Chapter 4213 Unpopular Gadgets
Qian'er was puzzled, so she took the baggage and opened it, only to find that there were neat and thin pieces of cotton paper inside.
Qian'er naturally recognizes this thing.
The queen mother invented it herself and named it "sanitary napkin".
She said it was more hygienic than menstruation, so she called it this name.
Hygiene means clean.
This sanitary napkin has three layers. The surface is a layer of soft cotton, the inside is covered with thin cotton, and the outermost layer is waterproof oil paper.
Throw it away after use.
In Qian'er's opinion, this is not much different from a menstrual belt, and it cannot be washed or reused, so it is not accepted by most civilian women.
Most importantly, it's expensive.
Common women couldn't afford it, and even women from wealthy families didn't use much.
In addition to the price, there is also acceptance.
Women are used to things like menstrual belts, and if they are asked to change to something else, some feudal conservatives will always jump out and object. After all, in most families, the older women control the family's money and affairs, and it is difficult for the younger women to have the desire to resist.
Most of the old women no longer have the use of this thing.
This becomes an endless loop.
This has also led to poor sales of sanitary napkins.
Qian'er remembered that her mother had been worried about this matter for a few days.
Although she soon gave up worrying about this matter, sanitary napkins became a less popular product in Yunji.
In the eyes of Manager Gu and Manager Gu, only products that can bring huge profits to Yunji are good products.
It wasn't until Qian'er took over Yunji that she discussed with her two uncles and eliminated a large number of products with high investment and low returns.
Among them, sanitary napkins are included.
Originally, she wanted to cut off Xiao Du's contraceptive device, but thinking that her mother liked it very much, she kept it.
Qian'er is a little strange, why there are so many items for children that have been discontinued long ago.
The child smiled and said: "I know your store no longer sells this thing, but I can't live without it. There are many ladies in Kyoto who like it, and the number is not large. Once we add it up, we will spend money to buy it in the store. A production line, not much, but enough for our daily use.”
Qian'er: "...How come I don't know about this?"
You know, she is now the actual controller of Yunji.
The child smiled and said: "This is just a small matter. As the owner of a merchant, you only care about the products that can make a lot of money, so naturally you won't care about it easily."
"Do your uncles know about this?"
"I know, I went to ask Uncle Gu personally." The child smiled and said, "Qian'er isn't angry, right?"
"Hey, this is no big deal, I'm just a little surprised."
Qian'er picked up a sanitary napkin, touched it, and said with a smile, "It's indeed much softer, but it's just too wasteful."
The toddler snorted: "I know you've always advocated saving, but in this case it's really completely unnecessary."
"Okay, okay, you're right." Qian'er said, taking out half of the sanitary napkin, "I'll take it home and try it again."
"Sister!" The child stamped his feet, "I'm going out tomorrow."
"You have a beautiful idea. Do you think that sending troops is just for fun, and you just get on the carriage and leave?" Qian'er also hummed, "Maybe I don't understand court affairs, but I still understand this matter."
Deployment of troops for war is indeed not a matter of just leaving.
