Chapter 211 Group Buying Begins 4
"Sisters, please listen to me first." Lan Xin quickly interrupted their argument, otherwise they would really fight over these pounds of beans.
Xie Shaowu and Xie Yaozu, who were standing by, also quickly blocked the rear compartment of the tractor, fearing that these people would rush up and snatch the beans.
"What do you mean? Are you still selling beans?"
"That's it."
Originally these female workers were arguing fiercely, but now they were blocked by Lan Xin and the others, and they were immediately frustrated and took out their anger on them.
Lan Xin's expression remained unchanged as she continued, "Sisters, you all heard about the rules from Sister Jiang, right?"
Jiang Hongxia on the side said quickly, "Yes, yes, I have told them, you just do as we agreed before." She was also at the front of the group rushing to grab the vegetables, but Jiang Hongxia still remembered that she was the group leader, and if these people bought vegetables from her, she would get some commission or something!
Thinking of the money, she didn't rush to buy vegetables first, but hurried to help Lan Xin.
Lan Xin smiled and continued, "But it doesn't matter. Let me repeat the rule. Each person can only buy one pound of beans at one cent per pound..."
It was not known whether this group of people were anxious or wanted to cheat, they interrupted Lan Xin and started yelling.
"One pound is one pound, weigh it for me quickly, I won't mind."
Lan Xin followed the sound and looked at the person who was shouting the loudest. She met her flickering eyes, and as soon as she saw Lan Xin, she immediately avoided his gaze, not daring to look at her.
"Can you please listen to what the older sister says? Liu Hongmei, you are just a big talker. I told you the rules yesterday. If you want to buy these cheap vegetables every day, you have to do as she says." Jiang Hongxia on the side was shocked and shouted quickly.
Although the current price of beans at one cent a pound is eye-catching, Jiang Hongxia is a visionary! It takes a lot of courage to open a small shop here just after it was allowed to be run by individuals. She is very smart.
The cheap beans of the day, the vegetable prices that were always cheaper than those of the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the commissions, could not be messed up by this big mouth. If they were pissed off and never came again, she would lose out!
You can lose anything but not money!
Nowadays, people are thin-skinned and have many emotions towards their neighbors. They are afraid of being laughed at. Now that Jiang Hongxia has shouted like this, those who originally wanted to take advantage of the situation have stopped moving and just smiled awkwardly on their faces.
Lan Xin's expression remained unchanged, and she spoke with a smile on her face as before. Apart from anything else, Lan Xin's kind and smiling look could easily touch the hearts of these residents. Thinking of those sales clerks in the supply and marketing cooperative with stern faces and impatient eyes, they would rather deal with Lan Xin and her friends.
Of course, if the price is higher than that of the supply and marketing cooperative, they would still choose to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to be treated coldly.
"…Beans are one cent per pound. It's our benefit. Just place an order and buy a portion of the vegetables to be delivered tomorrow." Lan Xin said as Xie Yaozu, who was standing beside her, handed a stack of printed price lists with tomorrow's vegetable prices to the people in front of him.
While speaking, he did not forget to say, "Sister, look, the vegetables in my house are much cheaper than those in the supply and marketing cooperative, and they are freshly picked every morning and delivered to your family building early in the morning. Isn't it more convenient than you running to the supply and marketing cooperative a few kilometers away to grab vegetables?"
"And now we have benefits. From now on, we will have fresh vegetables for one cent per pound every day. Today it's beans, tomorrow it's eggplant, and the day after tomorrow it might be pumpkin, cucumber or something. Even for these one-cent vegetables a day, you have to look at our price list."
Lan Xin was right about Xie Yaozu. Although he was dark-skinned, his little mouth looked as sweet as honey. He was able to thrive among this group of older sisters, even better than those pretty boys.
Hearing him calling her "sister" and offering her a cheap dish every day, the female workers smiled and began to look at the price list.
Taking into account that most people nowadays have received education, although the proportion of uneducated workers may be smaller, Lan Xin still played it safe by drawing a small icon of a vegetable in front of the text. Just by looking at the icon, which is so lifelike, most people can know what dish it is.
A small A5-sized paper, framed by a grid, with the names and prices of dishes clearly written, allowing people to clearly understand the daily price of dishes. At the top of the price list, there is a striking title: Every family buys vegetables in groups.
Immediately, a worker took over and compared the vegetable prices with those at the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Hey, this lettuce costs 90 cents for two pounds, which is one cent cheaper than the supply and marketing cooperative."
"Tomatoes cost 8 yuan per pound, but the supply and marketing cooperative charges cents per pound."
"This dish... Wow, it's really a lot cheaper."
"Eggs are cheaper than at the supply and marketing cooperative, and at least you can get one more!"
These female workers, in addition to being capable and advanced workers in the factory, are also hardworking and capable at home. They are all clear about the daily vegetable prices in the supply and marketing cooperatives. Now, when they look at the price list, they can immediately calculate that there are quite a few discounts.
Many people began to be tempted, thinking to themselves, the price is cheap, and it can be delivered to the family building, which means it is delivered to their doorstep. It is so convenient, cheap and fresh, why not give it a try?
But some people also have questions: "Why are these vegetables sold in 2-kg or 3-kg portions? They don't sell them by the pound in the supply and marketing cooperatives?"
Lan Xin smiled and said to herself, of course it's to make a profit while being cheap. These few cents give people the feeling of a discount, but of course it's not as much as one or two cents. And they also need to sell in quantity. How much can they sell if they sell it by pound?
But you definitely can't say this to your customers, Lan Xin explained with a smile,
"This is all for the convenience of everyone. We are not like the supply and marketing cooperatives that just put the vegetables there for people to pick. Our group-purchased vegetables are directly picked from the fields according to the quantity. If we buy not enough, how can we make up for it in a short time? You workers work so hard, how can you work without enough to eat?"
"And if you buy these two kilograms of vegetables together, you will get an even bigger discount!" Xie Yaozu, who was standing by, laughed and said loudly as if he was adding a supporting role.
The female workers gathered here all laughed out loud with joy. The resistance in their hearts disappeared at once and they started thinking about what vegetables to buy.
But he didn't stop talking.
"Oh, I like to eat beans. Can you exchange the eggplants that cost one cent a pound for beans tomorrow? If you can, I'll buy them!"
"What if your food is not fresh? Who should I turn to?"
"What? You have to pay us first. What will we do if you take the money and run away?"
