The self-reversal of the cannon fodder fat wife
Chapter 98 Soap goes on sale
On the day they returned to the city, Butler Wan happened to return.
"Madam, I have fulfilled my mission. This soap can finally be mass-produced."
Butler Wan was so excited that he started running before he even entered the house. Looking at his father's immature appearance, Wan couldn't help but shook his head.
Yinuo also stood up excitedly and asked Qixi to pass the message to the Yang Mansion next door and call Gu Yun over.
When Gu Yun came over, he saw the table filled with many kinds of soaps in different colors and shapes.
She picked up the large yellow block on the table. This block was more transparent than the other soaps and much larger, about the size of a palm.
"Is this the sulfur soap you are talking about?"
Yinuo had never made this sulfur soap before, so Gu Yun didn't know what it looked like.
Butler Wan's eyes narrowed with laughter: "Madam Yang, it is sulfur soap."
"I have tried it. This sulfur soap has excellent cleaning properties. It can wash clothes very cleanly and also leaves a nice fragrance."
"According to Madam's instructions, we also made a small sample pack like this for everyone to take back and use."
Gu Yun looked at the soaps and couldn't help laughing as if he saw money.
Yinuo calmly took a sip of water. As expected, there is no one who doesn't like money. If there is, it just means that the money is not enough to impress him.
"Sister, are you free this afternoon? We will go to your shop now to stock up and start selling the goods tomorrow."
Gu Yun's eyes lit up again and again. Even if there is something wrong, you should say it's okay and don't delay making money.
"Of course nothing, let's go now!"
Yinuo really likes Gu Yun's decisiveness and efficiency. He does things quickly and without any procrastination.
So she took Gu Yun and Wan Yi out in a carriage. She originally wanted to let Butler Wan rest at home first, but Butler Wan refused to come with her no matter what. All he was thinking about was making money. When he thought about the money coming into the mansion soon, how could he be willing to stay at home and rest?
The two men discussed it in the carriage. The national price of soap for bathing and washing hair was two taels of silver per piece. It was not a big deal for the rich, but the poor would not buy it. So these two items were sold in jewelry shops and clothing shops. They planned to sell the soap for hand washing and washing in grocery stores, and then keep some for their own restaurant as opening gifts.
There is no grocery store in Gu Yun’s shop, so these two items still have to be sold in the Hua Family Chamber of Commerce’s shop.
So they went to Gu Yun's jewelry shop first and asked the shop assistants to move all the soaps in and clear a space on the first floor to be used as a soap counter.
Gu Yun immediately called the shopkeeper and his clerks together and held a short meeting, telling them how to use the soap and also the trial packs, which could be given to customers starting today. For any purchase of 50 taels or more, a trial pack of soap would be given, for any purchase of 100 taels or more, two would be given, one of each variety, and so on.
This is Gu Yun's own property. The soap is kept here as consignment, so Yinuo does not participate in the buying and selling of soap. This part is all arranged by Gu Yun. She came here just to explain things to Gu Yun and make some suggestions.
The jewelry shop had already been stocked with goods, and soon they arrived at Gu Yun's clothing shop. What Yinuo didn't expect was that this was the clothing shop she often visited.
"Come on, men, and unload the goods from the wagon."
As soon as Gu Yun got off the carriage, he arranged for the servants to move the goods. Wan Yi and the butler stood beside the carriage and directed the servants on how to move the goods.
Yinuo was surprised to see the shopkeeper, Madam Luo: "Madam Luo, we meet again."
Madam Luo was surprised to see Yinuo and Gu Yun coming together: "Hey, isn't this Madam Yi? Do you know our boss?"
Gu Yun introduced with a smile: "More than knowing each other!"
"She is my husband and I's last disciple, and also my godsister."
Mrs. Luo never expected that the young lady who often took care of her business was the sister of her boss.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. If I knew you were the boss's sister, I would definitely give you the purchase price."
Only then did Gu Yun realize that Yinuo always came to his store to buy ready-made clothes.
"I didn't know you came here so often to buy ready-made cloth. Why didn't you tell me that you needed cloth?"
