Chapter 18: Deception
A younger man stared at Cheng Hui, and when he saw her visibly pregnant belly, he paused and frowned.
Another older man wearing glasses took the toothpick from Cheng Hui, tasted it, and asked casually, "Are you from Beijing? An educated youth?"
In fact, he wanted to ask which department your dad belonged to!
Cheng Hui smiled, did not answer the question, and stuffed a toothpick into the hands of another fat man who was staring at his cake plate.
The man's eyes lit up after eating.
Cheng Hui smiled and said, "You all look like leaders, so you're planning to buy New Year gifts, right? Cigarettes, alcohol, sugar, and tea are all old-fashioned, and people who receive gifts are tired of them. Why don't you try our majestic cakes? We just learned new technology from Country M, and all the ingredients are imported. One bag costs only 10 yuan! It will definitely make you look good when you give it away."
She patted the bag in Tao Juan's hand, revealing big black letters: "Retail price 10 yuan!".
The three of them remained silent, but their eyes all fell on the packaging bag and lit up.
What do gift givers fear the most? What we fear most is that the person receiving the gift thinks the gift they give is not good or valuable!
Just now, when Cheng Hui came over to give the salesperson a taste, they all heard it, but there was no reaction.
It’s just a new type of 槽子糕. With their status, why would they give the leader another 槽子gg? Are you waiting to be thrown out by your leader?
But if you bring this packaging bag, the bright "10 yuan" will look different.
Now the most expensive bottle of Moutai is only 8 yuan, and the cheapest is 3 yuan.
A good pack of cigarettes costs only three or four yuan, and the cheaper ones cost one or two yuan, and that’s for a pack, not a box.
This bag of cake will definitely be significant and prestigious when given away.
"Also, our buy one get one free promotion will only be available for three days. After three days, the original price will be restored. If you want to buy it again, the government will not agree to pay a penny less." Cheng Hui said.
Another concern of theirs was resolved.
In this case, the cake would be said to be worth 10 yuan instead of 5 yuan.
They spend 5 dollars to deliver a 10-dollar portion.
"We're actually losing money if we sell at half price, so we can only give out 20 kilograms a day." She whispered, "And you know, we have to keep some for ourselves...
"So there are only about 20 bags left today, and we'll go home after we deliver them.
"If you want it again, you'll have to wait until tomorrow. And I can't say for sure whether it will be delivered tomorrow. Our leader is in a meeting at the factory right now!"
She said a lot, but actually said nothing, but these people who were used to speaking in official language heard a lot of things!
This is an opportunity to get a bargain, don’t miss it!
"Give me five bags." said the man with glasses.
The fat man immediately said, "Give me 10 bags!"
Cheng Hui immediately praised: "You are very thoughtful. My father often told me that it is better to buy more food and give it to my family members. But I must not leave anyone behind, otherwise... there will be a lot of trouble."
The fat man nodded heavily!
Isn't that the truth!
Last year he was stingy with money, so when he gave a gift to a deputy leader, he left two bottles of wine missing. As a result, he was bullied by him for the whole year! My feet still hurt now!
We must appease him this year!
Every failure makes you wiser, and others can’t fall behind!
Cheng Hui said, "But this is a promotional activity. The purpose is to let more people taste our Weifeng cakes and build their reputation, so each person is limited to buying 5 bags at most!"
She said to the fat uncle sincerely: "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"
The man who was rejected was even happier...
It's not a good deal if you're pushing for it. He wants to buy but the other party won't sell! This makes it seem even more valuable.
The two of them felt a little distressed before, as they spent 25 yuan to buy several pounds of caozi cake, but now they really feel that they got a bargain and they are happy to pay.
Cheng Hui turned around, took the bag from Tao Juan and winked at her.
Tao Juan ran away with one foot high and one foot low.
Wang Hui and Li Yan were standing behind the table in a daze. They were frightened when they saw Tao Juan running back in panic.
