Just as the envoys were about to explain, Zhang Liang seemed to have seen a life-saving straw and immediately replied:
"make a deal."
Zhang Liang’s answer confused the envoys. They thought, isn’t he afraid of stealing something?
Then, Zhang Liang took out three dragon bones of the same size and instructed:
"If you don't have enough materials, come to me for more. As long as you can build it, it'll be fine."
Seeing these three huge, dazzling white dragon bones, the envoys were dumbfounded, and they roared in their hearts: "How many does he have? If it's not enough, can he take more? "
While everyone was confused, Zhang Liang waved to them and walked into the villa.
After the leader of the delegation gave instructions to his subordinates, he and other business elites including Wang Nai followed in.
Nana did not go in, mainly because the keel was very hard. She was responsible for cutting and supervising.
The first floor of the villa.
Zhang Liang sat on the sofa, while Wang Nai and the leader of the delegation sat opposite him.
The group of business elites, holding pens and notebooks, crowded in the back, with serious faces, afraid of missing anything Zhang Liang said.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Zhang Liang hung his hands on the back of the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked unrestrained and uninhibited.
Afterwards, Wang Nai gave the compiled report, which included every detail, to Zhang Liang.
ten minutes later.
Wang Nai was only halfway through his report when Zhang Liang interrupted him with a wave of his hand:
"It means that there is a group of merchants who have monopolized the prices of goods in the empire, right?"
"Yes, that's right." Wang Nai turned to the next page of the report and continued, "Below are some price lists and price increase ranges."
"No need to report."
When they heard that Zhang Liang was too lazy to even listen to the price, a layer of gloom instantly covered their faces.
It was obvious that Zhang Liang was indeed very capable. He had seen through the report before it was even finished.
only···
Wang Nai sighed in his heart.
He said so decisively that there was no need to report it, perhaps because he had realized that the situation had reached a point where it was beyond redemption.
This is no way.
After all, others have been lurking in the empire for several years and have made all necessary preparations for today.
They have formed a monopoly closed loop, and it is almost impossible to break them.
However, Zhang Liang's next words left them dumbfounded.
"Can't your empire handle such a small matter?"
"A small matter?"
Compared to the leader of the diplomatic corps, Wang Naixian was more shocked by Zhang Liang's words.
When the business elites standing behind heard Zhang Liang's words, beads of sweat appeared on their cheeks and they swallowed their saliva.
The next moment, their eyes became firm, and they put their pens on their notebooks, ready to take notes.
"They are monopolizing the market and raising prices, so we should start a price war with them. It won't be long before they are out of business."
Everyone thought Zhang Liang would be able to say something, but upon hearing this answer, the leader of the delegation uttered a cold "huh".
Everyone knows that price wars require huge financial support. Moreover, the other party will purchase your products in large quantities and then resell them at a high price. Isn’t this different?
"How can our empire accept your method..."
Before the leader of the delegation could finish speaking, Wang Nai reached out to stop him.
She knew that the person in front of her was Zhang Liang, and he would never speak in such a superficial way.
"Please advise."
"The method is very simple. You sell the goods at the same price as they were purchased. This way you have an absolute price advantage."
Hearing this, the leader of the delegation was even more disdainful. Isn’t this something that even a fool would know?
Labor is free?
No venue required?
If it doesn’t make money, who would want to do it?
However···
When he saw Wang Nai and the business elites writing down their thoughts, he was completely stunned.
I thought, what is there to record with this crappy method?
Even uneducated farmers can think of this.
"Master Zhang Liang, how can we make a profit?"
“Membership only.”
This was a word that Wang Nai and others had never heard of before.
Seeing their puzzled expressions, Zhang Liang continued to explain:
“There are two types of commodity prices: retail price and member price.”
Zhang Liang stretched out a finger, and a water ball suddenly appeared on it. After wetting his hand, he drew something on the table.
"The retail price is the market price, and the member price is our purchase price."
"If you want to buy goods at wholesale prices, you must become our member and pay an annual fee."
Seeing the two dots on the table, the leader of the delegation did not react, while Wang Nai and other elites widened their eyes in shock.
"!!!"
After recording it quickly, Wang Nai said excitedly:
"Are you trying to make money from members?!"
"Yes."
Selling goods at purchase price is actually an introduction.
People often only look at the surface. They are not so cost-conscious. As long as they see something cheap here, they will come here to consume.
After all, one is the purchase price and the other is the high price after monopoly.
