moved goods. There are more than 1000 people, and the scale of the factory directly transformed on Zhuangzi is not small. Except that there is no five or six meter high wall, the level of strictness is comparable to that of a prison.

However, fences and guards were installed outside the factory because of the flammable properties of the cloth, and regular patrols were made every once in a while to prevent people from coming over to make trouble.

If this is set on fire, none of the things in the factory will be left, and at that time, they will not be able to cry.

Luo Chaoxi tidied it up from head to toe in order to change into new concubine-colored clothes which was rare today.

There was a notice for the opening day, and there was also the opening ceremony. Those who came to cut the ribbon were Zhou Jiedu and several senior officials from the city, as well as employees from the factory. Many people also came to watch the excitement. Stand in line at the post and wait for the leader to come over and start speaking.

These employees are also wearing uniforms, the men wear gray blue, and the women wear camel color. They are all dirt-resistant and beautiful colors. The employees who have new clothes are all beaming and smiling. The wages he gets every day are full of hope for the future.

Although everyone doesn't like the leader's speech, but at this time and place, the leader's speech really has a miraculous effect.

"Thank you for participating in the opening ceremony of our Kangzhou Textile Factory, and thank you all the leaders for coming to participate. Now we invite the Jiedu Envoy of our Kangzhou City to give a speech on the establishment of the Kangzhou Textile Factory!"

Luo Chaochao, acting as the temporary host, stood on a temporary high platform and shouted with a simple loudspeaker.

He had never seen this before, but it really gave face to the leaders who came to participate.

Envoy Zhou Jiedu had also been instructed by Luo Chaochao before, and actually prepared a speech, probably because it was the first time he did this, and Jiedu Envoy Zhou prepared a [-]-word speech very eloquently.

In addition to Jiedushi, several other officials in charge of business came to chat with everyone, which gave Luo Chaochao enough face, and made these people who came to the opening ceremony understand how much the boss behind this textile factory is. hard.

These people had never been exposed to speeches from leaders before, and now the leaders of the city cheered them on later, and the employees in the factory straightened their chests with excitement, feeling that their future was bright and bright.

Not to mention food and clothing, we can live a better life in the future!

Luo Chaochao secretly yawned aside.

Could he not know how boring the leader's speech is?But special treatment in special times, anyway, it's just this one time, and there will be no chance in the future.

However, Luo Chaochao didn't know that he, the devil, had finally opened the devil's door where the leaders love to give speeches.
