Shen Huanxi was very enthusiastic about opening the factory and even asked them to help. It seemed a little inappropriate for Dong Zhenxiong to say this at this time, but this was indeed a problem that had to be clarified.
Kong Yingjun glanced at Dong Zhenxiong and also looked at Shen Huanxi.
"Xiao Shen, I want to ask you this question too. Everything has its priorities. If you do two things at the same time, one will definitely be delayed."
"I think so too, Xiao Shen. People have limited energy. If you focus on two things, you will always neglect the other one."
…
Everyone started talking, and they all thought of this problem.
Shen Huanxi looked at them seriously.
In fact, she was very relieved and happy to hear them ask this question, which shows that they all care about the Three Norths Project and do not want the work of the Three Norths Project to be affected.
"There will be no delay. First of all, when the sea buckthorn berries are ripe, it happens to be the winter vacation for our command.
In autumn and winter, especially after it snows, we cannot carry out tree planting and frost prevention work, so we have a lot of free time.
It was at that time that we started to purchase sea buckthorn berries and make sea buckthorn juice, so there was no conflict between the two and we could take care of both.
I am also very aware of this and I trust my colleagues in my own unit, so I came to you for help.
Didn't you realize that I basically only looked for you and not people outside our unit? It's because I don't trust people other than my colleagues.
What you need to do business is passion, and more importantly, cooperation and mutual assistance. We are busy in spring and summer, and free in autumn and winter, which is the most suitable time. This is why I found my colleagues." Shen Huanxi explained solemnly.
Firstly, it dispelled everyone's doubts, and secondly, she wanted to tell them that she allowed them to come to her factory because they were colleagues in her Sanbei Command.
What she meant was that if they were no longer her colleagues in the Three Norths Project, she might not give them the opportunity to make money.
Shen Huanxi didn't want any of them to give up their jobs in the Sanbei Command just because they could make money from her.
Everyone felt relieved when they heard her say that it would not affect their work.
"Okay, then we'll follow you and do it well!"
"Yes, we will definitely do our best."
…
"Yeah." Shen Huanxi nodded.
She saw that they were wearing the simplest clothes and the cheapest cloth shoes, but their eyes were filled with the most sincere enthusiasm.
In this day and age, you can make a lot of money doing anything. They are all educated people with knowledge, culture and brains, but they choose a career with such low income.
Even if they wanted to work for the government, there were many leisurely positions available, but why did they choose to join the Three Norths? Shen Huanxi didn't believe that they had no feelings for their hometowns and didn't want their hometowns to be better.
She remembered that the average life expectancy of the first batch of reforestation workers in the Three Norths Project was only in their fifties, and one can imagine the hardships behind this.
It is this group of people with the same passion that Shen Huanxi is determined to lead them to make money and live a better life.
Because they deserve it.
"Everyone, listen to me. Sea buckthorn fruit is a specialty of our northwest. It is not found in the south of the Yangtze River, the northeast of the Yangtze River, or the south of China. I make sea buckthorn juice because I want to make use of our sea buckthorn fruit resources in the northwest and not waste them.
If one day the sea buckthorn juice I make can be sold to more places, such as outside the province or to the south, it will also be a Northwest business card for us.
Do you remember the oath we took when we first joined the company? We said that one day, we would make the deserts and Gobi deserts in the northwest completely disappear, and our northwest would truly become an oasis and an ecological barrier for our motherland.
By then, we will be able to show the world a different Northwest, and let the people of the country and the world know our Northwest again. Seabuckthorn fruit is also a specialty of our Northwest, and we should let the people of the country and the world know it. "
"Okay, we will let the whole world recognize our Northwest again!" Dong Junxiong was the first to shout excitedly.
Everyone suddenly became more enthusiastic. Shen Huanxi looked at their expressions, as if he saw them taking the oath of office on the day they joined the company.
With the help of such a group of colleagues who truly love the Northwest, Shen Huanxi feels much more at ease.
"Huanxi, why are you just talking to them? You didn't even treat them well. Come here and have a drink of water first. It must be hard for everyone to come here specially." Zhang Guifen came out of the kitchen holding a teapot and bowls.
