Transmigration: The Peasant Makeup Artist

On the morning of the temple fair, Li Mo and his party got up in the dark and set off to the neighboring village before the chickens crowed. As for the two children, they were hugged in the arms of the adults and fell asleep.

When they rushed to the house selling candied haws in the next village, the chickens had just crowed, and it was still dark, so the group of people sat in the ox cart and walked towards Fahua Mountain.

When we arrived at Fahua Mountain, it was just dawn. At this time, many stalls had already arrived. Everyone was looking for suitable stalls and then placed their own products.

Li Mo gave the family ten cents, and then hurried to find a good place, spread a piece of cloth brought from home on the ground, put the perfume neatly on the cloth, and then opened two boxes at the front The balm is shown to passers-by.

Meizi asked Li Mo at this time, "Sister-in-law, how do we sell this perfume?"

Li Mo thought about it for a while. Generally, the things sold at temple fairs are more expensive than usual. Usually, she costs five cents a box for this balm, so today she will have eight cents a box.

Meizi thinks that a box of eight cents is also very cheap. "Sister-in-law, the ones that I used to see in town, the least cost 15 cents a box, and each box is very small. We have so much money, so we only need A box of eight coins is too cheap."

Li Mo smiled, "I don’t compare prices with others. I just take a cheaper and more affordable route and sell them exclusively to those who can’t afford or are reluctant to buy balsam from powder shops. These people don’t like balsam, but they don’t. I am willing to buy it. If I sell it cheaply and in large quantities, these people will definitely be willing to buy it."

Meizi thinks about it and feels that her sister-in-law is right. If she saw such a big box of balm, as long as half of the outside price, she would definitely feel that she had encountered a good thing. Buy a box and keep it, or else not next time. I know if I can buy such a cheap one.

Thinking about this, Meizi suddenly admired her sister-in-law. Her sister-in-law is so good at business, so she has a brain.

On the way here, Li Mo had already thought about the division of labor later. Later, she was responsible for introducing recommendations to the guests. Meizi would pick up the goods and collect the money. Dashan watched things from the side to avoid being fished in troubled waters, and the two children did it today. Leave it to Tiezi to take care of.

Several people nodded one after another and had no opinion on this arrangement.

Not long after, the sky was completely bright. At this time, the people who came to the temple fair one after another had already arrived. Some people wanted to go to the mountain as early as possible, so they walked quickly, not paying attention to the stalls along the way, and some people I just want to visit the temple fair, so I don't rush up the mountain, but walk and stroll, and stop and take a look at the ones I'm interested in.

The vendors started yelling at this time, and the whole air was lively for a while.

Meizi yelled at the vendors around him, and was anxious. He glanced at Li Mo, "Sister-in-law, everyone is yelling. If we don't yell, they won't come over, let's yell too."

Li Mo thought for a while, yes, everyone shouted, and it was weird for them to stand still, so they also learned from the vendors to shout, "It sells balsam, cheap and affordable balsam, as long as eight characters are needed. A box of money!"

Seeing her sister-in-law yell, Meizi also yelled from behind.

Not to mention, this yell really attracted many people. When I heard about the balm, people still wondered how expensive the balm today is. I didn’t want to follow along and heard that there was only eight cents per box, although Eight cents of money is not a small amount of money to ordinary people, but compared with those balsams with dozens of cents at every turn, this eight cents is too small, so people who heard it came interested and went to Li. Mo here.

The first one to come to the booth was a pair of mother and daughter. The mother was in her thirties and her daughter was in her teens. Here is an age to marry. The mother and daughter came to the front and looked at the balm. I was surprised when I saw the amount, and couldn't help but asked in confirmation: "Is this balm really only cost eight cents?"

Li Mo smiled and nodded, "Eldest sister, I only need a box of eight yuan for my perfume."

The woman was hesitant to start. Could it be that there is something wrong with this balm, otherwise why is it so cheap?

Seeing the woman's hesitation, Li Mo took a step forward, picked up the opened box of rose fragrance ointment, and said, "Sister, this is made by my secret recipe. The quality is first-class, me. It means selling cheaply and making more money from selling. If you are not assured, you can give it a try first. Come on, eldest sister, pass me your wrist and I will give you a try."

The woman can try it at first sight. She stretched out her wrist quickly. Li Mo made a little with her finger and gently wiped it on the woman’s wrist. "Sister, you can smell it, and you can also let the people around you smell it. Smell, see if it smells good."

The woman immediately put her hand in front of her nose, and as expected, an elegant scent passed into her nose. The scent was very pleasant and made people smell comfortable.

The woman's daughter also smelled it, her eyes lit up immediately, "Mother, I don't need to get close to you to smell it, your whole body is fragrant."

