By the time they had produced eight thousand units, it was already the end of December, and Cao Dali and his group had arrived in Capital City in October, nearly two months ago.
They had started getting used to the weather in Capital City as well.
"Dali, sister-in-law, Xiao He, let’s not buy braised meat for now. Let’s buy electric rice cookers instead, since it affects whether they can make money this year."
Zhao Tianhe and Cao Dali had both invested money, but since they had previously run an electrical appliance store, they didn’t have much left. However, they still contributed.
"Consider it your commission, making one dollar for every unit sold."
"Third Brother, can I buy one?"
She planned to bring one back to her parental home for the New Year.
"You don’t need to buy them, each of you will get one as a gift," Zhao Tianlei said generously.
"You all know how to cook rice, so when the time comes, explain it to the customers... "
Yun Xiaoxiao was still giving Zhao Tianlei advice.
With so much stock, their electrical appliance store couldn’t effectively sell it all on its own.
At most, they could still sell off some in batches.
Of course, they could also organize a sales event.
They could also recruit some temporary sales assistants to help sell the stock and offer them a commission too.
There were surely quite a few people who would come and buy the stock to resell.
The prices were also set. The small model, suitable for two or three people, was priced at thirty-five each.
The medium-sized, enough for a family of five or six, was priced at forty-five.
The large model, which could serve up to ten people, was priced at sixty.
Early in the morning, Yun Xiaoxiao had called over Da Bao and Xiao Bao and even closed the jewelry store, gathering everyone at the doorstep of the electrical appliance store.
Yun Xiaoxiao asked Zhao Xinxin to bring out several models of the cooker to cook rice, porridge, and stew soup.
Only after a demostration did people start to buy them.
To attract people, they even set off firecrackers.
"Passing uncles and aunties, brothers and sisters, come take a look, come check it out. Are you still troubled by cooking rice? Are you anxious about porridge sticking to the pot? Is making soup too much hassle? Come and see the magical cooking device from Hong Kong... "
Yun Xiaoxiao was shouting through a megaphone to the crowd.
She didn’t mind if it was embarrassing or not.
Seeing his wife’s voice turning hoarse from shouting, Zhao Tianlei quickly took over the microphone and continued shouting.
It must be said, it really piqued people’s interest.
Da Bao and Xiao Bao also knew about the electric rice cooker and enthusiastically introduced it to the customers entering the store.
"Sister, this pot is especially convenient for cooking rice. I can cook with it myself. It comes with a measuring cup, so you won’t mess up your rice..."
Even the children can cook?
"Look, this is the porridge... and this is the soup..."
The regulars who usually bought braised meat saw the electric rice cooker that could cook rice, make porridge, and stew soup.
"Once it’s done cooking, it automatically switches off."
Many customers, upon seeing it, felt the urge and immediately bought one.
A rice paddle, a measuring cup, and a user manual were included with the purchase.
Some were tempted, but still watching.
Even some young men came into the store to buy.
Listening to the sales assistants on how to cook rice and how much water was needed.
And about how long it would take to cook the rice.
It was especially convenient.
Although the business that day wasn’t booming, it still attracted quite a lot of onlookers..
There were too many electric rice cookers.
The morning business wasn’t very good, but by midday, quite a few people had shown up.
Those who had bought the electric rice cooker for the first time cooked with it by noon, and as the sales assistant had said, it was really convenient.
It was electrically powered.
By evening, both the adults and children were exhausted.
After counting the stock and tallying the earnings, they went to a nearby restaurant to dine.
