I want to be a giant of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 5 Profitable
The layout of the Laofengxiang gold and silver shop is simply leading the contemporary gold and silver shop.

The first floor is divided into two areas. One area is the sales hall, which is about 60 square meters (it is easy to imagine, so we don’t need a foot); the other area is the window for gold recycling and foreign exchange exchange, which is about 10 square meters.

Six female shop assistants were in charge of the hall. Anyway, the quantity of gold and silver jewelry had been memorized, and the price was also fixed, so Wu Guangyao didn't need to keep an eye on it.

Wu Guangyao is mainly in charge of gold recycling and foreign exchange exchange. This window is the most important part of the whole Laofengxiang.

Because the number of businessmen from mainland China to Hong Kong Island began to increase, these people have a lot of gold in their hands, and they need to exchange it for Hong Kong dollars after they come to Hong Kong, so the business of recycling gold is very busy.

Only when the gold is collected, the quality is accurate and the price given is appropriate, can the cost of the entire gold and silver shop be controlled, so that there will be sufficient profits.

The so-called gold: At this time, everyone wants to buy gold to preserve value, and the market is basically based on gold.

However, the composition of these golds is mostly uneven, but generally all gold is engraved on the gold, but in fact it is only [-]% to [-]%, or even as low as [-]% to [-]%.

Therefore, any gold and silver shop needs a real gold watcher, so as to avoid a lot of losses!
When these gold bars and gold utensils were sold to Lao Fengxiang Gold and Silver Shop, Wu Guangyao could not escape Wu Guangyao's discernment in terms of fineness and composition.

Wu Guangyao judged the fineness of gold by separating gold and stones, and then discerned the details.

Wu Guangyao is very gifted in distinguishing the composition of gold, as long as he rubs lightly on the gold-splitting stone, he can know the composition of this piece of gold by its color.

Then the market is settled, the bid is fair, and the transaction is straightforward.

In gold trading and delivery, you can choose high-quality gold, so you can make huge profits.

Of course, Wu Guangyao still brought two masters, yes, he brought the master Wang Jin.

The two old masters were still a little bit dissatisfied at first, thinking that you are a brat, yet you dare to call yourself an expert.

Wu Guangyao directly started to let them see what is accurate, so that the two masters were willing to bow down.

According to Wu Guangyao's vision, he would pass it on to the two without reservation, and he would be able to get away in a few months.

After all, this is just a small part of my Hong Kong Island plan, and it's just my starting business.

Of course, in the future, Lao Fengxiang Gold and Silver Shop will definitely be stronger than Chow Tai Fook in the original world!

The gold department and casting department on the second floor are basically dominated by Wu Guangyao, with other masters as assistants.

As the saying goes, it is not empty words to steal gold by hunting gold and stealing silver by hunting silver.

Generally, master goldsmiths will secretly add silver to the gold, and then steal the gold sand by themselves.

If things go on like this, the company not only lost money, but also left hidden dangers because of the quality.

For this reason, although Wu Guangyao also found three masters, not only did Fang Geer stay on the second floor as an apprentice, but Wu Guangyao would basically participate in it.

With your sharp eyes, you can tell at a glance whether you have cheated or not!

The three masters not only had to receive Wu Guangyao's new skills training, but also Wu Guangyao's brainwashing professional ethics training.

Wu Guangyao also specially launched the year-end bonus system. The salaries of gold-making and gold-casting masters are the same as those outside, but you have a year-end bonus, which needs to be paid during the Chinese New Year. This is like a sharp sword hanging over these people's heads.

If theft is discovered, then your year-end bonus will be cancelled, which is two or three months' salary, not necessarily less than what you stole.

Moreover, the boss is an expert at first glance, so he is easy to be discovered, coupled with the brainwashing training company management system.

Therefore, after two or three months, Wu Guangyao will also get away from the metallurgical department and casting department on the second floor, forming a virtuous cycle restricted by the company's system.

As for the third floor is the treasury and Brother Fang's bedroom, Wu Guangyao can rest assured only if he is with him.

After so many countermeasures, Lao Fengxiang will not succeed.

When Wu Guangyao came to Hong Kong Island, he basically had gold and silver and a small amount of British pounds and Hong Kong dollars exchanged in Shanghai.

