Chapter 206 Risks and benefits coexist
"It's Miss Taotao!"
"The girl is out!"
"I have some money with me today, I must grab some cheap goods!"
People were talking at once, and Jiang Tunan slowly walked onto the stage under the gaze of the crowd.
Jiang Tunan: I’ve made it. Is this what it feels like to be a female star?
"Good morning, everyone~"
Jiang Tunan first greeted the audience in a friendly manner. Xiao Mingxu, who was sitting at the tea stall, held his chin up and said thoughtfully,
"Why do I feel like I've seen this Taotao somewhere before?"
Hao Youcai thought Xiao Mingxu was joking and didn't take it seriously.
"It's still the same old rule. Before the promotion starts, I'll give everyone some benefits."
Everyone was delighted when they heard this, and they all praised him.
"Miss Taotao is really honest. She always gives money without saying anything."
"Miss Taotao is very nice. Last time, she even paid for the price herself to get it down for us."
"Only idiots like you believe that. I don't believe she can't make money by selling things."
Suddenly, a very discordant voice mixed in the crowd. Among them was a middle-aged man in a long gown with a look of disdain on his face. Next to him stood a woman wearing very expensive clothes.
"What do you mean?"
Someone in the crowd asked, and the middle-aged man answered,
"I am also a businessman. As far as I know, no one in this world is willing to do business at a loss. I think you have all been cheated."
The person who spoke was the owner of Youshizhai, and next to him was Huangfu Yue who had just come down from the teahouse.
"You are also a businessman, so it seems that your business must not be done well, otherwise why would you come here to say sour words."
"you!"
The shopkeeper was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Uncle Liu."
Huangfu Yue reminded him, and the middle-aged man calmed down a little. Huangfu Yue stepped forward and said to the man,
"Don't blame me, auntie. My uncle is also afraid that you will be deceived."
The aunt said with displeasure,
"Miss Taotao treats us as her family, how could I not know if she is lying?"
"Besides, you have to make money selling goods, so what's wrong with letting her make a little?"
Huangfu Yue didn't expect this person to answer like this. Even though she had witnessed many big scenes, she didn't know how to answer at this moment.
"Besides, I got fifty coins from the red envelope last time, but I only spent thirty coins on the pen, so I made twenty coins."
The aunt muttered a few words and squeezed forward.
Jiang Tunan on the stage had no idea what was happening below the stage. He only continued to speak after 100 people had registered.
"Family members, these past few days some of them have been asking me why I didn't hold a sales meeting. Actually, it's because I have been negotiating with the people at the source of goods these days."
"Last time we saw that everyone liked our spotted brushes very much, so we went to find the master again, hoping to buy all the remaining brushes he had."
Everyone looked at Jiang Tunan with hope. After the last promotion, Jiang Tunan hired many internet trolls to promote Mozhuxuan's spotted brushes everywhere. It was not an exaggeration, but he just said intentionally or unintentionally that the spotted brushes could indeed help in practicing calligraphy.
It is said that if you can wear out five spotted brushes, your handwriting will improve significantly.
In response to this, Jiang Tunan just wants to say, you have practiced calligraphy to the point of wearing out five brushes, it would be strange if your handwriting doesn’t improve.
"After our efforts, we have received the last bit of stock of spot brushes. Without further ado, everyone who has been to our promotion knows how good our brushes are. At the beginning of today, I will start with fifty."
Someone in the audience was complaining.
"There are only fifty of them. It's impossible to get one."
"I'll buy ten of them today."
"You're going too far. What are you going to do with all the people behind you..."
Jiang Tunan said apologetically,
"I'm sorry, folks, we don't have a lot of stock, so we can't ship too much at once."
Weird.
"But please rest assured, we will not raise the price. It will still be 30 cents per stick."
When the people in the audience heard Jiang Tunan say this, they felt relieved. If it were any other merchant, with such limited stock of these spotted brushes, they would definitely raise the price.
"Miss Taotao is still the best..."
"That's right..."
Listening to the people around him praising Miss Taotao, Huangfu Yue's eyes darkened.
"Find an opportunity to let this Miss Taotao meet me."
Huangfu Yue gave some instructions to the shopkeeper Liu beside him and went back to the teahouse.
Xiao Mingxu saw Huangfu Yue early on and had been silently paying attention to Huangfu Yue's movements.
"Why do you think the Huangfu family is here?"
Hao Youcai also noticed Huangfu Yue. The people of the Huangfu family have always been arrogant and proud. He didn't think Huangfu Yue had the leisure and elegance to come here to watch.
"Of course I'm here for Miss Taotao."
Xiao Mingxu looked at Jiang Tunan on the stage.
"It seems that I'm not the only one who is interested in Miss Taotao."
Jiang Tunan hyped up the popularity of the spotted brushes and took advantage of the popularity of the brushes to launch some other ordinary products.
Taking this opportunity, Jiang Tunan introduced his own scientific examination review book to everyone.
"This is a type of book, which is specifically used to lay the foundation. The second type of book is compiled based on the different focuses given by the Ministry of Rites every year, so there is no such book now."
Some ordinary people or parents of children were not very interested in this, but some scholars were attracted to it.
"The Ministry of Rites will give different emphases for each joint and provincial examination. In the past, candidates had to buy the latest edition of books every time..."
Perhaps Jiang Tunan hit the nail on the head, as more and more students came over here.
"But every time the latest edition of the book contains a lot of duplicate content with previous editions, it is such a book that every candidate has to buy."
"A book can easily be sold for ten taels of silver, which is hard for ordinary people to afford."
Only then did Xiao Mingxu in the audience begin to look carefully at "Miss Taotao" on the stage.
"After the reform, we at Mozhuxuan launched a new series of scientific research books. One type of book is used to lay a solid foundation, and the content is written according to the same outline every year."
“The second category of books is used for improvement and is written based on the focus of each year’s update.”
"That is to say, students no longer need to purchase duplicate content every year."
As soon as these words were spoken, the scholars in the audience were all overjoyed.
Since ancient times, books have always been expensive, with any one of them costing between one and three taels of silver.
Books about scientific expeditions will only be more expensive.
If you only need to buy updated second-category books every year, you can indeed save a lot of money.
"This Miss Taotao seems to be really kind-hearted. This move is indeed beneficial to those poor students."
Hao Youcai was praising him, but Xiao Mingxu shook his head.
"Although this is a good move, it will undoubtedly affect the interests of most of the study rooms in Kyoto. I'm afraid that Mozhuxuan will not be at peace in the future."
"It all depends on whether the owner behind Mozhuxuan dares to take advantage of this wave of dividends."
