Chapter 10 The Trend of the World

"Counselor?! Then do you know my identity?" Li Xian was a little surprised that someone took the initiative to vote? Is this the so-called domineering side leakage? Just what is a strategist?

Xu Ren smiled confidently, "Since you want to take refuge, you must understand the identity of the young master. Li Xian, the young son of Doctor Yushi, right?"

"Well, I can accept your refuge. But I can't make any promises to you for the time being."

"Mr. Li's words may seem heartless, but they are sincere. And Mr. Xu also needs to explain that if he can't show his strengths by Mr. Li's side, Mr. Xu will leave on his own."

"I understand. Now I'm going to have a look at the Brilliant Star Firm. You can go to Li's Mansion and wait first. This is my badge."

"No need." Xu Ren rejected Li Xian's belt badge, "I'll just follow the young master."

"Also."

A group of people continued to walk forward slowly, but Shangguan Yong finally couldn't help but said, "My dear brother, you haven't said why the purchasing power of the well-to-do and the wealthy class is the greatest? It should be the two of the most wealthy and the most expensive." The purchasing power of the class is the greatest, right?"

Li Xian smiled without saying a word, turned to look at Xu Ren, meaning - you answer.

It's not that easy to be my counselor!

Xu Ren did not hesitate, "This class has the most people! It is roughly estimated that it accounts for almost one-twentieth of the entire population. However, the number of people who are truly wealthy and unspeakable is very small, even one-thousandth Not enough."

"So it is." Shangguan Yong and Yuan Zhao suddenly realized.

Soon the five of them came to the "Bright Star" store, but what they saw was a somewhat crowded entrance, the store was overcrowded, there was no order at all, and there were noisy bargaining.

Some of the clerks next to him were also very busy. Facing these rich and powerful guest officials, Xiao Er is a doormat.

"A store like this is a complete mess." Li Xian frowned. Immediately find the third uncle Li Youwei who is also very busy.

This Wuyang city is the capital of the emperor, and the city is full of dignitaries. Although Li Youwei is good, he can't stand it.

"Third Uncle, this shop can't go on like this, otherwise there will be trouble sooner or later.

I think it's okay. Rebuild a three-story building, place items below 50 taels on the first floor, place items below 100 taels on the second floor, and place items above 100 taels on the third floor.

Among them, a special reception staff is set up on the third floor, and it accepts customization, and can provide drawings and samples, but it is limited to providing drawings and samples, and does not accept supervision and other attached conditions.

In addition, several offices can be separated on the third floor to receive customers who purchase in large quantities, or even foreign wholesalers.

For bulk purchases, tiered prices can be given. For example, after more than 100 taels of gold, you can get 5% off, if you trade more than 500 taels of gold, you can get 10% off, and if you trade more than 1,000 taels of gold, you can get 12% off, up to 15% off.

We don’t have to worry about the prices and services of the goods sold by wholesalers, that’s the business of wholesalers; as long as we make good products and brands, we are not afraid of not having wholesalers.

In addition, half of the space on the first and second floors is set up as a teahouse, as long as there are visitors, a cup of tea will be served, and the guests should not quarrel as much as possible.

All commodities must be clearly marked, and bargaining is not accepted; however, a lottery link can be added to increase the fun.

All the waiters in the shop have to go through training and wear uniform clothing. However, the uniforms of general waiters, foremen, shopkeepers, and guards should be different, but they must have a sense of intimacy. The clothing on the first floor, second floor and third floor should also be different. This will also give employees a clear room for improvement.

Try to add female shop assistants, but it must be ensured that the female shop assistants are not harassed.

Properly increase the salaries of shop assistants to increase their sense of honor and enthusiasm for work. If we want to be a brand firm, shop assistants must have the confidence of a brand firm. "

In the next half a day, Li Xian personally trained the shop assistants, formulated relevant regulations, and re-determined the prices of the products. During the period, Xu Ren also showed a few tricks, especially the specific rules of etiquette, what to say to different people, how to address them, etc. The exquisite arrangements made Li Xian admire.

In fact, Xu Ren was not shocked by Li Xian. The business ideas mentioned by Li Xian had a greater impact on Xu Ren. It turns out that business can do this! After hearing about the new system, the clerks were so excited that they wanted to train overnight and officially start work tomorrow to raise their salaries.

The most important thing is that Li Xian promised to let the finished product out to be the store manager! Be the store manager!