These values, based on the prices he inquired at various shops three days before coming to Hong Kong, Wu Guangyao estimated that he was worth 2.2 Hong Kong dollars when he came to Hong Kong Island.

Subsequent expenses were mainly hotel expenses and meals at the Peninsula Hotel, but because Wu Guangyao started placing orders at various gold and silver shops on the third day for foreign exchange transactions, he also earned back these expenses, and even had a surplus.

So 2.2 Hong Kong dollars is equivalent to investing in Laofengxiang Gold and Silver Store, and the rent and decoration cost more than 1000 Hong Kong dollars.
The entire Laofengxiang is almost 2 Hong Kong dollars worth of gold and silver jewelry.

During the three days of the trial operation, more than half of the gold and silver jewelry costing 2 Hong Kong dollars were sold. Wu Guangyao calculated that he made a profit of about 1200 Hong Kong dollars.

The profit of 1200 Hong Kong dollars in three days, plus the profit of 300 from Wu Guangyao's gold collection and foreign exchange trading, preliminarily estimated that he earned 1500 Hong Kong dollars in these three days.

Success is in sight, come on!Wu Guangyao secretly encouraged himself.

The three consecutive days of hunger marketing made Lao Fengxiang completely famous, and some colleagues in Wenxian East Street got together to discuss countermeasures.

In a tea room, Boss Wang from Yongli said angrily: "The stinky boy from there knows to play tricks as soon as he comes. He doesn't pay attention to everyone, and he doesn't even say hello to everyone."

Boss Han of Huili said: "Isn't he the guy who often places orders at our gold and silver shop? That guy is really not simple. He has never lost money in foreign exchange trading. His brain is better than an abacus."

Boss Zhang of Xiangxin Gold Shop said: "His purity is four nines, which is a fatal trick for us! Is he not afraid of losing money like this? And their hall layout and the quality of the store staff are simply very high! If things go on like this , this kid is going to ride on our heads!"

Boss Wang said: "Should I find some punks to warn me?"

Boss Han said: "I advise you not to think about it. I saw with my own eyes that the boy had a good conversation with the foreign officials, using a foreign language. Also, if you trouble others, others can trouble your store."

Boss Wang said angrily: "Then what do you think we should do? Let this kid step on our heads and climb up, I'm not reconciled anyway!"

The boss saw that everyone didn't think of any good solution at all, and he didn't want to waste time here anymore.

Besides, we usually don't have a good relationship. If it wasn't for Lao Fengxiang's incident, it would be almost the same if we met our enemies.

"There's so much business, that kid only grabs a few. Let me tell you, now that a war broke out in the mainland, many businessmen have come to Hong Kong Island to seek refuge, and the gold and silver they sell is increasing day by day. The business is endless. You can discuss it, I have to Go to the store and look!"

After the boss finished speaking, he turned and left, and several other bosses also stood up and left.

Looking at the few bosses who have left, and then looking at the remaining four or five bosses, Boss Wang from Yongli said fiercely: "If you don't agree, you will be defeated sooner or later!"

Boss Han said: "That's not necessarily the case. Now is the time when business is good and everyone can make money, so I don't have the heart to recruit a newcomer. I think it's better to forget it!"

Boss Wang said angrily: "That's it! What else can I do? I didn't expect that kid to speak foreign languages. Maybe there are people from the foreign firm behind him!"

Although Lao Fengxiang's business was booming, he didn't grab much business after sharing it, so he didn't drive everyone to a dead end.

It can even be said that Lao Fengxiang's business is not the best when it comes to collecting gold.

After all, Lao Fengxiang's reputation has not yet been fully established, and many gold divers have fixed gold and silver shops to deal with.

This gathering against Wu Guangyao just fell apart because of the discord among the people.

In fact, Wu Guangyao had already made up his mind about these things. Wu Guangyao had his own preparations for land fees or crowding out by his peers!

I took the money to clear the way and met Superintendent Richard and some policemen in Central.

Anyway, I would rather give my money to the white than to the black.

Besides, in this era without the ICAC, the police are black and white.

On the day of the opening, Richard was very face-saving and came to the tailoring in a hurry, so that these people did not dare to act rashly.

Of course, Wu Guangyao can't grab a few businesses because each of them does their own business. After all, his ability is limited now.
