After three months, the sales figures began to drop, and very quickly. From the previous month's sales of 40,000 boxes, they had halved, and now there were only 20,000 boxes left.
This result was actually within Jia Yapeng's expectations. Yuzhang City's market was only so big, and there were only so many students. Moreover, the number of students who could afford to buy crispy noodle snacks was no more than 5%. Being able to sell so many crispy noodle snacks had already exceeded Jia Yapeng's expectations. The market in Yuzhang City was almost fully developed.
After all, after three months, most of the buyers who wanted to collect all the crispy noodle snacks had already been collected. Those who didn't have enough money had given up and become salted fish.
More importantly, after three months of development, the parents also knew about Little Fairy Crispy Noodle Snacks. They also knew that their children asked their parents for food expenses every day, and took the initiative to stay in school for meals every day. It wasn't because they wanted to study hard, but because they wanted to buy crispy noodle snacks, or even because they wanted the cards inside.
Even an idiot would know how much of a fuss this would cause. It was said that within a day, hundreds of children's butts would be blooming with flowers.
After that, it also directly affected the Daqian Food Factory. Four or five parents banded together to complain to the relevant authorities, complaining that the Daqian Food Factory had cheated their children and misled them to buy crispy noodle snacks.
Logically speaking, if there were media such as Weibo and WeChat Moments in this era, and if these parents cried in front of the camera, and then all kinds of marketing accounts released one after another, Little Fairy Crispy Noodle Snacks might really be out of business.
Fortunately, this was the 1990s, and there weren't so many media tools. The government also wouldn't jump to conclusions based on hearsay. Instead, they sent an investigation team to investigate.
However, they weren't investigating whether Little Fairy Crispy Noodle Snacks had misled consumers, but the quality and hygiene of the Daqian Food Factory!
After all, in this era, there was no such advanced term and crime as misleading consumption in the law. The relevant departments could only investigate the quality of the food.
Fortunately, Jia Yapeng had eaten all kinds of unethical food in his previous life. In addition, he still kept his bottom line as a businessman. Therefore, the raw materials used by the Daqian Food Factory were absolutely legal and clean. The oil used to fry instant noodles was changed every three days, and the machines were cleaned and disinfected for half an hour every day. Therefore, in the face of this sudden inspection, the Daqian Food Factory almost got a perfect score. Therefore, the matter was left unsettled.
This made Jia Yapeng feel lucky, and at the same time, he was more determined to ask about quality and hygiene. Jia Yapeng often couldn't understand why the large enterprises in Houjing City were repeatedly found to have problems with their quality and hygiene. Although these things cost some money, it was still relatively small compared to the profits they made.
It wasn't a problem to think of all kinds of ways to make money, but it was a big problem to abandon one's conscience in order to make money.
Back to the topic, although the sales in Yuzhang City had decreased greatly in the fourth month, Jia Yapeng's face was still full of smiles. This was because the plan he had set up three months ago had started to take effect.
In three months, Jia Yapeng had sent out 35 people, including He Guagua, one after another, to open up the market in the entire Xijiang Province. Although eight of them gave up for various reasons, the remaining 27 people all persevered and achieved very gratifying results.
Although the sales in the first three months weren't much, as time passed, and the influence of the Water Margin Hero Card gradually spread from Yuzhang City to the surrounding cities, the sales of the entire Xijiang Province began to rise.
In the fourth month, the sales of the other cities in Xijiang Province had also reached 20,000 boxes, which was the same as Yuzhang City. However, this was just the beginning. Jia Yapeng believed that in about three months, this number would exceed 100,000 boxes.
It wasn't just the sales of 100,000 boxes in three months, but after three months, the monthly sales would exceed 100,000 boxes. At that time, the monthly sales of the Daqian Food Factory would exceed one million yuan, and it would become the first private food company in the entire Xijiang Province to exceed one million yuan in monthly sales.
It had to be known that at this time, the best monthly sales of other private food enterprises was only around 100,000 yuan.
However, these were all things for next year, because today was New Year's Eve, and the holidays were coming soon.
Jia Yapeng wasn't a black-hearted boss. Although he wanted goods everywhere, he still decided not to go to work on New Year's Eve. He would hold an annual meeting for everyone in the morning and let them go home in the afternoon to celebrate the New Year happily.
Although it was called an annual meeting, it was actually just a general arrangement of the meeting room. It was full of chairs, a rostrum, and all kinds of fruits and snacks.
Anyway, it was the same throughout the 1990s, and Zhang Qiuhan wasn't interested in doing anything new. It was good that it saved money.
Before 9 o 'clock in the morning, the whole meeting room was full of people. In addition to the workers, all the marketing managers who were assigned to work had all come back, so there weren't enough chairs. Many people had to stand at the back.
At 9 o 'clock, Jia Yapeng appeared on the rostrum on time and said with a smile, "Everyone here is my elder, so I won't say anything useless. Let's eat first!"
There was a burst of laughter in the audience, and the people who were a little nervous couldn't help but start eating. While they were eating, Jia Yapeng said, "The first thing today is to report the sales of our factory this year!"
"It's hard to say. Today, I'll give you a big figure. This year, our factory has shipped 150,000 boxes of goods, and the sales volume has reached 800,000 yuan. As for the profit, it's not much, but it's still 400,000 yuan. However, this profit doesn't include the salary I give you!" Jia Yapeng said with a smile. The audience was cheering and laughing.
Jia Yapeng snapped his fingers, and the finance department came in with a big pot of RMB. "Everyone has contributed to this achievement, so I'm announcing that every employee will be given three months of salary as a year-end bonus. And this year-end bonus will be given to everyone by me personally!"
"Come, everyone, don't be anxious. When I call your name, come up and receive your bonus!"
Everyone's face was full of surprise. They really didn't expect that such a small private enterprise could receive a year-end bonus, and it was so generous to give three months of salary. This was even more generous than a state-owned enterprise, which only gave a month's salary at most!
Looking at the smiling Little Boss Jia Yapeng on the stage, who was giving out money to everyone with question marks, the people couldn't help but feel emotional.
In the past few months, everyone felt like they were on a roller coaster ride. In the first half of this year, the factory was basically in a state of closure. Even the boss and lady boss died tragically in order to collect debts, and they were replaced by a little kid who didn't even have hair yet.
Everyone thought that the factory was done for, and their dreams had changed. They only hoped that they could sell the factory's equipment and pay themselves half a year's worth of wages, and they would be satisfied.
But who would have thought that in less than half a year, everything would change? The Little Boss came up with some inexplicable new product as soon as he took office, and he insisted on selling some pictures. At that time, they were so worried that they couldn't sleep at night.
But who would have thought that all of this would inexplicably change? The new product's sales were heaven-defying, and they sold a result that they didn't even dare to imagine before.
Sales of 800,000 yuan in half a year, the old factory director who had been running the factory for ten years probably didn't have such sales!
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes couldn't help but turn red. If the old factory director was still here, how good would it be to see this scene with his own eyes!
