"As long as we can get it, it doesn't matter if it's a few days late!"
Seeing that she agreed, Mr. Wu stood up with a smile, as if he had accomplished some important task!
"By the way, the batch of sanitary napkins you arranged last time has all been shipped to Heilongjiang Province.
This morning, Zhang Hui called and said that sales are booming over there, and they're worried they might not have enough stock, so she urged us to increase the supply!
Thinking of this, Mr. Wu sat down again and glanced at her solemnly.
Although Xiao Guoer always told him that the goods she had were also obtained from other people, and asked him not to ask too many questions!
But he has been in the black market for so many years and works for the higher-ups. How many people in the country who can get supplies can escape his eyes?
What’s more, every time we sell something, it’s in such large quantities and of such high-quality and scarce goods!
So, it is impossible for him not to have doubts!
But on the other hand, since he couldn't find any clues, Xiaoguoer's route should be safe, so he didn't ask again.
But every time he asked Xiaoguoer to ship the goods, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
There is always a chance of something going wrong!
He just doesn't want to do these businesses, and he doesn't want to put the young master of the Lan family, Xingxing's daughter, in any danger!
Lan Guoer didn't know what Mr. Wu was thinking, and she almost forgot about it!
Since returning from Heilongjiang Province, she has prepared a large number of sanitary napkins from the space and handed them over to Master Wu for operation.
She also gave him the responsibility to coordinate her cooperation with Lu Jun's cousin, Zhang Hui.
Based on the cost of raw materials at that time and its unique craftsmanship, she set the factory cost of sanitary napkins at 7 cents per piece, and a box of ten pieces, which is 70 cents.
She cooperated with Wu Ye. In the early stage, she was responsible for supplying goods, while Wu Ye was in charge of the business and she held a 50% stake.
When the factory is opened later, Mr. Wu will be in charge of it and she will hold 30% of the technical shares.
At present, cotton and other raw materials are scarce in China and are not even enough for keeping warm. It is obviously unlikely that they can be used to produce such disposable sanitary products.
Furthermore, domestic mechanical equipment is not mature enough, and if she wants to produce in large quantities, it is obviously not able to achieve the level of fully automatic assembly line operation she wants.
Sanitary napkins are personal items for women during their special periods and are closely related to women’s physical health and even their happiness index. Therefore, the requirements for hygiene and quality standards during production are also very strict!
Based on the principle of "better to have nothing than to have something that is not right", she would rather not give birth than allow any mistake to happen!
Therefore, it is not surprising that Mr. Wu asked her for goods.
"Our supply price is nine cents a piece, right?"
Lan Guoer couldn't help but doubt their pricing!
She originally thought that based on the current supply price, the selling price would be at least 12 cents!
By this calculation, one box costs one dollar and two cents!
You have to know that one yuan and twenty cents in this era when pork costs 76 cents and rice costs 13 cents per pound is enough to buy one and a half pounds of pork and ten pounds of rice!
And now it is still a distribution system!
The policy of allowing some people to get rich first has not been implemented yet. You can imagine how extravagant it would be to be willing to use this thing?
After all, this is different from skin care products!
Although her skin care products are not cheap, the effects they bring are long-lasting.
But this sanitary napkin is a real consumable item! It is disposable!
Thinking that this was a new thing, and in this era when people generally used menstrual belts, it would take a long time to promote it in the market, so when preparing the goods, she prepared 20,000 packs in the first batch, thinking that it would sell for a while.
Who would have thought that it would be sold out in just one month?!
The level of shipment really surprised her!
At the same time, she also affirmed her own vision! It seemed that she had chosen the right people to do this, the Zhang sisters!
"Don't worry about the goods. The next batch should be delivered to the warehouse in the next two days. Uncle Wu will take care of the arrangements then." Lan Guoer replied.
In order to facilitate her operations, Hao had already asked Mr. Wu to prepare a warehouse specifically for her in Kyoto. She could just take the time to put another batch of goods in it.
At the same time, the girls on the Tsinghua University campus were also quietly discussing the newly emerging "menstrual belt"!
"Hey, did you buy those disposable menstrual pads? I heard they're really useful!
My "that" is coming in the next two days, and I was just about to try it, but it's out of stock recently! Isn't that infuriating?
Two girls were walking on the campus. One of them with long hair whispered to the girl with short hair next to her.
The short-haired girl shook her head.
"A pack costs 1.2 yuan! How can I afford it?
But there are two people in our dormitory who bought them. They look pretty good, white and soft. It is said that we don’t have to worry about them falling off during physical education class, and they won’t stain our pants!
I'm a little tempted by what I heard! How about we buy a pack and try it next time when it's available?"
"We don't know when it'll be available. I heard it's filled with cotton! Cotton is in such short supply right now, I'm afraid we'll be out of material!"
The long-haired girl looked regretful.
The short-haired girl looked around and saw that there was no one around. She waved to the long-haired girl and whispered in her ear,
"I have a fellow villager who is in the Department of Economics and Management! These sanitary napkins are secretly sold by the girls in her class! It is said that two male classmates from our school supply them with the goods!
According to my fellow villager, they are already urging the two male classmates to restock the goods, so just wait patiently!"
The short-haired girl raised her eyebrows at the long-haired girl, then added,
"Let's just talk about this between the two of us. Don't tell anyone else! If the school finds out, we'll have nowhere to buy anything!"
I heard that our school is the only one in Kyoto that sells it!"
"Why should I mention this to others? It's so embarrassing!" replied the girl with long hair.
"But this boy selling this kind of stuff is a little... too bold, isn't it?"
The long-haired girl had an expression of disbelief, and for a moment she didn't know what words to use to describe it.
"Hey! Who knows what they're thinking? As long as the stuff is good, that's all!"
......
Department of Economics and Management.
Su Xing and Lu Jun were also discussing this issue during the break!
"We've been in the black market for so long. If we had known that sanitary napkins could make more money than food, why would we still be dealing in food? If we had dealt with this earlier, wouldn't we have become rich sooner?"
Lu Jun said with a look of regret.
"Who was the one who was embarrassed in the first place? Who said this thing was unlucky?"
Su Xing rolled his eyes at him, his eyes full of disgust!
"If you had told me this earlier, would we have waited until the stock was almost gone before starting?
Just count on your fingers, how much money will we lose if we stop production for one day?"
