Chapter 148: 070: Instant Retribution, Karma Strikes_8

Hearing this, Huang Yue thought about it in her heart.

Indeed, their business was doing quite well now. If she agreed to franchise, the chain stores would increase, and the brand would grow bigger.

Maybe they could even go public in the future!

Besides, with the franchising fee and the cost of goods, she wouldn’t be losing out.

These OEM products were very cheap, costing ten yuan to purchase from the factory, and she could sell them to Ma Xiaolan for one hundred yuan, making a tidy profit.

Huang Yue hadn’t expected that someone would want to franchise just a few days after opening her store, and she was immediately thrilled.

"You can franchise, but the fee is a bit expensive, at two hundred thousand," Huang Yue said looking at Ma Xiaolan and then continued, "However, Xiaolan, we’ve known each other for so long, and I was able to get my shop back thanks largely to you. I charge others two hundred thousand, but if you want to franchise, how about I charge you one hundred fifty thousand? I’ll also give you the skincare products at cost price."

Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaolan was extremely excited and said immediately, "Thank you, Sister Huang, I’ll transfer the franchising fee to you tonight."

She hadn’t expected Huang Yue to agree so quickly.

It seemed her flattery over the past few days hadn’t been in vain.

"Good." Huang Yue nodded, "After I receive your franchising fee, I’ll send you the cost price list tonight."

"Great, great, great," Ma Xiaolan continued, "then I’ll go back right now to get my husband to transfer the money, send me your account number."

Huang Yue took out her phone, "I’ll send it to your WeChat."

Ma Xiaolan stood up from the ground and dashed towards Zhang Ji Restaurant across the street to share the good news with her husband.

Her husband was also very excited upon hearing the news.

Selling skincare products was certainly more profitable than selling food.

They planned to split Zhang Ji Restaurant into two storefronts overnight. He would manage the food sales, and his wife would sell skincare products. Since the restaurant was already renovated, it was simple to separate a storefront.

After transferring the franchise fee, Ma Xiaolan sent another one hundred thousand yuan to Huang Yue for the order.

They wanted to make a big profit during the Promotion Festival.

The Promotion Festival was the next day.

As expected, the foot traffic on South Street was much higher than usual because customers who had used Empress’s freckle cream saw results overnight. Thus, even more people showed up on the day of the Promotion Festival.

Zhang Ji Restaurant, which was the franchise store, also attracted a lot of people.

By contrast, Beauty Chant’s business was faring much worse.

Lin Guixiang, looking at the transaction amount of only eighty thousand, became anxious and turned to Lin Wu, "Xiao Wu, shouldn’t we drop our prices now?"

Usually, at this time, Beauty Chant’s turnover would have already exceeded one hundred thousand.

But today they had only sold a hundred or so orders.

It seemed like the only way to regain customer traffic now was to reduce prices.

If they continued like this, Empress would take all their business.

Lin Wu appeared calm and collected, even her voice was indifferent, "Mom, there’s no rush. This is just the beginning."

Those customers poached by Empress had not used Beauty Chant before.

Only through comparison could the superiority and inferiority be more directly observed.

Zhao Cuinong came over and said, "I heard that the Zhang Ji Restaurant opposite us also franchised Empress, and they’re able to sell goods today!"

"Really?" Lin Guixiang asked.

Zhao Cuinong nodded.

Lin Guixiang was puzzled, "Can their Empress really remove spots and acne?"

Zhao Cuinong shook her head, "That I don’t know, but people who have used it say the effects are quite good. When I passed by there just now, you should have seen how smug Ma Xiaolan was!"

Almost high enough to reach the sky.

Elsewhere.

Empress had been queuing up all day long, and the products in the store had sold out.

Even Zhang Ji Restaurant across the street was doing excellently.

Overjoyed, Ma Xiaolan went to Empress and said to Huang Yue, "Sister Huang, if the business is this good on the first day of the Promotion, it will surely be even better tomorrow. I need to stock up again!"

Huang Yue responded, "We don’t have enough to sell ourselves, so how about this, I’ll give you another two hundred orders tomorrow."

"Great!" Ma Xiaolan said with a smile, "Thank you, Sister Huang."

——

The next morning.

To sell more items, Zhou Zhongquan and his wife, Huang Yue, arrived at the store bright and early.

As soon as they arrived, they saw a queue had already started forming at the door.

Huang Yue looked at the crowd lining up and said with a smile, "Everyone, please stay calm, don’t rush, let’s form an orderly queue, and I’ll go open the door right away."

As she spoke, she took out her phone and started recording a video to post to the South Street merchants’ WeChat group.

"Our place is swamped first thing in the morning, it’s killing me, they won’t even let us get a good rest on the weekends."

She wanted to show off.

After all.

Lin Guixiang and Zhao Cuinong were also in the group.

Seeing Huang Yue recording a video, the people in the queue became dissatisfied, "What are you recording? Can’t you see we’re all queuing up? Hurry up and open the door, selling us the products is what matters!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

Huang Yue was not afraid of these people, "If you think I’m slow, you can go buy from someone else. I’m not begging you to buy from me."

What could they do about her bad attitude?

These people would still obediently buy from her!

Shortly after, Huang Yue opened the door and began to sell skincare products.

Just then, a young girl wearing a mask and sunglasses suddenly ran up to the front of the queue, "Are you the owner of Empress?"

Huang Yue nodded with a hint of superiority in her eyes, "I’m the owner, but we don’t allow cutting in line. Being chummy won’t help you. If you want to buy something, go back and line up at the end!"

At that, the girl grabbed Huang Yue by the hair and shouted furiously, "You swindler! Selling toxic skincare products to harm people, do you know you’ve ruined me, I can’t even face my boyfriend now!"

Before Huang Yue could react, the girl turned to face the crowd, took off her mask and sunglasses, and revealed a face full of sores, "I urge everyone not to be deceived, all of Empress’s skincare products are filled with various hormones and toxic chemicals. My face only had a few pimples before, but after using their poisonous skincare products, my face became like this, the doctor said there’s no hope for recovery!"
