[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

Brother Nine spent a lot of money to open this shop. He spent a lot of money renting the shop in a prosperous area. The decoration of the shop and the furniture in the shop all cost money.

The shop is ready, and the shop cannot be opened without goods.Brother Jiu also opened a workshop to produce goods that fill the shelves, which is another big expense.

A servant stood in front of Shuwan and Wu Fujin and bowed his head to report.

"The young one took Si Fujin's orders and went to the new shop. The items in that shop were similar to those in our shop, and the prices were cheaper than ours. The shopkeeper threw money outside, and the street was in chaos. The little one saw several people scrambling to pick up money, and their hands were trampled, but with such an advantage to take advantage of, more and more people went to that shop."

The boy took out several boxes of rouge powder, which he bought from Brother Jiu's shop.

Shuwan waved her hand to let the servant go down, she opened a box of rouge and smelled it, picked out some with a hairpin, and rubbed it on the palm of her hand.

Wu Fujin leaned over and took a look, "The powder is fine and the color is right. It seems that Lao Jiu is determined to fight against us."

Shuwan nodded, "The items are good and cheap. Our shop has met a rival."

Chun'er stood behind Shuwan, she frowned, with some puzzlement in her expression.

"Fu Jin, this servant thinks that brother Jiu throwing money to solicit customers like this will not help the business. This kind of rouge powder is expensive and expensive, and it is prepared for high-ranking officials and nobles. The customers who are paid to attract are poor people, for a few It doesn't matter if the copper plate is trampled on, who would buy this? Those ladies from rich and noble families won't go in when they see the shop door is so messy!"

Wu Fujin said: "You're thinking wrong, those who pick up money are not customers of the shop, they are the tools of Brother Jiu."

Shuwan explained in more detail: "Our shop has a good reputation and regular customers. It's not easy to steal our business. How can a newly opened shop advertise its high quality and low price? Of course it has to be a gimmick. Promote the magnanimity of this shop. Ladies and ladies from rich and noble families will certainly go to see such a magnificent shop."

Chun'er suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

Wu Fujin sighed, "How about...let's lower the price too! The products are all similar, ours is expensive, others' are cheap, and rich wives are not being taken advantage of."

Price reduction is desperate, there is no way to do it.

Shuwan shook her head, "I don't dare to lower the price. If we lower the price, brother Jiu's shop must also be lowered. In the end, it will become that whoever has the wealth is better than the other. It is easy to lower the price, but it is difficult to increase it." .Even if we win Ninth Brother, we will be seriously injured in the end."

Shuwan and Wu Fujin have spent a lot of effort to create a high-end and exquisite image of Ningzhuang Pavilion. If the price drops, Ningzhuang Pavilion will become an ordinary rouge shop.

Wu Fujin scolded Brother Jiu again in her heart, she didn't understand what Brother Jiu was thinking, why he followed Brother Eight so hard.

The fourth elder brother is an honest person, but now he is a prince, and among the many adult princes, he is more liked by the emperor. What is it that hinders the eighth elder brother?Why does he have to make trouble with others?

What's even more exaggerated is that Brother Jiu completely ignored her sister-in-law. When he wanted to bring down Ningzhuang Pavilion, did he ever consider that Ningzhuang Pavilion was also his own sister-in-law's property.

Thinking of this, Wu Fujin suddenly remembered that she, Shuwan and Jiu Fujin had also plotted against Brother Jiu's property.Brother Jiu's property confiscated by the emperor is now under the control of the three of them, thinking about it this way, Wu Fujin feels much better.

When it comes to careful consideration, she herself is also a villainous master, so she really has no right to complain.

Shuwan was thinking about the approximate amount of taels that Brother Jiu would need to open a shop, and suddenly came up with a good idea, but it still needed careful planning.

At this time, the eunuch next to Wu Fujin came in to report that Brother Wu had come.

Wu Fujin got up and went out to greet him, but just as he reached the door, he bumped into Fifth Elder Brother.

The fifth elder brother hunched over and covered his face with his hands, as if he was shameful.

Wu Fujin said angrily: "What kind of weird look are you doing? Fourth sister-in-law is still here!"

Fifth elder brother froze for a moment, he put down his hands and said embarrassingly, "Fourth sister-in-law is also here!"

Shuwan and Wu Fujin saw Fifth Prince's face clearly, and they both exclaimed in shock at the same time.

"Fifth brother, what's wrong with your face?" Shuwan pushed Chun'er and told her to ask the doctor.

The fifth prince's mouth and eyes were bruised from the beating, and there were dried blood stains on his nostrils.

The Fifth Elder Brother stopped Chun'er from asking for a doctor, "Just get me some wound medicine."

Wu Fujin thumped him on the shoulder, "You are already in this state, how can you not look at the doctor? Who beat you like this, you are so courageous!"

Brother Fifth sighed, "Lao Jiu opened a shop to fight with you. I was so angry that I quarreled with him a few times. It's not a big deal. I'm not seriously injured, so I don't need to call a doctor."

The fifth elder brother is a good brother. He quarreled with his brother, and it's okay to get hurt a little, just endure it and let it go.But if a doctor or an imperial physician is invited, the news of his injury will definitely spread.

The younger brother beat the elder brother until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. It was not good for Lao Jiu to spread the word. The fifth elder brother was angry with his younger brother, but he was still thinking about his younger brother.

