Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

Chapter 49 Mei Yin’s business experience

On the way back, Li Jinglong looked at Mei Yin and asked his doubts.

He has actually been holding back on this issue for a long time.

But he had been in Lingxi Pavilion before and had other things to do, so it was not easy for him to ask on the spot.

Now that everything was done and he left Yingtianfu City and started to return, Li Jinglong finally couldn't hold it in any longer.

Of course, another reason why he did not ask Mei Yin before at Lingxi Pavilion was to maintain the image of Cao Wushuang, Master Cao, who was elegant and omniscient in front of the Madam and others.

He, Mr. Cao, is also a person who cares about his own image.

This is especially true when it comes to romantic places such as brothels.

Upon hearing Li Jinglong's question, Zhao Jiachang and others also pricked up their ears.

They were also very confused about this.

The people in Lingxi Pavilion didn't know that, but those of them who followed Mr. Mei and participated in many soap makings knew it very well.

If Mr. Mei wanted to do it, he could easily make four to five hundred bars of soap a day.

If you want to make more soap, you just need to purchase more materials and ask for more helpers.

It's absolutely no problem to make a thousand pieces in a day.

For one dollar and ten guans, if you figure out the cost and take a commission and so on, you will earn at least eight guans.

That’s more than 8,000 yuan a day, it’s like a money grab!

No, it’s faster than robbing money!

In a short period of time, Mr. Mei will be able to obtain an astonishing amount of wealth!

However, Mr. Mei was not tempted by this overwhelming wealth, insisting that he could only make a hundred yuan a day at most.

This really makes them unable to understand.

Could it be that Mr. Mei doesn't like money?

Do you think too much money is too much?

This shouldn't be right? How many people don’t like money?

If Mr. Mei hadn't made money, how could he have worked so hard to make soap?

This matter is really puzzling!

Hearing this, Mei Yin looked at Li Jinglong and Zhao Jia Chang and the others and said with a smile: "I also want to sell more in a day, preferably for a thousand pieces.

But, you can’t do this!

If you do this, you won’t be able to make money in the future. "

After hearing Mei Yin's words, Li Jinglong and Zhao Jiachang were all in a daze.

I didn't understand the logic behind this for a while.

It can be seen from the hot sales of soap yesterday and the fiery eyes of the old bustard.

The soaps made by Mr. Mei are very popular and there is no need to worry about selling them.

You can sell as many as you have.

But why did Mr. Mei say that if he sells too much now, he will not make any money in the future?

In the midst of doubts, Li Jinglong's face showed a look of sudden understanding, as if he had figured out many of the joints at once.

When Zhao and others saw the change in Li Jinglong's expression, they couldn't help but feel filled with emotion.

People who have read books are different, their minds move very quickly.

A few of them are still confused. They didn't expect Mr. Mei's unsatisfactory nephew, but they have already thought about it.

The gap between people is really huge!

"Eldest nephew, since you have figured it out, it's up to you to explain it to Uncle Zhao and the others."

Li Jinglong smiled and waved his hand: "It's better not to steal your limelight from my second uncle.

It was the second uncle who did this, so naturally it would be better for you, the second aunt, to explain it. "

When Zhao Jiachang and others heard this, they sighed again.

Although Mr. Cao seems a bit careless and unreliable, he is still quite capable at critical moments.

Know how things are done.

After hearing what Li Jinglong said, Mei Yin did not insist on letting Li Jinglong speak.

"Before answering this question, I would like to ask why our soap is so popular and sells for such a high price."

Mei Yin looked at Zhao Jiachang and others and asked.

Several people were stunned as to why the soap could be sold at such a high price.

Why does Mr. Mei ask this?

Isn't this question obvious?

"This is Mr. Mei, the soap you made is very useful.

Use it to bathe and wash hands, it is comfortable, clean,...

"Yes! Yes, after use, it can slow down the aging of women and make them scream."

When he said this, several people couldn't help laughing, they all understood.

In other words, they really didn't expect that the soap made by Mr. Mei using the things he bought with them could actually have this effect.

“There are so many rich people in Yingtianfu City who are willing to buy.

Yes, there are also those girls in the brothel who work hard to sell..."

Zhao Jia, the leader of several people, soon started talking about several reasons why the soap was so popular. Li Jinglong couldn't help but nod, feeling that Zhao Jiachang and others had hit the mark.

Mei Yin smiled and shook his head: "These are indeed the reasons why our soap can sell so well.

But it's not the root cause. "

Are these not the root causes?

So what is the root cause?

Zhao Jiachang and others were a little confused.

Only Li Jinglong stood there with a smile on his face, as if he had already understood everything.

Mei Yin smiled and said: "The fundamental reason is that soap is scarce.

There is a saying that rare things are valuable.

Only we can make this soap ourselves.

It is precisely because of its rarity that it can be sold at a high price.

This is also the reason why I only sell 100 yuan to outsiders every day.

Because once there is an abundance of something and it is no longer scarce, the price will naturally drop.

In this way, in the future, if we make thousands of soaps a day, or even more soaps, the profit we make will not be as much as the profit we make from a hundred yuan a day now.

If this is the case, then naturally we cannot do this.

If you seize the time and make more soaps, you will definitely gain considerable wealth in a short period of time.

Doing so is no different than killing a goose to retrieve the eggs.

Once there are more soaps, if you can afford it, I can also afford it.

In this way, its scarcity ceases to exist.

Why did those rich people spend ten thousand yuan to buy our soap yesterday?

In fact, in addition to the various benefits of soap, there is another more important reason: it is expensive.

And the quantity is scarce, so it will be difficult to buy in the future.

By purchasing and using soap, you can show your status and financial resources.

Also because it is expensive, only a small group of people can afford it.

Only then can they gain a strong sense of superiority when buying and using soap.

But in the future, we sell too many soaps, so many people can afford soaps.

Then the sense of superiority created by using soap will disappear in an instant.

Once this attribute disappears, our soap will not be far from making money..."

Mei Yin is here to tell a few people about this matter.

From the beginning, Mei Yin defined soap as a luxury product.

The purpose is to make money from those rich people.

Spend a small amount of money and make more money.

Since it is a luxury product, it is natural to arrange hunger marketing and pay attention to brand value.

These are very common knowledge in later generations.

But when Mei Yin said it at this time, it shocked Zhao Jia and several others.

They really didn't expect that there were so many hidden things in the seemingly simple business!

If Mr. Mei didn't tell them, they would have followed Mr. Mei all the way and done all these things.

But I am still confused, and I don’t understand why soap makes money?

How can we keep this profitable business going for a long time?

The gap between them and Mr. Mei is really huge! !

Mr. Mei is truly a god!

Li Jinglong, who looked calm on the surface and had already seen through everything, also secretly held his hand tightly.

This matter can still be played like this?

What a surprise!

How does the second uncle know so much?

Li Jinglong always felt that he was quite knowledgeable and knew a little bit about everything.

But compared with his second uncle, he seems to be far behind.

If the second uncle hadn't told this truth, even he would have been kept in the dark.

I can't see the deep meaning behind my uncle's actions.

"Then...Second Uncle, after using this thing, can it really make people stronger?"

Li Jinglong, who had been pretending to be sophisticated just now, couldn't pretend anymore.

Looking at Mei Yin, I once again asked the doubts in my heart...