"Have a glass of water to moisten your throat, and then try the sea buckthorn juice that I made." Xiao Shanhe also came over to greet them.
Shen Huanxi looked over and found that the man was holding a pot of sea buckthorn juice, which she had made today.
Everyone became interested when they heard that they could try sea buckthorn juice.
"Thank you, Auntie."
"Thank you, Auntie. You've worked hard."
"Comrade Xiao, thank you for your hard work."
…
Everyone went to drink some water first so as not to let Zhang Guifen down.
After drinking the water, use your own drinking bowl to get some sea buckthorn juice.
In a place like Yunnan, where sea buckthorn fruit is produced in abundance, everyone is familiar with sea buckthorn fruit. Everyone knows that the fruit is sour and has a strange smell.
They dared to try the sea buckthorn berries brought by Xiao Shanhe because of their trust in Shen Huanxi.
Unexpectedly, after tasting it, everyone said it tasted good.
"We heard from Shaohua that it tasted good before, and we never thought it would be so delicious."
"I told you it tasted good, but you didn't believe me last time." Li Shaohua, the only one who had drunk sea buckthorn juice before, was a little curious.
After saying this, she looked at Shen Huanxi:
"Why does it taste a little different from what I drank last time? It seems to be better and has a very unique aroma, which I didn't taste the last time I drank it."
"I updated the juicing recipe and added some natural spices. I hope you all think it tastes good. If you all think it tastes good, it means that other people will like this juice too and it can be sold." Shen Huanxi said.
"This is not just delicious, it's so delicious! Huanxi, don't worry! This will definitely sell!" Kong Yingjun said.
The others nodded and said it tasted good and would definitely sell well.
Xiao Shanhe poured each of them half a bowl more, and the juice he had brought out was finished. He wanted to go in and get another pot, but was stopped by Dong Zhenxiong.
"Comrade Xiao, please don't go in again. This is the juice you want to sell. Don't let us drink it all. Then what will you sell?"
"Comrade Xiao, are you going to go in and get us some juice? No, really."
"Yeah, no, no, we just want to taste it. If we want to drink it, we can buy it later."
"Don't let us come here to help you today, but end up causing trouble for you."
…
Everyone rushed over and grabbed Xiao Shanhe.
"Okay, Shanhe, since everyone says so, there's no need to go back to get it. Let's quickly arrange things while we have time."
"This is the schedule I wrote according to Huanxi's plan. You can take a look at it." Xiao Shanhe took out his notebook.
Shen Huanxi looked at Xiao Shanhe with some confusion.
When did she say what the plan was?
Xiao Shanhe smiled at her when he saw her surprised expression. Now Shen Huanxi understood that it was this man who had made the arrangements for her.
"You all can take a look and just follow what is written on the schedule." Shen Huanxi smiled at Xiao Shanhe and said to his colleagues.
Seeing that she trusted him so much without even looking at the schedule he made, Xiao Shanhe happily passed the schedule to Shen Huanxi's colleagues.
According to Xiao Shanhe's schedule, this group of people was divided into two groups. One group was responsible for setting up a stall on Nanjing Road to let people taste the drinks, and the other group stayed at the Xiao family's place.
In addition, he also added a lot of content, such as how they should introduce sea buckthorn juice to people who are trying it when setting up a stall, and how to answer when someone wants to ask where to buy sea buckthorn juice.
Xiao Shanhe even thought of various emergencies and solutions.
For example, how should you respond if you encounter someone who is frivolous and wants to drink too much, or someone who is causing trouble.
It was only when Shen Huanxi and her colleagues looked at it together that they found out what was written in Xiao Shanhe's schedule. After reading it all, they found that this man had made every possible arrangement.
Then what does she have to do with it?
"Okay, Comrade Xiao, Xiao Shen, then we will follow your schedule. So I and my team will go to Nanjing Road to set up a stall with sea buckthorn juice?" Dong Zhenxiong asked.
Xiao Shanhe had heard from Shen Huanxi that Dong Zhenxiong and Li Shaohua were more reliable, so he let these two people be the team leaders of the two groups respectively.
Dong Zhenxiong was the team leader of the group that set up the stall on Nanjing Road, and Li Shaohua was the team leader of the group that set up the stall near Xiao's house.
