Chapter 482 Who is your wife?
Tong Huaqiong held the silver in her hand and smiled from ear to ear.
Jufulai has been a great success in Pingchuan County and the same is true in Yanguan Town.
Although the supermarket in Yanguan Town is not as big as that in Pingchuan County, its revenue is still considerable.
In the near future, Tong Huaqiong can rely on Jufulai to march into Fucheng and Shengjing.
Compared with Jufulai, Wu Ji is not as good as expected.
If you reduce the price significantly, customers will come.
Once prices recover, customers head straight for Jufulai.
Going down one day and up the next has become Wu Ji’s style.
Gu Youtian was very depressed. He felt that it was all because of Gu Ruinian's blind advice, and he disliked Gu Ruinian more and more.
Gu Ruinian felt aggrieved, thinking that Gu Youtian was too conservative and unwilling to make up his mind to engage in a price war. Such rising and falling prices would further affect Wu Ji's business.
Wu Ren has nothing to say. He is happy when business is good and he looks unhappy when business is bad.
Fortunately, the shop does not require rent, and Gu Youtian has kept the purchase price to the lowest, so he was able to maintain his profits despite the pressure from Jufulai and price cuts.
It would be fine if it was my own shop, but if it was divided between two families, it wouldn't be very good.
Wu Ren asked Gu Youtian to come up with a set of rules. Facing Jufulai's powerful advantage, Gu Youtian had no better solution and could only take one step at a time and think of countermeasures slowly.
The shop has already been opened and cannot be closed. He cannot break up with Gu Youtian for the time being. Wu Ren can only wait patiently for Gu Youtian's solution.
Gu Ruinian repeatedly came up with evil ideas to bribe the government to deal with Jufulai, but when he thought of Tong Huaqiong being a local lady and the fact that the county magistrate's mother came in person to support Jufulai, he gave up the idea.
He was still unwilling to let Jufulai take away his business, and wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge.
If Jufulai's reputation collapses, he will adopt Jufulai's supermarket model, and then all the customers in Pingchuan County will be his.
Tong Huaqiong didn't pay attention to Wu Ji, but news about Wu Ji reached her ears from time to time through Nie Xiaofeng's mouth. After she learned about Wu Ji's predicament, she couldn't help laughing.
How shameless of Wu Ji to use Ju Fu as its competitor.
The price war must have been Gu Ruinian's idea. Her fellow villager only learned the basics of price war and knew nothing about the overall operation of a shop.
Does he think that future price wars will be as simple as simply lowering prices?
In later generations, there were price wars among certain groups and finally no competitors. How did Wu Ji defeat all its competitors?
Especially for department stores and supermarkets, engaging in price wars is a bad idea. There is not only one department store in Pingchuan County. If you lower the price today, you can retain customers, but if you raise the price tomorrow, customers will naturally be unwilling to come. It’s not like they can’t buy things elsewhere.
Even if there is a supermarket in the future that amazes the whole nation, it does not rely on defeating other supermarkets with extremely low prices, but wins by excellent quality and thoughtful service.
Wu Ji took the wrong approach from the beginning.
Even if Jufulai attracts a large number of customers, Wu Ji can still operate the restaurant based on its own quality if it can stay calm. Even if it cannot become the largest in Pingchuan County, profits can be guaranteed.
Tong Huaqiong does not regard Wu Ji as a competitor, but Wu Ji blames Jufulai for stealing its customers.
Tong Huaqiong did not dare to take Wu Ji lightly, so she asked Nie Xiaofeng and Su Chengmin to keep a close eye on Wu Ji to prevent them from doing anything bad.
During these days in Pingchuan County, Tong Huaqiong planned to return to Qinghewan after the supermarket business was completely stabilized. After all, she still had a lot of things to do with the pig farm and cotton fields.
After being busy with the opening preparations for these days, everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Liu Yue'e thought she was a great hero, so she told Tong Huaqiong that she wanted to visit Pingchuan County.
Tong Huaqiong agreed.
