Lin Mai knew very well that his chestnuts did not have any special qualities, and they sold well before because of his exclusive operation.
Now that there is competition among peers, and they also deliberately lower their prices to compete with her for business, I am afraid that business will not be good today.
Although doing business can play with people's hearts, it requires conditions.
For example, the same portion of Dongpo Pork is sold at a low price in an ordinary small restaurant.
But if you put it in a high-end restaurant, plus the presentation and service, it's another price.
But now she is no different from the old scheming bitch's stall, even the chestnuts are no different, and the tricks of playing with people's hearts are not very effective.
Lin Mai was ready to close the stall at any time, but he still had to work with the old scheming bitch's family.
Whenever a customer goes to the old scheming bitch's house to buy chestnuts, she immediately shouts: "Three cents a pound for chestnuts, fifteen cents for half a pound!"
The old scheming bitch was so angry that she was about to burst into pieces when she heard this, but it was hard to blame Lin Mai for even a second since her family started the price war first.
Seeing many customers walking towards Lin Mai's stall, she became even more angry.
Even if she couldn't make any money today, she couldn't let Lin Mai do business, so she just beat her to the point of shutting down the stall. Their family could still make a lot of money if they sold it for 40 cents.
So he yelled at the top of his lungs: "Chestnuts cost two cents per catty, one cent and half a catty, everyone, come and buy them."
Immediately, customers all flocked to her two stalls, and the business in front of Lin Mai's stall was deserted.
Fang Zhuoran worked an all-night shift yesterday and had a day off today, so she came over to buy a few kilograms of whole-wheat chestnuts and take care of her business. By the way, she asked Mrs. Pang if she had any skin care products.
There was not a single customer in her stall, but the two stalls next to her were doing very well.
He walked over and asked in confusion: "Why is your business so bad?"
Lin Mai looked up and saw him, smiled and thanked him for the skin care products.
Fang Zhuoran carefully looked at the mother and daughter's skin, and it seemed that it was a little better than last time.
Waving his hand: "It's a small thing, thank you."
I asked her again why her business was so bad.
Lin Mai told him the whole story, and then packed a few bags of chestnuts for him: "Anyway, these chestnuts can't be sold today, so you can help me eat a few kilograms to avoid wasting things."
Fang Zhuoran took it with a smile, said thank you and left.
However, before leaving, I turned around and took a cold look at the two chestnut stalls of the old scheming bitch.
He went straight to Puji Medical University and gathered his students.
Ask them to do you a favor and take some time today to invite friends and go to Lin Mai’s stall to buy chestnuts, which cost 40 cents a pound.
He also said that the money for buying chestnuts can be reimbursed from him.
Some students curiously asked: "Professor Fang, why do you have to pay 40 cents a pound to buy it?"
Fang Zhuoran told the students the reason why someone maliciously robbed Lin Mai's business.
Several boys winked and asked, "Professor Fang, is that stall owner a girl?"
"What are you thinking?" Fang Zhuoran said calmly: "Although she is a girl, she is still a married girl. It is not easy to set up a stall with a child, so I want to help her."
The students were a little disappointed, thinking that the person they wanted to help was the future teacher's wife, but it turned out not to be the case.
However, if they can help a disadvantaged person, these passionate young people in the second grade are still very willing to do so.
"Why don't we just spend 40 cents to buy a pound of chestnuts? We have to ask Professor Fang for reimbursement! Are we only allowed to help the disadvantaged while Professor Fang is not allowed to do some good deeds?"
The students spread the word to others and ran in groups to buy Linmai's chestnuts.
Lin Mai was already preparing to close the stall and go home, when suddenly a large group of young people came to buy her chestnuts.
Although she was a little surprised, she would not push out the business if it came to her, so she stopped closing the stall and continued doing business.
The old scheming bitch next door saw it and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Fragrant wild chestnuts, two cents a pound, don't miss it if you pass by!"
Seeing that the group of young people were unmoved, he ran to pull them away: "Don't buy her chestnuts. Her chestnuts cost 40 cents per catty. They are so expensive. Ours only costs 20 cents per catty."
Deliberately and maliciously lowering prices is already too much, but coming across the border to lure customers from her home is even more outrageous.
What is intolerable is unbearable.
Lin Mai didn't even care about frying chestnuts. He threw down the spatula and pushed the old scheming bitch: "I'm old enough to be a shameless person, but I actually went to someone else's stall to pick someone up!"
The sons and daughters-in-law of the old scheming bitch threw away the spatulas, gathered around, and said arrogantly: "Why don't you just run to your stall and pick people up? It's like you can do anything to us!"
The group of students were all very angry when they saw the old scheming bitch's family bullying Lin Mai due to their large number of people.
A group of boys swarmed up and pushed the old scheming bitch's family away. They said indignantly: "What? You want to bully others because of the number of people? I want to see if it's your family that's more, or ours!"
The old scheming bitch family was all dumbfounded. They never expected that these young people would protect Lin Mai.
Many girls deliberately shouted: "What's wrong with my sister's chestnuts being so expensive? You get what you pay for, my chestnuts are delicious!"
Not to mention selling your chestnuts for 2 cents per catty, even if they cost 2 cents per catty, I wouldn’t dare to buy them, for fear that I would become as bad-hearted as you after eating them!”
The old scheming bitch's family was furious.
Students from Puji Medical University rushed to buy them, and all the chestnuts from Duolinmai were sold out at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The old scheming bitch’s chestnuts are still at least 80% unsold.
Although his chestnuts are sold cheaply, only two cents a pound.
But when I couldn't stand a single customer, I was surrounded by a group of students and asked to leave, so I basically didn't sell much.
The old scheming bitch's family was so angry that they couldn't do anything about it. The number of students was too large and they didn't dare to touch anyone's hair.
As a reborn person, it is impossible to be a fool, not to mention that Lin Mai was a big boss in the catering industry in Hu Province in his previous life, so his IQ is even more online.
When those students accidentally mentioned that they were students at Puji Medical University, Lin Mai could not guess that Fang Zhuoran was helping her behind the scenes.
But when doing business, you can't wait for others to help you every day. This is simply unrealistic.
Besides, she's not the kind of person who likes to rely on others for help.
With the old scheming bitch family here, there is no way to do business here anymore, so Lin Mai is ready to move.
She had spent most of her life in Jiangcheng in her previous life, and knew very well where business was good in Jiangcheng.
Many people mistakenly believe that business is easy to do near the train station and that there is a large flow of people.
In fact, the business near the train station is not the best in Jiangcheng in this era.
The best business is concentrated near several large shopping malls and at the Hankou Ferry at the Yue-Han Pier, not even at the Wuchang Ferry opposite.
Although Wuchang had a good economy at that time, people in Wuchang liked to come to Hankou for shopping.
Because almost all of Jiangcheng’s large shopping malls are concentrated in Hankou.
After the Xudong Commercial District and Optics Valley Commercial District were later formed in Wuchang, fewer people came to Hankou for shopping.
Lin Mai planned to sell chestnuts at the Hankou Ferry at the Guangdong-Hankou Wharf. The business there was definitely no worse than the business near the train station.
