"Bob, have you seen many people come to the store these days?" Best stood in front of the counter of his card repair shop with his hands behind his back, looking like a boss.
Bob took out his account book and replied: "There were quite a few people in the store a few days before the opening, and many people brought their spiritual cards for repairs. It may have slowed down a bit these days. Not many people came to the store, and there were not many people who repaired their cards.
”
"Don't rush, don't rush, we are a new store, this situation is normal." Best reassured him gently, "Sane and I are both veterans of card repair, and the neighbors in the neighborhood must trust our skills. Old Sam is gone, and little Sa
The Musuka store will close down sooner or later."
"When I passed by this morning, I found that Little Sam's card repair shop had hired a new card repairman, as well as a delivery boy and a chef."
"Haha, little Duke is out of his mind. His business has been taken away by me, and he is recruiting people lavishly. He will be out of business in two or three months!"
However, a few days passed again.
Best looked at the card repair shop that was empty of customers, and his face became more and more ugly: "Bob, you two, father and son, go check out Little Sam's card repair shop. Is there no one there to repair the card? Why?"
There’s not even a trace of anyone these days!”
Bob doesn't want to go to Little Sam's card repair shop, he always feels awkward going there.
But I have to go.
The father and son secretly went over to investigate, and then rushed back in shock: "Boss, something big has happened!"
"How to say?"
"Little Duke took people all over the nearby streets and alleys, saying that they were launching some kind of door-to-door service, and collected all the spiritual cards that needed to be repaired at home!"
When Best heard this, he was immediately horrified: "Do-it-yourself service? All the spirit cards have been taken away? He, he, why should he!"
Bob replied with a grimace: "I went to several houses and asked, and they said that they could also give their soul cards to our Best Card Repair Shop for repair, but these people trust Little Sam's Card Repair Shop more... As you know, boss,
Old Sam's has opened a store since Sheshou Town was still in Xiaofang City, and the neighbors are already used to Little Sam's card repair shop."
Sheshou Town was established during the pioneering war.
Before the end of the Pioneering War, this place was a material distribution center, and later evolved into a trading market. It was not until it was entrusted to the Black Snake family that Sheshou Town was officially established.
It can be said that before many people moved to Sheshou Town, the Little Sam Card Shop already existed.
Over the years, it has become a fixed choice for many people.
"Damn it!" Best jumped anxiously, "Go now and bring all the apprentices with you. Little Duke is running from house to house, and you are running from house to house, too, and bring all the customers over here!"
"This..."
"Why, you don't want to?" Best said with a cold face.
Bob quickly waved his hand: "No, no, I'm afraid that the trip will be in vain. Little Duke has already received a spiritual card."
"Then let's prepare the broken spirit card next time. At worst, the repair fee will be lower." Best paced back and forth in front of the counter, "You used to be the counter of Little Sam's card repair shop, and you are familiar to the neighbors; and
I'm a card repairman at Little Sam's card repair shop. The quality of card repairs is guaranteed, why can't I win customers?"
"Then...this side of the counter..."
"I'm looking at the counter. How many customers can still come over now!"
Bob had no choice but to take a few apprentices with him and hurriedly started sweeping the streets.
……
"Dutland, send this slide card to Mr. Leaf's house at No. 277 Xiaoyu Lane. The maintenance payment slip is 1 Silver Dragon 16 Bronze Dragon. Remember to have Mr. Leaf sign for confirmation."
In Little Sam's card repair shop, Sally at the counter quickly wrapped a spiritual card wrapped in a new cover.
Dutlan, who was resting at the door, immediately ran over: "Don't worry, leave it to me!"
As soon as Dutland left, Mrs. Sally took out another spiritual card and wrapped it up: "Steve, it's your turn to send it. Send this spiritual card to Doupa Clothing Store, No. 297 Second Vertical Street, for the repair bill.
Just give the clerk a sign for it."
"Okay, Lisa." Steve stood up quickly.
Duke, who was staying at workstation No. 4 to study scrapped spiritual cards, raised his head and glanced at the busy clerks. He was very satisfied with the current rhythm of Little Sam's card repair shop.
I took Dutland and Steve to sweep the streets for several days.
It not only stabilizes the customer base, but also makes oneself familiar in front of the neighbors.
Basically, after this trip to sweep the streets, the reputation Lao Sam has accumulated for many years will be smoothly transferred to himself. The quality and service of subsequent card repairs will continue to be maintained, and Duke will be invincible.
Word of mouth.
In this era without advertising, the impact on a store is huge.
"The most valuable thing that old Sam left to me was not the store, but this sign. Best couldn't see this, so he rushed to open a new store and wanted to cut me off."
Duke doesn't take Best seriously.
Best's connections and means are limited, and he is no match for him in normal competition.
"But after being tricked by Best, I got a lot less money." Duke thought with some regret.
Originally, Xiao Sam's card repair shop could earn one gold dragon every month. Although it has stabilized its customer base, the high share has increased wages and expenses, and the net profit has dropped to less than half a gold dragon.
"A 1-level spiritual plant can easily cost dozens of golden dragons. Even a 0-level spiritual plant that can sort out the spiritual aura needs several golden dragons..."
Lingzhi is a commodity with a price but no market.
They are basically monopolized by big families, and only a small amount will flow into the market, so the price is frighteningly high.
"I am now practicing the "White Paper Meditation Method", and the speed of condensing spiritual liquid is getting slower and slower. I must get a spiritual plant as soon as possible to arrange a spiritual aura in the courtyard."
Just thinking about it.
A customer walked into the store and asked as soon as he entered: "Can you purchase spiritual cards here?"
Sally immediately replied with a smile: "Yes, our store goes to Shenjiao City every week to purchase goods. If you have spiritual cards that you need to purchase on behalf of others, you can pay a deposit in advance and give them to us for purchase."
"Are you the boss?"
"I'm not, our boss is over there." Sally pointed to the repair area.
The customer said directly: "I want to talk to your boss."
When Duke came over, the customer couldn't help but frown: "You are the boss, you are too young."
"Being young doesn't mean you are unreliable. You haven't asked for your husband's name yet?" Duke didn't show any stage fright. "Our Little Sam Repair Card Store has a large purchasing agent service, so we can sign a contract."
"Really?" The customer thought for a moment, "My name is Ronnie."
"Mr. Ronny, please sit down and chat here."
Sally brought tea and Ronnie waited for her to leave.
Then he revealed the spirit cards he needed to purchase: "I need ten arcane cards, including five ice cone cards, three mage's hands, and two illusion cards... You must go to Shenjiao City for these arcane cards.
Purchased at the United Card Store, the total price is 27 gold dragons according to the market price, I can provide half a gold dragon as a reward."
Duke was surprised and happy. Ten arcane cards were worth 27 gold dragons and half a gold dragon as a reward. This was a big deal.
However, he controlled his expression very well and only showed a hint of surprise appropriately.
Ronnie stared at Duke's expression, a little surprised by Duke's calmness, and couldn't help but add: "In addition, you can lower the price, and any amount you lower will be included in your reward."
