Chapter 17: Earn 61 Yuan vaZq (jhssd)
Qin Qing gritted her teeth and hurried on her way. When she arrived at the textile factory, it was already dawn.
Ding-a-ling...
Bicycle bells kept ringing as workers rode their bikes towards the factory. Qin Qing found a place to put down her backpack.
Soon, there were people carrying vegetables on their backs, holding baskets of eggs, and selling flour, all standing by.
But she looked around and saw that no one else was selling fish except her.
"Fresh snakehead fish, freshly caught, so fresh!"
"Old people eat it to prolong their lifespan, women eat it to whiten their skin, and children eat it to help them become the top scorers in the imperial examinations."
Qin Qing set up the stall and started shouting.
Tang Min looked at her in a daze. She was still a little timid. She didn't expect her daughter to start shouting directly.
"How are you selling this fish?"
An auntie wearing a blue cloth dress and with her short hair neatly tucked behind her ears came forward carrying a basket and asked.
"One pound for one dollar and two cents."
One dollar and twenty cents?
Tang Min glared. Didn’t her daughter say the market price was 90 cents last night?
"It's too expensive! Pork is only 1.3 yuan per pound, and your fish is almost worth the price of pork."
The aunt shook her head frantically, the price was too expensive.
"Aunt, this snakehead fish is rich in protein and more nutritious than pork. If you have children, make some soup with it and they'll definitely grow taller!"
Qin Qing's words came one after another.
The aunt said it was expensive, but she showed no intention of moving.
Several people who were buying groceries nearby were also attracted by Qin Qing's fresh words.
"Everyone, look, this fish is raised at home, it's so fresh!" Tang Min also shouted honestly.
The fish in the water also jumped.
The water splashed high.
"Wow! This fish is really fresh!"
"Auntie, if you buy one, the price is 1.2 yuan. If you buy two, it's 1.1 yuan. If you buy three, it's 1 yuan per pound. If you buy four or more, I'll give you a bargain price! 90 cents per pound!"
Qin Qing's words came out one by one.
Everyone's heart started beating fast when they heard this. If they bought four, the price would be only 30 cents different!
"One of your fish weighs two or three pounds. Who among us has the time to buy ten pounds of fish to take home?"
The aunt in blue is diligent in her thoughts, but she doesn’t shop frequently.
Qin Qing smiled slightly. "I only said you can buy four, not that you must buy four by yourself. Why don't you call someone over and we can all split the order, right?"
"Group order?"
The aunt in blue was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and grabbed a few people around her who were watching the fun.
"Sister Ma, Sister Liu, let's split the order! It's only one dollar per pound if we buy three!"
"We've already bought three, and if we get one more person together, we can buy four. That'll only be 90 cents a pound!"
"Yes, yes, doesn't Sister Zhang like to eat fish? I'll ask her to buy some!"
The aunt in blue said that wind is rain and immediately turned around to call someone.
"Oh, oh, oh, I want to buy one too!"
"There are four of us here, so let's buy four!"
"Boss, wait a minute, I'll go get someone right away. Leave four for us!"
A group of people immediately gathered in front of Qin Qing, and they all rushed forward excitedly, holding money to buy fish.
I’m afraid that I’ll be a step late and miss the fish.
Tang Min was completely stunned. She had never seen anyone rushing to pay for something.
"Mom, quick! Four fish over here!"
Qin Qing was extremely busy, and after she reminded him, Tang Min also hurried to work harder.
The mother and daughter began to concentrate on selling fish.
The people who were setting up stalls nearby were so envious when they saw how good the mother and daughter's business was.
Where did this little girl come from? She is so good at doing business!
In less than half an hour, all the fish in Qin Qing's two baskets were sold out.
Qin Qing didn't have a wallet, so she used a fish basket to hold the money. Looking at the fish basket full of money, she smiled brightly.
"Qing'er, how come you're so good at selling things!"
Tang Minmin sighed and said that if she were in his place, she would also buy a fish to take home just for the cheap price.
"I learned it from Pinduoduo."
Group buying is indeed a great tool for sales promotion.
Qin Qing only used a little bit of the method, but it was quite effective.
"Who is Pinxixi?"
Tang Min was curious. At this time, the aunt in blue clothes who came at the beginning came hurriedly with another aunt.
"Boss! You're not going to sell out of fish, are you? Sister Zhang, I told you to hurry up, but you wouldn't believe me!"
Deng Shufen looked at the backpack which was filled with only clear water and clapped her hands in regret.
"How would I know you have to rob people to buy fish? They're just petty idiots."
Zhang Guihua rolled her eyes with a look of disdain.
"I shouldn't have called you!"
"Next time, please don't call me for something like this. I'm too lazy to run!"
Deng Shufen felt very sick. She had been thinking about her for a long time, but she didn't appreciate it.
"Auntie, I'm saving your fish for you."
Qin Qing caught two fish. The lady in blue came to talk to her from the beginning, and it was she who got people to work harder.
She had been keeping an eye on her and hadn't come back yet, so she left two for her.
"You're such a real girl!"
Deng Shufen's eyes lit up when she saw Qin Qing take out two fish.
"I told you, this fish isn't that easy to sell. Forget it, just give me one."
Zhang Guihua stretched out her hand and wanted to take the fish.
Deng Shufen snatched the fish away.
"Forget it, Sister Zhang. I don't think you really want to buy fish, so I won't bother you. Boss, I want both of these fish!"
Deng Shufen is a straightforward person.
She thought that Zhang Guihua was the deputy factory director's lover, and since she had just arrived in the county, he thought of her no matter what he did.
As a result, people look down on these petty-minded people who are greedy for a bargain!
"Okay, Auntie. I'll give you a discount. 0.80 a pound. Is that okay with you?"
"Alright, alright! Oh, you're so honest!"
Deng Shufen's face was blossoming with smiles.
I didn't expect that I would be the last one to come and get such a great bargain.
Zhang Guihua's face instantly darkened and she said coldly.
"This fish is pitch black. Who knows if it was raised in stinky water? I think it's dirty!"
After saying that, Zhang Guihua turned around and left without looking back.
"Auntie, these two fish weigh a total of 4.2 jins. I'll charge you 4 jins, which is 3.2 yuan in total."
"Okay, okay!"
Deng Shufen smiled and nodded. After paying Qin Qing, she took the fish from her.
"Girl, will you come to sell fish tomorrow?"
“Sell it!”
"Okay! I'll go to the factory and promote you, and bring them to buy your fish tomorrow!"
"Okay, thank you, Auntie!"
"Thank you for what? I have to thank you."
Deng Shufen was carrying two fish. Zhang Guihua's disgust didn't affect her at all. She left humming a song.
"Qing'er!! We made 58.5 yuan today, plus the 3.2 yuan we just earned, that's 61.25 yuan!"
61 yuan!
Tang Min's hands were shaking as she held the money. When had she ever seen so much money?
You have to know that in the countryside, after a whole year, excluding the money spent on buying seeds and fertilizers, it is already very good to earn 100 yuan a year.
They earned 61 yuan that day!
