Two hundred and seventy-six chapters everything is difficult at the beginning
One thousand guan is still the starting price.
As soon as Xiong Ting said these words, several wealthy businessmen in the crowd couldn't help but change their expressions.
"This, this is too expensive, who can afford it?" The businessman who originally wanted to negotiate with Xiong Ting for the price of fifty guan now really feels that it is too expensive.
Xiong Ting smiled and did not answer. In fact, he himself felt that the price was too expensive, but there was no way. These were not his things, and he could not decide the price. These prices were set by Master Han. Originally
When Xiong Ting heard about it for the first time, he also suggested to Master Han that he should lower the price a little. He was worried that such a price would cause the mirrors to not be sold.
However, Xiong Ting's worry was met with a mysterious smile from Han Du. He told him: "When buying things, you have to study the psychology of the person buying them. Some people don't ask for the best when buying things, but the most expensive. They can spend five hundred dollars.
People who buy a dressing mirror don’t mind spending an extra thousand dollars to buy a customized one. Even if your custom-made one is exactly the same as the one sold for five hundred dollars, they are still willing to pay for it.”
Of course, Master Han also talked about what he bought, not a dressing mirror, but a status symbol, etc. But in Xiong Ting's view, he himself did not believe what Master Han said, but since the master had decided, he could only follow the master's request.
Just execute.
"Everyone," Xiong Ting spread his hands and said with a smile: "Everything in our store is of the same price. Whether you buy one piece, a hundred pieces or a thousand pieces, the price is the same."
When they heard that Xiong Ting refused to pay a penny, several businessmen felt depressed.
But Xiong Ting's next words cheered them up.
"But our store only accepts precious banknotes, which means that our store only accepts precious banknotes. Even if you come with silver, our store will not sell it."
Only recognize treasure notes but not silver?
Several people's eyes suddenly widened. Silver is now more valuable than treasure banknotes. Especially during the recent period, the value of treasure banknotes has dropped a bit. In less than a month, the treasure banknotes have been exchanged for nine times from the original value.
It was about one hundred and seventy cents, and it has dropped to nine hundred cents.
Originally, these businessmen thought that Xiong Ting, who was such a good mirror, would only accept money for transactions, but they did not expect that he would do the opposite and only accept treasure notes.
If this is the case, doesn't it mean that buying a mirror now is about 10% cheaper than it will be later?
The one who reacted quickly had already signaled his followers to go home and collect treasure coins.
As for other ordinary people, they just come in to see the wonders, especially the four huge transparent glasses installed on the door, which make them talk about it the most.
Xiong Ting was busy all day, and took the day's results to the backyard to find Han Du.
After meeting Han Du, Xiong Ting placed the sales account book of today's mirror next to Han Du. He sighed and said: "Sir, on the first day of opening, I didn't expect that the sales situation was not very ideal. There was a big gap with what we expected.
.”
"Oh?" Han Du put down the tea cup in his hand, picked up the account book, looked through it, chuckled and said, "We were able to sell more than 8,000 strings on the first day, which is not bad."
Xiong Ting was stunned when he heard this, looked at Han Du and asked doubtfully: "Isn't this pretty good? Didn't you say that glass mirrors are a big business with millions of dollars? Now on the first day, only 8,000 have been sold.
Duo Guan, when will those millions of Guan be sold?" In Xiong Ting's view, it was a good start on the first day, so why should we sell several times the usual amount? Now, even on the first day, we only sold this much
One point, so many hard-to-play products are going to be sold until the end of the Year of the Monkey?
Han Du was not as anxious as Xiong Ting. He poured a cup of tea for Xiong Ting and said comfortingly: "Don't be too impatient. Everything is difficult at the beginning."
Han Du said it was easy, but in the face of such a situation, how could Xiong Ting not be anxious? The current situation, on the contrary, has the flavor of 'the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is anxious'.
Seeing Xiong Ting about to speak, Han Du chuckled and waved his hand to stop, "Our mirror is special and different from ordinary things. Except for those businessmen, those who came today are not our customers. We are really
Customers haven’t come to the door yet, but you can buy more than 8,000 yuan, which is already considered good.”
To be honest, mirrors are not very attractive to men. Even if glass mirrors are magical, for men, having them is a plus, and they can live without them without any impact.
But for women, it's different. I don't know if women have the attributes of dragons and are particularly obsessed with shiny things. It will be the same whether it is in the future or now. This hobby of women has almost remained unchanged for thousands of years.
Otherwise, there will be no future where someone can use a broken stone no bigger than a bean to exchange a large amount of money from a woman's hand.
When Han Du was preparing to sell mirrors, he targeted women. Unfortunately, although the customs of the Ming Dynasty imitated the prosperous Tang Dynasty, they were influenced by the Song Dynasty after all. Therefore, although women were not prohibited from wandering on the streets, there were still only a few women who were willing to show their faces.
.
Han Du had no choice but to wait for the news about the mirror to spread for a while. When all the wives of wealthy families in the capital got the news, the sales of mirrors would naturally increase explosively.
For this reason, Han Du also specifically asked the Mu family of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion to help invite ladies from various houses to visit her dressing mirror.
Xiong Ting frowned when he heard this. He couldn't understand the meaning of Han Du's words, so he asked: "Our real customers haven't come to our door yet? Sir, who are our real customers?"
"You'll know when the time comes." Han Du couldn't bring himself to put these words on the table, so he had to laugh and explain them away.
When Xiong Ting heard this, he didn't feel comfortable asking further.
The name of Mingjingzhai also spread widely, especially the four huge glass walls that attracted the most talk, which were regarded by the people as a wonder in the capital. Many people came from the capital.
Outside, they did not hesitate to travel across the entire capital to come to Mingjingzhai just to take a look at the four glass walls. They couldn't afford mirrors, but the more they couldn't afford them, the more they relished in the four huge glass walls.
After returning home, he boasted more and more exaggeratedly. In this way, it was spread to ten, and then to a hundred. In just one day and one night, the name of Mingjingzhai spread throughout the capital.
Sure enough, starting from the next day, the sales of mirrors were getting higher day by day. However, after more than ten days, Xiong Ting could no longer receive the people who came into the store to buy mirrors, and all these people were left to the waiters.
He was too busy just to hold talks with various businessmen.