Yinuo is not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others, especially his good friends.
She smiled and took Gu Yun's arm, saying mischievously.
"I didn't know this store was yours. What can I say?"
"This is business, we are talking about business, how can I let you lose money?"
"Sisters should also settle accounts clearly. If you knew it was your store, I also know that you would definitely give me a discount. Let me tell you again, isn't this obviously taking advantage of you, my sister?"
Mrs. Luo, who was standing by, was amused by Yinuo's humor: "Mrs. Yi is really humorous."
It’s a bargain price, that’s a very apt description.
Gu Yun poked her head helplessly with his finger: "A bargain price! You're the one who came up with that."
She turned around and told Madam Luo the purpose of her visit today, and asked Madam Luo to clear out a conspicuous shelf to display the soaps, and placed trial packs next to them.
Yinuo discussed with Gu Yun and finally decided that in addition to selling soap for shampooing and bathing, the clothing store should also sell hand-washing and laundry detergents, because those who come to the clothing store to buy cloth are not necessarily rich people, most of them are ordinary people, and they will also come to buy some cheap coarse linen.
Yinuo also suggested that if the purchase of cloth reached 200 wen, a piece of soap for washing clothes would be given, and if the purchase reached 500 wen, one soap for washing and one for hand washing would be given. This amount might be difficult for farmers to afford, but at the end of the year, every household would buy cloth to make clothes, so this amount could be reached in no time.
Plus, the cost of these two types of soaps is very low, so it’s really worth using them as gifts.
Gu Yun is not only a businessman, she also comes from a medical family. Although she did not study medicine, she is a kind-hearted person. After listening to Yinuo's original intention, she admired him very much and wanted to do her best to help those poor people.
So she also understood the meaning behind Yinuo's proposal. Without her saying anything more, Gu Yun agreed immediately.
Mrs. Luo was very curious about this square thing.
Yinuo suggested: "Madam Luo, you should try it. Only after you have tried it yourself can you recommend it to others."
She asked the waitress to bring a basin of water, and then took out a trial pack of bath soap.
"Like this, wet your hands first, then rub the soap in your hands and you'll be able to create white foam right away."
"Depending on different needs, different things are added to the soap. For bath soap, milk is added to the white one, rose essence is added to the pink one, and chrysanthemum essence is added to the yellow one. The information is all with Sister Yun. You can take a look at it in detail and give it to the employees for training."
"It's the same with this laundry soap. Rub it on the dirty parts of the clothes, just like using soapberry."
Mrs. Luo couldn't help but exclaimed: "This stuff is really useful. Sulfur soap is much better than soapberry and cleans more cleanly."
Gu Yun smiled and said, "Sulfur soap can also kill bacteria. Using it to wash clothes can also reduce the spread of viruses."
Madam Luo believed Gu Yun's words without a doubt. She was a servant girl of the Gu family and was arranged by the master to be the young lady's dowry. The young lady also valued her and made her the manager of the shop, so she would definitely do a good job.
Of course, Gu Yun also trusted Madam Luo, and there was no problem in handing the store over to her.
After a busy day today, Yinuo finally understood the employment relationship in ancient times. In ancient times, except for merchants, officials and nobles, bosses would delegate power to the shopkeepers to handle their business.
Unless they are deliberately framed, they will never show up themselves. They will only ask all shopkeepers to come to their home every month to report on their work (that is, to check the account books), and then arrange for housekeepers to inspect each store every month, and that's it.
Yinuo finally put down the heavy stone in her heart.
From now on, all business matters will really depend on Gu Yun and Butler Wan. She won't even have time to reconcile the accounts. It's really a pure technical investment. She is really afraid that Gu Yun will be dissatisfied with her for being a hands-off boss in the future.
Now it seems that Gu Yun really won't complain about herself anymore. It's not because of the relationship between everyone, but because she doesn't need to worry too much. She will just be busier when reconciling the accounts every month.
Yinuo smiled secretly in her heart, she found a good reason to exploit Gu Yun.
