Chapter-65: respect is earned but cannot be bought
They would be sorry for not grabbing such a good thing. It's a rare item, it's on sale, and there are gifts. How many people can withstand such an onslaught?
"I don't have that much money, Brother Cooper let's pool our money together to buy it. For every twenty soaps and one free soap is given. If you don't take advantage of this, you'd be a fool."
"That's a good idea. Let's do it. Give us twenty soaps too." Whether it is soap or perfumed soap, people are snapping up it. People tend to follow the crowd. Once someone starts to grab goods, others will follow suit.
Even the small peddlers and the few merchants in the town who set up stalls come to grab the goods. They bought a lot and planned to stockpile and sell them slowly. The news spread quickly, from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred, and from a hundred to a thousand.
People from a hundred miles around rushed to buy the goods after hearing the news. Lord Jeff and the officials were responsible for selling the goods, while Wendy Lark was responsible for collecting the money.
She was nimble and quick with her mental arithmetic, and she could do the work of several people alone. Everyone was busy as hell, but they were all very happy.
Before noon, the goods were almost sold out, so Wendy Lark quickly arranged for someone to go back and pick up the goods. "Bring all the finished products here, hurry up."
"Okay." The officer ran very fast. He had to make more because there was not enough to sell. Mr. Jeff wiped the sweat off his face, his eyes full of smiles, he has made a fortune!
He couldn't help but look at the girl who was in high spirits, and a feeling of respect welled up in his heart. She was so capable and possessed such magical skills. They took turns eating a few buns for lunch and continued working until all the goods were sold out.
Some people were late and felt bad. Wendy Lark smiled and said, "We are staying in spring Village temporarily. We still have some stock, but not much." This is a hint for them to come over to buy more.
As the sun sets, several carriages are speeding on the road, laughter and joy are heard everywhere, and everyone has a happy smile on their face. When we returned to the village, Deputy Captain Luke, who had been waiting eagerly, ran over to us and said.
"How is it going? Tell me about the situation."
"Let's talk about it tonight." Lord Jeff pulled him aside and signaled his men to move the money box from the car into the house.
Wendy Lark did not follow in, but stopped and pointed at a few people, "Sixth Aunt, Brother germy, you completed your task today very well."
"Master Jeff, please give them some rewards." The first woman in hemp clothes who came out to demonstrate and bought soap was Aunt Six, Yara's grandmother. Several merchants who came from afar were selected from the Lark family.
These are all agents arranged by Wendy Lark! Mr. Jeff had never known that there were so many tricks to selling something, one after another. It opened his eyes and also filled him with awe.
Wendy Lark is not bragging, she is a genius, not only a marketing genius, but also has strong leadership skills. "Then, give each person twenty coins."
To Wendy Lark, these sales methods were commonplace in later generations, but to these people, they were novel and mysterious, and they were deeply shocking. I think she is a god! Sixth Aunt and the others were delighted, "Thank you, Mr. Jeff."
Twenty coins can buy several buns. Upon hearing the news, Wilson Lark and his wife ran out, holding their daughter's arm tightly, asking about her well-being, "Wendy Lark, you are finally back. Are you tired? Are you thirsty? Are you hungry? Come in and have a rest. There will be meat tonight."
We made a lot of money today and Lord Jeff was in a very good mood. He had someone pass on the message that we would kill a pig and have meat today as a reward for everyone.
The air was filled with joy and the exiles were looking forward to this meal of meat as they had not eaten meat for a long time. Wilson Lark and his wife surrounded their daughter and entered the house, serving her tea, water, and food. Braised pork and stewed eggs.
The cook made this dish according to her recipe, but he only used 20% of her cooking skills. Others only had a piece of meat, but she had a full bowl, and a small pot of pork rib soup with some green vegetables, which was fragrant and fresh.
She was already very hungry, but she was not picky about food and ate two bowls of rice. After she finished her meal, she took a hot bath. Mary wiped her hair dry with a towel. Then the official came to invite people. "Miss Wendy Lark, Lord Jeff wants you to come over."
Wilson Lark accompanied his daughter there, and as soon as he entered the room, he was stunned by the boxes of silver and money. This scene was too shocking. The officials were all gathered around the money box, so excited that they couldn't control themselves.
When they saw Wendy Lark and her father come in, they all stood up and greeted them, "Miss Wendy." The call of "Miss Wendy" is full of respect. Master Jeff turned his head and a rare smile appeared on his serious face.
"Miss Wendy, this is all the money we earned today. Guess how much it is?" Wendy Lark glanced at him indifferently, slightly parted her red lips, and fluently recited a string of numbers.
