Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 57 Negotiation
"As long as Mr. Xiao Lang supplies secret materials in a timely manner, and does not suspend or suppress the goods for no reason, I can accept this condition."

"That's right, as long as our business can operate normally, there is nothing wrong with buying secret materials from you."

"........."

They are all businessmen, and no one is more stupid than the other. Even if they agree to Qin Tian's conditions, they will definitely seek the safest state for their own interests.

For this, Qin Tian never thought of making things difficult for them.

In business, honesty is the foundation. Since he has sold secret materials to them, he will definitely supply them on time. He still has a bottom line for this.

"Since you all agree, it's easy to discuss this matter. Naturally, what you said can be guaranteed to be completed, but I still have a few conditions here. I just want you to listen to it."

The shopkeepers didn't expect Qin Tian to have so many problems, but they have already mentioned this, and there is absolutely no reason to refuse, so they let Qin Tian continue to talk.

"I have some things to explain to you. Although the East and West cities are very large, they don't need too many inns for breakfast business. There can be two in the West City, and only one in the East City, which is Universal House, so I want to Those who do breakfast business in Dongshi don’t need to talk to me anymore.”

When these words came out, Chen Ba and the others frowned slightly. They thought that they would be able to buy the secret ingredients for breakfast immediately, and suppressed Sihaiju. They never thought that Qin Tian would say these words.

Obviously, this situation is to protect Sihaiju.

The other shopkeepers looked towards Chen Ba, but Chen Ba was still able to keep calm, just hinting that they should not panic.

"Of course, as long as you're not in the east and west cities, I can sell you the secrets if you go to any other place to do breakfast business. In the east and west cities, the two inns in the west city need to be sold through bidding. It was decided that whoever bids the highest price can start the breakfast business in West Market, and if you don’t want to bid, then I’m sorry, we can’t cooperate.”

The shopkeepers who came here were all from the east and west cities, and when they heard this, their expressions immediately turned ugly, but the east and west cities are the most prosperous in Chang'an City, and no one would give up such a good deal.

So after Qin Tian finished speaking, someone stood up immediately: "Mr. Qin Xiaolang, I will offer a hundred guan to buy a seat in Xishi."

The person who stood up was not surprising, but he was the proprietor of a well-known inn in the West Market. But as soon as he finished speaking, someone else stood up immediately: "I will pay two hundred yuan for a seat."

"I'll buy a spot for three hundred coins."

Three hundred guan is not a small amount, just to buy a seat, it is really not worth it, and if you are only doing breakfast business, you can do it in other places as well. gave up.

Is it worth giving up such a big market for breakfast?
Everyone looked at each other, at this moment, someone shouted again: "Four hundred coins!"

Naturally, it is not worthwhile to abandon the markets in the eastern and western cities. The markets in the eastern and western cities are too large. With breakfast to attract people, they can make a lot of money by doing some side jobs.

"Five hundred coins!"

When someone called out five hundred guan, everyone was stunned for a moment and took a breath for a moment. Five hundred guan was a bit beyond their ability to bear.

No one raised the price anymore, but at this time, a shopkeeper suddenly pointed at the person who was calling for five hundred guan, "Isn't this shopkeeper Chen? You are from the East City, why do you want to grab our quota in the West Market?"

After being reminded like this, the storekeepers in the West Market immediately condemned Chen Balai, but Chen Ba smiled: "I'm sorry, I'm going to move the inn to the West Market."

Since breakfast can no longer be sold in the East Market, he can only go to the West Market. The East and West Markets are only one street away. As long as he lowers the price, he can still pull down the business of Cosmopolitan House.

And there is nothing wrong with what Chen Ba said.

Everyone said he couldn't do it, so they could only sigh secretly. In the end, another shopkeeper in West Market was willing to pay [-] guan, so that the two of them got the quota of selling breakfast in West Market.

"Since the two of you bought this place with money, I will naturally be responsible for you. I will not let anyone who has cooperated with me enter the West Market to sell breakfast. If someone does not abide by this rule, then I will punish him. Out of stock, of course, this is just one of the means, I also need all the people who cooperate to pay a deposit of fifty pennies, if you do not violate the contract and sell breakfast in your respective places, after three years, I will return the deposit to you You guys, if someone breaks the contract, then I will confiscate the deposit, and this is done to protect everyone's mutual interests, I wonder if you agree or not?"

What Qin Tian said is a kind of protection policy for each inn, so everyone has no opinion.

I thought that the two sides should have reached an agreement at this time, but who knows that Qin Tian is not in a hurry, and said: "There is one more thing that I didn't say, in order to avoid someone expanding the shop, one shop is bigger than the other four or five inns. , so at the beginning I only provide secret materials for three days, and the supply is limited. After three days, everyone behaves well, and I will gradually increase the second time. The upper limit is one month. Do you agree with this?"

This request was not a big problem for other innkeepers, but it was troublesome to buy secret materials every few days, but they all agreed, only Chen Ba's face tightened slightly.

He originally wanted to buy a lot of secret materials at one time, expand the inn, and steal all the business from Sihaiju, but now Qin Tian has limited the size of the inn and controlled the supply of secret materials, so he even There are many customers, but there is no secret information, what kind of breakfast does he sell?

Chen Ba suddenly felt that what he had done before was useless.

However, he still agreed, because even if he couldn't expand the scale, with these breakfasts, he could at least hope to compete with Universal House, and this thing did make money, so he wasn't losing money.

After this was agreed, everyone started to sign the contract. Wait, they brought half of the money first, and after they learned how to make these breakfasts, they brought the remaining half. At that time, they could also Spend money on secrets.

There are two kinds of dense ingredients, one is to wake up noodles, Qin Tian uses yeast, but yeast is too easy to grow, so he later invented alkaline noodles, this alkaline noodles require a certain level of technology, even if they take When it comes to this thing, it cannot be copied.

There is another kind, which is the secret ingredient of Hu spicy soup. In this way, the secret ingredients of alkaline noodles and Hu spicy soup allow him to completely control these inns in his own hands.

If they want to do breakfast business, they have to buy secret ingredients from them, and secret ingredients are not cheap.

Qin Tian can make a lot of money by constantly selling secret materials.
