Chapter 352 Something Big Has Happened!
Imperial capital.
Above the Vermillion Bird Avenue.
The entire imperial capital has four great avenues, namely Vermillion Bird, Xuanwu, Qinglong and White Tiger, which are crisscrossed and run through the entire imperial capital.
Among them, Zhuque Avenue is the most prosperous street.
This Suzaku Avenue is more than 500 meters wide and can accommodate nearly 300 carriages side by side. On both sides are rows of towering buildings. These buildings are elegant in style and have a strong dynasty atmosphere.
The front row has five floors, and the higher the floor, the higher the floor.
There are stores with different decorations in each building, with people coming and going, thriving.
This Suzaku Avenue is the main road of the imperial capital.
Whenever there is a grand festival, the royal guard of honor will march through the entire Suzaku Avenue to demonstrate the majesty of the royal family.
The most prosperous central location.
The Nangong Dan Pharmacy Store of the Nangong family stands opposite the Dan Pharmacy Store of the Zhenbao Pavilion. On weekdays, the two families fight openly and secretly, but the purchase price of the Nangong family's medicinal materials is extremely low, and the elixir sold is half a percent lower than that of the Zhenbao Pavilion.
So much so that the Zhenbao Pavilion Pill Shop has been repeatedly suppressed, but has no choice but to do anything about it.
after all.
The Nangong family and the Beitang family are in the same spirit.
The Beitang family monopolized the medicinal materials market of the entire Dagan Dynasty. Apart from them, no other company in the huge Dagan Dynasty could buy any medicinal materials from the Medicine King Valley, even if it was Zhenbao Pavilion.
The high cost makes Zhenbao Pavilion unable to fight a price war with the Nangong family at all.
You must know...
Even though the price is half a percent lower than that of the same type of elixir in Zhenbao Pavilion, the profit of the Nangong family is still far higher than that of Zhenbao Pavilion.
This day.
Nangong Shou, the shopkeeper of the Zhuque Avenue store of Nangong Elixir Shop, was drinking small tea, crossing his legs, and the old god was humming a small song, glanced at the elixir shop opposite Zhenbao Pavilion, and said proudly: "Zhenbao Pavilion? In front of the helpless tribute family, you have to be scattered by the dragon, and you have to be lying by the tiger."
"Um?"
Nangong Shou suddenly narrowed his eyes and saw someone posting a notice in front of the Zhenbao Pavilion Pill Shop.
It attracted a lot of people to come forward soon.
Nangong Shou raised his eyebrows and said to a servant behind him: "Go and see, what the hell is doing in Zhenbao Pavilion?"
"Okay, the shopkeeper!"
The servant hurriedly left, and after a moment, the servant ran back with a look of eagerness and said, "Shopkeeper, the big thing is wrong. A notice was posted on the Zhenbao Pavilion, and all the pills were sold at 10% off. Now many people are going to them!"
"90% off?"
Nangong Shou was stunned and said indifferently, "What are you going to worry about? They can't hold on for long, so don't pay attention!"
The first day.
the next day.
Day 3...
Four days have passed in a blink of an eye. Nangong Shou looked at several servants who were dozing off on the counter, slapped the table with a slap, and said angrily: "What are you doing? What kind of slutty looks like if a guest comes in and sees it?"
"The shopkeeper has no customers at all!"
"Yes, there were a few people two days ago, and there was no one there until yesterday afternoon!"
"What did you say? There is no one?"
Nangong Shou's face froze, and then he looked at the hall, with no figure except those servants.
In the past.
There are so many places here, especially when the door is opened every day, the guests are even more crowded. Hearing the servant's words, there is not a single customer since yesterday afternoon. What's going on?
Nangong Shou said in a deep voice: "It must be because you have a bad attitude and offended the guests!"
"Shopkeeper, it really has nothing to do with us! All of this is done by Zhenbao Pavilion opposite..."
"In fact, since three days ago, our guests have been decreasing. By yesterday afternoon, there was not a single guest. They all ran to the Zhenbao Pavilion opposite!"
Everyone said.
"Treasure Pavilion?"
Nangong Shou frowned and said, "Impossible. It's not possible that Zhenbao Pavilion has been opposite us for a day or two. Our business has always been better than them. How could the customers be snatched away by them?"
"Shopkeeper, what you said is the past. Now the elixirs in Zhenbao Pavilion Pill Shop are sold at 10% off, which is half a discount than us."
"Now everyone is going there!"
Nangong Shou suddenly remembered that four days ago, Zhenbao Pavilion posted a notice of 10% off. He frowned and said, "What do you mean that for the past four days, Zhenbao Pavilion has been using 10% off elixirs? How is this possible? Where did so many elixirs come from in Zhenbao Pavilion?"
He walked straight to the gate and looked across from the Suzaku Avenue.
There was a long queue outside the elixir shop in Zhenbao Pavilion.
Look at them again...
The bird was too lazy to wait in front of the door.
"Shopkeeper, what should we do? Should we report to the family?" asked a servant.
Nangong Shou glared at him coldly and sneered: "You have to report this little thing to the family? Do you want the head of the family to think I am incompetent?" After a pause, Nangong Shou said in a deep voice, "Isn't it just a price reduction? If he dares to give 10% off, we will get 10% off. Anyway, even if we sell 10% off, our profit will be very considerable!"
"yes!"
The servant immediately went to prepare the notice.
Nangong Shou glanced at the long queue opposite and sneered: "Work a price war with my Nangong family? You are really thinking too much!"
However……
Day 5.
When Nangong Shou came to the elixir shop, he found that there was still no customer here, and he couldn't help but be furious: "What's the situation? I've got 15% off, but I can't even rob the Zhenbao Pavilion?"
A servant cried and said, "The opposite side is 20% off!"
"20% off?"
Nangong Shou's face suddenly changed, and a fierce look appeared in his eyes, "It seems that they are really determined to fight with us to the end. Isn't it just a price reduction? Isn't my Nangong family ever afraid of anyone? Post a notice, let's pay 75... No, just get 60% off. I don't believe that he dares to compete with us in Zhenbao Pavilion!"
Even at a 60% discount, their profits are still extremely objective.
But the purchase price of the medicinal materials in Zhenbao Pavilion is much more expensive than theirs, and the 60% discount is almost the cost price.
Nangong Shou said confidently: "Unless Zhenbao Pavilion is really determined, even if it is a loss, he will fight with us, otherwise he will never dare to continue to lower the price."
"The wisdom of the shopkeeper!"
"Tsk tsk, 60% off, I'm afraid Zhenbao Pavilion will be scared and peed..."
The servants said one after another.
only……
On the sixth day, they still had no guests.
On the other hand, the elixir shop in Zhenbao Pavilion is full of people and a long queue at the door.
The servant gasped, his face pale: "Shopkeeper, Zhenbao Pavilion directly sells all the pills for 50% off..."
Plop!
Nangong Shou widened his eyes, the fan in his hand fell to the ground, and the teacup was empty, only the rocking chair was creaking and shaking. Nangong Shou's forehead was sweating profusely, and he swallowed a mouthful of water, feeling cold all over: "What's wrong, something big is going to happen."
He quickly looked at the servants: "You guys stare at the opposite side, I'll go back!"
Nangong Shou ran towards the Nangong family in a hurry.
However……
When he came to the gate of the Nangong family, he found that the heads of more than 100 elixir shops in the imperial capital were gathered here, including some elixir shop owners from cities near the imperial capital.
Looking at the deep worry on everyone's faces, Nangong Shou's face turned pale: "I'm afraid something really happened!"
