Seeing that there are only a few days left until the Chinese New Year, there are still some New Year’s goods at home that have not been purchased.
After the Chinese New Year, Fuduoduo Market, a vegetable market from Jiangcheng to Beijing, began to sell New Year’s goods, and the varieties are said to be very complete.
But Lin Mai has never seen it, and now he is taking advantage of the opportunity to buy new year's goods.
The whole family, except Fang Zhuoran, was all riding in a Mercedes-Benz, following Lin Mai to the Fuduoduo market to buy new year's goods.
I saw several large pots placed on both sides of the entrance to Fuduoduo Market.
Several middle-aged male chefs wearing Fuduoduo work clothes, with big shoulders and round waists, are working hard to fry fried seeds.
There are fried watermelon seeds, fried pumpkin seeds, and fried sunflower seeds, hazelnuts and peanuts...There are no less than ten kinds of roasted seeds and nuts.
The air is filled with the aroma of various roasted seeds and nuts.
As soon as everyone started running, Dou Dou pointed at the pot of fried peanuts and said she wanted to eat fried peanuts.
The peanuts are indeed very fragrant after being fried. Not only Doudou wants to eat them, even adults like Lin Mai want to have a handful after smelling them.
However, there is a long queue of customers standing in front of the fried peanut stall, so you can't buy it immediately if you want to eat it.
Lin Mai gave Doudou money and asked Doudou to line up to buy peanuts, at least twenty kilograms.
Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang have many acquaintances, comrades, and subordinates in the capital. Lin Mai is worried that there will be more guests coming to pay New Year's greetings this year.
So I have to prepare a lot of various New Year’s goods, and I don’t know if 20 pounds of fried peanuts will be enough.
Lin Mai told Doudou that after buying the fried peanuts, he stood next to the uncle who was frying the peanuts, waiting for them to pick him up.
Doudou is already in elementary school, and it’s time to cultivate her independence.
Doudou nodded excitedly, took the money given by Lin Mai, and went to queue up at the fried peanut stall.
Lin Mai grabbed her and asked, "What should I do if I meet a bad guy?"
Doudou said: "I'm just going to shout loudly, and I'm going to yell at the peanut fryer, saying that I am Mr. Lin's daughter."
"Just say that Tang Yi is your uncle, and he will definitely save you."
Doudou asked in confusion: "Why?"
Grandma Fang touched her little head: "It's better for the county magistrate to take charge now.
Uncle Tang Yi is the manager of this Fuduoduo market. If you say she is his niece, the uncle who fry the peanuts will respond more quickly."
"Got it!" Doudou nodded understandingly and queued up to buy peanuts.
Only then did Lin Mai and his party enter Fuduoduo Market.
It's almost the Chinese New Year, and people shopping for new year's goods are crowded together, and every counter is crowded with people.
Zhao Liang and Tang Yi were running around inspecting the company. If the employees were too busy, they would take action. No one acted like a superior leader.
Zhao Liang accidentally saw Lin Mai, ran over and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin brought his grandparents here to buy new year's goods.
Why buy New Year's goods by yourself and suffer so much from squeezing around?
If Mr. Lin wants any New Year's goods, just write a note and send them over, and I can deliver the New Year's goods to your door early tomorrow morning."
Grandma Fang smiled kindly: "It feels like celebrating the New Year only when we buy the New Year's goods ourselves.
If you can't buy the new year's goods, you can deliver them to your door."
Zhao Liang said hello.
Lin Mai looked at the prosperous scene in front of him and said, "Business is good."
"That's right." Zhao Liang was a little proud, "Our greenhouse vegetables are cheaper than Huimin's. This advantage can attract a lot of their customers.
When these customers come, they can not only buy greenhouse vegetables, but also buy other agricultural products when they see them.
Today, our sales of beef, mutton, chicken, etc. have doubled.
Not to mention eggs, we are constantly replenishing them.”
He chuckled and said, "Mr. Lin still has more ideas. He brought cheap greenhouse vegetables from Hu Province and sold them at low prices, which was half the business of the crowded Huimin Market."
Lin Mai pursed his lips and smiled evilly: "I have a way to make the business of Huimin Market even more deserted."
Zhao Liang urged with gleaming eyes: "What can I do, Mr. Lin, tell me quickly!"
Lin Mai asked Aunt Tu to accompany Grandpa Fang and his wife to buy new year goods. She and Zhao Liang went to Tang Yi's office to discuss ways to squeeze out the Huimin Market.
As soon as Lin Mai sat down, he asked Zhao Liang how many kinds of agricultural products he had purchased at low prices.
Fuduoduo Food Market has been operating for several years and has already established a complete purchasing system.
They have locally developed salespeople like Tana's mom all over the country.
As long as there are unsalable agricultural products, the local salesmen will notify Fodorduo's business manager after learning about it.
After the sales manager inspects the agricultural products and finds that there is no problem with the quality, he will purchase them in large quantities at low prices.
Although the price is low, it will still ensure that farmers make some money, and they cannot let their hard work for a year go in vain.
