In the plum room.
This is the largest private room in Yunshui Inn. It has dried plum blossom branches and simulated embroidered plum blossoms, which is very elegant.
There were twenty-eight people sitting in the private room, each with a cup of tea in front of them, but no one could calm down because there were too many competitors in front of them.
Soap is something that you can tell by just listening to it is of the highest quality.
Not to mention, the popularity of this thing has opened up. Now almost everyone knows that soap is stronger and better than bath beans.
As long as there is supply, it will be sold out quickly in the store. This is a business that is sure to make money without losing money.
But if there are too many people selling soap, you may not be able to make money...
Everyone ignored the pleasantries and drank tea and stared at the door.
Under the spotlight, the person in charge finally appeared.
Cheng Wanwan went to a ready-made clothing store to buy some better clothes and put them on. She put a green hairpin on her head and Shi Shiran walked in.
Everyone who came here knew that the person in charge was a woman, about thirty years old. This image matched what they had heard, so everyone stood up and greeted her.
"My husband's surname is Zhao, just call me Sister-in-law Zhao." Cheng Wanwan smiled and sat down, "Don't be so polite, everyone, please sit down."
As soon as she started to speak, Shopkeeper Zhai of Zhuo Muzhai was suddenly stunned. This woman seemed familiar!
Er Shuanzi, who was standing behind him, whispered: "Shopkeeper, she, she is the woman who came to the shop yesterday to buy toothbrushes and tooth powder, but then ran away because she couldn't afford it..."
Shopkeeper Zhai vaguely remembered that yesterday this woman seemed to want to talk to him in private about something... No, it couldn't be about soap... If that was the case, wouldn't he...
Shopkeeper Zhai couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with difficulty: "It turns out to be Sister-in-law Zhao. I was really too busy yesterday and neglected Sister-in-law Zhao. Please forgive me... What Sister-in-law Zhao wanted to talk about yesterday, why not Shall we talk again today?”
The faces of everyone in the room showed surprise.
This unattractive shopkeeper actually knows this woman. So do they still have a chance to buy soap?
Cheng Wanwan smiled lightly: "I came here just to talk about this matter with you."
Shopkeeper Zhai couldn't hold back the smile on his face. It turned out that yesterday was really about soap business.
He actually shut out the lucrative business that could have been an exclusive monopoly!
What a fool he is!
"I think everyone gathered here because they heard about soap." Cheng Wanwan said with a light smile on his face, "Dear owners and shopkeepers, you can take a look at the goods."
Zhao Ergou placed three soaps on the table.
"This is an unscented soap with no additives. It is suitable for washing clothes and costs 200 yuan." She introduced, "It has a milky and honey scent. After adding such expensive things, it is best to use it for bathing and cleansing. , and has a nourishing effect, so the price is also more expensive, 800 yuan."
There were three or four pieces of each soap left, and everyone took turns watching.
Zhao Dawang also prepared water very thoughtfully, and some attentive people rolled up their sleeves and washed their hands with soap.
Only after you use it yourself will you know how extraordinary soap is.
It is not much inferior to bath beans, but it is more durable and cheaper than bath beans. This is enough to make people excited.
Before Cheng Wanwan opened his mouth to promote his products, everyone present was already captured by the soap.
"The price is okay. I need one thousand yuan for each of these three items." An older man spoke first, "I can settle the money on the spot."
Others spoke quickly, fearing that they would be lost if they spoke too late.
"I want three hundred dollars each!"
"I'm starting a small business, so I need a hundred yuan each first!"
"Everyone, please be quiet." Cheng Wanwan raised her hand and pressed it, "This thing takes a certain amount of time to produce. The few remaining in the warehouse have just been sold out. There is currently no stock, only pre-orders are accepted, and, You need to arrange someone to pick up the goods yourself. The distance to Nanyang is quite far, and it takes about a day and a night by water. If you can accept it, you can stay. If you can't accept it, you can leave now."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other.
Not having the goods in stock means that you have to wait. If you wait for business matters, it will easily go wrong.
No one present spoke.
Cheng Wanwan took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Please make a decision as soon as possible. Those who leave can continue to cooperate in the future. Those who stay can only follow my rules for the time being."
These words sounded domineering, but the warm smile on her face did not sound like this person was difficult to get along with.
Some stores are relatively small and those who cannot pick up goods remotely can only quit with regret.
In the end, there were seventeen people left.
Cheng Wanwan then said: "To make a reservation, you need to pay a 5% deposit first, and pick up the goods in the order of the deposit. The pick-up time will be written on the pick-up order. The goods can be picked up after a minimum of three days, and the longest... it may take One month.”
The people present looked at each other.
Generally speaking, the reservation payment is 15% or 20% of the total price. The purpose is to prevent the orderer from regretting it and losing all the goods.
Cheng Wanwan was obviously not afraid of getting hurt, and he only accepted a 5% deposit, which was quite sincere.
But they were still a little worried. This woman was not from Nanyang City. What if the money ran away?
Although five percent of the payment is not much, it would be embarrassing to tell someone that he was defrauded of a sum of money due to his own negligence.
"My pass, household registration and other things will be registered with the Nanyang government. If I take the money and run away, everyone can report it to the government." She said with a smile, "Those who are interested in booking, please line up here."
After she finished speaking, she placed the pass and household registration certificate on the table, allowing everyone to inspect them.
Her frank attitude, coupled with her calm and unhurried expression, naturally gained the trust of most people.
The man who was the first to place a reservation came over and stood in line: "Three types of soap, each worth one thousand."
Zhao Ergou is responsible for recording the predetermined quantity and issuing a delivery voucher. This voucher needs to be stamped and has the four characters "Dahe Zhaoshi" engraved by Mr. Zhao. It also has a unique mesh pattern designed to prevent counterfeiting. You can't see it unless you look carefully. Come out: "May I ask your name?"
The man said: "The surname is Bai, Bai Qi, Bai's trading company in Wancheng."
He came to Nanyang City with all the money he could withdraw to look for business opportunities. He stayed there for half a month without any clue, until today, he heard about soap.
A voice in his heart told him that he must seize this opportunity! This must be his chance! He trusts his own intuition and his own vision!
Zhao Dawang is responsible for calculating the accounts. He will carefully calculate how much deposit has been collected and how much is missing: "The total is one thousand eight hundred taels of silver, and the deposit is ninety taels of silver."
Bai Qi took out a one hundred tael silver note and handed it over, and Zhao Dawang gave ten taels of silver in change.
Zhao Ergou handed over the voucher: "Sign here."
Bai Qi picked up the brush and wrote his name.
Finally, Zhao Ergou stamped the receipt, and the receipt was complete. It had the specific address of Dahe Village on it, and two routes to Dahe Village were written on the back. Both water and land routes were available. The deadline was written at the bottom. If the time If you don't come to pick up the goods when you arrive, the pick-up voucher will be invalid and the deposit will not be refunded.
This person ordered 3,000 pieces of soap. According to the current progress of the workshop, it will take at least a month to produce them.
Unless Cheng Wanwan plans to expand the workshop, recruit more workers, and increase the daily output to 1,000, otherwise the order will not be placed until next year.
After all the reservations were made, Zhao Ergou calculated that the unscented soap was 10,000 yuan, the honey-scented soap was 5,000 yuan, and the milk-scented soap was 5,000 yuan.
The total payment for the goods was ten thousand taels of silver, and the deposit alone was as much as five hundred taels of silver.
Zhao Ergou and Zhao Dawang were stunned.
