"Ah Xuan, then it's settled. In the future, about the teahouse and pastry shop selling newspapers?”
"Don't worry, Uncle Shen. I will inform the teahouse. In the future, during morning tea time, all the teahouses that the Gu family has joined will allow the paperboy from Ming Pao to enter and sell newspapers. As for the pastry shop, you can ask someone to set up a newsstand there. Our Gu Ji will welcome you."
"Haha, good…Alright, Ah Xuan, don't worry. I guarantee that there won't be any negative news about Gu's in the Ming Bao anymore. Moreover, in the future, the Ming Bao will only have news about Gu's and no other brands!”
"Thank you, Uncle Shen!"
Seeing that the matter was settled, Gu Mingxuan and Shen Baoxin, the two sly foxes, smiled knowingly.
Gu Mingxuan valued Shen Baoxin not only because he was the CEO of Ming Pao, but also because he was very capable.
It could be said that if Ming Pao relied on Kim Yong alone, it would not be able to achieve the scale it had today.
Shen Baoxin was the real operator of Ming Pao. He had played a huge role in increasing the sales volume of Ming Pao to where it was today!
Besides, Gu Mingxuan had his own thoughts about Ming Bao, so he could befriend Shen Baoxin in advance.
On the other hand, Shen Baoxin valued Gu Mingxuan because of the benefits.
Gu's Pastry Shop had become the leader of the pastry industry in Xiangjiang City. In the future, there would definitely be Gu's Pastry Shop everywhere in Xiangjiang City.
If he made good use of it, it would be beneficial to Ming Bao.
Don't think that the newspaper industry doesn't need competition.
The competition in the newspaper industry was equally intense!
Just like other industries, newspapers needed marketing to increase sales.
According to Shen Baoxin's many years of business experience.
Ming Pao's retail sales were concentrated in the morning.
People in Xiangjiang usually read newspapers while having breakfast.
Therefore, many office workers in Xiangjiang City would go to the newsstand to buy newspapers after buying breakfast in the snack shop.
Now that there was a ready-made newsstand next to the pastry shop, how could the sales of the newspapers not increase?
Not only did Shen Baoxin see this, he even suggested that the Gu Household's delivery man should help Ming Pao deliver newspapers when he delivered goods in the future.
Unfortunately, Gu Mingxuan rejected this suggestion.
Gu Mingxuan's reason for rejection was irrefutable." Gu Ji did not have enough manpower. The delivery man did not even have time to pee, so he could not do anything else.
Of course, only Gu Mingxuan himself knew if that was the truth.
...............
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Liu Peilin of Da Rong Hua, in addition to leaving the necessary shop assistants to look after the shop, personally went to work. He led a team of nearly 100 people and became a hawker on the streets of Xiangjiang.
Unfortunately, the mooncake business was getting worse and worse as the Mid-Autumn Festival market gradually subsided.
With Gu Ji's sniping, Da Rong Hua's situation was even worse.
After selling for half a month, Da Rong Hua had only sold less than 300,000 mooncakes.
"President Liu, there are tens of thousands of mooncakes that have expired in the warehouse today. If this continues,"
Li Wenfeng said worriedly.
The shelf life of mooncakes varied from 15 days to two months.
Now, the speed at which they sold mooncakes could not keep up with the speed at which the mooncakes went bad.
If this continued, the mooncakes would probably be thrown away before they were sold out.
"Old Li, from tomorrow onwards, Da Rong Hua's mooncakes will be 30% off!"
Liu Peilin thought about it for a long time and came up with this idea.
"Sigh, that's the only way!"
Like Liu Peilin, Li Wenfeng's heart was bleeding.
However, selling it at a loss was better than throwing it away.
While Da Rong Hua was struggling, Gu Ji did not stop its development.
Now, Gu's Restaurant had opened branches in nine districts in the New Territories.
As of mid-November, Gu's had 18 dim sum shops, 428 affiliated tea restaurants, and 379 employees in Hong Kong.
With the development of Gu's Restaurant, Gu's affiliated tea restaurants spread all over Hong Kong. The delivery tasks of the staff of Gu's Restaurant became more and more heavy, and it was not uncommon for the delivery time to be delayed.
To resolve this problem, Gu Mingxuan made an important decision. He wanted to separate the transportation department of Gu Ji's pastry company and set up a company that specialized in transporting goods.
"Port Link? Logistics?"
Hu Yanni and Pan Yingzi looked at each other.
This was the first time they had heard of the term 'logistician'.
"You guys know about the post office, right? This is equivalent to a privately established post office!”
Gu Mingxuan explained.
"Ah Xuan, the cost of building a post office is not small.”
Hu Yanni was shocked when she heard that Gu Mingxuan wanted to set up a company like the Post Office.
Of course, everyone in Xiangjiang City knew about the Post Office, but the initial investment was not something that ordinary rich people could afford.
Since the establishment of Xiangjiang Post Office in 1841, there had been nearly 100 post offices.
The construction of these post offices was a huge sum of money.
Not to mention building a transportation network that was connected to the world. That was an astronomical figure.
Hu Yanni was a little worried that Gu Mingxuan would be blinded by his recent victories and make an irrational decision.
