Chapter 249 The wine merchant’s counterattack (please subscribe! 4000+)

Basel city.

The bright moonlight shines on the street, and the gradually approaching night casts the filth on the roadside into the shadows of the corners.

There is almost no light in the city of Basel at night. Except for the flickering candlelight in the brothels in the western part of Basel, laughter and howling can be heard from time to time. Only the mansions of the great nobles can hear the sound from time to time. A few rustling sounds.

For most common people in this era, when night falls, apart from rolling on their beds and falling asleep, they probably only engage in the tedious exercise of creating humans.

Because things like candles have always been expensive luxuries, they are definitely not something that ordinary small households can afford.

Most of the shops on Nerva Avenue have closed down one after another as the sun sets. Only the product display windows of Norman Family are brightly lit, and the glass-decorated exterior walls also reflect the light blue glow against the magic crystal. Light.

Under the cover of night, the luxurious decoration of the Norman family became more and more luxurious and attractive, attracting the attention of countless nobles.

This is the card!

In more than half a year, the Norman family has completely established a foothold in Basel City.

Under Bruno's remote control and Carlio's specific implementation, the Norman family established a very good brand reputation and left a very deep impression on the nobles of the entire Kingdom of Basel.

The supply of rose essential oil exceeds the demand, causing the nobles throughout Basel City to increase their quotations, but...

However, the Norman family still adheres to its original sales principles and pricing standards, and is not affected by the high profits offered by the outside world, which makes the nobles of the Kingdom of Basel full of praise.

It would be a fool not to make money, but the problem is... what the Idar people pursue is more lasting profits and reputation!

Of course, this does not prevent some "self-involved" salespeople from dressing up in disguise and carrying bottles of diluted rose essential oil to make high profits on the black market.

after all……

The rose essential oil sold on the black market in the Kingdom of Basel not only sells for a higher price, but also has less content and a lower concentration!

Therefore, without affecting the business reputation of the Norman Family, Carlio would set aside a small quota of rose essential oil every time, and occasionally let people wander around on the black market to obtain additional rose essential oil for the Norman Family. profit.

If rose essential oil makes the nobles jealous, then the low-alcohol wine produced by Moore Wine Company, which is consigned to the Norman Family, can be said to make the nobles of the entire Kingdom of Basel crazy!

In this era when entertainment and cultural activities are so scarce, nobles do not have many hobbies, so...as soon as the secret of the World of Warcraft wooden box was revealed, it set off a fashion trend in the city of Basel.

The collecting habit of the nobles brought excessive profits to the Norman family, and the crazy sales scene even shocked Kallio.

If Bruno hadn't had the foresight to prepare sufficient inventory in advance, Norman Family's low-alcohol wine might even have faced the risk of being out of stock...

The sales methods proposed by Bruno opened Kallio's eyes, as if his business experience for most of his life was reflected in Gouzi's body, and he couldn't help but be deeply impressed by the methods of Lord Bruno Stuart, Count of Idar.

Not only the two products of rose essential oil and low-alcohol wine, but also the gem-grade coral, high-alcohol spirits and other products sold by Norman Family have also been praised by the Basel nobles.

The excellent quality of the products is only one aspect. The luxurious and trendy decoration style of Norman Family and the well-trained sales skills and after-sales service of the sales staff also give the nobles who come to shop a feeling of spring breeze.

And this... is also unmatched by any other store!

It is precisely under the influence of these many aspects that the brand effect of the Norman Family has increased, so much so that the nobles of the Kingdom of Basel feel particularly grand as soon as they hear that this is a product of the Norman Family.

After closing, Norman Family did not stop operations. The staff responsible for managing the accounts and finances carefully counted the day's income, while the shopping guides began to review today's sales and Norman Family's current product inventory.

The salary of Norman Family sales staff is not constant. In addition to the most basic basic salary, the monthly commission can even reach more than five times the basic salary!

The employees on the ground floor were busy, but on the top floor of the Norman Family, Carlio, the president of the Idar Chamber of Commerce, was sitting at the table, carefully reading the book written by the Earl under the bright candlelight.

Not all texts can be called books, and those texts written by Bruno in his spare time have almost become the most respected works in Kallio's mind.

In his opinion, this is the code of wealth that can drive every businessman crazy!

A variety of imaginative sales techniques are dazzling, and Kallio's business awareness has been enhanced as never before.

Bruno not only mentioned many eye-catching and enlightening sales methods in this book, but also proposed many new terms, such as... economy.

This new term proposed by Bruno undoubtedly made Kallio feel bright. What is economy? What is business?

These are things that Kallio has never thought about before.

In his original understanding, the job of a businessman was nothing more than buying low and selling high, switching hands back and forth, and selling goods back and forth between different regions.

But……

Bruno gives these behaviors a clearer and brand-new explanation in the book, and invisibly praises and affirms the meaning and value of the businessman's existence, and elevates the businessman's status!

Economy is not only the general term for people's production, circulation, distribution, and consumption of all material and spiritual materials, but it is also Bruno's idea of ​​how to run a country and help the world!

The circulation of commodities, the distribution of wealth, the accumulation of capital...

These brand-new concepts opened a new door for Carlio, who has been in business for more than ten years, allowing him to realize for the first time the wealth and value he can create.

Master Bruno...

Looking at the words recorded in those books, Kallio couldn't help but feel a soreness on the tip of his nose.

This is a gift of reinvention to yourself!

Only by being loyal to the Idar Territory, running the Idar Chamber of Commerce prosperously, and giving Lord Bruno a perfect answer can I be able to live up to the Earl's kindness!

