Chapter 012 Business Promotion

"Why is this blank?"

"It's easy to operate if you have a blank space." Bian Zibai approached Lu Ji, and smelled the faint fragrance of osmanthus from the opposite side with a strange expression. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by the bitter smell of soap beans: "What strange smell?"

Lu Man was originally very confidently sitting in front of Bian Zibai. When Bian Zibai asked abruptly, he couldn't help but become embarrassed and stiff, as if his body was fixed. He turned sideways sideways to find the source of the strange smell. In Bian Zibai's opinion, Lu Man is a loving, very beautiful, and a little older in this era (an old woman who has not married even at the age of twenty). He is not only lazy, spending money, but also unable to save money.

Of course, as a woman, love of beauty is a natural attribute, and basically every woman has it. Anyone who can dress up has no reason to give up on herself. What's more, Lu Ji has a good foundation.

Incense and bathing is very expensive. Only in Diqiu, there are only one shop that runs soup baths. The regular customers inside are all noble ladies. Lu Man has just sold the operating rights of the restaurant. Anyway, since he will not do business in the future, it is better to exchange it for real money. Looking at the pile of huge small cloth and Zhongbu, Lu Man felt that he should reward himself. So she enjoyed the baptism of fragrant soup, but unfortunately she was despised. Lu Man, who was secretly sulking, had no intention of asking about the plan of Bian Zibai's restaurant and left angrily. Before leaving, he kicked Bian Zibai proudly, and was very woman-like.

Fortunately, no one saw it, otherwise Lu Ji would become famous in Diqiu City again.

A twenty-year-old woman who does not give birth to a child and acts spoiled is the biggest sin. According to secular standards, Lu Man should be the mother of three children now, well, she can still get pregnant with one in her belly.

License is very important. In later generations, the catering industry will face various conditions and restrictions, business licenses, health licenses, fire protection...

In Wei State, only the restaurants issued by the government can open. In fact, it is a troublesome in Wei State, and there is no need for these troublesome trivial matters at all. In Qin State... Well, there are really no decent restaurants on the streets of Yongcheng in Qin State. The exquisite fine fish sashimi can only be eaten by big cities in the Central Plains. Qin State, Hum, the barbarian country. This is the regional contempt of the vassal states in the Central Plains, and it has always existed. The land is fertile, convenient transportation, and a large town for business. In theory, Duke Wei should have lived a very comfortable life, but in fact, Duke Wei has been very frugal in the Gregorian calendar. He is like a stingy man who has never seen money, and he can't pull it out after getting into the eyes of money. The reason is very simple. Duke Wei's geographical location is so good that it has become a competition for the Central Plains.

A place where military strategists must fight, several major wars that shocked China took place outside the capital of Wei, the Battle of Chengpu, the Battle of Tieqiu... The army of Jin, the army of Chu, and the army of Qi, were very arrogant every time, and they were not something that Duke Wei could afford to offend. Not only did he have to send money and supplies, but he also forced Duke Wei to stand in a team. You are from the other end, saying it was from Jin! The people of Chu were unwilling; be a younger brother to Qi, and more powerful enemies were angered, so he wanted to move the capital to the mountain. But around Wei... there was no mountain. If other vassal states had endless plains, they would have woken up long ago, but the king of Wei had no place to cry! The Duke Wei, who could not afford to offend, had been wandering in the embarrassing situation of being a master and a slave.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were more than twenty major alliances in Wei State. Just by receiving so many princes, the Duke of Wei's heart was not small at all than his territory.

Iron Hill Alliance.

The Alliance of Dunqiu.

Qingqiu Alliance.

Five Deer Alliance.

Tanyuan Alliance...

Mr. Wei has been on a diet for many years but can't stand the consumption of these foreign "bandits" robbers once. Therefore, Mr. Wei is very sad. There are almost mice running away in his warehouse. Can he live without stinging?

Diqiu may not be as good as Anyi of Wei, and it cannot be compared with the size of Linzi City in Qi. However, compared with ordinary cities, Diqiu still has enough confidence. It has the most advanced agricultural facilities during the Warring States Period and the best silt fields in the Yellow River. The grain output has always been envied by the surrounding countries. Handicrafts are also very developed, and salt, iron and bronze crafts are among the best in the Central Plains. It is also the first country to abolish slavery and enter the feudal system. It was at least 80 years earlier than the reform of Wei, 100 years earlier than the Wuqi reform of Chu, and 120 years earlier than the Shang Yang reform of Qin, and has completed the transition from slavery to feudal system.

Logically speaking, Wei Guo was the first to complete the reform, so he should be forced to force him!

But this is not the case.

Whether it is the reforms of Wei, Chu, or Qin, they are supported by the monarch and promoted by the powerful ministers. The purpose is to revitalize the country and enhance the overall strength of the country. But Wei is not. The reforms of Wei are at least unwilling to happen from the position of Duke Wei, but there is no way for slaves and craftsmen to rebel... The monarch's army faces a group of sharpened bamboo poles with sticks and hammers, and is foolishly holding a sharpened bamboo pole, and there is a group of vulnerable mobs. But after the death battle, the army of Wei found that it could not be defeated. What should we do?

Promise the request of slaves and craftsmen, obtain civilian status, abolish slavery, and enjoy the treatment of the people. At least Duke Wei is also the master of Wei, otherwise... Duke Wei may be in danger of being exiled and living in exile.

At this time, Duke Wei was extremely looking forward to his elder brother coming forward to help him, but unfortunately, none of them came. The final result was that the slaves won, and the reform of the Wei Kingdom won, but the country was even weaker.

