Chapter 57: Noble Person (Explosive Update 3)
It is true that Hua Daling is a chatterbox, but she is indeed a good worker. What's more, Chu Xuan still needs her to provide information about Feng Chunhua's movements from time to time.
"Yes! Everyone come over. We need to process 2,000 kilograms tomorrow morning. I'll go to the dock and tell Li Tong to prepare."
People are not afraid of being tired, but they are afraid of not making money.
The happiest person was Widow Niu. Catching an extra thousand kilograms of fish meant carrying more water and chopping more wood. Not only would her wages double, but she would also get overtime pay.
This was the longest job she had ever done; it had never lasted more than two days before.
Widow Niu volunteered, "I'll go talk to Li Tong! Xiao Xuan, you stay home and take care of things!"
More than happy to run errands.
Chu Xuan nodded in agreement.
Widow Niu ran out of the door happily. She was not afraid even though the road was pitch black.
Other women might worry about being harassed by bad men, but Widow Niu is not afraid at all. She is stronger than men and has great strength.
In the past, there were some bad men who were short-sighted and wanted to take advantage of her, but she beat them to a pulp.
From then on, no man dared to touch her.
Miao Dacui stayed to watch the oven, and the rest went home.
At around three o'clock in the morning of the next day, Chu Xuan started setting up a stall at the city's farmers' market.
Today she brought 300 kilograms of grilled fish fillets and still set up the second stall as soon as she entered the door.
Zhang Dong's wife arrived early and saw the first stall she saw. The price was lowered again to one yuan per pound, and they were not allowed to try before buying.
Chu Xuan's price is still two yuan per pound, which is twice as expensive as Zhang's.
Many new customers wanted to save money and bought Zhang's grilled fish fillets.
Chu Xuan's business was slow, so he shouted, "Freshly baked fish fillets, try them before you buy, you won't be fooled!"
This is a disguised way of telling customers that they will be cheated if they don’t try it.
Even so, there are still people who want to save money and buy Zhang's grilled fish fillets.
When Mu Chenze came to find Chu Xuan after delivering the goods, there were still more than 200 kilograms of grilled fish fillets left.
Zhang's grilled fish fillets are sold out.
Zhang Dong's wife looked at Chu Xuan provocatively and walked out of the market.
Mu Chenze pointed at her back and said, "I think I've seen that woman somewhere before. Oh, by the way, when I was following Zhang Qiu, I saw her walk into the Zhang family's house."
Chu Xuan looked helpless. "It's Zhang Dong's wife. She's trying to steal my business. Her grilled fish fillets are one yuan per pound, and I didn't lower the price, so there are so many left."
Mu Chenze was surprised, "How can she make money selling it so cheaply?"
"It's made with stinky fish that no one wants. The cost is very low."
"If someone buys a defective product like this once, they will never buy it again."
"I hope so. I can't go back with you today. I'm going to renew my stall fee and set up the stall for another two or three hours to see how things go."
"I don't have much to do when I get home, so I'll help you run the stall. I don't want any salary, just buy me breakfast."
"good."
About ten minutes later, Chu Xuan came back after paying the stall fee and saw a customer standing in front of the first empty stall with a bag of grilled fish fillets weighing about five pounds.
"Where's the stall owner here? I want to return the grilled fish fillets! Is this for human consumption? The top layer is good, but the bottom layer is full of fishy odor."
Chu Xuan kindly reminded, "She's sold out and left. I just kept telling you to try before you buy and you won't be fooled, but you didn't listen. I guess she'll come again tomorrow, but given her personality, she probably won't give me a refund."
The customer kicked the stall. "How dare she! If she doesn't return it, I'll tear her stall down!"
He left with the bag of grilled fish fillets.
Chu Xuan returned to the stall.
Half an hour later, business was still slow.
By six in the morning, there were still 180 kilograms of grilled fish fillets left.
Chu Xuan told Mu Chenze to watch the stall while she went out to buy some steamed meat buns.
