Chapter 178 The Surprised Stall Owners and Bosses



"hiss."

"Uh, this, this, this..."

"this……"

After Lin Sen finished speaking, all the stall owners and bosses present looked at each other in surprise, their expressions quite complicated.

They were all intelligent people, so they naturally understood what Lin Sen meant.

I know Lin Sen wants to bundle the products together, just like when you buy the spice bag before, you have to buy small shrimp, small crabs and small yellow croakers as well.

Now, when they buy the secret-recipe seasoning in a gauze bag, they no longer need to buy small shrimp, small crabs, or small yellow croakers, but they do need to buy the corresponding Dongshan beer.

But for these stall owners and bosses...

They would rather buy small shrimp, small crabs, and small yellow croakers than buy Dongshan beer.

Because of the small shrimp, crabs, and yellow croakers, Lin Sen sells them at slightly higher prices. However, since these items have virtually no cost, even at higher prices, the increase won't be significant.

And after they buy it, they either set up a stall or open a shop.

Because ordinary people love to try new things, they enjoy spicy crayfish, spicy crabs, and spicy yellow croaker. So, after buying these crayfish, crabs, and yellow croakers from Lin Sen, they can sell them and make money. They won't lose money and be stuck with them!

But this beer is different now!

They had no idea whether the common people would accept the Dongshan Beer produced by Lin Sen's Dongshan Brewery.

Because beer is relatively expensive, if ordinary people don't accept it, they can buy large quantities of Dongshan beer from Lin Sen.

Won't it just tragically end up stuck in your own hands?

At that point, they'll lose everything!

Therefore, in this situation, compared to crayfish, small crabs, and small yellow croakers that are 100% guaranteed to sell and won't result in much loss even if some die, it's a better option.

They really didn't want to buy Dongshan Beer.

However, they dared not directly refuse Lin Sen.

After all, although Lin Sen didn't say it directly, everyone was smart enough to understand what he meant.

That means if you don't buy Dongshan Beer, the chance of getting the secret-recipe seasoning from Lin Sen is slim.

After all, bundled sales are inherently cruel.

Use a product that sells well to forcibly link it to a product that doesn't sell well.

This forces consumers to buy together!

"Don't worry, everyone, my Dongshan Beer is really reasonably priced!"

Scanning the group of hesitant stall owners and shopkeepers with complicated expressions, Lin Sen smiled and said, "Excuse me, if you live at the supply and marketing cooperative, how much would a pitcher of ten bottles of Linhai beer, West Lake beer, and Xunuquan beer cost?"

"Linhai Beer, a pitcher of ten bottles, costs four yuan and fifty cents!"

"West Lake Beer and Xunuquan Beer, a pitcher of ten bottles, both cost five yuan."

The stall owners and bosses all answered.

"I see."

"Based on this calculation, a bottle of Linhai beer costs 45 cents, while a bottle of West Lake beer and Xunuquan beer costs 50 cents!"

"And then you sell them?"

Lin Sen scanned the group of stall owners and shopkeepers: "Do you usually sell a bottle of West Lake Beer, Xunuquan Beer, or Linhai Beer at a stall or in a shop?"

"Linhai beer costs 45 cents to buy and sells for 50 cents a bottle."

"Xunüquan Beer and West Lake Beer both sell for six mao a bottle!"

"I don't earn much, just enough to make a living through hard work."

"That's right, if it's too expensive, nobody will buy it. There's nothing we can do about it."

"I sell them for a slightly higher price in the city. There's no Linhai Beer in the city, so I retail both Xunuquan Beer and West Lake Beer for seven cents a bottle!"

Amid Lin Sen's questioning, all the stall owners and bosses answered him loudly.

"This price isn't cheap."

"but."

Lin Sen's gaze swept intently over the group of stall owners and vendors: "My Dongshan beer, twelve bottles a pitcher, I'll only sell it to you for three cents a pitcher!"

"That's the price!"

As he spoke, Lin Sen held up three fingers to the group of stall owners and bosses.

"hiss!"

"What, three, three cents?"

"Only three cents a pitcher? And there are twelve bottles in a pitcher!"

"That means the cost price of a bottle is only a mere 25 cents?"

"That's half the price of West Lake Beer and Xunuquan Beer!"

"It's a full two cents cheaper than Linhai Beer!"

"My goodness, this is so cheap, such a great deal!"

The moment Lin Sen held up three fingers, all the stall owners and shopkeepers were startled. They stared at Lin Sen with wide eyes, utterly incredulous, confused, and suspicious.

After all, the price Lin Sen was selling it for was just too cheap!

"Brother Lin Sen, are you sure you're only selling a pitcher of twelve bottles for three yuan?"

"Brother Lin Sen, if you sell it so cheaply, how can you still make a profit?"

"Yeah, this is way too cheap! You're going to lose money selling it at such a low price, aren't you?"

“Brother Lin Sen, if you really want to sell it for three yuan a pitcher, then we can sell it for three mao or three mao a bottle at a cost price of 2 mao 5. In that case, compared to West Lake Beer and Xunuquan Beer which retail for six or seven mao a bottle, and Linhai Beer which retails for five mao a bottle, people will definitely prefer to buy Dongshan Beer.”

"Of course! If it were me, I would definitely buy Dongshan Beer too."

"Exactly! Although Dongshan Beer tastes slightly worse than West Lake Beer and Xunuquan Beer, it's cheap and has a strong kick!"
