The next day, the bosses from the commercial street in the north of the city braved the cold wind and came to the Governor's Mansion.
The sky is as dark as ever, with drizzle, making people feel even colder.
Some people have already arrived in the meeting room of the Governor's Mansion, and the Governor's Mansion has prepared warm tea to entertain them, but Fang Yuan has not arrived yet.
"Do you think anyone will come to open the business in such a cold weather?"
"I think there will be very few people. It's too cold. Not many people are willing to go out all the way unless it's necessary."
"I think so. Governor Fang really doesn't know how to pick the time. He thinks that putting up a billboard in one city and three counties will do the trick."
Some people had questions, some sneered, and most people remained silent.
As the last sarcastic words came out, the scene became quiet.
There are too many people, and no one can guarantee whether someone will tell Fang Yuan, so it’s better to be careful.
Slowly, there were more and more people, and all the more than 20 seats in the conference room were full except for the main seats.
Those who come from behind can only sit on spare stools outside.
Among them, Du Miaoyan, Ji Rufeng and others have also arrived.
Finally, at about the same time, Fang Yuan walked into the conference room.
"Meet Governor Fang!"
Everyone stood up and saluted with a friendly attitude.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
Fang Yuan nodded and walked towards the main seat.
At this time, the total number of people in the conference room reached fifty-eight, and five people were absent.
There is no need for Fang Yuan to count the names in person, the state officials will inform him of the situation before he enters the venue.
When Fang Yuan came to the main seat, he did not sit down in a hurry, but looked around the whole place.
"Zhang San, write down the absentees."
"Those who are less than a quarter of an hour old will be eliminated, and the rent paid will be refunded."
Fang Yuan said calmly.
The words fell, and then he slowly sat down.
Upon hearing this, everyone's originally lazy attitude was slightly corrected.
It was obvious that Fang Yuan was trying to scare the monkeys and put his attitude directly on the table.
"Well, Governor Fang, I am the housekeeper of the Xue Mansion. My young master was poisoned and fell into a coma. My young lady has to take care of him and cannot be here. I am here to represent you."
The housekeeper of the Xue Jiaoyan siblings stood up to explain their identities, fearing that Fang Yuan would mark him as absent.
"I know, sit down."
Fang Yuan nodded.
He already knows this.
You must submit an invitation letter before entering the Governor's Mansion. The steward of the Xue Mansion had already explained this once, and the state officials had already relayed it.
"First of all, thank you for coming. I won't say so much to be polite."
"I believe everyone already knows that I have advertised in one city and three counties in Liaozhou. Our commercial street in the north of the city will open the day after tomorrow. Now, if you have any questions, you can give us feedback."
Fang Yuan said slowly.
A few days ago, Fang Yuan asked people to place billboards in other three counties.
In addition, billboards have also been placed in some large villages with more than 2,000 people.
Liaozhou Chengbei Commercial Street will open the day after tomorrow, offering a 50% discount on all products for a limited time of three days.
"President Fang, will anyone come to buy things in such a cold weather?"
The housekeeper of the Xue Mansion stood up and was the first to ask a question.
Because of the cold weather, my young lady and young master stayed at home and refused to go out, not wanting to respond to Fang Yuan's opening.
Now that the young master is in coma due to absorbing too much smoke, he is worried that he will not be able to move the shop to the commercial street in the north of the city by himself.
It is worth mentioning that in order to save money, Xue Jiaoyan, apart from their siblings, only he and his wife were left in the huge house, a total of four people.
"Don't worry, I said I will provide you with traffic, just open on time."
Fang Yuan said calmly.
After the words fell, some people sneered.
They don’t believe that Tianfangyuan can still receive a lot of people in such a cold weather.
Unless ten or eight are also the flow of people, then they have nothing to say, they just swat flies.
No, there are no flies in the cold weather, but there are quite a few in the cold wind.
"Thank you, Governor Fang, for clarifying my doubts."
The housekeeper of the Xue Mansion sat down.
"Next question."
Fang Yuan glanced at everyone present.
"President Fang, is the price too low if you sell it at a 50% discount?"
"I have several products whose profit does not exceed 50%. If I sell them at 50% discount, I will lose money."
"Can you raise the price first and then sell it at a 50% discount, or only provide a small number of products while supplies last?"
Wang Zhicheng asked.
He originally wanted to directly raise the price and give it a 50% discount.
I believe that many people here think this way. After all, no one loses money for any reason.
But considering that Fang Yuan had saved Wang Shiyu, he also agreed to respond to Fang Yuan's policy, so he raised it on the spot.
"It is not possible to increase the price by another 50% off, nor is it possible to deliberately provide a small amount of goods and sell them at the current market price."
Fang Yuan shook his head and said firmly.
"President Fang, we will lose money this way."
"That's right, we won't do loss-making business."
"We moved to the commercial street from other places just to make money. If we were going to lose money, why would we move there?"
Many people have opinions.
The conference room suddenly became like a vegetable market.
"Quiet!"
Fang Yuan slapped his hand on the table several times.
Everyone at the scene slowly became quiet and looked at Fang Yuan.
