Chapter 565 567. Tell me what you think
Other businesses are easy to deal with, but Jin Qianqian has no plans to set up a security agency at the moment.
Apart from the lack of manpower, I do have a few industries under my control, so there is no need to compete with everyone else.
But here in Tianzhuang, the escort agency is still the mainstay of his business. If he doesn't disrupt this business line, the Tian family will revive sooner or later.
"Madam, doesn't Mr. Deng, the master's classmate, own an escort agency?" When Lichun saw Jin Qianqian circle the word "escort agency", he knew what she was thinking.
Jin Qianqian shook her head. "Deng Yuanhang's escort company can only go as far as Lecheng. He is just a scholar now. There is no need to involve him in our affairs."
"How about we set up an escort agency? We have so much business traveling back and forth between the north and the south anyway, and it would be profitable if we let others make money, so we might as well set up our own agency." Lidong also suggested.
Jin Qianqian looked at Lixia at this time, "Since you want to take on the task, then tell me, what is the best way for us to do it?"
Lixia thought for a moment and immediately said, "Madam, I feel that the escort agency needs too many people. We don't know much about this industry, and it would not be a good idea to rush in.
We can take advantage of the situation, but Mr. Deng's escort agency is still too small. Even if we support it, we can only barely bring the entire team up. There is no way we can compete with such a long-established escort agency.
Moreover, the escort agency is opened in every city and has to have dealings with the official and Kun forces in various places. Obviously, the Deng family escort agency cannot accomplish this.
But the escort agency under the name of Prince Bai is comparable in strength."
Jin Qianqian didn't expect that this girl's idea coincided with hers. "Do you think Master Bai will help us?"
Lixia, "Madam, although I don't know what kind of business dealings our family has with Prince Bai, but every once in a while there is a huge amount of money coming in, and each time it overlaps with the people sent by Prince Bai, so I dare to guess, does our family also have a share in this escort business?"
Jin Qianqian laughed grimly, "You guessed wrong, but you are a careful observer. We do have some business involvement with Master Bai, but it has nothing to do with the escort company.
I know what you're thinking. You want to use the identity of Prince Bai to suppress the Tian family, but don't you think about whether Prince Bai would agree?
There are so many escort companies in the world, and they all have their own internal codes of conduct. "
To outsiders, the escort agencies are all competitive businesses, but only those inside know that they actually support each other. This has become an established rule and it is not so easy to break it.
Lixia, "We are not asking Prince Bai to fight against them, we are just setting up several escort teams on the same route."
"That needs a legitimate reason. If we want to get the dart team up and running, we need people to throw the darts. We can't just spend a lot of money and have it go in vain!" Jin Qianqian smiled at Lixia, wanting to see how she would answer this time.
Lixia was not afraid. She found several lines where the Tianzhuang Escort Team often traveled, drew them on a blank piece of paper, and marked them.
“Ma’am, you see, the cities he often visits are all places we have never been to.
Now that we have established a soap workshop, it is time to open up some new business channels.
After a while, when we return from our sea trade trips, there will probably be a lot of imported goods. Just based on these, our business relying on the escort team will increase, and this can be considered as a bargaining chip in our hands.
We only need a designated escort team and an agreement with the cooperating merchants. Do you think they will not make a choice in order to get our products?"
"Yes, you have grasped the point that businessmen value profit." Jin Qianqian nodded affirmatively. Lixia is usually quiet, but unexpectedly, he is the most meticulous person.
"So as long as we do this and convince Prince Bai to take over this business, the Tian family will undoubtedly lose a lot of stable customers. In this way, even if he runs a convoy, his profit will be reduced. If this continues, he won't be able to support himself for long."
Jin Qianqian sighed softly, "But you missed one point. If we want to persuade Master Bai, we have to bring out our bargaining chips."
The reason Bai Jinglie came here before, in addition to wanting to inquire about maritime trade, was also to ask Gu Wenheng to help him find another way to make money.
Lixia made a bitter face, "Isn't it okay to rely on our previous friendship?"
Jin Qianqian, "Don't trust friendship too much.
Before, when we were in Lecheng, Mrs. Nan and I were the same. We got along quite well with each other.
But when interests are really involved, they have already made their choice.
With this little friendship, Bai Jinglie would not be willing to get involved for our family's personal vendetta."
The maids were silent, but they believed that the lady must have a solution.
Jin Qianqian drove everyone out early and locked herself in the room to write and draw.
When Gu Wenheng returned home, he looked at her tired eyes, walked over and held her pen directly.
"Don't worry about anything right now. If you really can't do it, you can wait for your husband to come back and do it for you."
Jin Qianqian let go of her hands and stretched her joints. After writing for a while, her hands were indeed a little sore.
"You are so busy, not to mention that I have to trouble you with such a small matter."
Gu Wenheng tapped her forehead and said, "We are an old married couple, and you still have to be so polite.
I heard that you have been locked in this room for two hours, just for these things."
Gu Wenheng lowered his head and flipped through a few pages. "Why are you suddenly interested in glass making? Did Bai Jinglie come to you?"
Jin Qianqian stretched her neck and said, "I need a favor from him, so I have to show some sincerity."
Gu Wenheng, "You are catching all the glassware in one fell swoop."
Jin Qianqian, "That's right. Anyway, after he has come up with an idea, his craftsmen will also think of it. Why not write a few more items to do him a favor?
But then you will have to trouble yourself to deal with him again."
Gu Wenheng, "Are you afraid that he will use this as a threat to take back the share of the glass workshop?"
Jin Qianqian rejected it, "He won't, because he's not sure if you have other strange ideas in your mind. For the sake of future wealth, he will only try to win you over."
Gu Wenheng picked up the pen and drew a few circles in it, "I will prepare a copy when the time comes, and you don't have to worry about the other things.
Do you want to use his escort agency to target the farm?"
Jin Qianqian, "Jiang Mili is here to report to you."
Only then did she remember that Jiang Mili was originally Gu Wenheng's long-time attendant. A few days ago, he happened to have no one else available, so he borrowed her.
After returning home, I have to go and wait for orders from my master.
"He mentioned a few things." There was nothing to hide, so Gu Wenheng naturally told the truth.