Anyway, all the shop assistants are here, and nothing will go wrong if everyone takes turns to rest.
"Pandi, you should go for a walk too." Tong Huaqiong said to Tong Pandi, "I brought a letter to your Aunt Hong. She will come to the county tomorrow with your Aunt Zhao and Hua Erduoer. You will be able to see your daughter tomorrow. Let's go back together after we are done with this busy period."
Since arriving in Qinghewan, Tong Pandi has made great contributions to the development of the pig farm. Now, whether it is raising pigs or selling pigs to collect debts, Tong Pandi can handle it.
Coming to Pingchuan County was her first time leaving Qinghe Bay after her divorce. Tong Huaqiong knew that she missed her daughters, so she asked Hong to bring their two daughters to Pingchuan County for two days.
However, before her daughter came, Tong Huaqiong hoped that Tong Pandi could take a good walk and relax.
Tong Pandi smiled gratefully at his aunt and agreed readily.
She really wanted to take a good look around Pingchuan County.
After all, Tong Pandi has never gone shopping properly since he was a child.
She planned to buy some things for Huaerduoer, then exchange the money she saved into gold, and she also wanted to buy a shop for Huaerduoer to rely on in the future.
She hasn't told her aunt about buying the shop yet. She plans to look around on her own first, and when she has a good idea, she will ask her aunt to help her make a decision.
Originally, Tong Pandi wanted to go shopping with Gu Taohua, but Gu Taohua couldn't leave temporarily, so Tong Pandi had to go shopping with Liu Yue'e.
Liu Yue'e was selfish. She wanted to buy some good things for herself and was afraid that Tong Pan'di would gossip about her to her mother-in-law. So she found an excuse to get rid of Tong Pan'di as soon as she left Jufulai.
Tong Pandi wished that Liu Yue'e would get rid of her. Everyone in her aunt's family was nice to her, except Liu Yue'e, who was always hostile to her. She felt uncomfortable when being with Liu Yue'e.
"Miss."
After turning a street and arriving at the largest jewelry store in Pingchuan County, Tong Pandi wanted to go up to get Huaer a set of headwear, but was stopped by someone.
The person who stopped him was his ex-husband Wu Musheng.
When Tong Pandi heard the word "wife", he felt extremely disgusted.
"Who are you calling? We have already divorced, so who is your wife?" Tong Pandi said righteously.
"Miss."
Wu Musheng looked Tong Pandidi up and down.
Tong Pandi was wearing a light blue dress, which made her look even fairer and more attractive; her hair was tied up in a high bun, with a few strands of hair scattered around her slender neck, which tickled Wu Musheng's heart.
Wu Musheng had an urge to marry Tong Pandi again.
"Go away."
Tong Panddi didn't want to get entangled with Wu Musheng, so he turned sideways and was about to leave.
"My dear, I know you are still angry with me. I have changed. As long as you are willing to come back and live a good life with me, I promise not to hit you and treat you well in the future." Wu Musheng said with a shameless face, pulling Tong Pandi's sleeve.
Tong Pandi felt a chill.
When Wu Musheng fell in love with her at Black Dragon Pond, he used this kind of persistent method to harass her.
Now he is going to use this trick again.
"A dog will always eat shit. How dare you ask me to go back with you?"
Wu Musheng is so shameless that he didn't even ask about his two daughters' situation and just came up to harass her.
Does he think Tong Pandyi is the Tong Pandyi from his previous life?
Tong Pandi sneered and grasped a hairpin in her hand. If Wu Musheng used force, she would stab him to death.
Wu Musheng ran out of patience, put away his smile, and said, "You are a divorced slut, who would want you? Only I am willing to let you go back without any hesitation, don't be so shameless."
Wu Musheng recalled Gu Honglian's evaluation of Tong Pandyi that day, saying that Tong Pandyi dressed up seductively in Qinghe Bay and many students in the village were interested in her.
Who would want a divorced woman? Tong Pandi must have fallen in love with some young man and that’s why she doesn’t want to go back to the Wu family.
