This bundled sales model was indeed thought up by Liu Ruolan.
She was also inspired by the gift box, so she arranged it like this.
There is a beautiful little bamboo basket with flowers tied with a red rope. It looks festive at first sight, and the number of eggs is also for auspiciousness. The New Year is just for joy.
As a result, the salted duck eggs that were originally saved in the thousands were sold out the year before.
Of course, there are also unopened salted duck eggs, there are hundreds of them, but they cannot be opened until February.
Even Xie Xiuwen had to give a thumbs up to this method of selling things one after another.
"Madam has a business acumen. It seems that just running a shop is a bit of an understatement."
Faced with her husband's teasing, Liu Ruolan naturally punched him lightly with her small fist.
"Husband, please don't laugh at me. I only got the idea after seeing the gift box method that Guaibao came up with. Fortunately, this method is not bad. But Guaibao is the smartest and bought so many duck eggs for pickling in advance. , just like this, our salted duck eggs will have to be out of stock for a month before we can replenish them."
Xie Xiuwen raised his eyebrows. He had eaten the salted duck eggs several times. It was indeed better than what he had eaten before. It was not only salty, but also fragrant. There was also an indescribable taste that seemed to have a hint of wine. exist.
The most important thing is that several of his dishes are oily, and it is difficult for ordinary people to pickle salted duck eggs like this.
"There should be these gift boxes included in the festive gifts from Duke Guo's Mansion and Marquis Weixin's Mansion, right?"
"I have them all. I sent people to deliver the annual gifts for Mr. Wang and Mr. Xie's family, including a gift box of braised vegetables, a gift box of salted duck eggs, and the live chickens and ducks sent by Zhuangzi. Two of each.”
This gift is enough. After all, Xie Xiuwen is only a sixth-grade editor now, his position is not high, and his salary is also displayed here. No one can fault the annual gift of ten taels of silver.
"Master Wang's house has prepared everything from Master Zheng's house before. Their two houses have a large population, so these gift boxes are in even numbers. Please prepare six chickens and ducks each. In addition, prepare some of the things we saved before. Send the pears over. The gifts from Weixinhou Mansion and Dingguo Duke Mansion are also prepared according to this standard."
If she had given such a generous gift in the past, Liu Ruolan would definitely feel distressed. After all, this heavy gift cost thirty or forty taels of silver.
Now Liu Ruolan no longer feels bad. When she has money, she likes to let her husband spend it as much as possible!
Although they said they were the same gift, Xie Xiuwen actually gave Zhao Yue two supplements separately, both of which he bought in a shop outside.
Who is Zhao Yue? There is no need for him to explain, the people around him come to report.
"The gifts Mr. Xie gave to Duke Ding's Mansion, the Prince's Mansion, and the Zheng Mansion were all the same. On the surface, they looked the same as ours. It's just that ours had two more boxes, and I heard that they were given by Mr. Xie himself. I went shopping outside.”
Although Zhao Yue likes Xie Rongzhao, he is still a powerful man at heart. This secret way of flattering people makes him feel even more comfortable.
"Well, Xie Xiuwen is a good person. Put everything away and report it to Madam, so that she knows that our relationship with the Xie family is different."
"What you are saying is that Mr. Xie is actually superfluous. He received letters from the Xie family twice in a row just for our wife. Anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that the Xie family is closer to the master."
Zhao Yue didn't show it on his face, but he was very happy in his heart: "You are the only one who talks too much, go and do your errands!"
"Yes, please excuse me."
Zhao Yue really likes Xie Rongzhao, but this does not prevent him from enjoying the feeling of being supported by Xie Xiuwen.
Zhao Yue felt that Xie Xiuwen was a smart man, aware of current affairs, good at conduct, and able to speak well in front of the emperor. His future future was limitless.
If you make good friends now, you will definitely not suffer in the future.
Of course, if possible, Zhao Yue really wanted to abduct Guabao into his own home to be his daughter-in-law.
However, given the boring temperament of the eldest son, it would be difficult to please Guabao. However, Erlang Aheng seems to be very good at making Guabao happy. I don’t know if Guabao would mind marrying someone younger than him in the future.
Zhao Yue was in a good mood that day, so he told Mr. Gao his thoughts.
Gao was stunned at first. It was one thing for her to like Guobao, but it was another thing for her to get married.
Moreover, she didn't think that her parents-in-law would allow a girl from the Xie family to come in. After all, Xie Xiuwen's family had no foundation and their background was somewhat inferior.
"The children are still young, so you must not say this to them. Now that the children are young, it is a time of innocence and sincerity. Wouldn't it be better to let them spend their childhood carefree? You Don’t have any plans inside, or it will harm your children in the future.”
This is the Gao family. No one else would dare to talk to Zhao Yue like this.
"Well, yes, the child is still young. Let's see. I really like Guabao. Tsk, but it's a pity. Guabao has a fiancé, and Xie Xiuwen still values that kid very much. Let's see. It doesn’t look pleasing to the eye.”
Gao Shi smiled, who is Guabao's biological father?
However, Mrs. Gao realized that Guabao has a fiancé. As long as nothing happens, it is impossible for her to have a relationship with another man in the future.
On the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, Master Wu and his men escorted several young masters back to Beijing. At the same time, there were several carts of firewood from the Song family and some output from Zhuangzi.
Xiangxiang Braised Restaurant finally sold out its last inventory on the 27th and closed down.
After working for more than ten days in a row, everyone is exhausted.
Liu Ruolan took the initiative and rewarded everyone with a braised chicken and a braised duck, and at the same time gave each of them rewards.
Several children of the Fang family were brought to the mansion to celebrate the New Year. The shopkeeper received a reward of twenty taels of silver, plus a lot of new year's goods as rewards, and went home happily to celebrate the New Year.
Liu Ruolan did an accounting in the evening. She made nearly two thousand taels of silver from these gift boxes alone. Adding in other miscellaneous items, their shop made a total of more than two thousand three hundred taels of silver in the twelfth lunar month.
Liu Ruolan was so excited that she couldn't sleep.
Perhaps because now that she is far away from her parents-in-law and starting to take charge of the family business again, Liu Ruolan is becoming more and more confident.
Who would have thought that more than a year ago, Liu Ruolan was still a country girl who was timid in speaking and acting, and did not dare to raise her head when walking?
Xie Xiuwen didn't let them off just because they had finished school. He spent the whole day on the 27th checking their homework. He also assigned homework that had to be handed in on the second day of the first lunar month.
Xie Rongzhao doesn't care about this. It's the New Year. There will be a lion dance in the city this year. You must go and see it.
"Third Young Master, there is a letter from my hometown, and there is another letter sent by Madam."
Cheng Jingzhou took the two letters and read them one by one with a hint of anger between his eyebrows.
"Master Wu, could you please tell the people over there to teach Cheng Yuanyuan a lesson? Even if she is maimed or disfigured, it doesn't matter. Show her claws again and again to make her remember!"
