Chapter 2022 Pei Mingli arrives.
Wang Hongfu's face was gloomy at the moment. Before leaving, Prince Ji entrusted all matters to him, which was a sign of trust in him.
The past two years have been unlucky and the sin of negligence cannot be made up for.
Now that he finally had the chance to make a contribution, it turned out to be like this. Wang Hongfu found it hard to accept.
"To the shopkeeper, the sales outlets in the East and West Cities have been established, and the construction in the industrial park is in progress. It is estimated that it will be completed in ten days or half a month.
The main reason why sales did not increase was that those people outside imitated us and snatched away a lot of our sales quota.
How about you talk to His Royal Highness Prince Ji and ask His Royal Highness Prince Ji how we should deal with it?"
When Manager Zhou saw Wang Hongfu’s gloomy face, he hurried forward to explain.
They had no way to deal with this situation. Although the number of sales outlets increased, a lot of customers were also taken away.
Wang Hongfu frowned and thought for a moment before shaking his head:
"No, His Royal Highness Prince Ji has already instructed us before he left that if anyone imitates us, we must not act rashly.
Just keep an eye on it, and make all plans after the prince comes back.
You can imagine other methods and means of publicity. You have learned a lot over the years. Even if it is fair competition, we should not be worse than them.
We can’t disrupt the prince’s plan, otherwise none of us can afford it.”
King Ji had his reasons for asking him not to worry about it. With King Ji's wisdom, the fact that sales had been snatched away should have been within King Ji's control.
Since King Ji said not to move, they could only think of other ways.
Wang Hongfu's words made the remaining shopkeepers fall into deep thought. Over the years, they had indeed learned a lot from King Ji.
The word "propaganda" came from King Ji's mouth.
After looking for a long time, several people couldn't come up with any good countermeasures, and Wang Hongfu also had a worried look on his face.
"Okay, let's put this matter aside for now and open all the sales outlets first. The prince said to open 30 sales outlets in the industrial park, but I don't think that's enough.
We need to open 50 stores, and they need to be large. We need to have more than 30 salespeople. This is a gathering place for merchants, so there will definitely be a lot of buyers."
Unable to figure it out, Wang Hongfu simply gave up thinking about it and completed the task assigned by King Ji first.
"Yes, I will handle it as soon as possible." Shopkeeper Zhou immediately accepted the order.
Afterwards, Wang Hongfu inquired about the situation of other industries. Although the industries had been gradually handed over to Pei Mingli, he still had the position of chief manager and the right to supervise.
"Manager Wang, General Pei wants to see you."
Just then, the door was pushed open and a waiter came in to report.
"Please come in." Wang Hongfu stood up. After all, Pei Mingli was an official, so he had to be polite when he was outside.
Soon Pei Mingli walked in.
"Meet Shopkeeper Wang."
Pei Mingli was the first to salute.
"How dare I? Greetings to General Pei." Wang Hongfu quickly returned the greeting.
"Manager Wang, is there something wrong? How about I come back later?" Pei Mingli said tactfully when he saw other managers in the room.
"What are you talking about, General Pei? You are not an outsider. Come, General Pei, please take a seat."
Wang Hongfu smiled and declined, then asked the waiter to serve tea to Pei Mingli.
"Manager Wang, if you have anything to say, please speak first. I, Pei, will be waiting for you." Pei Mingli said after sitting down.
"It doesn't matter. We have almost finished talking about the matter. I wonder what General Pei is here for?" Wang Hongfu smiled and shook his head.
Although he is a close confidant of Prince Ji and the chief treasurer of Prince Ji's mansion, Pei Mingli is different. He was specially invited by Prince Ji.
Wang Hongfu naturally knew the legend of Pei Mingli.
There are two legends in Chang'an City. The first one is about Wang Hongfu. It is said that Wang Hongfu, the chief treasurer of Prince Ji's mansion, was the first person to follow Prince Ji because of his insight.
At that time, Prince Ji was just a nine-year-old child, but Wang Hongfu saw that Prince Ji would be extraordinary in the future. In order to be able to follow Prince Ji, Wang Hongfu donated the property under his name to Prince Ji, which is now the Boutique Pavilion.
Some people also said that Wang Hongfu was advised by a passing master who said that in the future he would help the God of Wealth to become the richest man in the world. It sounded so magical.
However, it is true that all businessmen envy Wang Hongfu. Although some big businessmen earn more than Wang Hongfu, they are not as powerful as Wang Hongfu.
Which businessman can chat and laugh with the powerful and wealthy? Wang Hongfu can do it.
The second legend is about Pei Mingli, who was good at business and started from scratch by collecting waste. He was eventually appreciated by His Majesty and became an official in the court.
He is truly a model in the business world. He did not rely on others for support, but worked hard to achieve his success.
Both of them are legendary figures in the business community of Chang'an City, and Pei Mingli also holds an official position, so Wang Hongfu does not dare to be arrogant in front of Pei Mingli.
Or it can be said that the two of them are heroes who recognize and respect heroes, and they are quite like Murong in the south and Qiao Feng in the north, and they are connected with each other.
The same is true for Pei Mingli. He dare not underestimate the businessman Wang Hongfu. Wang Hongfu's reputation in the business world is unmatched, and he is also a close confidant of King Ji.
"Manager Wang, the football field is almost finished. It is estimated that it will be completed in ten days. Pei came here to ask Manager Wang to come and take a look.
If there is anything else that needs to be changed, Pei will immediately instruct the craftsmen to make the changes. "
"Oh? The football field is almost completed?" Wang Hongfu smiled when he heard this. He finally heard good news.
"That's right." Pei Mingli nodded.
"General Pei, I won't go to see it. As long as General Pei builds it according to the drawings, there will be no problem."
Wang Hongfu smiled and shook his head. He didn't know how to build it either. If he was in charge, he would just follow the drawings.
"Manager Wang, Pei doesn't know how to build. I still need Manager Wang's help with the inspection. His Royal Highness Prince Ji specifically told me before he left that the football field is very important.
In particular, the materials cannot be inferior in quality, but Pei does not understand the materials.
I hope Shopkeeper Wang can go over and take a look."
Pei Mingli did not beat around the bush and did not care at all that he did not understand anything. Prince Ji said that if he did not understand anything, he could ask Wang Hongfu.
"Oh~~~ So that's how it is. To be honest with you, I don't understand it either. But it doesn't matter. Tomorrow I will find a few people from the construction team of the Academy of Sciences to go with me.
They should be very familiar with this. They were all bought from the Ministry of Industry by His Royal Highness Prince Ji at a high price."
At the end, Wang Hongfu lowered his voice and spoke to Pei Mingli.
"Buy it?" Pei Mingli was a little surprised. This was indeed King Ji's style, people could be bought and sold.
But when he thought that he was exchanged for the tea table by Prince Ji, he felt relieved.
Who doesn’t have values?
"Let's not talk about this anymore. This is a matter between the prince and the higher-ups. We should not make irresponsible comments. Let's talk about the football field first."
Seeing Pei Mingli wanted to ask something, Wang Hongfu interrupted him. This involved His Majesty and the Crown Prince, and making irresponsible comments was disrespectful and punishable by death.
"What Shopkeeper Wang said is right. Thank you for your help, Shopkeeper Wang. If that's the case, I will come here to see Shopkeeper Wang again tomorrow and we will go together."
After Pei Mingli finished speaking, he stood up, bowed and prepared to leave.
(I didn’t have any other intentions in yesterday’s survey. I just wanted to see if there were any female readers. You guys have such improper thoughts. I wrote such positive articles, but they still haven’t influenced you.
Form is emptiness and emptiness is form.)
