"You are too kind, Marquis Pingnan." Lin Jinghan felt a little embarrassed by the compliment: In fact, this was her first time starting a business, and she was not very clear about the specific procedures required to open a store, so she had to ask others.
Sikong Zhan stared at Lin Jinghan. "The other woman's wife showed the agreement to her husband. What does his little princess mean by this? She didn't even want to show it to him?"
Lin Jinghan of course understood what Sikong Zhan meant by that look. She rolled her eyes at him proudly and whispered in his ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely give you the 10% of the profits I promised you." I won't show it to you! Humph!
After lunch, they went to the courtyard belonging to the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, which was located near the ten thousand mu lotus pond. Lin Jinghan roughly planned each area and had a rough estimate of how many people would be needed.
After leaving the Ten Thousand Mu Lotus Pond, Lin Jinghan ignored Sikong Zhan, who had been looking gloomy, and went straight to find Lin Lixuan. In a place where no one was around, she threw the agreement to him and told him to study it carefully in the next few days. She also told him her plan again.
"This time selling this lotus perfume, from making materials to making it, opening a shop, and finally selling it, this is a complete process. You must participate in the whole process, learn well, think carefully and summarize. In the future, I will gradually hand over all these things to you."
"But, sister, this sounds so complicated. Can I really do it?" Lin Lixuan was listening to Lin Jinghan's explanation very carefully, but he felt it was very strenuous. He didn't quite understand and had no confidence in himself.
Lin Jinghan knew so much information, it was normal for him to be unable to accept it all at once, so she comforted him:
"No one is born omnipotent. We all need to learn any skill. Do you want to be a business genius and build our own power with me in the future, or do you want to live a dull life?"
Lin Jinghan has always been aware that time is of the essence, so she must seize every moment to accomplish what she wants. No matter what the outcome of her and Sikong Zhan's relationship, she will never be dependent on him. She wants to create her own power, starting with this perfume shop and the reform of Huichuntang.
Lin Lixuan said without thinking: "I want to work hard with my sister!"
After all, he was a young man, so he naturally wouldn't settle for mediocrity. Lin Jinghan didn't know if he knew what his decision meant, so she just solemnly warned him:
"Then you have to be mentally prepared. No success can be achieved overnight. The pain you go through is something only those who have experienced it can understand. Outsiders simply cannot comprehend it."
Lin Lixuan grabbed Lin Jinghan's sleeve and said, "As long as I'm here, I'm not afraid of anything."
Lin Jinghan handed the mask to Lin Lixuan, "But I hope you can grow up to be a man who can stand tall and proud. Even if your sister is no longer by your side one day, you can still hold up the world on your own."
Lin Lixuan put on the mask and nodded firmly, "I will!"
The next day, before dawn, Lin Jinghan took Lin Lixuan to Huichun Hall.
The news that Huichuntang will start selling beauty cream from today has spread like wildfire in the capital. Because the beauty cream is sold in limited quantities, people have been queuing outside Huichuntang since last night. Now there are several long queues outside the door, and the scene is quite spectacular.
Lin Jinghan didn't expect the publicity to be so effective. He now only has three people making the beauty cream. If this continues, those who are queuing today can make reservations until the end of the year.
"Xuan'er thinks that in a situation like this, the amount of beauty cream we produce is far from enough for these people to buy. What should we do?"
"How about - producing more?" Lin Lixuan asked tentatively.
With so many people, she only selected three people to make medicine. How could it be so easy to increase manpower to expand production? Lin Jinghan did not want to undermine Lin Lixuan's confidence.
"This is a later solution. As for today's situation, what should we do?"
Lin Lixuan scratched his head, unable to think of a solution, so he shook his head.
"Sister Xia, what do you think we should do?" Lin Jinghan turned to ask Xia Yiran.
Xia Yin was confident. "We'll sell according to the original plan, on a first-come, first-served basis. As for reservations, we can't sell out too many days' reservations at once, to prevent changes later that might affect our reputation."
The boss lady is indeed the boss lady. Lin Jinghan nodded and looked at Lin Lixuan again, "Did Xuan'er learn it?"
"It turns out there are so many things to consider when selling things." Lin Lixuan suddenly realized.
"If you don't think about this a little more, how can you stay at the forefront of the industry? Furthermore, if these customers wait in line every time and can't buy our products, they'll get disappointed over time. So, from now on, we'll have to sell a fixed number of reservations at fixed times, on a first-come, first-served basis, or to the highest bidder.
At the same time, for the long term, when the time is right, we can slowly increase the amount of beauty cream we sell daily."
"The princess is really thoughtful!" Xia Yin was full of admiration.
"So, Xuan'er, what do you think we should do next after today?"
"Should we continue to recruit pharmacists?" Lin Lixuan was not sure.
Lin Jinghan patted his shoulder with satisfaction, "Not bad, you really know how to grasp the key points!"
Thanks to sufficient preparation, Huichuntang's first sale of the beauty cream went very smoothly, and they even sold out ten days' worth of reservations. Even the price of one or two gold coins per bottle did not stop them from buying it.
Those who lined up at the back and didn't get to buy anything were all very upset.
Lin Jinghan stood in front of those who didn't buy a mask, with Lin Lixuan beside her. She raised her head, her aura was fully open,
"Everyone, please be quiet! I'm the owner of Huichuntang. I know you all came here for the beauty cream. The queue must have been tough, and I'm sorry I couldn't get you what you wanted. On behalf of Huichuntang, I apologize to everyone. Anyone who comes to Huichuntang for medical treatment today can enjoy a 10% discount!"
Ten days later at the hour of Si, Huichuntang will sell another thirty bottles of beauty cream, as well as the quota for the next ten days, for a total of three hundred and thirty bottles. Huichuntang will start issuing numbers to the people in line from the hour of Chen, and the number will be issued once the three hundred and thirty numbers are all gone. Those who have not received a number do not need to queue again.
At the same time, I, Huichuntang, hereby promise that we will do our best to produce as much beauty cream as possible in the future, so that no one present here will leave empty-handed."
As soon as Lin Jinghan finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the audience. Those who had been disgruntled because they hadn't been able to buy the beauty cream were completely convinced by Lin Jinghan's words. Some left on their own, intending to return ten days later, while others went into Huichuntang, hoping to take advantage of the discount to buy some medicine or see a doctor.
