Chapter 23 - Massive Sales, Infuriating Kevin!

Time flew by quickly. Two days had passed since the last report.

Over the past few days, Shawn had been doing his best to prepare the new product.

In the end, he did not have enough time and could only ask for a few more days of leave from the company.

Initially, Shawn had planned to quit.

After all, how much money could a lowly intern earn?

However, he remembered that he had not dealt with his enemies properly. The hatred from his past and present life could not be easily erased.

Hence, he decided to head to the office after finishing his work.

Fortunately, as long as things were set up properly, it was not difficult to handle.

In addition, with Jeffrey watching over him, Shawn could just leave it to his parents.

Today was the day Shawn's farm brought in the goods.

They were all purslane which Shawn had promised to buy earlier.

Initially, everyone thought that they would not suffer a loss.

However, out of everyone's expectation, a large portion of the goods had failed the quality inspection due to the condition that Shawn mentioned last time.

They were stunned after realizing this.

But they had no choice, this was the agreement in the first place.

Shawn had also said that all of these requirements were Jeffrey's condition.

These people had no way of doing anything against him.

Thus, they could only accept the bitter results.

Soon, Jeffrey arrived in this remote neighborhood with a group of trucks.

He headed straight to New York City with the products that Shawn had prepared in advance.

In order to ensure that the popularity of the product would not decrease, Shawn even let Nina join in and report the entire process from selection to packaging, and even the distribution of the goods.

When the product arrived in New York, Jeffrey began distributing it.

Everyone was staring at Shawn's batch of goods.

The New York Times expert forum even reported the entire process.

All the experts were not optimistic about Shawn's plan.

As for the king of vegetables, Kevin, he had even reduced his prices and gave promotions in advance, doing everything to ensure that Shawn would not succeed.

No matter what, the product distribution was quickly completed.

Time flew as the first wave of purchases began in the morning.

Jeffrey stared hard at the screen.

At this moment, Kate had just sent her child and husband off to work and school respectively. She was now headed to the supermarket to buy today's food.

As a housewife, she was very supportive of Shawn's idea.

Especially during the purslane craze now, she thought that Shawn was the savior who could allow all of New York to eat healthy, delicious purslane.

This was especially after Shawn's noble morals were exposed.

As usual, Kate walked slowly.

She also looked at the live broadcast of the New York Times in disdain.

When she arrived at the supermarket, she saw the large poster at the entrance.

[Shawn's exclusive product, Atonement brand purslane, is on sale now.]

Instantly, Kate was stunned.

She immediately sent a message to the group chat that was made by her community to show support for Shawn.

"Sisters, Shawn's purslane brand has been released!"

"What?" Everyone found this hard to believe.

After so many days of slander by experts, and with competitors doing their best to suppress him,everyone could not help but think that Shawn would not dare to enter the market anymore!

However, they did not expect it to come out so suddenly.

"That's right," Kate said excitedly, snapping the picture of a poster of the neighborhood supermarket.

Everyone went crazy.

"Kate, get me a box."

"Help me buy a box too."

"Me too, me too!"

News of the listing of Shawn's Atonement brand soon spread throughout New York City.

Out of everyone's expectations, this product became the target of everyone's pursuit once it went public.

In a chain restaurant, a customer walked in and asked the boss.

"Boss, do you have Shawn's Atonement brand purslane?"

"What is it? The Atonement brand?" The boss asked in surprise.

"That's right."

"No!" The boss shook his head: "Brother, don't leave yet. Tell me what this thing is. You're already the 20th person to ask this today."

The customer said while shaking his head, "Take a look at the news, read about Shawn's stories and his ideas about his product."

He wanted to go to the supermarket now to buy vegetables and make food himself.

Such scenes played out in various locations in New York.

All the restaurant owners and supermarkets were stunned.

They did not know who Shawn was.

Neither had they heard of this Atonement brand.

As for the news on TV, they only treated it as a joke.

But when the popularity rose, they were surprised to find that this name was too influential.

At first, they did not pay much attention to it, but after asking around,

the places that sold this product treated it as their signature item, and customers also increased by 50% in an instant.

This time, they really panicked.

With the idea of joining if they could not resist the trend, these owners quickly bought the goods.

But the goods were long gone.

The remaining goods on the market were also sold at sky-high prices.

They regretted not joining in earlier.

The vegetable king of New York City, in order to maintain his share of the New York market, wanted to completely eliminate the possibility of Shawn entering this market.

Thus, thousands of tons of purslane were dumped in New York's market.

They were all sold at discounts.

He had thought that this strategy would succeed.

He was prepared to sit in the broadcast room and wait for the good news.

However, he never expected the outcome.

No one bought his products.

When he heard the news, he almost flew into a rage.

In order to make his product dominate New York City, he had invested millions of dollars.

In the end, he was defeated by Shawn, who did not even invest a single cent.

Jeffrey soon received news at the first moment.

He answered the call excitedly.

Jeffrey was almost dumbfounded when he heard the news!

He quickly picked up the phone and called Shawn.

"Sha… Shawn, we've blown up. The popularity has skyrocketed!"

"Take your time to speak," Shawn said calmly.

Jeffrey took a few deep breaths, suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, and slowly said, "The purslane… the first batch of goods had only been on sale for less than half an hour, and they were all sold out."

"Of course, I expected that." Shawn smiled.

The Internet in this world was not as developed as the previous world.

In the previous world, Shawn remembered a classic advertisement story. A famous herbal tea company donated 100 million yuan to their country during a massive earthquake.

Everyone thought the company was stupid.

One had to know that 100 million at that time was an unthinkable sum.

In fact, that company only earned 500 million a year.

This 100 million was equivalent to wasting half a year of work.

Unexpectedly, a piece of news suddenly appeared on the Internet, buying up every bottle of that brand of herbal tea in the supermarket.

When the news got out, the entire country was shocked.

That company's tea sales increased by 175%.

The revenue from that year tripled to a total of 1.5 billion.

In fact, it was growing at a rapid pace even after that.

One could only imagine how important the image of a good company was in this world.

Shawn was using that company as a reference this time.

The netizens at this time were not as complicated as in the previous life.

Naturally, they could not escape from this influence.

Therefore, the massive sale of purslane was inevitable!
