Farming: I dressed up as a widow and beat my parents-in-law violently

After the firecrackers were set off, He Chuwei took out the firecracker and lit the two candles one by one.

Everyone looked at him doubtfully.

Some brave ones have already started asking questions.

"Shopkeeper, why are you lighting candles in the clear sky?"

"Yeah, what kind of candles are lit in broad daylight, and why is this candle this color? I've never seen it before."

"I have only seen red candles and white candles before, but this yellow candle is rare."

"How rare are they? You are young. When I was young, all the candles sold on the street were yellow candles, but red candles were very rare."

The sound of the crowd's voices almost caught up with the sound of firecrackers just now.

"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me -" He Chuwei saw that his goal was achieved, he raised the corners of his mouth, smiled, and said loudly to the people in front of him.

The crowd fell silent.

Seemingly waiting for He Chuwei's explanation.

"This candle is shipped from the far south. It is only sold in He shop in Shu County. You can't buy it anywhere else! Even though it looks ordinary, it can burn for ten days!"

When the last words were spoken, the crowd erupted.

"What? Ten days of immortality? Seriously?"

"I'm a good boy. The white candle I just bought burned out in the middle of the night. It will last for ten days. Why don't I believe it?"

"I don't believe it either. This candle isn't very thick. How could it last for ten days?"

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell these candles? If it's as you said, I have to buy a few. My son will be dead next year. Reading at night is too hard on the eyes, so I can only light two more candles. Hey, as a father, There is no way, the money should be spent anyway! If it can really last for ten days, I will buy four of them, and I will definitely save a lot of money."

"Although candles are expensive, you can light oil lamps. This one is much cheaper. Even if you light it all night, it only costs a few cents."

"Oil lamp? That's what the poor use. Besides, the light is weak and the smell is very strong. It's really inelegant to use. How can my son have time to refill oil when he is studying peacefully? Besides, he can't return it when he goes to take the scientific examination outside next year. Are you running away with an oil lamp on your back? If it can really last for ten days, I will have to prepare more for my son."

This person was very disdainful when he heard the word "oil lamp".

It’s like using an oil lamp means you’re a lower class person.

But he doesn't know.

Many families in Baihua Village cannot afford to light such cheap oil lamps.

"If you don't believe it, just wait and see when these two candles burn out and you will know." He Chuwei shouted again.

He asked the two waiters to place the candle lanterns they were holding on the bench that had been moved outside the shop in advance.

One on the left and one on the right, place them well.

Among the crowd of onlookers, many people originally wanted to watch the excitement and did not believe it. It can be seen from his attitude that they had no choice but to believe it.

Someone asked tentatively.

How to sell candles.

He Chuwei stretched out two fingers. "Two hundred pennies a piece!"

"Oh, this is too expensive!"

"That's right, Yang's shop only sells one piece for a hundred cents, and the price is often reduced. It only costs sixty cents. It's too expensive for you!"

"I can't afford it. Who can afford it? Five sticks cost one tael of silver!"

Many people shouted that it was too expensive, and even half of the crowd left.

He Chuwei's expression changed, and he quickly explained loudly.

"Ordinary candles need to be burned at least three in one night. Even the cheapest and inferior candle costs twenty cents. That's sixty cents in one day and six hundred cents in ten days. If it's a better white candle, it's six hundred cents in one day. Three hundred coins, and ten days requires a full three taels of silver! Our candle lasts for ten days and only sells for 200 coins. How can it be considered expensive? Not only is it not expensive, it is also extremely cheap! Three taels of silver and two hundred coins , I believe you all know which one is more cost-effective to choose, right? In this way, today is the first day of stocking, buy three and get one free! For this day only!"

He Chuwei, who thought that not a penny was cheap, had to start activities.

Fortunately, the purchase price of these candles is only about 30 cents each. Even if you buy one and get one free, it is still a big profit.

He Chuwei didn't even feel the slightest bit of distress.

I heard buy three get one free.

People who were not short of money poured into the shop and decided to buy three candles to see if they could last for ten days. There were also a few people who were struggling with the candles placed at the door, but it had been two quarters of an hour since the firecrackers were set off in the shop until now. , the candles have not shrunk at all, so what the shopkeeper in front of me said is probably true.

Worried about missing out on the buy three, get one free event, they quickly entered the store.

After a while, more than two hundred candles were sold.

Excluding the gifted portion.

He Chuwei made at least a dozen taels.

Not only that, people from outside came in in an endless stream.

According to this buying method, he would earn at least a hundred taels a day, which made He Chuwei smile crookedly.

He stood at the door of the shop to greet customers, while two waiters were selling goods in the shop.

Directly opposite is the Yang Family Incense and Candle Shop.

The opposite side, which had a booming business before, had no business at all today.

He Chuwei sneered.

I'm just afraid that the other side will cut prices again to attract customers.

It's a pity that even if it drops to fifty cents, it has nothing to do with him.

Suddenly, a man walked out from the opposite side and met He Chuwei's eyes.

It was Yang Qing.

The two of them looked at each other, one with his chin raised and mocking, the other with an expressionless face but a dark light in his eyes.

Two moments later, Yang Qing returned to the shop. The moment he turned around, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing an evil smile.

down one day.

The He family incense and candle shop was never empty, while the Yang family incense and candle shop only had a few regular customers.

The strange thing is that Yang Qing, who has always lowered prices, did not lower prices today.

He Chuwei was a little confused, but his attention was quickly attracted by the money he earned today.

He couldn't hide the glint in his eyes as he looked at the drawer full of broken silver and copper plates.

"You two, close the shop door!"

Worried that his grandfather and biological father would suddenly come over, He Chuwei ordered the two waiters to close the door of the shop.

He sat at the counter and counted the money.

A quarter of an hour later, He Chuwei was holding the money and smiling from ear to ear.

"Two hundred and thirty taels!!" It was more than he expected! He Chuwei shouted excitedly.

At this rate, I can get my money back in two days.

Although starting tomorrow, the buy three get one free activity will be gone, and there will be fewer customers in the store.

But no matter how bad the business is, it will definitely be sold for dozens of taels.

In one month, wouldn't it be possible to earn thousands of taels?

Then the goods he purchased this time may be sold out in a month.

It seems that we have to purchase the goods in advance.

He Chuwei's whole body cleared away the gloom and became high-spirited.

He took out two pieces of silver from a pile of money and gave one to each of the two waiters, half a tael each. Although it didn't look like much, it was almost two months' wages for the waiter.

The two were recruited just last month.

The waiters at He's shop left too often because He Shanhu and He Wanjiang were too temperamental.
