The guy looked at Chen Qiang up and down, then said, "You wait a moment, I'll go find our manager."

After all, milk powder is something passed down by foreigners, and the production and sales of milk powder are also managed in Western style, so the person in charge here is the "manager", not the shopkeeper like traditional shop owners.

If you sell milk powder according to traditional business methods, you probably won’t be able to sell it. When ordinary people see the attitude of selling milk powder and selling Beijing roast duck, they will also think that the milk powder is not authentic and different from what is imported from abroad.

It’s like opening a Western restaurant, creating a Chinese-style decoration, hanging a big red lantern, pasting a big red pair, and posing a statue of the God of Wealth when entering the door. The waiter was wearing a cheongsam, and there was a guzheng playing next to it. Customers could tell at a glance that this Western restaurant was not authentic.

A moment later, a middle-aged man in a black suit and round glasses came over.

"Manager Hu, it's him." The guy pointed at Chen Qiang.

Manager Hu walked over, he looked up and down first, then asked, "Brother, want to come here to do short-term work? How long do you plan to do it?"

"So the National Games are over." Chen Qiang replied.

Manager Hu nodded slightly. He really lacked people to sell milk powder now.

For these vendors, just like those modern commodity fairs, the exhibitors will definitely hire some temporary workers to distribute flyers or some trial samples. At this time, no matter how many people there are, there are not many people. If the entire exhibition is full of people from a certain merchant doing sales, then the merchant will definitely become popular.

Manager Hu also had this idea. He wished that everyone was selling Baohua milk powder around him, and he also wanted to hire a few more people, but unfortunately, his funding was limited and he couldn't afford to hire many people.

So when he saw someone coming to work for a short-term job, Manager Hu was not opposed to it. Instead, he was very happy. As long as the wages were low, the temporary worker who paid for the payment every day would have to pay as much as he would.

Manager Hu asked, "What do you know?"

"I can help you sell milk powder." Chen Qiang said.

Manager Hu asked again: "That's what about wages?"

Chen Qiang smiled slightly, knowing that if Manager Hu was allowed to offer the price, he would definitely not be able to pay a very high salary.

So Chen Qiang said, "Manager Hu, I am an athlete, an athlete who comes to participate in the National Games."

"Oh? Are you still a strong player to participate in the competition?" Manager Hu was immediately surprised, and then looked at Chen Qiang with a suspicious look.

Those who can be athletes these days are basically rich children. These people are not short of money and will not come out to work short-term workers.

Chen Qiang continued: "I am not only an athlete, but also the champion of 100-meter sprint."

"Are you still a champion? The 100 sprint champion is the fastest running?" Manager Hu's suspicion became more and more obvious. He didn't realize that the National Games sprint champion would come to his place to do short-term work.

Chen Qiang felt Manager Hu's suspicion, so he explained: "My name is Chen Qiang. I just won the 100-meter sprint championship for this National Games two days ago. If you don't believe it, I can show you the trophy, or you can go to the sports field to inquire if there is such a thing. Tens of thousands of people have witnessed it with their own eyes and cannot deceive people."

Manager Hu thought about it and thought that what Chen Qiang said made sense. The National Sports Stadium was right next to him and the National Games competition was also ongoing. Going to someone to ask you can verify whether what Chen Qiang said is true. Chen Qiang doesn't have to lie for such a thing.

Chen Qiang continued: "Manager Hu, I can put the trophy and award certificate here later, and then sell the goods for you. Everyone will know that my champion of the National Games is your Baohua milk powder. Do you think I, the champion of the National Games, will advertise you on the spot, how much is the salary worth a day?"

Manager Hu is not a fool, on the contrary, he is a very smart businessman. Of course, he knows that the celebrity effect will be of great help to product sales.

What's more, Chen Qiang is also the 100-meter champion of the National Games, and the National Games are still in progress. Chen Qiang is also a popular fan. The venue of the National Games is right next to him, allowing a National Games champion to sell milk powder on the spot. This is a hot topic. This advertising effect can definitely beat other vendors in an instant.

Manager Hu hesitated for a moment and said, "Chen Jianjiang, right? If you are willing to come, I will give you 15 yuan a day!"

"Okay, but you have to take care of the food!" Chen Qiang said with a smile.

"No problem, I'll ask you to go to the restaurant!" Manager Hu agreed without hesitation.

...

