Cousin Chitose Chitose

"Shi, Shizi?" The little man looked at Wei Yichen in surprise: "Could it be that you are our boss?"

"That's right, you kid hasn't worked here for a long time, haven't you met the boss? I don't know if you were rude in front of the boss just now."

After the stewards said something, they said to Wei Yichen: "My lord, do you have something to tell us when you come to our shop today? Why don't you tell us in advance, so we can make arrangements."

"I'm here to inspect your work in the shop. If I ordered in advance, where can I see the most real situation?" Wei Yichen pointed to Jiang Yuanwan next to him: "This is my cousin, she also needs to learn to manage The shop is closed, I will bring her to our shop today to have a look."

The shopkeepers and the guy who had just received Jiang Yuanwan couldn't help becoming nervous when they heard this.

Fortunately, the next moment, Wei Yichen said: "For now, I am satisfied with your management. Please report to me about the current situation of our shop."

One of the chubby shopkeepers said: "Boss, I am in charge of Shu brocade, Song brocade, makeup brocade and other materials. Last year, my net profit was 12 taels, and in the first half of this year, my net profit was 700 taels. At present, the regular customers who buy these kinds of materials in our store include the Chen family of the Ministry of Officials, the Zhang family of the Minister of Rites, and the Li family of the Minister of the Ministry of War... The customers we can try our best in our store are Zhuangjia, Han's family, and Wu's family. My plan yes……"

Wei Yichen said with satisfaction: "It seems that you have made a very detailed plan. If that's the case, write me a plan. If you need my help, list it in the plan. I will send people around me To assist you, of course, I want to see that every payment I give is implemented, so you can also understand it as a kind of supervision."

Hearing the words, the fat shopkeeper nodded again and again: "This is what it should be."

In any case, it's a good thing that the owner confirmed his plan!

Then, several other shopkeepers also reported to Wei Yichen.There is no doubt that the stewards who can stay in this high-end cloth shop and work for a long time are extremely capable people, and those who are incompetent have been driven away early in the morning.

Wei Yichen asked very detailed questions. In addition to understanding the situation in the store, he also asked many questions that Jiang Yuanwan cared about.

Jiang Yuanwan didn't say anything, but felt very ironic in her heart, and silently remembered the answers to these questions in her heart.

Wei Yichen told the stewards who had reported to him: "My cousin wants to know about our store's management model, so please explain it to her carefully. If she has any questions, you must answer her patiently. "

"Yes, my son." The fat steward looked at Jiang Yuanwan with a smile on his face.It was the first time for their boss to bring a girl to the store, and none of the younger sisters of the boss had such treatment.It seems that this cousin, he has to treat her well.

"I don't know what kind of information Miss wants to know, I will tell you everything, and I will talk endlessly."

Jiang Yuanwan asked: "Your shop is so prosperous now, it must have taken a lot of effort. How did you attract customers when you first opened?"

"Miss also knows that the original owner of our shop was the Wen family. When it was first opened, it was the period when Mrs. Wen was the prince and tutor. For the sake of the Wen family, he wore clothes made of materials from our shop to attend several important occasions, and since then, our shop has gained a reputation in the capital."

When Jiang Yuanwan heard that her mother had such a relationship with this shop, she felt a little complicated.Her mother left too early and left her with too few memories, so that now, she can only learn about her mother's past from other people's mouths.

Jiang Yuanwan settled down and brought her attention back. In this situation, she must not lose her composure.

"So that's the case... Do you still have to go the upper route?"

"Our shop is filled with high-quality materials. Ordinary people can't afford them at all. Merchants can afford them, but they are not qualified to wear them. So we can only find a way from the upper circle. If the young lady runs a shop, it may not be We have to use our method. However, Miss must find out the location of the shop, and then find a way to break into this class."

"Well, what you said is very true. By the way, you are in the fabric business, so do you know anything about the ready-to-wear business? For example, the styles that are popular every year."

The fat steward said: "Miss is running a tailor shop? When it comes to dressing, it is the most fashionable place in the south of the Yangtze River. Many styles that are popular in Beijing are passed down from there. You might as well go and find out carefully."

Next, Jiang Yuanwan asked several questions one after another, and the fat steward answered them one by one. The two chatted happily, and Jiang Yuanwan also felt that this trip was not in vain.

Looking at this scene, Wei Yichen felt rather uncomfortable.

He also knows some questions, why didn't Jiang Yuanwan come to ask him, instead of asking the manager?

If Jiang Yuanwan knew what Wei Yichen was thinking, she would definitely roll her eyes at him.He was the one who asked her to come here, and he was the one who was unhappy, what did he think (ノ｀Д)ノ!