"Why is Xiao Shen not here? What are you doing, Xiao Shen?" Kong Yingjun asked.
"Do you even need to ask this? Xiao Shen is the boss's wife. How can she be asked to do all these things herself, such as setting up the stall for people to taste the drinks? She must have more important things to do, right, Xiao Shen?" Dong Zhenxiong analyzed.
"Yeah." Shen Huanxi nodded.
"Thank you all for the help. Let's get started now. I have already packed the sea buckthorn juice." Shen Huanxi said as he took his colleagues into the kitchen and handed the packed sea buckthorn juice to the two groups.
The group going to Nanjing Road was asked to bring a few buckets filled with water.
The sea buckthorn juice is given to people in bowls for tasting. The bowls that have been used are washed with clean water so that the next person can taste it.
Shen Huanxi helped everyone pack their things, and then saw Jiang Xiaomei coming back with a few empty mineral water bottles.
"Huanxi, I found the mineral water bottle you asked me to find."
"When will I ..."
"Thank you, Comrade Jiang." Xiao Shanhe said in front of Shen Huanxi.
Now Shen Huanxi understood that it must have been arranged by this man again.
When she looked at Xiao Shanhe, Xiao Shanhe smiled at her.
"You and Comrade Jiang will take these mineral water bottles to fill with sea buckthorn juice and take them to nearby hotels to let the hotel owners taste them."
"Okay." Shen Huanxi nodded.
Thanks to Xiao Shanhe's arrangements, she was able to start tasting the wine much earlier than originally planned.
Many children who lived nearby were already waiting outside the yard. Seeing how enthusiastic these children were, Shen Huanxi and Xiao Shanhe simply let them in first.
"Huahua, Ah Hong, Xiao Ai, Jingjing, you are here. Do you want to taste the sea buckthorn juice? Come in quickly and I'll give it to you." Shen Huanxi greeted them.
Several children couldn't wait to come in, and Li Shaohua began to pour sea buckthorn juice for them.
At this time, Xiao Shanhe had already called Zhang Guifen to help Shen Huanxi fill the empty spring water bottle brought by Jiang Xiaomei with sea buckthorn juice.
Shen Huanxi and Jiang Xiaomei put the bottle of mineral water filled with sea buckthorn juice on the back seat of the bicycle, placed a few bowls in the bicycle basket, put some cloth underneath to prevent them from falling, and then rode out together.
"Huanxi, you have managed to arrange so much in such a short time." On the way there, Jiang Xiaomei was a little surprised.
"Well... yes." Xiao Shanhe had already told Jiang Xiaomei that they had asked her to find the mineral water bottle together. If she told Jiang Xiaomei now that she did not participate in these plans, wouldn't that be a slap in Xiao Shanhe's face?
"Xiaomei, where did you find these mineral water bottles?" Shen Huanxi remembered that drinking mineral water was not popular in the mainland at that time. If you wanted to buy it, you could only buy it in some big cities.
In the future, famous brands like Wahaha and Nongfu Spring have not yet appeared. The bottles that Jiang Xiaomei brought over were labeled "Ankang Mineral Water". This is a brand that Shen Huanxi has never seen in the future. It should have been eliminated in the tide of the times.
Jiang Xiaomei chuckled.
"We have plenty of them at home. I don't know where Robo got these mineral water bottles from. Robo is rich and knows many capable people. Who knows which friend of his gave these to him?
I even found a few unopened bottles, opened the caps and poured all the mineral water into the toilet to flush. I was unhappy to think that these mineral water were given by his friends. Maybe some of them were the ones who stopped me from finding a private investigator. I just wanted to waste the things they gave me.
Fortunately, these mineral water bottles are still useful, so I didn't waste them. Anyway, I can use these mineral water bottles to hold sea buckthorn juice, rather than putting it directly in the kettle...ah!" Jiang Xiaomei was halfway through her speech when she suddenly realized something.
"Huanxi, I'm sorry. I get angry when I talk about Luo Bo, and I accidentally said so much. Today is the day to promote sea buckthorn juice. I shouldn't mention such an unlucky person and those unhappy things at this time."
"It's okay, it's okay. You don't have to only report good news to your friends, just like you came to help me share my worries today, I should also help you share your worries. Telling me these shows that you treat me as a friend.
