Chapter 266 It's time to eat meat
disappointment!
Qingyang Pharmacist and the others were very disappointed. They originally thought that with their financial resources, it would definitely not be the turn of Heiyang Jiuzhen and the others this time, but they did not expect that Li Qi would sell it himself this time.
Black Yang Jiuzhen and Jiuwei Bai Mei were a little worried about gains and losses. Although their financial resources were not as good as Qingyang Pharmacist and others, they had always cooperated with Li Qi. This was their advantage. Now Li Qi did not hand over the soda to them, but also to Qingyang Pharmacist and others. Therefore, they did not know whether to be happy or worried.
Li Qi had decided to do this long ago, otherwise he would have taken the soda over early in the morning and raised funds from them with the soda. He would not wait until now, and he would definitely not give it to them until now.
There are three main reasons why Li Qi wants to sell it himself this time.
First, it is profit! Any transaction is based on profit. Soda drink is not suitable for selling at high prices, and it cannot be sold at high prices. If you want to make a move, it means to make a move at the first wave of freshness. Soon people will not buy it again because it is not worth it. The royal family does not have the habit of selling kidneys. If the price is greatly reduced, it will damage their reputation and backfire. Therefore, if you sell it for them, they will definitely not sell cheaply. They are all big producers. This small profit but too much sales are not suitable for them, but if it is expensive, it will not be conducive to the sales of soda. If it is sold cheaply, first of all, they will lose interest. At the same time, Li Qi also gives up the profit to these big producers and simply sell it himself.
Secondly, Li Qi was afraid that it would cause dissatisfaction among many royal families. If they gave Black Sheep Jiuzhen or Jiuwei Bai Mei, they monopolized soda and made more money from soda, but they used soda in their strategies to grab customers. Just like Jiuwei Bai Mei, Li Qi wanted to disclose the secret of the wine to relieve her pressure, but she refused to agree, but the reason why she refused was not a profit issue. If she made the secret, their wine could still be sold, but this would affect the commercial layout of their Jiuwei family, but this would definitely hurt the interests of other royal families, and it might even make some owners think that Li Qi's existence is constantly hurting their interests, and sooner or later they would join forces to deal with Li Qi.
Third, brand problem. If you give it to them, who is the brand? Jiuwei Baimei and Heiyang Jiuzhen are now using wine to expand their popularity and influence. Soda is more suitable for brand promotion than wine. Because soda has a wide audience, this is also a reason why Li Qi is unwilling to sell it at a high price. The selling price is high and there are fewer customers, which is not conducive to brand promotion.
These big owners are disappointed, but no one gets it, and it is not unacceptable.
The key point was that Li Qi set the price, which made them lose interest immediately.
Of course, Li Qi's status is different now. He has a purple gold halo on his head, and he is a man who dares to confront the purple gold war clan. They did not force Li Qi at the beginning, so there is no need to say more now.
They didn't force anything. After dinner, they ordered some soda and went back. In fact, Li Qi had many transactions to discuss with them this time, but it was not suitable for such occasions, so they would definitely talk to them separately.
But Jiutail Bai Mei did not rush to leave.
The three of them came to the conference room with very simple furnishings again.
"I'm so sorry for letting you down."
Li Qi first bowed his hand.
Hei Yang Jiuzhen smiled and said, "I was a little disappointed at first, but thinking about it, you are right. In fact, as long as everyone can buy soda, we still have the advantage of wine."
Jiuwei Bai Mei sighed lightly: "It's a pity that the advantages of this wine have not yet been reflected!"
These big producers are more refined than the other. They know that this soda cannot be compared with wine as soon as they taste it. Wine is the most critical weapon, but the problem is that the output of this wine is too small.
Li Qi smiled bitterly at first, and then said, "I am about to talk to you about this. Now that the winery has been expanded, I estimate that the output will increase by at least five to six times, and will soon increase to ten times."
A hint of joy flashed in Black Yang Jiuzhen's eyes and said, "This is really good news!"
