Farming at the beginning, I rely on business to counterattack and become a princess

Chapter 68: Sword, Light, Sword and Shadow

"Shopkeeper Sun, the production of toothpaste baskets is not complicated, and the cost of raw materials is low. The key lies in the secret recipe; after you get the secret recipe and mass-produce it, it can not only be supplied to Chengnan County, but also sold throughout the country. It is not a problem to sell thousands of dollars a year. , just send us 500 taels?" Wen Xiang sneered.

"Miss Wen, you can't say that. 500 taels is already a lot. Our department store requires a lot of manpower to produce and sell any goods. These labor costs are not cheap. Besides, it is not possible to rely on It can be done with a mouthful, but I don’t know how much money it will cost.” Shopkeeper Sun shook his head and retorted.

"In my opinion, the sales channels are ready-made. You just said that the department store has a wealth of goods source channels, and your suppliers are all over the country. Aren't they interested in our toothpaste basket?!" Wen Xiang asked back .

"In short, as long as your department store sells the goods to the suppliers, they will naturally sell them all over the country for you. The only thing you need to invest is the manufacturing cost, and mass production can quickly reduce the cost. .”

Shopkeeper Sun was a little shocked, this little girl actually knows how to be a merchant!In fact, before this, he had already sent his cronies to inquire about the background of the Wenxiang brothers and sisters. They were pure countrymen with no background at all, and they were not like people who could tell such knowledge.

"Then Miss Wen, what price do you want?" Shopkeeper Sun served tea and water, pretending not to care.

"Shopkeeper Sun, do you still remember the name of the goods we signed the contract to sell?" Wen Xiang suddenly changed the topic.

"Isn't it just a toothpaste basket?"

"Wrong, it's the No. [-] toothpaste basket." Wen Xiang corrected.

"What's the difference?" Shopkeeper Sun asked in confusion.

"Everything we're talking about now revolves around Basket One toothpaste, but Basket One toothpaste is just a mass product, it's nothing."

"I have developed the No. [-] toothpaste. This No. [-] toothpaste is a high-end product. Not only is the raw material cost expensive, but also the formula is unique and the effect is remarkable. It is far from the No. [-] toothpaste. I wonder if Shopkeeper Sun is interested in my new product. Woolen cloth?"

"This?" Shopkeeper Sun's eyes widened: "What do you mean?"

"My No. [-] toothpaste will be put into use soon. I wonder if the department store is still interested in continuing to sell it?"

"Girl, do you have a sample?"

"Not yet."

"Then you are drawing big cakes?" Shopkeeper Sun leaned back in the chair with his upright body.

"At most one month, I can come up with samples."

"So the so-called No. [-] toothpaste, girl, how much do you plan to price?"

"It depends on the final product. I guess it's at least two or three taels of silver." Wen Xiang spoke up without shame.

Shopkeeper Sun stared at Wen Xiang, as if he wanted to see through her head to see if she was telling the truth; Wen Xiang looked back calmly, as if a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.

Poor Wen Dao was ignored, and his eyes moved back and forth between Wen Xiang and shopkeeper Sun, only to see the two glaring at each other, sparks shot out between their four eyes, the atmosphere was tense, and there was a tendency to explode, and one couldn't help but feel frightened.

In the end, shopkeeper Sun lowered his eyelids first: "It would be the best if the No. [-] toothpaste can continue to be sold in the department store, but I don't know what the girl wants?"

"If our No. [-] toothpaste can cooperate happily, the No. [-] toothpaste will naturally be sold by the old company."

"Are you threatening our department store?"

"Don't dare, dare not, my little girl really wants to continue to cooperate with you." Of course Wen Xiang would not say "I'm just threatening you, how about it? What can I do?" Such shameless words.

"Then, please ask the girl to make an offer?"

"500 taels of silver, plus [-]% of the annual profit, the secret recipe of No. [-] toothpaste belongs to you, and No. [-] toothpaste is also exclusively sold by the department store."

Wen Xiang's bold request instantly enraged Shopkeeper Sun, who immediately sternly and flatly refused: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"Hey, Shopkeeper Sun, don't get excited, and don't rush to refuse, why don't you ask your boss first, and then make a decision." Wen Xiang kindly put forward his suggestion.

"Hmph!" Shopkeeper Sun turned his head away angrily. Wen Xiang's asking price involves profit sharing, which is equivalent to a shareholder's request, and he cannot and is not qualified to agree.

A village girl, who is not satisfied with 500 taels, dares to ask for [-]% of the profit, she is simply out of her mind.

However, Mrs. Dong's wife was bound to get the toothpaste basket, and it was really not good to tear up her face immediately. Shopkeeper Sun had to calm down his anger temporarily.

"In that case, those two wait a moment, I'll come as soon as I go." Shopkeeper Sun left in a huff.

After Shopkeeper Sun left, Wen Dao recovered from the tense atmosphere, and said sadly to Wen Xiang: "Little girl, 500 taels is already a lot, why do you ask for a [-]% profit? Isn't it too arrogant?" Open your mouth? What if the department store refuses to buy it?"

"Brother, don't underestimate the potential of our toothpaste basket, it can make more than 500 taels of profit, besides, our No. [-] toothpaste will make more money in the future, the department store will definitely not let it go. "

"Oh, I always feel that we are asking for too much." The small door is still not well-informed, and I always feel that 500 taels of silver is already a huge amount of money, so how dare I ask for more!

Even though Wen Xiang said it confidently, she couldn't help but feel a little worried. This was like a big game. She put on the No. [-] toothpaste that hadn't been seen yet as a bargaining chip, not just for the long-term income of the No. [-] toothpaste.

What [-]% profit is just casually said, what she actually wants is a little right to speak in the transaction, just to test the bottom line of the department store, whether it has the courage and style of a big merchant, the difference between the two Is there any possibility of long-term cooperation between them?

After all, the two brothers and sisters are just powerless white men, if they wrestle with the department store, they will fall down as soon as they break.

At the same time, in the exclusive private room upstairs, shopkeeper Sun and his wife were secretly meeting.

Wen Xiang made a good guess, the department store is definitely going to win the toothpaste basket.

The batch of toothpaste baskets obtained by shopkeeper Sun had already been secretly sent to two familiar suppliers for tentative sales by Mrs. Zhao, the owner.

The results of the trial were remarkable. Thirty toothpaste baskets were sold out, and an order of [-] copies was placed. The two suppliers also made secret glances at the department store, intending to snatch the exclusive right to operate.

Therefore, it is not a question of small merchants imitating toothpaste at all, but a question of department stores wanting to kick Wenxiang away and make a lot of money on their own.

"Boss, this little girl is too ungrateful, do you think you want to—?" Shopkeeper Sun's eyes showed a fierce look.

"Hey, we are serious businessmen, we pay attention to convincing people with reason, don't use knives and guns at every turn." Mrs. Zhao pretended to reprimand Sun shopkeeper, and then asked: "What do you think of the No. [-] toothpaste she mentioned?" ?”
