Ganyu has been the secretary for 3,700 years. The fact that secretaries are always changing is no joke. What kind of situation has she not seen?

"Regarding the issues raised by you, Lord Ningguang specifically asked Secretary Baixiao to tell you a few words."

"Oh? What are you talking about?"

When they heard that it was Ningguang, they became more excited.

Maybe it’s a compensation plan for them?

They still have great confidence in Ningguang's abilities.

Ganyu took a deep breath.

"Lady Ningguang asked me to tell you guys not to keep focusing on the daily necessities of life. If something goes wrong in Liyue Harbor, no one will be honored."

Chapter 62 A clever name

The largest and most fundamental consumer goods in Liyue Harbor are the necessities of life.

Rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, in short, the most fundamental and basic areas of food, clothing, housing and transportation, these are exactly the areas they control.

This is also the area where they plan to raise prices and reap the benefits in order to make up for the shortfall.

After all, people can live without eating out, listening to operas or reading books, but can they also live without rice, oil, salt, and cooking with firewood?

Now a "price limit order" has been issued, with special emphasis on these daily necessities.

Isn't that decent?

Is this... threatening them?

The atmosphere in Ganyu's office suddenly became cold.

The people from the eight major families all looked unhappy.

Their interests suffered losses, and they came to seek an explanation, but they were threatened???

"Ugh."

Ganyu sighed.

She knew that these businessmen would have such expressions.

She has seen a lot in the past three thousand years.

"I'm not done yet."

Ganyu spoke before they could.

“Lady Ningguang said that the people of Liyue Harbor now have more money and a higher spending power.

There will definitely be a lot of people starting to try things they have never experienced before.

You can take this opportunity to let these people develop new habits and spend more money in more places. It is always better to make small profits but quick turnover than to focus on those necessities of life.

At least it looks more elegant.”

Ganyu conveyed Ningguang's original words in full.

"Sigh~"

The people from the eight major families took a deep breath. (Liyue Harbor temperature +1)

Ningguang was a warning to them in the beginning, and later on she pointed out a new path for them.

This is for them to seize the opportunity and break into some new territory.

Let them empty other people's wallets from more directions.

When they heard this, they began to think about the recent changes in Liyue Harbor.

The most obvious thing is the increase in consumption of people in Liyue Harbor, which has driven the commercial development of the entire Liyue Harbor.

Many stores in Liyue Harbor are out of stock, and restaurants are packed every day.

The scene of all things competing and full of vitality is still before our eyes.

Liyue Harbor has a culture of saving, but saving does not mean not spending.

Very few people save for the sake of saving. More people will consume to improve their living conditions when their savings meet certain expectations.

Take the current booming consumption situation for example.

From this perspective, Ningguang's intention is to let them seize the market of these improved consumption, develop this new market, and make back the lost money in this new market.

But they were not happy with it.

It's not as direct as directly controlling the daily necessities of life like rice, oil and salt when doing all these fancy things!

“People in Liyue have just seen their incomes rise, and their understanding of improving their lives is still rudimentary, and they lack the corresponding channels.

Many people's idea about this is to buy two more good clothes, go to restaurants twice more, eat two more good meals, and if they have more money, buy some good tea.

In fact, there are still many areas to be developed. For example, Mr. Yun’s opera performances have been sold out recently. People who cannot buy tickets with seats are even willing to stand and listen to the whole show.

For example, some parents begin to pay attention to their children's education after their income increases.

For example, a small number of workers who have been promoted during the holidays have begun planning to travel and enjoy the scenery, and the tourism industry also needs to be developed.

The market in these areas in Liyue is still almost blank, and how much you can take in depends entirely on your ability."

Based on her own observations and understanding, Ganyu began to give her own explanation to the merchants who came to protest.

A whale falls and everything comes into being.

The eight major families' income and control over daily necessities have declined. As people's income has increased, spending on daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea has decreased. In addition to savings, the freed-up income has also begun to flow into other areas.

At this moment in Liyue Harbor, one can truly describe the world as a place where everything is flourishing and full of vitality.

But this answer still couldn't satisfy them.

"Lord Ganyu, we all understand the truth, but to open up new markets, we also need manpower. The current labor cost is so high, and with the 'price increase limit order' in place, we can't make up for it no matter how many new markets we open up."

One of them pointed out a loophole.

"You worry too much. The 'price increase limit order' is for products that have already existed in the past and will limit their future price increases. For some products that have not existed in the past, there will naturally be no price increase.

