Yi Yami took time to train the workshop employees in batches.
Soon, because of the temptation of money, many people were able to get started quickly.
Those who can do it started to work, and those who can't still practiced at home, and then took the initiative to find Yiyami for testing.
Soon the workshop started to operate.
Gu Beijian's craftsmanship includes an additional step of carving, which is done by a carving master hired by Gu Beijian himself.
Soon, Yang Zeju and Gu Beijian both received the first batch of toothbrushes, tooth powder and bamboo tubes.
Yi Yami looked at the two confident people and said, "I can give you two suggestions. First, buy two boxes of tooth powder and get a bamboo tube for free. Buy three boxes of tooth powder and get a toothbrush for free. Second, sell the three separately. Both are possible."
Yang Zeju nodded after hearing this, but Gu Beijian had his own ideas.
"I wish you a successful opening!" Yiyami raised his glass and the three of them toasted together.
"A good start!" Yang Zeju and Gu Beijian said at the same time.
Yang Zeju contacted Yang Zifang, and gave some of the toothbrushes and tooth powder he had to Yang Zifang, and gave the rest to his brother's family, his wife's family, and a few good friends.
I’ll sell the rest in my own shop.
Yang Zeju was also very smart. During the promotion of Yiji, Yi Yami found a good idea to make a fortune. He put up a sign at the door and the highest bidder won. The person who offered the highest bid could post new products from other shops here.
In this way, when you come to Yiji for a meal, you can not only enjoy the delicious food, but also get information about the nearest shops. Many shop owners are willing to advertise in Yiji. For a while, Yiyami has an additional source of income.
Yang Zeju’s wife’s family was extremely happy when they got the tooth powder.
"Oh, let me tell you, your sister really married a good man. He always thinks of us for all the new gadgets, and we use them before other families in Haozhou! Let me tell you, your brother-in-law's business will definitely get bigger and bigger in the future. Moreover, when I went to have tea with several other wealthy wives, they all asked me what I used to brush my teeth. Their teeth looked white and shiny, and their breath was fresh. They wanted to buy some too!" Chen Qiaosi looked at her teeth in the mirror.
Chu Yundi couldn't help but laugh when he saw his wife like this. "You think it's good too, right? I've been out doing business these past few days, and quite a few businessmen have asked me what I use to rinse my mouth. They also said that my teeth don't look yellow at all. I thought of giving them a few boxes..."
"What's the point of giving us a gift? We only have a few boxes, which are not enough for our family..." Chen Qiaosi complained.
"Hey, look at my brain. I might as well tell my brother-in-law to buy some and then sell them!" Chu Yundi slapped his brain.
Chen Qiaosi nodded and said, "That's a good idea. We'll definitely make a lot of money. We're the first in Haozhou!"
Yang Zeju's brothers and friends also placed orders with Yang Zeju.
In a short period of time, Yang Zeju received tens of thousands of orders.
Yang Zeju was always smiling every day, and asked the workers to work overtime. He even thought the business was good, so he hired a few more people. He didn't bother Yi Yami with the extra people, but picked a few outstanding workers from his own group to teach them.
Gu Beijian didn't want to sell like Yang Zeju at all. Just like Yi Yami said, he was serving mid- to high-end customers and he wanted to sell to those rich people.
The thing rich people have the most is money, so as long as something is scarce, good-looking, and interesting, there will be a large number of people chasing after it, and the price will go up accordingly.
Gu Beijian first sent some tooth powder and toothbrush bamboo tubes to his mother Qin Chaochao, as well as to his grandmother, his aunt, and other female elders of his male friends who he was close to, such as Concubine Yun, the mother of the fifth prince.
Seeing the Fifth Prince presenting her with something like a treasure, Concubine Yun asked curiously, "What is this?"
"Mother, this was sent by that brat Gu Beijian. He said it's a new and rare thing made in his workshop and asked you to try it." The fifth prince Qi Beiting handed it over like he was presenting a treasure.
Concubine Yun opened the wooden box and found a furry object with exquisite flowers and plants carved on it, as well as several exquisite pottery jars. She opened them and found green powder, pink powder, red powder, blue powder, black powder, and white powder. There was also a bamboo tube carved with mandarin duck patterns.
"What's the use of these?" asked Empress Yun.
"Oh, son, you've tried it. These are used to clean teeth. When you rinse your mouth in the morning, you can use this toothbrush, dip the tooth powder in it, and then you can use this bamboo tube to hold water, brush your teeth, and rinse your mouth." Qi Beiting introduced how to use it.
"That's novel. My son has tried it. How's the effect?" Concubine Yun asked someone to put it away.
"Mother, let me tell you, every tooth powder tastes different. Some taste like mint, some taste like flowers, and some taste like a kind of fruit that I can't describe. The bluish-black one tastes like Chinese medicine. Mother, you can try them all. I heard from Gu Beijian that you are the first one in the palace to have one! Oh, even the Queen doesn't have one..." Qi Beiting said quietly.
When Concubine Yun heard this, she looked at the box for a second longer, "He's thoughtful."
"Mother, please try it. Look, my teeth are white and my breath doesn't stink anymore~" Qi Beiting breathed at Concubine Yun.
Concubine Yun couldn't stand it any longer. She picked up the feather duster held by the palace maid next to her and threw it at him, "Qi Beiting, try to breathe on me again."
Qi Beiting dodged, "Mother, please don't get angry. If you get angry, your gentle and lovely image will be ruined..."
