"Madam, please go slowly. Welcome to visit us next time!"
Under the farewell of the waitress, Mrs. Dong left the Gujin Building in a jeweled attire. She had several glass hairpins on her head, a string of glass necklaces around her neck, and a bunch of glass earrings on her ears.
, wearing two glass bracelets in his hands, and a string of glass bracelets in his hand.
Behind her are four maids of spring, summer, autumn and winter, each holding some glass products in their hands, including a complete set of the Four Treasures of the Study made of glass, which Mrs. Dong bought as a gift to her husband-in-law.
There are complete tea sets made of glass and complete sets of wine bottles and wine glasses, which are also used to give to your husband. When you have guests at home, taking out this tea set and wine set is definitely the best choice.
Of course, the most important thing is the various mirrors made of glass. The full-length mirror was carefully carried by two waiters from the ancient and modern building. The dressing table with mirror was also carefully carried by two children. The maid behind her had various kinds of mirrors in her hands.
Specifications of small mirrors, cosmetic boxes, etc.
There is also a large glass chandelier. Because this is too big, the Gujin Building will arrange for someone to deliver it to your home separately, free of charge. The service is extremely considerate, meticulous and considerate.
Of course, these large and small things cost Mrs. Dong more than 10,000 taels of silver, a full-length mirror costed 2,000 taels, a dressing table with a mirror costed a thousand taels, and a large glass chandelier cost another four thousand taels.
, plus other large and small mirrors, ten thousand taels of silver were just gone.
As for the glass ornaments that Mrs. Dong is wearing, they were all held during the opening of Gujin Building today, and they were offering two thousand taels for every purchase of 10,000 taels. Originally, she was just planning to sell a few large items.
But when I heard that I would get two thousand for free after spending ten thousand taels, I did some calculations, and I continued to lose money, so that I had to ask my maid to go back to the house again to withdraw money.
Inside the Gujin Building, business is still very brisk.
Because the location chosen for the store is in the most prosperous, lively, and luxurious area of the capital, the customers who come in are all wealthy people in the capital. At the same time, the Gujin Building opened, and the news that mirrors were sold here was also reported as soon as possible.
Spread quickly throughout the capital, more and more people have received the news, and more and more wealthy people are rushing over.
"Boy, how much does this full-length mirror cost?"
A young man with handsome appearance and elegant clothes stood in front of a full-length mirror and kept admiring himself in the mirror. The more he admired himself, the more handsome he felt, and he immediately said to the waiter next to him.
"Sir, this full-length mirror only costs two thousand taels of silver. Our store is opening today, so there are only nine mirrors for sale. Five have been bought just now, and only four are left. In addition, today you will get a hundred for every one thousand taels you buy.
You can also give away other products worth two hundred taels of silver for free."
When the waiter saw this, he quickly replied.
"Only four sides left?"
"wanted."
When the young man heard this, he immediately became anxious. He bought it without hesitation and then said to the servant beside him: "Go back to the house immediately to get the money."
"yes!"
When the servant heard this, he hurriedly went back to get the money. Looking at this posture, he knew that his son was going to lose his family again.
"Sir, would you like to take another look at this dressing table? This kind of dressing table is the most popular dressing table in the capital. It is a must-have item for a wealthy family. It is perfect to give to the woman you love."
"I want it~"
"Master, would you like to take a look at these four treasures of the study? They are round and round, crystal clear. Whether you use them for yourself or as gifts, they are also very good."
"I want it~"
"..."
"Sir, I see that you are an expert on wine. For wine tasting, you must use the corresponding wine vessels. It is the so-called small red clay stove, green ant newly baked wine, grape wine moonshine cup, and golden bottle of sake.
This is the truth behind a fight of ten thousand dollars, and a jade plate worth ten thousand dollars worth of delicacies."
"This set of wine utensils is definitely not to be missed. Our store opens today, with a limited sale of twelve sets. If you spend one thousand, you will get one hundred free. It is definitely a good deal. After today, there will be less supply, and there will be no discounts."
"Not bad, not bad, I'll take it."
