[Pride and Prejudice] The right match

Luisa has wanted to open a Chinese restaurant for a long time.

France is a popular indicator in the United Kingdom. After China was fascinated by the French lady, a gust of Chinese style rolled up in Western society has not subsided for a long time.More and more Chinese items flowed into British society, such as tea, pottery, and silk, followed by a yearning for the mysterious and powerful East.For the British society that is in class turmoil, it is a wonderful place like Utopia. Marco Polo said that the east is full of gold. For such a rich and beautiful country, it is only natural to yearn for it. .

The Brook family has a small fleet of their own, and compared with the small risk, it is a relatively meager profit.But it was through such a fleet that Louisa cultivated a team of servants who were good at Chinese cuisine.The Brook family does not lack those loyal servants, and all nobles always have some skills to ensure the loyalty of their servants.

Luisa is sure that the unique charm of the profound Chinese food culture will conquer those British tongues that have been ravaged for hundreds of years.It is imperative to seize business opportunities first and grab the biggest and sweetest piece of cake.

The idea of ​​opening a restaurant was not hindered. After Mrs. Brook knew what Luisa was thinking, she just nodded, indicating that she knew it, and Luisa let go to do the rest.

With the support of Mrs. Brooke, Luisa planned, designed, and even invested.However, on the basis of believing in the charm of Chinese food, Luisa believes that nothing can satisfy everyone.

Instead of humbly begging others to come with an apologetic smile, it is better to let others beg you to let them in.Luisa understands the thoughts of those noble men and women too well, taste and price are indispensable.Louisa prefers to hold her head high and sell a pound for a hundred pounds, rather than being low-key and selling a pound for ten.

The positioning of the restaurant is very clear, that is, style and luxury.Identifying the audience and prescribing the right medicine is the foundation of making money.As long as it becomes popular, as long as the Chinese restaurant becomes a representative of celebrities, then, even if you buy a stewed leaf for a thousand pounds, those who need fame will flock to it, and even after buying it, they will say calmly One sentence is nothing.

In her previous life, Luisa had seen those bosses who slapped their faces to pretend to be fat, and still insisted on entering those high-end clubs. In this life, she has seen many children of declining families who may only have a hundred pounds in their pockets, but spend it. The 99 pounds spent in the tailor's shop, just for the well-tailored clothes with the name embroidered on it.Facade, sometimes a very scary thing.

But money is a big problem.

Brooke's family can't come up with so much working capital at one time, not to mention that this year's harvest is not good, many rents have been lost, and the family's finances are even worse.

"Five thousand pounds?" Louisa was a little distressed. This kind of money was worth the dowry of a daughter of a small noble family.If it really needs to be taken out, it would be too debilitating for the Brooke family. After all, the fastest way to cash out is to negotiate deals with those vampires—pawnshops.However, the Brooke family's collection appeared in the pawnshop, which must be an excellent talking point for the upper class.

Luisa sighed, her delicate eyebrows were tightly locked: "Is it necessary to invest such a sum of money? This is really a huge sum."

The client, Harbie Wedson, was a long-term collaborator of the Brooke family, and he was a shrewd figure.The fat and fat figure looks more leisurely under the clothes, and there is always a smile on his round face. If it is not because of his thin and long eyes, he can hardly see the two gaps. It's hard to imagine that such a person, under such a bad market economy, can manage the several industries entrusted to him without profit or loss. He is really a very powerful character.

After Mr. Wedson had an in-depth understanding of Louisa's ideas, he felt a little bit of admiration in his heart. In such an era, it is really amazing for a woman to think of such a way to make money, not to mention that this idea is not bad.

The entrustment money given by the Brook family to the client is not small. For such a kind owner, the client is always willing to provide them with the most professional ideas.Hubby Wedson squinted her slender eyes and explained to Louisa: "We need a famous designer, the most luxurious and tasteful restaurant. No matter the cost, the exquisite craftsmanship, expensive decoration, The most excellent work of art, I think you would rather arrange it into a top salon, all of which are piled up in pounds, my lady."

Luisa knew very well how much a luxury restaurant would bring to the Brook Manor.But what she knew better was that if anyone in the high society bought Brooke's luxury goods or even artworks at the pawnshop before the restaurant was built, then the restaurant would be ruined.It's a dilemma.

Mr. Wedson didn't just accept the commission from Brooke's family. He squinted his eyes slightly and remembered a character: "God bless! I remember! My lady, if you don't mind, Mr. Darcy might be a good partner." people."

"Mr. Darcy?" Luisa knows that joint venture is a common business model, and while sharing capital risks, it will also take away a lot of benefits.If the other partners were not honest, they would even tamper with the contract after the other party contributed their own share of funds, and swallowed the whole cake by themselves.Because of this, Louisa did not consider joint ventures when she opened the restaurant. On the one hand, she did not trust human nature;

Mr. Wedson also understood Louisa's embarrassment, and he didn't force it. He just thought that such a business opportunity was in front of him, but he couldn't benefit from it immediately, which made him feel a little itchy.Mr. Darcy had commissioned himself to find some Chinese who could cook, which was somewhat difficult.He felt a little regretful in his heart, but his conduct as a client prevented him from embodying his personal emotions: "So, what are your plans?"

Luisa gritted her teeth, the result of the delay of business opportunities is often the failure of the market pie.Now Mr. Darcy thinks of a Chinese restaurant. Next, no one is a fool. The market brought by the Chinese style will always be occupied by people a little bit, just like tea and porcelain. The monopoly in the early stage is really very important. things.If you can’t be a leader, then everything will be in vain. Once the market positioning is disrupted, then the initial investment will be in vain.When the mother cannot be persuaded to invest in an industrial factory, such a blow can almost be called fatal.

"Then please, I hope you can help me negotiate a fair price." Luisa didn't want to lose the big because of small things. Mr. Darcy is obviously a good partner, no matter in terms of character or personal charm.

Mr. Wedson was a little overjoyed, and showed a rare smug smile: "Please rest assured, I have served the Brooke family for more than 20 years."

"Thank you." Luisa said seriously. Mr. Wedson may not understand the significance of the restaurant to the Brooke family, but his help and dedication are the most precious and rare to Luisa.

Mr. Wedson was slightly taken aback, and bowed solemnly: "It is my honor to be able to work for you, my beautiful Miss Brooke."