Not long after I left, a man in a suit walked into the market.
Just then I heard Mu Chenze's hawking voice.
“Freshly grilled fish fillet, try it before you buy! Absolutely delicious!”
The man looked in the direction of the voice. Hmm? This stall owner looked familiar.
It was the young man he almost bumped into two days ago.
He stepped forward and started a conversation, "Hello, young man! Do you remember me?"
Mu Chenze felt like he had seen him somewhere before. After thinking for a while, he finally remembered, "I remember! How is your mother?"
"She received timely treatment and is no longer in danger of death. I'm so sorry about that day! I must have scared you and your friends. I left in a hurry and didn't leave any contact information. My name is Hou Mingliang. Are you two okay?"
"Nothing. My name is Mu Chenze. My friend is Chu Xuan, and this is her stall. She went out to buy breakfast and isn't back yet. Are you here to browse the market?"
"Yes! I contracted a shop at the airport and come here to purchase goods every once in a while."
Mu Chenze quickly grabbed a piece of grilled fish fillet with a clean paper and said, "Try this and see if it can enter your store?"
Hou Mingliang smelled something delicious, so he took it and tasted it. It was spicy, and he couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
"tasty!"
Mu Chenze said enthusiastically, "Let's try the other two flavors."
As he spoke, he used paper to grab the salty, sweet and spicy flavors.
Hou Mingliang took it without hesitation and ate it in a short while.
"Very delicious. I see your grilled fish fillets are of good quality and can be stored. As long as the price is right, I will buy all of them from the stall."
Buy it and have someone package it so you can sell it for a good price.
Mu Chenze introduced carefully, "Retail sales are 2 yuan per catty, and more than 5 catties are 1.8 yuan per catty. Bulk purchases are 1.6 yuan per catty. Of course, there are also products in the market that cost 1 yuan per catty, but they are made from stinky fish that others don't want. My friend's grilled fish fillets are all made from freshly caught fish, so the quality is absolutely guaranteed. By the way, I'm a fisherman and my family has a fishing boat. If you want to eat any seafood in the future, just let me know."
The customers in Hou Mingliang's shop are all relatively wealthy people. The quality is guaranteed and the price is acceptable. "Okay, buy them all."
180 kilograms, a total of 288 yuan.
Mu Chenze wanted to give him a discount of three yuan and sell it to him for 285 yuan, but he refused and insisted on paying 288 yuan, saying that this number was auspicious.
Just then, Chu Xuan came back. Before he could figure out the situation, Mu Chenze called him to borrow Liu Chao's cart to move the grilled fish fillets.
After moving, I got to know Hou Mingliang.
Mu Chenze handed the 288 yuan to Chu Xuan.
Hou Mingliang also ordered a batch of fresh sea cucumbers and abalone from Mu Chenze, which will be delivered in two days. Just call his home when the time comes.
He hires someone to process and package these fine seafood products and then sells them at a higher price.
After exchanging contact information and addresses, Chu Xuan and Mu Chenze boarded the bus back to the county town, eating delicious steamed meat buns.
They didn't purchase any goods today, so they can go home and rest early.
After arriving at the county town, Chu Xuan went to Uncle Long to ask how the shirts were selling, and then went his separate ways with Mu Chenze.
Mu Chenze didn't rush home, but went to find a friend to get some things.
As Chu Xuan walked into Uncle Long's shop, Uncle Long came to greet her. "I was planning to call you later. Your Aunt Liu said the Dacron shirts are selling well, and she asked me to ask if you could exchange them for some men's shirts. Many of her male colleagues want them too. I have the money for those shirts from yesterday. Here, count them for yourself."
Uncle Long took out a stack of money from his pocket, all ten-yuan notes.
Chu Xuan took it and counted it. There were twenty bills, totaling 200 yuan, and he paid it all.
Just as he put it in his pocket, Uncle Long handed him another stack of money, which was about 200 yuan.
Chu Xuan looked puzzled. This money...
