Chapter 23 Why are the same melons not sweet?
Lin Tao was really surprised when the "Xiao Zhang Fruit Shop" opposite showed an advertisement for the same type of watermelon.
Since there are many people going to the "Fruit Man" store to buy watermelon every day, there is usually a queue, which takes about 5 to 10 minutes.
Unexpectedly, this made Zhang Dehua see business opportunities.
Advertising slogan: "Get it immediately, same style and quality".
It has to be said that Zhang Dehua is very business-savvy and adapts to the changing circumstances.
Make money, as long as it’s not an open robbery or shabby!
Not to mention, with Zhang Dehua's actions, many customers did come to the door and many inquired about prices.
"This 8424 watermelon is as sweet as the other one?"
"The appearance looks similar, but the price is more expensive than Fruit Man..."
"Forget it, don't wait in line here. It doesn't matter how much it costs. I'm in a hurry."
Zhang Dehua and his wife Wan Hong have been quiet for a few days, and finally got busy today.
Being busy means having business.
In one hour, more than 10 watermelons were sold. Although it cannot be compared with Lin Tao, there is finally some improvement.
"Did you see it? Let me tell you, this melon is definitely easy to sell!" Zhang Dehua said smugly.
But my wife Wan Hong always feels that something is wrong. She sells watermelons and uses Lin Tao's name. This is weird...
But Zhang Dehua couldn't help being happy and in high spirits, so he didn't think too much about it.
As the volume of watermelons increased, sales of other fruits in Zhang Dehua's store also increased.
After catching up with Lin Tao's "fame", Zhang Dehua became more certain of his vision the day before yesterday.
In the blink of an eye, it was noon. Due to the extremely hot weather, there were very few customers and business became sparse.
"Oh, your business today is not as good as yesterday!" Zhang Dehua took advantage of the gap and ran to Lin Tao's shop opposite.
I don’t know why, but it may be that Zhang Dehua’s watermelons really joined the competition. Lin Tao’s watermelon sales dropped slightly today.
"Where did you get this melon? If you sell melons, just sell melons. Don't use my banner!" Lin Tao warned.
Watermelons all look similar in appearance. If you sell watermelons, just sell them in a serious manner. Why bother using Lin Tao's name?
"What's wrong with the same style as the one opposite? There are so many shops across the way, did I tell you? Selling fruit is nothing more than changing hands. If you get good products, you don't have to worry about selling them. If you get bad ones, you will be unlucky." Zhang Dehua said eloquently.
.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the opposite side of "Xiao Zhang Fruit Shop" is the "Fruit Man" shop.
And there are only two fruit shops within a radius of 50 meters.
Isn’t this Zhang Dehua covering his ears?
Lin Tao thought about it and let it go. Instead of arguing with him, he might as well sell a few more watermelons if he had time to argue.
He is very confident in his watermelon. After loading the sweetness level through the system, this watermelon cannot be bought outside.
Therefore, Zhang Dehua's "same quality watermelon" is a kind of deception to customers.
"Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, come back quickly!" At this time, Wan Hong shouted anxiously from the opposite side.
After Zhang Dehua showed off in front of Lin Tao, his wife called him back to the shop.
"These are the two watermelons I just bought. They are raw inside, and these watermelons are not sweet at all!" A customer said angrily.
Watermelon is not sweet?
When Zhang Dehua heard this, his pupils immediately contracted and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Oh, this is an authentic 8424 watermelon. Maybe it doesn't grow well... It doesn't matter, I will give you two good watermelons." Zhang Dehua comforted.
Fruit after-sales problems occur almost every day, and Zhang Dehua is used to it.
So he personally picked two more watermelons and handed them to the customer.
"Can you cut it open for me? I'll see if it's okay." The customer suffered a loss once and asked Zhang Dehua to do the incision on the spot.
"Pfft!"
Zhang Dehua stabbed him, and he was alive again!
This time, his head is really big.
"Hey, Lao Zhang, there's something wrong with your watermelon..." An old aunt came over excitedly.
It’s really a wave of ups and downs!
"Your watermelon isn't sweet. The watermelon I bought across the street a few days ago was very sweet. You said it was the same style, so I bought yours, but it doesn't taste right," said the old aunt.
This is indeed grown from the same melon farmer as Lin Tao, so why does it taste different?
At this moment, Zhang Dehua was a little panicked.