Jiutail Bai Mei was even more excited and said, "Don't lie to your sister."
"How dare I deceive Sister Mei?" Li Qi said: "If nothing unexpected happens, there should be no problem. When I think about the supply of Niu Tuofeng is no longer a problem, so now we should focus on the outside market."
Jiutail Bai Mei said: "What do you think?"
Li Qi pondered for a moment and said, "We had lowered the price of wine once, but because of the arrival of Zijin Gong, the price of wine has risen now. However, the price of wine must be reduced. It is impossible to always be so expensive. And we can't just drop a little bit like the price cuts that time, pretending. We must lower the price more wisely, make the price more reasonable, and make the customer have no complaints."
Heiyang Jiuzhen said: "A more wise price reduction?"
"Not bad!" Li Qi nodded and said, "In order to pursue production, it is impossible for us to ensure that the wine produced by each winery has the same taste, and each wine is very delicious..."
Before he could finish his words, Jiuwei Bai Mei said, "Do you want to divide the wine into different levels?"
Li Qi nodded and said, "That's true. If you do this, it will be of great benefit to the promotion of wine and will become more reasonable, because for those royal families or other races with low income, this is actually a price reduction. For big producers, as long as the wine is good and there is more money, they won't care. It means that we can satisfy customers at all levels, and there will be more customers drinking. Then we are not doing a one-time business, we have to be careful. The more customers we drink, the greater our profits and the brighter our prospects will be."
Jiutail Bai Mei nodded immediately and said, "I agree with this."
Black Sheep Jiuzhen also nodded.
The diversification and hierarchy of prices are necessary. No product is a single price, which violates market laws. For both of them, doing so is more conducive to their business layout, because the customers they face are originally powerful or large-scale owners, and the customers they face are also of all classes.
Jiuwei Bai Mei said excitedly again: "Then when will you deliver this million jar of wine?"
"I'm afraid it will take about a hundred days, and the winery has just started to operate." Li Qi said again: "But if a trader comes to ask during this period, Sister Mei can say that I have to order it, and I have not produced any excess wine."
Jiutail Bai Mei nodded and said, "That's all."
The three of them have a finalized together and temporarily set the price of the wine at five levels, one level with the powerful, one level with the big owner, one level with the small owner, one level with the royal family, and one level with other races.
After leaving the trade hall, Li Qi went back to the human shop.
"Chief, when did you come?"
I just got admitted to the hospital and met Xiaobai.
Li Qi smiled and said, "I just arrived, why haven't you gone out today?"
Xiaobai said: "I just came back from outside."
Li Qi nodded and asked casually: "Where is Lao Tong and the others?"
Xiaobai said: "They went to the freight station to study today."
Li Qi frowned and said, "Freight Station?"
Xiaobai nodded and said, "Lao Tong said that the most important thing in our China Alliance is transactions, and the construction of this freight station is very important to us."
Li Qi smiled slightly.
When Taba came here to study, he learned more from the authorities and their systems and laws. But Lao Tong took a different route because Lao Tong knew how to please Li Qi. He knew that Li Qi valued the most was trading, so he specialized in learning this knowledge.
When he arrived inside the house, Li Qi asked again: "How are you doing recently? Are you doing a lot?"
"But a lot!" Xiaobai said a little excitedly: "Many traders come to the door and want to trade with our China Alliance."
"Is that?" Li Qi said: "Let's hear it."
Xiaobai reported to Li Qi all the business during this period.
Dozens of traders have come to see if they have the opportunity to cooperate with the Huaxia Alliance. This is mainly because of Taotie. Now everyone has no longer much concern about the Huaxia Alliance, and the potential displayed by the Huaxia Alliance is getting stronger and stronger. If you don’t fight for it, there will be no chance.
After hearing this, Li Qi nodded slightly and said, "Xiaobai, this is the time when we are here, our China Alliance is no longer the same as before, and has passed the stage of seeking people. Now we have to start taking the initiative, and transactions cannot be discussed like this."
