Chapter 585: Good Products Will Be Unsalable [Asking for a Monthly Pass]
Hu Dabao's words exposed the shortcomings of small places at once.
A small city like Linping City, which is a fourth- or fifth-tier city.
Prices are low, and so is per capita income.
Everyone has a need for material things, but this demand is built within the scope of affordability.
Buying things has always been to shop around, and you can save a little bit.
I have never been interested in good quality but very expensive goods.
They prefer to buy goods of average quality, after all, the price is cheap.
This is especially true for sesame oil.
Now the market price of sesame oil in Linping City is generally more than 20 yuan.
The sesame oil made by Hu Dabao must be sold for at least thirty-five thousand catties before it can be profitable.
With so much difference, everyone naturally won't buy it.
It's not that the people of Linping City don't know the goods, the main thing is that they really can't afford it.
Within their means, they don't mind improving their quality of life.
But once it exceeds the tolerance range, there is nothing that can be done.
This is the reason for the low sales of Hu Dabao's sesame oil.
Hu Dabao sighed and drank another glass of wine, then looked at Xu Zhuo and asked, "Brother, do you know how this thing is adulterated? Is it mixed with salad oil or rapeseed oil......? I can't hold it anymore......"
The best sesame oil on the market will be mixed with cooking oil.
So Hu Dabao also wants to try.
Reduce costs and lower prices so that you can increase sales.
His craft of making sesame oil was taught by Xu Zhuo, and he didn't know how to adulterate.
So take this opportunity to ask Xu Zhuo for advice.
However, he asked in vain, because Boss Xu didn't know much about how this thing was adulterated, and the skills given by the system were not adulterated......
In this life, I'm afraid I won't be able to be a profiteer.
Xu Zhuo sighed, looked at Hu Dabao and said, "Don't worry, don't keep staring at the people who go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, look farther." β
Hu Dabao was stunned for a moment: "Why don't I move the big market in the new district?"
Xu Zhuo was a little speechless, why did this person do it with the market?
"That's it, when my godmother comes back, add the sesame oil you made in her online store, as long as you keep the sesame oil of this quality, there will definitely be sales. β
When Xu Zhuo first made sesame oil, he also planned to do so.
However, making sesame oil is too time-consuming and does not help much in cooking, so he only makes sesame oil used in a few of his own stores.
A few days ago, Yao Meixiang wanted to add the sesame oil made by Xu Zhuo to the online store, but the production of sesame oil made by Xu Zhuo was really limited, so this thing never came to fruition.
Now, he finally has an excuse to reply to Yao Meixiang.
And it can also solve the problem of poor sales of sesame oil made by Hu Dabao.
After Hu Dabao listened to Xu Zhuo's proposal, his frowning brows finally relaxed.
"When will your godmother come back? Is the sales of her online store high? If the sesame oil is just added, will no one buy it?"
He asked several questions in a row, which surprised Xu Zhuo.
"Do you have a batch of sesame oil in your hand, which makes the capital turnover unable to open?"
Hu Dabao bit his lip and nodded helplessly.
"Before the Chinese New Year, I thought that everyone would do New Year's goods at the end of the year, and sesame oil would sell well, so I bought all the money in the family into sesame seeds, and made three hundred catties of sesame oil and five or six hundred catties of sesame paste......"
However, he reluctantly found that no one bought his own handmade small grinding sesame oil.
The vegetable market is bustling every day, and there are many people doing New Year's goods, and they are also very interested in the sesame oil he makes.
But when you ask about the price, people basically don't look back and leave.
These days, Hu Dabao is looking forward to a miracle every day.
even comforted himself with the example that the aroma of wine is not afraid of the deep alley.
In order to attract those who visit the vegetable market to buy, he even directed and acted in a play of breaking the sesame oil bottle to attract attention.
As a result, after everyone praised the taste of sesame oil, they were busy with their own work, and few people bought it at all.
This made Hu Dabao exhausted.
In addition, the New Year is approaching, the family still needs money to buy New Year's goods, and the children also need money to buy new clothes, in addition to honoring both parents, visiting relatives and friends need to bring gifts.
It's not settled yet.
Xu Zhuo took a piece of mutton and gnawed it in small bites, feeling that Hu Dabao was really reckless.
Put all the funds on this, I guess the family doesn't even have the money for New Year's goods, right?
It's a bit presumptuous.
But come to think of it, it's not all about life.
If the family has a lot of money, who would worry about it.
With so much sesame oil and sesame paste, Xu Zhuo really couldn't think of any good solution for a while.
If he wants to put it aside, he can ask Chen Guifang to help sell it.
It just so happened that Chen Guifang was also coveting the small grinding sesame oil she made.
But at this time, Chen Guifang was swimming in the Maldives, and she didn't have time to worry about this.
And Yu Changjiang, who is also capable of solving these sesame oils, should now have a big meal at a French restaurant on the Champs-ΓlysΓ©es in Paris.
It's a bit out of place to contact him about this now.
As for the people in China, everyone is celebrating Chinese New Year's Eve, and the contact will hang up after a year at most, and people don't have time to listen to your nagging, let alone worry about business.
Xu Zhuo thought for a while and said to Hu Dabao: "Otherwise, I'll help you ask after the fifth day of the new year, if you don't have any money, take some from me and spend it first." β
Hu Dabao laughed dryly: "The money for the New Year is enough, I borrowed 10,000 yuan from WeLoan, and now I am worried about the problem of sales......
This one......
Xu Zhuo couldn't do anything.
Keep drinking.
Hu Dabao was unhappy in his heart, and he was beaten very badly by his daughter-in-law, so he poured one cup after another into his stomach at this time, and he had the posture of using wine to eliminate his sorrows.
"Lao Hu, don't drink it, your wife should beat you again when you drink too much later. β
Hu Dabao originally wanted to drink it, but after listening to Xu Zhuo's words, he put down the wine glass in a daze.
Alas!
It's a hard time.
Xu Zhuo flipped through the address book on his phone.
wants to help Hu Dabao, after all, he is so miserable now, and he also has a certain responsibility.
But at this point, and it's still Chinese New Year's Eve night, it's really not easy to dispose of so much sesame oil and sesame paste......
Just when he was in a dilemma, Zhao Jinma's called.
Xu Zhuo was a little surprised.
At this point, how did this old man remember that he was calling?
Is this taking the initiative to pay New Year's greetings to future apprentices?
After pressing the answer button, Xu Zhuo first spoke: "Grandpa Zhao, I wish you good health in the new year, all your wishes come true, and all the best." β
Tonight, this has been repeated many times.
That's why it's easy to say.
Zhao Jinma also said Happy New Year.
Then he said a little embarrassed: "Xiao Zhuo, the owners of our provincial hotel are all having dinner with me tonight, and they are very interested in the sesame oil and sesame paste you make, if you have any surplus, can you ...... Can you give them a little more even......"