"Your melon doesn't taste good, the meat is too old!"
"The sand melon is not comparable to the watermelon opposite."
"Boss, please return the goods and I'll return the watermelon to you..."
Good guy, in just half an hour, 8 customers came to return watermelons.
Most of these people had bought Lin Tao’s watermelon a few days ago, and by comparison, it was delicious.
Customers were very angry. They bought watermelons from the store because of Zhang Dehua's "same style" sign.
But when I bought it home and took a look, I found that it was not the same style at all. It was not sweet at all and the taste was very different.
"Believe me, this is just an isolated phenomenon..." Zhang Dehua has wiped the sweat with three towels.
He didn't believe in this evil either, so he cut open several large watermelons in front of everyone, but most of them were unsatisfactory.
"Forget it, I'll queue up opposite to buy watermelon, it's cheaper!"
"What are you doing Mingtang? Is this 8424 Watermelon? Why is there such a big gap with the other side?"
"Boss, stop looking away. After cutting all the watermelons here, you can't even find a good one!"
Customers unanimously demanded a refund from Zhang Dehua.
"Okay, okay, okay, okay, I'll retreat, I'll retreat..." Zhang Dehua almost had a heart attack.
He originally wanted to ride on the popularity of Lin Tao's watermelon to attract business.
Unexpectedly, this turned out to be the reason for everyone to quit melon. I really shot myself in the foot!
But this isn’t right. You obviously came from the same watermelon family as Lin Tao?
Could it be...
It's a melon farmer fraud!
Zhang Dehua was immediately furious and hurriedly dialed Chen Guanong's phone number.
"What the hell are you doing? I clearly want the same type of watermelon as the other person. What are you sending? They are all bad-tasting melons!" Zhang Dehua roared.
"This is the same batch of 8424 watermelons, right?" Chen Guanong was even more confused when he heard this.
Moreover, this batch of melons is also part of the remaining batch of melons sent to Lin Tao.
"Why is his watermelon sweet but not mine?" Zhang Dehua asked.
Chen Guanong finally heard that this Dehua was looking for trouble!

How can watermelon not be sweet?
It’s just a matter of how sweet it is.
Some people think watermelon is sweet enough, while some people think it's not sweet at all. Everyone's taste is different.
Moreover, it is difficult to have unified standards.
"Boss Zhang, what you said is wrong! You also inspected the goods on the spot, and the watermelons given to you were from live vines. Now you are saying that the watermelons are bad?" Chen Guonong said angrily.
These watermelons are all traded face to face, with one hand inspecting the goods and the other hand collecting the money.
Zhang Dehua also felt that it was a big deal. They might have to argue with each other about this matter, but he had bought a full 20,000 kilograms of watermelon!
"Then let's do this. If you take these watermelons back, I won't want them anymore." Zhang Dehua said.
When Chen Guanong heard this, he became even more angry!
Where can I return fresh fruits?
You watermelon is dead after tossing it over and over again, and it will be trash when you return it.
Chen Guanong felt that he had been scammed.
"You can refund it if you want. The shipping fee is 8,000 yuan. I'll find someone to get it back." Chen Guanong suppressed his anger and said.
"What, the freight is 8,000 yuan. Didn't you say 3,000 yuan last time?" Zhang Dehua said in surprise.
"It's the same as last time, and last time I transported several goods in one trip, and the freight cost was 3,000 yuan shared with you. This time it's different. I have a truck specifically to bring your watermelons." Chen Guonong said unyieldingly.
Of course, the shipping fee of 8,000 yuan is indeed high. In fact, this is also the threshold set by Chen Guanong for Zhang Dehua.
If the watermelon is returned, the melon farmer will definitely lose money, so it is better to make some money on the freight.
At this moment, Zhang Dehua felt like a mute eating Coptis chinensis, unable to express his pain.
If Zhang Dehua privately finds someone to return the melons, there is no need to pay 8,000 yuan for shipping, but does the other party, Chen Guonong, recognize the melons?
He can even say that the melon is wrong, but Zhang Dehua cannot get any advantage from both sides.
But the shipping fee of 8,000 yuan is too expensive. You have to lose 8,000 yuan for no reason?
It’s really a dilemma.
"Forget it, forget it, let's do it..." Zhang Dehua knew that this matter was unclear. Even if he paid 8,000 yuan for shipping, it was still unknown whether he could get a normal refund later.
