Chapter 248 The reaction of the Norman family 4000+)
"A wine wooden box engraved with Basel-style patterns?"
Upon hearing this, the merchants present were delighted at first, but then many people showed a slight unnatural look.
"Isn't this... this imitating their approach?"
A businessman with iron head hesitated for a moment, then spoke out.
"The pattern engraved on the wine wooden box I ordered was a scenic spot in the Kingdom of Basel. It is completely different from the pattern of the monsters drawn on the wine wooden box of Moore Wine Industry. Besides... even if it is plagiarism, what can you do? If you think it is inappropriate, then you just quit!"
Harley Santa Cruz snorted coldly.
Hearing this, the businessman who had doubts before remained silent.
Although this approach seems not very good, at least it gives them hope to recover the market. As long as the gold coins lost before can be returned to their own hands, no matter what method they use.
"I wonder what cooperation is the cooperation method Mr. Harlem mentioned?" a businessman asked with interest.
"First of all, everyone's struggle and price competition must stop immediately. We must unify the front and face the low-altitude wines sold by the Norman family." Harley Santa Cruz emphasized.
Previously, because the low-alcohol wines sold by Norman Family were very popular, these wine merchants had to attract more customers by lowering prices, but such measures were effective.
After all... most people who can afford wine are good people.
Not only did it fail to have any substantial impact on the Norman family's wine sales, it instead caused their own profits to shrink sharply, causing these original wine merchants in the Kingdom of Basel to be seriously inclined.
Upon hearing this, the merchants present couldn't help but nod.
Since we want to form an alliance, we naturally cannot suppress each other in this way.
"Since last month, Elny Mfira and I have recruited a large number of people and specially produced a large number of wine wooden boxes, which can be sold to everyone to package their own products, but..."
Harley Santa Cruz changed his tone and said, "After all, engraving patterns on wooden boxes will add a little cost out of thin air, so the price of these wooden boxes is not low."
"I don't know how much it costs?" someone asked.
Harley Santa Cruz offered a price, and then everyone present looked different because... the price was indeed a bit high...
Harley Santa Cruz had expected this scene before him.
However, engraving patterns on the wooden box undoubtedly requires recruiting a large number of people. Even if the people at the bottom are oppressed to the extreme, they will definitely consume a lot of money and food.
In fact, Harley Santa Cruzburn didn't want to bring this group of vendors to play with, but what he and Elny Mfira were most worried about was that when their actions began, these other traders would become unstable factors and hinder their wine sales.
Halle Santa Cruz and Elny Mfila are indeed the largest wine merchants in the Kingdom of Basel, but their sphere of influence is mainly located in the southern part of the Kingdom of Basel, so they are also a little afraid of the mixed city of Basel.
After all, the Norman family is under the protection of Queen Alanna and is the most famous shop in the Kingdom of Basel today. So... if we cannot pull a few nobles into the water and share the pressure, Harley Santa Cruz will be a little reluctant.
"Since the two of you spend a lot of money, we naturally can't make a profit in vain, so I paid the money!"
Finally, a businessman gritted his teeth and said.
If the wine sales are still bleak after buying the wooden box, he will naturally lose all his money. However, when he thinks that the Norman family's wine sales are very popular, he is moved.
Seeing the nobles present expressing their opinions, Harley Santa Cruz couldn't help but smile.
The joining of every businessman represents the support of a noble, so...
"Also... to ensure that the wine sales we wait for will not cause too much trouble, I plan to negotiate with the Norman Family to get them to remove the wine sales counter of Moore Wine Industry!"
finally……
After Halle Santa Cruz, Elny Mfila also said sinisterly.
What?!
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked.
In fact, this idea is indeed good, because according to the information they obtained, Moore Wine Industry is a business traveler from the Norman Empire after all. In the eyes of these Basel merchants, it is precisely because of the strong influence and appeal of the Norman family with rose essential oil that these wines belonging to Moore Wine Industry can be widely popular among the nobles and have a hot sale.
Once the Norman family no longer purchases low-alcohol wine from Moore Wine Industry and sells it...will all the difficulties be solved?
But...how easy is this?
Not to mention that behind the Norman family is Queen Alanna and Harlem, it is unlikely that any store will give up a hot product under the current situation for no reason.
so……
The merchants present all looked at Elny Mfira's performance with XX-like eyes.
"Don't forget, we now have this kind of wine wooden box with different patterns, so... this thing was indeed impossible to succeed in the past, but it is possible now."
"Although the royal family is majestic, it must also take into account us and the nobles behind us! Since the Norman family now has an option that can replace Moore's wine industry, as long as we can explain the interests and induce them, even Queen Alanna must make concessions in time!"
As soon as the words came, the merchants present were stunned at first, and then they couldn't help but reveal quite excited eyes.
Because the method Elny Mfira said... seems to be feasible!
...
Things went as expected by Elny Mfira and Halle Santa Cruz.
When a large number of wine merchants in the Kingdom of Basel gradually showed dissatisfaction and spread some rumors into the palace through the noble master behind him, Queen Alanna finally summoned Cario again.
"I haven't seen each other for several months, and His Majesty the Queen is becoming more and more radiant!"
Cario lowered his head slightly and complimented quite docilely.
