"I wouldn't give this price to anyone else. On my first day, I plan to put up a sign here with a clear price, and I won't give out popsicles anymore."
He dragged the popsicle box over to take a look; "There aren't many left."
She touched the smooth jade bowl and said, "Hey, young man, bring me two big bowls, two small bowls, and two popsicles. I'll take them! Do you think it's okay?"
"This..." Chu Yiqi looked at Taozhi.
Taozhi was laughing in her heart, but on the surface she looked embarrassed: "Give it to her. After all, we just opened the store. We can't sell it like this in the future."
Chu Yiqi smiled and said, "Yes."
He looked at the aunt in front of him: "Sister-in-law, my sister agreed, I will wrap it for you."
He took the newspaper and wrapped the bowl.
Two large bowls for one dollar, two small bowls for 1 yuan, and two popsicles.
The aunt gave him a dime and felt that she had made a fortune.
She happily ate the bowl and popsicle.
Taozhi looked at Chu Yiqi with admiration.
A large bowl should cost 40 cents, and a small bowl 30 cents, but he initially said a small bowl cost 40 cents, and then when people were hesitating, he reduced the price by 10 cents, making them feel that they were getting a good deal.
Then I gave them two popsicles——
In fact, he has already earned more money than originally thought.
She earned one dollar from this order. She only took 30 cents from the big bowl and 20 cents from the small bowl. The extra money was his no matter how much he sold.
Chu Yiqi used the same routine to sell things afterwards, but he also changed his methods.
"How much is this tea set?" Someone took a fancy to the beautiful red clay tea set.
The man was wearing a Zhongshan suit and looked like he had plenty of money.
Chu Yiqi looked at the cup and the pot, and sized up the man: "Two yuan and a dime, and I'll give you two popsicles."
It's obvious that the person in front of me is not short of money.
He was a little surprised, but reached out and touched the teapot. It felt a bit like purple clay. Could this be purple clay?
But it has more red clay, and the surface looks like just ordinary frosted.
He felt a little regretful. If it were purple clay, it would definitely not appear here.
Taozhi watched him staring at the teapot. Did this guy think it was purple clay?
In fact, it is a very similar material, red clay sand, which is much cheaper than purple clay.
It’s even cheaper than the material of the bowl, but it’s a set, and it’s easy to match and look at, so it’s so expensive.
That's why she sells it so cheaply, but it's as exquisite as purple clay.
The man glanced at Chu Yiqi and said, "Wrap it up for me."
He had enough money, but after shopping around, this tea set was the one he was most satisfied with.
"Yes." Chu Yiqi quickly wrapped it up in newspaper.
The man looked up at Chu Yiqi and said, "Next time you have similar tea sets, keep them for me."
Chu Yiqi was slightly stunned: "Are they sending it to your home?"
He shook his head: "No, I come here every day."
It is clear to everyone that many big shots do not want to reveal that they have bought things in black markets, so they do not reveal the address.
Chu Yiqi nodded: "Hey, if there is any, I will keep it for you. Before you come, I will sell it to someone else."
He nodded and planned to leave after paying.
Chu Yiqi quickly took out a popsicle from the box: "Here are two popsicles for you."
"I don't eat sweets." He took the food and walked away.
Chu Yiqi watched him leave, then looked at Sister Xia.
Taozhi acted as a passerby the whole time. She came here just to see if Chu Yiqi could sell things. Now it seems that he is a very qualified businessman.
"Sister..." Chu Yiqi still couldn't believe it. She sold it for an extra dollar.
Taozhi smiled and said, "You can see that he is not short of money, right?"
Chu Yi nodded: "Yes, I saw the watch he was wearing, it was gold, I think he should not be short of this dollar."
Besides, he really likes this tea set, and the price is not too high.
So, he only added one dollar.
"Sure." Taozhi did not object to his approach. In the dark, some people you see today may not be seen again in the future.
Making money is urgent, so she doesn't object to this situation.
Chu Yi was happy because his family could have enough food to eat every day.
His eyes were a little moist. Could he live like this?
If he had money, he would first treat his mother's illness and then send his younger brothers and sisters to school.
He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and continued to work hard to sell bowls, trying to keep every customer who came to look at the bowls.
Once it got dark, the bowls were finally sold out.
Taozhi was not taken out to sell again, after all, Chu Yiqi was here.
Chu Yiqi gave all his money to Taozhi, and he also earned a dollar.
Chu Yiqi felt as if in a dream. He still didn't expect that he could earn so much.
Taozhi thought Chu Yiqi was very clever. She said to him, "From now on, this place will be yours to sell. Do you have any place to put the goods? I'll have others bring them over and put them in a stacking area. I'll come up once a month or two weeks to restock your stock and settle the payment."
Chu Yi's eyes were a little moist: "Sister... I'm afraid I will disappoint your expectations."
Taozhi didn't know why he suddenly lost confidence. She patted his shoulder and said, "Xiaoyi, the most important thing in doing business is integrity. I believe in you, and you believe in me."
"Even though we can only sell it in black markets now, I believe we can become a bigger business in the future, so as long as we have a clear conscience, that's all that matters."
His everyday sales tricks were harmless.
So she can accept it.
Chu Yiqi asked in a daze: "Can I really do this? You don't think I'm young... Although I'm almost fourteen, do you really believe me?"
In fact, he felt that the previous day, he was just like in a dream.
Even now, he still couldn't believe that he earned one dollar a day.
Taozhi patted his shoulder and said, "It's getting late. Let's rent a small place nearby tomorrow and store the goods there."
Chu Yiqi thought for a moment and said, "Sister, I know there's a place nearby where we can store things."
"Come with me."
The two men packed up the things on the stall and left.
Others who were selling similar things were all envious.
"People who usually buy bowls look at every store and buy from theirs straight away."
"Yeah, I sold a lot less today than yesterday!"
"I wonder where those two siblings got such beautiful bowls."
The aunt selling jars was also jealous. She heard the discussion and joined in the conversation: "I heard that they got it from another province, maybe from Jingxi."
"Of course it is. The bowls over there are famous for their beauty. I'll go get some too."
"Me too!"
Everyone was thinking about getting some of those big bowls to sell.
-
Taozhi and Chu Yiqi came to a nearby place where there were many small houses.
"This is a place where black market people pile up their goods, and there are people guarding it. But the prices are quite high, costing tens of dollars a month."
Calculated this way, the stall fee is one yuan per month and the rent is also one yuan.
Ten dollars!
Taozhi decided on the spot—