Li Mo added in due course, "Sister, this scent is not for a while, it can be scented for one day, my balm, as long as I put it on my wrist or neck just a little bit, it can be scented for one day. , Such a box, even if you wipe a little every day, it can last for three months. I only sell eight cents for such a box. There is nothing more cost-effective than this. I only sell it here for three days. I won’t sell it here."

When this elder sister heard this, her heart that had been moved was completely lost, and she immediately took out eight dollars to buy a box.

Li Mo turned around and asked Meizi to take a box for the woman and accept the eight cents.

When Li Mo was talking, there were a lot of people watching. Everyone heard what Li Mo said just now. The scent on the woman was also smelled by the people around. Now, many people are also coming up to buy it. A box.

Li Mo immediately said to the people around him: "My balm has two flavors, one is rose fragrance and the other is chrysanthemum fragrance. The eldest sister just used rose fragrance on her body. You can smell the fragrance. Who would think Try this chrysanthemum scent? I can give you a try for free, and then you can choose your favorite flavor to buy."

As soon as this statement came out, all the young women around wanted to give it a try, and they came forward to try it.

Li Mo was not too crowded, and put some perfume on the women who were going to try one by one.

After wiping, the people who tried it were very satisfied with the scent, and they paid out to buy it. Some liked the taste of rose flowers and bought rose flavor, and some liked chrysanthemum flavor, so they bought a box of chrysanthemum flavor, some I like both, so I bought a box with money.

Probably it is rare to encounter such a temple fair, and probably because the atmosphere of the temple fair affects people. Those who come today are willing to spend money to buy something for their family members. Therefore, people who buy balsam are in an endless stream.

Meizi has been collecting money and delivering balm. Song Dashan immediately took it out of the basket when the stall was gone and refilled it, while Li Mo had been introducing and trying it out with people who came to inquire. Busy became a top.

At 10 noon, the stalls gradually disappeared and people were hungry. Either find a place to eat their own dry food or go to the food stalls to eat something. This is the time when the food stalls are busiest. Mo and others can take a breath.

Song Dashan took out the water he had brought from the basket. Several people drank saliva to relieve the dry mouth. After a busy morning, the mouth was really dry, and even the stomach was hungry.

The two little guys were hungry a long time ago. Li Mo took the money and asked Tiezi to take them to buy some food. The two of them were very happy to eat. The four adults were busy and have been empty stomachs till now.

Li Mo asked Meizi to watch the stall. She went to the food stall and bought a few meat pie and a few meat buns. One person, two meat pie and two meat buns, squatted in front of the stall and ate, and drank. Just a little water, the stomach is filled, and the whole person feels comfortable.

After eating, there were no customers in the stall for a while. Li Mo asked everyone to sit on the spread cloth and rest their legs. After standing all morning, their legs were too tired.

Although very tired, everyone was very happy. Unexpectedly, the business would be so good today. The buyer never stopped. Meizi was even more sore in collecting money. Song Dashan also added goods to the stall several times.

At this time Meizi couldn't help asking Li Mo, "Sister-in-law, we don't know how many boxes of balm were sold this morning, let's count."

Li Mo also wanted to know how much he had sold this morning, so he took the basket and put it on the booth to count how much was left.

After counting, there are still forty-eight boxes of balm left. They brought a hundred boxes of balm today, which means they sold fifty-two boxes this morning. Excluding the two trial boxes, they sold exactly 50 boxes. box.

Several people had sold fifty boxes in the morning, and their mouths couldn't help but cocked in excitement.

Li Mo did not expect to sell 50 boxes in just one morning, and there will be two and a half days in the next, and there will be more than 110 boxes left at home. If we sell at this rate, the inventory at home should be insufficient. .

"Brother Dashan, there are only more than one hundred and ten boxes left in the house. It should not be enough to sell next. We have to find a way to do more."

Song Dashan was also a little worried, "When I ordered the box before, just in case, I told Old Uncle Zhang to let him do it in the next few days. We need to do as much as we need. That’s the flower. We don’t have much time. Go pick flowers and do it."

Li Mo thought about it, looked at the remaining balm, and made up his mind: "There is not much balm left today. We will try to sell these early in the afternoon, and then discuss with the family and borrow theirs. The ox cart goes back in advance, and then takes advantage of the daylight to pick some flowers, and rushes to make the balm at night, just to work hard, brother Dashan, and then return the other people’s ox cart and follow them home. go with."

When Song Dashan heard that, he could only do this, and immediately nodded, "Then do it, try to sell out the ointment as soon as possible in the afternoon, and then go back and make more. Uncle Zhang should have a newly made box. I'll fetch it when I go back, and use as much as possible."

That's all. A few people yelled harder in the afternoon. They sold the rest a little more than an hour. When other vendors were still selling, they packed up their things and got in the bullock carts they had negotiated and borrowed. Hurry to the house.