This is the principle of purchasing agricultural products at Fuduoduo Market.
In short, strive for a win-win situation.
Not only can low-price agricultural products be purchased at Fuduoduo Market, farmers' unsalable agricultural products can also find a way out.
In the 1980s, information was limited.
If Fuduoduo had not developed local salespeople across the country, it would not be so well-informed, let alone buy low-price agricultural products.
With this alone, Huimin Food Market cannot compete with Fuduoduo Food Market.
But if someone insists on seeking death and robbing their greenhouse vegetables, then Linmai will definitely get what he wants.
Zhao Liang poured her a cup of hot tea and said: "Guangxi had a big sugar cane harvest last year. Brown sugar, white sugar and rock sugar are very cheap, and I bought a lot.
Apples from Yantai, green onions from Shandong, pears from Shaanxi, and sweet potatoes from Henan are also very cheap.
It’s just that sweet potatoes cannot be stored well, and there are not many people buying sweet potatoes for the New Year, so I don’t dare to buy more.”
Lin Mai pondered for a moment and said: "We should try to buy as much sweet potatoes as possible from Henan. Many elderly people with bad teeth like to cook sweet potato porridge or steam it directly.
We bring them back and sell them at a low price. Although sweet potatoes are not a new year product, they are cheap for three. As long as the price is low, there should be many people buying them.
It can not only help Henan farmers, but also attract some middle-aged and elderly customers."
Zhao Liang nodded: "Then I'll ship a batch back in bulk and try it out."
Lin Mai nodded and explained that the agricultural products he just mentioned purchased at low prices can also be discounted by a few cents.
Zhao Liang touched his nose: "There's no need to give up on those brown sugar, white sugar, rock sugar, apples, pears and green onions. These are all in demand during the New Year."
During the Chinese New Year, who wouldn’t buy a few bags of brown sugar and white sugar to visit relatives and friends?
When relatives and friends come, always stew some rock sugar and white fungus to entertain the guests.
People in the capital also love to eat green onions.
Stir-fried beef with green onions, stir-fried mutton with green onions, stir-fried pork with green onions, green onion dumplings, green onion steamed buns...all use green onions.
As for apples and pears, they are perfect gifts.
There is no need to worry about selling these agricultural products.
Lin Mai held the tea cup and asked: "You don't want to press Huimin Market to death?"
"Think about it."
"If you want, just do as I say. It's not just brown sugar and white sugar that make profits.
In addition to pork, poultry and eggs, beef and mutton also have to be sold at a profit, but it only costs a dime."
The reason for not giving away profits from pork and poultry eggs was because Lin Mai was worried that the pork and poultry eggs purchased by Huimin Market were almost the same as their purchase price, so he could start a price war with them.
If it had not been forced into desperation, Linmai would never have entered into a price war.
Once a price war breaks out, prices will only drop again and again, and there will be no hope of making money.
But Lin Mai is confident that the purchase price of beef and mutton at Huimin Market cannot be lower than theirs.
Their beef and mutton are purchased by Tana Mama at the place of origin, without middlemen.
It will be difficult for Huimin Food Market to achieve this in the short term, and it will give Huimin Food Market a heavy blow.
As for the beef and mutton, why is there only a dime profit?
Because if you give even a dime of profit, many people will buy it.
During Chinese New Year, who only buys one pound of beef and mutton?
You should buy at least three to five kilograms. Isn’t this three to five cents cheaper?
Zhao Liang had already reacted at this time and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll do what Mr. Lin said.
With our promotion like this, I don’t know if Huimin Market can survive the first month of the year, haha!”
The two finished talking about work and walked out of the office together.
Grandpa Fang, Grandma Fang and Aunt Tu haven't finished shopping for new year's goods, so Lin Mai continues to do it with them.
Lin Mai didn't stop until Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang got a little tired.
He wrote down the New Year's goods that he hadn't had time to buy on a note and gave them to Tang Yi, asking him to deliver them to his door.
A group of people walked out of the market and put the New Year's goods into the Mercedes-Benz.
Lin Mai went to the fried peanut stall to pick up Doudou.
Doudou had been eating fried peanuts for a long time. He had stopped eating peanuts long ago while sitting on a snakeskin bag containing twenty kilograms of peanuts.
When he saw Lin Mai, he cried out that he was thirsty.
Lin Mai took her to a tea stall to buy a cup of hot tea and drink it.
Boss Doudou was not happy. She originally wanted to drink a bottle of soda.
In such a cold weather, Lin Mai didn't dare to give her soda. If she got cold, she would be in trouble.
She is not an ordinary child, she has a heart disease.
Even though he had surgery and was no different from ordinary children, he still had to try to avoid catching colds.
Fortunately, Doudou was only a little willful, so she still listened to Lin Mai's reasoning with her.
By the time she got in the car, she was no longer angry.
Lin Mai started his Mercedes-Benz and suddenly saw a somewhat familiar figure entering the Fuduoduo market.
She was a little confused, why did that guy come to her Fuduoduo Market to shop?
