"I don't have any in my store yet..." Mrs. Li then realized that she was a little anxious just now. Her store hasn't received any goods yet.
"It will be available in her store tonight, at the latest tomorrow." Shen Huanxi walked up to Sister-in-law Li and helped Sister-in-law Li talk to the man.
"Who are you and how do you know she has it in her store?" the man asked.
"Because I am the manufacturer of this sea buckthorn juice, Sister Li buys it from me." Shen Huanxi explained.
"You mean you're a wholesaler? Then can I buy directly from you?" The man's eyes lit up.
"Of course, but I don't do retail here, I only do wholesale. If you can buy in boxes, I can sell it to you. A box contains 36 bottles, and the minimum order is one box."
After Shen Huanxi finished speaking, the man fell silent and stopped talking.
When some people heard him ask that question just now, they were a little tempted and wanted to buy it directly from Shen Huanxi. But now that they heard that the minimum purchase is one box, with 36 bottles in a box, they gave up the idea.
Shen Huanxi said this on purpose. The profit per bottle from retail is definitely higher than from wholesale, and the labor required is also less, but what she needs to do is quantity. Generally speaking, wholesale is better because the wholesale volume is large, and the money earned from one order is much more than that from many retail orders.
"If you want to buy it from me, just come to me. I'm going to her place to wholesale it now. You can't finish a box of 36 bottles at once. It's a waste of money if you keep too much and it goes bad, right? I'm going to wholesale it now, and you can just come to my store to buy it later." When Sister Li heard that Shen Huanxi could do wholesale directly here, she couldn't wait to say it.
Shen Huanxi's first wholesale business was done with Li Saozi. Li Saozi asked her for two boxes, a total of 72 bottles. Just after she left, another catering business also came to Shen Huanxi for wholesale, and more and more people came.
At first, only the bosses that Shen Huanxi and Jiang Xiaomei had approached came to place wholesale orders. Gradually, some unfamiliar faces also came to place wholesale orders.
Shen Huanxi's factory has not been built yet, and making sea buckthorn juice does not require very high technical content. She was afraid that she would have too much stock here and would not be able to sell it, and that she would not have enough space at home without a warehouse to store it.
I just realized that even with three juicers and so many colleagues helping me, the production speed still can't keep up with the wholesale speed of the bosses, not to mention the fact that there is no room for them at home and it is difficult to keep stock.
This is a good thing. This way she will have more time to build the warehouse without being so anxious. She will also have time to make better plans for the factory.
The pressure in the warehouse was gone, but there were other problems. She had just started to make bottled sea buckthorn juice, and the goods were all sold out very quickly, so people who came to her later could only make a reservation and wait before they could pick up the goods.
Fortunately, people from Shen Huanxi's unit came to help, and there were three juicers at home. Bottles and bottle caps could be purchased quickly from the glass bottle factory, so the work was done very quickly, even with a reservation.
The outskirts of Yunnan City are full of sea buckthorn berries, and Shen Huanxi continues to purchase them. Some people come here to wholesale, while others come here to sell the berries.
Generally speaking, Shen Huanxi's business is going very smoothly.
Shen Huanxi basically goes to the bank to deposit money every day.
The four children in the family also knew that she had made a lot of money and were happy for her.
Shen Huanxi has to go to the pharmacy and spice store every three days to buy spices for flavoring sea buckthorn juice.
She specially picked a Saturday to give each of her four children 50 yuan pocket money, and took them to the street. She went to buy spices and let the children buy things by themselves.
As the children grow older, Shen Huanxi also wants to cultivate their financial awareness as early as possible so that they know how to allocate money. Now the family has the conditions for this.
"You should spend money frugally, know how to bargain, and know how to compare prices. Okay, Tangtang, you bring your brothers and sisters to shop here. The weather is getting colder, you can pick out some winter clothes for yourselves, and mom will go inside to buy some spices." After Shen Huanxi took the children to the most prosperous section of Nanjing Road, she pointed to the drugstore in front of her and said.
"Okay!" Several children nodded heavily. Xiao Yutang also looked very responsible. He held Changning and Zhengzheng's hands tightly. These two children were the youngest and needed to be looked after more. Changan would follow him by himself.
