Chapter 158 Free Tasting

Chaochao also saw her mother's actions. She scratched her face in confusion, looked around, and when she saw that no one was around, she whispered a reminder, "Mom, this hasn't been paid for yet."

Jian Yunsang was taken aback, but seeing the little girl looking so nervous, she couldn't help but laugh.

She placed another box on the cart and then smiled, "Let's choose everything we want to buy, put it in the cart, and pay for it all together when we leave."

Chaochao was surprised, "Is that possible?"

"Of course, look at everyone else, aren't they all like this?"

Chaochao was so surprised by how many items the supermarket had that she didn't notice how the other customers were using the products.

After her mother reminded her, she looked at the others and found that everyone had indeed chosen their goods, put them on their carts, and pushed them to the next shelf.

The people of Daqi under the sky found it utterly unbelievable. Could this really be possible?
Emperor Jingxuan put down his cup and squinted at the customers. Some were pushing carts, some were carrying things in their hands, and others had their hands in their pockets. They were walking slowly through the supermarket, behaving in strange ways.

The Vice Minister of Justice was astonished. "So this supermarket allows customers to choose what they want and then pay? But that depends on the customers' conscience. What if they encounter a petty thief who hides the items and walks out? Wouldn't the supermarket suffer a huge loss?"

Moreover, in his view, this supermarket model attracts mostly petty thieves.

If this were in Daqi, the supermarket would probably be filled with beggars who have nothing to eat or wear, idle loafers, or people who want to take advantage of others.

"They could even eat and drink their fill in the supermarket before leaving. Did later generations of shopkeepers underestimate the evil in human nature?"

Emperor Jingxuan seemed to be deep in thought, and the Grand Tutor also narrowed his eyes, "Perhaps... this is the benefit of reading for all. Reading and writing can indeed make people more reasonable and more ashamed."

An official whispered, "But that's 1.4 billion people. How can we expect everyone to understand this?" That would be an enormous undertaking.
Putting everything else aside, no matter how many people are reasonable, there will always be those who want to take advantage. For such people, this supermarket is like a rat entering a rice granary; they'd be doing themselves a disservice if they didn't take something with them.

For the people of Daqi, the idea of ​​choosing their own goods and then paying for them on their own is simply too absurd.

Where else in their shops would you find such treatment? Some shopkeepers don't even let you touch anything; they'll give you whatever you want without giving you any choice.

But look at supermarkets in later generations, what did they see?
There were several women selling vegetables at the stall, throwing away the bad leaves and picking and choosing the tenderest and best ones to put in their bags.

Isn't this going too far? They wouldn't let you pick things out like this even at the market.

In that case, would anyone still buy slightly inferior vegetables? Wouldn't all these vegetables have to be thrown away? Wouldn't the supermarket go bankrupt?

Some people shook their heads, "Can this supermarket stay open for long?"

The people of Daqi were discussing this extensively. Some merchants even wanted to see how general stores would operate in the future, hoping they could learn from it and perhaps make more money.

Given the current situation, aside from the fact that this supermarket is indeed very large, there's no point in even considering anything else. If they were to adopt this method, they'd probably lose everything.

The merchants couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh.

Meanwhile, Jian Yunsang and his two companions were having a great time. They first bought some loose fruits and snacks, as they would be going to Jinwen Village in the next few days, and they needed to prepare some necessary daily necessities.

Chaochao's eyes were practically dazzled by the sights, especially since she didn't recognize many of the items. However, she seemed to have seen a few of the snacks in the bag Yuanyuan had given her before. After hesitating for a moment, she chose those few.

In the end, Jian Yunsang helped her carry quite a lot. When Chaochao saw that her little cart was full of things, she hurriedly said, "That's enough, Mom, that's enough."

Seeing this, Jian Yunsang had no choice but to stop. "If Chaochao sees something she wants, she must tell her mother."

"it is good."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chaochao looked curiously at a salesperson next to her. There was a small table in front of the salesperson, and on the table was a small disposable paper cup filled with green water.

She glanced at it curiously a couple more times, and the salesperson smiled and said to her, "Little one, would you like to try our newest drink?"

Chaochao immediately shook her head, "I won't buy it."

The salesperson immediately smiled, "It's okay if you don't buy it, you can just try it out."

As she spoke, she noticed Jian Yunsang standing to the side and naturally handed her a paper cup.

Jian Yunsang readily took the cup, glanced at the sign on their table, and then drank the beverage in the paper cup.

After finishing his drink, he nodded, picked up another bottle of beverage to check the ingredients, and said to Chaochao, "It tastes alright, want to try it?"

Chaochao hesitated for a moment, but seeing that the salesperson was still holding the cup in her hand and looking at her enthusiastically, she carefully took it and took a small sip.

Jian Yunsang looked down at her and asked, "How is it?"

Chaochao's little eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she glanced at the salesperson again, looking quite hesitant.

Jian Yunsang understood. She returned the disposable paper cup to the salesperson and said with a smile, "Thank you, we'll take another look."

"Okay." The saleswoman didn't say much, but waved to Chaochao and said with a smile, "Goodbye, little one."

Chaochao waved subconsciously, and after walking more than ten meters, she looked back and then asked Jian Yunsang in a low voice, "Mom, we ate her food, is it okay if we don't buy anything?"

"It's okay, this is a tasting event at the supermarket. If we like the taste, of course we can buy it. If we don't like the taste, we don't have to buy it. There's no pressure. Besides, this supermarket isn't particularly big. Some very large supermarkets have many tasting booths. Some people can get full after trying all the samples, saving them a lunch."

Chaochao's eyes widened. Could this really be happening? Wouldn't they really lose out?
The merchants of Daqi were speechless.

I had originally wanted to learn, but after hearing what Miss Jian said, my heart started pounding.

They believe that if they really dare to hold this tasting event, many people will stand aside and eat until they are full.

However, it's not impossible to implement. As long as certain conditions and thresholds are set, it might actually be able to run.

Hmm, I'll make a proper plan later.
