The doctors and shopkeepers started arguing.
In fact, they quickly noticed that the Chu family's pharmacy was doing well.
However, those who practice medicine have many years of experience and know that if a medicine has obvious effects, it may have been obtained through unethical means, such as using banned drugs or having severe side effects.
Unless absolutely necessary, it should not be used as a regular drug; that would be a terrible thing.
Hearing that Manager Tan had made a bet with the Chu family shop, they began to pay close attention to the matter.
Finally, the conclusion came out: there was nothing wrong with the Chu family's medicinal materials.
Of course they have to stock up. The Chu family has already started to build a reputation for these medicinal herbs, which are very popular with customers. It would be foolish not to sell them, or they would be eliminated by the market.
Therefore, they would absolutely not allow Manager Tan to handle all these medicinal herbs by himself.
Manager Tan knew he couldn't monopolize the supply, but he wanted to seize the initiative. Whoever set the price for the new goods first was likely to be the winner.
Seeing these people waiting for a windfall and acting on impulse, he became angry: "If you want to buy medicinal herbs, why didn't you do it sooner? Why did you have to wait for me to make a decision? We're all in the same industry, we see each other all the time, isn't this a bit shameless of you?"
"Oh, Manager Tan, it's not like we asked you to do this. Besides, these medicinal herbs are fine; our customers have verified that they are genuine. You're just making a bet with the Chu family shop."
"Even if it's not your bet, seeing that everyone has had no problems after eating it, we will still come and buy more."
Mr. Tan didn't want to argue with them. He said, "Madam Chu, what do you think we should do?"
That indignant look in his eyes clearly demanded an explanation from the boss.
Old Madam Chu looked at Qiao Lian'er.
Qiao Lian'er had just been thinking about this problem. She hadn't made any extra promises to this Boss Tan, such as being the first to wholesale to him or only to him. That was impossible, and he couldn't afford it.
Moreover, at the beginning, it was not very polite for Mr. Tan to openly question him.
She said, "Boss Tan, let's stick to the agreement. If you lose, you'll have to buy the medicinal herbs from here. You'll get a spot anyway."
"That's the only way."
Madam Chu and Qiao Yunni wholeheartedly agreed.
“But—” Mr. Tan blurted out instinctively, only to find that he was completely in the wrong.
"Besides, I have a lot of goods. In addition to two shops, I also have a cartload. You can bring in whatever you want, and then we can discuss the pricing properly."
It's not about setting a fixed price, but rather allowing it to fluctuate within a reasonable range.
This is the foundation of a peaceful business environment. Those who want to seize the price advantage first or monopolize the market will only disrupt the environment and cause mutual hatred among everyone.
"The quality of trimming, baking, grinding, slicing, and pill making varies, and customers will choose differently. This is where the competition lies, and I believe you understand this better than I do."
The shopkeepers and doctors couldn't help but admire her. This little girl wasn't even of marriageable age yet, but she was so capable, able to see the essence of the problem.
Manager Tan had also figured it out, and couldn't help but secretly laugh at himself. He had been so righteous, yet he had come up with a "crooked" idea. Although seizing the pricing advantage was not a dishonorable thing, it would cause turmoil in the industry and was ultimately not peaceful.
In business, the most important thing is to rely on your own abilities and deliver goods in different forms.
Manager Tan is all set; let's begin wholesaling the medicinal herbs.
Truckloads and bags of medicinal herbs were transported away and moved away. By evening, the two shops were almost completely sold out.
Some herbal medicine shops even imitated Qiao Lian'er's method of attracting customers with nuts and started selling nuts.
On that one day alone, they made a thousand taels of silver.
