"Boss!"
Xu Jie's heart skipped a beat when he heard the alliance of the three families. This time, the situation of Village Mo was much more dangerous than the one he had faced in the past.
"Don't worry. It's not surprising that there are imitations!" Morton shook his head. Although this replica had appeared a little earlier, it wasn't a disaster that could wipe them out.
"But young master! It's an alliance of three families! "Xu Jie said.
"So what?" Meton said proudly. As long as it was a fair competition, Village Mo was not afraid of anyone.
"Increase the number of boutiques of Village Mo immediately. Every product of Village Mo must be based on evidence to establish the brand awareness of Village Mo," Merton said.
"Brand?" Xu Jie was confused.
Mo Dun smiled and explained, "A brand is like a person's name. Every time I want the people of the Tang Empire to think of the Mo Family's products when they mention the Mo Family's Village. When they mention the frying pan of the Mo Family's Village, they will think of its sturdiness and durability, high quality and low price. When they mention the four-wheeled carriage of the Mo Family's Village, they will think of its luxury, elegance and comfort. Everyone who owns the products of the Mo Family will feel proud.
Xu Jie seemed to understand something and said, "Village Mo's products must be the best."
"That's right!" Meton nodded.
A good brand could not only make Village Mo's products invincible, but also benefit the image of Village Mo.
Also, did Gongshu Family know what the Three Guarantees policy was? Did they know what the after-sales service was? In fact, the crisis this time was already predestined. Even without the Gongshu Family, there would still be the Gongsun Family, the Gongyang Family … Perhaps the early appearance of the Gongshu Family was another opportunity for the Mo Family's village.
In the carpentry workshop in the East Market of Chang 'an City.
"Gongshu Family's craftsmanship is really unique!"
Zhangsun Chong looked at the row of imitations of iron frying pans and four-wheeled carriages in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.
Wang Zhe also showed a satisfied smile. The more imitations of Gongshu Family, the greater the loss of Village Mo.
"You flatter us, Young Master. The Gongshu Family's achievements are all thanks to your support," Gongshu Hong said with a smile.
Take the new wok as an example. The wok made by the Gongshu Family was not as good as the one made by the Mo Family. If the Zhangsun Family had not supplied the steel at cost price, the Gongshu Family would have lost all their money.
"Have you solved the problem of the four-wheeled carriage's anti-shock system?" Zhangsun Chong asked.
The iron pot was just a small matter. What really caught Zhangsun Chong's attention was the four-wheeled carriage in front of him. In just half a month, the four-wheeled carriage of the Mo Family Village had earned 100,000 strings of cash! It shocked Chang 'an City. Even though Zhangsun Chong was a descendant of an aristocratic family, he had never seen such a huge fortune.
One hundred thousand strings of string of cash. Even after deducting the cost, it was still a huge profit. Zhangsun Chong could not help but be tempted. Even Wang Zhe was envious.
Gongshu Hong said awkwardly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Young Master Zhangsun. The shock absorbers and brakes are easy to imitate, but what really troubles the Gongshu family is the materials used to make them!"
"Materials?" Wang Zhe frowned.
Gongshu Hong nodded and said, "The shock absorbers and brakes made by the Mo Family Village are all made of special steel. They are very hard and not deformed. This is something the Gongshu family can't make."
Especially the shock absorbers. Gongshu Hong had thought of using ordinary iron to replace the shock absorbers, but there was no elasticity at all. If he used too much force, the shock absorbers would break soon.
"What about the four-wheeled carriage? It doesn't need shock absorbers, does it?" Wang Zhe asked eagerly.
Gongshu Hong still shook his head and said, "Young Master, although the four-wheeled truck used for transporting goods does not need a shock absorber, the huge cargo capacity has higher requirements for the axles and wheels. Of course, ordinary wooden wheels cannot support such a heavy load."
Zhangsun Chong frowned and said, "Then how did the Mo Family Village make the wheels?"
"Young Master Zhangsun, please look!" Gongshu Hong waved his hand, and Gongshu Lun walked over with a wheel. The wheel was made of metal, hollow in the middle, and had several huge steel spokes. The whole wheel was a whole.
"All-iron wheel!" Zhangsun Chong exclaimed.
Gongshu Hong shook his head and said, "It should be an all-iron wheel, and it is very hard and wide. With four wheels, the load can reach more than five thousand pounds."
Suddenly, Gongshu Hong thought of something, and turned to Wang Zhe and said quickly, "Young Master Wang, the four-wheeled carriage copied by the Gongshu family last time, although it looks similar to the one in the Mo Family Village, it can only carry three thousand pounds at most. If it is too heavy, it will be damaged easily. You must tell us when you sell it."
Wang Zhe felt guilty, but his eyes flickered and he said, "Don't worry! Our four-wheeled carriage is cheap, so it's reasonable that it can carry less cargo. "
In fact, Wang Zhe made a lot of money by taking advantage of the craze of the carriage in the Mo Family Village. How could he tell the buyer the shortcomings?
As for the debt, who dared to make trouble in the Taiyuan Wang Family?
Although Gongshu Hong was still worried, after all, the Wang Family was the Gongshu family's financial backer, so he wouldn't interfere directly. He had to remind Wang Zhe again.
"If the Gongshu family also has steel, I'm sure they can make a carriage as good as the one in the Gongshu family."
"Brother Zhangsun! Do you have any channels to get some steel? "Wang Zhe looked at Zhangsun Chong and asked.
Gongshu Hong's eyes were full of hope. The Gongshu family controlled a large amount of iron trade, so it was the most likely place to get steel.
"Steel?"
Zhangsun Chong shook his head. If it was not a lot of steel, Zhangsun Chong could get it. But obviously, the amount of steel needed to make a carriage was not small.
Steel had always been a country's treasure, especially the military, which had a high demand for steel. The steel that could be sold to the people was very rare, and it was very expensive. Even if they could get steel, the loss would outweigh the gain.
"For the time being, we can use ordinary iron. It's not a problem if it's not good or the cargo is small. As long as the price is good, people will buy it!" Wang Zhe said. He had been in the business for a long time, so he knew people's hearts well.
"Just remember, it must be similar to the one in the Mo Family Village. If we sell one more carriage, the Mo Family Village will sell one less carriage." Zhangsun Chong said with a sinister smile.
"Of course! But I heard that the Mo Family Village imports a large amount of iron from the Zhangsun family, and the number is increasing day by day. Brother Zhangsun, shouldn't you do something? "Wang Zhe said.
"Of course! Iron is a country's treasure. How can we only supply it to the Mo Family? "Zhangsun Chong said naturally.
The Tang dynasty produced 1,000 tons of iron every year, and the Mo Family Village had used 10 tons in half a month, which was almost one percent of the annual iron production. He didn't feel any pressure to restrict the Mo Family's iron consumption.
