Chapter 145: Far from Enough
"It's coming, it's coming!" The next day, when they pulled two carts to the market again, someone shouted loudly. Then they saw the long queue of people in the bazaar.
"Little brother, I'm here again!" At this time, the young man in front of the queue came up, and Yi Xiao saw that it was the first person to receive the ice yesterday.
"Little brother, look, I've organized everyone for you." The young man raised his hand, and said with a somewhat flattering smile, "I received it yesterday, can I still receive it today?" ”
Yi Xiao nodded to the guy and gave him an affirmative look: "Yes!" ”
"Hey......" Xiaohuo smiled a little embarrassedly, and picked up his box again, "The boxes are all brought, and we won't get the boxes today." ”
Qian Feiyue saw that many people had moved the boxes, and she had brought them all herself, and with a simple smile on her face, she felt a burst of warmth.
Today's ice chips and boxes were also quickly distributed, and those who got them replaced their fish stalls with ice boxes, and those who didn't get their hands were still looking in the line.
"Girl," at this time, an old lady walked up, pulled Yi Sheng and asked carefully, "Girl, do you still have ice chips?" ”
"Grandma, today's ice chips have been delivered. Will you come back tomorrow? ”
"Girl, wait, if I buy it, will there be anything else?"
Yi Sheng turned his head to look at Qian Feiyue, and when he got her encouraging eyes, he began to chat with Grandma.
It turned out that Grandma's son was working in Fucheng, and Grandma wanted to send her son some fresh seafood that he liked, but because the distance was too far, she could only send some pickled fish and dried fish every time.
"Grandma, you come back tomorrow, I'll leave you a copy!"
Yi Sheng's words made Grandma's eyes red with excitement, and she pulled her to thank her again and again.
"Hey, girl, girl!" A middle-aged woman heard the conversation between the two and hurried up, "Girl, I want it too." ”
"Auntie, what are you?"
"Hey, my family, there are a lot of people, there are a lot of fish, and I can't sell them every day. I just want to send it outside, but I can't stand the heat. Watching so many fish stink and throw away every day, my flesh hurts...... Girl, I'll buy it too, okay? The woman turned to her head and asked, "But your ice is not expensive, is it?" ”
"Yes, yes, girl, how do you sell this ice?"
"Isn't it expensive?" Someone worried, "If it's expensive, I don't want it." ”
Qian Scarlet Moon stood up and asked the woman who was going to give the fish out to sell, "This eldest sister, how much does your fish sell?" ”
"Hehe, hehehe, not much," the woman said, covering up, "for ten cents a piece, and you won't make a lot of money after selling them all!" ”
Qian Crimson nodded, ten cents is about the price of this market. If you can send it farther, those places that are not on the seaside, the price will definitely be higher, the farther away, the higher.
Scarcity is expensive, just like this ice, which is also a rare thing, at least in the current month.
But she can't sell it expensive. Her first purpose in setting up this small fire ice factory is not to make money, but to spread the surface, and she wants to let as many people as possible with the logo of "small fire".
"Eldest sister, our ice is like this, and it only costs ten cents. You'll earn less per fish, but you'll keep it fresh for a day. If you can send it far in a day, you will earn back a fish. ”
"Okay! I buy, I want ten boxes. ”
"Would you rather prepare your own boxes or use ours?"
"How much does the box cost?"
"The box is fifty dollars a piece, but it can guarantee you for a year, and if it is broken within a year, it can be replaced at any time."
The woman was a neat one, and her face changed after a slight turn of her mind, and she almost said, "Then I'll order more, and you can give me the box." ”
Qian Feiyue watched many people listening carefully, folding her fingers and counting, and nodded at Yi Xiao.
Yi Xiao took out a large poster at the right time and hung it on the car, indicating the price and various preferential means. For example, if you order 300 boxes at a time, you can use the boxes for free. If it is rare to use ice once, you can also rent a box for five cents at a time.
Although it sounds like 300 boxes is a lot, as long as the person who buys it does a little calculation, it is actually only 10 boxes a day. Those with a little more fish need several boxes a day.
"Folks," Yi Xiao saw that everyone already knew about it, so he shouted, "Tomorrow we will give away a free day, if you need more or are worried about not being able to get it, you can book it today, and we will send it together tomorrow." ”
"I want ten boxes!" The first voice sounded, and it was the same young man, who was the first to jump out again, making Qian Crimson Moon, who was observing, raise his eyebrows.
"Then I'll have three boxes too!"
"I want a box."
Soon, the person who placed the order overwhelmed Yi Xiao and Yi Sheng's brother and sister. Thanks to Scarlet Moon, they have a set of forms that can be filled out clearly and quickly.
Because of this "small fire ice factory" that suddenly appeared, the fish market boiled. For almost a whole day, everyone's topic was inseparable from the word "ice".
On the way back, Qian Feiyue asked Yi Xiao: "That young man go and find out." ”
"Good!" Yi Xiao understood what she meant, their eyes would not only stop at the live fish village and a few nearby villages, they would need more and more people.
"Ah Sheng, how many orders have you placed today?" Qian Feiyue looked at Yi Sheng, who was sitting on the board car and counting with her fingers, she had been teaching her numbers and arithmetic for a while, she was very smart and studious, and she already knew the basic addition and subtraction.
Yi Sheng raised his head and replied with some excitement after confirming it repeatedly: "Sister Yue, there are three hundred and ten boxes of ice chips in total, and three hundred boxes. ”
"Wow!" After hearing this, several people couldn't help but exclaim, wouldn't it be that a dozen taels of silver would come in a day.
Qian Feiyue was a little faint: "The box is disposable, and when everyone has it, or if they find out how to make it, they will sell less and cheaper." The box wears out slowly, but the price is high; Borneol, on the other hand, is a consumable product, and the relative price will be relatively low. ”
Everyone nodded, and it was. Of course, it doesn't mean that the box is not important, people who buy the box will be more accustomed to using borneol. And those who have used borneol want to give up again, and they will be eliminated from the market immediately. So their borneol will later become a necessity for the entire fish market.
"That's not a lot." A man was still excited, "If there are more than 300 boxes every day, we can make a lot of money every day." ”
The wages given to them by Qian Feiyue are 20 wen per person per day, and the ice chips sold will be rewarded with one penny per box, and five cents per box as a reward. According to today's order, each of them can get almost 320 wen a day. Compared to mining, it's a world of difference.
Qian Scarlet Moon shook her head, if it was just in terms of making money, it was far from enough.
"Yi Xiao, go to the freezer!"
