Before long, Zhang Qinghua followed Cuiguo to a private room in the teahouse.
"Miss, Manager Zhang has arrived."
"Manager Zhang, this is our young lady."
Shopkeeper Zhang smiled obsequiously, "Greetings, young master."
Su Wan'er nodded proudly, which was her response. "Manager Zhang, the reason I called you here is to ask you why Baibaoxuan's business is not as good as Wanhuofang's. I remember that Baibaoxuan's business has always been far ahead, and it is the number one general store in Anyang County."
How did things come to this? Isn't it because you, as the manager, haven't fulfilled your duties properly?
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Zhang Qinghua's forehead, and he bent over even lower. "Young Master, there's nothing I can do about this. Jiang Wanwan from Dashui Village has made a mosquito repellent incense that customers love. However, the incense is only sold at Wanhuofang and Ruixiangju. Over time, customers have stopped patronizing our Baibaoxuan."
I also offered a high price to order mosquito coils from Jiang Wanwan, but unexpectedly, she made all sorts of excuses and refused to sell them to us.
"Useless trash! You actually still want to cooperate with that little bitch Jiang Wanwan! I think you don't want to be the manager of Baibaoxuan anymore." Su Wan'er was furious and grabbed the teapot on the table, smashing it hard in front of Zhang Qinghua.
The thought of Jiang Wanwan making so much money made her heart ache with anger.
Zhang Qinghua didn't know what he had said that offended him, but he lifted his robe and knelt down on the ground. "Young master, please calm down and listen to me."
I recently found a place that also makes mosquito coils; they're even Jiang Wanwan's uncles! They'll be delivering the coils today. I'm confident that if we sell mosquito coils in our shop, we'll definitely be able to win back some business.”
Hearing this, Su Wan'er's anger dissipated considerably. "Finally, some good news! Tell me, what's the name of the company that sold us the mosquito coils?"
"Jiang Dali, Jiang Tietou, and Jiang Dayong."
Hearing the three names made Su Wan'er feel a little better.
These three must have stolen Jiang Wanwan's mosquito coil recipe.
"Go, reduce the price of all goods at Baibaoxuan to 50%, we must steal all the business from Wanhuofang. And those damn mosquito coils, sell them at a low price too."
I heard that a roll sells for eight copper coins at the general store, but we'll sell it for four copper coins, no, two copper coins a roll.
"Young master, isn't it inappropriate to sell the goods so cheaply? If Madam investigates later, I won't be able to bear the responsibility," Zhang Qinghua stammered.
One wrong move and the shop could go bankrupt.
Zhang Qinghua ultimately held back and didn't say the last sentence.
To his surprise, Su Wan'er stared at him coldly and said fiercely, "Hmph, with me here to protect you, what are you afraid of? Zhang Qinghua, listen to me. Our Baibaoxuan not only wants to have good business, but we also want to ruin Ruixiangju and Wanhuofang."
Otherwise, you might as well go home and stay there!
"Yes, young master!" Zhang Qinghua said, sweating profusely.
Su Wan'er waved her hand, dismissing him, "Now that you understand, go and do your work."
"Yes, young master." Zhang Qinghua bowed and left the private room.
"Cuiguo, do something for me."
......
"Knock knock knock!"
"Don't miss out! Baibaoxuan is having a special offer today. All goods are 30% off the usual price."
"A roll of mosquito coils only costs two coins."