It wasn't until evening that Li Xiancai bid farewell to the three cheap brothers amidst the noise of "good brothers", and took Xu Ren back to Li's residence. After returning, Li Xian first took Xu Ren to meet his father Li Yulong, and also wanted Li Yulong to help identify Xu Ren.

Li Yulong didn't want to, but was very pleasantly surprised. It turns out that this Xu Ren is not an unknown person, he is also a little famous in the circle of counselors in the Great Xia Kingdom; he is a local official, Cong Sanpin, and the number one counselor of Songzhou Governor Gao Bin .

"Sir, I'm sorry." After officially confirming his identity, Li Xian first apologized and even changed his address.

"What the young master did is correct." Xu Ren not only didn't care, but even appreciated it a little: "If the young master doesn't do this, Xu will look down on him."

"That kid just dared to ask a few questions. Why did you leave the original Gao Bin and favor me, a notorious kid?"

Xu Ren looked solemn, "Before answering this question, please allow me to ask a question, does the young master know what a counselor is?"

"Please enlighten me."

"It's a long story.

First, there are two major premises. The first one is that for countless tens of thousands of years, the celestial arts have been completely scattered among the people, and the exercises that countless famous sects tried their best to keep secret are now rotten. Naturally, there are practitioners all over the world.

The second is that resources are extremely scarce. Whether it is the materials for refining equipment or the genius treasures for cultivation, they are all extremely scarce. There are practitioners all over the world, and the result is that almost all cultivation resources are consumed.

It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, storage rings were standard equipment for foundation-building stage practitioners, but now even Yuanying stage practitioners don't necessarily have storage rings.

It is said that in the past, when the Qi refining period hit the foundation building period, there was a kind of foundation building pill to assist, but now it is difficult to find even century-old medicinal materials.

It is said that in the past, everyone in the Qi refining period had a magic weapon; but now, even the foundation building period does not necessarily have a magic weapon.

It is said that in the past, there were a lot of spirit stones and fairy stones to assist in practice, but now there are only the lowest spirit stones, and fairy stones have long become legends. And even if it is the lowest row of spirit stones, the Great Xia Kingdom can't find a few pieces.

Cultivation techniques are unprecedentedly prosperous, but resources are unprecedentedly scarce; this situation is getting worse and worse, so that the streets are full of monks in the Qi refining stage, and there are few monks in the foundation stage. As for the Jindan stage, they are still absolute masters. It is still the ancestor level.

This is the basic situation now.

After talking about the premise, let's talk about the current form.

Due to the lack of resources and the spread of skills, the fairyland based on sects and families in the past has changed. A large number of casual cultivators rise up, and all heroes rise together. The result of the coexistence of heroes is the establishment of their own power, and after an unknown number of years of development, it gradually formed the current form. This is the country, the country of the central group.

Nowadays, it is not only casual cultivators who have established a country, even some families and sects in the past have also established their own countries. Use the power of the country to gather wealth and masters.

There are ninety-nine and eighty-one known states in today's Immortal Territory. Only Yingzhou where we are located is millions of miles wide, with hundreds of large countries and countless small countries.

These, young master, do you have any doubts? "

However, Li Xian laughed: "Sir, what you said is very good and exciting. It is the first time for the boy to understand the changes and conditions of this fairyland so systematically. Please continue, sir."

Seeing Li Xian's performance like this, Xu Ren seemed to be extremely excited, "Then let me get to the point.

Now that the age of nations is established, some things are about to change.

For example, in the past, there were tens of thousands of people in one sect and one family, and many of them were hundreds of people. There was no need for any management at all. Who would dare not listen to the order given by the master.

But the age of the country is different. Take our Great Xia Kingdom as an example, five thousand miles from east to west, four thousand miles from north to south, with a population of more than 70 million, and various forces are intricate.

In the battles of the past sect era, there were only a few thousand people from several sects; all the necessary combat materials were carried in the storage ring.

However, the battles in the national era often involved hundreds of thousands of troops. The biggest battle in the last millennium, the battle between Wei State and Zhao State, the two sides mobilized a total of more than 10 million troops, more than 20 million conscripts, 8 million horses, and more than 30,000 craftsmen. The battlefield spread over a radius of 500 miles.

There are more than 20 million weapons and armors, more than 3 million bundles of arrows, more than 37 million stones of food and grass, 870 million taels of silver in gold, silver and jewelry, and 5 million pieces of cloth. horses, 800,000 carts of medicinal herbs.

Young Master, may I ask if such a form can be managed by only a hundred or ten people from the sect? "

The next chapter is tonight.