This is not entirely flattery, because this young queen is indeed fair-skinned and beautiful, and has a beautiful appearance, which is very consistent with the aesthetic concepts of this era.
"Is the Norman family's business easy? It should have made a lot of money, right?" Queen Alanna asked softly.
This is the preparation.
"Report to His Majesty, although the sales of rose essential oil are extremely short, the Norman family has always adhered to the consistent price and principles, so they don't make much money." Cario answered lightly.
“Where is the wine?”
"After all, just helping people sell, I made a little profit, but it's not worth mentioning."
"In fact, the southern part of the Kingdom of Basel is also a good wine production area, and it has always been loved by nobles. I like the grapes in southern Basel very much. Not only does it taste delicious, but the wines produced are also very sweet." Queen Alanna said with some slight meaning.
This is knocking, which means that since it is for making money, the Norman family should not always focus on the wine from the Norman Empire to sell it, and should also help the nobles of their own.
Cario's expression was stunned at first, then he showed a sudden enlightenment.
"The Norman family has today's momentum thanks to the care of His Majesty. Since His Majesty likes it, the villain naturally needs to take care of the wines of our Kingdom of Basel."
"That's good, Valy Haring did not read the wrong person," Queen Alanna praised.
Outside the palace.
Cario calmly crawled into his carriage and said, "As we had expected before, seeing our wines sold well, the nobles of the Kingdom of Basel were jealous."
"What does the queen say?"
"She said she wanted to pay more attention to the wines in southern Basel," said Cario.
"The sale of wine is a huge income. The southern nobles are quite powerful in the Kingdom of Basel, so it is naturally impossible to give up the entire market just like this. It would be a good result to have the best-selling in the previous few months."
In the carriage, Julian Heaton comforted him.
"I naturally know this. The queen must consider the reactions of other nobles. After all, we are just under the banner of the Harlem family, so... the queen cannot lose her sense of responsibility for the benefit of a mere wine." Cario said.
"I guess there will be merchants under the southern nobles who will come to find you soon. At that time, you should try to delay it as much as possible. In short... According to the command of the Count, you should be more confused and difficult to give up, but you should also let the people on the other side understand that as long as the price is right, you can make concessions and everything can be negotiated." Julian Heaton said seriously.
"What does Lord Earl mean?" Cario asked hurriedly.
"The Earl said that true and false, false, false, and true, the connection between Idal and here must be hidden, so... we should try our best to push all of these on the Moore Wine Industry, so that the Norman family will always be marked with traces of the Harlem family and will be protected by Queen Alanna."
"In the future, everything about Moore Wine Industry will be left to me to handle. Try to divide the relationship between Moore Wine Industry and the Norman Family clearly. You only need to handle the Norman Family and the Idal Chamber of Commerce well."
Although there are still many things to ask, Cario nodded and said nothing.
The name Julian Heaton, Cario had heard of it before.
He is a native of Idal and the manager of Moore Wine Industry promoted by Bruno. Although he just arrived in the Kingdom of Basel this month, he suddenly became the general manager of Moore Wine Industry in the Kingdom of Basel, which shows Bruno's trust in him.
The two of them didn't have much interaction before, but... looking at Julian Heaton's confident look, Cario felt at ease.
When Cario thought of the economic way written by Lord Earl, he felt his heart burning.
Just don't know...
What method will Lord Earl use to solve the current dilemma of Moore Wine Industry...
Harley Santa Cruz came to the Norman family the next evening.
Although he had always gritted his teeth for the Norman family, standing in front of the Norman family, Harley Santa Cruz had to exclaim sincerely.
Because just watching from the street, the Norman family's storefront makes people feel majestic, not only extravagant, but also stands out in front of the small shops around.
Taking a deep breath, Harley Santa Cruz pushed open the door to the Norman family.
The wind chime inside the door made a crisp sound, and a shopping guide from the Norman family hurried over and said, "Sorry, the Norman family has closed down today."
Although the shopping guide who came to me was not very bright and charming, both the face and the clothing looked particularly clean, making people feel like spring breeze.
"I'll come to the person in charge of you here," Halle added: "As for wine, there's a business to be discussed."
"You sit in the lounge first and browse casually. I'll ask now."
Harley nodded while looking at the shop with his scrutiny eyes.
Most of the sold coral jewelry and wooden furniture in the first floor lobby are coral jewelry and wooden furniture. In less than a year, the Norman family's grading standards and color judgment methods of corals have almost become the common standard in the entire Kingdom of Basel.
This also made the Norman family almost the only place in the Kingdom of Basel where the nobles could buy coral jewelry with peace of mind.
After all... if you go to other stores, the price of coral is determined almost entirely by the eyes of the previous company, but why is it worth such a price, but there is no clear value judgment standard.
But in the Norman family, even the sales staff can tell you very well how the price of each item is determined.
For example, how to rated the color of this coral bracelet and where there are flaws, all deductions and bonus points can be clearly arranged for customers for people to choose from.
What are Aka Red, Sardin Red, Deep Water Red... Unconsciously, these fresh words from the Norman family have long been well known by Harley Santa Cruz.
Harley had no intention of enjoying the fruit placed in front of him, and his eyes swept across the first floor hall of the Norman family.
