After hearing what Zhang Yaoyao said, the old man subconsciously waved his hands.
"Little girl, I sell milk by the bucket. If you only want a few pounds, I'm sorry, I can't sell it to you."
The main thing is that there are no containers that can hold several kilograms. The best way is to sell it by barrels. Not only can you sell more, but it is also more convenient.
The main thing is that there is no container that can hold a few pounds of food. The best way is to sell it by the bucket.
As a veteran who has been selling milk in the market for several days, no one knows better than him that if the bottled milk is sold separately, it will take forever!
It is sold by the bucket. Anyone who wants to buy it has to buy one bucket. It will be sold out in a few seconds. Anyway, he doesn't have many buckets of milk left.
Hearing that the other party's milk was sold by the barrel, Zhang Yaoyao was confused and said subconsciously.
"Ah, but I don't need a bucket of milk!"
The old man selling milk seemed to see Zhang Yaoyao's hesitation and tempted her.
"I can't help it, little girl. I sell milk by the bucket. If you want a bucket, I can give you a discount. How about eight dollars a bucket?"
Zhang Yaoyao: “…”
Dairy farmers are quite good at bundling sales!
The old dairy farmer looked at Zhang Yaoyao expectantly. It was no wonder that he sold milk this way. The main reason was that the sales to the milk buyers had not been good during this period, and the milk produced by his family was in excess of demand. So, wasn't that why he was selling the extra milk?
When he arrived at the market, the old dairy farmer didn't expect that it would be even harder to sell milk retail. In the past, merchants could give him ten yuan per barrel when they came to buy milk. Now business is not good, people have reduced their milk consumption, and the price of milk from ten yuan per barrel has been reduced to eight yuan per barrel. As a last resort, he, the dairy farmer, had to sell the extra milk.
Then... the market outside is even worse. Business has been poor for a few days. Yesterday, when the market was closing, I tried to get two buckets of milk, but it was too far and too heavy to carry back.
In order to increase his burden, he had no choice but to pour it into the sewer.
When he returned home because of the milk pouring incident, he was criticized by his wife, who said he was stubborn and would not lower the price to sell the milk to the city people. Even if he could sell it for one or two yuan, it was better than pouring it down the sewer.
Farmers milk cows for money, don't they? If they don't even make any money, and instead follow others and pour the milk down the drain, aren't they asking for trouble?
Therefore, the old dairy farmer who was baptized by his wife also learned the lesson today. When he saw a customer coming to his door, in addition to selling the whole barrel, he also lowered the price to lure the buyer.
Zhang Yaoyao naturally didn't know that at the moment when she complained that the bucket of milk was too much, many twists and turns had already flashed through the dairy farmer's mind. He just stared at the big bucket of milk in front of him and said subconsciously.
"A bucket of milk is indeed a bit too much!"
But she was screaming in her heart, she really couldn’t use so much fresh milk!
When the dairy farmer saw that he had lowered the price and Zhang Yaoyao did not agree to buy fresh milk, he became anxious and blurted out the offer without thinking.
"Little girl, my milk is freshly squeezed this morning. How about this? I'll give you a discount. How about five dollars for a bucket of milk?"
Zhang Yaoyao: “…”
Suddenly I felt like I had won the lottery. A big bucket of milk is only five dollars. This dairy farmer is really selling it in bundles. The discount is really great.
Since the other party insisted on selling her a large bucket of milk, she would accept it. Besides using some milk for bathing and making facial masks, what should she do with the rest of the milk? She would decide after she bought it back.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yaoyao was no longer vague and made the final decision.
"Alright, since you're so sincere about selling me the milk, I'll take it!"
Dairy farmer: “…”
Is this honesty on my part? I'm clearly worried that my milk won't sell, so I'm lowering the price for you!
How did the little girl know that she was sincere? Her sincerity was to exchange all the fresh milk for money!
Of course, the dairy farmer was in tears, but his hands were also very clear in his movements. He handed a bucket of milk to Zhang Yaoyao and said with a smile.
"Here, your milk!"
Zhang Yaoyao looked at the bucket of milk and suddenly fell silent. This milk was very cheap. After buying it, how would she take it back?
Later... Zhang Yaoyao spent another twenty yuan, went to the place where buckets were sold, bought a bucket of the same size, and finally bought the bucket of milk.
After buying the items, Zhang Yaoyao looked at the bucket of milk and the bags of food in her hands, and she couldn't help but feel like shouting to the sky.
"As expected, you can't be greedy for small profits. How are we going to get home now? Don't I have to pay for a rickshaw to take me back? That's another two dollars."
This is a huge loss. The price I paid for taking a shower and applying a facial mask is too high.
While riding on the three-wheeled motorcycle on the way home, Zhang Yaoyao reflected on her mistakes and came to the conclusion that she should never be greedy for small gains.
Because you are greedy for the cheap milk for five dollars, the chain reaction caused is that you have to pay several times more price to get the milk home.
Of course, after learning from her mistakes, Zhang Yaoyao decided that for the sake of her beauty and body, she had to buy the five-yuan bucket of milk. After all, she had already bought the bucket to store the milk in. The worst that could happen was that she would just have to pay an extra two yuan for shipping.
When I returned to my New Vision Clothing Store, Mrs. Yan had already arrived and was busy at the sewing machine!
Zhang Yaoyao came in carrying large and small bags of things. Mrs. Yan just stood up to help her move the things that she couldn't carry into the house, and then sat back in front of the sewing machine to continue working. There were too many orders during this period. After receiving piece-rate wages at the end of last month, Mrs. Yan became more motivated to work more.
As for Zhang Yaoyao, she naturally would not interfere with Mrs. Yan's work. She carried the things she bought back to the small courtyard at the back, made something simple for herself, and filled her stomach.
Pour some of the milk out of the bucket and put it into the well water to cool it down, and save it for bathing and making facial masks at night.
Looking at the remaining bucket of milk, Zhang Yaoyao's brain quickly came up with an accurate use for it, which was to make milk tea.
Zhang Yaoyao did it as soon as she thought of it. She took out tea leaves and other things needed for making milk tea from the kitchen and prepared to make milk tea. The white sugar bought from home had been used up long ago, but fortunately there was still brown sugar, enough to make a large bucket of milk tea.
Zhang Yaoyao didn't mind and planned to use the brown sugar to make a large bucket of caramel milk tea. Of course, she and Sister Yan couldn't drink so much, so the rest was left in the store.
Wait until the customers come into the store and then give them a drink. It is only right to make money from them and give them a cup of milk tea.
What's more, there is never a shortage of snacks, candies and other things in her clothing store, so that she can treat the customers well and make them willingly take out their money and hand it to her.
