275, sale of soap

After leaving the Magician's Guild, Khadgar did not take a carriage, but walked to the "Golden Legend" luxury store.
The Magic Guild is at the intersection of York Street and Pericles Street, very close to luxury stores.
Only 3 minutes later, Khadgar arrived at the door of the luxury store.

A few days ago, Luo Dian promoted soap and soap in the city. Almost all the nobles in Jon City knew that soap and soap would be on sale today.
Moreover, the "Golden Legend" luxury goods store has a very good reputation. The spirits, perfumes, shoes from the Kingdom of God and romance novels sold are all rare and rare items in the outside world.
So at nine o'clock in the morning, the front of the store was already crowded with people.
Some of these people are here to see the fun, others are also jujube trees...wrong, some are also here to see the fun.
Everyone is noisily discussing what good things the "soaps and soaps" on sale today are. According to the promotion, they are products for washing face and washing clothes, but everyone has no idea about such products. They have to see them with their own eyes.
Khadgar ignored the onlookers and entered the luxury store through the back door.
...
In the luxury store, Caviz Rodian was giving instructions to the clerk and some temporary workers, making final preparations for the upcoming opening of the business.
Sean, the former leader of the Silver Hourglass Mercenary Group, stood behind Luo Dian, looking at the ceiling in boredom.
Seeing Khadgar come in, Luo Dian hurriedly greeted Khadgar:
"Good morning, Lord Khadgar! We will open for business in another hour!"
Luodian can deal with Anduin and Windsor with a normal attitude (mainly because he didn't know them in his previous life), but he is very awe of Khadgar.
After all, Khadgar is a member of the six-person Council of Dalaran Kirin Tor, with a status equivalent to the Lord of Dalaran City, while Luo Dian is an ordinary businessman in the sewers of Dalaran. The more he sees him, the more he naturally becomes more afraid.
"It's okay, you are busy with your business, don't worry about me." After Khadgar finished speaking, he was about to go to the study room on the third floor to read.
The third floor of the luxury store has been transformed by Khadgar into a study and reception room. Important customers will discuss business here. If there are no customers, Khadgar often likes to read here and spend the entire afternoon.
But Khadgar noticed that there were many basins placed in the hall on the first floor, and each basin was filled with clean water. He couldn't help but asked curiously:
"Luo Dian, you don't want customers to use soap directly here, do you? I saw it when I came here just now. There are many people gathering outside now, and there is definitely not enough space in our store."
Khadgar pointed to the door as he spoke.
"Of course not, Lord Khadgar." Luo Dian said with a smile:
"I asked the clerk to cut ordinary soap into 10 small pieces. After the opening, I will give these small pieces to customers for free so that they can take them home and try them. As for these basins, they are all prepared for nobles and bronzes.
For practitioners above the level.”
"So that's it." Khadgar nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, keep working!"
After Khadgar finished speaking, he walked up the stairs and prepared to go to the study room on the third floor. But at this time, Luo Dian stopped Khadgar:
"Lord Khadgar! I have something to ask of you!"
"What are you talking about?" Khadgar turned back and looked at Luo Dian.
"Miss Jessica Hehe will come to the store later, can you help me receive her?" Luo Dian scratched his head and asked.
Since "Vivian's death", Jessica's personality has changed drastically, and Luo Dian is afraid that he will not be able to cope with this young lady.
"Okay, I'll come down when Jessica arrives."
Khadgar nodded gently and went to the study on the third floor.
Luo Dian didn't dare to say anything and continued the preparations before opening.
...
At ten o'clock in the morning, the store opens for business as usual.
When the store opened, the onlookers outside the store immediately wanted to rush in to see what the new products looked like.
But Luo Dian had already expected it. He stood at the door of the store and said loudly to the onlookers outside the store as Sean's fighting spirit spread:
"Because the space in the store is limited, you don't have to squeeze into the store. I will give you a free trial version of the soap, and you can take it back and try it out."
After Luo Dian finished speaking, he winked at the shop assistants. The shop assistants and a dozen temporary workers filed out, handing out soap samples in their hands to the onlookers outside the shop.
At the same time, the store clerk also told the onlookers outside the store how to use the soap to prevent anyone from eating it as food.
The onlookers outside the store stopped crowding into the store when they saw the trial products being distributed, and their favorable impression of the "Golden Legend" store also rose to a higher level.
A customer asked loudly after receiving the trial product:
"Boss Luo Dian, how much does your soap cost? It's not like perfume, which costs 40 gold coins a piece, right?"
"Of course not." Luo Dian shook his head: "A normal piece of soap is ten times the size of the trial product... It's about that big."
Luo Dian was afraid that the customers present had no idea about ten times, so he raised the soap in his hand high and showed it to all the customers.
At the same time, Luo Dian also said: "The price of soap is very cheap, only 1 silver coin a piece, and ordinary residents can afford it! The price of soap is not expensive, 5 silver coins a piece. However, the inventory of soap is not much, so it can only be supplied to the nobles first.
Businessmen, bronze-level cultivators and other high-status figures, ordinary residents are not allowed to buy it for the time being!"
This price was set by Sean and Luo Dian after careful consideration.
The cost of soap is very low, only about 1.3 copper coins per piece, mainly due to shipping costs.
But Sean couldn't put the soap industry in the city of Yohn, as the freight problem couldn't be solved.
Sean wanted to spread the sales of soap quickly, so he set the price of soap at 1 silver coin first, and then gradually lowered it to 5 copper coins, so that ordinary city residents could also use soap.
Of course, if the price of soap is set very high like perfume, for example, one gold coin can make money. After all, it is a monopoly product, and there will always be nobles who are not short of money who will pay for Sean.
But Sean still chose this small profit but quick turnover model to sell soap.
The reason is that if ordinary urban residents can use soap, the demand for soap will be very high, so that the territory can hire more people and provide them with jobs and wages, which is a good thing in the long run.
...
But after hearing Luo Dian's words, the customers outside the store opened their eyes in disbelief, and the onlookers had already exclaimed:
"Isn't it?! It's so cheap?"
"Boss Luo Dian, didn't you say 'gold coins' instead of 'silver coins'?"
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go in and buy it. If you don't buy it at such a low price, it will be snatched up by others in a short time!"
