Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 470 The Ladies’ Sense of Superiority
After the building was completed, Qiao Jianer went to put the goods in early the next morning, filling up the two floors. In addition to pecans and macadamia nuts, there were also almonds, cashews, pistachios, walnuts, etc. The latter items were also available in this era, but they were of higher quality and could be sold at a higher price.
Mrs. Lu began her career as a proprietress in the capital.
In her hometown, she was in charge of two shops and was very skilled in how to sell goods and how to entertain customers. Moreover, the daughters-in-law of the Qiao family were all genuinely enthusiastic and easily won people's favor.
I heard that the rich and powerful were buying those expensive pecans and macadamia nuts, so ordinary people who wanted to try them, knowing that they could be found here at a suitable price, came to buy them.
In the afternoon, the Nut Shop is very busy.
Qiao Jianer went to the Ya market and picked a few people, including a shopkeeper, an accountant, and someone who was responsible for odd jobs.
When the shops in Ning County and Yongguan County were first opened, in order to save costs, the shopkeeper and the accountant were often the same person. Now there is no need to save costs.
All of a sudden, Qiaoji Nut Shop started to operate in an orderly manner.
People came in and out to buy nuts. The customers came with baskets and cloth bags, and basically they bought at least ten kilograms.
Macadamia nuts and pecans are one tael of silver per catty, and the others are five cents per catty. Varieties of the same price can be freely mixed.
Compared with families in other places, ordinary families in the capital are also very wealthy, especially those who are better off. They have accumulated wealth for generations and have shops or good jobs, so they can save several thousand or even tens of thousands of taels.
So satisfying this kind of snack is not too much of a luxury for them.
On the first day of opening, they sold 3,000 kilograms of nuts. On the second day, they sold more than 8,000 kilograms of nuts, mainly pecans and macadamia nuts, with a total income of 10,000 taels.
As agreed, Mrs. Lu gave five thousand taels to Qiao Jianer, who gladly accepted it.
In one more day, this shop will make back its investment.
Qiao Jianer planned to buy a shop for his eldest aunt when she came. Later, his second aunt and his mother might also come. The Qiao family members were all in the capital, and everyone would receive the same treatment.
If the family splits up in the future, she won't want this half share. At that time, each family can just buy goods from her and pay the wholesale price. Of course, this will happen a long time in the future.
The first two days were the most critical. Qiao Jianer spent most of his time in the shop. Today he just came to take a look, secretly replenished the goods, and then prepared to leave.
A few ladies came to the door. They didn't look like they were here to buy anything, and their expressions were a little arrogant.
Qiao Jianer was afraid that they would find fault with her, so she raised her butt and sat down again.
One of the ladies reached out and grabbed a handful of macadamia nuts, looked at them, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"See, I told you, although these two kinds of nuts are sold here, they are far inferior to what we buy from the county lady."
"Yes, the fruit is much smaller and has some spots on it."
"It's worth the price we paid."
"Only nobles like us can afford to eat nuts that weigh ten taels per catty, and we buy them in hundreds of catties. If other people buy them like we do, they will spend all their money in one go." A noble lady smiled, covering her mouth with a handkerchief.
As if she knew it was wrong to say so, she lowered her voice a little, but she received approval from her companions, who all smiled knowingly, their faces filled with satisfaction.
When they came in, their faces were a little tense, as if they were checking something, but now they seem to be relieved and full of a sense of superiority.
Qiao Lian'er was in the inner room, observing the expressions of the ladies and listening to their conversations.
Of course, she wouldn't be so stupid as to sell the same quality products to nobles at a low price to ordinary people. The levels of product quality and the huge price gap correspond to different classes, which is what the upper class likes to see.
The main focus of Noble is a life experience that is better than what you have and I have.
Even if the quality is worse and the price is not that much higher, they still regard it as a symbol of their identity and status.
They are not happy because the price is too low. They don’t lack the money anyway. The main thing is to distance themselves from ordinary people and have a sense of superiority.
This is the marketing strategy of luxury goods.
If such fat and tender leeks are not harvested, it would be a loss. However, in the eyes of the nobles, they also gained psychological and emotional satisfaction, and everyone got what they wanted.
After a few days of rest, the soldiers regained their energy. Each of them was given a hoe and they went out to cultivate the farmland.
Qiao Jianer rode into the fiefdom and saw the green seedlings swaying in the wind in the villagers' vast fields.
Three miles outside the camp, 50,000 soldiers set off together. They were first divided into countless teams, and then the scope of the mission was delineated. The teams moved towards the center from four directions, raised their hoes, and dug up the land inch by inch. In a short time, they completed an acre of land. Like silkworms eating mulberry leaves, the green grass and slopes were quickly "eaten" up, revealing the bare yellow soil.
Such a spectacular land reclamation team is really exciting.
Of course, vegetation has the function of stabilizing the slope, so each hill has been planned, leaving a considerable amount of original parts and not being excavated on a large scale.
The excavation sites are relatively far away from the villages, leaving space for villagers to reclaim the land in the future.
Many villagers in the village were a little worried when they heard that the camp was digging the ground, so they came to see the situation.
Seeing that a lot of space had been reserved for them and that their descendants for eight generations would not be able to dig beyond the reserved area, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"The county lord is a good person."
"Yes, she's only thirteen years old, and she's not only smart, but kind as well."
After digging for a few days, large areas of open space appeared in Qingfengyuan. Qiao Jianer led a horse team into the fiefdom, and the carriages were filled with precious medicinal herbs that needed to be planted.
Another group of soldiers were assigned to take charge of planting matters.
The business market in the capital was opened up, the army was stationed smoothly, the fiefdom was reclaimed, and medicinal herbs were planted -
Qiao Jianer also began to miss his home in Datian Village.
But even if we ride back at full speed, it will still take more than ten days.
It would be great if people could teleport, Qiao Jianer thought worriedly. Her expression changed. Isn't this function exactly the same as the off-site stockpiling skill that she asked the space team to develop last time?
As long as she is there, can't she stock up wherever she wants?
Summon the butler immediately and tell him the upgraded requirements.
The butler said, "It's pretty much the same. On one level, people are also objects, and can be moved around like other objects. The tele-stocking function is like developing a remote transmission channel, using supersonic speeds to transport objects to where they need to be placed. Because it requires space professionals to develop and operate it, the unlocking fee is huge."
"But a living being is still a living being. If we add people, we have to consider certain safety requirements, so the requirements will be higher. Master, just store the gold coins. I will report your request."
