Chapter 158 Free Tasting
Chao Chao also saw her mother's actions. She scratched her face in confusion, looked around, and when she saw that there was no one around, she quietly reminded, "Mom, this hasn't been paid for yet."
Jian Yunsang was stunned, and then found it funny to see the little girl looking so nervous.
She put another box on the cart and then smiled, "Let's pick out everything we want to buy and put it in the cart. When we go out, we can check out together."
Chao Chao was surprised, "Is this possible?"
"Of course, look at the others, are they all like this?"
Chao Chao was just amazed at the large number of things in the supermarket and didn't notice how the customers in the supermarket operated.
After her mother reminded her, she looked at other people and found that everyone was indeed directly checking the goods, putting them on the cart, and pushing them to the next shelf.
The people of Daqi under the sky found it unbelievable, how could it be like this?
Emperor Jingxuan put down the cup in his hand and squinted at the customers. Some of them were pushing carts, some were holding carts in their hands, and some were walking slowly in the supermarket with their hands in their pockets, behaving strangely.
The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice was very surprised. "So this supermarket allows customers to choose what they want and then pay for it? But this depends on the customers' awareness. What if they encounter a petty thief who hides the things and walks out? Wouldn't the supermarket suffer a great loss?"
And in his opinion, this supermarket model attracts the most petty theft.
If this happened in Daqi, those beggars who have nothing to eat and no clothes to wear, the idle hooligans, or those who want to take advantage of others would probably fill up this supermarket.
"They can even eat and drink their fill in the supermarket before leaving. Do the shops of later generations underestimate the evil of human nature?"
Emperor Jingxuan seemed to be thinking about something, and the Grand Tutor also narrowed his eyes, "Perhaps... this is the benefit of universal reading. Reading and knowing how to write can indeed make people more reasonable and have a stronger sense of shame."
An official whispered, "But there are 1.4 billion people, it's impossible to make everyone sensible, right?" How huge a project would that be?
Apart from anything else, no matter how many sensible people there are, there will always be those who take advantage of others. For such people, this supermarket is like a rat entering a rice warehouse, and they would be sorry if they didn't take some away.
For the people of Daqi, it is too unbelievable that they can choose the goods by themselves and then check out and pay for them.
You won't get such treatment in their shops. Some stores don't even let you touch anything. They just give you whatever you want and don't give you any room to choose.
But look at the supermarkets of later generations, what did they see?
There were several aunties selling vegetables at a booth. They threw aside the bad leaves and picked out the tenderest and best ones and put them in bags.
Is this too much? They don't let you choose like this at the market.
In this case, will anyone still buy vegetables of slightly inferior quality? If all these vegetables are thrown away, the supermarket will suffer huge losses.
Some people shook their heads and asked, "Can this supermarket stay open for long?"
The people of Daqi were talking about this. Some merchants originally wanted to see how grocery stores would be run in the future. They wondered if they could learn from them and maybe even make more money.
But in the current situation, besides the fact that this supermarket is really big, there is nothing else to think about. If they really learn this method, they will lose everything.
The merchants couldn't help but shook their heads and sighed.
Here, Jian Yunsang and the other two were shopping with great interest. They first bought some scattered fruits and snacks as they would be going to Jinwen Village in the next few days, so they had to prepare some necessary daily necessities.
Chaochao was so dazzled by the sight, especially because she didn't recognize many of the things. However, there were a few snacks that she seemed to have seen in the bag that Yuanyuan gave her.
After some hesitation, she chose those few.
In the end, Jian Yunsang helped her carry a lot of things. Chao Chao looked at her cart full of things and said hurriedly, "That's enough, Mom, that's enough."
Seeing this, Jian Yunsang could only stop and said, "Then Chaochao, if you see something you want, you must tell mom."
"good."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chao Chao looked curiously at a salesman beside him. In front of him was a small table with a small disposable paper cup on it, and green water was poured into the cup.
She looked at it curiously for a few more times, and the salesperson smiled and said to her, "Little friend, do you want to try our new drink?"
Chao Chao immediately shook his head, "I won't buy it."
The salesman immediately smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't buy it, just try it to see how it tastes."
As she was speaking, she saw Jian Yunsang standing beside her and handed her the paper cup very naturally.
Jian Yunsang also took it very smoothly, glanced at the brand on their table, and drank the drink in the paper cup.
After drinking it, he nodded, picked up a bottle of drink and looked at the ingredients, then said to Chao Chao, "It tastes okay, do you want to try it?"
Chao Chao hesitated for a moment, and seeing that the salesperson was still holding the cup in his hand and looking at her enthusiastically, she carefully took it and took a sip.
Jian Yunsang lowered his head and asked her, "How is it?"
Chao Chao frowned slightly and looked at the salesperson again, looking very hesitant.
Jian Yunsang understood. She returned the disposable paper cup to the salesperson and said with a smile, "Thank you. We'll take a look."
"Okay." The salesman didn't say much, but waved to Chao Chao, still smiling and saying enthusiastically, "Goodbye, little friend."
Chao Chao subconsciously waved her hand. When she walked more than ten meters, she looked back and then asked Jian Yunsang in a low voice, "Mom, we ate her food. Is it okay if we don't buy it?"
"It's okay. This is a food tasting activity in the supermarket. If we like the taste, we can buy it. If we don't like the taste, we don't have to buy it. There's no need to feel burdened. Besides, this supermarket is not very big. Some very big supermarkets have many food tasting booths. Some people can feel full after eating all the food, and they can save a lunch."
Chao Chao's eyes widened. How could this be possible? Would they really not lose out?
Merchants in Daqi, "..."
I originally wanted to learn it, but when I heard what Miss Jian said, my heart started beating fast.
They believed that if they really dared to hold this food tasting event, there would definitely be many people standing aside and eating until they were full.
However, it is not impossible to execute. As long as the conditional thresholds are set, it may actually be able to run.
Well, I'll plan carefully when I get back.