Of course Kallio should be shocked, because Bruno put a lot of effort into sorting out the contents recorded in those books.

With the current financial resources of the Idar Territory, Bruno could have lived a shameless aristocratic life for a long time, but... he did not do so.

The productivity of the Idar Territory has indeed gradually improved under Bruno's guidance, but the thoughts and ideas of the Idar Territory people still remain on the original basis.

It is obviously impossible to blindly wait for the people of Idar who have just started to learn spelling.

In order to quickly improve the abilities of Kallio, Shabi, Liszt, Mundell and many of the main officials in Idarland, and improve the depth and breadth of their thinking, Bruno personally wrote and organized a lot of notes, hoping to Let them adapt to the changes in the Idar Territory as soon as possible and follow their own footsteps more compactly.

As the president of the Idar Chamber of Commerce, Kallio has naturally become Bruno's key cultivation target.

so……

Bruno combines knowledge from Western economics, political economics, finance and other disciplines, discarding those theories and models that seem high-end and classy but are not in line with the reality of the world, and uses a more down-to-earth language. , a concise summary of knowledge about business, economics and sales.

And Kallio obviously lived up to his expectations. In addition to daily operations, he devoted almost all his time to books, gradually combining theory with practice, and observing the business and economy of the world...

…

The market in the Kingdom of Basel is vast, and the spending power of the nobles is jaw-dropping.

but……

No matter how vast the market is, there will always be scope, and no matter how high the consumption power is, there will always be limits.

The Norman family was like a dragon crossing the river. Without any warning, it plunged into the city of Basel, and relied on Queen Alanna as its backer to amass a fortune that amazed everyone in a very short period of time. .

In half a year, the Norman family established a firm foothold, built a reputation, and won admiration. While many nobles were full of praise, it also made some nobles gnash their teeth.

Rose essential oil will not have a direct impact on the original market, but the sales of low-alcohol wine have made many people jealous.

Because there is a limit to the consumption of wine, it is impossible for a nobleman to drink wine as water all day long, so...

When the sales of Norman Family's low-alcohol wine were booming, driven by the Warcraft wooden box, the sales of other wine shops were bleak, or even suffered serious losses.

Being able to operate a wine business in the capital of the Kingdom of Basel is mostly due to the support of a certain nobleman.

Therefore... the vendors who are responsible for running the shops all hate the Norman family, the dragon that crosses the river.

Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents. Behind the booming sales of the Norman family's low-alcohol wine, countless wine vendors encountered criticism and rebuke from the nobles behind them.

So, after such a long time, they finally couldn't sit still!

After all, the queen is not the king, and even if she is the king, there will be nobles who will take risks in the face of excessive profits and try to touch the tiger's beard.

Capitalists even dare to sell the ropes used to hang themselves. Although these merchants who rely on the nobles are not capitalists, they are also jealous of the high profits in the low-alcohol wine market.

You know, the low-alcohol wine sold by Norman Family is much more expensive than other wines!

In a tavern in the south of Basel, almost all the wine businessmen in the city gathered here, and the atmosphere seemed solemn.

"Everyone! The Norman Family is really bullying others! If this continues, the entire wine market in Basel City will be swallowed up by them!" Harley Santa Cruz started to say.

"That's right! This status quo must be changed!" Ernie Mfela agreed with a dark face.

Harley Santa Cruz and Ernie Mfela are the largest wine merchants in Basel, and they make a lot of profits for the southern aristocracy of Basel behind them every year.

Originally, they were each their own masters and had many conflicts, but this year...the arrival of the Norman family broke the previous situation, forcing the two former enemies to come together.

If they cannot overcome this difficulty as soon as possible, then the two of them will never have an easy life!

When the two largest wine merchants in Basel opened their mouths, the tone of this gathering was set.

That is to put aside the previous prejudices, jointly compete with the low-alcohol wine sold by the Norman family, and seize back the original market.

But... how easy is this?

"After all, the Norman family has a queen as its backer, and the nobles also like the rose essential oil sold by the Norman family..." A wine merchant said in a dilemma.

This does put many wine merchants in a dilemma.

On the one hand, the existence of the Norman family had a great impact on their original product sales, and sales revenue plummeted, causing the nobles behind them to become furious;

But on the other hand, the noble men behind them were full of praise for the products of the Norman Family, and even bought many products from the Norman Family.

This is somewhat embarrassing...

"Alanna Haring is, after all, the queen of the Kingdom of Basel and a member of the royal family. It is impossible to ignore the power behind us and provide support to the Haring family at all costs..."

"Besides... in fact, suppressing the low-alcohol wine sold by the Norman Family will not necessarily affect the Norman Family..."

Harley Santa Cruz suddenly said something that made people confused.

"What do you mean?" A businessman frowned, full of doubts.

“According to our investigations these days, the low-alcohol wine sold by Norman Saga is not actually its own product, but is sold as an agent for a vineyard named Moore Winery, and that Moore Winery... It is the property of a Norman Empire noble!"

"What?!"

The vendors present were shocked. UU reading www.uukanshu.net

"As a Basel native, how can we let the Norman nobles steal our gold coins so easily?" Harley Santa Cruz said in a deep voice.

"Have you already made any plans?" someone asked.

“The reason why the wines of Moore Winery are so popular in the Kingdom of Basel is just because of the so-called magic beast wooden boxes and other small tricks!

"In these days, I have made the workshop work day and night, and have also produced a batch of wine wooden boxes engraved with Basel-style patterns! This is our territory, so we may not be able to overpower them!"

Harley Santa Cruz said confidently.
