Compared with Zhang Shun, who rolls his wheelchair and spends all day busy in the Dongmen Market, Zhang Yan seems to be "idle" at home.
I don’t know what I’m doing except staying at home behind closed doors all day long, or I go out and see no one all day long. He is so idle that he can compete with those green men on the street.
Wang Lanping talked about it several times, but it was limited to words. How could she not know that the Zhang family's current prosperous changes were brought about by his second son? Most of the time, she was just curious about what Erzi did during the day.
What else can you do? When Zhang Yan was at home, he was either refining elixirs or practicing meditation. When I went out, I was familiar with all aspects of Langyuan City, and at the same time, I was looking for a suitable place to place my paper talismans to expand my "eyesight." Especially around the Wu Mansion, he felt that closer attention was needed.
Fortunately, his family has enough trust in Zhang Yan, and coupled with his tall image as a "master", the Zhang family can fully accept even a very weird-looking "amulet" and wear it honestly.
The amulet carved from peach wood and blessed with evil-repelling charms is no longer an ordinary thing. Although it cannot suppress evil things, it can still avoid most evil things. And if he is in the city, Zhang Yan can also sense it, so that evil things will not have the opportunity to target his family.
"Don't run around today. Go to the store to help keep an eye on things. I heard Yuanyuan said that they are going to start selling those kits today. I haven't counted them yet. If you show up, they can rest assured." Wang Lanping told Zhang Yan. Here comes porridge and pancakes. Although it was still early in the morning, she and her second son Zhang Yan were the only ones at home. The eldest son Zhang Shun and her daughter Zhang Huiyuan went to the store before dawn to prepare things. Today, they said there were new things going to the store, so they had to prepare them early.
Zhang Yan smiled and nodded repeatedly. In the past few days since he returned home, he had figured out Wang Lanping's temperament. She is an old woman who likes to chatter and has a kind heart. Especially for the three children at home, she would always be subconsciously worried. Although she could not help, she was still worried about the children's wanderings outside.
"Okay, Mom, I'll go over after dinner. Originally, I asked my little sister to prepare this matter in advance. I also went to the store yesterday to check it out. They are well prepared and there won't be any trouble."
"That being said, it would be better for you to go there before you run away without a trace again." Wang Lanping pushed the pickles on the small plate towards Zhang Yan, signaling him to eat more. After eating, we set off quickly.
Zhang Yan was a very stable person. He never felt dissatisfied with Wang Lanping's nagging. Instead, he felt that the reason why the Zhang family never collapsed in the most difficult times was that Wang Lanping's nagging method played a very important role. It has a great effect, because you can feel the love from your family all the time, and you will not feel lonely and helpless in the face of difficulties.
The Dongmen Market opened at Mao o'clock. When Zhang Yan went out, it was half past Mao o'clock and the sky was only getting bright.
Most of the people in the Huangtian Territory get up very early. After all, the average family does not have much entertainment at night, and rarely does anything except sleeping. So even if I get up early, everyone is still very energetic.
As soon as I entered the square gate, the lively atmosphere inside hit my face. Whether it's the shouts or the neighing of animals pulling carts, they all tell everyone how busy this place is and how time is running out.
Compared with the main street, the noise on the back street of Dongmen Market is much quieter. Zhang Yan followed the road and quickly arrived at the store. It was already brightly lit and several people were busy.
"Eh? Zhang Er is here? Come and see, is there any problem with this?" Zhang Shun, who was in the middle of the wheelchair, his eyes lit up, and he quickly moved to Zhang Yan, waved his hand, and asked Zhang Yan to add new ones to the store. Make some comments about the arrangement.
"Brother, I said it was no problem when I came here yesterday." Zhang Yan finished speaking with a smile and looked around. The kits were already on display. There are three styles in total, and the prices are also three different.
"Zhang Er, I always feel that the price of these kits will be too high?"
"Why is it higher? Aren't the prices of ordinary cotton ones low enough? It's only less than 30% higher than our cost. People who can afford a wheelchair won't care about this little money."
"I'm talking about the other two types, brocade and embroidered satin. Is it too expensive? And look, is the word "Zhang Ji" on it too centered? Is there any problem?"
"Brother, how many times have you asked me this? I told you yesterday, there will be no problem. The two characters "Zhang Ji" are our brand name, and only by embroidering the brand name on it can we show that it is our time-honored brand. It represents "the best." With these three words, and taking into account the embroidery work, it is completely reasonable to sell it more expensively.
Haha, brother, this is what my master taught me. It’s called “brand premium”. You don’t need to understand the truth, just apply it. You can’t go wrong. "
The so-called kit is actually a soft cushion added to the wheelchair, including the armrests, seats and backrests. Three models, three prices.
The so-called brand premium has appeared for the first time in Huangtian Domain, so it is normal for Zhang Shun to feel uneasy. If Zhang Yan hadn't used the guise of "Master" to comfort him, this idea would definitely not have passed Zhang Shun's test.
When the sky got brighter, customers began to come in one after another at Zhang's Wheelchair Shop. The clerk in the store also started busy making introductions. Regardless of whether the other person's outfit is simple or luxurious, everyone is treated equally. Coupled with the novel furnishings and experiential purchasing process in the store, it is rare for anyone to leave quickly after entering. And as long as you stay, you have a high probability of paying for it. After all, people who visit here only come here if they have needs. Most of the people watching the excitement are too embarrassed to come in and watch from outside the store.
And soon, the first wheelchair kit was naturally sold.
Not the cheapest ordinary cotton one, but the most expensive embroidered satin one. And until noon, the number of kits sold was seven, of which only two were cheap cotton models.
"This..." Zhang Shun was confused. He even felt as if the profit from selling the kit was higher than the wheelchair itself.
Zhang Yan did not explain to Zhang Shun more, but smiled and let the other party figure it out for himself. After all, he can't always help here. In the future, it will be up to the elder brother to manage it himself. In addition, in the final analysis, Zhang Yan was just copying the models on Earth. He didn't understand many of the principles at all. It would be better not to talk about them randomly, so as not to distort the big brother's thinking.
It was noon, Zhang Yan was ready to go back, while Zhang Shun and Zhang Huiyuan wanted to stay in the store.
But just as Zhang Yan was about to go out, he saw several familiar people walking in.
"Hey, Brother Zhang is here in person? Long time no see, business is booming here!"
"Huh? Xiao Chongwen, what are you doing here?" Zhang Yan glanced at Xiao Chongwen and the others with a half-smile on his face, and then his eyes passed over them and fell on a young man in a brocade robe in the middle.
