Qiu Shiqing was efficient and decisive. She had her staff quickly weigh the produce and immediately arrange it into exquisite packaging. She even gave it a name that was full of promise: Vigorous Grape! She instructed her staff to emphasize its diuretic properties and ability to improve kidney function when promoting it. She stopped short of calling it an aphrodisiac, which would have sounded too tacky.
As the weighing and packaging continued, prices were marked on the boxes. Zhao Tiezhu glanced at them: eighty-eight yuan per catty! Good grief! That was an aggressive profit margin. If one could cut out the middleman, there was serious money to be made. What shocked him even more, however, were the customers, who were snatching them up as if they were free.
"Oh my, give me two catties! I'm going home to try them!"