Following the recommendation of the waiter in the store, a middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing looked carefully at the set of wine vessels made of glass. Not only was it crystal clear, but the workmanship was also extremely fine, which made people like it very much.
"Master, would you like to take another look at this set of tea sets? It's also very good. Today, there are only twelve sets for sale, and now there are only five sets left."
"Let's get a set."
"..."
On the third floor of the Ancient and Modern Building, Liu Jin was drinking tea leisurely and looking at the scenery outside. To be honest, the scenery in the capital was really not that interesting. There was no feasting and entertainment in this era, and all the houses were basically gray and black.
In addition, they are all very low, far less beautiful than the bustling cities of later generations.
Zhu Houzhao on the side was a little impatient with the wait, and said to Liu Jin beside him: "Go and ask how many are open now."
"yes!"
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately jumped up and walked downstairs.
Not long after, he stepped forward again and said, "Sir, it's already more than one hundred thousand taels of silver."
"It's already more than one hundred thousand taels of silver?"
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, his eyes widened immediately, and then a smile filled his face: "Haha, I'm getting rich, I'm getting rich, I'm really getting rich this time, I already have one hundred thousand taels of silver in less than an hour
It's open for business. If I don't like anyone from now on, I'll kill him with money."
"It took almost an hour to do a business of 100,000 taels of silver, which is much worse than I expected."
Liu Jin on the side looked dissatisfied. Originally, Liu Jin estimated that he would have to sell a million taels of silver on the first day of opening after having been thinking about it for so long. But now it seems that he is still
The spending power here in the capital is too overestimated.
"Is it too expensive?"
"Almost an hour has passed, and half of the morning has passed. Calculated, today's business is estimated to be at most 500,000 taels of silver."
Liu Jin murmured in his heart.
"Old Liu, people must be self-sufficient. It is enough to have such a business. This day's business is worth hundreds of thousands of taels. You must know that our Ming Dynasty's treasury only generates more than two million taels of tax revenue a year."
Seeing that Liu Jin was not satisfied, Zhu Houzhao patted Liu Jin on the shoulder and said.
"Of course I know this, but this is the capital, and the world's dignitaries gather here. The number of businesses on this first day is still less than I expected."
Liu Jin smiled and nodded.
"This is already a daily income of ten thousand yuan, what's the point of dissatisfaction? Anyway, these things we sell are not..."
Zhu Houzhao said with some pride. Before he finished speaking, Liu Jin quickly covered his mouth and said, "Ahem, it's okay for us to know some things. There is no need to say them."
"Yes, yes, it's good to know, it's good to know."
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he narrowed his eyes and nodded repeatedly.
Time is passing slowly.
On the opening day of Gujin Building, Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao didn't go there. They just stayed here in Gujin Building. Every hour, Liu Jin would go downstairs to report to Zhu Houzhao about the sales situation of Gujin Building.
By the time the sun rose, the morning was over. Gujinlou had achieved sales of 300,000 taels of silver in the morning. The rooms behind the store were filled with boxes of silver, and some of the boxes were full of silver.
Bank notes from Sihai Bank.
In the afternoon, Gujinlou began to really show its power.
Because there was a morning court in the morning, many real dignitaries in the capital were attending court. After coming down for the morning court, they learned about the opening of the Gujin Building, and hurried over to take a look.
At the same time, more and more people received the message, and more people were attracted. In the afternoon, the Gujin Building became even busier, and sales also climbed rapidly.
When the sun sets over the western mountains and the lanterns begin to light up.
Basically all the goods in Gujin Building have been sold out. During this period, they had to replenish the goods from the glass factory again, but they still couldn't withstand the hot buying craze.
All of this is naturally brought about by the sales strategy of limited sales and opening discounts. Many people will buy it immediately when they hear that there are only a few units left and they are hesitant at first.
"Sir, I have already calculated it clearly. Today's business totaled 978,560 taels of silver."
Liu Jin ran up to report to Zhu Houzhao.
"It's still close. It's only a few tens of thousands taels short of breaking a million."
When Liu Jin heard this, he said with a little regret.
