"Drive, drive, drive!"
Amidst the hurried shouts from the driver, the horse raised its hooves and pulled the carriage at a gallop in the direction of the Hongyun Dan Pavilion.
Zhang Xiaozhu chatted with the middle-aged man in the carriage, and after some questioning he found out the reason.
The new store of Hongyun Dange opened and introduced some wonderful ways to attract customers.
Anyone can apply for a silver card at the Lucky Dan Pavilion and become a guest of the Lucky Dan Pavilion.
When customers use this card to purchase elixirs in the Dan Pavilion, they will not only get some discounts, but also receive some small gifts every time they visit.
Newcomers who enter the store to apply for a silver card can receive five Broken Star Pills for free.
As for customers who have already applied for a silver card, if they can invite a person with the lowest cultivation level in the sea realm to come to the store to apply for the card, they will also be rewarded with five broken star pills, or they will be given a special price to purchase pills at the designated counter. .
In addition, if two guests go to the store together to purchase elixirs, they will receive corresponding discounts.
The more people there are, the higher the discount, up to 40% off.
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaozu asked doubtfully: "Brother Zhao, this Lucky Pill Pavilion gives out free gifts and discounts, so are they still making money?"
The middle-aged man’s name is Zhao Ran.
Zhao Ran shook his head and replied: "I'm afraid I'm going to lose money. There are too many cultivators in the city. Someone did a rough calculation. Since the opening of the Hongyun Dan Pavilion, more than 40,000 Broken Star Pills have been given away. , if you include other miscellaneous pills, at least 100,000 pills will be given away for free."
"Hey!" Zhang Xiaozu couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard these two numbers: "The financial resources of this Hongyun Dan Pavilion are quite strong."
"That's right." Zhao Ran nodded in agreement, "Boss Qian said that the family is not short of money. The purpose of running the Dan Pavilion is not to make money, but to make friends from all over the world. If you lose money, just lose it, as long as your friends are happy. .”
"This boss is really generous." Zhang Xiaozu praised.
"Bold is bold, but I'm afraid that his Dan Pavilion won't last long." Zhao Ran sighed and said with a worried look: "The Qingyun List has appeared. People heard that Zhang Dayong was in the Taoist sect, and they all gathered in Wuliang City. Until now, There are still one or two hundred cultivators coming over every day, which means that the Hongyun Dan Pavilion must send out at least five hundred Star-Shattering Pills a day. Even if there is tens of thousands of wealth, it cannot afford such extravagant squandering. Several other alchemy pavilions are waiting to see the show, to see when the Lucky Alchemy Pavilion will be closed."
Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't help but become worried when he heard Zhao Ran's worries. However, thinking that since Qian Ruoyun dared to do this, he must have his purpose and support, he let go of his worries.
.
Ye Mingyue smiled and said: "The eyes of the entire Wuliang City cultivators are focused on the Fortune Pill Pavilion. I guess the threshold of the Fortune Pill Pavilion must be trampled several times a day, right?"
"Haha, it's exactly what Madam said." Zhao Ran said with a grin, "On the first day that the Hongyun Dan Pavilion opened, not only was the threshold trampled to pieces, but even the door was squeezed through, and the same was true on the second day. , so Boss Qian had no choice but to dismantle the threshold and door, and he still hasn’t put them back together.”
Ye Mingyue turned to Zhang Xiaozhu and asked, "What do you think you are most afraid of when opening a business?"
"What I'm most afraid of--" Zhang Xiaopou thought for a while and replied, "Rogues blocking the door."
Ye Mingyue shook his head and said: "The scoundrels who block the door will always have a way to blow them away, either by asking for a police officer or by paying a master to keep the house in check."
"I know." Zhao Ran smiled, "I am most afraid of losing money."
Ye Mingyue nodded and said: "Doing business is about seeking money. Naturally, you are afraid of losing money. What else can you do besides losing money?"
"Afraid—afraid—" Zhang Xiaozu couldn't remember for a moment.
"The biggest fear is that there will be no customers." Ye Mingyue said, "Think about it, if you open a restaurant and not a single customer comes in all day long, and you finally wait for one, but in the end he still asks for directions, your restaurant will still be open. Can it continue to operate?"
