Chapter 106 Starry Sky Grocery Store

"Who do you want to cooperate with?" Aning asked.

Qian Yuan said: "In addition to Zhao's Chamber of Commerce, there should be many small businesses in Qingqiu Mansion, right?"

"Yes, I have."

"Are these small businesses doing well?"

"Of course it's not good. With a giant like the Zhao's Chamber of Commerce, the profitable businesses and shops in good locations are all taken over by the Zhao's Chamber of Commerce, and the rest can only drink some leftover soup." I understand the market quite well.

It seems that there is really a lot of homework to do.

Qian Yuan smiled and said: "Just find these small merchants to cooperate and buy them all. In this way, their stores, channels, craftsmen, workshops, etc. will all be included in the name of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce. Integrate these resources together , can it greatly shorten the incubation period of new products and expand production capacity at the same time?"

Merger has always been the only way to expand rapidly.

Aning frowned, "Your Highness, the locations of these small businesses are not good. They don't make money in the first place. If they buy them, won't they become a burden? How can they still make money? Besides, we don't have money to begin with. How can we buy these?" Shop?" If Qianyuan hadn't created a miracle, Aning would have doubted whether His Highness was crazy.

Qianyuan said: "Have you read the book "Supermarket Operation and Management" I gave you?"

"See." Aning nodded.

"Any ideas?"

Aning scratched his head, his brows were sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, and he forgot to answer for a moment.

Qian Yuan was not in a hurry, so he just waited.

After about a quarter of an hour, Aning raised his head again, his eyes burning, "Your Highness, do you mean to integrate these small shops into a supermarket, and use the agglomeration effect of the supermarket to turn a bad location into a good one?"

"clever!"

Qianyuan was very pleased.

Mature business models know how to take advantage of crowd gathering effect to turn waste into treasure.

For home building materials business, there is a building materials city and a building materials street; for catering, there is a food city and food street; and then there is the comprehensive shopping mall, which integrates shopping, catering, leisure and entertainment.

Supermarkets are one of the earliest business models to take advantage of the agglomeration effect.

By bringing together a variety of products and integrating resources, the supermarket itself becomes an attraction and a consumer trend, attracting a large number of customers and thereby increasing the sales of all products.

Needless to say, this is a genius idea.

If you think about it carefully, you will find that the Star Chamber of Commerce has a unique advantage in opening a supermarket.

First, the Star Chamber of Commerce itself focuses on daily chemical products.

There are unique commodities such as spirits, soap, perfume, and glass to support the scene. After merging other small shops, it can fill daily necessities such as daily necessities such as rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea.

The two complement each other perfectly and no one can compete.

Moreover, the supermarket is just a sales terminal. After merging small shops, those raw material procurement channels and workshops do not need to be moved, and they can continue to provide blood transfusions to the supermarket to revitalize it perfectly.

Second, there is the endorsement of the vassal prince's mansion.

From the day it was established, the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce has been branded as the feudal prince's mansion. It has a strong reputation and a solid background. It naturally has an advantage in Qingqiu mansion, and it is easy to gain the trust of customers.

Coupled with the new model of supermarket, as long as it works well, it will definitely become an instant success.

The two of them made such a combination, the more they thought about it, the more reliable it became. If it is really going to be done, it will turn waste into treasure, turn decay into magic, and boost the rapid development of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce.

Aning was immersed in this excitement for a while, and finally thought, "Your Highness, this is a good idea, but we have no money, how can we buy those small shops?"

It's frustrating to think about it.

Qianyuan smiled and said: "I don't have any money to borrow. Using other people's money to make money is really awesome. Just relying on your own little savings will make the day lily cold."

On earth, which enterprise does not take out loans?
There are quite a few banks in Qingqiu Mansion, some of them are run by local families, for example, there is a bank under the name of the Zhao family, and some are branches of big imperial banks in Qingqiu Mansion.

If the feudal prince's palace comes forward to guarantee it, the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce can still borrow money.

Aning was finally persuaded, and gritted his teeth: "Then borrow it." Essentially, Aning has a lot of risk-taking genes in his bones, otherwise, the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce would not develop so fast.

"Let's go do it!" Qian Yuan kept encouraging Aning, "Oh, by the way, I think the supermarket doesn't sound good, so let's call it the Xingkong Grocery Store."

"Well, I also think the grocery store is better." Aning agreed.

Next, the two got together again, discussed some details, and thought through the whole plan before Ah Ning left satisfied.

Qian Yuan was a little worried.

After a lot of work, the development of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce is on the horizon, but the problem of lack of money has not been resolved.

Do you want to borrow it too?
But the government office had just borrowed a large sum for disaster relief, and borrowing again was a bit unreasonable.

"talk later!"

Qian Yuan could only take one step at a time.

…………

July [-]th, Zhao Mansion.

Zhao Wanming has been very depressed recently, and his hair has turned gray.

Reluctantly donating 10 taels of silver, in exchange for only three words "I know", Zhao Wanming wanted to die, but he didn't dare to get angry, and even had to think of a way, how to continue to please the feudal prince's mansion.

Then it came out that the rival Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce had accumulated more than [-] taels of loans from major banks, which caused a sensation in the business circle of Qingqiu Prefecture.

It is reported that in order to obtain the loan smoothly, the prince hosted a banquet in the palace to entertain the shopkeepers of the major banks, and personally endorsed the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce, revealing that the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce had obtained the news of launching border trade.

So, which bank would not lend money?
Even the Zhao Family Bank, at the behest of Zhao Wanming, eagerly approved a loan of 5 taels.

Zhao Wanming was still figuring out what the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce was doing with such a large loan, the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce was already in action, and started negotiating acquisitions with one small shop after another.

This really puzzled Zhao Wanming.

What is the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce doing to merge those deserted small shops?Is it for charity?
Of course Zhao Wanming didn't think so, but he couldn't figure it out. Although he didn't dare to confront the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce, normal business competition still existed.

You can't tolerate it indefinitely, can you?Then the Zhao family still wants to live.

Zhao Wanming originally thought that the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce would take advantage of this loan to fight the Zhao Chamber of Commerce with great fanfare, but now it seems that he can feel relieved.

"Hey, what's this called?"

…………

The palace of the feudal king.

Qian Yuan naturally didn't have the heart to care about Zhao Wanming's mood, the villain should spend more time.

In Qianyuan's eyes, the Zhao family is a target that constantly builds their prestige, reminding other families all the time that this is the end of going against the feudal prince's mansion.

Don't heal the scars and forget about the pain.

Even with the operation of the Xingkong Grocery Store, except for necessary interventions, Qianyuan let Aning do the specific operations and didn't intervene much.

On the other hand, Ah Ning, every day is like being beaten with chicken blood.

Fortunately, An Ning had a large number of senior servants rewarded by the palace to help, including the palace maids, who were all recruited by An Ning and sent out to work on this matter.

Progress is rapid.

It is estimated that it will not be long before the starry sky grocery store will make its debut.

Qianyuan has been paying attention to the establishment of the Qingqiu garrison division headquarters, which is related to the success or failure of the war. He meets with Guo Jia every day to discuss the details.

After working for a while, the whole plan finally took shape.