In the history of the Wei State, the uprising called the "Rebellion of Hundred Works" completely broke the rules and regulations under the slave system, so that the people of the Wei State had openness and tolerance that other vassal states did not have in this era. The ability to accept new things was definitely a pioneer in the trend of the times. The reforms of other vassal states all had a resounding name, "Li Kui Reform", "Wu Qi Reform", and the subsequent 'Shang Yang Reform', etc. But when they arrived in Wei State, they could only use the "Rebellion of Hundred Works" to fool them. At that time, Duke Wei stood on the head of the palace with a desperate look on his face, and kept wailing in his heart: "It's fine if you were bullied by Jin, bullied by Chu, and bullied by Zheng State, even the unruly people would bully me!"

The people of Weiguo are free because they are the pioneers and the weather vane of an era. But these have nothing to do with Duke Wei, he is just an unlucky guy who is implicated.

Bian Zibai needs to take advantage of the curiosity of Wei people who like new things. On the streets of Yongcheng, the food of tofu may not even be sold. The Qin people would not believe that this kind of white jade is as clean as white and soft things are for eating. The old Qin people are so real. But in Diqiu, as long as the Wei people with two spare money in their pockets are willing to try it.

As long as it is fun, delicious, and has never eaten, Weiren is willing to try it.

Therefore, Bian Zibai said that he wanted to turn the wine shop into a restaurant, and Lu Ji raised his hand to agree. After all, it is easy to sell things in Diqiu. Anyway, the wine shop can't be done anymore, so it's better to change it into a restaurant. The only disadvantage is that it is much more tiring to be a restaurant than a restaurant. After adding a "temporary worker" Bai Gui, Lu Ji no longer had any opposition.

But when she learned that Bian Zibai decided to use the free gift for ten days to attract business, she was so scared that she was even green.

"No, absolutely not. How much money will you lose!" Lu Ji's head was shaking like a rattle, and her tone was extremely firm.

Even Bai Gui, who has always followed the leader, objected loudly: "Xiaolang, tofu is delicious, it will definitely be sold well in Diqiu, so why give it to others? It's all money! Besides, Lu Ji didn't have much savings. After purchasing a large amount of beans and wheat, there was not much left. If you give it tofu, the shop would collapse!"

"You think tofu can be sold well if you think it's delicious, right?" Bian Zibai was not angry. He seemed to agree with the two people's views, and nodded while saying that, as if he was approving of it.

Bai Gui continued: "That's right, such a good thing, if you don't raise the price, you're favor."

"I can't make money, I'm stupid!" Lu Ji even paid for her dowry. Well, she didn't prepare much dowry for herself. The main reason was that she could spend more than half of the money and couldn't save the money at all.

Bian Zibai pointed to Shimo and said to Bai Gui: "Are you tired of grinding tofu?"

"Tired, of course, I'm tired. Can you say you're tired to make money?" Bai Gui said for granted, with his hands still supporting his waist, obviously not yet on a large-scale production stage, but his body was almost unable to withstand it.

"Do you decide to keep doing this business?" Bian Zibai began to spread his fingers and talk about the pros and cons: "You see, making tofu is hard, and the money earned is hard. Besides, the land in Weiguo is very fertile, and many silted fields do not require rotation to obtain high yields. There is not much planting of beans; the most important thing is that there is no future in doing tofu business."

Anything that is linked to the future will always make people feel a kind of pressure of landslides. Choice is very important. It is said that "men are afraid of entering the wrong career, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man." People who are determined to be big businessmen will grind tofu. Although the immediate benefits are considerable, they are just small profits. People should look forward and plan deeper.

"Just talk about Bai Gui, are you planning to hide in the mill all day long and circulate around the stone mill?"

"Sister Man, what about you? Think about the near future, you will sit behind the tofu stall. No matter it is windy or rainy, you will not be able to stop all year round. You also have to face the people in the entire Diqiu City selling tofu. If you don't sell it out, you can't close the stall..."

Bai Gui was honest after all, he thought that living like this would be OK. If he worked harder, he might earn two 'Chinese cloth's in a day, or even more. However, thinking of the hard-working stone mill, he was a little slackened and whispered: "Maybe we can buy a livestock."

Bian Zibai turned his head and ignored him, and the two of them had no common language.

On the contrary, Lu Man frowned and began to worry. How could selling tofu be more tiring than selling alcohol?

She was very melancholy.

It makes people worry, and it is easier to let them give up a project that makes a less profitable profit. Bian Zibai seizes the opportunity very accurately: "Remember, we run a restaurant, and although we do it diligently, projects that do not make ten times more profitable will not be considered. Do you think that free food will suffer huge losses?"

"I'm worried, don't you think about how low the price of Shu is outside the city? What is the price we charge, but after the increase of tofu, can Shu be the price of Shu be the current price? Maybe you can say that the secret recipe is mine, and the stone mill is also designed by me, but how many people will hold grudges when eating alone? If we eat alone, I'm even worried that we will never receive a bean in Diqiu. Since this is the case, it's better to lose it and let everyone share it. We need an alliance, an interest alliance, to consolidate our reputation in Diqiu. I am an outsider, and so is Mr. Man, Bai Gui, I heard that you fled from Luoyi. We are not from Diqiu, nor even from Wei. Once people are jealous, can we still live in this city? So free is just the first step. I have even decided to teach the technology of tofu to those who Diqiu wants to learn for free before the acquisition is used up, of course, mainly restaurant operators."

"So, in this business, we have to make money and even more famous!"

"We must let everyone in Diqiu know that our restaurant is the best restaurant in Diqiu and the creator of the most exquisite food! With fame and exquisite food, the next thing we should be rich…"

Bian Zibai popularized the power of commercial promotion to two unsavvy Warring States people, but it was useless. Lu Ji said that as long as he had money, it was easy to say, and Bai Gui felt that it was a crime to not be able to make money!