"Before this, I have provided you with two plans."
"More than 50% of the people here choose option 2. If you sell at a 50% discount, you will not lose money."
"The rest of you may lose some money, but you can estimate whether the commercial street is worth it based on the flow of people on the first day it opens. If it doesn't work, it will be closed the next day and the rent will be refunded."
"You can't lose much money in one day's business. There will definitely be some risks in doing business. If you are not willing to bear this risk, I suggest you not do business."
Fang Yuan said slowly.
The eyes become slightly sharper.
Some people don’t know if they have forgotten or if they are deliberately causing trouble.
If you choose Option 2 with Fogyuan Guarantee, there will be no loss in terms of one year’s operating revenue.
Of course, after allocating 10% of the profits to Fang Yuan, they don’t know whether they will lose money to Fang Yuan. That’s not his business.
"What Governor Fang said is absolutely true. I have no objection to this."
Wang Zhicheng said again.
He is considered a big family in Liaozhou City.
There is no lack of guarantee from Fang Yuan, so I chose option one.
According to what Fang Yuan said, he would return the rent and he would no longer have any objections.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Isn’t it just a day’s business situation? The Wang family in Liaoshan is not a problem at all.
"It's no problem for me to wait."
Others answered one after another.
"I would like to emphasize one point regarding the 50% discount sale."
"I will set up a supervision agency in the commercial street. If I find that any of you deliberately raise and lower prices or deliberately provide small quantities of goods, such goods will be confiscated."
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
Vaccinate those present so that they don’t have a lucky mentality.
There was a slight uproar at the scene, but no one objected. After all, the big family didn't care about the money, so the small merchant chose option two.
"If you have any questions, you can continue to provide feedback."
"If there are no problems, take a look at these commercial street business regulations."
Fang Yuan stopped asking them questions.
Just ask them directly if they have any ideas.
With that said, Fang Yuan motioned to Zhang San beside him to issue the business regulations.
It may be that the business regulations diverted their attention and they did not ask other questions.
On the contrary, I am dissatisfied with many business regulations, feeling that they are restrictive and biased towards customers.
For example, every clerk should smile to every customer and provide the best service.
For example, if customers are dissatisfied with them, they should correct it in time.
"Guys, these are all minor issues."
"If you can make money and make a lot of money, are these all problems?"
Fang Yuan said calmly.
He did not answer their opinions, but asked rhetorically.
"What Governor Fang said is absolutely true."
"Besides, I don't personally look after the store. I just ask the shopkeeper below to pay attention."
Ji Rufeng and others echoed Fang Yuan's request in advance.
People like him, and more than 80% of the people present, would not personally guard the shop.
They are all managed by the people below, so Fang Yuan's business regulations have no impact on them.
Ji Rufeng and others agreed one after another, and Wang Zhicheng and others also felt that there was no problem. In the end, the minority obeyed the majority and agreed to implement the commercial street business regulations.
Afterwards, the meeting ended, everyone stared at the cold wind and went back, asking the people below to prepare for the opening of Chengbei Commercial Street the day after tomorrow.
Two days passed in a row.
Chengbei Commercial Street officially opened today.
Surprisingly, it has been cloudy for most of the month, but today it miraculously cleared up and there was sunshine.
However, the weather is still cold, just not as cold as a rainy day, but it is still uncomfortable.
"Oh my God, it's actually sunny."
When Du Miaoyan went out, she was full of surprise.
Today is the first day of her tea shop's opening, and she wants to join in the fun.
In fact, Du Miaoyan wanted to support Fang Yuan's policy, so she decided to go there in person.
"It means that God will help your sweetheart, hahaha..."
Princess Xiangcheng joked from the side.
She also got up early today and went with Du Miaoyan.
The two of them got on the carriage and rushed to the commercial street in the north of the city, arriving at about the time of Chenshi.
When the two arrived, there were already many people in the commercial street, but they were all people from shops.
Si Shi is in his prime, and all the corresponding shops that participated in the meeting two days ago are open today and are waiting for their opening.
At this time, scattered people have appeared near the commercial street, waiting for the opening of the commercial street.
If Fang Yuan were here, he should remember them.
The villagers of Sanjia Village, the village chief and the Arei people.
It was past half time when Fang Yuan arrived.
Under the leadership of Fang Yuan, the commercial street was officially opened.
But there are only sporadic flows of people, making the commercial street look very deserted.
Today, in order to see how Fang Yuan directs the flow of people, Pei Yinghua also came in person.
As a person with high prestige in Liaozhou City, many shop owners went to sit in his grain shop after arriving.
After all, there is no business, so there is no need to stare at your shop and have everyone come over to show your goodwill.
Moreover, Pei Yinghua's place is close to the entrance, so it is easy to see if any customers are coming.
"It's really funny. Is this what he calls the flow of people?"
Someone sneered.
I don’t mind being heard at all.
Many people agreed and felt that Fang Yuan was not very good.
Pei Yinghua listened to the whole process without interrupting and sipped the tea calmly.
Based on his understanding of Fang Yuan, he felt that Fang Yuan would not be aimless.
