After two days of hard work, the goods were finally produced and it was time to deliver them.
At 4:30 that morning, He Wenlin steamed the glutinous rice, then rode her tricycle, carrying ten plates of frozen, rock-hard dumplings and eight plates of steamed buns, to the farmers' market.
These types of products cannot be left at room temperature for too long, otherwise they will stick together and become unsellable.
So as soon as they arrived at the farmers' market, He Wenlin and Boss Guo quickly weighed the products and put them in the freezer, all in less than ten minutes.
Fortunately, it's nearby. If it were farther away, this business wouldn't be possible because low-temperature transportation isn't feasible. If we used refrigerated trucks for delivery, the price and minimum order quantity wouldn't be this high.
"After peeling, it weighs a total of 61.5 jin and costs 172.2 yuan," Li Yanhong said.
“Then I’ll give you 172 yuan,” He Wenlin said. “I’ll come over at 7:30 to do a trial promotion.”
At 7:30, He Wenlin was free, and the morning rush hour had just passed, which happened to be the peak time for customers at the farmers' market.
"Okay, then 7:30 it is."
After agreeing on a time, He Wenlin returned to the shop.
Today, because we have to do a dumpling tasting and promotion, the task is heavy and the time is tight. He Wenlin told everyone in advance that we must be at the store by six o'clock.
Although Aunt He works at a clothing factory, she got up very early today.
Once everyone had arrived, He Wenlin began a meeting to arrange the day's tasks.
"At 7:30, Shanshan and I will go to the farmers' market to do promotions. We will bring ten baskets each of steamed dumplings and xiaolongbao for free tasting."
“I’m fine with it,” He Shan immediately replied.
"Although we have already delivered the 60 jin of goods that we agreed on with Boss Guo in advance, we will definitely do well in business today because of the promotion. So we still need to keep packing and the supply must keep up."
Grandma, now that you can make xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), please make xiaolongbao after breakfast while the rest of you make dumplings.
Today's lunch is ham and chili scrambled eggs, green beans and pork stir-fry, plus cucumber salad. They're all simple and easy to cook, so I can prepare them at 9:30.
We've just started selling frozen products, so it'll definitely be tough at first. But I'll say it again: once the business takes off, everyone will get their share of bonuses!
He Wenjun: "Linlin, whatever you say, we'll do."
Lin Fei: "Yes! I'll listen to you!"
"Then I won't waste any more time, everyone get to work!"
As soon as He Wenlin finished speaking, everyone started working with great enthusiasm!
Time flies, especially when you're very busy.
He Wenlin rode her tricycle, carrying He Shan, a folding table, and twenty drawers of food, and rushed to the farmers' market without stopping.
The sun isn't too strong at this time, so many people choose to go out to buy groceries and breakfast.
When He Wenlin and He Shan had their meal, the farmers' market was already crowded.
Upon seeing He Wenlin, Li Yanhong quickly helped take down the folding table and placed it next to the freezer containing frozen dumplings.
Then I put the steamed buns and dumplings I brought on the table.
He Wenlin took out two masks and handed them to He Shan: "Put these on. We'll be hawking and introducing our products later. If we don't wear masks, saliva can easily get into the food, which won't give others a good impression."
In this weather, and with no air conditioning in the farmers' market, wearing a mask makes it even more uncomfortable.
Despite He Shan's boldness in going to the factory to solicit orders, she is actually quite reserved when it comes to publicly hawking her wares.
He Wenlin is different.
She worked her way up from the bottom in the department store, so she was very good at hawking.
"Dear uncles and aunties, don't miss out! We're offering free samples of clean and delicious steamed dumplings and xiaolongbao!"
He Wenlin shouted, and sure enough, she attracted a lot of attention.
He Wenlin carried steamed dumplings and xiaolongbao directly to the customer: "Grandma, steamed dumplings and xiaolongbao, have a taste. It's okay if you don't buy them, just try them first."
He Wenlin gave gifts to everyone she met, and her smile never faded.
She is naturally beautiful, with two dimples when she smiles, and a sweet tongue. Most people have a good impression of this kind of girl.
There are some people in this world who, when faced with something free, will eat it all up, afraid of losing out.
However, some people feel bad if they don't buy anything after you've been so enthusiastic and tried your samples.
Coincidentally, He Wenlin met the latter.
"How much is this? The taste is alright."
"It smells delicious. How much is it? I'll buy some for breakfast."
...
He Wenlin could tell they were locals from their accents, so she quickly explained in the local dialect, "We don't sell the cooked ones, we sell the raw ones. The steamed buns and dumplings are 3.5 yuan per jin, 3.5 yuan, you won't lose out!"
Hearing this novel advertising slogan, the customers found it very interesting and all of them smiled.
He Wenlin led them towards the freezer, and Li Yanhong, being a seasoned businesswoman, quickly came over to greet them.
Although He Shan was too embarrassed to hawk her wares like He Wenlin, she would approach everyone she met and say, "Hello, freshly steamed dumplings and xiaolongbao, feel free to try them for free."
"Hello, ma'am, this is our store's new product. You're welcome to try it for free."
...
The samples were quickly finished.
The customers also surrounded Guo Dali and his wife's stall.
You buy half a jin, I buy one jin, and he buys two jin.
The other merchants were green with envy at the sight. Damn, how much money are they going to make?
People like to join in the fun and are curious. When they see so many people buying things like they're fighting for them, they also join in.
