Capítulo 2097: Chapter 2094: Waterlon Popsicle
“This sour plum soup has the sa taste as the one from Yonghe Restaurant, and the ice popsicles are probably just sweet ice sticks,” the shopkeeper explained pleasantly.
“It says here that anyone can go and buy stock, shopkeeper, won’t you give it a try?”
Shopkeeper: “Oh, our shop is too busy, you see, we’re so busy we’re rushed off our feet. Moreover, those ice popsicles are obviously cold food, putting them in our shop, I reckon they’ll just lt away in no ti, making it not worthwhile. It’s heard that the sour plum soup tastes even better when chilled.”
“Makes sense.”
This news didn’t attract much attention.
Instead, so young masters from wealthy families casually handed silver to their servant boys, asking them to buy so ice popsicles to taste.
After all, enjoying ice popsicles in the heat truly feels comfortable.
But there were so with flexible minds, genuinely considering buying ice popsicles to sell.
Of course, there were also those who simply enjoyed the spectacle.
anwhile, in the shadows, a few n, ignoring the others watching for amusent or mockery, hurried straight to Yonghe Food Shop in the South City.
These n looked diverse, so tall, so small and thin, mostly strangers, and upon quickly arriving outside the food shop, they found many people already there.
There were even so custors whose original intention was to buy breakfast but ended up hearing about the shop selling ice popsicles and sour plum soup.
They tried it.
And just one taste left them unable to part, seeing the potential to make money from it.
“Shopkeeper, I want a hundred ice popsicles, first twenty cups of sour plum soup.”
“Sure, two ice popsicles for three wen, one hundred would be one hundred and fifty wen. A cup of sour plum soup is three wen, that’s 60 copper coins.”
“Hey, I want a hundred and fifty ice popsicles, and no sour plum soup for now.”
“I want a variety of fruit ice popsicles, two hundred of them.”
So custors, hearing the price, were curious: “Shopkeeper, why does drinking sour plum soup in the shop still cost three wen?”
“Because buying more makes the price cheaper, they are all taking stuff to buy, so naturally, I give the cost price. If you want to buy that much, you can have the sa cost price,” the shopkeeper asserted confidently.
A few dissatisfied custors touched the tip of their noses but couldn’t argue further, since the shopkeeper’s reasoning was solid.
Those who were smart had a sparkle in their eyes, counted on their fingers, and knew how to set prices.
For example, ice popsicles would definitely sell for two coins each, and sour plum soup would sell like in the shop, for two and a half wen per cup.
“Since all of you are getting supplies from , do not sell the ice popsicles for less than two coins each. The fruit flavor in these ice popsicles is made from freshly juiced fruit, delicious and worth buying. You may discuss in advance to sell in different places, avoiding malicious competition.” The shopkeeper did not forget to make a request.
“If there are unreasonable cases of undercutting the prices maliciously, if I hear of it, the shop will refuse to sell to them again.” The shopkeeper was not keen to sign contracts with these small rchants coming to buy stocks.
After all, it’s not a significant matter; selling the ice popsicles can only make small money and support a family, which is no problem.
Thus, such constraints were enough, drafting a contract would be sowhat superfluous.
Many small rchants heard this and felt their faces tighten.
But thinking further, these rare things, just like those who co here for breakfast, are gladly buying one ice popsicle to try; after eating, all praise its cooling and refreshing qualities.
