After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 64 Jam Tasting
Mr. Li thought to himself, "I can't just reveal the truth so soon, or they'll come and mess with me again. I can't take it."

Su Xiaoxiao understood, so she said to Boss Li, "Actually, Boss Li, we're not here to buy anything, we're here to promote something. This is our homemade jam, and we'd like to consign it to your shop."

Mr. Li sighed.

"Ugh!"

"To be honest, my shop is on the verge of closing down. Forget about consignment, I'm even trying to get rid of these dusty items on the shelves at a low price. I'm worried no one will buy them! How about I sell them to you cheaply?"

Upon hearing this, Sanlang immediately waved to Boss Li.

"No, boss."

Su Xiaoxiao smiled after hearing this, "Don't worry, Mr. Li, I won't cheat you. I'll put the jam here on consignment and I won't charge you any money first. You can try selling it first, and I guarantee that after putting the jam here on consignment, it will definitely revive your grocery store business."

The owner of Li's Grocery Store was quite puzzled when he heard this. "What's going on? Are you telling the truth?"

Su Xiaoxiao's face was very serious, and she didn't look like she was joking.

"Oh, my wife, I am truly touched that you want to help me. However, this is still not feasible."

Mr. Li sighed and said, "I still find this matter quite difficult. I think it's unlikely, mainly because Mr. Sun is too good at doing business. If I do this, not only will I get into trouble, but I'll also ruin my own business."

Su Xiaoxiao smiled after hearing this, "Mr. Li, don't worry, I guarantee your business will be revived. And you won't suffer any losses, you'll just put this jam in your shop and sell it."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Li realized that it seemed to be true.

Su Xiaoxiao then took out a jar of jam from her bag, scooped some out in a small bowl, and handed it to Boss Li.

"Look, this is our family's jam."

Mr. Li was first attracted by the jam jar that Su Xiaoxiao took out. He never expected that the jar would be so elegant and exquisite.

Next, the color of the jam is very eye-catching, and it smells wonderful; it's truly a good product.

He took a bite first, and then Su Xiaoxiao immediately gave him a thumbs up.

"This jam has a very rich flavor and a wonderfully refreshing taste. Did you make it yourself?"

Mr. Li couldn't believe the jam Su Xiaoxiao had made. The jam was priced at ten coins, but Su Xiaoxiao set the price at eight coins for Mr. Li as a promotional discount before starting to consign it.

Once a good reputation is established, the price will be raised to ten coins.

Su Xiaoxiao asked Boss Li to clear out the most prominent spots in the shop, and then place Su Xiaoxiao's Baihua brand jam in the center of the shop.

The porcelain jars for this jam are indeed exquisitely made; once placed there, they add a touch of elegance to the otherwise shabby shop.

Mr. Li was very satisfied, and both parties signed the agreement.

Mr. Li decided to dedicate fifteen days specifically to selling and promoting this jam, and see how it went.

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao laughed and said, "Actually, Mr. Li, you don't need to worry so much. Our jam business is doing very well, and we'll be so busy that we won't be able to keep up with the demand."

Su Xiaoxiao looked very confident. She even took out a steamed bun, covered in jam, and handed it to Boss Li to try.

"Try it." Mr. Li took the slice of steamed bun. He hesitated for a moment, but after eating it, he was truly impressed.

"What is this good stuff? Is it delicious?"

Dipping fresh jam on slices of steamed bread does indeed add a unique flavor to what would otherwise be a very ordinary steamed bread slice.

“Really delicious.”

Mr. Li praised Su Xiaoxiao, and these were words he truly meant.

At this time, some customers also came to the door and came to watch.

Su Xiaoxiao decided to seize the opportunity and called out to the customers, "Today is the first day that our Baihua brand jam is on sale, and we will be having a free tasting event for everyone. We hope you will take the opportunity to come and try it."

When the customers heard that it was a free tasting event, they all rushed over to line up.

Su Xiaoxiao first handed it to a middle-aged woman holding a child. The woman tasted it herself first, and then gave it to the child in her arms.

After finishing the food, the child clapped his hands and said, "Delicious!"

So, after she finished eating, she immediately said to Su Xiaoxiao, "This jam is delicious, I want to buy some."

Upon seeing this, Mr. Li, the shop owner, quickly gestured for them to go over there to buy jam.

The first jar of jam sold out so quickly, much to Mr. Li's surprise.

Selling a jar of jam on the very first try made Mr. Li feel that this was incredibly easy.

Other parents with children saw that the mother had bought jam for her child, so they came over to try it and said it was delicious. They all thought they should buy a bottle to try as well.

Mr. Li, who was standing to the side, was also taken aback by the situation. He wondered to himself, "Is this how business is done? Why does it seem so simple to Su Xiaoxiao?"

Moreover, a little bit of publicity was enough to open up the market, and now their grocery store is packed with people.

Mr. Li never expected that selling jam would be so simple and easy. He thought that today was market day for his shop, but he never expected that the business would take off so quickly.

Sanlang and Su Xiaoxiao were busy with the tasting event at Li Ji's door. Even at the end, he still admired Su Xiaoxiao's wisdom and decisiveness.

Why didn't Mr. Li attract any customers? The reason is that his business practices were too old-fashioned. He never expected that Su Xiaoxiao would have such a novel way to attract customers.

As Su Xiaoxiao came out of Li's General Store, she saw that the owner of Sun's General Store across the street was peeking out and looking in their direction.

Although he looked down on this place, he boasted to his men, "The good business here is only temporary. I guarantee they won't last more than a few days."

Su Xiaoxiao and Sanlang ignored him, letting Boss Sun be arrogant and conceited, and seeing how long he could keep up his good mood.

After Li Ji's business gradually improved, Su Xiaoxiao thought of using this trick on their stall at the market as well.

After all, retail jams are cheaper, and their market is primarily ordinary people. Therefore, giving these consumers samples would definitely have a more noticeable effect.