But Xiaomei, have you ever thought about this? Luo Bo is a local tyrant in Yunnan City. You will definitely not be able to find out anything about him if you ask our private detectives in Yunnan City. They will definitely inform Luo Bo.
If you have a chance, can you find someone from another place, such as a private detective in the provincial capital, to investigate?" Shen Huanxi said.
Jiang Xiaomei thought about it, sighed and shook her head.
"I have thought about this problem, but Luo Bo really doesn't want to share any of his property with me. Now he is very cautious. He already knows that I am investigating him. If I suddenly go to the provincial capital or go somewhere else at this time, he will definitely be suspicious and may send someone to follow me. In this situation, what chance do I have to go to the provincial capital by myself and find a private detective?"
"Don't you have me?" Shen Huanxi said with a smile.
"My sea buckthorn juice is not only sold in Yunnan City. I will definitely sell it to the provincial capital and even further afield. If things go as expected, I will go to the provincial capital to find sales channels in the near future. If you follow me now, you can follow me to the provincial capital naturally in the future.
Luo Bo is very cautious now. He may send someone to watch you once or twice, but if you follow me to the provincial capital more often, he will find that you are just following me to do business, and he will probably relax his vigilance. Then you can find an opportunity again, and you will definitely find it." Shen Huanxi said with confidence, because Xiao Shanhe was so reliable.
She was confident that she could do it even if she was alone, let alone with Xiao Shanhe's help.
"You're right, Huanxi, why didn't I think of that? Okay, then I'll follow you closely! I hope your sea buckthorn juice can be sold to the provincial capital as soon as possible!" Jiang Xiaomei suddenly became motivated after hearing what Shen Huanxi said.
Just at this time, the two arrived in front of a private hotel.
The name of the hotel is "Sister Li's Restaurant".
As soon as the two of them walked in, they saw a very fat woman in her early forties coming towards them.
"Are you two here for dinner? What would you like to eat? Here is the menu."
"Are you Sister-in-law Li?" Shen Huanxi asked.
It was no longer dinner time and there was no one else in the restaurant except the fat woman.
She saw a refrigerator in the hotel, right at the entrance of the restaurant.
Shen Huanxi had some knowledge of the refrigerators in private restaurants of that era. They were filled with cola and soy milk, which were sold to people who came to eat.
Of course, some people do not eat in the restaurant, but will come here specifically to buy drinks.
There weren't many varieties of drinks in that era, and the most popular ones were only cola and soy milk, so Shen Huanxi guessed that there should only be these two things in Mrs. Li's refrigerator.
It’s a pity that there were no glass-door refrigerators in that era. She couldn’t see what drinks were in the refrigerator and wasn’t sure.
"I'm Mrs. Li. I own this restaurant, otherwise it wouldn't be called this. Aren't you two here to eat?"
"We are not here to eat. We just want to ask Sister Li if you have ever thought about selling more kinds of drinks. Your refrigerator contains cola and soy milk, right? I see that other hotels' refrigerators are filled with these things." Shen Huanxi said straightforwardly.
Sister Li nodded.
"Yes. Are you here to do sales promotion? What drinks do you have?" asked Mrs. Li.
Shen Huanxi realized that this Mrs. Li must be a person with good business sense and able to accept new things.
Come to think of it, not long ago, if you wanted to drink Coke or soy milk, you could only buy them from merchants who rode bicycles and sold them in foam boxes on the streets.
Those businessmen made a lot of money by selling drinks with just a bicycle and a foam box. Mrs. Jiang was one of them.
Nowadays, the times are developing too fast and the ways of making money are constantly changing. The drinks that could be sold in this way in the past are no longer sold in this way.
Nowadays, if people want to buy Coke or soy milk, they go to stores, such as restaurants on the main streets. So the grandpas who sell Coke and soy milk in their own stores have become the second group of people who make money by selling beverages.
The fact that Sister Li was able to become one of the second group of people shows that her brain has kept up with the development of the times.
"Hello, Sister Li, please try this." Shen Huanxi said as he poured a cup of sea buckthorn juice and handed it to her.
"What is this?" Mrs. Li was a little confused.
