Chapter 183 Hypermarkets and Members

Suddenly hearing about the Golden Rose family from Tang En, Fiona's eyes immediately became very scary.

"The Foel family!?"

Tang En immediately understood what Fiona meant. He shook his head: "It's not what you think."

Fiona put down her pen and paper and looked directly at Tang En, waiting for him to continue.

"Did you know you had a godfather?"

"..."

As expected, Fiona was at a loss.

"All right."

Tang En sighed and said, "Your father, Edward, and Aubrey used to be friends..."

"This is impossible!"

Fiona categorically denied: "Although the Golden Rose family was famous before, it is still far behind the Foel family. How can the two of them be connected."

"You're too unsure of yourself... In fact, this is true."

After a pause, Tang En continued: "Moreover, Aubrey is still your godfather, and he was the one who baptized you."

Fiona looked blank: "Aubrey...is my godfather? Are you kidding me?"

"Of course I'm not kidding you, it's true."

"Then why didn't he save our family back then!"

Fiona became excited: "With the power of the Foel family, this is an easy thing, right!?"

"Fiona, you have lost your cool... You should know that factional struggle cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences."

Tang En shook his head: "He knew about the Golden Rose family, but he and Adrian were outside at that time and could not help your father at all. What's more, the noble faction wanted to deal with your family for more than a day or two. When Ober By the time I learned the news, it was already too late."

Fiona took a deep breath and tried to control her emotions. She clenched her fists tightly. The hatred that had disappeared was once again ignited, and dots of elemental light appeared around her.

"calm."

Tang En waved his hand gently, and the restless elements dissipated. He said: "With your intelligence, you should be able to understand. How could you survive such a tragedy when you were a child? How could you survive later? Are you going to live in Yalinks?"

Fiona was silent. Of course she had already noticed that someone was following and monitoring her. It was because she noticed that she later decided to escape from Alexis.

"If the people in Aubrey hadn't been secretly protecting you, how could you have been so safe all these years?"

Tang En patted Fiona on the shoulder: "Don't blame Aubrey, he has done his best."

"I see."

Fiona took a deep breath: "I won't blame him, and I have no right to blame him."

"That's right."

Tang En looked at Fiona with great relief: "Even if he is your father's friend, from the perspective of family interests, he does not have enough reasons to help you - but he later resolutely took action to save the You guys, he’s done a pretty good job.”

After Fiona's mood stabilized a bit, Tang En continued: "In addition, Oberry also told us about your enemy, who is from the aristocracy."

"The aristocratic faction..."

"The aristocratic faction is currently headed by the Spader family, which represents the interests of the traditional nobility within the empire and is fighting openly and secretly with the royal faction. The reason why the Golden Rose family is unlucky is because the Golden Rose family chose the royal faction, which made the aristocratic faction afraid. "

"The Spade Family!"

Fiona clenched her fists again. Finally, in addition to revitalizing the Golden Rose family, she had a new goal!

"Don't worry, sooner or later, you will have a chance for revenge."

Tang En held Fiona's fist and pressed it down: "But now, we still have to do it step by step."

"I see."

Seeing that Fiona's mood returned to normal, Tang En breathed a sigh of relief. Then he took out a pen and paper from the side and started drawing. What he drew was exactly the floor plan of the shop.

"This is the floor plan of that shop. Although it was once your family's property, I guess you are still young and may not know it, so you might as well take a look."

Tang En briefly explained, then looked at Fiona: "Do you have any ideas about this shop?"

Fiona pondered for a moment and said: "The area is very large. I don't know how our family used to manage it, but now for our Datang Chamber of Commerce, this is a good opportunity... There are four floors in total, but we Today’s products simply cannot use such a large area, which is a problem.”

"continue."

"If it were me, we would either expand our business scope and improve the types of products, or we would go the boutique route and concentrate on our own products. As for other places, we can divide them and use them as warehouses..."

Tang En burst out laughing. Although Fiona was a genius, she was still unable to break out of that circle due to the limitations of her vision and experience.

Fiona noticed Tang En's smile and said coquettishly, "What's wrong?"

"You are right, but the idea is still too conservative."

Tang En laughed and then told her his thoughts.

"Look, this is the area on the first floor. This is the entrance. We have divided it into several areas..."

