Chapter 217: Make an Upgrade
After settling the bill, the two were not in a hurry to take the money. They just asked Aji to record it in the account book and then put the money away.
At that time, what we discussed with Mr. Jiang was the profit sharing, so it would be better to settle the accounts together at the end.
Aji has been following Jiang Chengye and Jiang Dayou to do business all over the country since he was a child, so doing these things is naturally a piece of cake for him.
After everything was packed up, Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin asked Aji to take them home and they had to go back to make toothpaste and toothbrushes.
Before leaving, Zheng Yuan took out money from his pocket and gave thirty cents to each of the three employees as a reward for their hard work in opening the business today, and also as a kind of employee benefit.
The three men were unwilling to accept it. They had agreed to pay 500 coins per month. This was already a very good income in the city, and the three managers were so kind to them, so how could they charge extra money?
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin just said that it was a good omen for the opening of the business and it would be bad not to accept it.
After hearing this, the three waiters accepted the gifts very embarrassedly and bowed to the two men again and again to thank them. Seeing how excited they were, they would have knelt down if they were not stopped.
The two could only comfort them that if they performed well in the future, they would be given rewards from time to time, so as to encourage them to work hard.
The three of them promised repeatedly that they would pay more attention in the future.
In fact, this can be considered a way to win people's hearts. Both of them were employees before, so they naturally know what employees want most.
Employees come to work for a few coins and a better life. Talking to them about life ideals, collective honor, and future development is all bullshit.
If you want your employees to work hard for you, the best way is to pay them enough salary.
After instructing the three waiters to clean up the shop and go back to rest, they should come back to open the shop early tomorrow. Then they packed up their things and got on the carriage back to Laohuaiqing.
This carriage was indeed much faster, and it returned to Laohuaiqing in a little over an hour.
There was no time to rest after returning to the village. They went straight to the factory, asked everyone to work harder, promised to pay wages on time at the end of the month, and then plunged into the kitchen to make toothpaste.
Looking at this situation, the workers know very well that the business is so good that they need to rush the work, and their enthusiasm for work is unstoppable.
Fortunately, Jiang Chengye had prepared a lot of raw materials before, otherwise he really wouldn’t know what to do now.
Old Mrs. Chen was also happy for them, and asked Chen Changan to go back and call his family, who came to help them make and can the toothpaste.
With everyone's help, we managed to make several hundred jars of food in the afternoon, so there should be no problem in getting enough for tomorrow.
In order to reward everyone, Zheng Yuan returned home early and prepared a sumptuous meal. He called Grandpa Chen and his family, and everyone had a delicious meal together.
Upon learning at the dinner table that their business was so booming, Mrs. Chen and her family were happy for them and told them to call them if they needed anything.
After dinner, they saw off Old Lady Chen and her family, prepared the ice jelly for tomorrow, and then the family packed up and went to bed.
Tomorrow is the market in Zhonghe Town, and the children have to go there, while they will take toothbrushes and toothpaste to Yongding County.
Although they had many dreams that night, both of them slept very comfortably.
Because in the dream, the two of them lived in a castle built of gold, the bed was made of silver, and the mattress was made of money.
The two would be happy even if they had this beautiful dream every night.
After getting up and packing, the family separated at the door of the house. One group stayed at home, one group went to Zhonghe Town, and another group went to Yongding County.
Zheng Yuan, Duan Minmin and Aji packed up their things and got on the carriage to go to the city.
Before I reached the store door, I saw a lot of people gathered at the door.
Three waiters brought out stools and asked everyone to sit down, and kept explaining that the goods had not arrived yet. When I heard the sound of the carriage, I looked up and saw the three people, and then I breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that these people didn't buy it yesterday, so they came early today to buy it.
When they saw them coming, they all gathered around and asked if the toothbrushes and toothpaste had arrived.
"Everyone, don't worry. There is plenty of stock today. Once we move everything in and sort it out, you can come into the store and buy what you need."
There were really too many people, and the two were afraid that if they didn't say anything, everyone would rush over and cause trouble.
Three guys hurried forward and moved the things in. They quickly tidied up and then opened the door to welcome the guests.
As soon as the door opened, everyone squeezed in and started buying things frantically, fearing that they would not be able to buy them if they were too late.
It was the same division of labor as yesterday, Zheng Yuan and the other waiters greeted the guests, while Duan Minmin and Aji collected the money.
After working for about an hour, the number of people gradually decreased and there were not many things left in the store.
Looking at the shelves that were mostly empty, Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin were a little dazed. They really didn't expect that the market would be so popular today.
Today I brought a thousand toothbrushes and two hundred cans of toothpaste, but now it seems that there are only about two hundred toothbrushes and more than fifty cans of toothpaste left.
Moreover, customers are still coming in one after another at this moment. I think all will be sold out in no time today.
Yongding County is not the largest county in Kunzhou. If the business here is so booming, then the business in Kunzhou Prefecture and other counties should not be bad either.
Then the supply of goods becomes a problem. If the business is booming, the managers in various places and Jiang Chengye should start sending people to pick up the goods on the same day.
Even the farthest places can be reached in about three days, so they have to prepare a batch of goods by the day after tomorrow at the latest.
The raw materials at home are enough to prepare the goods this time, but if we want to continue production in the future, we will need to prepare some more raw materials.
Previously, all matters were handled by Mr. Jiang, but now the two of them were a little confused.
"Aji, do you know where the raw materials were purchased? I'm afraid we need to prepare the same amount now, just in case."
"Aunt, I know it. I was the one who carried the previous batch of goods."
"That's fine. You should prepare another batch according to the original quantity and send it to Lao Huaiqing. As for the other jar, do you know where your master ordered it?"
"I know." Aji nodded.
"That's good. We need to prepare another 10,000 jars. But the jars can't all be green. We need to prepare 4,000 white jars, 2,000 green jars, 2,000 pink jars, and 2,000 ginger jars."
The basic model has been launched now and the effect is pretty good. Next we have to prepare for the upgraded model.
It was a wise decision for Jiang Chengye not to take Aji with him when he left, otherwise they really wouldn’t know what to do now.
"Aunt, is there anything else that needs to be done?" Aji wrote down the two people's instructions one by one, then looked up and asked.
Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin lowered their heads and thought for a while.
"By the way, Aji, after you arrange these things, please find a blacksmith shop and make a few iron stamps with your Jiangji logo. In the future, the toothbrushes we produce will also be printed with the Jiangji mark. I think counterfeits will soon appear on the market. We have to promote our brand and also do a good job of anti-counterfeiting."
I was too busy in the past two days and completely forgot about the brand on the toothbrush. Now that the opening day has passed, these things need to be improved one by one.
"I understand, auntie." Aji nodded.
Before, the Jiang family father and son had never avoided him when making decisions, and even arranged for him to do many things. He naturally knew Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin's ideas, and he was very convinced of them.
