Chapter 934 Luoyang City is full of treasures (4)

Li Mengxi still couldn't find the crystal utensils he was longing for, even after searching everywhere.

Li Mengxi thought, just look for it for another day, forget it if you can't find it.

Wandering around the streets, Li Mengxi suddenly heard the restlessness of the people around him. Li Mengxi was looking through masks in front of a mask stall. He was looking at the old man setting up the stall. He was wondering whether he should paint this beautiful old man who painted ghost masks.

He was being recruited away, and when he heard the commotion, he followed the sound.

Turning around, I saw a group of huge, hairy things coming along the street.

Zhou Cang and others behind him were still discussing what this thing was, (fuck...a camel!) Li Mengxi recognized it at a glance.

Li Mengxi was surprised and curious that Luoyang City would see a camel team.

It's normal to think about it. The Han Dynasty opened the Silk Road, had trade with the Western Regions, and had camel caravans. It's normal to think about it.

Seeing a camel caravan means that there may be goods from the Western Regions and there may be needed crystals.

Li Mengxi quickly led people to greet him.

Unfortunately, the caravan was indeed a camel caravan, but the caravan was already empty. Everything was sold in Chang'an, leaving only an empty camel caravan.

Although the camel team was empty, Li Mengxi fell in love with other people's camels, so he paid a large price to buy them.

It just so happened that the leader of the caravan returned to Luoyang and didn't want to do anything anymore, so he easily got rid of the camel.

Li Mengxi's purpose in buying camels was firstly to raise one or two for fun, and secondly because camels are rare in the Central Plains and may have special medicinal value. It would be good to buy them back for research purposes. If not, they can be bought back.

To increase the knowledge of children, thirdly, considering the grandiose goal, if one day we unified the world and want to send troops to expand the territory further west, we have to go to the desert to go west, and march in the desert to get a lot of camels. If we wait for something

It's too late to get camels at the end of the day, so you might as well make preparations early.

Camels can be bought, and Zhou Cang and others are very curious about camels.

Zhou Cang saw that the camel was unusually tall, so Zhou Cang, a rough man, asked if he could ride the camel.

"Of course! Camels can carry a thousand pounds, which is amazing." Li Mengxi said. After saying that, he realized, Oh, by the way, camels have good transportation capabilities, and they are still useful tools.

As for whether camels are adapted to the climate of the Central Plains, they probably are. Li Mengxi recalled that when he was a child, during the Chinese New Year, someone would pull a colorfully dressed camel to the village. Taking a photo with the camel cost five yuan or ten.

Yuan, it was winter, and the camels were fine. There was nothing wrong with them. Camels could withstand the cold winter in the Central Plains, and survival in the Central Plains was no problem at all.

In one fell swoop, he bought a total of thirty-five camels, big and small. After taking the camels back, it was hard for the shopkeeper and the shopkeepers to suffer.

In the past few days, Li Mengxi has hired too many people and bought too many things. Today he bought another Luo Duan, and the store is overwhelmed.

At night, while eating, Li Mengxi felt that he had almost gathered the manpower and bought almost all the things. He wanted to leave soon, so he casually asked about the sales situation of the goods.

The shopkeeper said that in the past few days, there have been many places selling paper in Luoyang City. Many officials have sold out the paper and sent people to ask when the goods will be available and want to continue wholesale.

This was expected by Li Mengxi. Luoyang's demand for paper was not generally large.

Speaking of weapons, Li Mengxi brought fifty-handled long knives. The blade of these fifty-handled long swords covered with steel is ten feet long. With the handles, it is one foot, five or six feet long. The steel-clad technology has the advantage of making long weapons.

The purpose of making the knife to such a terrifying level, to a length that even long knives cannot be used, is to overwhelm others with skill.

The fifty-foot-long knives are not just commodities, but more like advertisements. Use these fifty-handled knives to advertise and create the effect that Julu Merchant's weapons are superior to those in Luoyang. Then we will see how much profit there is.

It is necessary to sell weapons.

The shopkeeper reported that fifty long knives were sold out in one day, with an average price of 270,000 yuan per sword.

Li Mengxi was shocked. This was 270,000 yuan, that is, 270 coins. This was nearly a hundred times the profit, a huge profit, absolutely a huge profit!

Li Mengxi had a plan. The long sword had such huge profits that he could sell it.

Others, since the quantity of spirits was not large, they were given away but not sold. The sales of medicines were very good. When it came to pencils, the shopkeeper hesitated. The sales volume of pencils was not high, but he sold dozens of them.

Li Mengxi doesn't think it's a problem with the quality of the pencil. Pencils are easy to use for writing. He thinks it's a problem with usage habits. People tend to use brushes for writing and don't accept pencils very well.

In other words, usage habits have not been developed.

Putting pencils and paper together will produce a sales effect of one plus one greater than two. Paper is cheap enough, as cheap as one penny a piece. However, many people will still be reluctant to buy it, but adding pencils is different.

, a pencil can be written on and erased, and if you buy a good piece of paper and use it sparingly, you can write dozens of times and still use it.

This is actually a price trap. Businessmen often have such sales tactics. Businessmen sell water dispensers very cheaply. When people see how cheap they are, they all buy water dispensers. As long as the water dispensers are bought back, they have to keep buying them.

His bucket buys his water.

The same is true for the combination of paper and pencil. Paper is very cheap. The pencil can be erased and written. You can use a piece of paper as a dozen sheets. People think it is cheap, but they still have to buy pencils. The paper can be erased and written.

It can be erased and reused, but the pencil will become less useful if you write more.

In the combination of paper and pencils, pencils have become consumables, and the main sales volume is pencils. Although selling pencils will cause the demand for paper to decrease, the profits of pencils are actually about the same as the profits of paper. Moreover, because

Pencils have greatly expanded the number of people buying paper, which is equivalent to increasing overall profits in disguise.

The combination of pencil, paper and eraser is a strong competitor compared to brushes and inks. In terms of cost performance, mastery, and writing convenience, pencils win. However, the prerequisite for big sales is that the people must first be willing to do so.

Use a pencil.

A new item with good value for money will be slowly accepted by people, but the most important thing is to accept it slowly. Li Mengxi knows very well that nowadays, the world of Han Dynasty is in shaky state, and the days of making stable money are only a few years, and there is not so much time.

Waiting for usage habits to slowly develop, it is necessary to speed up the process.

Li Mengxi thought of advertising.

When advertising, you need to find celebrities. The more famous the person, the better.

The most famous person in Luoyang City is undoubtedly Han Ling Emperor, followed by another person, the great scholar Cai Yong.

Coincidentally, Jian Yong has a friendship with Cai Yong. Jian Yong's friendship is also a friendship with Julu Merchant. They can make use of it, Li Mengxi thought thoughtfully.
