The Mo Family's continued popularity in Mechanical City finally stopped the three years of business war between the Mo Family and the aristocratic families. The business world of Chang 'an City finally regained its long-lost peace.
They thought that they would no longer have to live in the cracks after the business world calmed down. However, the merchants of Chang 'an City sadly found that the business environment did not improve at all. In the three years of business war, the aristocratic families took the largest share of the market. The Mo Family Village overcame many difficulties and finally held on to the market. The ones that were really hurt were the ordinary workshops, whose market share was very small.
The fire at the city gate also affected the fish in the moat. The first and second brothers fought, and the third and fourth brothers suffered. Many workshops were already operating at a loss. It was already difficult for them to hold on until now.
However, none of this could affect the good mood of the head of the Zheng family. As the business war calmed down, many goods, regardless of whether it was the Mo Family or the aristocratic families, tacitly returned to their normal prices. The aristocratic families, who had a large share of the market, could be said to be making a lot of money every day. This made the head of the Zheng family very proud.
"Just as father expected! Mo Jiazi is quite sensible. "Zheng Chang said in admiration.
Just as the head of the Zheng family predicted, as the business war calmed down, the Mo Family also slowly lowered their defensive posture. Even the goods that the Mo Family deliberately targeted at the aristocratic families in Mechanical City returned to their normal prices. This made Zheng Chang even more proud. He thought that Mo Jiazi was secretly glad that he could protect himself and did not dare to deliberately provoke the aristocratic families.
"Of course. In terms of business, Mo Jiazi may have some tricks. However, when it comes to controlling people's hearts, no one is better than the Old Man in the world."
The head of the Zheng family could not help but smile proudly. In his heart, the aristocratic families had always been superior. Now that they took the initiative to stop, it could be said that they had temporarily let the Mo Family off. Mo Jiazi could not wait to secretly rejoice. Why would he take the initiative to provoke the aristocratic families again?
"Old Master, Young Master, bad news! Mo Jiazi, he … "Suddenly, Uncle Zheng walked over in a panic with a thick stack of ink magazines in his hand.
"Mo Jiazi! What does Mo Jiazi want now? "The head of the Zheng family frowned and said unhappily.
Uncle Zheng was sweating profusely but could not say anything. He handed over the thick stack of ink magazines in his hand and said, "Old Master, you will know when you see it."
"Mo Magazine!" The patriarch of the Zheng clan reached out to take this issue of the magazine. He couldn't help but feel his hand sink. Only then did he realize that this issue of the magazine was exceptionally thick.
Zheng Chang scoffed. "If Mo Jiazi wants to advertise, there's no need for so many pages! Such a prodigal! I'm afraid we won't even be able to recoup the cost of such a thick ink magazine. "
"Mo Magazine doesn't rely on subscriptions to make money. It relies on advertisements," the head of the Zheng family said disapprovingly.
However, when he opened the magazine, he couldn't help but be stunned. The first half of the magazine was still normal news, but at the back, there were hundreds of advertisements.
"Mo Jiazi is crazy about money. He actually printed so many advertisements." This time, even the head of the Zheng Clan could not help but exclaim.
"Mo Jiazi is destroying his own great wall! With so many advertisements, is Mo Jiazi trying to ruin the magazine? " Zheng Chang was overjoyed when he saw this. He thought that Mo Jiazi had made a foolish move. No one was willing to read advertisements. Mo Jiazi forcefully used half of the pages to advertise. It was simply insane.
Uncle Zheng smiled bitterly. "Old Master, Young Master, Mo Jiazi is not doing this to advertise, but to sell the goods in these advertisements."
"Sell these goods? To whom? "The Zheng father and son were stunned and puzzled.
Uncle Zheng said anxiously, "Of course it's to sell to the people who read the newspaper. The Mo family has already cooperated with the Crown Prince. Every page of the newspaper has a postcard. If you want the goods published in the newspaper, write down the goods you want to buy on the postcard. Cut it out and send it to the courier station to be mailed to the Mo family's mechanical city. After the Mo family's mechanical city receives the postcard, the goods will be packed up and sent to the people. The people will be able to buy the goods from the Mo family's mechanical city at a reasonable price without leaving their homes."
(Mail order is the first time the author has done online shopping. Back then, he was crazy about Celestial Bane in school and couldn't borrow the last few volumes. He couldn't wait any longer, so he transferred money to the local post office and sent a letter. Ten days later, he received the brand new Celestial Bane. The author can be considered one of the oldest losers. He accidentally exposed his age.)
"You can buy things without leaving your home." The head of the Zheng Clan was stunned.
"What a joke. Who doesn't try things before buying? Mo Jiazi actually wants the people to buy things just by looking at the advertisement. That's just wishful thinking." Zheng Chang snorted as if he had heard an unbelievable joke.
According to the normal logic, anyone who bought something would look at it again and again, try it again and again, and compare the goods from one shop to another. However, Mo Jiazi actually wanted them to buy things just by looking at a magazine. That was just a fool's dream.
"What if the goods are cheap enough? What if the Mo Family is the guarantor? "The head of the Zheng Clan gasped when he saw the low prices of the goods in the magazine.
This kind of sales didn't require shops or workers. Naturally, the cost was greatly reduced. Even if the price was lowered, there was still enough profit margin. Compared to the prices of the goods in these workshops, the workshops of the aristocratic families had no advantage at all.
Uncle Zheng said with a wry smile, "Master, you're right. Except for a part of the goods sold in the Mo Family's Village, most of the goods sold in the Mo Family's Magazine are from ordinary workshops. These workshops have difficulties in running their business. Now, in order to survive, they are willing to sell at any cost, even if the profit is extremely low. What's more, the Mo Family also purchases in large quantities.
"Small profits but quick turnover!" The head of the Zheng Clan raised his head with some difficulty. He had used this method to deal with Mo Jiazi before, but he didn't expect Mo Jiazi to use this method against them so quickly.
Uncle Zheng nodded and said, "You're wise, Head!"
"How do we pay for goods bought at the post office?" Zheng Chang asked curiously.
Uncle Zheng said, "The post office collects the goods. If the people want to buy something, they have to pay the post office together with the money and postcard."
"What if the quality of the goods isn't good enough and it spoils after a few days?" The head of the Zheng Clan frowned and asked a crucial question. If there was a problem with the goods sold in a normal shop, they could go to the shop to repair it. However, there was no shop at all for the goods bought in the magazine. If they bought in other counties, they couldn't go to the Mo Family Machinery City to return the goods.
A trace of shock appeared on Uncle Zheng's face as he said, "All goods bought in the magazine will be returned within seven days without any reason. They will only be replaced within three months and not repaired! These expenses will be paid by the Mo Family Village. "
The head of the Zheng Clan couldn't help but be shocked. The after-sales service promised by Mo Jiazi could be said to be extremely harsh. It directly improved on the foundation of the Mo Family Village's three-guarantee service. The price and after-sales service were far more attractive than buying in a shop.
"In my opinion, Father, you don't have to worry. Mo Jiazi's mail-order goods are just whimsical. Everyone in the world believes that you pay for the goods and receive the goods. However, Mo Jiazi wants the people to pay before receiving the goods. They can't even inspect the goods before seeing them. I don't think many people in the world are willing to take this risk," Zheng Chang said disapprovingly.
The head of the Zheng Clan nodded and said, "The mail-order goods are just a novelty. Now that the Dao Test is running, there won't be any problems in the short term. What really worries the Old Man is the Crown Prince and the post office!"
"The Crown Prince and the post office!" Zheng Chang looked at his father in confusion.
