Chapter 379: Vicious Competition

Zhou Yize and Yan Xiaoxi had a cold war.

He no longer goes to Yan Xiaoxi every day when he is so tired that he fights, talks to her and goes shopping with her, but when he is tired, he seizes the time to rest.

When he made money, he no longer gave it all to Yan Xiaoxi, but carefully put it away and saved it for the future.

And Yan Xiaoxi felt that he had been greatly wronged, and he was angry and didn't come to him.

Not only that, but she also deliberately taught the way to make pear juice to a boy who has always surrounded her.

Dahai's family conditions are a little better than Zhou Yize's, but they are only a little better, and they can only give her occasional gifts such as soap, and they can't afford anything else.

After he learned to make pear juice from Yan Xiaoxi, he treated her better, and felt that she must like herself to tell him such an important thing.

There are not many other people in the sea family, but there are many brothers and sisters.

After he learned the method, he went back to tell his family, and everyone worked together to start making pear juice and selling it.

Of course, Amy didn't know that this was happening, she just found that Grandma Wang didn't make pear juice as happily as before that day.

"Grandma, what's wrong?"

She sat down next to Grandma Wang and asked softly.

Grandma Wang came back to her senses and wanted to shake her head, but she saw the worry in Amy's eyes.

"Alas, there are fewer and fewer people who have come to buy pear juice these days, and the bucket I used to make was not enough to sell, but in the past ten days, there are more and more leftovers, and I have lost a lot of money without making money."

Because of her business, Grandma Wang had more opportunities to deal with all kinds of people, and she also learned some fashionable sayings in the city, and she knew more things.

Without waiting for Amy to analyze, she continued:

"I finally found someone to inquire yesterday, it turned out that there were suddenly a lot of pear juice sellers in Jiangcheng, although the taste was not as good as my cooking, but cheap, as long as less than half the money can buy a big bowl."

Amy asked in surprise:

"But our pear juice is already very cheap, and we can only make a little money from each bowl, so they won't lose money if they sell it so cheaply?"

Grandma Wang sighed.

"I thought so at first, but then I went to a place that sold pear juice and bought a bowl, and I didn't know what was going on until I drank it."

At this, she paused.

Grandma Wang is so old and has a little granddaughter who can live to this day because those kind-hearted people in Mao'er Village and the brigade have been helping her.

So she's always been very kind, and she refuses to speak ill of people casually, but this time-

"They only have a few pears in such a big pot, and the sweet and sour taste is not boiled by pears at all, but by the ingredients. In this way, the pear juice that would have been boiled for more than an hour, they can make it in just ten minutes, and it is very sweet. ”

Grandma Wang didn't know what ingredients they used, only that it was definitely not pears.

But Amy knows that white sugar is still not cheap now, and their pear juice is definitely not added sugar.

"And that taste, I eat it like a craft in our village."

Grandma Wang also used the craftsmanship of the village at the beginning, but after making many improvements with Amy and Mingke, it has tasted much better than at the beginning.

Otherwise, those guests would not have come all the way here to buy her pear juice to drink when they often couldn't buy it because of you and her.

"I know that pear juice can make money, and there will definitely be people who do it, but everyone just do it well, there are so many people in Jiangcheng, and they are not the only old guests who buy pear juice to drink from me. But they sell it at such a low price, and they lie to people that they are also boiled out of pears, isn't it a lie? ”

Grandma Wang slapped the table, still worried that the guests who drank that kind of pear juice would have diarrhea, because many of them were children.

Now the conditions of every household are starting to improve, but it is not so good that you can spend money to buy a bowl of pear juice that is not cheap.

Many of the children in the family saw the greed, and the family felt sorry for the child, so they went to buy a bowl.

Every pot of pear juice she made before was sold after she drank it herself to make sure it was okay, and she didn't know if these pear juice sellers did the same.

"After all, it's the craft of our village, if something really happens, isn't it possible that this craft of our village will be smeared?"

Grandma Wang said so much, Amy already roughly understood.

In the past few months, Grandma Wang has made a lot of money selling pear juice, and she has also met some old customers who often come to buy pear juice, and she has also seen all kinds of things in big cities, and she is not always worried about dragging Amy down like before.

Because there are really too many opportunities to make money in big cities, as long as you pull your face and are willing to work hard, you can definitely live well.

Therefore, after discovering that there are other pear juice sellers, although she is a little uncomfortable, what she is most worried about is not what to do if her pear juice cannot be sold in the future.

It's the ones she just told Amy.