Wang Hui quickly ran over to greet her, and Tao Juan looked like she was about to fall down at any moment.
"What happened? What happened to the deputy director?" Wang Hui asked anxiously, "Did he get beaten up because he sold the products too expensively?"
Tao Juan woke up instantly and pinched him: "Keep your voice down, what are you shouting for!"
"Oh." Wang Hui looked around awkwardly, and sure enough, many people were looking at him.
"What nonsense!" Tao Juan shouted, "Our majestic cakes are made with the technology we just learned from Country M! All the raw materials are imported! The leaders all said they were good after eating them. Selling them for a few cents a pound is an insult to them. We must sell them for 1 yuan a piece!"
She is quite quick in learning and applying what she has learned.
Wang Hui and Li Yan were both stunned. What American technology? What imported raw materials? What big leader?
Sister Tao wasn’t so good at bragging before!
"Pack 10 bags for me quickly and send them over with me. There are two leaders over there who have ordered 5 bags each!" Tao Juan said loudly.
The onlookers were suddenly in an uproar.
Wang Hui and Li Yan were selling things here, one taozi cake for 1 yuan. Many people saw it, and I don’t know how many times they cursed in their hearts, “How wicked!” Only a fool would buy it!
Did it really sell out?
Li Yan began to count the small bags in a panic.
Tao Juan patted him on the shoulder and said, "I want a big bag! A big bag for 10 yuan. You stay here and watch the stall. Wang and I will deliver it."
There are 25 large bags and 50 small bags in total. There are still 50 pieces left scattered and unpacked, so they are packed randomly. Cheng Hui says they will be of great use to her.
Tao Juan just took away 5 big bags, and now there are only 20 left. There is no need to count them, just take a basket away.
After the two of them delivered the things, Cheng Hui said, "Do you two leaders live far away? We need to catch the 4pm train back. If time is convenient, I will ask someone to help you deliver the things to your home. Although they are not heavy, they take up too much space."
This service is so thoughtful! It is almost like home delivery which is something people cannot enjoy nowadays.
The two were immediately satisfied and told the address.
As soon as Cheng Hui heard it, she knew what they were doing...
The man with glasses lives in the staff quarters of the provincial publishing house, and the fat uncle lives in the staff quarters of the district committee.
"Okay, you guys want to buy something else? We have two men here, let them take it back for you later."
After Cheng Hui finished speaking, she quickly glanced at Wang Hui.
Wang Hui, who had expressed some objections just now, instantly became obedient and stood there like an obedient fool.
My goodness, the look in the deputy factory director’s eyes just now was so scary! He seemed to see his grandmother who had passed away many years ago!
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention one thing. This dessert doesn't contain any preservatives. It's fresh and safe, so the shelf life is only three days. If you think the time is inconvenient, I will refund your money right now." Cheng Hui pretended to reach into her pocket.
The two people who had frowned when they heard that the shelf life was only 3 days suddenly relaxed their brows.
The less others want to sell, the more they want to buy!
The fat uncle smiled and said, "Didn't your father teach you that? If you deliver it early, you can stagger it with others, which will make a deeper impression on them."
Cheng Hui blinked and smiled, "My father also taught me that if it is difficult to please adults, then please children. Whose children are not treasures? He often talks about which uncle is good, which is more effective than anyone else."
Suddenly, the three people's eyes lit up.
This is their blind spot in thinking. They never took the “little brat” seriously before, but now they think it is true!
The gifts they gave were either eaten or passed on or put away, and the leaders might forget about them as soon as they turned around.
But if you please the child, he will just say hello to uncle so and so when he has nothing to do at home. Isn't that better than anything else?
The people who like this sweet and sticky pastry the most are probably children.
The two of them, who originally felt that they were a little bit stupid, immediately decided to ask their family members to come over tomorrow and buy 5 more bags! I’ll buy it for someone else the day after tomorrow!
The young man who had been silent until then said, "Give me five bags too!"
