Spring and Autumn I Am King

Ji Qiao used to be the chief strategist of the lower palace. With his years of experience in managing Shangji and the city, he thought that if his competitors cut prices for a short period of time and the magnitude was not large, they might be able to follow suit. But if the other party has more goods to sell than their own, it is best to withdraw, otherwise it will collapse before him.

It is unwise to have one enemy and one minister!

But Zigong's words awakened the dreamer. Zhao Wuxi and Ji Qiao were both smart people.

Zigong explained his plan in detail. What he meant was that behind Zhao Wuxi, there was the lower palace! And Zhao's support! Why not use their power?

Zhao Wuxi couldn't help but sigh, this is the difference between first-class talents and second-class talents. Some of Zigong's abilities may not be outstanding now, but his vision and mind are much higher than Ji Qiao's. When Ji Qiao was still struggling with the snail horns under his feet, Zigong had already stood on a high place, overlooking the distance. A hundred miles away!

He said, "It's not too late, I'm going to the lower palace today. Zigong will go with me, and then I'll bring you to meet your father and ask him for orders!"

Zhao Wuxi laughed secretly in his heart. With Zhao Yang's character, if he goes against the Fan family, he will be happy to do it!

Zigong also smiled: "In the past two weeks, the craftsmen sent by the lower palace have learned the structure and manufacturing method of the stone mill, and now they have built several large mills in the lower palace, far better than the stone mill. Township. It’s just that a large number of mills have not been started yet. If the strong production of the following palaces enters the millet market, it is guaranteed that the merchants of the Fan family will lose their money this time!”

The shopping mall is like a battlefield, Zigong said here, his blood is already bursting.

His eyes turned to Ji Qiao: "Having said that, but after all, the boy has only one person's wisdom, I'm afraid I can't see it comprehensively, please also ask Mr. Ji to talk about any tricks?"

Zigong considered himself a junior in front of Jiqiao. Net so modestly called "boy".

Ji Qiao was just in time to answer, but Wu Xie interrupted them: "Wait, Mr. Ji's method. I have already guessed it, let's talk about it at the end. You two listen to me first."

Zhao Wuxie's idea is to keep the price of ordinary wheat flour down while continuing to let some goods go the boutique route.

"Zigong can bribe some people in the country and publicize in the market that the wheat flour in Chengxiang was specially bought by the chef of the Xiqi Palace. It has been supplied every day for more than a month, and even the king is full of praise after eating! Not only that. , Wei Shi, Zhao Shi and other officials also only eat Chengxiang wheat flour! This so-called widely advertised."

"According to Zigong, the Fan family probably only has hand-pushed mills now, and there is no better animal power mill, so the grains of wheat flour are larger. The scholars and officials are used to our fine flour, and I'm afraid they don't bother to change the taste. If the price is suddenly reduced, It makes people doubtful, but it will lose this batch of markets. We first occupy the market, and then we build a reputation and cultivate loyal customers. We will be able to remain invincible!”

In the face of price cuts by competitors, improve the quality of our own products and maintain high-end customers and existing market share. is also a way. It will take some time for Fan to advance from the hand-pushing mill to the animal-powered grinding mill. Their prices can continue to drop, but the quality cannot be improved! It will not be able to enter the upper market.

Zhao Wuxi said so many new terms in one breath, Zigong was a little dizzy, but he understood the meaning, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "It's widely advertised... I didn't expect a gentleman to have a businessman. Luckily, you are a gentleman. If you are also a merchant, how can Zigong get a foothold here? You can abandon the merchant and go back to Wei to grow crops!"

The three of them laughed in unison.

Zhao Wuxi's thoughts. Can be used as a supplement to Zigong's strategy, with this Shanggu. Take a look at Gu's strategy. Wu Xie has already won the victory in the face of Fan's family, so what does Ji Qiao think?

Ji Qiao sighed and said: "The future generations are terrible. With the gentleman and Zigong's pearls and jade in front, the old man's rubble can only be considered ugly. The old man's eyes are not on the millet market and wheat flour, so he actually has the heart to back down, and wants the gentleman to take the lead. Turn your energy to the newly made beautiful instruments recently."

If competitors permanently cut prices, they should consider abandoning some old products and introduce new ones. There is nothing wrong with the idea of ​​​​Jiqiao. But with Zhao Wuxi and Zhao Yang's character, it was impossible to accept Fan's aggressive and disgraced concessions.

In Wu Xie's opinion, the battle of the Six Ministers is not only a political, diplomatic and military battle, but also an economic battle! If you don't advance, you will retreat, how can you be afraid of it?

After Ji Qiao confided his thoughts, Zigong also became curious. He hadn't returned for a few days. What good things did Chengxiang make? The small town under the rule of this gentleman is really ingenious.

Zhao Wuxi smiled and nodded and said: "Yes, Lu Taoweng and others, the trial production was successful the day before yesterday."

He turned around and picked up two objects and showed them to Zigong.

"This is……"

Zigong saw that in Zhao Wuxi's left hand, there was a pot-shaped vessel. Its surface is smooth and neat, showing a bluish-yellow color, and its appearance is rounded, reflecting the light of metal, but not bronze.

And the utensil on Zhao Wuxi's right hand is even more beautiful, this is a small fish basket. Its surface is milky and light blue, similar to ice and jade, as bright as a mirror, but it is not jade.

Zigong was fascinated by their unique beauty. After a while, he asked hesitantly, "Is it pottery?"

Zhao Wuxi placed the pot and fish basket in his hands on the table, and tapped lightly with a chopstick.

"Ding……"

He closed his eyes and listened to the heavenly sound, as if he heard the wonderful sound of countless golden and copper coins falling to the ground. He smiled and said, "No, this is not Tao, their name should be called..."

"porcelain!"

...

After a while, Zigong stood in the Chengxiang government treasury, in the small cubicle dedicated to storing Zhao Wuxi's so-called "porcelain"~www.wuxiahere.com~ and felt that his eyes were a little overwhelmed.

The ground is covered with dry and soft straw, and dozens of porcelain utensils are placed on it. There are medium-sized utensils such as gui (), tripod, li, jar, chicken head pot, and three-legged stove. Thick.

The utensils are also filled with straw to prevent collision and fragmentation. The smooth surface reflects a luster similar to metal. At a glance, you can tell that both the shape and appearance are imitating bronze ritual utensils and food utensils.

On the other side, white porcelain with uniform color, like ice and jade, was made into decorative cong (g), jue, pendant, etc. There are even two cute white porcelain deer, one big and one small, and a white porcelain pillow. The smooth pillow surface makes Zigong want to lean on it and try it.

Zigong, such a shrewd and intelligent businessman, immediately saw through the deep meaning of Zhao Wuxi making these utensils.

He turned to Wu Xie and said, "Does the gentleman want to sell porcelain and enter the lacquer pottery market? Give Fan a blow?" (To be continued)
