The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 313: The Battle of Business Begins



Tang Shishi rushed back to the courtyard, sharing Tang Li’s ideas with Xiao Shun.

Xiao Shun pondered for a moment and said, “This method of cooperation could work.”

“How about we split the profits fifty-fifty? That way, no one is at a disadvantage or takes advantage. Perfect,” Tang Shishi excitedly exclaimed as soon as she heard him agree.

“No, I want control,” Xiao Shun retorted.

He had only learned what control meant a few months ago, that it meant having the final say, so he was very insistent on this point.

“You can have control, what about a fifty-fifty profit split?”

“That’s fine, but do you have the final say?” Xiao Shun asked, staring at her.

“No.”

“Then why are you discussing so much with me now?” Xiao Shun glanced at her disdainfully.

“Can’t you be a little more gentlemanly, a little kinder to me? I’ve taken a knife for you!” Tang Shishi was indignant.

Here we go again…

Xiao Shun wished he could immediately take a knife for her and get rid of this troublesome matter.

Starline Bio, after reclaiming its distribution rights, immediately issued an announcement on the official website. From that day on, Starline would temporarily only sell in the company’s online mall and in the Goodhealth and Kindlove pharmacies in various cities.

With Starline Bio’s current production capacity, it was impossible to meet the needs of these hundreds of pharmacies. They could only start deploying from a few key cities.

Once this move was made, the counterfeit products that had previously made a killing with Starline took a significant blow.

Of course, these counterfeit products are endless. After all, the country is so big, and the population is so large, it’s impossible for everyone to distinguish between real and fake.

Moreover, some people needed counterfeit products, which was an unavoidable fact.

However, as Starline’s production capacity is quickly released and fully deployed, the living space for these counterfeit products will shrink.

Yao Cen had confidence in Starline, but it was impossible to make Starline into a big brand like the Kumi Group in just a few months.

She wasn’t afraid of them grabbing the market, she was afraid that those small workshops would ruin Starline’s reputation.

With centuries-old stores like Goodhealth and Kindlove standing by her, at least Starline would soon be able to establish its brand and hold its ground.

Meanwhile, the Yao family’s product, Golden Essence, with the banner of the Yao family’s ancestral secret recipe, was quickly spreading throughout Oakland, and their products could be seen in all major supermarkets.

However, the expected rush to purchase did not materialize.

One could only describe it as lukewarm, which was not hard to imagine. With so many well-known brands out there, and with Starline having been on the market for so long, consumers wouldn’t just buy their claims that Starline had stolen their ancestral secret recipe.

A week later, the Yao family cooled down from their initial excitement and began to look for reasons.

In the Yao family’s ancestral home, the new company’s core executives, of course, were also the Yao family descendants, gathered together.

“Let’s have Xiaoyu announce the sales of Golden Essence over the past week to everyone first.”

Yao Zhen Shu was slightly disappointed, but his face remained calm. He had been running businesses for decades and knew that a product’s journey from production to promotion to public acceptance was never a quick one.

Starline also went through half a year of accumulation before gradually being recognized by consumers and developing into what it is now.

Yao Zhen Shu still had great confidence in his own products. He just needed time, and he believed it wouldn’t be long. He was just a little disappointed because he initially had overly high expectations.

Yao Xiaoyu solemnly opened the folder and optimistically introduced, “In the past week, our company’s sales results are actually quite good for a start, with a total sales volume of 230, 000, which is much better than most new companies.”

“Based on this sales volume, we’re going to suffer a loss this month, and we’ll have to pay in more,” a slightly overweight middle-aged man in a grey suit said.

“Uncle Ping, this is just the beginning, it’s very normal. Many new companies are far behind us,” Yao Xiaoyu said with a smile.

Honestly, she was very satisfied with the results of the first week. She knew that Starline Bio had hardly sold anything in its first month and had suffered substantial losses for three to four months, so she was not in the least bit worried.

“Xiaoyu is right, you all have started businesses before and should understand that every newbusiness has to go through this period. We’re still lacking in promotional efforts. Xiaoyu, you need to take note of this, intensify our efforts, and quickly implement our advertising,” Yao Zhen Shu said.

“Okay, Grandpa. I believe that once our customers have used our products and the word of mouth is out, plus advertising promotion, we will be profitable very soon,” Yao Xiaoyu confidently said.

“Feel free to go all out, Grandpa will back you up.”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

After Yao Zhen Shu finished speaking, he looked at the others, “Xiaoyu is still young, you all need to fully support her work. The company is everyone’s company. If it does well, it’s good for everyone.”

“Don’t worry, we understand this. We’re all in the same boat now. We’re waiting for the company to succeed and share the dividends. We will definitely fully support Xiaoyu’s work,” Yao Ping said with a grin.

At this point, the Yao family descendants had invested most of their fortunes in the new company, all hoping to make a fortune from this company.

“Why don’t we just change our name to Starline and change our packaging to be the same as theirs? After all, the contents are the same. If Yao Cen dares to sue us, we can also sue her for patent infringement. Anyway, such a lawsuit would last for several years, and by then we would have made enough,” Li Chunlian suggested at this point.

“Mom, there’s no need for that. We don’t have to resort to the courts. Trust me, it won’t be long before our Golden Essence will be as popular as Starline. The market is so big, both of our companies won’t be able to saturate it anytime soon,” Yao Xiaoyu said.

She didn’t have the ruthlessness of Li Chunlian, and she felt somewhat guilty about the origin of this formula.

“I’m just anxious,” Li Chunlian muttered.

Meanwhile, at the Tang family villa.

Tang Li had received the ointment sent by Tang Shishi early in the morning.

To more directly experience the miraculous effect of this ointment, he personally made a cut on his arm. As someone who had experienced the pain of poison, this little injury was nothing to him.

Following Tang Shishi’s instructions, he applied the ointment directly, and the pain immediately lessened.

Every day thereafter, he would observe the changes in the wound.

Almost a week had passed, and he found that not only had the wound healed, but even the scar was fading. He estimated that in a few more days, it would be as if the wound had never existed. This was truly miraculous.

“What a wonderful thing,” Tang Li exclaimed, then turned to Wen Shi, “Book me the earliest flight to Stillwater. I want to meet Mr. Xiao in person.”
