Chapter 358 Rapid Career Development Edition
"Mom, hold on tight, I'm going to speed up."
Li Banxia nodded, and Su Laosan gripped the handlebars, bent over, and pedaled with all his might towards the health center.
That intense feeling made Li Banxia swallow back all the words she was about to say, and she sighed softly.
On the way, when he met acquaintances who greeted him, they all told him to slow down because he had fallen.
He greeted people with a smile, and on a whim, showed off his one-handed skills, which made him even happier when his acquaintances laughed and scolded him.
He also comforted Li Banxia, "Mom, don't worry, I'm holding your hand tightly. I'd rather drop myself than drop you..."
Passing by his own grocery store, you can see a lot of people queuing up.
As the year draws to a close, Su Laosan's business is booming.
He initially secured the supply of vegetables and meat to the company cafeteria through Yao's introduction. After gradually becoming familiar with the person in charge, he used a series of methods, including entertaining guests and giving gifts, to thoroughly expand the other party's network.
The other party introduced him to other relatives and friends who ran the canteen. Relatives introduced relatives, and friends introduced friends. The person in charge received a kickback. The ingredients that Su Laosan provided were excellent in terms of freshness, quality, and price. Su Laosan himself was also a good-natured person who dared to talk about anything. There were not many roundabout ways to communicate with him, so many people were willing to cooperate with him.
While Su Laosan gave away a lot of benefits through this move, he also secured a significant amount of supplies for the unit's canteen.
Within a few months, he became quite famous in the cafeteria's food supply circle.
"Oh, right, Mom, the school wants us to open a couple more health and wellness services, and they'd like us to go there when we have time..."
Li Banxia nodded, then, remembering that her son couldn't see, said "okay" again.
Su Laosan went to the health center every day and saw the changes that persisting in health preservation brought to people. He felt that this was quite important. When the canteen's food supply was opened in the second half of the year, he discussed it with Li Banxia.
Could you make a more accessible version of her medicinal cuisine, combining the store's all-natural fruits and vegetables with Li Banxia's medicinal cuisine to create a more popular and healthy version of medicinal cuisine?
Li Banxia thought it was feasible, but since not everyone would like the taste of food with added drugs, she suggested that Su Laosan select two canteens as pilot sites to observe the feedback before deciding whether to promote it.
Even the most delicious food will have its fans and detractors. However, many people who saw the notice posted at the window explained that these dishes combine medicinal properties with the inherent properties of vegetables. When used to a certain extent, they can help the body cleanse itself of toxins and improve health. After their blood and energy are replenished, many people who didn't like the food expressed their willingness to try it. The menu will be adjusted periodically to give diners more choices.
When the revenue of each window is settled at the end of the month, the health care window earns twice as much as the regular window.
As those who persevere see the results, more and more people begin to pay attention to health preservation.
Su Laosan and Li Banxia observed the changing trend and decisively opened health food windows in all the canteens they cooperated with.
Some organizations were not comfortable entrusting the project to Su Laosan, so they bypassed him and went directly to Li Banxia's health center for cooperation.
Li Banxia smiled and gave Su Lao a three-cent bonus. The mother and son worked together to earn money, and their income doubled.
Su Laosan's general store is too small to display all the different kinds of goods.
He simply separated the department store into two sections: one for fruits, one for vegetables, and even sold live animals and butcher meat separately.
To avoid customers finding it troublesome to go to several stores to buy things, we specially created a promotional activity.
You get discounts for spending a certain amount, and they offer free delivery after a certain amount. You can also combine orders from several stores, and there's a free lucky draw with no empty prizes. Even the worst prize is a few green onions.
He arranged for the chicken, duck, goose, fish, and shrimp shop to slaughter them on-site for free, so that they wouldn't have to bring them home dirty and make a mess. They could take them home clean, which was not only worry-free but also convenient.
The event was a huge hit from the very beginning.
Every day, the queues for buying live animals to be slaughtered can stretch for a mile.
This forced competitors to simultaneously shut down this business.
They also sell pork, beef, and mutton on the same day they slaughter the animals. They offer free scallions and ginger to be ground into minced meat, or you can buy vegetables from their vegetable shop and have them ground into minced meat.
This event is even more remarkable; every day, people line up to use the free machines to grind meat.
Business was so good that competitors were cursing them out.
They were cursing while setting up the machine, but where are these machines so easy to find?
Su Laosan's item was bought from a foreign businessman at a friendly price by Yao's eldest sister-in-law during an investment promotion conference.
It's no use them being envious.
Some merchants, feeling indignant, set up a meat-chopping event at their doorsteps, offering to chop meat into minced meat for free if customers bought meat or vegetables from them.
The event was indeed attractive, but the manual chopping was too slow. It took half a day for one person to queue. After only two days, the merchants couldn't handle it anymore. Who could stand constantly swinging their arms to chop filling?
Su Laosan's activities had only been going on for a month, but he had already made nearly 10,000 yuan just from the free slaughter of live animals and the free distribution of scallions, ginger and minced meat. It was amazing that something that cost only a few cents could generate such a substantial profit.
Su Laosan was both surprised and delighted, thinking that making money was really easy.
Sister-in-law Yao said there were even more convenient machines in Hong Kong. Coincidentally, a Hong Kong businessman was going back after attending an investment promotion conference, so Su Laosan took advantage of Sister-in-law Yao's connection and went to Hong Kong with him.
He spent a week in the port city and bought two electronic weighing machines. New machines were too expensive, so he bought second-hand ones. The machines no longer require manual weighing; you just plug them in, put the vegetables, fruits, and meats on them, and they will display the unit price and weight.
They even made a detour around the port city, and on New Year's Day, when the two families gathered for a reunion dinner, they returned with gifts they had bought for the whole family.
The favor owed is to Sister-in-law Yao. Although she always says we're all family, no one owes anyone anything. She helped him with all her efforts, and he's not a fool who doesn't understand social etiquette.
When it comes to buying things for his nephews and nieces, Su Laosan doesn't hold back at all, spending hundreds or even thousands of yuan on children's clothes, shoes, and toys.
There was also a jewelry box that I specially brought back from the port city for my sister-in-law, containing a set of metal jewelry.
The jewelry was bought by his older brother with money he had saved up little by little by tutoring others; it was a style that wasn't available in mainland China.
The eldest daughter-in-law's eyes crinkled with joy.
Sister-in-law Yao had a sharp eye and noticed that the wood used to make the jewelry box was more expensive than all the other hardware. She knew that Su Laosan had put a lot of effort into it and was extremely satisfied with him.
She supported him, but frankly, it was all because of her sister-in-law, Jian Shu.
Su Laosan received the benefits and was willing to spend the money on JianShu and his two children, which shows he has a conscience.
"Sister Yuzhen, this is for you. They say it's a new style that's just become popular in Hong Kong this year, and it's filled with goose down..."
