Mrs. Li signed a contract with the Gu family, stipulating that the Gu family would provide at least 5,000 toothbrushes, 2,000 tubes of toothpaste and shampoo, and 10,000 bars of soap and bar soap each month.
No packaging is needed; the Li family will take care of the boxes. They delivered them at the beginning of the month, and the cooperation started at the beginning of February.
The Gu family doesn't need to worry about the specific sales; they only need to focus on production.
The price was reasonable: one hundred toothbrushes for one tael of silver, totaling fifty taels.
The price of the scented soap and the regular soap was five coins per tael of silver and ten coins per tael of silver, respectively, totaling three thousand taels.
Shampoo costs one tael of silver per jar, totaling two thousand taels.
Although I knew that the price would increase significantly after Mrs. Li repackaged it, she still had to put effort into the packaging, and she also had sales channels.
If they were to buy it themselves, a set would cost five taels of silver, and they would have to order it from Master Yang, which would cost a lot of money. The jars for toothpaste and shampoo were made by a ceramics factory, and the soap boxes and soap dishes were also made of wood, but the cost would still be several hundred coins.
Now, they only need to do the packaging; they don't need to do the packaging themselves or sell it themselves. The Li family will send people over to help with the packaging.
The sisters earned more than five thousand taels of silver in half a month, which would surprise anyone who heard it.
If it weren't for the worry of not getting home before dark, Madam Li would have liked to have a chat with Cai Xiaolian about life!
She reluctantly took a jar of leftover chili scraps and the cooperation agreement home.
On the Gu family's side, the four sisters have already started construction.
...
When Mrs. Li arrived home, it was just getting dark.
She happily ran to Li Muyan's yard, and saw her silly son sitting in the yard, chin in hand, looking up at the moon, and felt a headache coming on.
Shouldn't these be the gestures and expressions of a young woman when she's thinking? How come they're on her son?
"Son, I have good news for you!" Madam Li walked over, sat down, and said with a smile.
"Mother, have you found a girl who has taken liberties with me?" Upon hearing this, Li Muyan immediately perked up.
"No! Mother has found her long-lost sister!" Madam Li calmly shook her head and said.
"Oh." Li Muyan deflated again, then paused for a moment, looked up at Madam Li, "I remember that my maternal grandparents only had one daughter, you, and the rest were all sons, right? Where did they get a daughter who was lost and living away from home?"
“She’s not their daughter! She’s my good sister! A sister by marriage, surnamed Cai. I’ll take you to meet your Aunt Cai sometime. She has two daughters, they’re very beautiful, one is still young, and the other is just turning 18 this year, they can be engaged!” Madam Li said with a smile.
"I don't want to see her! Mother, don't talk to me about any strange girls! I've already found a girl who's going to take responsibility for me, so stop trying to persuade me! Mother, please pay more attention to your son, stop looking for some long-lost sister, go look for your daughter-in-law! I've been looking for her for two days already, and you won't let me go out and look for her myself. Honestly," Li Muyan said dejectedly.
"Are you sure you don't want to see your Aunt Cai's daughter? She's really pretty and cute, sensible and gentle, and she's also very good at cooking..."
"I won't see her, I won't see her! Mother, you've had a long day, go back and rest! I'll go find that girl myself tomorrow, okay?" Before anyone could finish speaking, Li Muyan grabbed his mother and pulled her out of his courtyard.
"Alright then! But you're not allowed to beg your mother to introduce you to Aunt Cai's daughters anymore!" Madam Li said with a smile, her eyes darting around.
"Don't try to fool me! I won't! A girl has already given me a kiss, I won't betray her to find another girl, Mother, give up! Goodnight!" Li Muyan said righteously.