"You'll know after you try it. Try it first. If you think the taste is suitable, you can decide whether to sell this drink in your store. If you're interested, you can come to me to purchase it anytime." Shen Huanxi said it clearly.
Sister Li was a little skeptical, but she also wanted to make money, so she took the bowl handed to her by Shen Huanxi and took a sip.
"It's sweet and sour, and it tastes good, but I've never had this taste before, and I don't know if others can accept it."
"Coke tastes sour and sweet. Many people didn't drink Coke in the past, but now many people like to drink Coke. Sister Li, please believe us this time. This sea buckthorn juice will definitely be very popular." Jiang Xiaomei was a little anxious.
"What is your purchase price for this product? How should I sell it?" asked Mrs. Li.
"This stuff costs 15 cents a bottle, and you can sell it for 20 cents."
"One dime and a half? Selling it for twenty cents?" After hearing Shen Huanxi's offer, Mrs. Li put down the bowl in her hand and returned it to Shen Huanxi.
"This is too expensive, more expensive than soy milk. Coke has even been reduced in price. How can it be sold at this price? The taste is really weird. Can't it be cheaper?"
"Sister Li, the cost of my sea buckthorn juice is very high, and this price is really not expensive. How about this, you think about it carefully, and if you have thought it through, come to Guixiang Village to find me, I live in..."
Shen Huanxi told Mrs. Li his address and then took Jiang Xiaomei out.
Jiang Xiaomei was still a little unwilling.
"Huanxi, we've come out like this, shouldn't we explain it to her? You only told her that the cost of sea buckthorn juice is high, but you didn't tell her how high the cost is. You should at least tell her the purchase price of sea buckthorn fruit, and the honey, rock sugar and spices you put in it. How can she know the cost is high if you don't tell her? If she doesn't know the cost is high, she won't buy from you."
"No need to tell her. Believe me, we have said enough." Shen Huanxi said confidently.
"How is that enough? Then tell me why, otherwise I won't be willing to give up." Jiang Xiaomei seemed to believe Shen Huanxi, but she turned around to look at the gradually receding Mrs. Li's restaurant, and then turned back to look at Shen Huanxi.
"Think about it, if she has no interest, why would she be willing to try it? Besides, the emergence of any new thing will make some people feel strange. If it is not strange, it is not a new thing. For example, cola and soy milk, those are things that have never existed before, but don’t so many people still like them now? These are..." Shen Huanxi wanted to say that this was written by Xiao Shanhe in the schedule, but she immediately remembered that Jiang Xiaomei did not see the schedule.
So she changed her approach.
"Mrs. Li is able to keep up with the times and buy a refrigerator to sell Coke and soy milk. This shows that she is a smart person. She will be willing to try. We just need to wait. If we act too anxious, she will think our products are not good."
Jiang Xiaomei understood what she said:
"I'm glad you're thoughtful. Let's go to the next one. We'll go to a few more and do as you say."
"OK."
After Shen Huanxi and Jiang Xiaomei left Li Saozi's restaurant, they went to look for the next restaurant together.
The second store is a department store that sells everything from food to drinks to daily necessities and toys. There is also a refrigerator at the entrance of the store.
"Boss, do you sell Coke and soy milk here? How are the sales?" Jiang Xiaomei asked as she entered the store.
Shen Huanxi couldn't help laughing beside her. It turned out that Jiang Xiaomei was a very smart person. Look, she figured out the way to communicate with others so quickly.
"Hey, why are you asking me this question? Are you also running a grocery store? We are in the same line of work, and you want to inquire about information. I can't tell you this." The owner of the department store frowned.
Judging from his tone and expression, he seemed defensive and unhappy.
Shen Huanxi understood that business people don't like their peers asking about their business situation. The boss's reaction was quite normal. She had already prepared herself mentally for the possibility that they would meet many bosses like this as they continued asking.
"We are not in the same business. We just make beverages. Our beverages are sold in glass bottles like cola and soy milk. They taste better if kept in the refrigerator. So I want to ask you if your cola and soy milk sales are good? Are you interested in selling our beverages?" Jiang Xiaomei added.
The owner of the department store still had a gloomy face and looked as if he didn't welcome them.
