Chapter 363 Taking on the Department Store Order
Pick up the goods at my door?
That's great!
Let the people in the family compound see for themselves that the people picking up the goods are from the department store, and let everyone know that she is indeed cooperating with the department store and the state collective, so that she will not be accused of speculation.
It can also attract more people to participate in side hustles.
With the department store offering door-to-door pickup, she won't need to make a special trip anymore; she can simply have the department store staff settle the bill with her sisters-in-law.
She can have more time to do her own things, such as practicing medicine, or mastering the ancient martial arts techniques she has acquired after upgrading the space, thereby increasing her ability to protect herself.
"Sister Song, the number you asked for isn't small, but I can grit my teeth and make two thousand lipsticks and other things for you! Okay! Let's settle on this number! Come to Dongming Island in half a month, and I'll personally entertain you and let you see the lipstick-making process of the sisters-in-law."
"We hope to cooperate with the department store as soon as possible for other products under our Langhua brand in the future."
Cen Yan was overjoyed inside, but on her face she still wore an expression of enduring pain and facing death with equanimity.
Sister Song asked in confusion, "Langhua brand?"
Cen Yan thought about the first batch of goods that were consigned to the department store without any labels, so she explained the origin of the Langhua brand.
"That's how it is. From now on, the handmade lipsticks made by my sisters-in-law, as well as the Seven White Cream I make, will be packaged in specially customized lipstick boxes."
"Furthermore, we will engrave the Langhua brand logo on the outside and take anti-counterfeiting measures. This way, we won't have to worry about ordinary people buying fake military spouse handmade lipsticks."
Sister Song nodded: "Indeed, many people who come to buy skincare products hope to buy products with licenses and certifications, otherwise they won't know who to complain to if their skin gets damaged. But Xiao Cen, won't this increase the cost of lipsticks? A lipstick costs 50 cents, and after deducting the cost, there's not much profit."
"It's just a little less profit. This is to protect the interests of the women. Otherwise, if we don't make any money and get into a lot of lawsuits, it will have a bad impact on the women and the department store, right?"
Cen Yan has witnessed too much of the impact that piracy has had on genuine products, so the anti-counterfeiting mark of the Langhua brand must be even better than the brand packaging!
Sister Song looked at Cen Yan with admiration.
"You're such a sincere girl. If it were anyone else, with a self-production certificate, they would have been secretly making money by making lipsticks, instead of thinking about the people around them."
“Sister Song, you are mistaken. Individual wealth is not true wealth; the wealth of the masses is true wealth! Only when everyone works together can our lives get better and better. I am merely responding to the call of the country and striving for honor and development with the collective.”
Cen Yan's righteous declaration warmed Sister Song's heart.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, it was getting late, and Sister Song couldn't leave the counter for too long.
He repeatedly emphasized the pickup time and received Cen Yan's repeated promises that the goods would be delivered on time. Only then was he satisfied and went back to report to the department store manager.
Cen Yan thought that Sister Song had given her half a month.
They were to pick up the goods in half a month. The project was short and the task was heavy. Even if she and Qi Jingchuan wanted to stay in Lancheng and let Tian Ying suffer for a few more days, they couldn't.
Rather than teaching Tian Ying a lesson, the most important thing was to get his sisters-in-law involved in making money and to ensure his reputation was on the right track with the military leaders.
However, before returning to Dongming Island, she had something even more important to do.