Amy was pleasantly surprised by this change in Grandma Wang, and she took the old man's hand and said:

"Grandma, don't worry, I'll deal with Mingke and Mingke about this matter. It just so happens that the days are getting bigger and bigger these days, so you should rest and rest at home and don't give heat stroke. ”

"But a few children come to drink my pear juice every day, and a few little girls come every once in a while, saying that they can't think about it if they don't drink it."

These people made Grandma Wang feel needed and made her more and more confident.

At the same time, because of the number of times they buy, they also often chat, and they are already cooked.

Let Grandma Wang not sell pear juice without making a sound, she really feels sorry in her heart.

Amy looked at the pear juice in the living room, and her head sparked.

"In this way, when you are fine, you go for a walk over there, and when you meet an old acquaintance who comes to buy pear juice, he will tell you a day in advance that you want to drink pear juice, and you will only do the amount that others have ordered the day before the next day, so you don't have to worry about wasting pear juice, right?"

When Grandma Wang heard this, she thought it was feasible.

As for the money that is less, it is nothing compared to the money wasted by not being able to sell the pear juice.

And she doesn't just make pear juice, she can also make money from other things.

Amy plans to take advantage of this opportunity to turn selling pear juice from a street stall to a store specializing in drinks.

However, the time to open a store is not yet here, so use this method of making a reservation to start cultivating customer habits, and then accumulate word-of-mouth, so that everything will be much easier when you actually open a store in the future.

After making up his mind with Grandma Wang, the old man's mood also improved.

After lunch, Amy went to the house to find Mingke and told him about it.

She used to be alone and made her own decisions about everything.

Now that she and Mingke have been together for so long, they have long been indistinguishable from each other, and they have become accustomed to discussing and solving problems together after encountering them, which is also a good thing for the relationship between the two of them, which can make them closer and closer.

"If it's really what you think, there will definitely be a problem with the person who drinks pear juice, I'll go back and inquire, and I'll give you a letter when the time comes. But how did you come up with the idea of booking this? ”

Not to mention that I don't think so, as soon as Amy explained Coco, she thought of the benefits of predestination.

Amy laughed:

"What do I think of, you look at those big hotels and supply and marketing cooperatives, don't you often say that you can leave a record when you don't have enough things, and wait for them to prepare it next time? I just moved this record forward, and I recorded it first and then did it. ”

Mingke was persuaded by her reasoning and helped come up with a few ideas.

"If you have a small reservation, it is very suitable to send it to the place where you used to buy pear juice, but the problem with this is that everyone has something to do, and it is impossible to come and go at a fixed time, even if you want to come, you can't guarantee that you will encounter other things and delay, so you can't let grandma wait there all the time."

Amy hadn't thought about it.

"Then make an appointment at a time period that is more convenient for everyone, and if you don't take it that day because of something, take the pear juice home and drink it yourself?"

"This doesn't work, because what if someone deliberately does something, comes to grandma to order a lot of pear juice, and then deliberately doesn't come to get it? As you just said, the method of booking has just come out, and it is not realistic to let people pay in advance, so it is very likely that everyone will not take this seriously, and then casually order but do not come to take it. They didn't have anything to lose, but what about grandma, she laboriously made pear juice and spent time and effort waiting there, but people said they wouldn't come if they didn't come. ”

Mingke carefully analyzed the disadvantages of doing this to Amy, and Amy realized that she had thought too simply.

Because in the time she was in, there was already a system in place to prevent this from happening, but that system didn't work at all now.

"So what should I do? Let them come to the house to pick it up? Do it when you want to? ”

The improved version of pear juice retains one of the advantages of the original craft, that is, you can make as much as you want, and you don't have to make a big pot every time and waste it.

But the disadvantage of this is also obvious, if the people who come are too scattered, Grandma Wang has to light a fire again and again to make pear juice, which is time-consuming and firewood.

"No, not to mention that grandma is tired like this, but to say that it is dangerous to let strangers know where you live. In this way, find a store in the neighborhood that everyone can trust, let them make a reservation through the store, and the store owner will pay the money to the grandmother, and the grandmother will make it. ”

Amy looked at Mingke with wide eyes, isn't this the intermediary of the future generations?

"I didn't come up with it myself, there was a method called consignment a long time ago, and you don't know this because your history is so good?"

Consignment is when an individual puts the things to be sold in a larger shop, and then charges a certain consignment fee in the shop, and the person who sells the things can also enjoy the original customer flow in the shop, increasing the probability of things being sold.

However, consignment is risky, and it is possible to pay the consignment fee but the thing is not sold, and you will lose money.

But Grandma Wang is different, her pear juice has already made a name for herself in this piece, and there are more than a dozen repeat customers, so it is absolutely impossible not to sell it!

"Mingke, you are really a great fortune star of our family."
