Chapter 50 -50: Exorbitantly Priced Fruit
Meng Chuyue arrived at the fruit store at seven o’clock.
The other shops on this street had already opened for business.
Gu Xiaoling’s clothing store was no exception.
Meng Chuyue asked her for the locksmith’s address, then called the locksmith to change both the front and back doors on the first floor. freewebnσvel.cøm
After the locksmith left, she arranged six large round tables on the far right side of the room, and ten tea tables in two rows in the middle.
The remaining four large round tables were placed at the entrance.
The bookshelf-style shelves had already been set up by Brother Yong on the left side of the room against the wall yesterday.
Now, she placed three cashier tables in an L-shape next to the shelves, one meter from the main entrance, placed a small scale on the cashier tables, and a wicker chair behind the cashier tables.
Everything looked professional and she was just waiting for the fruit wholesaler to deliver the fruit for the opening.
Since Meng Chuyue was a new customer and had a large demand, the fruit wholesaler didn’t dare to be late and arrived at seven fifty.
He also enthusiastically helped to bring the fruit into the room.
Meng Chuyue thanked him earnestly, and after showing him out, started arranging the fruit.
She first sorted ordinary fruits on the large round tables at the entrance and the tea tables in the middle, and then placed some space fruit on the six round tables on the right.
Of course, the baskets for space fruit were also of a higher quality, which attracted much attention.
After arranging the fruits, she walked to the cashier tables, took out the hard cardboard signs with red paper she had prepared yesterday from the drawer.
She took a hard pen out of the “space” and began writing price tags and promotional signs.
In no time, not only did every fruit basket have a price tag, but a large promotional sign was also erected at the entrance.
“Jimei Fruit Store grand opening for three days: All fruits are 30% off, with apples starting at fifty cents per pound.
Additionally, premium fruits normally priced at twenty yuan per pound are now selling at a special opening price of fourteen yuan per pound, limited quantity, act fast.”
People looking at the promotional sign: “…”
This advertisement is bold.
Anyone not in a rush would want to step inside.
They wanted to see who was so bold as to open a dedicated fruit store.
And indeed, the cheap fruits were really cheap; the lowest quality apples wholesaled at eighty cents per pound, yet she was selling them for fifty cents?
Also, premium apples originally twenty yuan per pound?
How high-quality must they be to command such a price?
They definitely had to go in and see for themselves.
Before entering, most people just wanted to look and did not plan to buy.
But Meng Chuyue had prepared tasting samples.
She cut a large plate of fruit pieces from the cheapest apples, priced at fifty cents per pound, and inserted toothpicks in them.
Fruit pieces from space-produced apples, pears, and peaches were also served in small bowls with toothpicks.
To prevent people from overindulging, sample fruit pieces were placed on the cashier table, with a small red sign next to them: only one sample per item.
Almost everyone who entered tried a sample.
Some people even pretended not to know how to read to take a few extra bites of the premium fruit, but Meng Chuyue patiently and smilingly stopped them.
She had to intervene; rules could not be broken.
Because her fifty-cents-per-pound apples tasted as good as others sold for one yuan, people without money left with at least three pounds.
Those with a bit more money bought a variety of ordinary fruits.
The super wealthy not only bought several portions of ordinary fruits, but also tried a few of each type of premium fruit.
These premium fruits were priced the same, which allowed them to be weighed together; most people bought one piece of each of the six kinds of fruits.
Meng Chuyue’s space fruit included over twenty types, but due to epochal and seasonal constraints, she only offered apples, mandarins, sand pears, bananas, grapes, and sweet peaches, all uniformly priced at twenty yuan per pound.
In the morning, there were many buyers for ordinary fruits, and everyone who came to look bought something.
Fewer people bought the premium fruits, and in lesser quantities; the most anyone bought was just over three pounds.
