Chapter 49: 49 The Capital of the Richest Man

49 The Capital of the Richest Man

Charle Department Store Headquarters... that must be twenty-two kilometers, right?

Seeing that a big business had come, the steam carriage driver was refreshed. He threw away the cigarette in his hand and whipped the horse's buttocks lightly.

"Drive!"

"Neigh~"

Accompanied by the long neigh of the two short-legged horses, the small boiler behind the carriage emitted thin smoke, went all the way up along the air chimney of the carriage wall, and the water tank hidden in the chassis also made a splashing sound.

Next, with the creaking sound of the engine beating and the clicking sound of the wheel axle rotating, the bottom of the entire carriage was arched off the ground by the airflow. When the sound of horse hooves hitting the asphalt ground sounded, this noisy steam carriage had already rushed out seven or eight meters away.

"Guest! There are a lot of people at Charle Department Store!"

It seems that no matter which world it is, there is no one who does this line of work who is not a chatterbox. Even though the roar of the boiler lingered in his ears, it still didn't stop the steam carriage driver's enthusiastic conversation. After aiming at Li Ang from the rearview mirror, he shouted:

"Did you also hear that they are having a promotion and are preparing to go for a big purchase? Or is there someone in your family who got sick from drinking water from the public water pipes and is preparing to register to ask for compensation?"

Having a promotion? Register to ask for compensation?

Li Ang, who originally didn't have the heart to chat, was shocked when he heard the driver's question. He subconsciously hugged the folder in his arms and asked with full confusion:

"Charle Department Store... has already started to compensate the victims in advance? What's going on with the promotion?"

"Ahahaha, these two are actually the same thing!"

Seeing that Li Ang had picked up the conversation, the carriage driver, who was very interested in talking, answered loudly with a smile:

"Didn't the public water pipes have problems a while ago! That Water Company that contracted the water pipes was opened by Charle Department Store and others, but it seems that the business situation was not good, and it hasn't made a profit until now, which made Charle Department Store have no money to compensate, so the boss's wife was so angry that she couldn't catch her breath, and she almost died on the spot.

This matter made the boss of Charle Department Store really have no move, so he directly hung up the sign of selling goods to compensate for money, took out all the things in the department store and piled them on the street, marked the price and sold them at a loss. The things were so cheap that it was simply scary. It is estimated that half of the people in the capital went to grab goods!"

Seeming to feel that just moving his mouth was not enough to describe the grandeur of the scene, the carriage driver also let go of one side of the reins, raised his hand to gesture a "gongs and drums, firecrackers, red flags, people mountain people sea," and then continued to say to Li Ang, who was stunned:

"Also, he later asked people to carry a large box with openings on both sides. The money from selling goods on this side was just stuffed into the box, and the people queuing up to receive compensation on that side could directly receive the money. Except for the people who counted the money and verified the identity of the patients, the whole process did not pass through their company's hands!

The most powerful thing is that the box is completely transparent. How much money is in it, everyone can see clearly. Guaranteed that if there is one copper wheel, one copper wheel will be returned. In short, he is responsible for the Water Company's matter to the end, compensating until the department store goes bankrupt!

Ahahaha! Guest, you really don't say, although that old man's company is not very good, and he compensates money from time to time, but this matter is really handled brightly! Now many people are worried that they will go bankrupt too quickly, and they will finish before they can take advantage of it, and they are all rushing there like crazy!"

"..."

He compensates a fart! If you guys keep buying like this, he's probably going to lose money and become the richest man!

After hearing about the absurd operations of Charle Department Store, Leon was immediately filled with boundless admiration for the "Old Charle" he had never met.

As a person who has experienced the destruction of various business routines, he understands too well how much operational space there can be.

The price of things in a department store is originally watery. The production cost of industrial-era products is so low,

It is something that people who have not experienced it cannot imagine at all. Selling a pack of high-end goods for three silver wheels, if the production cost can reach five copper wheels, he is willing to twist his head off and give it to them as a ball to kick!

So this so-called big price reduction, in the end, it must be profitable! It might even be a big profit!

What's more, the people who buy have already been stimulated to have no brains, but the people who sell may not. In the end, what things are sold at a reduced price is decided by the department store!

Those things that were originally marked with high prices, old goods that have been in storage for a long time and cannot be sold, and goods that can talk about super low prices with production factories, just pile them up and sell them. Anyway, cigarettes marked at three silver wheels can be profitable at half price, and they are grabbed as soon as they are put out, so they must be ruthless!

As for the payment being compensated as soon as it arrives... cheating ghosts?

People who buy goods can leave as soon as they pay, but people who receive compensation have to verify their identity carefully. This speed difference between entering and exiting, even if the money box is large, it will be filled, and can the people of the department store not take away the overflowing money?

Anyway, for those who come to ask for compensation, the most afraid is that there is no money to compensate and no movement. Charle Department Store has been honestly compensating money, constantly promising to compensate until the company goes bankrupt, plus such a large money box full of money placed there, even if there are some questioning voices, the people who want compensation will definitely not make trouble.

And after taking away this "a little bit" of extra money, Charle Department Store will probably immediately place urgent orders with various factories, and even rely on its own huge shipment volume to directly "semi-forcibly" owe money to the opposite side, forcing factories to accept goods first and pay later, and by the way, ruthlessly suppress a price.

In the commercial era, people who can sell things are dads!

As long as this "compensation promotion" is opened for a week, it is estimated that it can empty half a year's purchasing power of the entire capital. Except for Charle Department Store, all other department stores will lose a large amount of money on their accounts, and those with thin foundations will be squeezed to death by payment and storage!

And as long as Charle Department Store survives, it can successfully occupy more than 90% of the retail end and kidnap most of the relevant factories by relying on its own status. It is estimated that no one will be able to compete with him in terms of department stores for at least the next ten or twenty years.

As for whether doing things so absolutely will be targeted by the relevant departments of the Kingdom... make a joke, am I making money? I am losing money! Ruthlessly losing money!

Everyone who is still waiting for compensation, listen, we are really sincere about compensating you, and even to raise money, we are selling things at a loss. Didn't you see that our boss's wife is so sick from losing money?

But the xxx of the Kingdom's xx department and the xx noble xx councilor stood up together and said that we are malicious dumping and disrupting the market, and do not allow me to sell like this, so everyone waiting for compensation go back first, wait until we raise money by selling goods normally, as for when we can raise money...

Hehe, that depends on when you can rush those xxxxxx! ===== CHAPTER 50 =====