"That's right." Zhang Xiaozu nodded.
"On the contrary, if a thousand people come into your restaurant a day, there will always be a few hungry people who sit down to eat. It doesn't matter if you give them a bowl of tea for the remaining ones who ask for directions.
? For those guests who sit down to eat, why not give them one or two side dishes or one or two glasses of wine for free? You may earn less per meal, but more and more people will be willing to sit down and eat, so small profits but quick turnover are good. "
"I understand." Zhang Xiaozu nodded.
The profits of elixirs are far greater than those of small restaurants. Qian Ruoyun is giving up most of the profits to attract customers, or simply giving up the low-end elixir market and giving them away as gifts. However, as long as he sells one High-grade elixirs can be earned back.
Hundreds or even thousands of people come into the store a day, and there are always people who come to buy something.
Zhao Ran shook his head and said, "Madam, what you said is indeed reasonable, but Hongyun Dan Pavilion gave us too many free things. Anyway, I don't think they make money."
"U--!"
The carriage stopped at the intersection of Wuliang City's main road.
"arrive."
Zhao Ran said and got off the carriage first.
Zhang Xiaozu and Ye Mingyue got off the carriage and saw the Fortune Pill Pavilion at a glance, because the Fortune Pill
The open space in front of the pavilion was lined with carriages, and the cultivators coming in and out of the door seemed to be attending a large gathering.
Of course, the plaque on the door of the Hongyun Dan Pavilion is also impressive, over a foot long, and the four gilt characters with flying dragons and phoenixes can be clearly seen from half a mile apart.
The facade is also very large, with a width of more than twenty feet from east to west.
The building is six stories high and very impressive.
Zhang Xiaozu's subtle state of mind extended further and he found that the six floors above and below were actually the shops of Hongyun Dan Pavilion. Each counter was filled with a dazzling array of goods. Except for the tellers on the sixth floor who were relatively leisurely, the tellers on the five floors below were all very busy. sweating a lot.
Because there are too many guests.
There were nearly five hundred people crowded on the first floor alone. It was so crowded that walking was difficult.
Zhang Xiaozhu looked at such a large-scale Hongyun Dan Pavilion and couldn't help but be a little stunned. He knew that Qian Ruoyun was capable, but he never imagined that Qian Ruoyun was not there. The Dan Pavilion was expanded to this size within a month.
In his imagination, Hongyun Dan Pavilion should be a small shop with two or three counters. Qian Ruoyun was busy working alone and was so tight that he was reluctant to hire a teller.
Therefore, the Lucky Pill Pavilion in front of him had a great visual impact on him.
Ye Mingyue also looked surprised.
"Brother Zhang, madam, go this way."
Zhao Ran paid the fare, then walked in front of Zhang Xiaozu and led the way.
He led Zhang Xiaozu and Zhang Xiaozu to the first floor, walked to a counter in the corner, and lined up in a long line. There were more than 20 people in front of them, all coming to apply for silver cards.
Zhang Xiaozu used his subtle mind to observe the counters on the first floor and found that the products sold were all low-grade elixirs.
Each elixir has a huge discount.
Zhang Xiaozu calculated that the discounted prices of many elixirs meant that even if he used the power of aura to increase production and refine them, he would still lose money.
After observing the first floor, he looked towards the second floor.
I found that the elixirs on the second floor were slightly more advanced and their quality had also improved a lot.
The discounted price can barely cover the cost.
Then on the third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors, the levels of elixirs are higher and higher. Although there are discounts, the discounts are obviously much smaller, and the profits are higher and higher.
With Ye Mingyue's previous analogy, Zhang Xiaozhu knew that the elixirs on the first and second floors were free tea, side dishes and wine in the restaurant. They were just to attract customers. Only when there are customers, there will be business.
However, Zhang Xiaozu searched the upper and lower six floors with his subtle mind but could not find Qian Ruoyun.
Qian Ruoyun was currently being scolded in the alchemy room behind the Alchemy Pavilion.