"You said you sell drinks, so you sell drinks. What evidence do you have to prove that you are not in the same business?"
"Boss, didn't we bring some drinks for you to try? Come on, try it first. Drink it and see if it's delicious before you make any conclusion." Jiang Xiaomei said as she raised the bottle of mineral water.
She held the mineral water bottle in her right hand and a bowl in her left hand. Just when she was about to pour the sea buckthorn juice from the mineral water bottle into the bowl, the boss stood up.
"What is this? Are your peers pretending to be so serious when they come to you to inquire about the news? Who knows what this drink you are talking about is? Don't ask me how my Coke and soy milk are selling? If you go and buy the goods and sell them yourself, you will know. Why do you have to ask about your peers?"
"Boss, you misunderstood. We are really not in the same industry. Just trust us and give it a try, okay?" Shen Huanxi said.
The boss looked at Shen Huanxi and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Shen Huanxi is so beautiful, just like a female star. In a small city like Yunnan, such a beautiful woman is rare.
The boss also felt that she was pretty and couldn't bear to speak to her loudly anymore.
"Alright, alright, look at you two ladies coming here to sell things in this cold weather, so I'll give it a try."
"Okay, please drink it." Jiang Xiaomei was happy now. She poured half a bowl of sea buckthorn juice and passed it to the boss.
I didn't have any expectations for this old version, I just thought of it as a way to give Shen Huanxi face, but after I took a sip of sea buckthorn juice, my eyes suddenly lit up.
"So you guys are not in the same business, you really make juice?"
"Yes." Jiang Xiaomei smiled, "So what do you think? Do you want to buy some from us and put them in your refrigerator to sell together with the cola and soy milk?"
"Boss, to be honest, there are already several bosses who buy and sell this juice from me. Some of them are in the catering business, and some run grocery stores.
Refrigerators are not cheap. If you are willing to spend money to buy a refrigerator to store cola and soy milk for sale, it means that you are a business-minded person who is willing to invest. You don't want such delicious juice to be sold elsewhere but not here, right?" Shen Huanxi continued.
Jiang Xiaomei was also very enthusiastic when she saw that there was a chance.
"Many people like to drink this sea buckthorn juice. If they can buy it in other stores but not in yours, they may not come to your store to buy anything in the future, not even to buy Coke and soy milk..."
"Xiaomei." Shen Huanxi felt that business people didn't like to hear what Jiang Xiaomei said, so he pulled her hand.
It’s a pity that Jiang Xiaomei had already finished speaking.
Fortunately, the boss was not angry, but looked at Shen Huanxi.
"Do you make this juice yourself? Do you have your own factory? What's the purchase price? How much do you want to sell it for?"
"This is sea buckthorn juice made by our family. The factory is under construction, and we are currently making it in a family workshop. But it is absolutely clean, hygienic and safe. You can place an order with me right now, otherwise it will be too late after my factory is built. Just like my friend said, many stores and many bosses are already selling my sea buckthorn juice. The purchase price is 15 cents a bottle, and you can sell it for 20 cents a bottle, which is a huge profit." Shen Huanxi said.
"It's so expensive, can't you make it cheaper?" The boss frowned.
Shen Huanxi shook his head.
"This is already very cheap. Our sea buckthorn juice is very expensive. The raw material of my sea buckthorn juice is sea buckthorn fruit. Judging from your accent, you should be a local from Yunnan City. Who in Yunnan City is not familiar with sea buckthorn fruit? That thing is sour and astringent, and has a strange taste.
I can make sea buckthorn juice taste so good by adding a lot of expensive spices. The cost is really high. How about this, I will give you my address. If you want to buy it, you can go to my address. My address is..."
After Shen Huanxi finished speaking, the boss nodded and without saying anything else, she brought Jiang Xiaomei out.
Jiang Xiaomei is quite happy.
"Huanxi, I saw that the boss was so fierce just now. When we went in, he was so unwelcoming to us. I didn't expect that he would be moved later. I think you will definitely make this deal."
"That should be it. Let's go to the next one."
…
Shen Huanxi and Jiang Xiaomei went from store to store looking for the store. When they saw a store with a refrigerator at the door, they would go in and ask the boss to give them a taste of sea buckthorn juice.