Moreover, the "price limit order" mainly limits the price of goods. For products that are difficult to quantify, such as services, we cannot impose too much restrictions. "

Yup!

We were so busy discussing the attitude issues of the Seven Stars that we forgot the limitations of the "price increase limit order" itself.

They did not come here simply to protest the "price limit order". If that were the case, they have plenty of ways to get around it.

For example, for the same batch of rice, they could add a fine packaging and make some random pretense to double the price. They have done this before.

In short, there are many ways.

What they came to protest was the attitude of Seven Stars behind the "price limit order".

It is easy to bypass the "price limit order" on paper, but things will be difficult if you offend the Seven Stars.

Now, Qixing’s attitude has become clear.

Don’t even think about raising the prices of basic items, even if you come up with excuses, because the Seven Stars will be keeping an eye on you.

But they can develop some improvement consumption,

For example, they opened a new theater to satisfy the peasants' desire to listen to operas, and they did something to raise the prices from the original level.

If a play used to cost 5,000 Mora, now it costs 7,000 Mora.

The reason is that the environment for listening to opera has been improved and service expenses have been increased, although in reality only one more glass of water may have been given to each person.

For example, when opening up a new tourist route, they can find an excuse, such as the area is dangerous and needs escort, or the need for a gold medal guide, and charge more fees.

Moreover, it is possible to secretly create some public opinion atmosphere and make some expenses that are expensive, unnecessary, but make people feel necessary.

Once people's consumption habits are cultivated and their tastes are developed, who knows, not only can the losses be made up, but also a part of the savings of the people in Liyue Port can be taken out.

Chapter 63: There is no winner in the internal circulation, it hurts here!

Ganyu's words could almost be considered explicit.

People who came to protest no longer bothered about this issue.

After a few polite words, they left.

After leaving Yuehaiting, in fact, these families had already reached a peace agreement.

Being able to unite and come to Yuehai Pavilion to protest is in itself a tacit understanding between Yanhe.

They can no longer invest without restraint.

The series of actions performed by the Seven Stars clearly showed their intention to brake.

Before they separated, they revealed to each other which direction each company was going to develop.

Afterwards, the few companies that had calmed down began to recalculate their input-output.

This time, the new revenue calculation method is taken into account.

After getting the data, they were surprised to find that these fancy things that they looked down upon, when added together, seemed to bring in quite a lot of profits?

In the end, after weighing the pros and cons of all parties, several companies developed their own launch plan.

In any case, this upper limit is their limit.

Otherwise you will really lose money.

Huh?

They suddenly felt something was wrong.

We have been bidding repeatedly and the prices have been rising steadily, but the final ranking will still be determined based on the strength of several companies.

There is no difference at all from the previous rankings that each company came up with based on their own "best value for money options".

Now, although each company’s investment has increased significantly, the final ranking has not changed, and the market share they can take up has not changed.

If everyone is invested, it means that no one is invested.

But their Mora is definitely gone.

When they thought of this, their breathing slowed down.

There are no winners in the internal circulation!

Oh, you can’t say that either.

At this time in Liyue Harbor, salaries kept rising, and finally reached their limit.

The workers in Liyue Harbor expressed their regrets about this, but they also made a lot of money with such a large salary increase, and their lives were prosperous, so they could be considered satisfied.

——At least the workers in Liyue Harbor won.

When they thought of this, not only did their breathing slow down, they even felt a slight pain in their hearts and their vision went dark.

It’s more painful to see these peasants making money than to see them losing money!

Some small chambers of commerce or shop owners finally breathed a sigh of relief when they knew about this.

Finally it’s not rising anymore.

These small business owners have also begun to simply calculate their own income and expenditure based on the recent increase in customer flow.

Those who can do it will continue to do it, and those who can't will have to find another way out.

Fortunately, the current salary and benefits in Liyue Port have increased significantly. Even if you can no longer run your own shop or small guild, working somewhere else is also a good choice.

In addition, there is another special person who has both joy and troubles in the turmoil in Liyue Harbor.

"From a general perspective, it is a good thing that the quality of life of the people in Liyue Harbor has improved, and I should be happy about it.

——It would be more pleasant if they could be quieter while listening to the opera. "

A guest from the Wangsheng Hall who did not want to reveal his name made a sharp comment.

There is still a long way to go before the quality of the people in Liyue Port can be improved.

It’s better not to go to the opera for the time being. It’s better to go find A Ping and walk the bird together.
