Three points are destined, seven points depend on face

At this time, Li Yue'e and Shuan Ziniang were still shopping in the West Market when they heard someone chatting.

"Hey, have you heard about it? Jinlan Cloth Shop is holding an event today. What is it... guessing and winning cloth!"

"Win the cloth guessing game? Then the boss will suffer a loss?"

"I don't know! But a lot of people are going there. If you don't take advantage of me, bastard, why don't we go and have a look?"

"Go, go, go and see!"

Li Yuee and Shuan Ziniang looked at each other.

What is "guessing and winning cloth"? I feel so uneasy. What stimulated Chuntao?

"Shall we go and have a look too?"

When the two returned to Jinlan Buzhuang...this street, they were dumbfounded.

The whole street was crowded and bustling. The further we go towards Buzhuang, the more difficult it becomes to walk, so we basically move forward slowly.

Shopkeepers from nearby shops all came out to maintain order. It has to be said that these shopkeepers still have a way of maintaining order while attracting a wave of customers to their own stores.

Especially the nearby teahouses and sour plum soup stalls. Because the weather was too hot and everyone was under the sun, they were all thirsty and fuming, so their business was booming along with Buzhuang!

Li Yue'e and Shuan Ziniang finally moved to the cloth village. Before the two of them could say anything, the sharp-eyed Xia Chuntao slipped over to help.

"My sisters-in-law came back just in time! Please help the two sisters-in-law to pack up the fabrics, cotton handkerchiefs and ruffles. They are almost overwhelmed."

Several people were busy until it was getting dark, and then they saw off the last wave of guests. During this period, Xia Chuntao asked Shuan Ziniang to follow Lao Zhengtou's car back to Daxi Village first, and asked her to bring a message to the children that she would go back later today.

Originally, Xia Chuntao planned to come to the county town to settle accounts with Lady Fang tomorrow. But Madam Fang couldn't wait to calculate the day's revenue.

So, Madam Fang, Xia Chuntao and Li Yuee lit the oil lamps and started taking stock.

The results of the accounting shocked Madam Fang and Li Yuee!

The store has 18 pieces of overstocked materials, all of which are sold at a 20% discount!

Sales of other fabrics: eighteen pieces of coarse cloth, fifteen pieces of fine cotton, five pieces of silk, and eight pieces of satin. All the cotton handkerchiefs and tapes as gifts were cleared away. I also sold some silk flowers.

After deducting the cotton handkerchiefs, ruffles, and the fabric given away by Xia Chuntao as gifts, the total revenue from the entire fabric was two hundred and eighty-four taels!

A total of fifteen pieces of ready-made garments were sold, with a total revenue of thirty-six taels.

The total revenue is 320 taels, which is equivalent to the revenue of Buzhuang for nearly three months!

Looking at the empty shop, Mrs. Fang still hasn't come back to her senses.

Li Yue'e did not hesitate to give in. She still doesn't understand why those people come to Buzhuang to participate in activities one after another as if they don't need money?

The two of them looked at Xia Chuntao with admiration to the extreme!

In fact, from Xia Chuntao's point of view, it's not that her marketing methods are awesome, it's just that she has caught up with an era when entertainment is scarce. Today's show can be regarded as both a business and an entertainment activity that you have never seen before!

Unexpectedly, in the last two hours, many of the customers who came were wealthy households in the county. I am not short of money, I just think this activity is interesting and I am bored at home, so I came out to have fun.

Without these wealthy households, those silks and satins would not be sold. Ordinary people, who want that stuff?

"Ms. Xia, based on 20% of the revenue, which is sixty-four taels, I will give it to you right now."

Madam Fang followed Xia Chuntao's request and gave her six 10-tael silver notes and four taels of loose silver.

Xia Chuntao carefully put the money in the cloth bag and said goodbye to Mrs. Fang with a smile.

Madam Fang couldn't let go of such a golden egg, so she asked Xia Chuntao a little uneasily: "Madam Xia, I don't know if it's convenient for you to come to my cloth village to work. If you can come, I can give you five taels of silver each." I’ll give you a month’s wages!”

Li Yue'e gasped at the side and pulled Xia Chuntao hard.

What is the concept of five taels of silver a month?

As far as Li Yue'e's family is concerned, her husband-in-law is a pig butcher, and he only earns two taels of silver a month at most, which is among the highest incomes in the entire Daxi Village!

If Chuntao stayed to work at Madam Fang's place, she could easily earn five taels of silver a month without being exposed to the elements. Where else could she find such a good job?

Xia Chuntao smiled and declined Madam Fang's invitation.

She wants to be a landlady. When will she be able to realize her dream of owning a villa as a clerk?

That’s right! She has set a lofty ambition for herself——

Own a villa of your own! Be a landlady with fields and food, no worries about food and drink, and occasional travel.

Mrs. Fang was very disappointed to see that Xia Chuntao had no intention of coming to work.

"Ms. Xia, if you really don't want to come, I won't force you. But I still have something to ask for."

"Ms. Fang, you want to ask about the future operation of the store, right? I suggest that Mrs. Fang try not to use today's sales method in the future."

Madam Fang was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect Xia Chuntao to see her intention at a glance.

"Why is this?"

Even Li Yue'e on the side was puzzled. The sales were obviously very good today.

"First of all, with this method of guessing, unless you, Mrs. Fang, can find someone who can control the outcome, you are just shooting yourself in the foot."

"Again, the reason why the Xiaoboda method works is because there has never been such a sales method before, and everyone finds it novel, which is why so many people participate."

"In general, we were able to sell so many goods today just because we had a head start. If we often use this method, to be honest, we may not even have enough people to participate. The final result is that we will cause trouble for ourselves. .”

Madam Fang understood Xia Chuntao's words, and thought about it, this was really what happened. Thinking about it now, everything today seems unbelievable, but there are actually so many ways behind it.

Lady Fang couldn't help but admire Xia Chuntao even more.

This woman is not simple.

"I would also like to ask Madam Xia to give me some advice on how to run my store in the future."

Worried that Xia Chuntao thought she was going to have sex for free, Mrs. Fang added: "Don't worry, I will pay you regardless of whether your suggestion is successful or not."

Xia Chuntao looked at the dark sky outside and said to the other lady:

"Well, I will come to the county in two days, and we will discuss it in detail then."

Madam Fang was overjoyed and responded repeatedly.

Knowing that Xia Chuntao originally came to the county town to buy cotton batting and fabric to make quilts and clothes, he packed several ready-made quilts and a lot of fabric for her. Xia Chuntao refused repeatedly, but Mrs. Fang didn't care and asked the waiter to deliver the things to Lao Zhengtou's oxcart.

Although I knew Madam Fang wanted something, her attitude was very sincere.

Xia Chuntao will treat sincere people in return. She should make a good plan for her store next time.

Before leaving, Xia Chuntao asked Mrs. Fang to compare the differences between the newly opened store and her own store in order to make subsequent plans.