When Shanghai opened its port, foreigners also brought a lot of dairy products. The initial dairy products were imported, including milk powder, cream, cheese, cheese, condensed milk, etc. Brands include Cynn, Bear Card, Eagle Card, Letulin, Horizon, and Ailan Bailey. Many brands can be found in modern times. If Cynnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

In the 1920s, if not colonies, China was the world's second largest importer of dairy products, and it needed to import nearly 70 million tons of dairy products every year. Such a large market naturally gave birth to a group of national capitalists to devote themselves to the production of dairy products. For example, China's first "Standard A-level Pasteurization Regulations" was introduced by the United States in 1925.

At that time, fresh milk was very high. In the 1920s, a bottle of fresh milk was almost the same as the ocean. Ordinary people really couldn't afford it, so wealthy families could enjoy fresh milk. Driven by this high profit, many bad vendors would mix water into the milk, wash rice water and soy milk, and even more so, blend alkali powder or white ash paste for painting walls in spoiled milk to cover up the sour smell of bad milk.

It is also for this reason that the Shanghai Concession at that time ordered that Chinese people were not allowed to sell fresh milk in the concession.

So the dairy pollution incident at the beginning of the 21st century is really not new. Someone did it more than 80 years ago.

For athletes, milk is naturally a must-have. Athletes of that era did not have any nutrient solution or nutritional meals, so milk became a very important source of nutrition. At that time, Chinese medicine even used milk to treat tuberculosis and anemia, and Western medicine would also recommend those patients in the recovery period to use milk instead of traditional porridge or rice paste.

Chen Qiang also thought about drinking milk to supplement nutrition, but when he found out the price, he directly retreated. A bottle of the ocean, Chen Qiang couldn't afford it.

Compared with fresh milk, milk powder is much cheaper.

Milk powder is easy to carry, easy to preserve, and rich in nutrition, which is very suitable for the wounded to recover. It is also because of this reason that during the Anti-Japanese War, milk powder was listed as a military supplies by Japan and was a controlled commodity. At that time, major dairy factories in Shanghai were all occupied by Japan.

The price of milk powder in the 1930s is still expensive. Perhaps only when someone in the family gets sick, or has a breastfeeding child and the mother has insufficient milk, they will buy milk powder to drink.

After Chen Qiang became a coachman, his income increased, and he also began to plan to include milk powder in the menu for supplementing nutrition, but before he could implement it, he encountered the National Games.

...

Get back to the point.

Chen Qiang took all his trophy and award certificates, placed them on the table, and then began to sell milk powder.

"This milk powder is rich in protein, dietary fiber, fat, vitamin A, as well as calcium, sodium, iron, zinc, potassium and other minerals and trace elements. These are all good things! The reason why I can run the fastest at the National Games and win this championship is because I drank this Baohua milk powder!"

The customers who watched Chen Qiang may not understand what they said. They didn’t know what dietary fiber, vitamin A and trace elements are used for, but after Chen Qiang, the National Games champion, said it, it sounds so high-end.

After Chen Qiang finished speaking, he picked up the prepared milk powder and drank it all.

"You see, this milk powder is the same as milk, and has the same taste. Moreover, the milk powder is easier to store. If you buy fresh milk, it will deteriorate overnight and you can't drink it. But this milk powder is different. It will be fine if you buy it for a year or two."

Chen Qiang said, took out the milk powder jar, dug a spoonful of milk powder with a spoon, and then brewed a cup with hot water on the spot, and then said: "The most important thing is that our Baohua milk powder is much cheaper than you drink fresh milk. Look at my spoon, I can make such a big cup. If it is fresh milk, it will be impossible to buy such a big cup."

"Today you are here to buy Baohua milk powder, and there are gifts. Buy a can of milk powder, give a milk powder spoon, sell two cans of milk powder, and give a set of high-end porcelain bowls. Look at this porcelain bowl, this is a good product from the serious kiln..."

Chen Qiang said, waving the milk powder spoon and porcelain bowl in his hand.

Manager Hu looked at Chen Qiang who was trying hard to sell, and kept nodding. According to Chen Qiang's sales attitude, the milk powder he brought was probably sold out soon and he was going to the warehouse to pick up the goods.

"This Chen Jian is really good at speaking. The value of these 15 ocean flowers!" Manager Hu thought in his mind, but he still doubted the authenticity of Chen Qiang's identity.

The National Games champion came to help me sell milk powder, which was a bit incredible.

Moreover, this National Games champion is eloquent, verbal and fooling people, and he is simply a natural salesman.

This made Manager Hu feel that Chen Qiang was more like a liar who traveled around the world, and he got a trophy certificate from somewhere to cheat money. Only those who often go around the world can be so sloppy and persuade customers to buy things.

Thinking of this, Manager Hu shook his head slightly: "No matter whether he is true or false, just be able to sell the goods for me! If he is really a fake champion, I will say that I am also a victim and he has deceived me!"
