Houzi was anxious and tried to convince him, "Brother Li, you know that your second brother-in-law is also part of my business. Based on our relationship, giving us 25% of the profit is not too much, right?"
Not long after he finished speaking, Li Chenmo finally sighed and said, "Since this is also profitable for my second brother-in-law, I will accept the price. We need two days to prepare the grain. You can take the grain from the grain store directly."
"As for the other items, you can send someone to pick them up tomorrow night at my house," he added.
"Good. Then I will inform my man," Houzi nodded.
Sitting next to her husband, Lu Jueyu looked at the number of orders and said, "Brother Houzi, I don’t have that much tonic wine right now."
When Houzi heard this, he frowned and asked, "Sister-in-law, how much tonic wine do you have in your hand?"
"For the usual tonic wine, I only have 100 liters at most. However, I use inferior medicinal materials to brew more tonic wine. The effect is just not as good as what I sold before but the price is cheaper," Lu Jueyu explained.
"Sister-in-law, can you give me a taste of the cheaper tonic wine?" Houzi asked.
"Okay, please wait a moment," Lu Jueyu nodded.
After leaving the living room, she went to the kitchen and took out several small bottles from her space. The bottles contained different grades of her tonic wine.
When she came back, she put the bottle on the table and said, "Brother Houzi, you can tell the difference just by looking at the color."
"The clearer the color of the tonic wine, the higher the grade. As for the lower grade tonic wine, the color is darker, the taste of herbs is stronger, and it has a slightly bitter taste," she added.
Lu Jueyu poured the tonic wine into several small cups and explained, "In order to easily distinguish the tonic wine, I gave it a grade. The one I sold before was a premium grade because it had the best quality. From the highest to lowest, there is S grade, A grade, B grade, C grade, and D grade."
"In terms of price, the S grade’s price is lower by 5% from the premium grade. The price of A grade will be 10% lower than the S grade. The remaining prices from A grade to D grade will be reduced by 15%."
Houzi looked at the color, picked up the cup and smelled it. With just one breath, he understood why the grades were different. The lower the grade, the cloudier the color and the stronger the medicinal smell.
He took a sip of D grade tonic wine and froze. Although it is the lowest grade, the taste is much better than what is sold in state-owned supply stores, and is on par with what is sold in the department store.
