Who knew that so many would be sold in just one morning? The current situation has completely exceeded her expectations.
Li Wen, standing to the side, also frowned and said, "Yes, before we opened, we were worried about not having enough customers, and now that we have more customers, we're worried about that too. What if we run out of stock after a few days of opening?"
Xu Han smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. I can't guarantee anything else, but there are plenty of eggs!"
As for other things, if we really don't have enough, we'll go to the farmers' homes to collect them.
However, I predict that after these three days, the number of visitors will definitely drop precipitously.
"We still have a lot of things at home that haven't been brought over to sell yet, so our shop will definitely stay open until the end of the year."
After saying that, she turned and walked out, not forgetting to tell Li Wen before leaving, "Go to the nearby farmers' houses and get some more vegetables later. I see there aren't many left, and I estimate they won't last until noon."
"Yes, madam. I'll go right away."
Xu Han didn't forget to remind them, "Take the carriage, it'll be faster."
"Okay, I got it."
After Li Wen left, Xu Han and the others helped put the goods on the shelves.
The shop staff worked together and quickly replenished all the goods in just over ten minutes.
The shop assistant was in charge of cleaning the shop, while Xu Han pulled Lu Chuan aside to check the morning's accounts.
Although the items sold in the shop are relatively cheap and there isn't much income, the large number of people today means more items are sold.
Xu Han looked at the drawer full of copper coins and fell into deep thought. "So many copper coins, how long will it take to count them? You should quickly call the Taoist priest and the others over so we can count them together."
After Xu Han finished speaking, she went to get the rope on her own, while Lu Chuan simply removed the drawer, and the group moved to the backyard.
The Taoist priest and his companions also came over, and exclaimed in surprise at the drawer full of copper coins, "Wow, so many?"
Grandpa Zhao was also surprised. He knew business would be good this morning, but he didn't expect it to be this good. He sold a whole drawer full of copper coins in just one morning. Isn't that surprising?
"With so many copper coins, it must be worth about twenty or thirty taels."
Xu Han handed them the rope. "Who knows? Hurry up and count it. So much money is giving me a headache."
The Taoist priest tapped Xu Han's head and said, "You silly girl, you're starting to worry even though you have a lot of money."
"No way, these are all copper coins. If they were silver, I would be rich."
"Dream on, hurry up and start counting!"
About 10 minutes later, the four adults and two children finally counted out their morning earnings.
Xu Han looked at the strings of copper coins in front of her and counted them one by one, "One, two, three, sixteen, seventeen. These total 17 taels. Adding the two taels and 360 coins that weren't strung together, we made a net profit of 19 taels of silver this morning."
Lu Chuan laughed and teased her, "Hahaha, isn't it pure profit? The shop and the people are all yours, and even the goods sold in the shop, except for radishes and cabbages, are all from your own family."
Xu Han nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, the shop and the people are all our own, so we'll make money no matter how we do this business."
Grandpa Zhao smiled and shook his head. "Little money-grubber."
As they were talking, Juxiang called out from the front, "Madam, there are too many people. Would you mind coming over to help?"
"Hey, I'm here." Xu Han responded and quickly urged everyone to get up and get to work.
After another busy period, I can finally rest for a while.
Xu Han rubbed her aching back from standing and took a quick look at the sales situation this morning.
Surprisingly, the pickled vegetables sold very well. Because some sample plates and bamboo skewers were placed in advance, quite a few people tried them and then bought some to take home.
Besides these, dried goods and similar items sold quite well, and of course, vegetables also sold well.
Overall, it's clear that there are significantly more varieties.
There were so many people in the store today, and most of them were ordinary people buying things.
In addition, the Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and the dried vegetables and dried goods sold in the shop are of very good quality. With the current discounts, many families will choose to buy some, more or less.
Of course, not all of these dried goods are of good quality; there are also some defective products, which Xu Han also picked out and sold separately at a much lower price than many others.
Some people who are struggling financially will buy some less attractive but still edible products.
After making her rounds, she had a general idea of what was going on. She turned to Lu Chuan beside her and said, "It seems we'll have to make more pickled vegetables next year. Pickled vegetables are the best-selling item today."
Lu Chuan was also a little incredulous upon hearing this. He turned around and looked at the place where pickled vegetables were kept, only to find that it was mostly empty.
"Could it be that they haven't had time to restock the pickled vegetables yet?"
"No, I just checked. The ones that were placed under the cabinet this morning have already sold out, and there aren't many left in the warehouse either."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan frowned. "We didn't plan to make any this year. We didn't make many pickled vegetables, and now we can't make any more without vegetables!"
Although I made a lot more pickled vegetables this year than in previous years, they didn't really stand out when I put them out to sell.
Xu Han glanced at Lu Chuan and gave him a meaningful look, which Lu Chuan immediately understood.
Many of the vegetables stored in the storage space this year have not yet been eaten. Some of them can be made into pickles, but this can only be done by family members.
"I'll help you make it when we get back."
Xu Han nodded and changed the subject, "Yes, let's have some more supplies sent down from the mountains tomorrow. We need to restock everything that needs to be restocked. We can't afford to run out of stock after only a few days of opening."
"Okay, have Li Wen compile the statistics after lunch, and have Han Qi make a trip there this afternoon and let them know when you get back."
Upon hearing that Han Qi was going back, Xu Han immediately added, "See if Qi Yu and the others are free now. If they're done with their work, let them come over! We'll be starting to set up the fruit wine shop soon, so it'll be good for them to get familiar with things sooner."
"Okay, I understand. I'll tell him in a bit."
Four people have come to work as assistants in the local produce shop. We've been quite busy these past few days since the opening and need a lot of manpower. Once things are running smoothly here, we won't need so many people anymore.
Four shops can be managed by three or four people. We can transfer two people to the other shop and have Chunmei come here to help.
There's also Zhu Chunsheng and Zhang Shi, as well as the family of nine from the last purchase, and several young people in the family.
After this period of learning, they have no problem with the most basic accounting. Even if they can't do accounting, they can help with logistics. In any case, there is no shortage of people.
