Chapter 53: Praise

By the next day, my cousin had processed more than 20,000 bags of flour, much faster than planned. With a wave of his hand, Li Dong decided to put it on sale from tomorrow, and these flours should be enough to cope with the rush to buy.

"Wang Fang, are you at home?" Li Dong came to a building opposite and shouted tentatively.

"Who, here?" It's a little familiar, it should be Wang Fang's voice.

"I'm Li Dong from Carrefour opposite, I need temporary workers tomorrow, do you have time?" Li Dong explained his intentions.

Wang Fang opened the door and appeared in front of Li Dong, with an apron tied on his chest and a spatula in his hand, it was not difficult to see that he was making lunch.

"Yes, what time is it tomorrow morning?"

Wang Fang couldn't wait to ask, in fact, the two sisters were not residents of the community, but just came to join relatives in order to find a better job. It's a pity that the business environment here is too poor, and my aunt is not worried about letting them go to the city to work, and in the end they can only do odd jobs in the surrounding area.

"Starting at seven o'clock, it's still the same job, the salary is 20 yuan, and if you do a good job, there will be a bonus." Li Dong gave a briefing on the main situation.

"No problem, we're not afraid of hardship."

"Okay, that's it, don't forget the time."

……

At lunchtime, because there were guests at home, the meal was more hearty than usual, and the original four dishes were increased to seven. Li Dong saw that everyone had almost eaten, and he coughed and said that he had something to announce.

"A-Niang, the flour is almost ready, I plan to sell it tomorrow, and I'll rent a small truck and pull all the flour back. You tidy up the store and make at least 20 square meters of space. ”

"Alright then, I'll get it after dinner." Lu Xiumei replied that she was still very happy, and she would definitely be able to increase a lot of profits now.

"By the way, cousin, you will be closed for a day tomorrow, and some customers may be old and need to provide home delivery services. I'll give you another salary, don't shirk, this is what you deserve. Li Dong knew what they were going to say as soon as he saw his cousin's reaction, and immediately added another sentence.

"Okay, just listen to Dongzi, it's all a family, don't see it too much." Seeing that the eldest grandson was still hesitating, Grandma immediately made a decision for them.

"Well, thank you cousin then." Lu Zhengwei said happily, of course he is willing to make more money.

In the afternoon, Li Dong bought an electric tricycle, which he originally wanted to rent, but decided to buy it when he saw that the price was cheap. After all, there will be a lot of door-to-door delivery services in the future, so I can't let my cousin use them every time.

The storefront was still too small, and Li Dong piled all the empty places with flour, and only piled up less than 2,000 bags. Fortunately, the warehouse is not far from the storefront, and it can be replenished at any time, and even some that need to be delivered to your door can be shipped directly from the warehouse.

Li Dong priced the first-class flour at 6 yuan per catty, but his heart was still not black enough, which was a very conscientious price, a full dollar less than other stores.

This is the retail price, and at the same time, in order to encourage everyone to choose to buy the whole bag, Li Dong also specially adjusted the price of each bag of flour to 280 yuan. In this way, buying a whole bag of flour is 20 yuan cheaper than buying it in bulk, and the attraction is still very large.

The next morning, Carrefour opened on time, but unlike before, there was a lot more flour in the store.

"Oh, boss, how do you sell this flour?" Soon some customers began to ask the price, flour is a staple food, and the daily consumption is still very large.

"Eldest sister, 6 yuan a catty, a bag of 50 catties is 280 yuan."

Lu Xiumei said cautiously, for fear of scaring away the customers. At the beginning, when her eldest son told her the price, she was taken aback, what level and level 2 are for her, and being able to eat a full stomach is the fundamental.

It wasn't until her eldest son took her to a big shopping mall next door and saw the price of those so-called first-class flours that she was convinced. People in big cities are delicate, and if you can make so many tricks by eating flour, it must be a panic of burning too much money.

"What, that's too expensive, isn't it?" The eldest sister was surprised.

