“I initially wanted to find a way to sell these. For now, this isn’t a bad temporary measure. If you find them effective, aunt, I can give you some,” Zhuang Qingning said.

“I see.”

Mrs. Meng looked thoughtful. “Well, Qingning, if you plan to sell these mosquito repellent herb sachets, considering their effectiveness, why don’t I help you sell them?”

“You want to sell the sachets?” Zhuang Qingning hesitated slightly. “I calculated the costs, and they are low, so there’s profit even when sold at low prices. But your shop sells cloth. Would it be easy to sell herbal sachets here?”

If Mrs. Meng was simply wanting to return a favor as Zhuang Qingning has been regularly looking after Mrs. Wen and was planning to sell herbal sachets at a loss, then it wouldn’t be appropriate.

“As long as the product is good, it will sell. Some might not recognise it initially, but it’s not expensive. We can give it to some loyal customers. When they find it useful, they’ll come for more,” said Mrs. Meng.

“As a mosquito magnet, I haven’t had any issues with them tonight, which shows how effective your herbal sachets are. A good wine needs no bush; there’s no reason that a good product won’t sell.”

Mrs. Meng was very confident about this opportunity. “The county town may be big, but it’s also small in some ways. If any restaurant has a new dish or if any shop sells a new item, the news spreads within several days to the entire town.”

“Many people are troubled by mosquitoes in summers. As long as the repellent effecitve, there’s no reason it won’t sell. The only issue would be maintaining the supply once the demand picks up.”

“Qingning, since I genuinely think this can make money, why don’t we sell these sachets at our cloth shop?” So she viewed Mrs. Meng as an excellent, versitile, business-minded person.

She got along well with Yutian and Mrs. Meng, both of whom were excellent at doing business and were good people as well.

In this case, nothing would be lost by cooperating.

Zhuang Qingning nodded. “If you’re willing to do it, Aunt, I’ve been looking for a way to sell these sachets. I’m very open to it.”

Seeing Zhuang Qingning agree, Mrs. Meng discussed the selling details with her with an even brighter smile.

Zhuang Qingning, on the other hand, provided some suggestions for improving the sachets.

For instance, they could sell repellent sachet in addition to larger herb packages.

The repellent herbs could be put in a sachet that one could carry around, preventing mosquito bites outdoors. The sachet could be conveniently carried around and would also be more comfortable to use.

Since the herbs are cheap, the price of a sachet could just be one coin higher than the regular ones. This way, for the same price, most people would choose the mosquito repellent sachet, which could boost the sales.

In addition to the repellent sachets, the herbs could be used to make repellent pillows, selling ready-made soft pillows and offering one-time free replacement of the herb pillows, which could boost the sales of soft pillows in the shop.

As for usual practices, such as giving existing customers free samples and when they buy a certain amount of sachets, adding one for free, Mrs. Meng was already proficient in implementing these strategies and proved insightful when discussing them with Zhuang Qingning.

Since Mrs. Meng was full of ideas and capable of refining the details, Zhuang Qingning felt she made the right choice for her partner.
