Chapter 142 The Problematic Toothpaste Order

"Next year? I'm not sure if such a good thing will be waiting for me next year. Mother, you have no idea how outstanding those young masters and ladies who go to the prestigious families for the assessment are!"

It was truly our good fortune that allowed us three sisters to stand out among so many young masters and ladies.

This kind of luck doesn't come every year. What if this opportunity doesn't come next year? What will I do then?

Even if I could come up with the money, I might not be able to get in!

"I've encountered such a rare opportunity, of course I have to seize it, I won't give it up!" Wu Qiaohui shouted angrily, then ran out wiping away her tears.

Wu Qiaolan pursed her lips, her gaze resolute.

"Father, Mother, I won't give up this opportunity either."

...

Since the heavy rain that lasted for seven days stopped, the sky has never cleared up. The gloomy, gray-white weather always seems to be heading for another round of rain.

On gloomy days, Anle always feels drowsy and lazy, wanting to stay in bed.

She loves to stay in bed in this kind of weather, sleeping soundly, or lying in bed daydreaming without fail.

The ideal is beautiful, but reality is often disappointing.

Anle was nestled in her warm, two-meter-wide bed, fast asleep, when a knock on the door startled her awake.

Anle felt a chill on her upper body and, dazed, opened her eyes to see Anning, who had pulled back her blanket. Her short temper flared up.

"Fourth Sister, what are you doing? Can't you see I'm sleeping? Why do you always have to do this to me? Can't you let me sleep? It's rare for me to get a good night's sleep and not have to get up early!"

Starting tonight, I'm locking that door; nobody's coming in.

"Do you think I wanted to come over and disturb your sleep, or listen to you complain to me? It's just that my cousin and her family came over."

"Come on over if you want, what's it to me?" Anle said irritably, pulling the blanket over her head.

"They've come to borrow money."

After a three-second pause, Anle pulled back the blanket covering her head and sat up.

"What? You're here to borrow money?"

Didn't we just see one off yesterday? Why is another one coming over today?

Is it really that easy to borrow money from Her Paradise Dessert Shop? Does Her Paradise Dessert Shop seem that approachable?

"No!" Anle spat out the two words in an annoyed tone.

An Ning raised an eyebrow. "I didn't say I wanted to borrow it. I just came to you. If you, who controls the family finances, don't ask, who would dare to lend it to me?"

They've been dealing with this for quite a while now. They arrived as soon as the door opened this morning, and it's been a full hour now, but those two older cousins ​​haven't moved an inch.

Judging from their attitude, if we don't lend them the money today, they're determined not to leave.

Have you been sitting here for two hours?

Wow, even more capable than An Xian?

This so-called prestigious Luo family is really causing a lot of trouble; even she has suffered because of it.

"Okay, I got it. Let them lean there. They can leave whenever they want. Close the door when it gets dark and kick them out."

An Ning snorted.

"That's what I was thinking too, but Shoushan's dad just happened to come over at this time to talk to you about the toothpaste and ask how the toothpaste on the order is going?"

I was planning to come over today to pick up the goods on that order, that's why I'm here to ask you for them.

Anle paused, "There's a problem with that order. I need to talk to him about it personally."

"Then what are you still sitting there for? Hurry up! Don't keep your uncle waiting!"

Anle scratched her head in pain. Ugh, she had a hard time getting out of bed. It was so hard for her!

When Anle went to the store in front to see An Yizhong, he forced himself to stay awake and greet him.

Having lived in her previous life, she was already used to staying up late, especially young people who generally stay up late and often stay up all night.

Being active at night and sleeping during the day is commonplace; who isn't someone who has trouble getting out of bed?

On weekends and holidays, they don't even get up before lunchtime.

Anle yawned lazily, her mood somewhat low. After being woken up, she was clearly still holding onto a grumpy attitude, and was too lazy to pay attention to her two older cousins ​​next to her.

Ignoring their gazes, she casually tossed the order form onto the coffee table and asked her question in a low voice.

"Uncle, I won't beat around the bush with you. I'll just get straight to the point. I think this order is a bit strange."

My uncle took twenty tubes of toothpaste from me recently. The time between that order and the order for those twenty tubes of toothpaste is too short, and it was all from the same group of people.

Although they are wealthy and powerful, spending money like water without batting an eye, their demand is still a bit too much.

Even if they want to open up the toothpaste market, they have to proceed step by step and gradually expand sales. I don't think it's very likely that they can open up the market all at once.

Accepting new things takes time, and I don't believe that everyone can accept a household product like toothpaste in such a short period of time.

An Yizhong rubbed his hands together, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"This order of 200 pieces is indeed much larger."

I asked them too, but none of the maids and servants in those wealthy households would tell me, only that they wanted this much quantity.

These high-end consumers who had tried and were currently using toothpaste had indeed embraced this new product.

Anle raised an eyebrow.

"There's no need to buy such a large quantity. Once you run out of this stuff, you can always buy more. It's not like you won't be able to buy it again in the future. Why do you have to stock up on so much toothpaste all at once?"

Moreover, these consumables can't be used up all at once; even one tube will last for a while, let alone ordering more than twenty at once.

Could it be that you plan to have all the maids, servants, and lackeys in the mansion use it?

Although wealthy families are not short of money, it's still unnecessary to throw money away like this.

Even the most powerful person wouldn't be so extravagant as to provide for and manage even the servants' daily necessities.

An Yizhong gave a shrewd smile.

"We're just running a business, all we need to do is take orders and handle business. Why worry about so much else? In short, we're the ones who make money from all these orders."

Of course, if Lewazi can't produce that much, he can wait two more days; they've given him a five-day grace period.

Anle blinked. Five days?

There is a time limit!

Five days isn't a short time, but a tube of toothpaste can last a long time, so five days isn't enough.

Why is it necessary to limit it to these five days?

That sounds like they're in a rush!

Although what the uncle said made sense, something still felt off.
