Chapter 206: 206 Money Can Do Whatever It Wants (Second Update)
Ye Fei and Tie Bao’s truck followed behind, while Ye Cheng drove the car ahead.
Xiaofeng sat in the passenger seat, with Keke and Chunli in the back.
"Doctor Ye." Ever since Chunli found out that Ye Cheng was a doctor, she immediately understood why Baozi had fainted that day.
Of course, it was also Baozi’s own fault. If he hadn’t tried to make the first move, why would anyone have fought back: "Where’s your hometown? You’re not from Xijiang County, right?"
Ye Cheng shook his head: "I’m not a local, I’m just settling down here with my grandfather."
"They are barefoot doctors. They stay wherever they treat people," Xiaofeng said with a smile.
Keke looked at Ye Cheng’s profile, her heartbeat inexplicably speeding up. A voice in her heart said, Doctor Ye is so handsome; where Doctor Ye is, all other men are just foils.
"Doctor Ye and his grandfather are really good people. I’ve heard that opening a clinic in the county town can make good money. With your medical skills being so good, why don’t you open a clinic in the town?"
"Afraid of having too many patients," Ye Cheng spoke seriously, "Both my grandfather and I are not diligent people. We’re the type who only wish to see a few patients every two or three days."
If it wasn’t for that, they wouldn’t have chosen to live in the countryside.
A twitch appeared on Chunli’s mouth, talk about being willful.
This was definitely the most willful pair of doctors she had ever seen.
Keke felt her teeth ache listening to this.
Xiaofeng glanced at Ye Cheng, thinking that this man really dared to say anything. Seeing a patient every two or three days, wasn’t this just the so-called wealthy caprice?
"What happened to the truck behind us, why did it stop on the road?" Chunli looked back and noticed the truck had pulled over.
"It couldn’t be that the car’s broken down, right? Let’s hope not," Keke said offhandedly.
Ye Cheng parked the car and walked towards the truck.
In the truck, Ye Fei was glaring at Tie Bao: "You happy now? The truck’s broken down."
Tie Bao looked like a child who had done something wrong: "You told me to pull the handbrake, so I pulled it."
"I told you to release the handbrake. When did I say to pull it? Can you even pull it while the vehicle is moving?" Ye Fei had never seen such a stupid student, who couldn’t understand even after half a day’s explanation: "Now, the truck won’t start. What should we do?"
Tie Bao hung his head. He had never encountered such a situation before; how would he know what to do? It wasn’t his truck, after all. He had said he didn’t want to go on the road, but it was Ye Fei who insisted he give it a try. Now that a problem had arisen, Ye Fei was blaming him.
"What happened to the truck?" Ye Cheng stood outside the truck, knocking on the window.
Instantly getting down from the truck, Ye Fei greeted him with a smile: "Don’t know if it’s an engine problem, but it won’t start."
"If the engine’s broken, why are you standing around? Fix it."
"That’s what I’m teaching him to do right now," Ye Fei glanced at Tie Bao inside the truck: "Baozi, come on down. I’ll teach you how to fix an engine."
Baozi: "..."
He had a feeling he was being treated overly kindly.
"What’s going on in the back? Why did you stop?" Xiaofeng looked back and asked Ye Cheng, who had returned to the car.
"They say the engine’s broken and they’re fixing it."
"Really broken?" Keke was somewhat surprised. "Do they know how to fix it? It’s not easy to find a mechanic around here."
In this day and age, there were already few cars, and even fewer places to repair them. You wouldn’t find one within a hundred miles.
"It shouldn’t be a big issue. They say it’ll be ready to go after a check-up," Ye Cheng was quite calm. If they couldn’t even solve a problem like this, there was no point in following him in the future.
Xiaofeng, listening to his tone, always felt that the matter couldn’t be simple, but she saw Ye Fei and Tie Bao had already gotten back into the truck.
If they were that quick, could it really be an engine problem? It didn’t seem likely.
The vehicle at the back started, so naturally, Ye Cheng’s car began to move as well.
Because there were many people, the journey felt short with everyone chatting and laughing along the way.
Since everything had already been agreed with Lida Department Store, and Manager Yao was a straightforward man, he didn’t give Su Xiaofeng a hard time. However, he wanted them to hold a promotional event, curious to see if Su Xiaofeng’s plan would work.
Charging placement fees to suppliers was a new concept he’d heard from the store, yet someone proposed it, and it intrigued him.
If the scheme worked, the store would welcome a very substantial income.
"Buy one, get one free?" Keke, hearing Xiaofeng’s words, was quite surprised, "Doesn’t that mean we won’t make any money?"
The profit margin on the chili sauce was not high to begin with, and with a buy-one-get-one-free deal, it’s clear there wouldn’t be much profit to be made.
"What we need now is a good reputation and repeat customers. With those, there’s no need to worry about future sales. As long as sales are good later, why worry about not making money?" Compared to spending a lot on advertising, promotional activities were more in line with what the public wanted.
"Our task today is to distribute posters outside. Go to nearby places where lots of people gather and make sure everyone knows about our buy-one-get-one-free event for Pear Blossom Brand chili sauce tomorrow," Xiaofeng explained. Such a promotion would be attractive even in the twenty-first century, let alone in this era. The reaction was still unknown.
Since it was the factory’s first event, everyone was very enthusiastic.
In less than a day, almost all the nearby people knew about the Pear Blossom Brand chili sauce buy-one-get-one-free event at Lida Department Store the next day.
The next morning, after eight o’clock, a good number of older ladies arrived, each with a promo flyer in hand: "Is this where the buy-one-get-one-free chili sauce promotion is happening?"
"Doesn’t look like anything special. Is it tasty or not? Even though it’s buy one, get one free, it’s still two dollars," Some peered at the pots of chili sauce, feeling it was pretty ordinary, something they could mix up at home.
"You can taste it here," Chunli said with a smile, offering some small spoons, "Everyone can try it. If you don’t like it, you don’t have to buy."
It was a willing seller and a willing buyer, right?
From a distance, Su Xiaofeng looked over and wanted to come closer.
Ye Cheng stopped her, "Don’t forget, you’re in charge. You should be strategizing behind the scenes right now. What are you doing going over there?"
Didn’t she see how crowded it was over there? What if someone accidentally bumped into her?
