398. Chapter 398 Not a Good Deal



Han Yu obviously also noticed the floor-length mirror. The position of the mirror was too conspicuous and one could see it as soon as he went upstairs. If it was any other item, it would be fine, but a floor-length mirror was a rare item. One could see one's own appearance clearly instead of a blurry image. Especially such a large mirror was priceless. There were only a few of them in the entire Daming Dynasty, so it was difficult for people to notice it. It was only Mr. Su who was willing to give it to his daughter as a gift for opening a shop.

"You made this mirror too?" Han Yu was a little bit unbelievable. Other things were fine, but a mirror was absolutely impossible to make without a recipe. If it was really made by his wife, he would be more than just surprised and shocked.

"Of course not. You said you underestimated me, but now you overestimate me. I don't have the ability to do that. My father got it from a merchant in another vassal state. He spent a lot of money on it. Only your precious daughter would be willing to give me such a valuable thing. It was originally intended for me to use for daily dressing, but I think it's a waste of talent. Now, if I move the mirror into the shop, it will be of many more uses." Su Wenyue felt that she was really smart and knew how to make the best use of things. With this mirror, the grade of the shop was raised. She would go around Yiyang city to ask around to find out which shop was so luxurious.

Han Yu felt that this was reasonable, otherwise he really didn't know how to react. However, he was even more impressed by his father-in-law's love for his daughter-in-law, and sighed again: "Father-in-law really loves you too much."

"He's my biological father. If he doesn't love me, who else would he love? He has loved me the most since I was young. As my father said, 'daughters are meant to be loved.' My brother has also been giving in to me since he was young." Su Wenyue's eyes were filled with deep emotion and shame when she mentioned her family.

After hearing what Su Wenyue said, Han Yu felt grateful to his father-in-law and elder brother-in-law. In the past, although his father-in-law and elder brother-in-law always helped him with major matters, they also made things difficult for him on weekdays. Han Yu was more or less unhappy. Now that he realized the love his father-in-law's family had for his daughter-in-law, he finally understood how his father-in-law and elder brother-in-law felt about their daughter being snatched away, especially since he also had a daughter now. The thought of his soft and sweet daughter being snatched away by an unknown man in the future made him furious. So far, his father-in-law's family had been very polite to him.

"Wife, don't worry, we will be filial to our parents-in-law in the future." Han Yu could not say more and remained grateful in his heart. In fact, not to mention the past, even this time when he led the people in the uprising, although his father-in-law's family seemed to have cut off ties with him, they also took risks in private to support him and gave him a lot of help. Otherwise, if he relied on himself alone, things would not have been so smooth.

Su Wenyue was happy to see Han Yu expressing such an attitude. It was enough for Han Yu to know what her parents had done for him. Besides, Han Yu was a person who never spoke empty words. Since he had expressed this, he would not treat her family badly in the future.

"It's good that you know. Let's not talk about this anymore. Can you help me see if there are any shortcomings and give me some suggestions?" Su Wenyue knew the principle of knowing when to stop. If some things are mentioned too much, it will easily make people feel disgusted, so she changed the subject.

Seeing Su Wenyue say this, Han Yu did not just give a perfunctory response. He took a careful look around and made a few suggestions. The key point was the counter. Su Wenyue had made it open according to her memory from her previous life, so customers could take it and look at it if they wanted.

"It's better to change this place into a closed one."

"Husband, do you think this is inappropriate? Wouldn't it be more convenient for everyone to pick up and read it if it is open like this? It also saves a lot of trouble. The most important thing is that it is unique and not cliché." Su Wenyue didn't quite understand. In her opinion, this was much more convenient. Moreover, such an open style was both novel and troublesome. She wanted it to exist as a highlight, but it was pointed out by Han Yu.

Seeing that his wife didn't understand, Han Yu patiently explained, "It is indeed very convenient. If the shop you opened was an ordinary shop for the masses, it would also be a unique highlight. But now you are targeting the upper class, so this is very inappropriate."

"What's wrong with that?" Su Wenyue still didn't understand. Chen Li did the same thing before, and she succeeded in the end. Su Wenyue did not deny that she had plagiarized Chen Li's idea in a despicable way, but the business world is like a battlefield, and Chen Li's methods were not bright either. So everyone should be the same as before, as long as they stick to the bottom line.

“Think about it, if you go to a shop to buy something, you may find this method strange at first. It is indeed easy to attract some people, but this method will not be strange after being used too much. If other shops think this method is good, they will also follow suit, and gradually the advantage will disappear.

The upper class have a sense of superiority, thinking that they are superior to others and should enjoy different services. The things in the counter can be seen and touched by everyone, which only makes them feel cheap. At first, they may try it once or twice because of the novelty, but they will never come again. "

After Su Wenyue heard Han Yu say this, she understood: "So that's how it is. It's indeed the truth."

Su Wenyue thought carefully. Although the shop opened by Chen Li in the past was very famous and many people came to buy things, there were few real noble people coming to buy. She was a little puzzled at the time. It turned out to be this reason. She really could not have thought of it if Han Yu hadn't told her.

Su Wenyue originally asked Han Yu for advice, but she just said a few casual words to change the subject. She thought she had prepared very well and there should be no omissions. Unexpectedly, Han Yu raised the biggest problem. It is true that there must be a teacher among three people. People should not be too proud and complacent. She finally got proud and complacent for once, but was hit by Han Yu.

Han Yu also understood Su Wenyue's original intention for designing this, and added: "In fact, to make customers feel at home, the most important thing is to train the staff below to read the customers' expressions and know how to provide help according to their needs. If you want customers to be able to see the goods on the shelves, you can replace the top layer of wood with glass, just like the gold cabinet on the second floor. This is also quite good."

Because the second floor would contain final items such as jewelry, Su Wenyue did not design an open-style one, but instead adopted this method, which was noticed by Han Yu.

Han Yu not only raised the question, but also gave Su Wenyue advice. Su Wenyue thought this was a good idea, but it was a pity that it was not very practical to implement: "This is good, but you don't know, it took me a lot of effort to get the glass on the second floor. My father and brother are out of stock. If we want to get it from other provinces, it will take a long time. The shop will open in a few days, and we can't wait. It will cost too much to do it again. It's not very cost-effective.