Shen Huanxi went to the drugstore to buy spices, and a few children were strolling around Nanjing Road.
"Chang'an Changning, long time no see!" Xiaohua suddenly ran over, followed by Xiaohua's mother.
"Chang'an Changning, you are here, what a coincidence, it's been a long time since we last met." Xiaohua's mother also greeted them.
Changan is very happy.
"Hello, Auntie! It's been a long time since we last met. Sister Xiaohua, it's been a long time since we last met. Changning and I said we would come back to the village to visit you when we are free."
"Okay, when you are free, come back often to play with your sister Xiaohua. By the way, Changan, I heard that your mother made a lot of money and is now making sea buckthorn juice, right? I saw many children drinking it on the streets."
"Well, that was made by our mother!" Changan was extremely proud when he talked about this.
"Then you two can really relax. Your mother has earned so much money, and it is for you. You two sisters will live a good life in the future, unlike our Xiaohua.
Our family conditions are not as good as yours, so we still have to work hard. We also hope that when you have a good life in the future, you will not forget your sister Xiaohua and help her more. "Xiaohua's mother said with a smile.
Xiao Yutang and Xiao Yu were looking at sweaters at a sweater stall nearby, and they heard the conversation between Chang'an Changning and Xiaohua, mother and daughter, who were looking at cotton shoes.
Xiao Yuzheng looked at Xiao Yutang with some doubt.
"Brother, that auntie seemed to be talking about our mother. Why did she only say that our mother was the mother of Changan and Changning sisters, but not our mother? Wouldn't our mother spend the money she earned?"
When Xiao Yutang heard Xiao Yuzheng ask this, his face darkened.
He likes Shen Huanxi very much, and he also likes being Shen Huanxi's stepson.
At the same time, he was also very clear that he was not Shen Huanxi's biological son, but Zheng Zheng was too young. When Shen Huanxi first got married, Zheng Zheng was only three years old. How could such a young child know who was his biological child and who was not? Anyway, he called Shen Huanxi "Mom" and thought that Shen Huanxi was his biological mother.
"Zhengzheng, we are real men. We have to rely on ourselves to make money, not inherit the family business. Chang'an and Changning are all girls. As men, we have to give in to girls. It is much more difficult for girls to make money than for us men. We should not compete with them. Do you understand?" Xiao Yutang said to Xiao Yuzheng with the look of a little adult.
Xiao Yuzheng seemed to understand what was said, but seeing Xiao Yutang's serious look, he nodded.
"Okay, let's go over there and take a look." Seeing that Xiao Hua's mother and daughter were still chatting with Chang'an Changning, Xiao Yutang took Xiao Yuzheng's hand and pulled him aside.
Over there is an aromatherapy stall.
The owner of the aromatherapy stall recognized Xiao Yutang at first sight.
"It's you. I think I saw you last year and I had a deep impression of you. Your mother liked to buy aromatherapy from me. Why didn't I see her come here later?" asked the proprietress.
When Xiao Yutang heard her say this, he frowned.
The person who brought him to this aromatherapy stall last year was Lan Linxiang, but now his mother has become Shen Huanxi. How should he explain this to the proprietress?
After being brought here once by Lan Linxiang, Xiao Yutang remembered the proprietress. He saw her here often last year. Later, he heard that the stall owner went back to her hometown to get married. Anyway, he had not seen her again.
Now that he suddenly saw her again, he guessed that she must have come back after her wedding to set up her stall again, and she didn't know that Lan Linxiang was no longer his mother.
Lan Linxiang used to be a big customer of this stall owner. She bought all kinds of aromatherapy. The proprietress liked her very much and it seemed that she was still waiting for Lan Linxiang to take care of her business.
She was afraid that she would not be able to wait that long, because Lan Linxiang had become a wealthy person and could now afford imported aromatherapy. She would no longer look down on those handmade aromatherapy products sold at roadside stalls.
Xiao Yutang looked at the expectant eyes of the proprietress and didn't want to explain anything to her. He wanted to pull Xiao Yuzheng's hand and leave, but he suddenly thought of something and stayed.
