Chapter 202 Commercial Blueprint
“Do you have any problem in business recently?” w.a.n.g Feng asked.
“You can set your mind at rest, although I spent millions of yuan to renovate the mall some time ago, the losses were balanced by the gains in one month. I roughly calculated that the mall has made a profit of over 100 million this month.”
“Is that true?” w.a.n.g Feng was surprised to hear what he said. He thought that it would be good for Xu Haijiang to make a profit of 50 million yuan a year. After all, it was not a profiteering industry, so the turnover was naturally inferior to that of a jewelry store.
“Not enough, I guess we can make a profit of more than two billion yuan a year when our mall is famous.” Xu Haijiang said confidently.
“f.u.c.k. You don"t sell drugs in the mall, do you?” w.a.n.g Feng was so shocked that he could not help but say an F-word.
“How could I possibly do that illegal thing?” Xu Haijiang rolled his eyes and said, “After repairing, we sell high-end products and call off the low-end goods. It has already become an opulent den of mortal delights. Now, the people who can shop at our mall are estimated to be millionaires. If they aren"t rich enough, they dare not to come.”
It had become an irreversible fact that people loved to show off and compare with each other. Moreover, w.a.n.g Feng had known how many wealthy people were in Zhu Hai City when Xue Feng jewelry store opened. Except billionaires, the estimated number of zillionaires in Zhu Hai City was no less than 50, not to mention unknown ones.
In short, as long as you could price it, you could get a buyer in Zhu Hai City.
Sometimes these people might possibly spend millions of yuan in order to boast himself. Indeed, it was easier to make money at their expense.
Xu Haijiang was an acute observer who got hold of their clients" mind and made here a market of high-end brands.
However, it was not a long-term policy, because ordinary people were the majority. As one member of them, w.a.n.g Feng hoped that Xu Haijiang could sell something that common people could afford.
Indeed, w.a.n.g Feng wanted to earn money, but not such money that was against his conscience.
“Xu Haijiang, I give you a suggestion. Can you add some counters selling goods that ordinary people could afford. Or you can build a separate area for them.”
“Well, you can rest a.s.sured. I know what you are worried about. Don"t worry. I have bought a piece of land in Qiong Yao City, the nearest city to Zhu Hai City. Construction of the new shopping mall has started there, which is mainly selling middle and low-end brands.”
“Do you have enough funds?” w.a.n.g Feng nodded and asked.
It"s better to do a large business which attracted all people in society. Ordinary people didn"t have much money, but they occupied an astonishing number in the population. Therefore, they could earn more from ordinary people.
Every wise man knew they were the key to a prosperous business.
“I withdrew 100 million yuan from the shopping mall as a start-up fund, but I estimate we need at least half a year to build the new mall, so I have sufficient money for now.”
“Well, don"t hesitate to tell me if you need money. I am not rich enough, but it"s OK for me to give you several million.”
“No problem. I think in two years, we can really develop into a chain store. Until then, we can even set up a company group.”
“A company group?” w.a.n.g Feng was touched by his words. When he came to Zhu Hai City, he wanted to make more money. Although he was very rich now, what he owned was still far from his original grand dream.
There were so many billionaires in Zhu Hai City. w.a.n.g Feng still could not match up to any of them.
If an enterprise wanted real development, the owner must set up a group, because centralized management provided a better development prospect. That was the reason why those large enterprises all belonged to groups.
The problem was that now w.a.n.g Feng only owned a jewelry store and this shopping mall, which could not meet the requirement of setting up a group. However, it was a certain thing to do in the future, because the two shops could not satisfy w.a.n.g Feng"s ambition.
“By the way, did anyone contract the construction commission?” w.a.n.g Feng suddenly asked.
“Not yet. What do you mean?” Xu Haijiang answered in bewilderment.
That piece of land was bought just a few days ago and the construction didn"t start yet.
“That"s great. I think we"d better set up a real estate company by ourselves. The house prices have been soaring in recent years, and it will certainly become a profiteering industry in the future.”
“Hiss.” Hearing w.a.n.g Feng"s words, Xu Haijiang could not help gasping. Setting up a company was always a result after careful consideration, but w.a.n.g Feng just abruptly decided.
