Chapter 220 Delicious

After the basic development direction was determined, the money-raising team took action.

Taohua and Xia Daohua stayed in the store, keeping an eye on the store's business situation and responding to emergencies; Erlang went out to restaurants, inns, and merchant guilds, and was in charge of sales and wholesale.

The supply channel for "Daohuaxiang" was opened by Xia Daohua, who is also responsible for replenishing the stock at any time.

In fact, Xia Daohua was not in a hurry whether the store had any income or not.

She opened this store not only to do business itself, but also to serve as a cover.

With this store, many things can be directly said to be purchased from the store. How the goods were purchased is a trade secret and cannot be told to anyone.

However, having said that, Xia Daohua knew that her family would still pay attention to the income of her shop.

Too much or too little is not appropriate. Too much will easily arouse the greed of some people; too little will easily make those who really care about her worry.

"If you don't open for business for three years, you can make money for three years after you open it" is a good model.

Xia Daohua walked around the store, thinking and looking at the layout to see if there was anything unreasonable or uncomfortable. If there was, she would make a note of it and prepare to adjust it after closing at night.

As I was walking around, I heard the sound of wind chimes at the door, and a customer came into the store.

Looking up, I saw two young ladies wearing veils.

A thin girl, about the same height as Lihua, followed by two maids who were taller than her, about fifteen or sixteen years old;

The other one had a plump figure, half a head shorter than Lihua, and was followed by two maids who were about fifteen or sixteen years old.

Both of them were wearing veils, but the veils covering their faces were very thin and transparent, and it was obvious that they were two beautiful little beauties.

Xia Daohua immediately became interested. Judging from the way these two young ladies were dressed, they were both well-off. Perhaps the second wave of business would begin today.

She greeted him with a smile, and before she knew it, she had taken over the boy's job:

"Please come in, my two guests. Everything we eat, play with, and use is very novel and unique. Others don't have it. What would you like to see?"

The plump little beauty raised her hand and pointed: "What's in that bottle with a round belly?"

Xia Daohua looked back and saw a round-bellied glass bottle on top of the wooden shelf, filled with a variety of colorful candies, mostly fruit flavors, but also milk candies, toffees, chocolate candies, etc., so she smiled and said:

"That jar contains assorted candies, including traditional maltose, sorghum candy, and some new varieties. If the two ladies like them, you can have a taste."

Xia Daohua called the waiter over, brought a basin of water and a towel, asked the two young ladies to wash their hands, unscrewed the wooden lid of the glass jar, used a milky white metal clip to take the candy out of the jar, placed it on a delicate small plate, and invited the two guests to taste it.

The two young ladies tasted it and were immediately surprised. The slender young lady sighed:

“This taste is so authentic!”

Xia Daohua smiled and said, "With real ingredients, the taste is naturally authentic."

The two of them tried a few colors and then stopped: "Do these different colors have different flavors?"

Xia Daohua nodded:

"Yes. These are all fruit-flavored, and each color corresponds to a fruit. For example, the white one is lychee flavored, the purple one is grape flavored, the orange one is tangerine flavored, and the pink one is strawberry flavored...

But this one, this one, and this one are not fruity.

These flavors are quite special and different from ordinary candies. I wonder if customers will like them."

The two young ladies did not even continue to taste the "special flavors". Instead, they did not even ask the price. The slender young lady pointed at the round-bellied glass jar of assorted candies and said:

"Give me ten of these."

The plump one didn't say anything, it seemed that they were together. The thinner one was probably the older sister, and she was in charge of paying the bill.

The shop assistant quickly wrapped up the candy jar, and a maid followed the slender young lady to pay the bill.

Ten jars of assorted candies, sold for twenty taels of silver.

Two taels of silver for a jar!

This is simply huge profit!

But the taste and appearance of this candy are unique at this time and place.

The packaging of these candies are all clear glass jars, which are themselves very precious items.

However, after buying the candies, the two young ladies looked at other items reluctantly. After finally pulling their eyes away from the things, they got up and left.

The plump young lady was reluctant to leave, and she kept saying, "It's so delicious!"

The slender one patted her hand gently and whispered in her ear:

"I'm not available this time. We have to go back quickly. I'll bring you here next time I go out."

The two young ladies walked out of the door gracefully. Xia Daohua watched them from behind and said sincerely:

"Take care, both of you. Welcome to come again next time."

Although this business deal happened two hours after the previous guest came to congratulate her, Xia Daohua was still very excited.

Everything she has is good stuff, so there's no need to worry about no one knowing its value.

When doing business, you can't be too impatient.

These two young ladies seemed to bring good luck to Xia Daohua.

Next, many customers came into the store one after another.

However, to Xia Daohua's surprise, she had only sold three of the side dishes and soaps she had high hopes for so far, but she did sell quite a few of the candies and snacks she hadn't paid much attention to at first.

However, the best-selling products are various types of fruit wine.

Especially red wine, the sales volume is amazing.

She packaged the entire bottle of red wine into small 200 ml glass bottles. Unexpectedly, this type of red wine packaging turned out to be so popular.

Ten taels of silver per bottle, and sixteen bottles were sold in just one afternoon.

Xia Daohua smiled happily. At first she thought there would be no business today.

I didn’t expect that this Jixiang County, which looks plain and small in size, is actually full of hidden talents and has so many rich people!

The most important thing is that her shop is only open in the outer city, and there are so many people buying...

If it were opened in the inner city, wouldn't there be more wealthy people and sales would double?

Xia Daohua thought happily and smiled all day long.

After closing the shop at night, Xia Daohua replenished the sold merchandise on the shelves one by one. Looking at the tidy and tidy shop, she couldn't hide the joy in her heart.

With a smile on her lips, Xia Daohua carefully wrote down the purchase and shipment records, focusing on the price and quantity of the items sold, as well as the customer information.