Next, Jiang Yuanwan followed Wei Yichen to the book shop, which was adjacent to the tea shop, and they took the books to the tea shop and drank a pot of tea.

Turning the pages of the book at a leisurely pace, sipping the tea quietly, Jiang Yuanwan felt that she hadn't experienced such a leisurely life for a long time.Still, it feels really good.In the future, if she is lucky enough to be able to get out of the current situation, maybe she can follow Wei Yichen's example and open a tea shop to experience the tranquility of the years and the stability of this world.

It is true that among the several shops under Wei Yichen's name, the high-end cloth shop that follows the path of high officials and dignitaries is the most profitable, but Jiang Yuanwan found that her favorite is this quiet tea shop.

Not only Jiang Yuanwan was satisfied, but Wei Yichen was also satisfied.Just now in the cloth shop, Jiang Yuanwan only talked to the stewards and ignored him at all, but now, they can still sit and chat together.

After resting in the tea shop for a while, Wei Yichen saw that it was getting late, and the snack shop was not in the same direction as the tailor shop that the Marquis of Changning gave to Jiang Yuanwan, so he suggested: "Today my inspection work is almost done, there is another shop It’s the same if you go to see it another day. But you, the new tailor-made clothing store, you’d better go and see it yourself. If you encounter any problems, we can discuss it.”

Just as Jiang Yuanwan had this intention, she readily agreed, and they stayed in the cloth shop and tea shop for a long time.Some shops that I planned to go to can't go, so I can only wait until the next time I leave the house.

Wei Yichen looked at Jiang Yuanwan who was walking beside him, and was in a good mood.As long as Jiang Yuanwan is still thinking about visiting the other shops, it won't be too far before they leave the house together next time.

However, their good mood only lasted until they arrived at the tailor shop.

The ready-to-wear store that Marquis Changning gave to Jiang Yuanwan is located on the busiest street in the capital, and those who can open a store on this street are either rich or expensive.Jiang Yuanwan had already sent someone to inquire about it. This land is worth every inch of land. No wonder the wives and ladies in the Hou's mansion looked so weird when Marquis Changning gave her the shop.

The ready-to-wear store is very large, with all kinds of clothes in it. The customer group of this store is mainly young people and middle-aged men.Men's clothes don't have as many styles as women's, and there are only a few types that come and go. At most, some patterns are embroidered on the neckline or cuffs to show the difference.Not to mention, in terms of visual effects, it is far inferior to Wei Yichen's cloth shop.

Jiang Yuanwan stepped forward and touched the material of some ready-made clothes.The materials used in this store's ready-to-wear clothes are excellent, but the business seems to be very mediocre.

Wei Yichen seemed to understand what Jiang Yuanwan was thinking, and explained to her in a low voice: "The materials in my cloth shop can be worn by men, women and children. This shop only sells men's clothes, so naturally there are many fewer customers. Furthermore, some elegant families don’t wear clothes made outside. They just buy materials and let the sewing maids in the house do it.”

"Yes, although the ready-made clothes here look good, they are no better than the sewing maids from rich families. The clothes in this shop are still expensive, and people who are not from rich families must not be able to afford them. There are not many buyers in this store, so I'm not surprised at all." Jiang Yuanwan echoed.

The conversation between the two was not loud, but the clerk in the shop had good ears, and when he heard what they said, he gave them a displeased look.Today, Wei Yichen and Jiang Yuanwan both went into battle with light clothes and unremarkable clothes. The guy looked them over from head to toe, and became more and more contemptuous.

"Where did you come from? Since you can't afford the clothes in our shop, don't stick around here! How dare you touch them? This material is very expensive. If you accidentally break it, can you afford it?" !"

As he said that, the guy was about to step forward and push Jiang Yuanwan aside, but was blocked by Wei Yichen.Wei Yichen knocked hard on the guy's extended wrist quickly and accurately: "I've never seen you treat guests like this, and you even start to touch the guests!"

The guy grinned his teeth in pain, and when he heard this, he yelled: "What kind of guests are you two funeral stars? I think you are here to find trouble!" Then he yelled loudly: "Someone is making trouble here! Get them out of here quickly!"

After a while, the lazy guys in the store gathered around: "You are making trouble?"

With such a commotion in the shop, it was impossible for the shopkeeper to not show his face.The shopkeeper is a bamboo pole in his thirties with a mean face.I saw him stepping forward in front of the crowd, with an impatient expression on his face: "Which murderer dares to cause trouble in our shop? Could it be that he wants to make trouble with the Marquis of Changning?"
