Chapter 2323 The Firm Suffered Losses
Gu Chengning helped Yue Xi sit up.
Jun Yuexi smiled and said: "I have been worried about my brother for many years. My brother is already thirty, and in other people's families, the children are already teenagers. My father is getting older, and if he does not get married, he will not be able to inherit the position of head of the family. I used to wonder what kind of lady could catch my brother's eye."
At this point, she paused.
In fact, she had always thought that her brother liked the Queen...
She didn't dare to say this nonsense now, but she didn't expect that what her brother really liked was an actor.
No wonder I haven’t agreed to get married for so many years.
If the emperor hadn't granted the marriage, those old guys in the clan would never have agreed to the marriage.
It's better now.
All problems are solved.
Yun Dai said: "In half a month, your brother and sister-in-law will come to Beijing, and it will be time for you to have a baby by then. This is a good thing."
Jun Yuexi's face was filled with joy.
Yun Dai said: "Chengning, take her back. It's going to rain. The road is slippery, so be careful."
Gu Chengning agreed and said, "Actually, I have something else I want to tell my queen."
"What's up?"
"It's a matter of the store. I found that the sales volume of our store's goods has dropped recently."
Yun Dai really cared about it and asked: "What is the degree of decline?"
"The main office in Kyoto is fine for the time being and has not been greatly affected. However, the sales of branches in various locations have dropped by 30% in the past two months."
Thirty percent is already a big number for a large business like Yunji.
Even Yun Ji cannot bear such a loss.
Yun Dai frowned and asked: "What's going on? In the past few months...except for the flood in Guangyuan in the south, no other major events have happened. The company doesn't have many branches in Guangyuan, so it won't be so affected."
Gu Chengan said: "Your Majesty is right. It has nothing to do with the flood in Guangyuan. When my elder brother noticed it, he immediately asked me to investigate the cause. It turned out that there was a company named Guanglong that competed with our Yunji. In just six months, it has occupied 30% of our market share.”
These words were all learned from Yun Dai.
Yun Dai said, "Guanglong Company? It was opened only half a year ago. It has such strength. But who is the owner behind it?"
"I found it, it's the Xiangshui Lu family, Lu Yiping. This Lu Yiping was originally a big salt merchant. He has strong financial resources. The products in Guanglong Company are completely imitating ours, but the prices are even lower."
"I said that Yunji cannot always be the dominant player. Sooner or later there will be competitors. What are we afraid of?"
"There were several companies that tried to compete with us before, but most of them were not strong enough. Only this Guanglong company has become very prosperous in just six months. Now it has seriously affected our Yunji business." Gu Chengan frowned, "My eldest brother and I have calculated it. , If this continues, in another three months, our profits will not even be enough to support the expenses of the workshop and the workers."
Yunji has made a lot of money over the years, but most of it has been spent.
Before, it was the imperial war, and later it was to support Northern Qi and Jiuli. In the past two years, it was to deal with frequent famines in various places. Yunji's turnover is huge, but there is not much profit left on the books.
In the past few months, Yun Dai was building a Taoist temple in Yaoguang Mountain and had spent a lot of money to move the monk temple. The Taoist temple that is in progress will cost a lot of money.
This money has to be paid out of the company's profits.