Unfortunately, there weren’t many things that could be carried on a bicycle, and they couldn’t take out much sea buckthorn juice. After visiting more than fifty stores, the sea buckthorn juice they had brought out was finished, so the two had to go back.
When we returned to Nanjing Road, we saw Dong Zhenxiong still busy at the tasting stall with other colleagues from Shen Huanxi's office.
Just then, a man in his early thirties took the bowl handed to him by Dong Zhenxiong, took a sip, and frowned.
"What is this? Why does it taste so weird, sour and sweet? I've never tasted it before."
Shen Huanxi's colleagues smiled at him.
"It's because you haven't tasted it before that it's called a new product, a fresh thing."
"Don't worry about whether it tastes strange or not. Anyway, if you have never tasted something before, you will find it strange the first time you drink it. Just tell me whether you think it tastes good or not." Wei Zhongcheng continued.
"This is delicious." replied the young man.
"That's it, when you drink a beverage, don't worry about whether it tastes strange or whether you have drunk it before. As long as it tastes good, it's fine. Just like things like Coke and soy milk, didn't they exist in the past? People who drank them for the first time would think the taste was strange, especially Coke. But now look how popular Coke is," Zhang Haifan continued.
There were so many people gathering around to try the drinks that Wu Guoxiang was directing everyone to line up to avoid a mess. People had to line up to try the drinks.
But there were many people who had already tried the drinks and gathered around the stall. Shen Huanxi and Jiang Xiaomei couldn't squeeze in, and they were pushing their bicycles. In the end, they simply didn't go in and just watched from outside.
"Huanxi, shall we just wait and see here? Or should we go home and bottle some sea buckthorn juice and continue to sell it in those stores?" Jiang Xiaomei asked.
Shen Huanxi shook his head.
"No, let's rest here for a while. You must be tired after following me to so many places today."
"I'm not tired, we can still do it..."
"I'm tired, I'm tired." Shen Huanxi smiled as he looked at Jiang Xiaomei's positive expression.
Jiang Xiaomei had no choice but to stand next to her.
“In fact, it is enough for us to promote our products in 50 stores. We don’t need to spend more time on this because I estimate that at least half of the owners of these 50 stores will come to purchase goods.
You see, the tasting is so popular now, there must be a lot of people who like to drink it and want to drink more, but where can they drink it? They can only buy it in the store.
Once the buyers have business, other buyers will follow suit, so there is no need for us to promote the product." Shen Huanxi was afraid that Jiang Xiaomei would promote the product alone, so he explained the real reason to her.
Jiang Xiaomei nodded when she heard him say that.
"You're right. Just like Coke and soy milk, in the past, only people rode bicycles and pushed foam boxes around the streets to sell them. Later, some restaurants started selling them inside their restaurants, and then many other hotels followed suit. It's the same principle with us selling sea buckthorn juice."
"That's the truth." Shen Huanxi.
Take Coke and soy milk as an example. This was an idea that Xiao Shanhe wrote on the schedule. Now, not only Shen Huanxi’s colleagues, but Jiang Xiaomei has also become very proficient in using them after listening to Shen Huanxi.
People kept coming to the tasting stand to try the drinks, and most people's reactions were the same as the young man Shen Huanxi and Jiang Xiaomei had just seen. They thought the taste was strange, but they also thought it was delicious.
Shen Huanxi is quite confident in her own formula. She knows that most people will like it. Even if a small number of people don't like it, it won't have any impact.
"This is delicious. Can you give me another bowl?" asked a tall and strong man in his early forties.
Dong Zhenxiong shook his head.
"Comrade, no, this is a tasting stall. Each person can only taste half a bowl. You have already drunk half a bowl. Please let the next person have the chance. We don't have a lot of sea buckthorn juice for tasting. Try to drink half a bowl. Otherwise, there will be fewer people who can taste it."
"Isn't it okay if I give you money? I'll give you money! I'll buy it with money! Is it okay if I buy it with money? You set up a stall here, don't you want to promote it and do business? Why are you pretending?" the man shouted, and it seemed that he really liked the sea buckthorn juice.
"I'm sorry, comrade. This is a tasting stall, not a sales stall. We don't sell money." Dong Zhenxiong said again.
