A smart person understands immediately. Yan Xiao's words just now actually gave Mu Yunniang a direct opportunity to refuse.
If Mu Yunniang had politely refused, neither of them would have lost face, and they could have simply treated it as an ordinary conversation.
Since Mu Yunniang chose to ask, it meant there was hope for the matter, so Yan Xiao stopped beating around the bush and directly told Mu Yunniang the purpose of her visit:
“Yunniang, I’m not one to beat around the bush; I’ll just say what I mean.”
I truly believe we click. Now that there's an opportunity to make money, and considering we're both women and you're an experienced businesswoman, partnering with you on this soap business would be the best choice.
After all, only women truly understand women, and the target audience for this soap will likely be mostly women.
That's why I invited you here today to discuss this matter. I wanted to ask if you're interested. If so, we can discuss the details further.
Since Mu Yunniang was already prepared to spend money to accompany Yanxiao for fun, she had no other intentions and simply nodded:
"Of course I'm interested. Madam just arrived in Jiangbei and she's already created such a popular product as crayfish. I don't know how many people are envious of her."
Now that Madam has some new gadgets, and you think of me first, it is my honor. How could I refuse such a kind offer?
“Yunniang is too modest. I’m relieved that you agreed to cooperate with me. To be honest, I can’t think of anyone more suitable than you in the whole of Jiangbei.”
Yan Xiao smiled and exchanged a few compliments with Mu Yunniang, which could be considered a business exchange of flattery.
Then he led the people to the pavilion in the courtyard, signaling Qianqiu Wandai to serve tea and snacks before starting to discuss the cooperation plan.
"To be honest, I am very confident in the effectiveness of this soap, but as you just said, it's hard to convince people with just empty words."
So I came up with a way to make the soap famous, but I need Yunniang's help to come up with this plan.
"If you have any difficulties, please speak freely. As long as it is something that Yunniang can do, Yunniang will do it without hesitation."
Yan Xiao had been waiting for Mu Yunniang to say this, so she directly stated her plan.
She only has about twenty bars of soap left. She has no intention of selling them; she plans to keep a few for her own use and give away the remaining twenty at a loss as trial use.
However, the person who gives the gift is very particular; they must be wealthy. Mu Yunniang is perfectly capable of doing so.
All Mu Yunniang needs to do is announce that, in order to thank new and old customers for their support, she has specially bought the newly developed soap at a high price and will give it free to the top 20 customers who spend the most money in the shop each year.
To avoid making others feel like they're being used as guinea pigs, they could say that Mu Yunniang had personally used this product and found it excellent, which is why she reluctantly gave it away to her distinguished guest.
Things are valued for their rarity. Since only twenty-two people obtained this item, others would naturally be curious about its uses.
Yan Xiao is confident in the effectiveness of the soap, saying that anyone who uses it will feel the difference compared to bath beans.
Wealthy people know how to enjoy life. Once they've used something good, they'll continue to use it as long as they have the opportunity, and they'll never settle for less.
Once she releases her new soaps with various patterns and scents, these people will become her first customers. Once she has her first customers, she won't have to worry about sales.
In order to maximize the reputation of the soap, she decided to promote it in advance, saying that she would try the soap in public at the multi-treasure pavilion on the day of the gift. This gimmick was a game-changer.
Putting aside her status as a general's wife, the fact that her appearance is now a mystery is enough to attract attention.
After all, the casino is still open, betting on whether she's beautiful or ugly.
Her personal trial of the product indicated that she would make an appearance that day, whether it was out of curiosity to watch the spectacle or to see who would win or lose.
Even if they weren't qualified to enter the Treasure Pavilion, they wouldn't miss the chance to join the fun and wait for news outside.
Yan Xiao also suggested that when promoting the event in advance, Mu Yunniang could put up a notice at the entrance of Duobaoge, directly indicating the top 20 customers who spend money at the moment.
Wealthy people value their image and appearances, and sometimes they are willing to spend more money just to save face.
Mu Yunniang was initially in a good mood, willing to spend money to accompany Yan Xiao, but after hearing Yan Xiao's plan, she couldn't help but get excited.
She thought that the general's wife was a truly remarkable person; she had never heard of or seen such a propaganda method before.
Yan Xiao really did take all the factors that would benefit her into account, including herself.
As long as the soap is truly safe, this promotional approach will be entirely beneficial for both her and Duobaoge.
Based on her understanding of Yan Xiao, she knew that this person didn't seem like the type to speak carelessly.
Moreover, how could someone who could come up with such an ingenious method be someone who talks nonsense?
This made her think of Jueweilou, the most successful restaurant in Jiangbei City today, and how many people in the restaurant business were envious of Ma Youcai's good fortune.
Fortunately, Mu Yunniang had seen money before, otherwise she would have been so excited that she would have been incoherent.
She took a deep breath to compose herself, and after calming down a bit, she stood up, bowed to Yan Xiao, and said with genuine admiration:
"Madam is very talented. I am ashamed of myself. I will do everything I can to help you get this done."
Seeing her like this, Yan Xiao quickly got up and helped her up herself, smiling as she said:
"What is Yunniang doing? From now on, we will be business partners. Since I came to Jiangbei City, I don't have any close female friends. I can't even find anyone to talk to."
We clicked, and we'll likely see each other often in the future. Let's just treat each other as friends; there's no need for constant formalities like bowing and scraping, as it makes us seem distant.
Mu Yunniang's eyes lit up when she heard this. Before she could reply, Yan Xiao suddenly took off the hat she had been wearing, revealing a face with exquisite features that was both alluring and bewitching.
Over the past few days, Yanxiao's skin tone has become several shades lighter, and it's not much different from a normal person's anymore. Naturally, the impact of her facial features is even greater than before.
Mu Yunniang had been trying to improve Yanxiao's appearance based on rumors and her own speculations, but now, seeing such a face without warning, she was speechless.