But the situation in front of him made him have to doubt, is Fang Yuan really incapable?
......
Chengnan Cement Factory.
Factory director Liao Fengmao is away, and deputy director Liu Chengan is in charge.
At this time, Liu Chengan was standing on the steps of the large square inside the factory. Below him was a dark crowd of 1,650 workers.
The cement factory has nearly 2,000 workers, which is the largest among many factories in Liaozhou. The number of workers in other factories has not yet exceeded 500.
"Today is the opening day of Chengbei Commercial Street, which is related to our daily life."
"According to instructions from superiors, the cement factory has a day off today, and we have advanced everyone's monthly salary for half a month so that everyone can have fun."
Liu Chengan said loudly.
When it comes to holidays, workers are in a general mood.
They are all short of money now and want to work to make money.
But when I heard that half a month's salary was advanced in advance, I immediately became excited.
"Quiet, quiet, listen to me!"
Liu Chengan shouted, ordering them all to be quiet.
After shouting several times, the thousands of workers slowly became quiet.
"I have advanced your monthly salary in advance so that you can go to the commercial street to buy some things and go back to get together with your family."
"Remember, no matter what you buy, you must buy a little. If anyone doesn't buy it, I will know it. Next time, he will not have any share in the advance salary advance. Do you understand?"
Liu Chengan said loudly.
According to the instructions from the superiors, workers at the cement factory were given a holiday today, and half a month's salary was advanced in advance to allow them to go shopping in the commercial street.
"Got it!"
The workers were enthusiastic and shouted loudly.
The voices of thousands of people rumbled, and the whole factory seemed to collapse.
This was the first time Liu Chengan stood in front of so many workers. He was so frightened by their reply that he almost backed away.
He was quite puzzled by such operations as lining up neatly and shouting in unison, but Liao Fengmao didn't explain it to him when he left, so he didn't dare to ask Fang Yuan.
So he did exactly how the cement factory originally communicated with workers.
"Go to the finance office to get your monthly salary."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Liu Chengxin shouted with lingering fear.
"Yes!"
Thousands of workers responded again.
This time, it’s more tidy than the time before.
Hearing Liu Chengan's heart beat faster, he was terrified.
Almost at the same time.
Workers in steel factories, weaving mills, grain warehouses, porcelain factories, spice factories, etc. have taken holidays one after another.
They all advanced half a month's salary in advance and asked to go to the commercial street in the north of the city to buy something, no matter how valuable it was.
......
Chengbei Commercial Street.
From time to time, a small group of people will arrive.
But compared with the huge commercial street, the flow of people is really too small.
Many shop owners gathered at the grain store where Pei Yinghua worked, discussing the problem of this commercial street.
"I will close this place after the close of business today. Where are you?"
"Do we still have to wait until the end of business today? I'm still thinking of closing it for lunch and then not opening it again."
"Hahaha, even what the boss said is true, then I won't open it again after lunch."
Everyone laughed.
No one is optimistic about the opening of Chengbei Commercial Street.
The opening has already passed, and only a few people have arrived.
All together, there were only fifty or sixty people, and they couldn't hold up the scene at all.
"Shut up!"
Pei Yinghua, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.
There was disbelief in his voice and suppressed anger.
The smiles at the scene stopped suddenly, and everyone didn't know why Pei Yinghua suddenly stopped them.
But soon, they heard talking and laughter coming from the south of the city.
Everyone looked over one after another, their eyes slowly widening in disbelief.
People, many people, a large, dark crowd came.
In their shock, the cement factory workers entered the commercial street.
With the arrival of thousands of people, the commercial street instantly became lively and full of popularity.
That's not all. Workers from steel factories, weaving mills, grain warehouses, porcelain factories, spice factories, etc. also arrived one after another.
In a short period of time, the originally deserted commercial street became more bustling than any other market at any time.
"Mr. Pei, I'm going back to do business first."
Someone reacted and quickly stood up and saluted Pei Yinghua to leave.
Others did the same, leaving quickly with shock and excitement.
Such a large amount of traffic may be converted into money.
Soon, all the shop owners in Pei Yinghua's place were gone, but the number of people increased.
This place is a prime area for human traffic, and it is the first place customers pass by when they go to the commercial street.
Therefore, many people came in soon.
But Pei Yinghua doesn't need to take care of all this. There are shopkeepers and waiters in the shop.
"It's amazing, you can still do this."
"But it's only for a day or two, and then it will be deserted again."
Pei Yinghua saw through the source of the traffic.
They are Fang Yuan and Ji Rufeng, workers in their factory.
It's a pity that factory workers can't come every day.
Today, Fang Yuan just asked them to support the scene in order not to lose face.
After today, Chengbei Commercial Street will be what it should be.
Thinking of this, Pei Yinghua sneered, feeling that Fang Yuan's method was low-end and treated the symptoms rather than the root cause.
But suddenly, Pei Yinghua's smile stiffened, and he realized that he had missed something - the families behind these people.
After today, some of these workers will definitely share the commercial street in the north of the city with their families.
The change in the flow of people at that time will be the real change.