Shuwan could understand Fifth Prince's painstaking efforts, so she took Chun'er out on the pretext of looking for medicine, leaving space for Fifth Prince and his wife.

Wu Fujin lightly touched the corner of Fifth Brother's mouth, "You, a brother, think about Lao Jiu, I don't know if Lao Jiu doesn't appreciate it. You are brothers, why did he hit him so hard?"

The fifth elder brother sighed: "Who is in charge of his property confiscated by the emperor now? It's you, the fourth sister-in-law, and the ninth younger brother and sister! He knows everything. I'll scold him. He can't feel angry. Tell me There was a quarrel. I was also very angry, and I moved my hands after arguing. But I... I have neglected riding and shooting for the past two years, and I am not as strong as him..."

The strength is small, so I didn't win.

Wu Fujin suddenly realized, no wonder Brother Jiu was so merciless in his actions this time, and Jiu Fujin didn't come to report the news. It turned out that he knew about their prying away of Brother Jiu's business.

The fifth elder brother said: "Let's forget about it! If you snatch Lao Jiu's business, it may not be very open and aboveboard."

Wu Fujin thought to himself: We got the business from the emperor, the emperor handed over the business to us, this is our ability, how can we not be bright!

She thought Fifth Prince was really pitiful, and she couldn't bear to go against his will.

"Forget it, I don't care about Lao Jiu's beating you, but things in the business field can't be ignored like this! At that time, whoever makes money and who loses depends on his own ability, and I won't let him!"

The fifth elder brother nodded again and again, "It's all up to you."

The fifth elder brother made a fuss with his younger brother, but it still did not change the ninth elder brother's determination to destroy the Ningzhuang Pavilion.

Shuwan also made moves here. She didn't lower the price, but she started to engage in activities.

As long as the customer enters the store and spends a certain amount, they can get a blind box. Most of the blind boxes are hot-selling products. In addition, there is also a small toy from Dagege Toy Store in the blind box.

Some are dolls, some are jigsaw puzzles, and some are small pendants. The blind box is full of sincerity.

Human beings cannot refuse gifts, let alone blind boxes.

Most of the people who can spend in the makeup shop are rich people, they don't want to be cheap, they want to be happy.Some people bought a lot of unnecessary things in order to open more blind boxes, perfectly interpreting what it means to put the cart before the horse.

Nine Brothers quickly learned, and they also started blind boxes, and their blind boxes were more willing to spend, and they wanted to stuff the products out.

It doesn't matter if this trick is learned, Shuwan still has another trick.

In addition to the blind box, there is another kind of activity that is very popular, that is the lottery.

The most important thing in the lottery is of course the prizes. Shuwan invited well-known craftsmen to make several exquisite and unusual jewelry, which were hung on the wall of the makeup pavilion.

Everyone who enters the store can see these exquisite jewelry at the first sight. The gemstones inlaid on them reflect the light, and no one can be tempted.

The lottery is a kind of metaphysics. Some people can get good prizes just by random drawing. Some people spend a lot of money and draw many times, but it is only the last prize. This feeling of being out of control is unbearable. Try again and try again.

Wu Fujin looked at the shop's account book and laughed from ear to ear, "Sister-in-law is really capable! If you set up a blind box and a lottery, our shop's business is better than during the Chinese New Year. Although the cost of these activities has increased a bit, But the overall profit is still made. The most important thing is that the customers have been retained, and they have not gone to Lao Jiu."

"This kind of activity can only solve the urgent need, not a long-term solution. How are you doing what I told you before?"

Wu Fujin smiled and said, "Don't worry! When did I fail to do what you told me? If you want, you can do it today!"

Shuwan also laughed, "Then, choosing a day is worse than bumping into it, today is today!"

Shuwan and Wu Fujin passed on the order, and after a few days, brother Jiu discovered that there was a problem with the supply of other industries.

Either the goods could not be transported into the capital and were detained halfway, or the supplier could not supply the goods. If brother Jiu wanted the goods, he had to spend a lot of money to buy them from other companies.

It doesn't work for Brother Nine to overwhelm others with power, and those who used to facilitate him have become inconvenient now.It's useless to spend money, not because the money is not easy to use, but because Brother Jiu has no money, and all his money is invested in the newly opened rouge shop.

Shuwan didn't want Ningzhuang Pavilion to compete with Brother Jiu on price. If Brother Jiu set up her Ningzhuang Pavilion, she would cut off Brother Jiu's retreat, ruin his other businesses, and cut off his roots.

If Shuwan wanted to do something, she would build a big one. The purchase channels of Brother Jiu's related industries are all under her control. If she doesn't buy goods for Brother Jiu, Brother Jiu will not be able to buy a single hair.

Of course, Shuwan was not so strong as to cover the sky with one hand. This time, she and Wu Fujin spent all their money. Shuwan used all the money she could use, including all her own money, and bought the goods from the supplier of Brother Jiu. Bought empty.

This blockage is only temporary. There are so many merchants in the world, Brother Nine will always find other supply channels, but when he finds a new channel, the day lily is cold, the shop is closed for half a month, and the business has already been snatched away. up.Unfortunately, it was the shop jointly owned by Shuwan and the emperor who grabbed the business.

Facing this kind of result, Brother Jiu couldn't accept it at all.

He was depressed, so he drank some wine at home, and when he got drunk, the ninth prince rushed to the fourth prince's house to talk to Shuwan.