Li Dong took the conversation, pointed to a glass photo frame hanging on the wall, and explained: "This is my first-class flour, and lo and behold, this is the test report." If you don't worry, you can test it yourself after buying it back, and we will pay ten for one. ”

"Hey, it's really first-class flour, and the price is a dollar cheaper. Okay, bring me a bag, you have a home delivery service, right? "Sure enough, it's a high-end community, and it's still very generous for high-quality goods.

"Of course, you can leave an address and we will deliver it together. If you are not at ease, you can also choose to pay cash on delivery, but it costs an extra dollar for shipping. Li Dong plans to accumulate ten orders and then distribute them uniformly, otherwise the efficiency will be too low.

"Why don't I worry, can your store still run away?" The eldest sister is also a regular customer, and she is not afraid of Li Dong and their debts, and they can have their territory here.

"Eldest sister, you're joking, my family is the most honest and trustworthy in business." Lu Xiumei also proudly said on the side, the business in the store has always been very good, in addition to the price concessions, a good reputation is also a major factor.

With the lead, the flour quickly became a hot seller, and ten orders were collected in less than ten minutes, and the number is still increasing exponentially.

"Cousin, this is the address, you can send it over quickly, remember to ask someone if you are not familiar with the road."

"Got it, then we'll ship directly from the warehouse." Lu Zhengwei replied.

"Okay, you don't have to come back later, I'll ask Wang Fang to send the order to the warehouse, and you can just deliver it according to the order." Li Dong thought for a while and said.

Near noon, Li Dong counted the data, and a total of 264 bags of bagged flour were sold. Of course, there are a lot of them sold in bulk, and there are 51 bags in total. These customers are planning to go back and try it first, after all, everyone's taste is different, and expensive does not mean that the taste must be good.

At noon, taking advantage of the lack of people, everyone took turns to rest for a while, and Li Dong also went to help his cousin and they delivered flour for a while, and it was not all delivered until two o'clock in the afternoon. Before I could catch my breath, there was another small peak in the store.

"Boss Lu, where did you get your flour from, and the quality is fantastic. I weighed two catties of flour in the morning, and made a meal of dumplings at noon, and my son ate a bowl more than usual with the same filling, and said that my cooking skills had improved. Aunt Li, a customer, said.

"Yes, yes, my father-in-law usually has a poor appetite and a small amount of food. I made a hand-rolled dough for lunch, don't you say it, he ate it vigorously. Sister Zhang, a customer, echoed.

"No wonder I said it, I thought it was my cooking skills that had soared." The customer Xiaoyou suddenly realized.

……

"Didn't I say it, the quality of my flour is the best, it is all freshly ground at home, absolutely high-quality and fresh, everyone always believes it." Lu Xiumei was also full of confidence for a while.

"Boss Lu, bring me one bag, not two bags, and I'll eat your flour in the future."

"Yes, I'll have a bag too."

"Bring me three bags, there are many people in the family."

At seven o'clock in the evening, Li Dong finally saw off the last customer, and the sales in the afternoon were almost three times that of the morning. Carrefour brand flour has finally become famous, and there is no need to worry about sales in the future.

"Auntie, I'll go to the warehouse to take a look, and then you will go and settle the wages of the Wang Fang sisters, 25 yuan per person, and they are also tired for a day. By the way, don't forget to tell them to continue tomorrow. After Li Dong finished speaking, he went out.

"Cousin, how many orders have not been delivered?"

"Alas, there are quite a few, I just counted them, and there are still 214 that haven't been delivered." Lu Zhengwei gasped and replied, this day is much more tiring than grinding flour.

"Okay, let's deliver the rest tomorrow, we've said hello to the customers. Pack up, and we'll go back to dinner. Li Dong pondered whether to keep his cousin and them, there were more fans after this, and he would definitely have to open a branch.

"Okay, we'll send this one back and go back."

Li Dong had no choice but to let them go, but he was firm in his heart to leave his cousin behind.