“Do you doubt what I said?” Seeing Xu Haijiang"s reactions, w.a.n.g Feng asked flatly.
“No, though real estate is a profitable industry, I heard that almost every real estate company is supported by the local underworld. We are not familiar with the people in Qiong Yao City, so I"m afraid…”
“You don"t have to worry about it at all. I"ll handle it myself.” Qiong Yao City was so close to Zhu Hai City. As long as He Tian could negotiate with them, every problem would be smoothly solved.
w.a.n.g Feng believed He Tian could solve this. However, he got no idea about who was qualified to manage his new company.
Almost all the people he knew had their own positions, and it was impossible for him to manage it, because he wasn"t really cut out for it and he knew clearly about that.
But soon, w.a.n.g Feng thought of a man and a smile appeared on his face.
“Well, the real estate company can start in half a month at most. Wait for my news.” w.a.n.g Feng patted Xu Haijiang on the shoulder and then left alone.
w.a.n.g Feng stopped a taxi and went straight to Bei Enterprise Jewelry Shop. Although Xue Feng jewelry store had been established as the new headquarter, Bei Enterprise Jewelry Shop never closed.
w.a.n.g Feng wanted Wu Jiayi to help him for Bei Yunxue once told him that she was a management talent, so he didn"t want to waste her talent here.
Since Hua Lian Jewelry Shop had closed, Xue Feng jewelry store cornered the whole jewelry industry, so it could successfully operate without her.
Compared with the Xue Feng jewelry store, business languished here with fewer customers. Anyhow, it was still a profitable store, so he would not close there.
w.a.n.g Feng got off the car and went straight into the store.
As soon as he entered, he froze at the moment due to the incredible scene.
“Brother, why are you here?” w.a.n.g Feng asked in surprise.
Gu Ping was intimately talking with Wu Jiayi. w.a.n.g Feng apprehended their relationship at a glance.
He was just shocked by how soon Xu Haijiang had a girlfriend. He didn"t expect that Gu Ping had already gotten Wu Jiayi"s heart.
Although Wu Jiayi was not as beautiful as Bei Yunxue, she was actually a beauty. Now what he did could be called that he kept fertile water in their own fields.
“Youngest Brother, it"s not you think what it is…” Seeing w.a.n.g Feng come, Gu Ping was slightly blushed and quickly released Wu Jiayi"s hand as if he were a pure young man who had just left the school.
“Well, then tell me what it is.” w.a.n.g Feng refrained from laughing and said.
“It"s not what you think.” Gu Ping shook his head like a drum-shaped rattle as Wu Jiayi became somewhat sullen.
“We are in love now. He"s too bashful to admit it.” Wu Jiayi frankly said at this point.
“Congratulations.” w.a.n.g Feng made a congratulative gesture to them.
He didn"t expect his eldest brother could be so bada.s.s as to quietly get Wu Jiayi"s heart.
“What brought you here?” Gu Ping changed the topic and asked.
“I almost forgot. I have something to talk to her, no, my sister-in-law.” w.a.n.g Feng answered quickly.
“Go ahead, I"ll go home first.” Gu Ping was about to leave, while Wu Jiayi stopped him.
“Don"t escape, anyway, we are friends. Stay with me.” Wu Jiayi glared at Gu Ping and a bitter smile appeared on Gu Pin"s face.
“Let"s go inside to talk.” w.a.n.g Feng pointed in the direction behind the counters and said.
“Follow me.” Wu Jiayi said.
“Why on earth can"t we talk outside?” In the past, Wu Jiayi was cold to w.a.n.g Feng, but since she witnessed how cruel he was, her att.i.tude had changed for the better. She no longer despised him, now she admired him.
He could run Xue Feng jewelry store by himself and beat Hua Lian Jewelry Shop. She could not imagine how incredible he was.
She worked as a shop manager for many years, she clearly knew how difficult to beat Hua Lian Jewelry Shop in business. If Hua Lian Jewelry Shop didn"t supply them before, they had already gone bankrupt.
However, Hua Lian Jewelry Shop had closed down, while they became the biggest one in Zhu Hai City. Moreover, w.a.n.g Feng seemed to be behind all of this.
