4 Berta's doubts

Of course, Han Huaiyi must bring other brothers with him when it comes to this kind of serious matter.

So he immediately called Ford and others, and officially took out the concept of large chains such as Auchan, Carrefour, and Metro.

And it makes sense for him to take out these things at this moment.

Because Shanghai was too small, there were no other places within the Qing court that had this condition.

At most, he will make some "comprehensive hypermarkets" such as large world belt shopping malls, which seem to be chains but are actually independent.

But the United States in this era is perfectly fine.

Because the United States has had an extensive rail network since the middle of the 19th century.

In addition, the agricultural and handicraft systems in the United States are also quite mature.

At this moment, the United States is in the international arena like China, the world's factory, and IMM shipping continues to ship American processed products to the most economically developed European region.

In addition, although the economy of the United States is in a depression at the moment, there is a strange phenomenon, that is, the number of cars is increasing.

It has become much easier for people to get around.

So in such an America, now is the right time to start the chain model.

So after Han Huaiyi first explained from logistics, material distribution and other aspects, he took out a pen and paper to draw the pattern of the supermarket chain.

"We had to start this project in New York, Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco, Los Angeles, 7-10 other big cities at the same time."

"Based on the well-developed railway network, large warehouses for stockpiling materials by category will be set up along the line."

"Set up a fleet, or sign an agreement with a freight company to send goods to designated city stations on time and by carriage, and then send them to designated supermarkets."

"Our goods have to be negotiated with local people, and we win by volume, so we have to be cheap, and some things can even be negotiated directly with manufacturers and farms, but the supplier must be a mature organization, not a scattered handicraft workshop."

"Large supermarket with children's playground, cinema, café, bookstore. Forming a culture. ”

"Customers push this kind of shopping cart into the supermarket, pick up any items at will, and check out at the counter, but before they check out, they can see how much they are buying through the label on the goods."

"Customers can also exchange for preferential products in designated places with shopping invoices, which can be provided by merchants for free, which is the advertising link of merchants."

"I'll talk about the variety of goods, including furniture, plants, clothes, basic food, fresh food, hardware, and even bedding, maintenance tools, in short, everything."

"You can think about it, once such a large supermarket is opened, will it be able to cover the daily consumption of residents in the city."

"In addition, cities will gradually get bigger, and in order to protect the interests of investment, we should limit the range of people's normal living radius."

"In addition, we have to establish our supermarket brand while building a precedent, and later we can open agents in other cities, so that other businessmen can pay money according to our model, and we are responsible for formulating standards, unified supply and supervision, and extracting a certain management fee."

"Don't underestimate this thing, once this thing is opened, it will also promote the rise of a new industry."

"I call it courier, for example, when I am in San Francisco, I want to send a beautiful wardrobe to Jason's wife in New York. This thing is only available in San Francisco, and of course it doesn't matter if we use a car to deliver it, but most people don't have this ability, so our business opportunities will come... ”

Henry was a distinguished businessman.

When he heard this, he immediately asked two questions.

First he said, "Why are you sending a wardrobe to Jason's wife, you're doing it again." ”

While everyone was laughing and crying, Ford seriously asked the second question: "How can the people of New York know the styles of San Francisco in time?" ”

Han Huaiyi had a plan for this.

He said: "The Hearst Newspaper Group pays a national merchandise guide newspaper, or weekly newspaper, with photographs of the size and prices of excellent products from all over the country, which is distributed free of charge to residents, but later merchants have to pay for their goods to be known to the whole country. ”

"According to their favorites, the people called the headquarters to place orders."

"The headquarters is assigned to the merchants, and the merchants deliver the goods through the railway network logistics express company. Stations in each city are equipped with couriers to deliver the goods directly to the customer. ”

Ford asked, "How much does it cost?" Press the piece? ”

"Yes, per piece. Timely delivery and promise the customer how many days it will arrive. ”

"How do customers pay for it?"

"Morgan's bank branch accepts this kind of business, and after the customer makes a phone call and pays the fee, Morgan's branch office and distribution headquarters determine the order number, and the headquarters calls the merchant. After the goods arrive at the customer and are checked for correctness, and the customer signs and accepts them, the distribution department and the Morgan branch office confirm that the Morgan bank immediately pays the merchant. ”

"If there is a problem with the quality or if it is in transit... Ford asked.

"The quality of the goods is the merchant's pot, and the customer refuses to sign when he sees the defect of the goods, so the merchant has to bear the cost, and the branch office will seize the other party's goods. At this stage, no one will buy less than the shipping value. ”

Han Huaiyi continued: "If there is a problem with transportation, we will bear it. Of course, we have to buy insurance. ”

Han Huaiyi, who has seen the express logistics industry and Alipay and other financial systems in the future, easily took out the general structure and regulations relatively clearly.

Tom practiced his pen frantically.

After he had written three pieces of paper, Han Huaiyi asked everyone: "If this proposal is possible, we will further discuss it, and start with the basic material rationing, as well as the warehouse and logistics system, and then start a trial run with our friends a few times, and then invest in the supermarkets that are blooming everywhere." What do you think? ”

His plan is well structured, and he has a solid plan for the steps.

Besides, all of you here are real businessmen, and they have their own mature operation team.

Naturally, everyone completely agrees.

As the head of the military-industrial complex, Berta even felt that if such a supermarket opened, it would greatly improve the country's material rationing methods.

Of course, this kind of ascension refers to the elevation of civil power.

Because it will definitely be too direct and convenient for the military to do things.

However, the increase in civilian material delivery capacity will be a powerful complement to the military's logistical rationing.

Thinking of this, Berta couldn't help but secretly admire that Han Huaiyi's ability to make PTR was not a fluke.

And then comes the question.

Berta was supposed to give this thing as a gift to her godson, but now it has become such a situation.

Naturally, she insisted on what she had asserted.