Even a fool can tell who is offering the better deal at a glance.
The membership fees are the profits obtained from the public in the next year.
As long as people become members, it will not only improve customer stickiness, but also increase customer consumption.
People like to take advantage of small opportunities.
They all think that since they have become members, it must be a good deal to buy here, and the more they buy, the more they earn.
In this way, they will come here to consume for a long time and in large quantities.
Seeing this, Wang Nai looked at Zhang Liang in shock.
She was very curious about how he came up with this business model.
Is he really the legendary business genius?
Obviously, once this strategy is implemented, Zhang Liang will be able to immediately obtain one year's net profit, which is another astronomical figure.
As the number of members increases, the profit will continue to grow.
If hostile forces want to purchase goods in large quantities, all they have to do is add a purchase restriction order.
Zhang Liang's reputation will soon spread to the royal capital. Even if hostile forces want to imitate this business model, they will have no advantage under Zhang Liang's reputation.
Just then, there was another question.
“What about merchants, vendors, and farmers? They have formed a chain of interests.”
"It's very simple for vendors. We can open a big supermarket under my name and the name of Ying, and we will sell the goods ourselves."
Zhang Liang thought that Ying was not going to go back to being a princess, so in order to put her at ease, he had to at least give her financial security.
"Is the beneficiary Hotaru-sama?"
"Yes."
Wang Nai was very shocked to hear Zhang Liang's answer without hesitation.
She could have foreseen how much profit this project could bring, but Zhang Liang actually gave it up to the princess like that?
It has to be said that Zhang Liang's attitude towards the princess has reached a level that no one can match.
"Merchants will be replaced by adventurers, and a special green channel will be opened to allow the majesty of the empire to protect their safety. Taxes will be appropriately reduced to pass on the benefits to farmers."
Hearing this, Wang Nai looked at his report.
As for farmers, they are also the objects of exploitation. Due to information asymmetry, the purchase price of goods is lowered by 50% by merchants.
If prices can be restored and taxes reduced, farmers' incomes will increase significantly.
"Regarding the problem of manpower shortage, we can discuss with the farmers. If they become our exclusive suppliers, their offspring can come to the supermarket for internships and education, and they can also get jobs later, so that they don't have to worry about the future."
Upon hearing Zhang Liang's proposal, beads of sweat appeared on the faces of elites such as Wang Nai.
Obviously, Zhang Liang's strategy directly and fundamentally crushed their monopoly.
Not only that, while he was making a fortune, he also locked up his suppliers.
For farmers, who doesn’t want their offspring to have a bright future?
Helplessly, they are a vulnerable group, with no one to protect them, and can only be slaughtered.
As long as they could join Zhang Liang's army, they would surely realize that this would not only bring them wealth, but also allow their descendants to seize the opportunity to turn things around.
It’s amazing...
This strategy is perfect!
"Regarding the membership pricing, Wang Nai, you guys will calculate it."
Then, Zhang Liang looked at the leader of the delegation and continued:
"Let the emperor take care of the location of the supermarket, the opening of the green channel, the permanent commission of adventurers, and tax reductions."
After hearing what Zhang Liang said, the leader of the delegation was confused. Unlike Wang Nai and others who understood everything immediately, he needed a long time to absorb the information.
He looked at Wang Nai in confusion, and Wang Nai knew what he was thinking. He smiled confidently and said with certainty: "This irreversible matter has been resolved."
After hearing these words, the leader of the delegation showed a shocked expression.
Although he didn't understand, he was shocked.
Zhang Liang looked at the clock. It was 4:55 PM.
Seeing this, Zhang Liang stood up excitedly and shouted, "Oh no!"
Zhang Liang had made an appointment with Ying and the others to meet at the school gate at five in the evening, and then take them to eat ramen.
Only five minutes left!
"I have something urgent to do. If you have anything else to say, we can talk later."
Seeing Zhang Liang looking anxious, everyone felt nervous.
He thought, he could easily solve all the problems the empire encountered, so what kind of big thing could make him panic?
This is the Empire. The leader of the envoy group has many connections here. Thinking that he might be able to help, he asked:
"Are you in any trouble?"
"I'm in a hurry to eat ramen. Bye."
After hearing Zhang Liang's words, the leader of the delegation and Wang Nai and others were stunned.
Just as Zhang Liang was about to step out of the villa, he turned back and said, "I'll leave two more bones here. Remember to cover the cat bed!"
