October 23rd, an auspicious day, auspicious and prosperous.
Du Qi's down jackets opened in Yongxing City.
In fact, many people in Chang 'an City didn't know what down jackets were. The problem was that with the publicity of Li Yuan's inscription and Li Shimin's inscription, the down jacket store became popular.
What's more, before the down jacket store opened, Du Qi asked Qian Zailai to advertise in the Tang dynasty's daily newspaper so that people in Chang 'an knew about the down jacket store.
On the opening day, it instantly became popular.
Countless people poured into the store.
Countless people bought down jackets.
Originally, this down jacket store had stocked up five thousand down jackets. But in the end, they were all sold out. The sales of this day were sky-high.
It was far more profitable than tea leaves and restaurants.
Because the real top-grade down jackets were extremely expensive, the most expensive ones were as much as dozens of strings of coins. However, there were also ordinary down jackets that only cost two or three hundred strings of coins.
No matter if it was expensive or cheap, they were all sold out.
After counting, Fu Dacheng was completely shocked.
Today's sales were as much as 120,000 strings of coins. Such a figure was simply terrifying. Of course, Fu Dacheng also knew that such a situation only appeared on the first day.
This was because many people needed down jackets. Later on, this demand would gradually decrease.
In the evening, Fu Dacheng personally went to the Du family to meet Du Qi and reported, "Young Master, today's sales are as much as 120,000 strings of coins, nearly 130,000 strings of coins."
"You know, from the beginning until now, we didn't spend so much money. Today, we've already recouped all of our costs. "
"Young Master, you are really amazing."
Fu Dacheng said, "Originally, the other shopkeepers and I were a little worried, but we didn't expect to achieve such success."
Du Qi said, "Shopkeeper Fu, this is just the beginning. And today's sales are 120,000 strings of coins. I expect that tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, there will be more people buying, and the sales will increase. Is the stock in the warehouse outside the city enough? "
Fu Dacheng said, "Young Master, in our warehouse, there are more than 20,000 sets of stock. It is definitely enough. However, there aren't enough ducks around here. "
"After all, it takes a considerable amount of time to raise the ducks."
"Even if we start raising ducks now, it won't be enough for us to be self-sufficient. Furthermore, it was impossible to consume so many ducks. After all, many people would not kill a duck for its feathers. "
After pausing for a moment, Fu Dacheng continued, "However, according to my estimation, after today's sales, there should be a decrease and a slowdown. It shouldn't continue to increase tomorrow or the day after!"
Du Qi explained, "Even if we advertised in the Daily Newspaper of the Tang dynasty before, it's still not enough. In fact, they even used the reputation of His Majesty and the Duke of Qin to promote it. In reality, although the effect was there, it wasn't to the point of exploding. "
"But today, we sold so many down jackets. The warmth and benefits of the down jacket will definitely be spread by word of mouth and spread throughout the streets and alleys of Chang 'an. "
"In fact, the news will spread to the entire area around Chang 'an."
"Down jackets are not tea leaves, nor are they food. This down jacket is difficult to share. Everyone has to have one. You might even need more down jackets. "
Du Qi said, "So, as the word of mouth ferments, more people will inevitably buy down jackets. This is the possibility of a big explosion. So, you have to be prepared for more people to buy down jackets. "
"Only when down jackets reach a relatively saturated stage will the price begin to fall and then return to normal."
"After all, we are the dominant force now."
Du Qi said, "The business of a monopoly will inevitably be booming."
Fu Dacheng listened to Du Qi's words and carefully pondered.
It really made sense.
And Fu Dacheng believed in Du Qi's judgment.
Fu Dacheng said seriously, "Young Master, since there will be a few days of explosive growth, the goods we have stockpiled are definitely not enough. Even if we recruit more female workers to tailor and make, it will be difficult to meet the demand. This duck fluff can't keep up with the pace at all. "
Du Qi said seriously, "In addition to duck fluff, wool is also okay. After processing, wool can have the same effect as duck fluff, and it can also be incomparably warm. So, you can start making down jackets made of wool. As for the rest, you can try experimenting with them. In short, as a substitute for down jackets, cashmere jackets are also okay, and they are warmer. "
Fu Dacheng said, "Young Master, don't worry. I understand."
With a substitute, he didn't panic.
Moreover, with the precedent of processing duck fluff, Fu Dacheng wasn't worried about the processing of fur. He could continue to do it according to the book.
Fu Dacheng went on to talk about many other matters. If there were any doubts, he raised them one by one.
Du Qi solved them one by one.
As time passed, it was close to the end of the evening. Fu Dacheng finished and left.
Du Qi's mouth also curled into a smile.
An income of more than 120,000 strings of cash was a day's income. Such an income was simply terrifying. Of course, this was because they had just opened. After a while, it would be impossible for such a popular situation to occur.
It would be good to have an income of more than 10,000 strings of cash in a day.
Du Qi tidied up and prepared to sleep, but Liu Jian came and said, "Young Master, Zhang Jingping wants to see you."
"Come in!"
Du Qi ordered.
It was already so late, but Zhang Jingping still came to see him. It must be something important.
Liu Jian went to inform him. After a while, Zhang Jingping entered the room and bowed to Du Qi.
Du Qi said, "Did something happen for the Supreme Chief to come at night?"
Zhang Jingping said, "Young Master, there is indeed an important news that I must tell you immediately. My subordinates have found out that someone is inquiring about He Guocheng and He Mengyao. "
"Especially those under He Guocheng in North City. Many people are inquiring about them."
"I speculate that it is the East Palace."
Zhang Jingping said, "The East Palace found out that He Guocheng and He Mengyao disappeared for no reason and began to investigate the matter. There are even people inquiring about the situation of my security team. "
Du Qi said with a smile, "It seems that the East Palace is ready to take action. Supreme Chief, you have to be prepared for this matter. Especially if the East Palace wants to take action, it is most likely that they will accuse my uncle in front of all the civil and military officials during the imperial court assembly to kick off the prelude to this matter. At that time, the imperial court may summon you. "
Zhang Jingping said, "Don't worry, Young Master. I'm ready. Even if they want to interrogate me in the imperial court, I'm not afraid. Such a matter is no big deal. "
Du Qi said, "It's good that you're prepared."
Zhang Jingping changed the topic and continued, "Young Master, the effect in South City has already taken shape. Many people have gained the protection of the security team, and their business has improved and they're making more money. So much so that it has spread from South City to East City and West City. Many people are begging me to take money and to protect them. This business is really uninvited. "
Du Qi said with a smile, "This is also a good thing for you. The key is that you can't ruin your own reputation. Since it's a rule, it must be carried out according to the rules. Remember, you can't slap your own face and go against your principles. "
"Understood!"
Zhang Jingping nodded and replied.
Zhang Jingping said some other things and then took his leave.
Du Qi sat alone, thinking about Du Chuke's matter. What came next was another tough battle. However, the final result of this battle would be another crushing defeat for the East Palace.
