Li Song has been an apprentice at Carpenter Tan's family for two and a half years. He helps Carpenter Tan with chores every day. Not only can he not make any money, but he also has to pay high tuition fees, so he is very poor now.

Not only that, but he was unable to learn core skills. Carpenter Tan only passed on some carpentry skills to his own family, who avoided him every time.

Fortunately, in half a year, he will be able to leave the army.

Even if you can't learn the core skills, you can still rely on some superficial knowledge to open your own carpentry shop and earn some small money.

As for the rest, just think about it slowly. If you really figure it out, future generations won't have to envy others.

He put the money on the table.

Gu Rao said, "You don't need to pay me. I treat you as a treat. You don't have to be polite to me. Come in and sit for a while to cool down. Your clothes are almost wet with sweat."

He took the five cents back and returned them to him.

Li Song was deeply moved.

"Then I won't be polite this time. If you find anything useful in the future, I will definitely help."

The tables in the courtyard were already full of people.

Fortunately, this situation happens almost every day, so Gu Rao has already prepared a lot of small benches under the eaves, so that people who don't have seats can sit on the small benches.

She moved a small bench for Li Song.

Li Song said gratefully, "Thank you very much. I'll finish the drink and leave. Boss Gu, you can go do your own work."

Gu Rao nodded and went out.

Bieye had already filled two basins of water and was cleaning the milk tea cups nearby. Gu Rao walked over, sat next to the small bench, and washed the milk tea cups with him.

yard.

Some guests looked at the cup and straw in Li Song's hand and asked curiously, "What is that in your hand? What are you drinking? Did you buy it from somewhere else?"

They have been in this store for so long, but they have never seen anything in this kind of cup.

Li Song said, "I drank milk tea."

The person drinking milk tea from the bowl was stunned.

"Are you sure the milk tea you drink is the same as what we drink?"

Li Song nodded, knowing what they were surprised about, and explained, "I use a milk tea cup. It is a milk tea cup that Boss Bie and Boss Gu specially ordered from my master, Carpenter Tan."

The guests were full of curiosity.

"Why haven't I seen the boss use this kind of cup to serve us milk tea before?"

Li Song lowered his head and took another sip from the straw, and then said, "I just sent the milk tea cup over. It's normal if you haven't seen it. In the future, there will be such cups in the store. You can also use this kind of cup when you buy milk tea. It comes in a cup, so you can take it out and drink it while walking, which is very convenient.”

"However, milk tea cups cost extra."

"The milk tea cup I have is made of bamboo, which is cheaper. There is also a cup made of wood, which is more delicate and beautiful, but the price is also more expensive."

"If you are not willing to spend the money to buy a cup, you can only continue to drink milk tea from a bowl."

Some customers stopped trying once they heard it would cost money.

They will definitely try it if it is free, but forget about the things that cost money. There is really no need to spend money on buying a cup just to drink milk tea.

Other customers who were not short of money became even more excited when they saw Li Song drinking milk tea through a straw and heard that it could be taken away.

Li Song drank a cup of milk tea for free, and was worried about how to repay it. Now that so many people are interested, he was naturally happy to help Boss B and Boss Gu publicize the benefits of using milk tea cups to serve milk tea.

"Don't think it's not worthwhile to pay for an extra cup when buying milk tea."

"This cup has a novel shape and can be used to drink water with a straw. Even if it is a cold drink, people who don't like to drink water can drink one or two more cups a day."

"What's more, this cup is not something you drink once and then throw away. You only need to buy it once, drink the milk tea inside, and wash the cup when you go back. You can keep it at home and use it as a cup, or you can buy milk tea next time. Bring a cup with you and ask the boss to put the milk tea in a cup for you to take away for drinking."

“It’s cost-effective and convenient.”

"It's not like you don't know about my master's carpentry work. The wooden cups he makes are sold in the market. Ordinary cups cost several cents each, and those made with better materials cost more than ten cents or more. .”

"Boss Bie and Boss Gu sell it cheap here because they sell a lot at one time and they are acquaintances with my master, so we gave them cheap prices."

"When they came to the shop to order cups, I was right next to them. In order to negotiate the price, Boss Gu spent a lot of time talking."

The person who had stopped thinking at first started thinking about it again after listening to Li Song's words.

"You've said so much, but you haven't told us how much the milk tea cups cost!"

Li Song was a little embarrassed.

He really didn’t know how much Boss Bie and Boss Gu planned to sell the cups for!

Gu Rao walked in just at this time.

"A bamboo milk tea cup costs two pennies, and a wooden milk tea cup costs three pennies."

When the guests heard it, they thought it was expensive.

"Your milk tea costs ten cents, ice costs two cents, and a cup costs two or three cents. Doesn't a cup of milk tea cost fourteen or fifteen cents?"

"The price is too expensive!"

Gu Rao said helplessly, "The price of cups on the market is the same as the price of milk tea cups here. We use milk tea cups to serve milk tea to bring convenience to customers, not to make money from selling the cups. By the way, For the cups we sell to you, we charge the cost price, and we don’t make much profit.”

Li Song, "..."

It’s true that you don’t make much money from wooden milk tea cups. After all, the cost of a cup is almost two pennies. If you only sell it for three pennies, you still make relatively little money.

But the cost price of bamboo milk tea cups is one penny each, and they are sold for two cents each. This has doubled, so they must have made a lot of money.

If he hadn't known the truth and looked at the boss's helpless expression, he would have almost thought that what she said was true. She was indeed a business person, even lying seemed so sincere.

However, he didn't want to expose it, and he didn't dare to expose it. After all, the price of things ordered by customers was not allowed to be disclosed to outsiders.

Not only did Li Song, who knew the truth, almost believe it, but the guests who didn't know the truth almost believed it when they saw that Gu Rao's expression didn't seem to be fake, and the cups on the market were not necessarily cheaper than the ones they had here.

A small number of people are still reluctant to spend money.

Most people are still happy to try new things. They spend an extra two or three cents to buy milk tea in milk tea cups to drink. Some stay in the store to drink it, while others drink it while walking with the milk tea cup.

People drinking milk tea on the road attracted the attention of others.

Unconsciously, there were many more customers coming to buy milk tea than usual.

Yuan's milk tea shop.

Yuan Ke sat in front of his shop, fanning himself impatiently with a cattail leaf fan, while soliciting passing customers. However, after soliciting for a long time, no one came in.

Liu Xiaomei sat inside and said, "Anyway, there aren't many guests now. The weather is so hot, so you might as well sit in and don't show off anything."

Yuan Ke complained, "What's going on today? There are still a few guests in the morning, but at noon, when it's the hottest and the guests are thirstiest and need water the most, there are no guests at all?"

"Usually at this time, our shop would already be full of people."

Liu Xiaomei was also confused.

"We've only been open for a long time. Are they tired of drinking milk tea?"