While Tang En was explaining his ideas, he briefly explained the concept of hypermarkets on Earth to Fiona. As she listened, Fiona was attracted by Tang En's novel ideas. What kind of supermarket model? Self-selected, self-purchased, brand platform...these unheard of concepts opened the wings of her mind and gave her many fresh ideas immediately.

That's right, what Tang En envisioned was a hypermarket!

Do you have too few product categories? It’s not a problem. You can make the Datang Chamber of Commerce into a platform, and then sell other people’s products!

There are four floors in total. The utilization rate is too low?

It’s not a problem. We provide guests with an elevator as soon as they enter, and take them directly to the entrance of the hypermarket on the fourth floor, and then force them to walk from the fourth floor to the first floor before exiting...

Tang En has already had a deep understanding of the shamelessness of those hypermarkets on Earth. Even if you don't want to buy anything, once you go in and walk around, you will have a lot of things in your hands...

If you originally planned to go in and buy something for 100 yuan, you might end up spending 200 yuan when you come out. This is the invisible horror of hypermarkets!

In addition, there will be promotions and discounts during the holidays...oh hehehe...

Soon, the people of Purandhar will experience firsthand the horror of being dominated by hypermarkets...

The hypermarket will take out all the gold coins in their pockets without them knowing it, but what about Tang En? Then they will sit back and reap the rewards, waiting for them to shout "Shut up and take my money!" while handing over the gold coins...

After listening to Tang En's explanation, Fiona's eyes were bright, and she said with a look of amazement: "The idea you mentioned is simply a genius idea! I am sure that the Datang Department Store you mentioned will become a brand new business in the future. model!"

Tang En laughed proudly.

"But, Lord, you seem to have overlooked an important factor."

The smile on Tang En's face froze.

Fiona said with a strange look on her face: "Although it is true that merchants adhere to the method of small profits but quick turnover, more than 90% of the empire's wealth is in the hands of the nobles. You shouldn't be unaware, right?"

"this……"

"Yes, your department store concept is epoch-making, but...if people don't have much money in their hands, how many people are willing to go to department stores to spend money?"

Cold sweat broke out on Tang En's forehead.

Fiona spread her hands: "Let me tell you clearly, even if you sell a thousand pieces of soap to a thousand civilians, the profit is not as much as the profit of selling an air conditioner to a noble... What's more, in Yalink In a place like this, the cost of doing business for nobles is much lower than promoting soap among common people."

Fiona shook her head: "So, your idea is only applicable when people are very wealthy, and now the effect is only average."

"Then let's try another method?"

Tang En was embarrassed. He didn't expect that the idea he finally came up with could not be used...

The hypermarket model that has taken so long to develop on earth is actually despised by the natives of Purandar. This is really embarrassing!

"No, Lord, the model you mentioned is very good and we can use it, but it needs to be slightly changed."

Fiona stared at the drawing, then pointed to an area on the first floor and said, "Lord, I suggest that this area on the first floor be drawn separately."

"oh?"

"What do the nobles need? What they need is to be different. Entering the hypermarket to buy things with the common people? It is an insult to them, so we have to separate these two types of customers in advance."

Fiona talked eloquently: "Common customers can freely choose goods after entering the store, while aristocratic customers do not need to enter. They can come directly to this area. It is set up as a reception area exclusively for aristocratic customers. In addition, there is a dedicated person in charge." How do you feel about the reception?”

Tang En looked at Fiona in astonishment. Is this girl really a native of Purandal? This brain is spinning so fast!

"Lord Lord?"

"Yes, what you said is very good, so let's do it."

Tang En smiled: "Moreover, your plan coincides with an idea I had before and can fit together perfectly."

"Oh? What do you think?"

"this."

Tang En took out a stack of crystal cards.

"What is this? It shouldn't be a crystal card from Star Diamond Bank, right?"

"Of course not, this is an idea that suddenly occurred to me."

Tang En said shamelessly: "The graded membership system. I think under this system, the loyalty of our noble guests will be greatly increased, and they will rush to send us gold coins..."

Fiona was stunned: "Grade membership system... what is that?"

"Simply speaking, it is equivalent to a membership of Glory. Only by having a membership can you purchase some rare things, such as armors and weapons produced by dwarves, specialty crafts from the elven kingdom, etc..."

Tang En smiled very strangely: "And the level of membership is also very simple... just top up money. The more QBs you charge, the stronger you will be... Ah! What I mean is, the more gold coins you consume, the higher the level of your membership will be. The higher..."