Xiaobai said curiously: "What should we talk about?"
Li Qi said: "No longer let them sell products to us based on their own wishes, we ask them to make what kind of products, just like when we were bidding. Now we are a big customer with great potential for them. Because we have nothing and there are many things to sell. As long as the goods we need, the quantity must be quite large, so we can let them tailor-made products for us."
Xiaobai felt a little embarrassed: "But...but I don't know what kind of product we want."
Li Qi smiled and said, "Of course I will tell you this." At this point, he paused and said, "It just so happens that there is a big deal I want you to complete."
Xiaobai said: "What big deal?"
Li Qi said: "It seems that the milk in our human shop has always been supplied by Aries Hermitage."
Xiaobai nodded.
Li Qi said: "What do you think of them?"
Xiaobai said: "I think he is quite honest and always delivers milk on time, and it is very good milk."
Li Qi nodded and said, "In this way, our food processing factory has begun to make profits. In the future, whether it is the profits obtained from the food processing factory or the profits of human stores, they will be used to buy cattle, sheep and milk."
Xiaobai said in surprise: "This quantity is quite large. Why do we buy so much?"
Today's food processing plants are very profitable.
Li Qi said: "You have always been here, and you definitely don't know the current situation of our Huaxia Alliance. Now our Huaxia Alliance is very short of meat because there are too many people. It is everyone's joint efforts, not because of a certain person. I hope that everyone in our Huaxia Alliance can eat meat and milk. In addition, I will allocate another hundred gold shells to you, but I believe that in the future, the profits of the food processing factory will be enough to meet our needs."
Although Li Qi is very glorious here, humans are still not as good as most second-class races. Regarding this, Li Qi is actually very guilty because he invested money in the steam engine at the first time, just to buy black iron. Everyone is working very hard. If he is a boss, he will definitely not do this. However, as a chief, he has no choice. If he does not develop the steam engine, he will not be able to make food now. However, the basic aspects have been stabilized, and the business is also very stable. He is about to ship a large amount of goods. Although he owes a lot of debt, he is not afraid of not having funds. He can raise funds at any time. He feels it is time to improve human life, mainly meat products and dairy products.
Nowadays, humans have no need for housing and clothing, and what humans have always pursued is food.
Xiaobai sweated slightly and said, "Chief, are you leaving this... to me to discuss? Or I'll get in touch with the other party's trader first."
Li Qi smiled and said, "You can just talk, are there any problems?"
"I...I've never talked about such a big deal." Xiaobai said nervously.
Li Qi said: "You are the trader of our China Alliance. People send traders to discuss. Isn't it wrong for you to ask me, the chief, to discuss?"
Xiaobai scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "Yes...is not good, just..."
Li Qi smiled and said, "I believe you can do it. Although the transaction amount is very large, there will not be much room for competition in terms of price, because many races buy food from Niu Tuofeng, and they don't have to worry about selling. What you want to talk about is mainly about supply time and continuous supply. You will talk first and let Aries Mu prepare for this. After all, the amount we want is very large, and we can't buy it now."
Xiaobai said: "Why?"
Li Qi said: "Because I have to prepare some containers to fill the meat first."
In fact, many races go back directly with cattle and sheep, because if they are killed here, the meat cannot be preserved for a long time. However, because the Huaxia Alliance is far away from the Niutu, the cost will be relatively high. Moreover, the cattle and sheep of Niututu are from beasts for humans, and there is no way to raise them in captivity for the time being. Even if the royal family helps kill them, it cannot be said that they can be eaten in one meal, and they still have to find a way to preserve them. Li Qi felt that it would be better to kill them here first, make them into cans, and then transport them back to the Huaxia Alliance. In fact, canned food will not lose too much nutrition, but the road to canned food will be deviated in later generations.
Xiaobai also wondered: "Yes! How to send the milk back."
Li Qi smiled and said, "I have my own way."
Chapter completed!
