"Okay, sister Ran Ran, do it!" Xia Qiyue stretched out her hand to invite Li Qingran to sit down, while An Youde and An Youde immediately stood up and walked behind Xia Qiyue.
Shopkeeper Fei took the lead and sat opposite Xia Qiyue, while Li Qingran sat next to her father.
She sat down and hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Sister Xia, this candy is indeed good, but the price...can you give me some more profit? Look, our store is so big, we must need a lot of goods, so you can treat it as a small profit but quick turnover."
, it also gives us some profit, okay?”
Li Qingran had to speak like this because her father kept winking at her, fearing that she would mess it up.
Xia Qiyue slowly put down the tea cup, pretended to think deeply for a moment, then took out a bottle of packaged halva from the basket carried by An Youde, and then spoke.
"Not only are my candies precious, but the bottles they are filled with are also made of colored glass. They come from overseas and are very rare. We don't have a colored glaze kiln in Dongchu, right?"
Li Qingran's eyes widened when she saw the milk bottle that Xia Qiyue took out, because she happened to have a glass cup, which was usually a precious thing. Not to mention used to hold things, it was stored in a sandalwood box.
Also lock it up carefully.
But in front of her, the halva was packed in a glass bottle, and just looking at it, this glass bottle was more transparent and beautiful than the one in her hand. She fell in love with the shape at first sight.
"Sister Xia...can you show me?" Li Qingran was more excited than her father this time and almost stuttered when speaking.
Xia Qiyue generously handed it to Li Qingran, "Look! But be careful, these are glass bottles, they are very expensive! I also thought that good things should go with good things, so I spent a huge amount of money to buy these glass bottles.
Come and put the halva!”
Li Qingran nodded vigorously, "Yes, the glass is very precious and beautiful." She was thinking, this bottle alone is more expensive than crispy candy, right?
"Not only is the bottle precious, but making this halva is also very troublesome. The ingredients must be precise and there can be no deviation, otherwise it will fail. My sucrose is carefully brewed, unlike those sold in the world, so the sweetness is
It has been greatly improved, and the manpower and material resources have also been increased, and more thoughts have been put into it. In fact, I can't make much at this price!"
Li Qingran listened and looked at the glass bottle. She couldn't put it down. What would she think if she knew that this expensive glass bottle was just a milk bottle?
After watching for a while, the fat shopkeeper couldn't stand it anymore and pushed her daughter's arm. Li Qingran came back to her senses and reluctantly returned the bottle with some embarrassment.
An Zihao couldn't believe his eyes. He turned to look at the crispy candy in An Youde's hand who was standing next to him. This... no wonder the fourth sister-in-law sells it so expensive. It turns out that the candy is so troublesome to boil.
No wonder the candy bottles are so expensive.
Just now, he thought that selling this candy for a hundred copper coins at most would be enough, because it was really delicious and the packaging was novel. He didn't know how precious colored glaze was in Dongchu, so he didn't know the exact price?
"Sister Xia, is there no other packaging for the halva? For example, can it be put in a container such as a clay pot? In this case, the price can be reduced a lot, right?"
Not to mention, this daughter has more business acumen than me and can think of this level.
Xia Qiyue actually didn't want to do this. A milk bottle could earn a lot more money. She didn't want to lose such an opportunity, so she shook her head.
"Sister Ran Ran, my crispy candy is packed in a glass bottle, and it's not easy to make. You can't get as much crispy candy as you want. The process is complicated and the quantity will be small. Therefore, there is no other wholesale channel!"
Xia Qiyue originally approached them to cooperate with them just to build a reputation for her candy, accumulate money, and give herself some breathing room. Then when she was able, she would open her own candy shop. She could not spend her whole life supplying goods to others.
"Sister Xia, your price is too high, please lower it! There is no fixed price in business, right?" Li Qingran refused to give up and could not bargain on changing the packaging.
The price in Xia Qiyue's heart is only two liang per can. She is taking the high-end route, not the civilian route. And they will remember which item is cheaper?
So he shook his head, "The price is this price. I have sold it several times before, and it was always at this price. It doesn't matter if Ms. Li thinks it's not suitable. We can still do business as friends if we can't agree on business!"
After saying this, the person stood up, frightening the people behind him. He did not allow any negotiation at all, and the way he gave up his choice after just a few words was so irritating.
But who makes Sisao's crispy candy so delicious because it comes in glass bottles?
"Sister Xia, don't be anxious? Sit down and let's discuss it again!" Li Qingran quickly stood up.
Because her father couldn't help but drive people away, she had to appease the people in front of her. She actually knew that she could sell it if she bought it and raised the price. She just wanted to make a little more difference.
The good stuff will not only bring monetary benefits, but will also improve their shop to a higher level.
Xia Qiyue did not sit down. "If Miss Li is not satisfied with the price, then it is useless no matter how much we say, let's not waste each other's precious time!"
The fat shopkeeper slapped the table and stood up, "Li Qingran, my husband asked you to come to the shop to see things, not to make trouble! If you keep doing this, don't come again tomorrow! A woman who has not left the court should not be exposed in the first place! I am too indulgent of you.
Got it!"
The three people who were startled by the sound of banging on the table all looked at this turn of events blankly, and then looked at Li Qingran's pale face.
Xia Qiyue strongly disagreed with Shopkeeper Fei's approach. Even if she wanted to reprimand her daughter, she shouldn't do it in front of outsiders, and she was a daughter who had not yet left the government.
And Xia Qiyue didn't think Li Qingran was wrong. Even if she was bargaining with her on the opposite side, she didn't think Li Qingran was wrong.
Isn't that how business is done? If everyone is like the fat shopkeeper and agrees to reduce the price without saying a word, how much will he lose?
"Dad..." Li Qingran turned pale and bit her lip, "I'm not wrong!"
"You...you go out first!" The fat shopkeeper was very angry with his daughter, but he still did not continue to shame his daughter and asked someone to go out first.
Li Qingran glanced at everyone, paused for two seconds on Xia Qiyue's face, covered her mouth and ran out.
The fat shopkeeper shook his head and stretched out his hand to ask Xia Qiyue to sit down. "My eldest niece, don't be as knowledgeable as Ran Ran! She also came here to walk around a few times when she got tired of waiting in the backyard. If you have any questions in the future, just ask me. It's just you.
Tell us the price, let’s sign the paperwork!”
Xia Qiyue nodded, "But Shopkeeper Li, please add a clause to the cooperation document. This and the composition document are valid for one year. If either party is unwilling to cooperate after one year, the composition document can be terminated!"
The fat shopkeeper's eyes shrank slightly, and he was a little unhappy. This regulation was very unfavorable to him.
In fact, he is not just a fat shopkeeper who only knows how to eat. He has already predicted the future of halva in his mind, and only when he thinks it will work will he pretend to accept it at a high price just because he likes it, regardless of the consequences.
