Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

Luo Yu finished explaining the library plan in one breath and handed the written business plan to the princess for her review.

As the princess listened, her eyes became brighter and brighter.

She was just worrying about business matters, so she might as well listen to this white lady and see what she thinks. If the answer satisfies her, the cooperation can be concluded immediately.

"Miss Bai, do you know what kind of business this princess is mainly engaged in?"

"I've learned recently that the princess mainly runs a cloth shop, a teahouse, a jade shop, as well as several pawnshops and restaurants in Liangzhou City."

"It seems you understand quite well and have put a lot of thought into this. Do you know why this princess sighed? In fact, these shops have always had good business. Because of His Royal Highness Prince Rui's status, the Guan and Bai families basically won't open similar shops near my shop to conflict with me.

But I just looked at the bills for the past six months and found that the profits of the stores run by our Ruiwangfu have dropped by 30% compared with the second half of last year.

I've heard from shop owners that the Bai family has now started to openly steal my business, even slashing prices by 10% on all similar businesses. This is truly outrageous."

"Why is the Bai family so bold? Is there some powerful figure backing him up?"

The princess looked at her suspiciously. Wasn't she a member of the Bai family? Was she asking even though she knew the answer?

Luo Yu immediately told the princess about how he and his mother had been framed, and also said that the eldest branch of the Bai family had become independent and had completely separated from the Bai family of Muzhou.

When Princess Rui heard this, she thought it was no wonder that the woman bought that building on Fenghuang Street. She was really reckless in her pursuit of revenge.

But this library is really not profitable, and the Bai family simply disdains it.

I wonder how she will take revenge?

"The Bai family's backer is the Anguo Mansion, and the Anguo Duke of the Anguo Mansion is the father of the current Empress."

"I go!"

Why did she come to the Queen again? Although she had never met her, she seemed to have a close relationship with the Queen.

As Concubine Ying, she has an inseparable relationship with her, and even as Miss Bai, she still can't get rid of her.

"what are you going to do?"

"No, Princess, this is my catchphrase, please don't be offended."

"Let's get back to business. How do you plan to cooperate with my Rui Wang Mansion to fight the Bai family? You must know that half of the profits from the Bai family's business are sent directly to the palace. If we affect the Bai family's profits, I'm afraid they will get some money from the Queen. If His Majesty finds out, it will only harm our Rui Wang Mansion and not benefit us."

"Then we will do the opposite."

"How to say?"

"Wouldn't it be fine if His Royal Highness Prince Rui presented a portion of the profits directly to His Majesty?"

"That makes sense!" The princess perked up immediately. "Then Miss Bai, please tell me, how are you going to make a profit with me?"

“I want to build a good library, first of all, to gain popularity, and then in one go, let the students in Liangzhou City and all the counties, towns and villages give our library constant praise, thereby increasing a certain amount of traffic.

Then we launched a membership system and opened a jointly-branded chess and card shop. This chess and card shop @%%&:)&... (10,000 words omitted) has a great function. It is full of new ways to play. No matter men, women, young or old, no matter how much money they bring into our shop, they will leave that much money in our pockets.

We also need to increase publicity. The Fang Group and Rui Wangfu have a cooperative alliance. All members will have an exclusive brand, which we will register according to their names and surnames. Every member can enjoy a 20% discount when they go to all the stores we cooperate with. By the way, the details of this discount will be discussed later.

If you reach a certain amount, you can also earn points to redeem any gift, thereby attracting customers to our shop to spend money."

"Miss Bai, how come you're so smart? But what if the Bai Mansion also imitates our business model?"

"Princess, you're truly someone who can draw inferences from one instance. I've already thought of this. All of our chess and card game projects must not be leaked to anyone else. It's best to have someone check in and out. Of course, there's no need to worry if they can memorize them. Our game rules will be updated frequently, and there are many ways to play. I'll write them all down for you, Princess.

With the income from the chess and card room, this membership is meaningful. As long as you spend a certain amount of money, you can play all the games in the chess and card room for free for a whole day without any charge. If you win, you can take the winnings away, and there is no charge for losses.

We'll order some high-end luxury brands, focusing on building brand awareness. Quality is secondary; the main thing is rarity. Once we have a certain foot traffic, Princess, you can open a chain of stores in various industries, so that people will know it's our shop as soon as they see the sign."

"It's a good idea, but the library isn't profitable, and it's located on Fenghuang Street. Will it bring traffic to the Bai family's shops?"

"Princess Rui, you are truly extremely clever. You quickly got to the most important point. You are indeed a king with a business acumen."

The princess looked at the young white girl and saw how she praised her like an older sister treating her younger brother or sister.

Forget it, this girl is really interesting and doesn't care about other people's doubts about her. People like her are broad-minded and suitable for cooperation.

"Then what are you going to do?"

“I have my own serialized writing style.

Those who come to borrow books for free are generally poor people who cannot afford the luxury shops of the Bai family in Fenghuang Street.

The library also has a floor dedicated to selling new books. The books on this floor are naturally our latest books. Not only are they expensive, they cannot be borrowed casually. Of course, if you want to read them, you can still read them for free on this floor of the library.

However, the next volume we publish will first be put on the shelves of other stores and will not be returned to the library until a month later."

The princess stood up suddenly. Although she had not read the serialized books, with Miss Bai's brain, she should not come up with something meaningless.

"Miss Bai truly possesses an extraordinary business acumen, truly impressing this princess. However, this library will likely be difficult to complete in a short period of time. Simply let me know what manpower you need, and you can dispatch any of my personnel at your convenience."

"Thank you, Princess. My chess and card shop needs some help. Also, I hope more people can help write for my storybook."

"What's so difficult about that? Come on, I'll take you to see King Rui. He happens to have a bunch of freeloaders, so it's time to put them to work."

Since it is a serialized series, I am not worried about them leaking it, because I will follow every issue anyway.

However, Luo Yu knew that he could not stay for too long, so he and Qin Bingrui could only write everything that needed to be written in advance, and then give it to the princess and uncle for safekeeping.

As for when the model matures, I believe the Princess of Switzerland will have her own way of running it.

The most important thing now is to build a bookshop that can print books using movable type printing, so as to ensure the acceleration of the publication of various books.

These people can only find people who have signed death contracts inside the palace.

The Fang family had few capable people, so if they wanted to set out on their journey, they had to follow behind the Rui Wang Palace. If the princess didn't want to take the Fang family with her in the future, Luo Yu would have to leave them a magical weapon that would allow them to survive.
